Reynor is famous for taking those super seriously! But in all fairness, Solar vs Rogue will be pretty interesting. Rogue should be capable of all the same shenanigans DRG did vs Solar. On the other hand, Rogue got styled on by Dark, and I'd normally rate Solar over Dark in ZvZ atm (despite his loss vs DRG shaking that belief). | ||

Me: 1. Maru 2. Clem 3. herO 4. Dark 5. Serral 6. Cure And then I think a bunch of players below that are roughly equal. Honestly expecting Serral to still be good but not uh championship-winning form. Then I think Maru and Clem are going to be the two best players but Maru will have the edge in TvT. | ||

Isn't Serral still able to practice a decent amount? I expect him to still be in great form, he wasn't the kind of player who grinds 8h/day anyway | ||

We'll find out from interviews soon. | ||

I expect him to still be in great form, he wasn't the kind of player who grinds 8h/day anyway In the one match Serral played (vs Coffee) he looked a bit sloppy in the first game and crushed the second game. I would imagine that even if Serral's level is still high, only playing 1 competitive match for months would make him a bit shaky in tournament play. That being said, Kato Serral was a monster - probably one of the single highest peaks we've seen of anyone in SC2. Serral at 90% of his Kato form would still be a slight favorite to win. | ||

Every time I give him any credit he loses. Losing this way is such a Solar thing to do. I talked about Solar and his awful time in Proleague in this article: https://tl.net/forum/starcraft-2/562437-the-good-the-bad-and-ridiculous-of-proleague-pt-1 | ||

E: lol, ouch. That was brutal. The reason Nydus didn't work that well vs Stats is clearly that he needed more queens. | ||

It really is. I've been watching this game far too long to actually believe Solar would win. | ||
