i think clem style stalker wall is flexible (with 2 bunkers at the natural), good for high apm terran, but ruff style stalker wall is convenient for me (D1 terran)
I don't think this is necessarily true. I think he just doesn't care as much now that GSL wins is only worth like $100 USD and he knows he failed so many times at the biggest tournaments that I get the sense he just doesn't care as much any more
@@richardly1543 even in exposed state he is 1000x better than any dumb commentors like you. Like I dk if you do it delibirately, or just so naively ignorant not to notice that your comment is extremely condescending.
During that first game. Maru cant just pick up the tank and boost it to the natural. The stalkers could blink back into his main and he doesnt have any vision on the stalkers to see where they are going. If he puts the tank in the medivac, they can blink underneath and take out the tank and the medivac for free. Usually your commentary is pretty good, but this kind of incorrect backseating is quite annoying to watch. I think Maru knows better how to defend blink stalker pressure than you do.
First of all, that 5:22 tank positioning achieves very little if anything. It's not close enough to unseige and cover the tank in the natural quickly, nor is it in range to land an immediate shot if those stalkers blink into the main from the left, where hero did twice. Secondly, it takes I believe 12 stalker shots to take down a medivac, there aren't that many stalkers to one shot. Also stalkers' cool down is 7 seconds, if Maru loads up the tank and gets blinked on immediately then it's on his lack of awareness. Bottome line, Maru left a big opening and pig is trying to figure out how to repair it by pointing out the fundamentals. At 7:20 Maru is 2000 resources behind in trade, ultimately gave away the advantage and lost the game, that's not successful defence.

is maru gearing up to retire?
The stars did not align in the second game. Everything went wrong for him.
Maru has been getting exposed. His skills reached a hard peak and has never been able to evolve past that like the other top players
Unfortunately his tactics and methodology ran thin. It just doesn't work anymore.

@ if so he needs to quit. It’s embarrassing and tarnishing his once held legacy

What's up with maru, he is constantly being stomped.
Maru isn't practicing. It wouldn't surprise me if he was gearing up to go pro in a different game, or is thinking about his military service.
@@JasonOlney-uu1ddI agree. Sc2 isn't lucrative any more
Maru is on a decline since last yr and Clem basically ecplised him as the best Terran...Maru is a shadow of himself
The Maru falloff needs to be studied. So fast & so severe
such a boring game. Is maru betting on losing for 2 games?
rather watch the matchup with muted sound :)
second...not as good as first, but ya know what can ya do
Hi I'm first 100 like on this coment lol 🤣 BTW gg hero
