- Serral looked almost completely unstoppable this tournament, perhaps the only thing that could've done it was Maru's insane mech play

Mario vs Sarah, a match for the ages brought to you by YT subtitles.
lmao
@@uThermal oh, the man himself. Thx for all the content, your build guides are A+
Lmao literally the first thing I saw when I loaded this video up. I will forever more refer to them as Mario and Sarah :)
ahh yes my fav matchup
I got mar vs 0
It's awesome to see how much you've progressed as a commentator over the course of these 9 months. Keep it up!)
And now another 7 months later, my man’s videos are so much more hype than this one
Ive seen this game but actually wanted to see you cast it, love your unique commentary, good stuff, cheers!
Its mind boggling how these 2 players are so good .. Its another level entirely.
great analysis marc! 23:48 really is fascinating to me. he didnt really need the tanks anymore and was willing to trade the tanks for a base but he wanted to save the thor to build up a squad of thors. A lesser player wouldn't have done that, definitely never saw anything like it in the noob games I play :P
Heromarine alllllmost got it. I was SO hyped vs rouge. This one game should have been his 3. win, I hope we see more mondays! Insane!
I feel like he tilted when that ling runby got in his base, but otherwise he totally couldve taken the series. Too slow on the depot raise. I felt that in my bones tho and understood why he tapped out lol
Soul changing his name to Spirit made wonders to his game. I hope you could do a deep dive on his games too. He was a dark horse in the tourney and performed exceptionally well. IMO a lot of terrans underperformed especially from team NV but fans are overlooking the fact that other terrans did great like yourself, heromarine, ryung and spirit. I was really hyped up til the semis.
Spirit looked so good in the playoffs
That tank push towards the end actually pushed all the way into the main
23:13 the god EMP good lord....
Love watching your casts man!
I see mech i like the video! All i have to do is play like maru to make it work
Wish this series measured up to last year's IEM match between Reynor and Maru.
serral2good
I knew this was gonna be on this channel as I was watching it
What a god
any of your own gameplay with this style in the future? would be really excited to see your take on it but love the vids ❤️ keep em coming!
23:04 that tank next to the orbital.. I wish we could see how many kills it got by the end of its life.
I actually played a weird bio/mech/starport combo kinda similar to this but against toss... double rax ghost, 4 factories 2 with tech labs, and 2 BC starports (2 more later)...
It was a very fun game, and with EMP archon and zealot tanking no longer works so it could potentially be a strong stratergy to use. What is even funnier is that this was not silver league, this was actually in the upper rungs of Diamond league, then again, it was on NA.
How do you know how many tanks to siege and how many to leave unsieged when facing swarmhost?
Hell yeah, brother.
I want to see uThermal be Maru's coach, Maru please hire him
IEM Katowice is always a bit of a disappointment near the end for me. You get to see awesome, balanced, competitive play near the beginning of the event, but as you go deeper into the competition Zerg usually begins sweeping everyone and coasts on to the finals. Seeing Maru come up with awesome game strats and still losing his series to Reynor and Serral is a movie I've seen too many times before.
really disappointing to see him go out in the R8 but heromarine put on a good show and while I'm not usually a fan of ZvZ, Serral and Reynor really went at it
Yeah I kinda feel that, really happy for Serral but I wish a Terran could do it for once too :/
It's just that there's an imbalance of the skills of players. The top guys of Zerg are so much stronger than the other races. We can see here just how powerful Terran late game is, and yeah I think Maru with his Terran has the strongest late game of all. If Maru is at the least even going to late game, it's game over for Zerg. That's how strong Terran is. But in the next game, Serral just didn't allow Maru to be even with him in early+ mid. Maru also almost did it vs Reynor but lost because of his own huge mistake feeding his units to broodlords, so that was on him.
@@uThermal Unless they change the map pool or format, I feel like it will almost always be a Zerg winner. The long lead up time gives all the Zerg time to study their opponents, get used to the maps, and it didn't help that the map pool was quite Zerg-favoured once again.
