TvT last game was so sick, Maru making magic happen with a crazy comp. Cure didn't want a repeat of G1 and got aggressive with bio multiprong but couldn't close out... such a good game.
Why does that make you happy. That just means the game is just totally dead in korea to the point that here are No new players at all Allowing people who took 2 year break to still be top talents just because there are no new talents to replace them.
@@trstnhn but also, herO and Cure have been back at the game longer than they’ve been away from it! I personally wouldn’t credit their performance to mere lack of competition.
Maruuuuuuu, ma boi!! You did it! You did it again! Congrats, you magnificent shy little bastard. Well done, you've made me happy :) Time to train for 9SL now, hehe. Amazing work, enjoy! And btw, good thing it wasn't Stats at the finals. He would've whoop yo ass haha
Serral & Reynor need to enter the GSL so we can really see who's the best of the best, on Maru's home turf. Obviously Serral has better performances Internationally, but in Korea, it's all about Maru. I just wanna see a foreigner make it to the GSL Finals then have either Maru as a final boss, or Dark. Really sucks that TY went to Starcraft Brood War, we'll never know who was actually the TvT GOAT without another TY vs Maru rematch in the Finals.
I look forward to see how Reynor performs next season or Astrea. But let's be honest GSL is now a crowdfunded second tier tournament. Why would for example Serral travel for a few months to Korea to win some change? The prestige and prize pool of this tournament lies in the past. I think this is why we will probably never see Serral in Korea. Ad TY he obviously had Maru's number that's for sure. My fav terran ever.
I loved Maru before it was cool! Plays like no one else. Aggression, risk, game sense and flexibility. He is the best. The Terran, the 4th race, our guy Maru!!!
Maru, my boy, you have always been destined for greatness and no one can deny you your destiny, not even that usurper Serral. Maru, my boy, you must take back what is rightfully yours from that Zerg imposter.
Maru and Hero have funny little interactions after their championship matches. Last time Maru grabs Hero and shakes him, this time Hero raises his fist at Maru. Maru is always so stone faced but not with Hero
This has to have been one of the best seasons of GSL in awhile! Every game since the R16 was amazing! Great casting too, i enjoyed State from the start but seems like they have really clicked now and hes more comfortable. Cant wait for S2!!
These are prolly my favorite Starcraft vods.. great casting simply the best tbh comedy/entertainment and the game play was awesome, not the usual bullshit macro long games.
When you watch Maru doing stuff between matches, like drinking water, does it look his fingers can't straighten all the way out? Is that from too many years of playing??
Those are units or structures you would build by standard in different types of scenarios like counterattack defense with sentries or shield batteries. Getting a couple of obs for scouting the opponent´s tech and army movement, can also be considered as an organic unit decision. 99 of 100 other players would´ve done it the same way, maybe because its the best known reaction to what you face against from the other side. It also is the case that you cannot execute certain builds without having a special tech and/or unit . Try executing a 4-gate blink without building a twilight council or just any build (except 15-probe worker rush) without warping in the most organic building for P, the first pylon. And things you always do on auto-pilot are "organic" actions, like breathing. Take your personal Hotkey settings, when did you really have to remind yourself what key to press to do something?
@@igit_7296 Dark is the exception to that rule, because his style of play results in build decisions, that most other Zerg would consider as unorganic or at least questionable. A "normal move for Dark" means most likely "First you put yourself behind on purpose and then force the coinflip and take the game regardless" kind of move for the "standard" Zerg. The "standard" way is only played by a quite tiny amount of Zergs. Overall, this only means just all Zerg players, that aren´t Dark himself. Thats how Out of the box he plays in general, but he is also very capable to play like the rest if needed. But it already feels weird to watch him play like not being Dark. Cant even imagine how strange it feels for him to play apart from his own way...
That was awesome but PvT really can look so rubbish. Can count on one hand the times I remember seeing a P win 'quickly' Vs Cure or Maru. Her0 had to roll dice to get the big W. Feels like I can guess who won just by looking at the length of the vod. GG.
Why did they ruin the finals by doing 2 mirror matches in semi? It was clear Hero would win against Stat but Stats had a way better chance of winning against Maru
Maru thinks he is lucky because Serral went to the army, but he will get blasted to pieces by Clem in any big tournament outside of Korea now that Serral is not there to crush him himself.
Serral still won’t do a long form tournament against top tier competition like GSL. Part of his greatness relies on the fact that Zerg can play reactionary and fares far better in single weekend tournaments where you don’t get time to prepare for a single opponent. To be the undisputed goat Serral needs to win a regular GSL tournament. Not a GSL vs the World, not a GSL Super Tournament. Regular GSL. I hope he does it one day because it’s what everyone would want to see.
i love it when maru wins every GSL and no one complains and everyone is so excited about maru keep making GSL history, but when serral wins everything else and makes actual esports history everyone complains and keeps asking zerg nerfs regardless of every other zerg player strungling.
Every other zerg player like Rogue, Dark, Reynor struggled so hard so only zerg dominated premier tournaments for only a decade now Jesus, grow a brain
Maru up 2-1, video is almost over, so you know he wins 4-1. What a waste. It's been 25 years and you still refuse to put anti spoiler time at the end of the videos.
@@zdaar Some people just argue for the sake of the argument, they are not really searching for a working solution to their issue. It contradicts to having a still unsolved issue that they can ride to decease for the whateverst time in 1300 years of being a dick.

