You're the best caster. No one else adds as much insight.

PiG is the Serral of casting. There are certainly other casters I also like, but there's just no contest. The analysis, historical context, humor, just everything. GOAT

What I like about your casting in the massive amount of explanations. It really helps understanding the game and thus increasing the fun of watching.

I thought Maru had pulled off the slickest move in that game when he repaired the Medivac that had been parasitic bombed, and then Serral says "Hold my beer", and EMP's all Maru's ghosts with that neural parasite. Well played, sir, well played.

Serral with the infestor EMP is just *chef's kiss*

The amount of strategic insights added is insane, this requires hard work and preparation! High quality casting 💯

Love the passion you have for the game, the joy that came through when you were analysing the plays in this match-up was infectious! Great stuff.

Nice video! Loved the random beatboxing at 42:24

Great Series, Great Cast!

PiG's constant OCD selection of the mineral line workers though 😂

Always great to see Serral matches 😁

interesting how the game3 analysis by PiG was so different than Lowko's video even though they are both looking at the exact same game. Pig favored Maru alot more but to Lowko it was clear Serral was in control the whole game and just overwhelming maru

Great analysis as always. GG

GGs, and fantastic casts!

no where to run, no where to hide! its game over man!!!! - i love the emotion in ur casts pig, cracks me up!!

That Maru run through the lower bracket was epic

32:16 This is the third time I watch someone cast this game on youtube, but the others also failed to realise what Serral did there in time. So it´s not just PiG.

Gotta love the boomer Aliens reference that kids will never get.

You're a really good caster.

The only thing i like more than seeing a Terran struggle is a prime rare steak !

19:20 Such an early gg

man, the way you comment the game is like reading it from a book! Incredible meta game understanding!

I really enjoy pig’s casting style

Starcraft is basically just a story about how Aliens and Humans have to drive back the inevitably all-consuming swarm of bugs.

36:51 im just noting those 156 zerglings in production.

37:58 - "...the SCV's realizing they've been working for the Wayland Corp..." Lmao. Worst job ever. The workers on that mineral line that's been attacked like five times in a row

haha. remember WOL and HOTS days when maps were tiny and zergs were losing. Now maps are enormous and every game ends up at 200/200 and zergs are crushing. Makes me want to come back and play again.

This puts the goat debate to bed.

2018 ABSOLUTEY begs to differ lmao, it did not matter how far serral was behind, he would pull a rabbit out of a hat every. Single. Time.

51:41 maru fanboys no excuses please LOL🤣🤣

Maru not gg-ing at 7 workers in game 1 was some 4d chess. Like trying to throw serral off of his game by disrespecting one of the greatest players of all time. Definitely greatest foreigner. It didnt matter in the end, but that was a solid move imho

I've thought the Raven was a good investment for clearing creep, because the saved energy can go to mules, and terran needs the extra income early.

Regarding color choice, most people play with color blind mode on, I would think?

How good is the Midnight Oil reference!

Midnight oil reference? Fuck it, have a like.

Clem with better multi tasking and micro than maru? Uh... what? Did I just hear that sentence?

Finland here. Suomi täällä moi! I am Silver II in Starcraft II Ranked currently.

Serral, please just stop doing this, don't make it look so easy against Maru, think about his fanboys. The GOAT is just out of reach for the mortals. Also, great cast once again. You are easily one of the best casters.

Maru showing why he needs to considered one of the top 5 of his era! He tested Serral a few times in this series.

Narrator: Player goes for it... players always like to lock on his opponent and beat them in the front... player taps out.

Serral is so adaptive and original...

starcraft BW n00b here... does a none upgraded ling beat a none upgraded marine in sc2?

How come the game starts with 1-0?

zerg is overpowered

Oof serral is just way too good for this world. I think Maru is amazing but serral is just on a complete path of destruction lately.

Where did game 1 go?

I thought you already did this one?

my favorite caster by far

What if maru will use the protoss race instead maybe serral will be beaten when maru use protoss I guessed!?

Han & Horner vs. Abathur.

you sound like a super smart dude.

My Hero: Maru!!!

Is Serral really that good or are the zergs clearly unbalanced?

Serral trolling hard on second game he had already won

Are they the two best I t he world right now?

Is this video old ?or not ?

Hey lit!

How to mute caster?

Serral should come to gsl

I kinda expected the result with the most recent NERFs specially to the widow mine. I used to punish Aggro Ling Bane players with rushed Armory mines. But because those things are now slower to burrow and they don't have the range of Lurkers (who also became slower to burrow but because of their range, it compensates for that burrow nerf), the strategies that makes Ling-Bane and Mutaling risky is not really as viable as it used to be. There was a time when I aggro Zerg with mines, now I can only do it when I feel that the Zerg player is bad. Even players that I used to own with aggro mine strategies, now I am forced to turtle all the time. Seriously that Terran Nerf forced almost every high level Terran players to be defensive, that's why super aggro Terran players like Clem who were beating almost every Zerg players a couple of months ago have been defensive (which he is not that good at). Having the fastest eco, expansion, and recruitment in the game, and then the tools utilized by Terran players to punish hyper aggressiveness getting nerfed every time Blizzard decides to patch the game. Having all those advantages, that's not RTS. No wonder Zerg players have been super successful in recent tournaments lately. Heck, even Protoss can now use Gateways to out early aggro the Terrans, it used to be just Phoenixes. The Terran turtle being the only viable strategy against high level Zerg and Protoss players forced me to play more Zerg recently. This is coming from a Protoss main btw.