@@angchinwee lol I checked, TY is pretty much the only non Zerg to win IEM K since it became the headline event
Thermy POV analysis, I got you!
Very nice, thanks for the vid.
Something it should be noted, to nural a ghost, then have the hotkey ready for use of the EMP in the group, use it, before the infestor gets shot,
requires SUCH pinpoint precision and timing...is unreal.
Nice vidéo bro !
gr8 cast uThermal, thanks. just curious - in your professional opinion, dyou think Maru's form tailed off coming into Katowice? in the second half of 2021 he was basically punching everyone in the teeth (ASUS ROG, King of Battles, Dreamhack) but looked a bit sloppy starting in GSL ST1 and then IEM K, didn't look like he was on form
I think its a mix of a few things, first of all I don't think Maru's form dropped off towards the end but he did seem a little more lost vs Protoss ; In both the ST and IEM he was doing a lot of aggressive super risky builds which made me feel like he didnt believe in his TvP. Besides that I think Maru always plays a little bit worse overseas at the global finals, whether that is pressure or him just really not liking travel I don't know. Last point is that I think Terran does thrive a bit on surprise, and with all the top zergs being able to study and prepare for his special bio and mech style his chances definitely lowered a lot in the global finals compared to the 'smaller' premier tournaments.
@@uThermal super. thanks mate! and also good showing yourself, would have loved to see you in the round of 24 but hopefully next year!
Maru ist such a beast and always seeing him playing there is one thing that I srsly always See in him and what makes him so freaking dangerous, his patience! His patience is his biggest weapon for sure that pro have a REAL Talent to keep a cold head and the strike at the right moments
Greetings from the Philippines
Konte lang tayu.. hehe
great content Uthermal! also very happy you participated in Katowice, and yes guys, Zerg is totally OP, and the worse is that a unit nerfing will not fix it since is a race design issue. Still love the game.
biggest thing I noticed about serrals fall from dominance is that he stopped doing constant run bys, also he stopped setting up surrounds
interesting content !!
I am here leaving a comment and liking this video
Yes, this is the perfect Mech game vs Z, Let's go ando use It in ladder!
banger video
Maru is amazing, however my favorite has always been pre-injury ByuN.
Unless im missing something, those arent broods, those are locusts
This game and heromarine vs solar series its awsome
Wow. just wow.
😱😱😱
Let's go
Imagine this become the terran meta for the next year
I get dizzy just looking at it
would this style work against protoss?
Mech is very weak against Protoss typically so nah ^^
@@uThermal 😔
dissapointed for all the tosses in IEM
I thought we were going back in time to the WESG tourney where Maru crushed Serral for some reason. 2017 maybe? A shame because all the VODs were removed.
uThermal deep in the Liquid like those undersea vents in the Blue Planet show -- percolate the sediment and bestow on us polychaeta worms your hot content!
I recommend doing your own camera work unless you want to highlight something specific in the player POV.
I've been struggling to find the right balance, especially with some perfect POV moments being ruined by players spamming their camera all over the place :P but I'll keep trying to improve
Isn't ghost mech just mech in lotv?
Was hoping Cure would make some noise at Katowice ☹️
We need TY and Inno back desperately!
Yeah we really need TY.
Terran OP bro
lol, you're my favorite terran:D
Love how Maru plays.
He is a winner.
Terran vs Zerg is a hard match for Terran.
Cure my favorite Terran!
I think if ure opponent is serral u have to play that little bit of extra fast even if ur name is maru lol
Ultramarines Vs Tyranids.
Your screen is often missing the action and is following maru’s fast movement which makes it hard to watch
Most (not all) of my casting videos are in POV analysis style, the point is that we see clearly how the player does things ^^
Ничего не понятно, но оочень интересно
Not gonna lie, I'm pretty tired of seeing mass ling/bane throw itself into an army over and over and over again.
Relatable xD
Widow mines?
@@marcomarin1196 Mines are simply too random and unreliable.
