Dark’s use of zerg tech and weaknesses, it’s beautiful. Surgical. I have been starving for some really good counter punches from zergs (other than Serral) that weren’t just mass units and take economy
Im actually frightful for terran players. Terran does not have many tools to dismantle enemies like Zerg. Terran only have raw dps, you can do a push, a turtle build and some harassment and thats it. If more Zerg player can be masterful tactical like Serral and Dark then Zerg domination will begin once again.
@@teddanville6996 I actually think that these are very matchable, but the terran needs to tech up to ghosts early or somehow push the zerg in during the transition to higher tech. Seeing what we did from Maru, i’m guessing that Dark transitions to higher tech at the same time that Maru transitions to mass expansions. Normally Zerg can’t attack in during this because his pressure is so stellar and defense is so strong, so the vipers/infestors dismantle the pressure and give an easy way to deal with siege tanks
@@teddanville6996not true. All 3 races have a lot of tools if not symmetrical. If you play on the ladder, you get a lot of ideas that work for every race. It's just that for these gods, they make it look easy when they obliterate their opponents. Maru is a monster and he looked weak in this series. That's because Dark is another monster, not because Terran is weaker than Zerg.
They acting like dark hasn't always been a huge threat to Maru. Darks always been dangerous as hell and has taken Maru so many times sometimes easy. Dark isn't some underdog story here lol. (As a Terran player Maru fan)
That game 2 was absolutely brilliant. Dark barely holds from way behind, realizes he has to hit the planetary in the corner, but can't move out cuz he will get countered. Calmly solves it by creating an even bigger threat with the nydus in the main, pins Marus army to defend so he can hit the corner base without fear of getting counter attacked himself. That is some serious chess players tactics, overload and remove the defender, play on the side of the board you are strongest. And he uses the superior mobility of the nydus to defend on the opposite side of the map as well, like bishops dominates vs knights in the end game with play on both sides of the board. Goddamn that was good.
I haven't watched starcraft in years but I randomly thought about it and searched. Makes me so happy to see GSL still being produced with Tastosis just like the old days. SC2 and GSL gave me so much joy in my early twenties ;)
Its been a while since I watch a GSL maybe 3 years ago, those ling runbys made think of Life , still the best zerg sc2 playe tbh best SC2 player in my opinion and Taeja being my fav Terran and Parting to Protoss.
great game! Thanks all your guys behind microphones, I saw you, you are were at that level at those gamers. A I whis next game I could see The Protoss in finals
The fact that scvs can beat 3-3 adrenal lings just because medivacs are healing them makes me wonder what other stupid shit I haven't been noticing within this game
make units and attack maintains its 100% win rate against terran in every match up. 14 years of it and z/p still havnt figured it out. luckily blizzard intentionally does not balance its games
lol wont be long till silver zergs can take out maru, just build more lings, and lurkers if ur struggling ( just gotta get em into the terrans base , i know its easier said then done, but once its done.. the game is legit done )
there are two maru in the world. the real maru that can beat any players in this planet , and the final matches maru that every professional play can beat him.
Maru - 8 GSL wins , remember that. No foreigner has ever won a GSL Code S. Not even a finals showing. Although 1 or 2 foreigners is now very strong. They only play against players like Showtime for the most part. All the best SC2 players are still (and always has been) in Code S.
Lol, “all” the best players are most certainly not in GSL. Many of them.. yes.. just as many are spread across Europe with smatterings elsewhere. Beware zealots that throw around superlatives like that.. usually idiots
It would have been a 7 games series if Maru didn’t throw game 2 where he had 6 bases to Dark 4 bases. Kinda kill the exciment for me when someone throw so hard 😅

I rly like the "we are gsl" banners they hold up
So happy for Dark. AFTER YEARS he finally got it!
And he won it against MARU so amazing. Well earned.
And with this map pool!

dark played a good creative zerg. he really seemed to have marus number on this one. and won as a dad to boot
Im not a fan of many players. Absolutely love these 2 finalists.

I think the joke is when it comes to GSL and Mary basically everyone is an underdog

I'm not crying, you are🥲
I'm so happy, i just knew he would do it this time. He was set on that path. Congratulations to the champion!🎉
GG Congrats Dark, this guys been on top for many years. One of the best
I haven't watched starcraft in years but I randomly thought about it and searched. Makes me so happy to see GSL still being produced with Tastosis just like the old days. SC2 and GSL gave me so much joy in my early twenties ;)

Maru didn't even play bad. Dark was just all over him. Such a beast...
“I almost forgot how to win.” -Dark I’m sure many people can relate. Congratulations DARK!

Dark is the best ❤
Awesome match!
Such intelligent play!!! 😮😮😮

Does anyone know the song at 00:30
This was an incredible game!!
The fact that scvs can beat 3-3 adrenal lings just because medivacs are healing them makes me wonder what other stupid shit I haven't been noticing within this game
I don't even like Zerg but Dark is the mother F**king GOAT
Oh cool they changed the channel over 👍

That's because Serral hasn't graced GSL with his presence.
@@CEL91ifySerral has beaten GSL players constantly but he really could settle it by playing in GSL one season
At this point, you guys are just GSL purists. Serral and Clem aren't even in this tournament but you still won't shut up about this Artosis argument
Lol, “all” the best players are most certainly not in GSL. Many of them.. yes.. just as many are spread across Europe with smatterings elsewhere. Beware zealots that throw around superlatives like that.. usually idiots
@@shapowlowlmao because they aren't as good. Only European smooth brains think serral is as good as dark.
what a stupid thing to do! uploading this with that thumbail, before uploading the full vod of the whole finals. Thanks for the spoiler Afreeca! Fark!
