not gonna lie. nothing is more enjoyable to watch in SC2 than a really high end TvZ
Am I the only one who rather watching than playing this game?
akward us :D
quite enjoy this way
i havent played it in a long time but i like to watch it
Haven't played in well over a year but the state of competitive play is great to watch. They have good casters most other games don't have.
seriously
Maru might not have made to the next round but he definitely made it to our hearts
Widow mine widow mine widow mine!!!
*changes camera view and misses it completely*
As a zerg player, I have lots of respect for Maru. He's my favorite terran player. I thought for sure he was going to beat Rogue. GG Rogue is keeping us Zerg proud. :)
Innovation is better than Maru
i like proto's but me to
jose ore ATM defiantly not. And aren't Maru Innovation and ty the s tier Terrans really ATM?
Pro Zerg always beats pro Terran... I hate it. Zerg is OP and too fast.
@Manuel Delgado are you high? Zerg is designed to be that way, you have to leverage your midgame advantages into things like more bases, or damage to the enemy if you want to win the late game. Or just take a really good fight.
Another "Intro to SC" series. SO many good games lately. And Maynardes hype is epic.
Man I was pulling for Maru. I watched him this entire series and was really hoping he would make it to the Grand Final. It's been a while since he's made it.
I feel that he wins when he is hyper aggressive, loses when he has to defend.
it is hard for terran bio against zerg/bane
I hope everytime that atleast a Terran make it to the grand final
I have been a fan of maru even before innovation started dominating. I just like to watch his hyper aggressive play style alot.
dude, innovation started dominating before maru started play SC, actually...
the entire tournament showed incredible games and Rogue vs Maru was epic. the winner absoltely deserved the victory . SC2 is better than ever. best players, best balance and best game design since release.
What a series, 10/10. Fantastic Starcraft. Can I just say “at least a million SCVs are going to die” Internet gods please, make a meme of this.
Cameron Miller sure, keep your eyes on 9gag
I was thinking a montage of Maru's SCVs getting killed... or maybe of Rogue killing SCVs. I think you could find footage of a million deaths by this point.
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!
"Better love story than twilight" LOL
to be honest every story is better than twilight, for except 50 shades of gray xD (not sure, never read this)
Both of these players are scary good. Epic match!
I got the replay pack for this. Maru is my favorite terran now. As much as I love Innovation, if you watch the replays between the two its not even close.
That's one of the best series I've ever seen. Game 5 insane!
Great display of sportsmanship by Maru at the end there, with a smile and a bro bump for Rogue. I guess the two are probably friends.
You do know they are teammates?
Where's the guy with the timestamps?
Maru vs Rogue ain't good enough
This should be the final match
Sick last game of rogue
Superb play for Rouge...unpredictable
54:36
It might be just a weekend for you, but these players work hard year round to get where there at.
Watched Rogue run circles around Classic and thought "hmm maybe he can fight against Maru's godly marine pushes"... didn't leave disappointed. But realised they are teammates, there's probably some higher strategic decision to maximise the team possessing the winner of the finals? Maru did well to shut down Rogue's economy in the first 2 games, but what's amazing is Rogue's mind games. And Rogue seems to know his maps better, knows the potential for exploitation better. As teammates they probably practised a ton against each other... they must be cracking their heads wondering which set piece the other is going to create every 5 seconds of each game. The adrenaline...
Too bad that wasn't the Grand final, I needed a bo7 for this one. So did Maru :'(
Probably the best terran player ever
That second game, Maru's banshee harass, fucking amazing.
I always hated games like game 4 It feels like : Yo I have more bases and more units, I will teleport in your base and kill you.
Tagle2 Mec2 my thoughts exactly
They did not even show the final battle! The battle was still fighting and then they cut to the face view and missed the battle! Terrible camera work. Don't cut away from the battle until AFTER the GG! I hate when players GG before the battle is over. But this is even worse. The camera cut away from the battle before the GG.
i really wish they would stop the first person view, so annoying not being able to see everything thats going on, especially during key points in the game
Did Maru sell the match? Team orders maybe?
