Jesus christ the production of this tourney is top tier!

[@juny9445]

Facts.the koreans may have not make it to grandfinals..but the production of theirs is spetacular

They have a lot of experience in all this!

[@hyperion808gaming7]

all of the gsl and korean hosted esports events are all professional. not like the US

[@deniswagner3435]

These intros are absolute fire!!! Blizzcon take note because this is what we want this year!

The intro is amazing...

[@엠파즈의성공인사이트]

첫 경기 7분, 두 번째 경기 5분만에 떡실신시키고 아무것도 아니라는 듯 물 마시는거 핵간지네 Serral drinks water after knocking out Elazer in 7 minutes and 5 minutes consecutively, like it's a piece of cake. I never thought starcraft 2 player could look so badass playing starcraft 2

[@TheKarantan]

7:44 finally a good handshake between 2 pro gamers

[@schouffy]

True, there is really a charisma issue with most SC players. This was fine.

[@MrDuckford-oO]

The one thing I absolutely love about this Grand Final is that they are showing the non-Korean players proper respect. Even though their National pride is in pieces.

[@analogGigabyte]

What an awesome production this was. LOVED it.

[@Alinhox]

At 6:30 Serral predicted the result correctly - what a legend he is

[@Bdrbs]

He lost 2 games on purpose so he would be correct

[@Operations1000]

@@Bdrbs So this lol

[@lallarolle]

21:05 is the second moment

[@Jyonderchild]

this production quality is crazy

[@Handle35667]

It’s fine. I’m new to Starcraft esports but other esport games the production value is higher. Tbh I thought SC would be better since it’s been an esport longer than nearly ever genre

[@100thMkey]

I love the Production that goes into these

[@iunary]

XDDD oh god i love how serrals trash talk is the most understated thing ever

Serral is not zerg. He has transcended to Xel'Naga

[@miptzi]

look Elazer's face when Serral's units backstab his main in game 2, its PRICELESS

[@hyperion808gaming7]

when you are so good that even the casters and observers dont know how you got into the base LOL

[@Furnus105]

Anyone know what chairs theyre using?

[@YumYums26]

Can anyone name the song that plays at 19:59 - 20:38?

[@githreepi136]

I Love this series

[@ennans]

Rotti's serral impression is too good.

[@The1stKing]

6:23 i love how he answered honestly. It is so easy to be politically correct and don't answer these kind of questions. What a great guy.

[@Goldfox2112]

lmao how long were they standing there in anticipation xD the prod team musta been like OK U TWO STAND THERE AND LOOK LIKE BADASSES

[@anthonymatias7991]

best hype intro ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@houstonwehaveaproblem4187]

Those nydus worms were brutal

[@Durgenheim]

In game 2 when Elazer was walling off, I immediately thought "nydus" - and the camera panned over to Serral, who already had one on the way.

[@petercriscuola]

Nydus is ruining the game

[@theeraphatsunthornwit6266]

Werent they on the same world side earlier?

[@SavedbyHim]

Why can't the commentators just wear normal mics?

[@dominiksafranek853]

Lol that geeky trash talk is so awesome!

[@Catharsis-lu5xr]

I'd watch this over football any day.

[@shikore22]

Goodjob Serral for winnig b2b GSL champion, well deserved. Would love to see Inno or Maru against Serral in Blizzcon they are the only 2 players that can keep up Serral multi-tasking

[@Whalery]

Unfortunately, Innovation couldn't join this year Blizzcon since his point didn't reach the cut-in standing. He lost GSL ss3 in round of 32 as well, no chance to obtain enough point for WCS Grand Final.

[@bilijeanz]

Do you think Serral will participate at Dreamhack Montreal?

[@StarcraftSquall]

It’s one of the three major WCS spots he will definitely be there - if he wins his first Bo5 on Saturday in EU Challenger against uThermal 😆 in fact Blizzard will pay for his trip

[@JavierFlores-lz2hy]

[@lelouchvibritannia7809]

This is War - No Resolve

[@juha00juha]

After watching this part 1 and the first two games: yeah, I could really hear the fear in Serrals voice...

[@darkphoenix00001]

Lol yeah it really felt like he was speed-running this series

[@bmtenoch8230]

Today is a day of Starcraft, no matter who wins, Starcraft 2 will win :)

[@Seaneey]

Top 3 vs #1 in the world. Uphill matches you have there.