Terran vs Zerg = Insane Macro Vs 2 clicks

Weyland or Weyland-Yutani.

Tell me you are a Serral fan without telling me you are a Serral fan: Is Maru going to keep going for the same build?! :)

Crearly there is a balance issue here

amazing match to watch :) epic shit

I like the fact that in videos involving winning terrans who does camping with ghosts oneshotting every Zerg unit ( even ultralisks ) noone complains. But when the strongest sc2 player in the world beats Maru it's because zergs are to be nerfed lol.

Damn, after watching all those games from PiG where he gets rushed, and comes back from a huge disadvantage, I can't help but blame Serral for leaving FAR TOO EARLY in the 3rd game. Over double the workers and won't even bother to give up a base to mass ling bane behind is so lazy! Epic series nonetheless

hello

This series shows kinda why I'll never really be a Serral fan. As good as he is, the dude has no heart to fight on against all odds. He consistently snap-quits games where he still has a decent fighting chance, reminiscent of a whiny brat who doesn't get his way throwing a tantrum. All the skill in the world doesn't give someone the heart of a champion. Someone like Oliveira for example - despite being a much less skilled player - showed massive heart in Katowice 2023. And that was enough to take it all the way and win the world champ title against not one but many otherwise-better players. Serral could learn a thing or two from him.

I’ve played Terran for about 2500 ladder games and still don’t know how to play the Damn game. And yes I’ve watched all of pics bronze to GM videos. Zerg is totally imbalanced. I don’t fgi

Sins of solar empire 2 will replace this game

Helps when zerg is broken as shit, Maru has to play 3 times harder to win just to over come broken factions BS

It’s getting kind of boring when Serral plays against Terran. He makes Zerg so imbalanced

bro Maru is so good at tis game.. serral is quite lucky Maru needs to grind all the other zergs showing his game while Serral can hide his ZvT because there is simply no other terran rigth now.. and Maru despite all of this still is able to play out of this world

ZERG is way OP. Roughly 50% tournament (Premier, Global) top prizes have all gone to zergs during past 2-3 years according to SC2 Liquipedia.

Great casting. Terran had solid defensive positions and Maru controlled the army to the best a Terran can, but endless waves of a-moving ling/bane still overwhelm - I don't believe that's how an RTS game should work

Best terran vs one of the best zergs of all time.

Unimpressed with Maru's play this series, the lack of walling is quite sad.

los zerg deberían ser Rebalanceados, son muy rapidos y los zerlings hacen mucho daño para su costo y facilidad de produccion, tienen mucha ventaja en ese sentido de juego rapidos, todos los ganos de la misma manera zerral.

Serral gg out of game 2 because he was feeling bad for maru, can only stomp someone into the ground so many times

🐷#1 👍

Zerg is OP. Maru and Serral are the Best on her race but, Maru loose because the avantage of the number of Zerg is more efficient. Look game 3 and 4. Maru had a very good défense but Maru loose everything so quickly and Serral reborn in a instant. Its a Joke. For à Terran, its impossible to win a game. Terran had more désavantage. Maru and Serral are to god player but Terran Suck. Prouf in this games.

Plz nerf banelings

Great in depth commentary BUT having no game music or barely any game sounds makes it very dull to watch. I think you will increase viewer count and engagement if you dial in the sound settings - Want to see more from you!

hateful serral

Spoiler, but not really spoiler... Serral still wins. But it's Serral vs. maru, there's over 80% probability that Serral wins🤷‍♂

why gg g3 serral

too much advertising

zvt meta sucks. I hope they change the maps, so it becomes more enjoyable to play.

How tf are ghosts even a thing?

Serral is Federer of SC2! So glad he didn't make the same mistake as his brother to get a degree just to get paid on a salary. Serral on the other hand can retire early and go study/relax as he please

The game is unbalanced. There is no way the Terans are 100% on equal footing with the Zerg. Sadly, only like for like factions are fair.....but not as entertaining.

Blizzard nerfed Terran early aggression too much. Protoss has better early aggression, and Zerg has the better long game. Either way, I'm kinda not caring too much about high level SC2, such a stale game and meta at this point. I like lower level games, though.

few years later . still noone wants to admit Zerg is just broken. not even fun to watch games an hasn't been for quite awhile. Terran players have to play like gods to win anything. Zerg still just mass ling bane an still obliterating with Roach ravager rush's.