GOD, I love this show. I rue the day it's gone!
Rue it so hard
Let's hope it's got awhile left
Maru is singlehandedly keeping me interested in this game
Literally same
Maru games are the most exciting to watch.
daaaaamn the air style from maru, the ladder's gonna be fun the next couple of weeks
Ok, hear me out: the duet of Tasteless and State should be called Stateless.
Tastestate, surely
Statetaste @@LasseLundster
I vote for the world to be called Stateless, anyone else agree
That Maru kid is pretty good. He might have a future in this sport.
And you might have a future in comedy with original jokes like that
@@tuhaggis I haven't heard the joke. Original to me.
After Serral retired, correct.
@@user-gi9zz7iz9l Serral is so scared to join GSL ...😂🤣
@user-gi9zz7iz9l Yeah because he is bad at the game since Serral exists. That makes so much sense!
TvT last game was so sick, Maru making magic happen with a crazy comp. Cure didn't want a repeat of G1 and got aggressive with bio multiprong but couldn't close out... such a good game.
Three out of the four Ro4 contestants have all completed their military service already. That makes me happy
I think Maru is exempted because he won a gold for Korea. I can't remember what the tournament was

Great tournament. I hope Stats continues to do well
This is the 1st season since 2012 that I haven't watched on a daily basis. I miss you StarCraft
This was the best season in recent memory for me. Plus Rogue and Reynor in S2 is going to be great
1:31:38 this is the best commentary lol!!!!
for a moment it was really cooL!
Legit best casting moment ever :D if tasteless didn't ruin it a bit, it would be perfect
Winning 8 GSL´s is such an amazing and nigh unbelievable feat.
Congrats, Maru. Legend!
The TvT games were so entertaining. Congrats Maru. Want to see Mari v Serral classic.
This final match was just mindblowing, I never expected THIS player to finally take the whole season home!
SPOILER WARNING!
*sarcasm mode off*
Really great analysis on new TvT meta by State! Nice commentaries.
Another great season of GSL!
MARU is the GOAT!
Crazy how dominant Maru was this series. If only he could do that in the non-Korean offline tournaments....
LOVED THE BEHIND PLAYER TALK SERIES ❤
Amazing translations on the fly.. Enjoyed watching the show alot. Ty state ty tasteless
It's refreshing to see a TvT without mass cyclones.
Congrats, champ! STARCRAFT FOREVER!
Thanks for such an amazing tournament AfreecaTV!! See you in S2!! Hope you guys keep doing GSL forever :)
Another amazing tournament guys.
Was hoping Stats would do better. Maru is so consistent 👏
great series as usual! keep it up
What an epic day of Starcraft. Thanks gents for the broadcast!
Maruuuuuuu, ma boi!! You did it! You did it again! Congrats, you magnificent shy little bastard. Well done, you've made me happy :)
Time to train for 9SL now, hehe. Amazing work, enjoy!
And btw, good thing it wasn't Stats at the finals. He would've whoop yo ass haha
"protoss can't even count that high" bro I loled.
Do they give credit to the musicians of the songs they play? I don't see any of it in the episode details.
this game is amazing.. Merry G8L!
The confetti again 😂🎉
pumped to watch
Amazing games. Thanks GSL and AfreecaTV.

