Wooooow that last game was crazy. One of the most entertaining games I've ever seen

[@sorenlarssen27]

Talk about a see saw

[@bleepblorpp]

insane

[@paulhamtorlia3039]

I think Byun realized he shouldn't be losing to DRG and the reason why he was because he was still bothered by his defeat against Maru.

[@noflame6061]

Holy fuck....idk what to say...just insane holy

[@floodo1]

scrappiest game ever.

[@R0binah00d]

Please don’t let this be the last year

[@michaelsander2878]

It will be. They aren't putting in much effort for this year. The live stream was GARBAGE and they used a 2012 strategy to try to get people to go to their website instead of watching on youtube.

[@R0binah00d]

@@michaelsander2878 Well if enough people put into the Patreon things will get better. They are doing the best they can with 20% of their normal funding. Sorry they weren't up to your standards when running at 20% power. They already fixed the mistake they made with the KZbin overlay. They can fix many more things. If people actually help. I already paid my 31.91$. Have you? If not maybe stop being so judgmental.

[@havinfun44884488]

I personally have a lot of fun watching since 2012-13. It slowly declined and Blizzard never attempted any significant improvements or changes. Hopefully the new one from Frost Giant called Stormgate takes off.

[@tigera6]

@@asicveg No, its the other way around. Blizzard didnt try to invest into the game as they should have, and in the end they left it to die. The game is still fun to some people out there, and would be a better attraction if the developer has a good vision and commit to it. Just look at AoE2, the game has been out for 20+ years, even longer than SC2, and yet it still has an espost scene and support. Thats because the game developer CARES about making it better with constant development/patches/changes over the years. We are at the current states, in large part because Blizzard dropped the ball.

[@nfcheeze]

Maru and Byun have such a funny relationship.

They make six figures , you're literally just giving money away to the rich

[@jbthomas01]

@@Qpwueyeyqh Ok Robin Hood. They make money doing there job. If there's not enough profit to make it worthwhile, the players and Afreeca would stop doing it. Thanks for explaining how that works. Nobody else would know that otherwise.

@@Qpwueyeyqh you definitely exposed something.

[@jbthomas01]

@@Qpwueyeyqh So your big industry inside scoop is that people get paid what there industry thinks they're worth? And that Maru won't give me a direct shout out every time I give 5 bucks for a patreon? Wow. This changes everything! These revelations can only be reveled by someone in the entertainment industry for years. Thanks hero. Now go back to your free VOD on someone else's dime. What suckers they are.

[@misterringer]

Looks like they listen. Fixed the banner area. Thanks AfreecaTV!

[@honzaklos]

I think they didn't 'fix' anything. I expect next live streams to be as the one today - and just the videos uploaded afterwards to be fullscreen. We shall see...

[@misterringer]

@@honzaklos Oh I see. I thought this was a repost of the vid they released earlier today that got a lot of negative feedback. Perhaps I misunderstood.

[@snoopyt7]

that last game was absolutely insane!

[@RedFusion]

Hey Afreecatv -- I know these aren't filmed live anymore, but how about broadcasting the VOD live -- so at least for those of us who can catch it live, we can all watch together :)

[@Liveeruptsuj]

Nightmare fought with honor near the end of game one. All those holds, one after another, with tiny numbers of units. Really top tier. @Harstem should cast this one, it's a beautiful Protoss moment.

[@monkeybunny89]

That last game was one of the best game I've ever seen just because we know how much it means for both of them to advance

[@danieln6700]

2:39:24 GYURI ❤ best wishes

[@helloken]

Yeah, Artosis, now Gyuri, it's the end of an era. I don't know how it is in Korea, but in the previous century and possibly even now in Japan, men workers were prioritized over women. Gyuri is married now and they may have decided cutting Gyuri was just one more way to cut costs (on top of only having offline matches starting with RO4, and other things they may have cut etc. etc.). Just smaller budget man, they are trying something to see if they can get it to work and if they get enough support. Totally not backed with any evidence, it's totally guessing. Except Gyuri being married, I believe that is factual.

[@aadil999]

@@helloken I don't think it had anything to do with her being married, just there's very little point in having her there as an interviewer if they're only going to play in the studio once a season. Caster Park already has plenty of experience being an interviewer on top of being a caster, so if they're downsizing so much it makes sense to just have him do both rather than retaining Gyuri as well.

[@enriconolasco8124]

always nice to boot up and see some maru gamery

[@iamLI3]

i almost always avoid the comments till after im done watching a starleague vid , but this time i did happen to look at the comments before finishing the video , and i am super glad i did , because i saw lots of comments mentioning how insane the last game was , which gave me anticipation for it and MAN is that ever paying off right now i also see many comments discussing it's dying esport status thanks to blizard(activision) , such a shame , sc2 is such a great game , i don't want to see the second hardest game in the world die out

ive been out of the game for 5yrs. where do we get replays now? most sites seem dead or lagging any recent matches.

If you mean actual replay files, it seems like for this season Afreeca is giving replays as part of the donator perks. If you just mean VODs, Afreeca and ESL upload all their games to their KZbin channels.

First game made Maru realized he can't beat Byun in a straight up micro game so he exploited the latter's weak macro with his superior macro. The window mine was the beginning of Byun's demise.

That last game proved once more that Zerg being unable to make eco and army at the same time is precisely the reason why it will never win another GSL. We finally learned as terrans that if we just never stop attacking, the zerg will never recover.
