I've watched GSL since the very first one, I remember all the horrible caster replacement we had over the years, good to see finally someone worthy replace Artosis. Maru is the GOAT
Hahaha omg i'm feeling this! I was so sad and down last year hearing that Artosis is moving on (best for him and his family, he deserves everything good) - but yeah Stateless is really killing it. So entertaining and he really knows his stuff and just listening to them you can learn sooo much about this game.
State is slowly becoming my favorite caster. His analysis may not always turn out to be correct but the story he pulls out from every situation reminds me of the way day9 casts. It helps the viewers follow a story and keeps everyone engaged. Great job sir!
Korean government could sponsor the GSL, it's like promoting culture. I watched and played so much SC2 the donations I made are nothing compared to what I received.
May all the spoiler become zerg tumor and left alone in some planet. Entaro adun ! Match 1 11:07 Match 2 30:57 Match 3 40:37 Match 4 1:03:21 Match 5 1:34:34 Match 6 1:53:06 Match 7
guys what is the name of the song used here,, the back ground song, I only got - shouldn't have never let my guard down, shouldn't have never let you know how - but I can't hear the rest
You guys remember Stats, and Trap, and Neeb, and PartinG, and Zest... Who ALL went to the military or retired within 24 months of each other?.. herO and Maxpatch have both made it to a Final and both beat Maru [but barely] in that Bo7 in the past 5 months. It has little to do with Balance; there just simply isn't as many Pro level Tosses at this particular moment in time. EVERY race has this occur. There is no such fucking thing as perfect equality and distribution of races at all points in time. FFS. To blame balance is just tunnel-visioned and lazy.
@@real_MacrocosMit happens from time to time when maru was in the army back then zerg rised too. But then again people start to complain about balance which is true in some points but also sounds absurd in some points too.
I have a question for those still deep into sc2 as I have not really played in a long time. Why were their worker counts so low? In those matches I saw Maru staying at 55-65 scvs and Dark with 65-75 drones.
Maru goes mass CC (mules) late game to enable a bigger standing army - prior to this he does go up to ~80 scvs in the mid game. Dark's main army composition of roach/ravager typically has a lower drone count due to the higher supply cost of this composition (i.e. 200/200 roach aggression build) . A muta/ling/bane or hydra-lurk/ling/bane comp still has the typical 80-90 drones and in the longer games he does reach this number of drones as he transitions out of roach/ravager.
Am I the only person who saw Maru interference matrix the gold hatch to try and prevent the cancel at 1:27:42 only for Dark to beat him to the punch? Is this real life?
I don't understand why dark didn't invest in 3-4 corruptors early in the games. Terrans biggest asset are the medivacs, if you nullify those then you effectively get the whole map to yourself for the rest of the game, no? Like @ 1:43:36, Dark had the money and I think would have been able to keep both of those hatches alive with the threat of 2 corruptors per army group.
Pros generally don't build early corruptors because you would need like 4 or 5 of them to be a deterrent for medivacs and at that point you really don't have enough gas to make enough banes. 1000 resources to not do any damage to marines/tanks.
@@connorfrancis7471 Sure, but the amount of damage without them was horrendous (in this game) haha. Maybe not 4-5 at once, but 1 here and there? IDK...
@@brazilfootballcause they’re more expensive than muta and offer very little utility. Hard to have them positioned correctly especially when you’re on 4+ bases. The kill on medivac is not guaranteed. You either lose your cors to marines or they’ll just boost away. Plus it’s not like tvp where starport has to choose between vikings or medivacs. Terran will replace those medivacs eventually.
@@axeljohannes3464 Terran hasnt won a world title since Byun did it in 2016 until this year when Oliveira win it. Sure they win tournaments, but it wasnt the biggest ones. And internationally, meaning taking out GSL and EU regional, how many Terrans has won tournament outside of Maru?
gotta love how Caster Park tries to extract drama from every pre-game interview but the players are usually just like "yeah my opponent is pretty good"
@@GoDiMoNsTeR the wings one was the original ones given to GSL champion each time they win it. The first big one was for G5L, winning 5 GSL, that Maru got last year. Now I am not sure if GSL just switch to that shape for good, or is it just for Maru because he also won the 6th and 7th one. I guess we will only know if a different player win the GSL and see which pin they will get.
actually.. I think zerg is not using nydus canal enough... Im watching some very dang old gsl game and ogsthewind use em like a pro back in 2010. zerg should really use em . they actually go unnoticed in maru s base . in season 3 I bet this come meta
Dang first place was only $7k. To work 1/4th of the year for $7k sucks. These guys went from $100k prize pools to working 80+ hr weeks for minimum wage
thats the risk of working entertainment, you live or die on your viewership. technically that's everything, it's just the consumer base is less fickle with things that have productivity value
That last game... why wouldn't you, as Dark, make like 15 muta and just go ravage behind? The thors are the antiair and they're away from base and slow.
Maru participated since the very beginning of GSL, but he didn't win it until 2018. SC2 was way more competitive in early days because prize pools were about 200k and this season its just 25k. There were way more people competing and the skill cap was higher. I want to see prime MC / MVP / Nestea / Innovation vs prime Maru then we know who is the real best player
maru is basically retired at this point and has won several times more tournaments and prize money than serral and that during a time when starcraft was way more competitive. you are comparing an old timer to a newcomer towards the end of starcraft 2 lifetime. serral is a slighty better player now but his impact and career have been negligent compared to marus. serral would have been middle of the pack during the prime years when starcraft was at its peak. both playerwise and from a tournament and prize money perspective @@edd8914
Actually not even wrong. I realized at some point that adding starcraft videos to favorites to re-watch when I'm older is pointless because sc2 still keeps changing.

Congrats to Tasteless and State.
State is undoubtedly a worthy replacement. Incredibly well done.
What happened to Artosis though?
@@JaggedJack1 family
@@bgnoodle4325 Ah nice. Good for him!

Maru vs Dark is my fav matchups of all players and races...always delivers carzy , intense, messy and insane games :D
Tasteless and State are a great team. Thanks guys
Maru nuking his own base is to instill fear into his enemy, not to deal with the nydus.
We need more likes for GSL videos. 2k views and 50 likes =/. This event is awesome please help it continue!!

Dark such a beast. Great competition, great job GSL production crew.
Maru is a damned legend since his first sc2 game
Incredible games, thanks GSL!!
Nice games, good job on commentary too. Keep that coming guys ! :)

Love from Portugal. This was amazing. Thank you for sharing this tournament for the whole world to see.
Great and scrappy games. Congrats to the winner.

So much fun
You guys remember Protoss? There used to be a whole other race you could play in this game!
Honestly it made me kinda depressed to see only a single protoss in the Ro.8

I think you’re seeing a marauder shot. Can you actually interférence buildings?
@@danielkorchinski No it's definitely an interference matrix. No idea if that would actually prevent you from canceling the build.
@@danielkorchinski Yeah I think it is a marauder shot
@@indoloreveritas Interference matrix can't target buildings so it's "definitely" not an interference matrix.

GSL is a great tournament were 20 tetans, 10 zergs and like 2-3 protos battle against each other until Maru takes the cake

Hence the word 'should'. Reading comprehension is good, no?

yeah the game seems much better now after some protoss nerfs earlier. I would like to see a few more nerfs for Protoss then it would be perfect
gotta love how Caster Park tries to extract drama from every pre-game interview but the players are usually just like "yeah my opponent is pretty good"
feel like swarmhost could've been a factor in those split map games
Maru's so good with ghosts though. Literally one engagement could destroy a swarmhost based comp.
Very hard to defend with them when maru is dropping you at 3 places at once