16:14 Maru God!
1:04:00 rogue's first person, let's see Maru's first person, because I saw only a move banelings and Mary trying to split and run with the SCV's at the same time
Insane series!
52:40 is what "Why the f didn't I finish walling off my natural" looks like.
Maru plays beautifully.
Poor Maru
Gsl 2021 finals preview
AMAZING comeback! wow!
i love maru
i see maru ty and innno doin good - what about the forth horseman, whats buyn up to?xD
we need more bigger maps
11:50 when the observer falls asleep and just stays in the players view forever ;)
good casting though, really nice from the analyst (i assume his the analyst as thats what he does)^^
Zerg OP always has been. Terran player have to multitask way more can make fewer mistakes be way up in economy and still lose
Why Maru wouldn't close the depos at the end of the last game, i don't understand...
That was a close game.
wow, awesome sc2!
who are the casters for these games?
조성주 기뮤진 이병렬 세 명의 진에어 그린윙스가 IEM2018 KATOWICE에서 팀킬매치로 명경기를 양산하다!
Someone know the short music before casters talk each other?
How can a game be balanced if the only way for one race to win is to constantly harass the opponent, cancel or kill multiple hatcheries and so on? If it were truly balanced, you could have both Zerg and Terran sit back and macro up and it would be anyone's game to win. But no, leave a Zerg or Protoss alone for several minutes if you're Terran and you're basically guaranteed to lose. And, even if you do successfully punish the Zerg all through the early and mid-game, there's still a good chance that he can just tech up to ultras or broods and win anyway. We almost saw that happen here; only Maru's godly play kept it from happening. Great series regardless, though.
You mean let terran get ghosts, ravens, liberators and tanks and it's over? Or kill half terran eco and they still outproduce you with mules?
@@BudhaXIII Forgive him he just loves terran :D
mark dave Fercol I get where he's coming from though, the best macro terran in the world(hint:Innovation) is having a pretty rough time right now... maybe he'll invent something in the meantime and this discussion will take a 180° swing...
@@BudhaXIII yeah because we didnt see classic kill 20000 hatches and zerg is still fine with "comeback potential" but as soon as rogue kills classic's one base it was gg. zerg are totally not overpowered
Think rotti meant instrumental, not incremental
wow, epic match. Both are too good already.
What's the music at the beginning ?
:(
:(
Leet Mob - Stay Alive
Ohh Maru. First i thought he'll win :(
at 16:25, this sc2 is too strange, why would a pack of marines run away from a couple of packs of zerglings, this wouldnt happen if medics were available.
Maru is Bae.. I remember Bae from The Frozen Throne
wonder why the pros never make two spore crawlers....
If you let any Zerg player get to the late game it's gg such a stupid overpowered race
Maru, Maru, Maru .... Why did he give up so fast in the 2nd game? I so wanted him in the final.....
roaches armor carapace, 0 tanks
Lol. Not that hard to understand why mate.
GOO ROGUE
nooo Maru this can't be real... you were supposed to destroy everyone in 2018! well don't disappoint me at gsl at least.. i still believe
Still amazing games from Maru in this Katowice tournament, guess a better luck next time against Rogue
I didnt suppose he'll lose
Maru has won the gsl. Hope you're happy
*Barrackses*
TvZ? get 10,000 Banelings and then transition to Broodlords; ez
Not many Rogue fans here
Cheese is Zerg, Zerg is cheesey.
Seems like the bane of Maru is well...banes (and lings)
Only maru play terran ?
who is the best sc2 player alive?
Scarlett
@@kikolapersona No way Scarlett isnt even top ten
This pro wrestling announcer is overqualified for his job
Love Smix :)
That one guy in the back with the Ugandan knuckles board.
anyone know music at 1:07:49 ?
