Instant replay and slow-mo analysis of Serral's post-game facial expression was top tier content suitable for ESPN. Is this a sign that Harstem is ready for the big leagues?
Spoilers I think Maru is back to his Pre-Slump levels, he was the WTL team Winter MVP, and now has beaten Clem, Serral and Dark in this series winning 6 games and losing 1
3:00 "I think this map pool is very terran favored". Except for all ranks on all regions of the ladder. Just look at the actual numbers. 49.58% for T on TvZ, 46.55% for T on TvP this season, last season was 49.59% and 46.82%. Actual data show Z > P > T [correction: P>Z>T with little exceptions, like KR GM, where Z>T>P].
He is not talking about some ladder games but about professional e-sport. There is a huge difference between the two and it is very well possible that something is imbalanced with one while perfecctly balanced in the others. Example for a unit: The Carrier was overpowered in the lower leaks. In general, skytoss is very strong. However, on the highest level? Serral had 0 problems beating skytoss. Because on the highest level skytoss was relatively weak.
@@wedgeantilles8575 you're right about pro and ladder statistics being different. It's just a fact that protoss have less success than the other races in the highest competitive scene. But is also a fact that we have a lot of player on the ladder (maybe 200.000), and perhaps 100 pros in the whole world? The data for the ladder have high statistic confidence, and shows P>T>Z (t and z changes order in some in some seasons/ranks), and the balance data for the pro scene (think aligulac) has low confidence because of the low number of players. It is perfectly possible that the top protoss players are simply not as good as maru, serral, dark, rouge and clem, or it may be unbalanced, we can't know. Statistically speaking we CANNOT say that protoss is weak. The ladder already favours protoss substantially, making it even stronger only make sense if you ignore the ladder and the 100s of thousands of players there. Saying "this map pool is very terran favored" is bullsh?t.
@@terranzoid low rank protoss still use templar or kolloss, low rank terran dont use ghost or raven... its just that protoss is absolute garbage without using more complicated units, the low ranks dont adapt. using those to claim its imbalanced is retarded as fuck.
Trigger is probably the worst player in this tournament. In game 1 losing 20 probes to one Lib in pro scene and in game 2 missing two medivacs drop when his prism should have caught it for him.
yea the same thing came to my mind when “his dog barked“. like for real, do you (is it even called you when you talk to an AI?) really think anyone is going to fall for this cheap trick ma(i)xpa(i)x?!1? maybe those sub 70 IQ ppl harstem talked about earlier, do fall for this crap but cmon, you can do better especially as an AI 🤖 and everybody knows that when harstems door bell rang he actually turned on the ma(i)xpa(i)x AI 🥱🥱🥱 u 2 can do better, much better than that, sir mr. captain harstem🧑✈️
MaxPax tuning in is very much appreciated
Thanks for your service, kind sir.

harstem did serral dirty with the slow motion disappointed face expression 😆
Classic vs Cure 3rd game, blink stalkers failing to kill the tank in the natural is one of the saddest things I seen in pro game lately.
forest gump, the guy from the chocolates
yo i know you said you think it’s lazy but i wouldn’t mind a “highlighted” game from the long stream on the harstemcast channel
did we ever figure out what Classic saw
It's pretty weird cuz usually 1080p is pretty clear but I see it too. Watching this on my phone tho 🤷♂️
But great games for sure! 🙂
Maybe because he is re streaming a stream instead of streaming a replay.
Yes he is using a feed provided by the tournament and it’s not always the best, but better than nothing!
Makes sense

maybe we need a split balance patch for e-sports and gm and top masters & one for all the ranks below

Why is Harstem talking with an AI? Maxpax is an AI. No one has ever seen that person. His voice also sounds AI-generated.
yea the same thing came to my mind when “his dog barked“. like for real, do you (is it even called you when you talk to an AI?) really think anyone is going to fall for this cheap trick ma(i)xpa(i)x?!1?
maybe those sub 70 IQ ppl harstem talked about earlier, do fall for this crap but cmon, you can do better especially as an AI 🤖

The dog? That was MaxPax mining his minerals cuz he is a probe
@@lysy-zn2gg actually he wasn‘t mining minerals, he was getting some casual purple gazzz
every 5 mins your video plays an AD bro, I get you gotta pay bills but dang, I think YT controls that but still wild 5 mins, right on the spot.
u gotta watch live then
It's mostly YT. Watch on twitch instead.