Reynor played in GSL last season and was out in the round of 32 lol

The Terran, the 4th race, our guy
Maru!!!
insane games
Cure has a lot of something @1:50:32
GG! Long live GSL. Been here since the beginning, through it all. I hope this isn't the last one.
herO gonna be my nickname in coming games that boy is dope
damnnnn what a great TvT
I truly love GSL
Stats its super fun to watch!
Maru reivented the TvT, looks so funny the playstyle!
Maru, my boy, you have always been destined for greatness and no one can deny you your destiny, not even that usurper Serral. Maru, my boy, you must take back what is rightfully yours from that Zerg imposter.
I'm proud of my son Maru

Cant wait for S2!!
Maru is not only the best player in the world, he’s the best of all time, he has the most enjoyable games and one of the most enjoyable play styles.
Maru has definitely proved he is the best Terran in Korea! Great job by him!
speak for yourself, i can hardly stand watching him. and he makes GSLs boring by winning too much, lol.
Serral is the best player in the world. Maru is the best Korean Terran though for sure.
Serral deniers be coping
@@dhelsel89 Serral is the best at abusing a broken race, Maru is the best player
These are prolly my favorite Starcraft vods.. great casting simply the best tbh comedy/entertainment and the game play was awesome, not the usual bullshit macro long games.
3:16:38 voice of GSL! 🤣
GEEEE GEEE!!!!!!
FROM THE STREETS TO THE SEATS TO THE NOSEBLEEDS
Maru is the GOAT of sc2, there is no debate at this point.
what's the track that plays at 1:08:00?
The new and improved version of Maru. He got patched!
BCs forever. ❤
someone wanna ask herO why he always wearing a gold chain its dope on him
That's one of the cool things about him. Win or lose, Hero has style!
Maru!!!!

Maru vs Cure game 3 is a riot. what the f
When Tasteless talks about “organic” observers and “organic” templars in game 3, what does that mean?
Those are units or structures you would build by standard in different types of scenarios like counterattack defense with sentries or shield batteries. Getting a couple of obs for scouting the opponent´s tech and army movement, can also be considered as an organic unit decision. 99 of 100 other players would´ve done it the same way, maybe because its the best known reaction to what you face against from the other side.

Try executing a 4-gate blink without building a twilight council or just any build (except 15-probe worker rush) without warping in the most organic building for P, the first pylon. And things you always do on auto-pilot are "organic" actions, like breathing. Take your personal Hotkey settings, when did you really have to remind yourself what key to press to do something?
@@martinkaleczinski9481 so they are just normal build order decisions?
That means someone like Dark would be an inorganic player?
@@igit_7296 Dark is the exception to that rule, because his style of play results in build decisions, that most other Zerg would consider as unorganic or at least questionable.

Feels like I can guess who won just by looking at the length of the vod.
GG.
Why did they ruin the finals by doing 2 mirror matches in semi? It was clear Hero would win against Stat but Stats had a way better chance of winning against Maru
Transitions are a bit too over the top
gsl + sc2 4ever
GOD DAMN, this MAru guy is on steroids?
Maruuuuuuuu
when another maru vs life
When you see Maru just laugh at a map loss in the finals of GSL you know he’s gonna smash you
Damn if Maru had just won Katowice against Time, he would easily be among Rogue and Serral as the best ever. He just needs that world championship
emp op
EMP should be able to target single unit only. Not gonna discuss it
Omg, rogue WILL BE BACK! The best Zerg of all time.
Immortals are underrated in pvp
I really miss Tastosis
You know, you can sell casting rights to Cable Providers in the US GSL.
Start with PPV live. try to strike a deal with League promoters.
Maru needs to make these games more entertaining. I remember TY and Rogue always used to go for the win instead of entertaining the fans.
1:50:26 Maru has a lot of Dropsh*ts 😂