Maru
Mary played badly that last game. He scouted the bane bust, and still left the walk down.
In the last game, Rogue sacrifice his mutalisk for Maru tank. I think that moment Maru must realize Rogue prepare for big ground attack and build more tank.
Maru did make some crucial mistakes. He lost a couple of games due to not closing the walls and turtling more effectively against the rushes that he saw coming.
Maru sold the match.
Awesome
I love StarCraft and eSports. But for the love of god, please STOP going insane during these game intros. It's so insanely cringe worthy.
I thought Tasteless was bad but Maynard was really fucking irritating here. Kind of glad he was starting to lose his voice at some points. We get it, you need to hype a large arena, but not that much.
7:21 "It's hard to control your gurls" ....true, just try controlling one, but seriously dude "Ga HOST" not "Grul" xD i thought the gentlemen "Yelling" added to the "Whole" sportscaster feel, better then being apathetic and droning and butching english, GGWP
If classic is the best Protoss right now then rogues Zerg is godly. He’s in a totally different level 👍
If you think they're good now, wait till you see them with bowls of noodles.
@16:17 imagine if you did that in real life. Ruthless lolol
why 12 dislikes ? and what meta means ?
"Meta" means the most popular build orders and unit compositions and strategies, that are employed in the highest levels of the game at anytime.
Js. I called it.
loses the series because of a poor cc block... wow.
Yup, Maru would have won this series if the depot blocked out the zerglings from getting in allowing the Nydus. Biggest blunder.
what a crappy way to lose
Nah, Rogue wouldv'e just thrown down the nydus in the natural. Sure, that tank would have finished, but I don't think one tank would have saved him.
nydus in natural is far from a game finishing move
So sorry for Maru, I don't know why but Rogue makes me bored
Maru Please stop using those Hellion AKA RC.
Did rotterdam quit smoking weed? He seems a lot more insightful and on point than he did back when he started commentating
Game 5 - Classic is like "sh*t"
he's watching it though. And Rogue > Maru vP
WIDOW MINE!!
Amazing series but... These SK guys need to start addressing and making eye contact with Smix. Their SC game is great, but it wouldn't hurt to start upping their social game a bit, haha. The few and far in between that do come off way more natural and friendly. TLDR: Stop being scared of pretty girls you dorks.
so impressed by maru, wp by both
if life here...
MARU IS THE NEW BW FLASH
I know that each mineral counts but sometimes I feel that for play too "Professional" they forget that to invest in a spore could save a lot of drones or even the hatchery. Anyway, great series.
I swear everytime the zerg goes mass banelings on 200 supply they insta win...
same like terran if they have 100 siege tank/raven supplies
ow cmon we all knew who will get nefred in the upcoming patch
ZvZ please
great game, I thought it was over for Rogue, but then....
The one commentator with his actually is annoying.
Looked to me like maru threw BIG TIME. Many unforced mistakes and game 3 gg was unnecessary
Maru is the Messi of starcraft
Extremely good, but never gets to the very top
Wow, he won a game with nydus cheese. . lol
51:20 "and there is the worm of Rogue"
Beg your pardon, what?! :D
Put a limit on zergling production. Cheeselings is such a cheap strat.
Yeah, 75 lings + 12 banelings + another 60 lings all at once (instantly morphed into banes) is fucking ridiculous. I get that early game they're pretty weak and slow and so two lings for 50 minerals isn't op. But late-game mass cracklings is insane. I can't even count the number of times I've seen a Terran dominating a Zerg, only for the Zerg to come back by doing run-by after run-by with cracklings, knowing Terrans don't have any static ground defenses (apart from planetary fortress) and can't leave much if anything at home if they want to have a chance of beating the main Zerg army out on the map. Now that the anti-armor missile has been nerfed, Terran is weaker than ever.
Comes from the race that produces marines from min 2 until min 52 without needing anything else for a solid comp
nobody is wearing a tie. these guys clearly lack professionalism
