Actually I rewatched it twice, -- good game. I think it was more that Maru out-attritioned Hero and Hero started starving for Vespene Gas just after ~12:00. (You can see around the 11:00 mark, Hero has 4215/2304, has a slight economic edge, and army sizes are pretty even.)

Have never played any MP Starcraft, but will always stay subbed to this channel. Artasteless have just grown on me and your selections are just *chef's kiss*. And you don't spam my inbox!
Really do wanna see Maru make some widow memes, even two or three can do massive amounts of damage to interceptors if you target fire them well enough, though I guess he doesn't want his army to get hit by the mines splash. God I love watching Maru play.
I always wonder why the thors are in high impact mode instead of javelin to swoop away the interceptor swarm But then I say to my self "they are the pro's, they know it better"
Lol. In this GSL this was the only Best of 3 in the group stage that Maru actually won. He lost against Creator, lost against Dark and also lost against DRG if I remember correctly. Or maybe it was another Terran player in the group...
You threw your entire tech tree at me? Sorry bro, Marines exist. Heh, better luck next time :^) I never thought I'd see Starcraft get to the point where end-stage Reign of Chaos was more enjoyable to watch.
Oh boy, this kinda shows how powerless zerg and protoss can feel fighting into a fortified T position. Thors just have no real counter (maybe the immortal a bit, but that one sucks vs bio) and ghost is the ultimate powerhouse vs both other races. Meh.
Zealots, DT's, Immortals, Void Rays, and Disruptors are all great vs Thors. Immortals aren't really that great vs Toss. Maru's just that damn good with his control. Zerg have a much tougher time than Protoss.
@@ZC.Andrew I disagree. Disruptors are good vs thors, that's correct, zealots and DTs suck. Melee units just don't have the surface area except in low number fights. Void rays are so-so. If the thors are accompanied by batches of marines, void rays are pretty bad and because they get outranged badly by thors, if they fight, they're all in. Disruptors can be zoned with ranged libs, as can immortals.
@@asdfasdf-mn8iu Well, I mean you said Thors have no real counter. They do. When properly supported by Libs/Mines/PFs/Ghosts/bio etc... sure, they're strong. But their main strength is their AA. You don't usually see pro's building Thors against Robo/Gateway-heavy Toss. You saw what happened to those Thors when he switched from Skytoss to his ground pounder army.
@@ZC.Andrew No, that's exactly the problem: BC and Thors are allrounders that are very strong vs ground and air both. Thors have supreme AA, but they easily hold their ground vs a ground army as well, especially if not specifically countered. It's not like you can get caught by surprise by enemy army comp with thors, the only thing that will hardcounter them is mass immortals. Zealots, stalkers, archons, tempests, carriers all fall flat vs thors. And in this game the thors mostly lose if they're up against much more army supply or in a much worse situation.
I'm not a good player at starcraft, but the protoss player, keeping goin n goin n goin on the same point over and over and over, without going on the side of the map to kill the south base for exemple, is not really efficient. After Maru....well it's Maru.... i'll never win against him for sure, but checking whats going on.....makes me annoyed
Sure, Maru is maybe the GOAT, but jesus, his games are so boring. I really don't like that ultra defensive, turtling, style from Maru and Serral. Aggressive players are more fun to watch. Dark, Rogue, MaxPax, Clem, Trap, players like these are always fun to watch.
I honestly love his style, it’s so interesting to see him turtle up, play the efficiency game and eventually whittle down his opponent. Really shows what the full capabilities are of Terran as a race. Its very different from other Terran players and it being unique makes it interesting. If this turns into the meta of course the games might be more stale, but for now it’s still quite novel and he’s one of the only players able to execute this style.
@@SC2HL Of course, Maru's (and Serral's) miraculous defenses and "never die" style is great, and there was great games, and he is one of the tenets of new metas. But seems that all his games follow the same pattern: 1 - If the opponent doesn't fall apart from a early aggressive attack, then 2; 2 - Turtle up, absorb all his attack, then grow to a 30 min long late game.
@@beelot1511 not to defend anyone but the point you are making is absolutely trash. Obviously hes way worse. U still can critic a playstyle u dislike for it being boring even if you are no Match to him
Is it just me, or is Terran too good? The protoss seemed really soft. If a dozen carriers can't do it, what can? Stalkers seemed like the best use of resources, which doesn't seem right at all. Also, do ghost's have EMP? That's interesting, but maybe too efficient. The nuke seemed underpowered. And medivacs should only heal what's inside, obviously.
they literally said hero didnt have the right comp, either too many tech units or too many tier 1 units. I do have to agree though that protoss is in a rough spot. Not certain if it is because there aren't many very good protoss players (just creator looking like he might become a beast) right now or that protoss needs a buff for the highest level.
@@makuntizichi7148 high tier units should basically always outclass lower tier units, but diverse compositions should be best. It just seemed like everything he had was bad. Zealots, immortals, archons, etc. They all seemed basically ineffective. I didn't really see anything that Maru did that was better than the other player, it seemed like one team was just better than the other. Also, the way the marauders we're able to clean up at the end seems suspicious. It's somewhat unrelated, but I wonder if Terran units should burn down when they get into red HP? I was thinking that was what happened just like the caster said. 🤣 I just noticed your name.
Lmfao this was probably one of the fewest of the few videos under which you could post this comment Hey, y'know what, I'll take it as a compliment for Maru!
I love how the title implies that Maru himself is taking on the carriers, not his army.
Always difficult to decide what to title the video
Very appropriate title, Maru is the 4th race.
Maru is Terratron confirmed

