[@sonhuynh817]

No protoss get close to Maru as Hero would. Hero is an amazing player

[@Andyusa11]

He lost to Maru just because Terran is massive OP

[@HolyMith]

Try not to spoiler in the comments section please. Kind of made this a quarter as fun for me.

[@sedawk]

Zombi and Roddy are amazing together - for me they are equal to the great casting Archon.

[@derfgis6274]

this just show that terran is really hard to fight in a late game. Hero’s only chance is to be hyper aggressive at start until middle other strategies wont work

[@victorlu2313]

Maru's late game as usual is the best.

game of the year! very sad that hero lost, he was sooo good and made alot unexpected moves there, was very close and intense , love this game!

Then maruh maruh got grounded hard by the Finnish legend Seroll

[@bt920]

GREAT FUCKING GAME!!! herO is my HERO

[@bingfang7078]

who is the hero? it is viking.

[@vancelancedance7194]

These casters were being so unfair towards hero in the last game. They never checked his resources, infrastructure or pop before trying to be so smart abt a sudden ground transition. How many robo did hero have? how much time did he have? how much gas did he have? AND fyi vikings and liberators come from the same terran facility

[@3dQQ]

omg..... so crazy match

She’s a cute American woman with zombie in her name. Your username is lolitaredneckzombie. Of course she’s your favorite lol

Judging by your name of course she’s your favorite

I think Zgrub and Wardi are the best!

​@@thezzach• and PiG + ZG combo. They know just how to bounce off each other, They know how to pass the play-by-plays back and forth and have really really good chemistry. 👌🏽

zombie is beautiful by the way.

[@yunfanfan9452]

Clem still needs to learn from Maru, who's the most complete Terran in the last two years. But Maru at Clem's age wasn't as scarily good as Clem is. I can't wait to see Clem develop more strategy-wise. Skill-wise, he's already better than any Terran ever, and that says a lot.

[@rat2244]

I agreed with most of what you said except when you said he's the best skilled terran ever. That no doubt belongs to maru. Clem might have some eyepopping micro skills but maru has always been the best late game terran for a long time.

[@sage4670]

Maru at clem's age had already won several starleagues during a period that was more competitive. In context, maru has always been scarier than any version of clem

[@axilirate9973]

​@@sage4670agree its the consistency that matters not a one time season winner

[@Wikingdew]

​@@sage4670 Most people agree the game has become more complicated and nuanced, comparing apples and oranges and 6 other just as stupid people agree

[@bonesaq9314]

What are you talking about? Clem is 5 years younger than Maru, so 5 years ago it was 2019. In 2018, Maru had already achieved three consecutive GSL championships. Not to mention, Maru won the OSL championship at the age of 16. Clem only won his first Premier tier championship at 18.

[@pingkai]

He just want to take a win with carriers.

[@user-np7di6wu1q]

spoiler shi.t maru breaks hero again haha

[@Ypulse]

This match was fixed. No sane protoss player goes carrier ever, especially vs terran bio.

[@jkkim6928]

Hero fell for the carrier trap 😂 I bet carrier is a Trojan horse invented by Terran to snatch an ez win in the late game

[@horzaza]

❤

[@alk672]

That wasn't 3-2, that was more like 5-2, terran needs to win a late game TvP 3 times. First - kill the deathball. Then - kill the air army. Then - kill the ground army again. That's beyond ridiculous what they've done to TvP.

[@bth4239]

When are Protoss going to stop embarassing themselves with this triple stargate carrier nonese? Stats, Classic, now Hero all lost because of it.

[@Pavel-q1r8s]

Rotti is speaking as if he's mouth is full of porridge, as usual.

[@theeraphatsunthornwit6266]

If these 2 are here, does this mean someone beat serral?😂 P.s. oh final is the name of the tournament?😂

[@GeordieHalma]

Bo5 finals...

[@real_MacrocosM]

Quarterfinals and semis yeah. But the actual Final is ofc a Bo7

[@abdulazizalawadhi6569]

if the game was more balanced then her0 would have won for sure, this is the state we are living in unfortunately.

[@Eatbutternow]

Dude balance has nothing to do with it when in game five herO keeps making carriers and motherships against 26+ Vikings that just keep one shoting them. It’s like the casters said, if he had transitioned to a ground army he would have went from having an army that is really weak to what Maru had to having an army that is really strong against Maru’s. But he stubbornly refused to transition and kept up the aggression. This is how herO always wins or loses his games.

[@victorlu2313]

Of course the game is not balanced when protoss loses. Getting really tired of this. Zerg has been nerfed significantly yet serral continues to dominate. And I'm a maru fan. Hero lost because his game is not polished. If maru loses to serral i don't cry that zerg is imba. Serral just happens to be better.

[@real_MacrocosM]

LLOOOLL😂😂😂😂😂😂 of course of course.. Terran has been nerfed INTO THE FUCKING GROUND PATCH AFTER PATCH.. but no.. he still lost bc 'balance' 🤡

[@lahancodon]

@@Eatbutternow You kinda prove his point. Toss often has to be diligent of what the opponent army is, whilst Terran doesn't have that kind of concern in their game plan.

[@jkkim6928]

The fact that the most expensive and slowest moving/building unit in the game gets deleted by tier 2 units like vikings or corruptors is yes a balance issue

[@grgapitici]

this very nice game has been ruined by the bias commentary.

[@Jrich21]

Terran is broken

[@real_MacrocosM]

Savage and incredible. 💙🤌🏽

[@PAL-101]

These Casts Voices are unfortunately very unpleasant to listen to. I know it’s not their fault but I’m so annoyed by it that I would give the Video a bad rating just because of the Casts :/
