It's a terrible style to end a nice broadcast. All the DH series had the same awful bad habit. The broadcasters made a good job to fill with a nice atmosphere all the matchs and in the end a pretty lame edition ruins all. They would have to take some lessons from GSL.

great job keeping all the breaks in and cutting off the end

[@stevenfalcon2813]

Trap really made a comeback ☺️ thought he was done.. I literally was gonna stop at 3:1but something said stick with it. I thought he was out classed by serial, someone he's never defeated before and was losing major engagements against. It was quite remarkable how he pulled it together and pushed back and defended / countered.

You mean a protoss player beat the best player in the world because he abused skytoss 😂😂

[@StarFury2]

Great day to just sit there and be invincible. Just look at Serial's unit movement, it's like he's connected to the hive mind, flanking separating and managing 3-4 unit groups at once. Yet all he tries is useless as three storms wipe his entire army. Protons OP, as it has been forever.

[@trojan2984]

Wow that last game

[@getrekt3983]

i've seen serral do a thing with infestors in zvp where he infests a probe then makes a nexus and pumps out protos units. i think thats what he wanted to do was get the zerg mothership in game 3

I am so happy for Trap! After the GSL Super Tournament another achievement ;) His playstyle is so cool ^^.

I’ve come back to SC2 videos recently and I can’t believe Serral, the destroyer of tournaments, the manifestation of Zerg itself, can actually loose to Protoss, it’s good to know he’s mortal 😁

[@undertyped1]

[@benjaminjoeBF3]

what an achievement for a musical genre

[@markodarkman1061]

After Zerg late game nerf and Protoss buff , Zerg has to win before Protoss gets the scary golden armada on the late game. Serral has to work on his predictability, he should play every game different, he always does the reacting game where he scouts what his opponent is doing and then reacts but if he doesn't know what his opponent is doing he loses. He should play some crazy builds like Scarlett did to him because now when he can't turtle up defend and wait for late game he is very mortal ,other players that make interesting builds can suprise him and he doesn't like in your face aggressive terrans , that's how Clem beat him.

[@stevenfalcon2813]

When did they nerf Zerg, I know the last time I watched serial play it was mostly Zerg players winning, and everyone wanted them to nerf Zerg. If they did then I'm glad for it

[@QianBing]

Wow feardragon's casting has much improved

Serral lost all games vs Trap's air. Toss air is completely out of hands. Voids are broken in PvZ, and one can feel it in ladder too.

last game Serral need to do mutalisk, mutas counter voidrays, that annoying oracle and zealots. Voids have no match to mutas. Every time he was making queens and hydra but mutas are the best option.

Lets keep sending banelings into storms. Serral is good but really bad at adapting... keeps doing the same time after unsuccessful time

[@trislassis]

[@Zjivarra]

One thing I never understood is why disrupters have to have friendly fire and hurt your own units and banelings don’t? It would make a big difference in the matchup.

[@peterchui1964]

I was watching it live, he was fist bumping and smiling to himself for a good 20 seconds. Big moment for him.

[@Qichar]

I love Serral and I'm always rooting for him, but why would he use the same Hydra / Ling / Bane strategy twice in the same series? Why was it necessary? Serral already knew that Trap's response would be high templar. Why not go for an earlier attack with queen / roach? If Serral doesn't feel good about all-out early aggression, he could always just slow the game down and fake the attack but power up instead. Then Trap's static defenses of cannons and batteries would have just been wasted expense. I'm thinking in a drawn out macro game Serral has proven he is superior to just about everybody. I don't understand why Serral tried EXACTLY the same strategy again, meeting with the same result. It made no sense for a player of Serral's ability and intelligence.

[@JL-jeo012]

he finally did it, wow!! and way to do it too!!!

[@JoshT4life]

Holds after holds and barely got the win. Congrats but it shouldn't be this hard to beat zerg with protoss lol.

[@marsupiallion94]

I mean it’s the best zerg of all time, so probably not a good sample match up. I agree that Protoss was struggling for ages, but now at least they have the better endgame.

[@atrudokht]

He is against the best Zerg player in the world after all

[@OnigoroshiZero]

Amazing defense from Trap in the last game, he is not the best Korean player right now for nothing.

he was desperate, since skytoss was coming. thats why he just quitted after losing that last skirmish. once Skytoss is deployed, you have lost the game.

[@aspenmallery]

Funny. I saw Reynor use the "German Taxi" build on stream very recently. I wonder if Serral took a tab from that.

[@jeevaan6965]

It's been around for a while. Lambo popularized it initially and a lot of other Zergs have picked it up recently.

[@cheapgamer4228]

Isn't Zergs a little OP right now? How is the game balance nowadays?

[@stoobydoobydoo]

That game two was just flawless. It felt like serral put trap against a wall and dominated him. I don't understand going for the ling bane hydra queen walk again. And double commiting to the attack after he knew trap had storm up and running. I felt like if he went for the swarm hosts and staggered the attacks again like he did in game two it would have dominated. He had enough queens to push back any aggression from the void rays.
