Maybe even the best player...

If he does win against Stats, he'll have won the GSL vs. The World tournament by beating pretty much the best Terran, Zerg, and Protoss in Korea in back-to-back series, and have more WCS points than the next five or six players on the Circuit. Some people will question it because he didn't beat Maru, but come on, Maru isn't as invincible as it seems, based on his 3-2 against soO and 1-3 against Stats. What will be interesting is the Maru vs. Serral match at the very end of the tournament. It's a Bo1, so it doesn't mean much (anyone can beat anyone in a Bo1), but if Serral does win it, there will be no more questions. Serral will be the best player in the world. If Serral loses, well, people will continue to speculate endlessly about what would've happened in a Maru vs. Serral final series. Debates will rage, but it'll be really hard to argue with Serral's tournament performance.

Currently, I would rank Maru #1, Serral #2 if he beats Stats.

Serral Beat stats in best of 7 and beat maru in a best of 1. Kaze what would you say now?

Geoffrey Stevens if Serral beats maru in a best of 7 then he would be the best player in the world

Doom Day to win* now onto blizzcon

Well u are wrong grrrr, was the first one, and hes a leagend in korean, none korean he is

Josef Blank, he isn't wrong. Grrrr was strong - but he never was 'winning every single WCS major tournament in the entire year, then going to a GSL and winning the event too' strong, not close. There hasn't been a foreigner that I can ever remember, and I have watched the scene for a very long time - that has had the kind of year Serral has. Sure, some of them had great years, won some items, and others - but it wasn't nearly as dominant of a fashion as this.

Idra, Huk, Naniwa, Scarlett

Ethereal Hunterling, with all due respect to those people, no - they weren't this kind of threat that Serral is. Non of them where what might be considered Bonjwa - Serral is. So no, Idra HuK, Naniwa, Scarlett - even at their best were not at such a high level.

babycankles297 3 series ftw

Lol

Louroux HS dont hate to say it but you got smacked in your own house and sat naked on your sofa

And Serral did what Serral does. No weaknesses.

Carpet Climber one close match isn't enough

I feel that's not a close match... It feels that Maru couldn't even fight back, not even one blow...

Thx 👍

but we can say this about other world too thats not the excuse for them

Imagine if Life was still playing.

Kaze hed still be cheating lmao

Keep in mind that Serral does not usually lose to cheese, he can play a defensive yet economic style the moment a quick all in or rush is detected and his previous match vs has in Wcs was good practice for this

NatTech that’s rerarded

pls dont gay

Actually finns were considered non-white for their "mongolian" roots back in the day in USA. So you kind of have a point. Well, even when finns are whiter than the whites in USA :p

If he didn't lose his nerve facing INnoVation and Dark, I don't think he's going to suddenly lose his nerve against Stats. He's well used to the big stages by now, with his current streak of tournament wins and taking down legendary Koreans. If anything, I think Stats is more likely to feel the pressure as Korea's honor is at stake, and he's said already that he doesn't feel too confident against Zerg (and this is when he expected to possibly face Dark).

Cause they are weak and they will be destroyed in the next years. Just wait and see what will happen when more money will be in esports.

Why do progamers say things that end up making them the butt of jokes for ages? Seriously, I don't understand.

who cares if he is foreign or not, serral is good. though i must say, most other foreign players in this tournament are on average weaker than serral and the korean players.

it's not foreigners. it's serral. he's from a planet far away

I suppose it's a bit like boxers who say dumb shit before they get bopped. Koreans sc2 players tend to smack talk. Maybe they're encouraged to. Serral just gets on with it.

insanely good is not enough to describe him... he is just too Serral...

Rogue's been off his game for a few months now, so it's not a good comparison point. But beating innovation 3-0 is sick regardless.

Doom Day where did Dark say it everybody is talking about Dark said something? Please link

Rafael Hungria lol drug boy Serral god, that's laughable, as Maru owns him again and again, Maru=GOD!

lucky for him Maru did not make it to the final.

ikki itsuki Maru isn't taking it seriously until it's the Koreans against the foreigners. Maru owns Serral countless time especially since the latest top tournament WESG where Maru slapped and own Serral!! But those fan boys are pretty funny!!

Do you even maths? Serral > God

@@kcx-kx8qd hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Get the shazam app.

The song is called Shazam - In the App Store.

they have a GSL radio station

Aman Singh singh you high bro

Army of the Night by Amaranthe, the original song is from Powerwolf

yeah, just like we knew the results when Maru made it to the Bizzcon grand finals....

ZvZ has always been the best mirror match. It goes ZvZ > TvT > PvP. It's a knife fight in a telephone booth, man. How can you not be entertained?

I never liked ZvZ when it was all Ling-Bane on 1-2 Hatcheries, but this stuff is entertaining as hell! I still think TvT is the best (always was).

ZvZ has always been the worst. TvT has always been the best mirror match, SPECIALLY in Broodwar, the best RTS game of all time

There is an observer, who is actually Shine, the pro from StarCraft broodwar. The casters have no control over which areas of the map and situations in the match are seen

Yeah I realized that with the time. The casters are good regardless. My only bother is how in korea tournaments the "show hp and energy bar" option is disabled. But in Montreal tournament is on. I prefer it on of course but I guess thats upto the observer.

yes LOL

Because korean girls are plastic

Andrew 😂😂😂😂😂

I don't get it. ??

You're not old enough to understand then o.O

Is it anything sexual?

HAHAHAHAHAHA That was too funny man

Amaranthe: Army of the night

thx :)

the original is from powerwolf - army of the night

what year do we have? is your shazam not working or is there something else going on with you?

Tarek Drissi no shit sherlock

wahhmann123 calm yourself its a joke

zerg imba, won again :-(

Not true in ZvZ zerg has a 50% winrate.

Oof

J Aleen Interviews with an audience is obviously not his thing.
