Dear GSL Please bring back the in-game player announcement voice. It is classic to the GSL. It gives suspense. I miss it. Thanks for everything you all do. ♥️
@@soroushdarvish9281 Keep in mind GSL is incredibly tight on budget now. Just the fact that it's at this level of production on nothing but fan contributions is impressive. They probably need to cut non-essential items.
So good seeing Dark very clearly improve a lot lately. Not just mechanical skill, but the showing of different ideas and thinking novel on the spot. Very interesting and strong player.
No It was not, this spoiler got there (and upvoted) way before the useless Shield of Air. And yeah, it spoiled the Finals for me, too.@@forexbotstudio
No spoilers but, its weird how casters always talk about Dark like hes not the #1 zerg in Korea and second really only to Serral. They always talk like its ragnarok or some shit.
Yeah, hes very clearly the #2 zerg and top 5 in the world. To be fair though he is probably the underdog against Cure and definitely the underdog against Maru. I would rank my top 5 as Serral, Maru, Cure, Dark, Hero although the bottom 3 are all arguable
@@bahachan I think his floor is higher over the last 2 years or so. I think its Dark at his best > Cure most of the time > Dark most of the time recently. But totally debatable
@@plantex625Cure’s winrate vs Dark is abysmal, it was even shown on stream. Even just on a general level, Dark is more consistent, has way better micro, way better lategame, way better gamesense, way better mental, etc.
I think getting a top 4 is MORE than a good result for him. He hasn't merited winning a GSL let alone reaching the finals. His overall performance has just never been up there with the guys who do make finals. I say that with no disrespect, I like the guy.
I agree. Creator really played well. He really delivered in his matches against Maru! Don't forget, when Maru is losing, he's just on par with you! To see that Creator was fighting him head-to-head like that in both early game and late game is really impressive.
I like how Dark said he disliked darkness, that it was his biggest fear. He also said that his gamer tag is the best. Dark is doing a Batman: take the name of something you fear and make your opponents fear it too. Also interesting that most players agreed that the best gamer tag of the GSL players is Dark.
Dark is doing Darker things. I was sad about Cure losing to Dark, but then when same happened to Maru, I'm just glad for Dark. Awesome and very smart moves.
Thanks to all the crew and those donating for keeping GSL alive! Hats off to the translator, I don't know how accurate they are as I don't speak Korean, but the speed and flow is top notch, even if they are just rounding out the translation with their own words. I remember a few years back it was a lot clunkier. Great job.
It's not about being less or more emotional. It's about accepting all of your emotions. Without them people become too limited in terms of ideas and creativity. So it's always about balance and control of your feelings, not about blocking all of them and becoming a robot.
Dark is the only zerg player who'd stay at the top if they ever balanced the race. All the other top zergs crutch so hard on the unbalanced things while dark will just do amazing plays that would work regardless.
Spoiler --- Wow, Dark is nuts. I knew he was gonna win because this tournament he has been on a tear. I didn't think he was gonna body Maru like that. Holy cow!!
Dark did play amazingly. He read the games incredibly well. The Cure greed being shut down completely was just some foreplay. Dark continued with adapting to the game state and just made attacks work, made impossible defenses work, and just played well in general.
Great finals! Although this is not a first win for Dark I think it means a lot for him. Thanks to the entire GSL crew for such a show. Long live SC2 and GSL!
Finals Game 2: I'm just sitting here with both hands on my face with goosebumps. Like the casters were saying, it looks like a textbook loss but then you look and he's literally attacking at every single point on the map.
So happy for Dark ! When Creator got eliminated I started rooting for Dark ! He is a legend and if I were to learn Zerg I would try to learn Dark's style. It's so representative of what the race can do in a smart and scary way.
I'm missing the old days player presentations at the begining of the match with the camera plays and stuff :_ also... SPOILER ALERT: . . . . After all these years I see that nothing changed in the SC2 elite scene... always (mostly) dominated by ZERG and TERRAN. GSL Protoss champions are the true heroes IMO.
One of the best finals I’ve ever watched. But i defs feel bad for terrans on ladder coming up 😂 3:30 roach warren, 2 more gas, stop at 41 drones and then…. 🤣
I am kind of surprised Tasteless didn't recognize the 1-1-1 Terran push from Wings of Liberty. Oh, he is a Protoss player. Still, that build was heavily used against Protoss, so he should definitely be able to recognize it. But thankfully we have an analytical caster with him (to replace Artosis). Guys, you're making a good pair, keep it up. 😉
At this point, Clem is the best Terran player in the world. Compared to Maru, Clem’s play style is just way too aggressive. But W for Dark though, that was mad!
These were really nice matches.I think all 4 semi-finalist did really well here, especially Creator, who's the underdog! EDIT: Perhaps I should stop considering him the underdog...
I watch Brood War and the graphics are fantastic. I watch SC2 and the graphics are PURPLE, and maybe some PINK, but PURPLE though and BUBBLY PURPLE AND PINK AND YOU KNOW WHAT EVERYTHING SHOULD BE PUUURRRPLLLEEE!!!!!!!!! It's wretched.

