    Roughly one year ago, when Serral dismantled Maru, somebody said:
    "Serral makes Maru look like somebody I could beat."
    Well, the same was true on Sunday.
    And his dominance is even more impressive, if we look at other high level Terran vs Zerg matches in this series.
    Name 3 other great zerg players beside Serral: Dark, Rogue, Reynor - I guess most will pick some from these names.
    Name 3 great Terrans - Maru, Clem, Olivereia - at least the first 2 will probably be an autoinclude for everybody.
    And if we take a look: Clem took out Rogue, Maru took out Dark and Olivereia took out Reynor.
    So the 3 best Zerg got all elimanted by Terran.
    ONLY if we include Serral into the count does Zerg gets a score on the board.
    -> It definitly is not Zerg that is OP. It is Serral.
    Without Serral, Terran would have dominated this tournament.

      Yeah which is why the balance team are sitting snickering rubbing their hands wondering how to buff terran or nerf zerg, now, to send zergs home outta the price pool again just because terran and their legacy of buffs and supportive nerfs never had anyone impressed by their (inject eco, inject attack speed, tier 1 stutterstep a-move-cancer) gameplay.

      The scouting was everything. Maru's scouting was shit. He let lings just walk into his base and kill everything cuz he didn't have a single marine patrolling the attack paths to see them coming. The entire game would've gone different if Maru could scout worth a damn.

      Agreed. I don't even like Maru, but I felt so bad for him. The stupid GOAT debate makes it all about him vs. Serral, and that's a comparison no one has a chance in (at least, for the last few years). Maru's real accomplishments get overshadowed by the debate, and the stubbornness of his fans makes people annoyed. I wish SC2 had silver and bronze medals - that way, reaching number 2 and number 3 would be more celebrated. This would help spread the love around and make the scene more vibrant and nuanced.

      Clem is our Spider-Man
      Even though Reyno can't face Serral, I want Reyno to fight the Korean instead of Serral
      TYTY and MAXPAX have the potential to become the strongest
      Serral is clearly the final boss of SC2
      Another factor is that Maru is on the other side of the world, he was very tired when he came to Europe
      however Serral had just returned so it was only fair

      Oliveira is on the same team as Serral and they practice a LOT together. When they started out Oliveira said he lost 20 in a row, had an overall record of 10-227 or something like that. But they played more and more and trained with each other and grinded it out and he identified this one small timing window of slight vulnerability in serral's game, and that's why he goes for this octorax/8rax timing push to the 3rd, cutting workers and doing a massive tank/marine push at like 8:30 - and this is what won him two maps.
      On Alcyone, when Serral committed to the breakout attack, he actually had enough to beat the army he saw - the problem is Oliveira had another 20-30 supply right behind serral's vision / scouting range, so Serral got tricked once.

      I don't think is fair or even necessary to compare players of different sports. Serral is great and undeniably the goat of SC2, but many sports have had very dominating figures. E.g., Alexander Karelin in wrestling. Happy has dominated WC3 for the last few years. Rapha is probably the god of Quake - he has won 16 major tournaments and countless others ever since 2008. His one-sided dominance might be one of the reasons arena shooters aren't as popular in esports as other shooters - he just makes it too one-sided, lol.

  • @ruizhang4609
    @ruizhang4609 6 місяців тому +1

    You can compare the match between Oliveira and Serral. At the 8:30 mark, Oli's 160 supply "full-force punch" (with at least 3 tanks and infantry units) is already halfway across the map and on the way to the Zerg's base. However, Maru often only has around 130 supply at the 8:30 mark, applying much less pressure on Serral in the early game. Perhaps his shoulder injury prevents him from executing high-intensity pressure on the Zerg in the early stages.

      zerglings are cheap early unit. But it was fast and powerful enough even in early game terran has to play "the floor is lava". do you have any idea how many matches I saw if terran send their units out in early game without medivac, artosis would cast "those units are so dead" and he usually right. zergling speed and damages and also baneling ( so intsead of just one bane, player need to use two do destroy svc now?) not to mention health left make the easy picking for zerglings.
      let me give another example: if terran disable colossus, in order to destroy it terran unit have to go in and fight other units stand shoulder to shoulder with to colossus.
      abducts on the other hands takes a unit and throw them to your army group.
      Anyway I'm going to say this (and this isn't even my word - but from someone who is knowledgeable in the game): SC1 - as imbalance as it might be - the controls limit it. SC2, now the imbalances (not only in stat, but by design) multiplies.
      Artosis own word in one of his videos are ( taking about bane patch) zerg is a race that attack moves and win. Now it still attack move and win, just with baneling has less hp.

