Not sure how Dark vs Maru GSL Finals exceeded expectations but here we are!! Proud of this cast as well, put extra effort into following the action (in the mid/late game) and think it went well. Thanks for watching

I must admit to a little bit of ignorance on my part, for the fact that I don't know the significance of the word "Maru" in the Korean language. I do, however, know that in Japanese, the word "Maru" means "circle", and is a common suffix for names. Which I think is perfect, for 2 reasons: 1. Maru, much like the circle, is a "well rounded" player; he has great micro, great macro, he can play bio, he can play mech, he can be aggressive with the best, and he can turtle all day long. 2. "maru" often appears at the end of names, where as Maru often appears at the end of major and premier tournaments. So, for those of you at home, just remember; in Japan, "Maru" ends names; but in Korea, "Maru" ends games.

Y'all Maru is so goddamn good at this game I gotta at least suggest he might be a borg infiltrator. He was fighting like three engagements at one point, microing marines and tanks and medivacs and defending his bases. Dark, to his credit, lives up to his reputation as the final boss, but if anybody was going to play protagonist and bring him down it was Maru.

Fun games, but I wouldnt say game of the year, or 'best finals' personally. Part of it is just Maru in general being such a stock standard known quantity. He wins when he is allowed to play his game his way... and he did. Dark failed to throw him off, and got squished. Kind of the reverse for Dark, he's so fun to watch because he does wacky stuff, and here we see more standard builds that just dont quite come together.
