@@Jamano244 Because they are 5v5 MOBA games. It is expected that they will be more popular than Starcraft, a 1v1 game. Less social, more stress, greater skill required, more mechanics and strategy. As someone who has played both genres a lot, I would say that what Starcraft I BroodWar managed to achieve in the 2000s is much more than what Lol and Dota have achieved so far.
@@Catholic-Redpilled-Spaniard Its definitely not at the same level it was back in the WoL and HotS days. It still has a following, but I'd say probably not a top 20 esport right now (in terms of popularity). There is a desperate need for SC3.
This tournament was the tipping point, after which the casters finally got the memo that Serral was the #1 StarCraft 2 player in the world. But during the game, they don't quite realize it yet... Unlike a lot of other human beings, Serral seems to be relentless about learning from his mistakes. From IEM Katowice 2018, he seems to have realized that the only remaining major weakness in his game was dying to cheese. So he probably went home and played 1000 reps against every kind of cheese there was. He was downing cheddar, American, gruyure, blue, Swiss, you name it. That cannon rush of SoS was doomed from the moment he decided he was going to try it. There is a fine balance between underreacting to aggression and overreacting, and I think Serral realized he needs to lean slightly towards overreacting and relying upon his godlike macro to keep him from falling behind economically. Now that he's got the machine calibrated he's put the rest of the SC2 world on notice.
SC2 entertainment is like, 50% awesome gameplay, 25% the banter between the casters and 25% the cringe you get from the aspberger players in the unintentional hilarious interviews and emotionless forced celebrations.
It doesn't help that they use the hottest Korean on earth. These guys only see girls like that on the Internet. Oh I guess she's not the one they usually use. Still.. They'd probably think she's out of their league.
@@greenjello66 Let me remind you about Legendary grubby and his beautifull wife, miss of Singapure ! Some nerds can get stuff done....Well he's the father of orcs, its only expected of one...
Serral haters know Serral has skills, so much skill he dominates that is why they hate him. They are not willing to admit it by either diminishing or denying it like saying Zerg is OP (when completely ignoring the feats of Maru, Ty and Stats), it doesn’t count if he doesn’t play GSL code s, or has not earned the top prize pool. 🙄
Sir Bearicus it was just a quick group math, the win/loss doesn’t mean anything and often gamers don’t hand shake. It’s not some big set up and intro like the playoffs.
Serral shows you how to counter that cheese style. Check out Serral vs the cheese master himself HAS in the WCS Valencia 2018 grand final. Hint: all that cheese cannon rushing didn’t work.
that was like if Tyson fought an infant.
Serral: "Maru is best player in the world, but I'm not too worried:" We have a badass over here.
now it's
Serral: "Serral is best player in the world, but I'm not too worried:".
i think he means that hes not nervous and will play like he always will.
I feel that Serral is the boogie man of Esport, that Korean parents use to keep their children well behaved...
lol nice
It's Sur-real how well he plays. *sigh
bronze tier protoss versus diamond tier zerg GG :D SoS and Has has figured out that best protoss unit is photon cannon
I love that there's still a scene for SC2 competitive
Still? Starcraft II is the most viewed 1v1 esport on planet earth and the 4th most watched (After LOL and DOTA2, which dont count really)
@@Catholic-Redpilled-Spaniard Why do LoL and DotA2 not count?

Artosis and Tasteless are here, my ears already feel better. Go Serral, steamroll this WCS!
>excited to see match :D
>sees video length D:
That canon rush defense was brilliant.
How to eat cheese, courtesy of Serral
Hahaha nice one
SOS played like I play on ladder :(
I wish I played on ladder as good as sOs :)
It´s true though
So you get stomped by clean Zergs a lot? Or just Serral (2018). :P
why isthe video so short? that's not good
Minh Nguyen lol
Serral Rocks
24 minutes I thought this was one game lol
Was SOS paid to lose this match or something? This was not his level of play..... Not saying Serral isn't amazing.
That was a terrible cannon rush, he shouldve walled off with 3 pylons
Nah man, Serral just makes you look bad.
Well, play against Serral to answer your question sir
He's just trash if the cheese doesn't work.
but this was bad cheese, or maybe he could not make good cheese on those maps
this video goes to players who still think has has no skill

Serral smirk and laugh and no hand shake haha what a savage!
Artosis curse strikes again.
sOs hiding build?
Why are they not wearing the white noise headphones? Aren't the english speaking players gonna hear relevant pieces of information from the casters?
Alexandru-Rudi Mățău They can't hear the casters.
"OOOOH what a sick baneling trap plan"
Sos: ...
On a side note wtf is that earring Tasteless?
i miss sos!
no hand shake?? hhhmm
I really hope he just forgot but still, that bugs me
Sir Bearicus it was just a quick group math, the win/loss doesn’t mean anything and often gamers don’t hand shake.
It’s not some big set up and intro like the playoffs.
Is the serie ongoing currently or is it like a re upload of some older matches ?
Theo Gourlin ongoing
Blizzcon, the gobal finals. Make sure to tune in next friday
I really doubt about Serral, he has a robot's voice .. there is a trap behind it..
ALL HAIL THE NIGHT KING!
No handshake... Not very sporting. Especially after the lack of respect shown in that first game by trying to cheese.
Belolth They most likely did after the cut.
Also, cheese is basically sOs style. Not as hard as Has, but still
serrals Z play is extremely scary
What a trashing.
Easy Win 🌀
I hate it when players build turrets in front of my base -_-
Serral shows you how to counter that cheese style.
Check out Serral vs the cheese master himself HAS in the WCS Valencia 2018 grand final.

Ladies and gentlemen, i give u yet another god v also ran! Enjoy. Totally pwned, haha.
Lol sos always smile
Inc on troll
danggg!!
하스랑 김유진 한번떳으면
Serral Good
Looks at length of video and SOS cheese failure confirmed!
SOS is trash, can't win w/o cheese.
You mean he can't win with cheese
yay... i love red zergs and blue terran/protoss instead of blue zergs (so ugly)
roach op
Bahahahahah 🤣
WOW! I am early
sOs leave starcraft plz. I think it was diamond league protoss who win only on luck 60% pvp 50% pvt 7% pvz :D
JESUS CHRIST RETURNS, REPENT OF SIN AND CHANGE YOUR WAY OF L.I.V.ING

Serral is only god in our universe, we don't need jebuses
Zombie returns? No, he promised but lied!
Every time I see you post this on a starcraft video from now on, I will deface a Bible. Just stop, nobody is interested.