Ikr I had the same reaction like "wtf!!"
hahahaha the completely genuinely flabbergasted reaction from tastosis lol
Nice to see that sc2 is still alive. Can't wait to get off deployment and play it again!
U military?
We need to get players together and form a team for the esports tournament in the military
Whats your gamer tag. Also what race do you prefer

Maru played immaculately the whole game. The part where he was dodging disrupter shots at the end was some of the best micro I've ever seen
13:47
Maru: I have bunch of Thors.
herO: I have one immortal.
Maru: RETREAT! RETREAT!
herO: and some DTs.
Man HerO is impatient with tempest. He had no oracle for tag, he goes in with his army instead of tempest sniping. What a way to throw a skytoss army.
thor had have same range as tempest. maru could chase and emp everything lol.
Is it another game where Protoss spend 20mins building the "golden" Amanda and see it do nothing to the opponents? Something just never change
Pretty much, Protoss is a boring race to watch in SC2 compared to SC:R. I rather watch ZvZ London fight lmfao.
Spain "First time?"
Actually I rewatched it twice, -- good game.

whenever I try to do anything like this as terran the carriers just mow me over
Probably cause the protoss you fight have more carriers, Her0 had too many workers, therefore less army supply.
If you do all the upgrades on the aircrafts the carriers become supper bad ass

One day there will be a pro game where mass carriers actually win against Terran or Zerg.
there already are plenty but protoss still needs disruptor/archon as ground support to win ;)
@@bongkem2723 find me a game on this channel that has mass carriers wins. Feels as though most seem to lose.

It's been awhile since I've watched one of these starcraft battles and i forgot how much fun it is.
For a moment it seemed as if Protoss had a chance. I guess more nerfs is required!
Nah come on man Protoss needs a win for once lol
You fucking kidding me right? GSL Ro6 got ZERO Terran, 2 Toss and 4 Zerg, yet you want to complain? Like WTF?

Wow! Amazing gamers, incredible game :) thank you for cast :)
Maru face always be like : do i have to play this game in my entire life
So many of the interceptors died to the storms!
"A Thor is being made"
Que Pacific Rim main theme
14:08 hahahahh you never end to learn about SC2 i didnt know that too
I just want Protoss to win some games ;_;
To be fair, this was against the 4th race, Mari.
There are no Terrans in the finals. Maru was out. What are you talking about?
@@jonirojonironin5353 yeah, it's zergcraft

Ghost is like really really anti protoss
Maru is terran god lol
Bravo
i love maru :D
Do the blue circles that Terran is putting down slow enemy units? Is it radar? What does that do?
not enough carriers 25 is unkillable
Woo
damn, hero really sloppy with the micro tho
Let'sss goooo!!! FIRST ONE HERE!!!!
Lol and this game after so many years is balanced?
All this game did, once again, is show how stupidly overpowered EMP is to be able to take 50%+ Health from multiple units in one shot.
Psi storms literally can one shot half of Terran. All the health the emp damages automatically recovers.
Tastosis is the best commentator team. Retire everyone else
Мару красавчик!👍
PvT is the best matchup
