Amazing how the SC2 pro scene has lasted to 2024.
It's growing. The finals had ~70k live viewers
i just got into it....
Best esport IMO makes it look like these guys are generals in the 25th century.
these kids today are so smart they want sc2 not dumb cod
amazing how blizzard dropped the ball
Dark: wins the first game
Serral: And I took that personally
Only map he lost the whole tournament
Serral, the Air Jordan of SC2.
@@empirate100I'd say him playing those keys makes him more of a Beethoven 😂
It's pretty amazing that serral, in the past, was the player that played somewhat timid in ZvZ with standard builds, not really committing either way (eco or aggressive) and getting rolled time and time again by other zergs who committed way harder, especially rogue.
This now turned exactly the other way round with dark playing somewhat standard builds, sometimes with a bit of early aggression but not very committed. And when serral DOES play standard, he just play better than the opponent, constant scouting, insanely good unit movement, does not forget the upgrades, amazing player.
I'm a fanboy my god.
Watching him is like watching any goat in any other sport. Plus in offline tournaments he gets powered up.
When Serral was asked who the best player in the world was, he simply said: Serral.
I think the question was "who is the favorite for this tournament" they both said themself. Serral is generally really modest and he avoids boasting at all times.
Worth noting is that Dark did better than Serral in that tournament. Out of everyone answering, Dark came closest to being correct.
@@alltat He didn't. Serral dropped ONE map during the whole tournament, while Dark dropped 6 before losing to Serral 1:3.
@@KYesterRrI mean the tournament where they asked everyone who they thought would win, not IEM.
And then he would add:
“But he’s not very good”
That wall in game 3 tho… 🔥
Not just a wall, but an entire golden castle.
Showing all them Protoss how to wall off against Zerg, and doing it on an exposed gold base no less!
I imagine Serral's every idle braincell just going: Bass line: "Doo do do do! Do do! Do do! *can't touch this!*" on repeat! :D
Yesterday, I watched the finals between Serral and Maru first on ESL Archives (I wanted to see their faces ... Maru's smile after receiving the 4th fungal growth in a row was impeccable), and then here, and now I've realized that I am indeed addicted to watching SCII matches again :D
Serral showing all the Protoss how to properly wall off against Zerg, and he did it on an exposed gold base!
The ZvZ stress is real.
I really appreciate you sprinkling in mirror matchups as I have other top players outdo each other with the same tools. Keep up the good work!
Dark was the only one who made Serral bend on the last tournament. Bend, but not break.
That third game was pretty amazing with Serrals roachwall, I have never seen someone doing it quite as dedicated like that. He even had a double roach wall on the ramp to his main (you dont see it in this cast, but in the original IEM cast it was shown, 2x3 roaches with some space in between them) so if banes were to breach the first wall, there would still be a wall to fall back to. Simply amazing!
A consulting firm for larvae does sound like a pretty standard business.
Serral wall off his base as zerg better than HerO against Dark.
hero is known for his aggression, but his defence is suck
Dark was the only person who won ONE map against Serral. He went 20-1 in his journey to be world champion.
2 of my favourite zerg players against each other, this is a dream come true....again!
Serral just dug in his couch cushion and found some extra drones
It takes Dark to make serral look so brilliant
Hilarious matchup and beautifully chaotic
Love how after a few games they kinda stop the early super micro aggression so not to short-circuit their own brains
This might be the first ZvZ that I thoroughly enjoyed watching. As always, thank you Winter for the insight.
Thank You
Om nom nom
The only one to make Serral bleed
To me it looked like gold wall-in was in pocket for long time, but at last played now. Just amazing.
@@tondekoddar7837 That definitely looked very well thought out - building placement, how many roaches are needed to block the space between, queen blocking the back door... beautiful. At one point he even pulled out a roach, and the space was blocked by an egg in the meantime.
While the box art of SC1 and campaign of vanilla SC2 highlight the terrans, the zerg are unquestioningly the legacy of starcraft. You can say X zerged Y, and people who have never played starcraft know what you're talking about (citation required, because there's probably not very many that never played starcraft). The Toss are cool and made a mark in cards against humanity, and the terrans do a good job of not just being "average", but the zerg introduced an entirely new and wonderfully creative thing to the world of sci fi.
25:52 this is literally .. GOLD xD
yes. Both physically and metaphorically
Just wall as Zerg is sometimes I didn’t think I’d see, what a view.
Winter's confusion and amazement at Serral's roach/evo wall amuses me.
It was in this match, not against Maru, Serral showed he was the ultimate champion. ZvZ is luck multiplied by micro, but Serral turned it into chess. That's when he became the GOAT.
I watched the game live and I'm thrilled watching it again with Winter casting it
ooooh the first time i see a professionnal zvz, thank you for casting it !!!
Great games & witty commentary.. thx!
The only person makes serral look mortal 😂
I concur, this mirror is dope.
Getting around to this video today. Always love me some Dark but man am I excited to watch some Serral as well.
26:20 winter got a zergasm and was so fullfill he didnt wanna talk no more ! 😂
love the "the other side" intro.
And Happy Valentines Day to you!!! ❤
I'd love to see more mirror matchups!
Serral isn’t even old enough to know what a phone book is Bahaha 😅😅 great casting
You can't get over that wall? You're in good company; neither could Dark.