[@aidenwhiting5131]

Elazer is supposed to be top 3 in the world now?

[@Seaneey]

@@aidenwhiting5131 Top 3 in the tournament 🙄 idiot🤦‍♂️

[@ricodelta1]

the crowd size seems to be a little.....small

[@Smelly13]

After serral lost last semi finals I was happy to see him in the finals, again haha

[@zest2932]

Where's Maru? :/

[@TheBenirons]

game two: all elazer neded to do is cover his blind spots in his main with 1-2 of his many, many overlords.... rookie mistake i keep seeing made a lot, hope he learned from it this time

[@Operations1000]

*#8 2060 P vs #1 7060 P* (Current WCS and GSL vs the World Champion) "Past in this tournament hasn't mattered at all" Me: Mmmm, does it not though? Does it really not? No sorry, Serral wins hands down. Enough of this fantasy world shit, let's just be happy for a Foreigner finals shall we? Thank you Rotterdam!

[@lucasmilik7626]

If Serral gets a nydus in your base, you already lost.

[@darkphoenix00001]

when that worm gets up in your main you know you're in a world of trouble. especially if you weren't expecting it because of how fast it releases it's load :)

[@robertmurry1442]

that dude at 21:43.... MASSIVE BURN!!!!11

[@raernian6026]

Vision. It's hard to be watching everything at near the same time. You can spam the roach key all you want, but if you don't use your eyes you lose your lives.

[@buff3dn3rf26]

Serral is modest and i love it. The over cocky players from any game or sport are the ones that make themselves ugly on the outside and in. I could tell that when Serral seemed even the slightest cocky or talked shit hes doing it in fun and respect for his opponent. He even looked Elazer in the eye when he was forced to answer the dumb question about predicting the end score. Hes such a pro he wants the end result or score to be the deciding factor. In regards who is the better player I feel like Elazer has been a cocky little turd this entire event. However when he got on that big stage and realized Serral is his father he stfu.'' Not only that but Serral doesnt do that silly blowfish face when he drinks water like ever other sc2 player on earth.

[@mynickisrick1478]

That white "V" at the bottom center of the t-shirt, on Special looks like his trousers have broken.

[@patdarko3063]

Haha that crowd is lively... 😂😂😂

[@jakoboddsson6329]

gsl vs the world is a great production ! however I don't care if tastosis isn't casting tbh

[@1dustbranch111]

These casters got the worst luck :D funny deja vu from last GSL vs world, can't believe it's already been a year since then

[@zes3813]

no such thing as pride or beat or big or not, doesn't matter, cepux, do, be any no matter what and any be perfect

[@pauledwards2052]

zvz finals, and 6 of the top 8 are Zerg. But i'm sure there is not an op race. :)

[@skyesthelimit6792]

Yeah thats what one of the pros were saying. Every ones going by what the top ranking races are but not looking at all ranks and top races. Its very balanced as a whole not just by looking at the top 10 in the world.

[@brofenix]

"The Lord of Circuit" Electronics....what a terrible nickname. Lol the English at the beginning was so Korean.

[@jaemurl]

JUST OP AF

[@ic5994]

I don't understand, where are the cliche comments like: "Pro levels: Beginner Moderate Brilliant Asian" or "Roses are red Violets are blue There is always an Asian better than you " ??????????

Why isnt blizzard fixing zerg eco? Its the only race in lotv that can instantly remake 30+ drones in under a second

[@kuugeli]

They'd have to change how the race works. That is like saying when will they fix terran buildings. they are the only ones that can fly.

[@darkphoenix00001]

Zerg is also the only race that has to choose between army units and drones. It's an extremely delicate balance.

[@ultralord8919]

ZvZ is the lamest matchup by far

[@TheVanillatech]

So fucking angry with Maru. Of all the times he picks to slack off and play like crap, a bunch of skinny white boys (and one big fat white boy) are ready step up and slap Korea! Was an interesting tourney but seriously ... Maru ... get back on the horse, and FAST! XD

Anyone still think zerg isn't completely op?...GSL, GSL Vs(both finalists), and general dominance. They have an easy answer to everything. I remember TY completely outplaying serral in early game killing loads of workers, and still getting rolled midgame during their matches...joke of imbalance. Infestors are way more OP than anti armour missiles ever were. Not to mention the free damage of swarm hosts, free damage of brood lords and ultra tankiness of corruptors....the list goes on and on.