Dear GSL
Please bring back the in-game player announcement voice. It is classic to the GSL. It gives suspense. I miss it. Thanks for everything you all do. ♥️
It is very strange decision to have it removed.
@@soroushdarvish9281 Keep in mind GSL is incredibly tight on budget now. Just the fact that it's at this level of production on nothing but fan contributions is impressive. They probably need to cut non-essential items.
Best GSL-finals in a long time! Thank you AfreecaTV and Stateless for the cast! And congratulations for the winner!
I miss the old “Have a good morning, afternoon or evening wherever you are! We love you!”
Stateless were hillarious during the finals entrance. Almost peed, poor Artosis. 2:53:45
hahahaha. pricetosis
"In your face internet!" 🤣
Dark's play was beautiful. Breathes new life into SC2
Zerg's strategy is the same. Destroy everything with banelings. 😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you Tasteless and State. Great commentary guys!
Thank you Afreeca for putting SC2 on for the fans. More seasons please!
Spoiler Shield of Aiur 🛡️
Bump
Maru almost stand a chance
If only the sidebar hadn't recommended me the separate finals match video...
That Finals was awesome!!
So good seeing Dark very clearly improve a lot lately. Not just mechanical skill, but the showing of different ideas and thinking novel on the spot. Very interesting and strong player.
Great win for Dark. His play on the day was far superior to the other finalists.
What an amazing game and player. Dark's game sense is on another level
best lurkers ever
So happy for Dark, he deserves this so much...
Thanks for the spoiler. Got 1 game in and this comment ruined it. Thanks doode!!!
@troycoulter291 the spoiler shield was there...
@@forexbotstudio RUclips scrolls comments thru that one box. Shields no longer work. Yayyyy ty youtube.
No It was not, this spoiler got there (and upvoted) way before the useless Shield of Air. And yeah, it spoiled the Finals for me, too.@@forexbotstudio
@@troycoulter291quit looking at the comments lmao
What a competitor Dark is....instead of lifting trophy first he goes and shakes hand with his opponent. Huge Respect and Congratulations Dark
Absolutely terrific line up. Some of the best Star craft gamers of all time…. Too cool.

How is cure better than dark
@@bahachan I think his floor is higher over the last 2 years or so. I think its Dark at his best > Cure most of the time > Dark most of the time recently. But totally debatable
When did they suggest otherwise? They talked Dark up plenty.
@@plantex625Cure’s winrate vs Dark is abysmal, it was even shown on stream. Even just on a general level, Dark is more consistent, has way better micro, way better lategame, way better gamesense, way better mental, etc.
This entire finals day was amazing and it makes me so happy to see the results, thanks guys!
Creator played so well, and still it's nowhere near enough to even think about winning GSL.
I think it is near enough to think about winning. He was in the top 4.
I think getting a top 4 is MORE than a good result for him. He hasn't merited winning a GSL let alone reaching the finals. His overall performance has just never been up there with the guys who do make finals.

His warp prism micro was particularly impressive
Creator has a lot of potential for sure.

Such wonderful cast, final and incredibly well deserved win for Dark! As a husband, I can relate so much - wanting to do so well for my family! :)
My favorite Semis and Finals in a while. Awesome games from all the players