Two overseers passing in the night....
Serral may start a series with "pretty standard business", but after that i imagine him thinking in Abathur's voice:
*Design must be simple, elegant. Implementation less so. Sequences must change. Intent static. Product fluid*
*Work harder. Better. Make faster. Stronger. Evolution never over.*
I love dark’s confidence to say he’s the best. I’m not even kidding. Believe in yourself, dark. You’re absolutely goated.
The zerg have discovered wall technology.
Serral just casually making a better wall than most Protoss using roaches lmao
That third game was something else
We sure Serral isn't borg?
That picture of the power rankings is killing me bro.
hahaha indeed, the numbers dont lie.
In game 2, something happened to Dark's +2 ranged upgrade. It started, then went back to 0 and stayed there for a while, then jumped back and continued, but very delayed. That must have been a contaminate. I didn't know the production tab showed it that way, so it confused me for a while, but there was an overseer around, so that must have been it, right?
Yeah, it actually got contaminated several times, at least twice.
Oh boy what a treat
omg game 2 was great, Zerg mirrors are actually fun to watch sometimes but dark and serral is a treat. Great job Winter on that game2!! loled so much
Serral:
The Colgate of SC2
“The lions sing and the hills take flight. The moon by day, and the sun by night. Blind woman, deaf man, jackdaw fool. Let the Lord of Chaos rule. "
Serral showing terran and protoss how to wall off open gold expansions against zerg there
If Serral decided to master other races he'd still win IMO maybe his random isn't so goated in a pro level but who knows, maybe if they all played random perhaps.
@@MarlonSolisFallas Apparently he has already said that he finds playing Terran "boring".
I feel like StarCraft 2 is less about what race you want to play, and more about what race you can’t stand the mirror match against. I gotta say I love Zerg but it’s the most stressful mirror match to play!
Serral vs Reynor, (when Reynor is on top of his game), is the most exciting mirror match.
The Dark is Darkest Before the Dark.
Great series, mirror or not. More ZvZ? Idk, if it's like this, YES PLEASE. More Serral vs Dark anyday. More Dark vs anyone anyday. More Serral vs anyone anyday. I love what these people are doing, and love how you present, mate, big thank + have a nice day
25:50 for The scene
A phone book is a book that looks like a phone dur.
game 3 was really something.
serrals dad has flown across the ocean
I dont usuually watch mirror matches..but serral and dark??? Lets gooo
I love the expression, a knife fight in a phone booth”. However, for the younglings maybe we should change it to a knife fight in a bath stall?
A boxing match in a steel drum
@@MarlonSolisFallas
Thunderdome
"like a knife fight in a phone box"
Dark: Tell me, do you bleed?
Serral: ....
Dark: You will.
Then he put some Maru paste on the wound, and everything was ok.
I mean, mainly dark bled in those games lul.
I love ZvZ its just chaos and I love it
It's like a sophisticated ant war
I don't play the game, but really enjoy to watch. But I havet 1 question; If it is zerg vs zerg will both have movement speed on eachother creep? Thanks for the content🙈☺️
Yeah, creep doesn't care whos units they are and will boost opponents movement speed as well
@@raestlin86 thanks alot for the answer🥰
I main Zerg, was master for some years, but man zvz is so stressful... Got to end it quickly... Find the damage or die trying XD
"I've never been so excited for a mere match-up", hmmm?
that guy is on top for how long now? its insane hes probably outperforming moon from wc3 at this point no?
Serral the GOAT
Serral is a fucking monster
Funny, I thought that one person out of 10 top players in the world who didn't agree to that Serral is the GOAT could only have been Serral himself.
Woooow, game 3. Guess he finally started taking ZvZ seriously after last year.
Watch, the roach wall becomes new meta
I watch these videos because the commentator is so good.
Dark is the Final Boss of the game, but Serral is the main character.
ZVZ is wild
Hey my favorite matchup is PVP mirror matchup on top 🎉😢❤😮
More mirror matches!!!!
I mean, anyone not watching ? Both go BRR
If Serral were the Final Boss, we probably would never won the game
Woo
As an 81.35 IQ Normie I can't wait to copy Serral on the Ladder
Winter asking for likes and subscribe is so smooth and not more than a week he already got 1k subscribers
So, for me, it works very easy:
1: the video pops up on my notifications
2: i click it
3: click on like on the video
4: just enjoy the game and the cast
Easy isn't it?
OMG Zerg OP... Oh wait... its just Serral, nvm guys.
1. Jimmy ..how mutch likes...1k blah blah...but i cast an other one anyways.
2. Brenda... get of my Ceeeeep :D
3. I blacked out for a second :D
4. ?
Serral or serial killer rhymes the same.
~~spoiler~~

serral: walls it anyway, skips ling phase completely, owns the place
Nerf Serral !! :)
I hate ZvZ more than Reynor. But Serral vs Dark? Oooh yeaaa...
Easy
Keep up those shamless plugs for likes dude! I'd forget otherwise!
Love all your videos
Ricky does not approve this series.
it is clear that zerg is easy mode.
Yeah, if you ignore the hardest macro mechanics and flimsy army that can't trade well until late.
You make every day just a little bit better! 🫡
