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.

I've been watching these casts for the last month or two, and I'm coming back here purely because I've seen Winter fanboy over both Dark and Serral so hard that I am now caught up in the infection, and are ridiculously excited to watch both the gaming and how much I believe you'll enjoy this. Love what you do 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

@scrotusmaximus3043 7 месяцев назад

When Serral was asked who the best player in the world was, he simply said: Serral.

@B1gLupu 7 месяцев назад

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.

@alltat 7 месяцев назад

Worth noting is that Dark did better than Serral in that tournament. Out of everyone answering, Dark came closest to being correct.

@avetl 7 месяцев назад

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.

@salvocampoli 2 месяца назад

Exactly this was a pure chess match and Serral destroyed Dark with class like the best Carlson does against any opponent. Innate class.

@Daniel-rd6st 7 месяцев назад

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!

@empirate100 7 месяцев назад

@@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.

Fun Fact: Dehaka, a Heart of the Swarm Zerg story character, is the only Zerg specimen that is known to have hair - a scraggly beard on his chin. Some might consider Sarah Kerrigan's Zerg form to have hair, but all references I could find to her transformation canonically describe it as segmented stalks or tendrils, mostly believed to be the mechanism by which she exerts control over the Zerg.

@salvocampoli 2 месяца назад

Serral is so superior to everyone else that it seems like he's playing another game, he's a monster. He defeated Dark so badly that it's almost impossible to describe...

@mickaelmalove2553 7 месяцев назад

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.

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.*
