    Serral was unbelievable at Master's colosseum, simply dominated, aside from the one series against Clem. Thank you for uploading! Would you consider casting the Serral vs Cure series? It one of the best series I've seen in a while

    Cannot say enough about how much I enjoy your casting, maybe it's because I'm Australian, but the wealth of knowledge you exhibit each and every time is just amazing to me.
    I fully agree with what you say about Serral always changing his game plan, it's a delight to see him bring out these specific builds and reinventing the game over and over again. Keep up the good work!

      PiG is the goat for commentary.
      Whether is doing more family friendly stuff or weirdo dark humour. GM in all three races means he has a much better understanding of the game than most commentators and on top of that he's super engaging and gets the hype going when the action is high.

    I finally figured it out. Because its really hard to play in Korea as an outsider and vice versa, we should start talking in those terms. Maru is the Korean GOAT and Serral is the non-Korean GOAT. As long as Serral doesnt play GSL and Maru doesnt conquers the world, ppl wont agree on *how* to define "GOAT" equally between them.

    Spoilers:
    25:45 Marus third base burning down, while he was microing one marodeur was a huge blunder that made him gg out (though he was probably dead anyway at this point). Game 3 just wow. Serral had vipers out before Maru had finished combat shield and an ultra cavern before Maru even finished 1/1! I dont know when i saw the last time a zerg teching up that fast!

    • @tigera6
      @tigera6 8 місяців тому

      Serral went with Tech over Upgrade because he want to counter the heavy unit from Maru like Tanks/Libs. He also max out early with cheap units so that he can be safe from any early attack from Terran. This is pretty much the "perfect" way to play ZvT as the only possible weakness is a 2-base all-in but Zerg normally scout that out very well.

      Serral's weakest match up is ZvZ, but it's no means terrible as he is still strong on that front, but if it ever became equal to his ZvP and ZvT that would be pretty much it.
      Serral would be unstoppable at that point.

  • @jefferyharper5720

    I brought up the usage of ravens in ZvT, because the list incinerator fun scans and the ability to cheat creep makes a raven a better choice, especially on larger maps.

      Maru is making a very weird habit of not maxing out his army early, instead slowly building up the late tech units, and whats why hes 20-30 army supply down when Serral push. Cure and Clem normally max out early on their army which let them survive longer.

    You know PiG is the best caster when he adds a savagery warning for the kids at the start of the video (I am pretty sure he guessed the results just from the two playing).
    Serral vs Maru is the most predictable outcome in the history of the game, Serral always stomps Maru out of existence. And even then, Serral plays such amazing games, that even this obliteration looks exiting and fun.
    It's like watching a fight between a middle school kid and Mike Tyson, but with Hollywood effects to make it look amazing.
    At this point anyone that doesn't think that Serral is the GOAT in SC2 is just brain dead, even worse if he thinks it's Maru while Reynor is the only one that can take down Serral at his best.
    #1 Serral. The indisputable GOAT in the game.
    #2 Reynor. The GOAT killer.
    #3 Is irrelevant because they are so far behind the top 2.

    This game starts to get so onesided.. as far as I can remember zerg has always seemed to be so strong early, mid and especially end game that no other race could beat them if played by a top tier player. I think that both Seral and Dark are examples of very good zerg players, so I would absolutly expect them to win some matches but not in the extent that zerg players are doing. It would be intresting to know how common it is that top tier zerg player loses games that goes to late game stages. All games that I can remember ends up in losses for all terran or protos players, and it always ends in this mindnumbingly boring play with endless waves of zergs just grinding everything down in the end, and vipers pulling in the biggest threats and hence grinds down the opponents posibilities to win. Zerg always seem like they outrange everything in endgame with their aoe damage and cc (vipers) so nothing can engage. I get the feeling that it's more a zergs game to lose, than a posibility for other fractions to win.
    Sorry for the whining, just so fed up with seeing zerg always on top.

      This was so one-sided because Maru plays GSL (Korean league). Due to the difference in time between rounds, Koreans have become obsessed with researching their opponents styles and builds (this is why Reynor got curb stomped in the first round of GSL). Serral found a way to use this to his advantage. Knowing Maru would be researching his past games, he purposely used new builds to catch Maru off guard. It was so one-sided because serral was playing 4d chess.