Great games, great vibe, great comentatores, great comunity.... hope this never ends :)
GSL let's goooooooooo!!!
Really great Finals! Hope GSL keeps on going!
Congratulations Dark! indeed. it was well deserved win.
and thank you GSL for the amazing sc2 history.
Congrats to the winner.. Great Semi finals and Finals! Very emotional!
Ryan "Indeed It Is" Visbeck
"OMG a nidus size blind spot" 😂
Such a great finale
It's crazy to see the physical size difference between Maru and Dark
DARK on GOD MODE left me speech less. E P I C ! GG WP !
But as Protoss and Zerg master I would like to see Protoss win some more tournaments.
Spoiler ---
Wow, Dark is nuts. I knew he was gonna win because this tournament he has been on a tear. I didn't think he was gonna body Maru like that. Holy cow!!
In the last game, the timing of his pressure to get the tanks to siege 2s before the nydus popped in the main was absolute art. Starcraft at its best
Dark did play amazingly. He read the games incredibly well. The Cure greed being shut down completely was just some foreplay. Dark continued with adapting to the game state and just made attacks work, made impossible defenses work, and just played well in general.
Well deserved win.
Amazing games guys, can’t wait for another season!
I love GSL! Thank you players, casters, and AFREECATV!!
Love a Full VOD for Sunday morning
i want to see a protoss GSL champ again so badly
Awesome tournament and casting! 🙂💪
When Dark and Maru play against each other it’s almost always a great series
The Swarm is back ❤
Dark been studying Serral vs Maru games 😁
Great finals! Although this is not a first win for Dark I think it means a lot for him. Thanks to the entire GSL crew for such a show. Long live SC2 and GSL!
Park Sang Hyun is such a legend of a presentator. He brings a smile to Dark and his interviewees always. Such a great guy !
Finals Game 2: I'm just sitting here with both hands on my face with goosebumps. Like the casters were saying, it looks like a textbook loss but then you look and he's literally attacking at every single point on the map.
Amazing games!
Please let there be a GSL next year thank you for everything you guys do
GG. Well played, Daddy Dark.
Thank you for another wonderful season!
Awesome matches!
A f. fabulous 2nd game in the finales. GSL finals worthy.
3:25:45 overlord full of lings did not drop loads waiting for queens to finish all hellions first.
dark's amazing
In the last game the blind spot, that wouldn't be a mistake Maru would normally do!
So happy for Dark ! When Creator got eliminated I started rooting for Dark ! He is a legend and if I were to learn Zerg I would try to learn Dark's style. It's so representative of what the race can do in a smart and scary way.
We love you Dark! You too Maru! GG
GSL Forever!
please bro KEEP THE BEARD!
Queens are OP. Heal, defend, inject, anti-air, anti-ground, creep, good health.
There’s a reason they call it the “Zerg Cabal” 😂
such amazing games. Thank you, players. Thank you, casters. Thank you, Afreeca. GSL forever.
State and Tasteless look so classy!
Thank you GSL!

Yea production gone down alot. I mostly watch broodwar as not much happens in gsl anymore. It's mostly the same
Yup Toss was nerfed out of viability at pro level. There’s only 2 races in this game to play if u want to win tournaments 😂
@@dpend Toss as always been good on ladder but trash at the highest levels. always has and always will be.
@@dpend Such a funny thing to say with 2 tosses in the bo4
Anyone else sat around for the whole delay before the final because they just love hearing Tasteless and State chatting?
One of the best finals I’ve ever watched. But i defs feel bad for terrans on ladder coming up 😂 3:30 roach warren, 2 more gas, stop at 41 drones and then…. 🤣
What a final man
great games !!!
On est allé voter !!
Anyone getting tearing of the video at the top of the screen?
We would support more but where held down by chains

Great final aeries

State: "If there is anyone in the world right now who can take down Maru, it's Dark"
Serral: "Am I a joke to you?"
Much Love to BK and the Afreeca Musicteam. Ya'll been killin it forever.
а кто 3й обладатель трех чемпионств ГСЛ - Роуг, Дарк и ... ???
amazing performance
Epic matches!
the amount of commercials are already way to much.. you need to scale back the frequence..
2 players with the most killer instinct ever
what crazy plays from the winner 0.o
I am kind of surprised Tasteless didn't recognize the 1-1-1 Terran push from Wings of Liberty. Oh, he is a Protoss player. Still, that build was heavily used against Protoss, so he should definitely be able to recognize it. But thankfully we have an analytical caster with him (to replace Artosis).

Hyyyype! Wow "stateless" is a thing now? 😂
Where is Artosis?
Cure’s hair is spacing me the fk out and yes im stoned
What a games..
Amazing Finals Dark played out of his mind! Papa zerg all the way!
LETS GOOO! Dark fan boy here.
MAN that last cure vs dark game was sick , i still think cure should have tried to harrass dark for longer before leaving though XD
At this point, Clem is the best Terran player in the world. Compared to Maru, Clem’s play style is just way too aggressive. But W for Dark though, that was mad!
Winner spoiler: StarCraft Fans!
Cure had game 4 in his hands but overpushed after made so much with the banshees in the mid game.
Dark studied from the school of Serral it would seem
These were really nice matches.I think all 4 semi-finalist did really well here, especially Creator, who's the underdog!
EDIT: Perhaps I should stop considering him the underdog...
why does state and tasteless both have such good hairlines, it's not fair!!
I watch Brood War and the graphics are fantastic. I watch SC2 and the graphics are PURPLE, and maybe some PINK, but PURPLE though and BUBBLY PURPLE AND PINK AND YOU KNOW WHAT EVERYTHING SHOULD BE PUUURRRPLLLEEE!!!!!!!!! It's wretched.
Terran at least 5 times stronger then Protoss