I don't want to put my faith in a unit that has an attack that can be avoided entirely or otherwise mitigated with good micro - especially considering all pros have good micro. Not only that, I kinda hate the fact that mines seem as likely to hurt my units as the zerg's. Then there's the fact that it's a one-shot per fight unit; so while it does high damage *if it connects,* it's useless for the rest of the fight. *Mines have a dps of 4.3.* While big hits are exciting - they're rare.
Zerg pros are so good at avoiding early game damage with mass queen spam (barf) that it's highly unlikely you can stop them from droning with impunity. From there it's just wave after wave of ling/bane crashing into your units with wildly inefficient trades that slowly wear you out via attrition.
This used to be the most exciting match up in SC2. Now it feels very stale.
@@Aiphiae but like you say this is a case of Zerg pros mastering the current meta not imba.
This defensive Mech Ghost play vs Serral was his best game of the series because it went against the standard and was able to withstand the swarm until ready to overpower.
Basic Hellion into MMM is what all of us Zergs play all the time even on ladder.
T and P have much better harassment tools, gotta stop the Zerg before the swarm arrives.
@@marcomarin1196 Where did I say anything about "imba?"
It's just boring to watch. No doubt there have been some amazing games but I would argue they're outliers in a meta that is nothing but drone to 90 > slam ling/bane into Terran > tech up > slam ling/bane into Terran late game.
*T and P have much better harassment tools, gotta stop the Zerg before the swarm arrives.*
Yeah, except you can't really do that when they're fielding 10 to 13 queens.
Aw don't be so hard on yourself, Thermy. My favourite terran is YOU.
Ook niet bevooroordeeld hoor, neeee hahahahaha
Serral... The man has been the best for four years (or second best for some months) in Aligulac... Man is a force of nature. Finland!
Aligulac OMEGALUL
this was the worst sc2 world championship I've ever seen for sure
How come?
Terraner sind OP
Ghosts counter all three end game options for Zerg (BWs, Ultras, Lurkers). It's stupidly balanced like the Archon toilet before 10 years.
Ghosts don't really counter lurkers or broodlords, its usually just an even trade
@@uThermal I don't consider it an even trade. I've seen dozens of ZvT matches going late-game, and usually, even top-tier Zerg players like Serral, start to loose all their momentum by the time Ghosts arrive on the battlefield. I think all Clem vs Serral games are an excellent example of that. It's not only that snipes and EMPs that work better than abduct and fungal on the spellcaster vs spellcaster matchup. It's just the fact that Ghosts are tiny figures that can snipe zerg's visible detectors and retreat behind tons of bio and survive even if get fungeled.
@@teodorehI'm so glad all the Terran players chose to lose the turnaments to Zerg, because they know how OP Ghosts are! Such nice guys!
@@teodoreh do you suggest they just make it so Terran has no half decent lategame unit and just get steamrolled instead?
@@smnvalex I suggest that Blizzard's single intern who is responsible for gameplay nowadays, should consider other ways of balancing late TvZ than giving all the cards to Ghosts. Again, 2021's Ghosts are 2010's Archon Toilet.
¿Cuál es el propósito de cambiar tan rápido de posición en el mapa, que no sabes dónde estás, porque saltas a otro punto a las décimas de segundo? No es que no sepa ni dónde estoy mirando en el mapa, sino que provoca casi, mareo y ansiedad. Corrige eso porque es molesto, bastante...
What is the purpose of changing your position on the map so fast that you don't know where you are, because you jump to another point within tenths of a second? It's not that I don't even know where I'm looking on the map, but it causes almost, dizziness and anxiety. Correct that because it's annoying, it's quite...
Honestly, this is terrible to watch. He flicks map views so many times that it hurts my eyes. Don't understand me wrong, when I play, I do that, but I know what I'm looking for. When he clicks it, I don't know what I'm looking at until I check minimap. Comment is top tier but Lowko have much more pleasent camera view. GG
It's Maru's view
I dont like this commentator. 👎
uThermal is my favorite Terran. Please get that right good sir.