    People in the comments thinking Serral would dominate in GSL. GSL is completely different. Serral knows he can't afford to play all those online tournaments and he never plays them. The reason he dominates is because he plays zerg (the race that can afford to play the same mapped out game 1000 times in a row and win), and because he only gets to play people like Maru twice a year. Oliveira is on the same team as Serral, so he gets to play him more, and we saw their series was equal. No, Serral can't dominate in GSL the same way he dominates these one-offs. Maru can. That's a completely different level of achievement.

      You Terran mains always cry and cope in the comments. Serral's 75% win rate against Maru is no coincidence neither are his accomplishments vs any player. He is literally the best statistical player of all time and it is not even close. Reason why he doesn't join GSL is because he has to spend a lot of time in Korea and it doesn't fit his lifestyle since he likes talking walks and playing golf and whatever farm boys do in their free time. Every single Korean he has faced has always had the time to prepare against Serral yet they always have a losing win rate against him. There is no excuse I do not care. Sure GSL is different but I have yet to see a single Koreans dominate the game like Serral has for 6 years now. He wins almost everything he participates in and is always the favorite to win by a wide margin. Look at his rating and he is literally leagues above any Zerg. He has 3999 against Protoss, 4000+ against Terran and 3600 against Zerg. The people below him statistically are Maru, Maxpax, Clem and Dark in that order, yet they are still far below Serral. Serral is a league of its own. No Zerg is as good as him. Dark is 5th right now and is also way below Maru and Clem who are both Terrans. Terrans always cry they have been doing so since the beginning of the game.

      @@2nerC9 that's because you don't understand how terrans and zergs came to be. No doubt Serral is the best zerg player, but you can't compare what he has to do to win with what terrans need to do to win. Terran was designed in the same fashion any RTS games of the time were designed; you have a natural production cycle roughly reflecting how human production works in real life. Then the designers sat down and started inventing insane spells and mechanics for the other two races. That's why basic rules of RTS don't always apply to zerg or protoss, with zerg being able to go to 80 drones in 3 minutes, etc. Terran is predictable, with slow linear ramp-up of production and economy and limited opportunities for suprise. Zerg can throw down a fake third and go build 100 roaches that you can't do anything against unless you scout it immediately and do the exact right thing. All Serral has to do is play the same game he practiced 10000 times perfectly, and he wins. No terran can ever just play standard, they need to come up with new inventive and unique builds every tournament, and not show them until the finals. It is not a level playing field in the slightest, and you can't compare Serral's domination with any terran simply because domination like that is not possible with terran no matter how much better you are than everyone else.

      ​​​@@alk672so much copium 😂 if T is "harder" to play, why don't T players switch to a different race and earn the easy money? moreover, why was the last world championship finals a TvT (Oliveira vs Maru)? why does this year's world championship (EWC) have 9 Terrans, 5 Zergs and 4 Protoss? repeat: there are as many Terrans qualified in the tournamemt as Z and P _combined_. can you explain that?

      well depends. I think its the fact that Zerg in Korea play very different than Serral and Maru doesn't seem prepared whenever he faces him but then Terrans are dominating GSL. Serral is an animal.

    This looked like the same game 4 games in a row - with Maru getting killed by a sharp timing every game. The commentators were right he should have tried a turtle, he did put on pressure and kill drones in most of the games, he just couldn't hold the sharp timings.
    Felt like he tried the same strat 4 times.

    • @ruizhang4609
      @ruizhang4609 6 місяців тому

      You can compare the match between Oliveira and Serral. At the 8:30 mark, Oli's 160 supply "full-force punch" (with at least 3 tanks and infantry units) is already halfway across the map and on the way to the Zerg's base. However, Maru often only has around 130 supply at the 8:30 mark, applying much less pressure on Serral in the early game. Perhaps his shoulder injury prevents him from executing high-intensity pressure on the Zerg in the early stages.

    It's funny to think that to finish the debate once and for all about who is the GOAT of Starcraft2, Serral would have to go to korean territory and win the GSL... That would be the greatest achievments in gaming history: Beating the first nation who made gaming a possible substainable job, on the game that made it all possible. Just imagine...

      Serral already won gsl twice against the world, it is not the same but he beat all the Koreans in an epic final with stats and in that same year he won blizcon again against stats

    • @kathorsees
      @kathorsees 6 місяців тому +5

      He doesn't need to win GSL to be the goat. It's a silly idea, tbh. The debate is over. Serral has a winning score against every player in the GSL. All the players from the GSL come to international tournaments and lose to Serral. Maru, the best GSL has to offer, has been 4-0'd again and again by Serral. Saying GSL has any significance for the GOAT debate when the GOAT has been consistently beating GSL players for 8 years now is comical and absurd. It's the skill, the players and the matches between them that count in SC2, not the organizing company, the country, or the name of the tournament.

    it always gives a shock being reminded that south korea forces it's citizens to serve in the military. every time i hear that when i'm trying to be a starcraft nerd it's like a little reality check. like "shit, that's right not all of the world is as free as me"
