[@jacobunderwood4957]

It just keeps getting better, man! I miss Geoff. t.t

[@PaintDotSquare]

After watching wayyyyy too much SC2 games in the last two years I have finally found the ultimate match. This is better than every action movie ever made, this is just absolutly insane. Every match in this series is brilliant and the last one is absolutly bonkers. This is not just metal this is heavy doomsday metal. I'm mindblown by what Reynor delievered here. And maru was obviously as good as it gets, but I think Reynor just broke the game somehow. This is unreal!

[@JacKThEREapER0]

Been watching since 2012. Yeah, it's been pretty good

[@AskZch]

Epic game! Did you watch [2020 GSL S3] Ro.16 Group C Match2 PartinG vs Maru really great game. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mouwdnWgha6Dbck great game too (search for title if you want whole match, this is just match 2)

After watching so much SC2, it's this series that takes the crown. Hands down best series I've watched in ages. How am I even going to fall asleep now.

[@FullTimeRandom]

I never knew SC2 can give you goosebumps and this comeback is just amazing.. the fighting spirit of italian zerg, last game and never say die attitude... I'm just out of words...

[@ThomasH__]

That last game was SO close, was literally on the edge of my seat the whole time! Reynor is scary good and I think he’s only going to get better

[@KyleBourret]

We just need a Terran win though. Terran is OP but Serral and Reynor are just scary. Is Zerg most dominant race?

[@e7venjedi]

20:45 The upgrades really told a story that game too. For a long time Reynor had crap upgrades on the ground while Maru was chilling with 3/3. Even here you can see Maru is investing for the future, but Reynor isn't bothering to even finish his ground upgrades. Masterclass in strategic play from Marue, I love it!

This was an unreal series. I didn't even know who to root for. Maru is my favorite Terran player, but it is very hard not to root for Reynor who just always seems to find a way to reset his focus despite things not always going his way. It went right down to the wire with back-and-forth, nail-biting drama.

[@essencessentials]

Great game... Reynors excitement at the end is what its about!

[@666pitmaster]

I love how people in the live chat were talking about how "if reynor isnt rapping then he must be mentally broken and its over". These are, often times, just children. I think expecting people this young to already have an an iron constitution and be mentally unflappable is not realistic. It adds to the realism, but these kids are obviously resilient and I would never count Reynor out.

[@JosepPi]

just the fact that he has been able to reach such high levels of skills is a statement to how tolerant to failure he is and how much he wants to get better and discipline he has. I guess you can really understand the meaning of these words if you have tried it yourself and realize how hard it can be. I feel nothing but respect to people who is able to achieve this level of proficiency on a craft since I have tried many times myself and never came close to it.

[@mattagon6407]

I went all in on my channel points to Reynor, I over doubled my earnings the chat was so hyped behind it.

[@just-some-menace6138]

While he isn't always bad, I personally find it really annoying and poor sportsmanship. There is a point where celebrating turns into rubbing your victory in and Reynor has absolutely crossed that line a few times.

@@just-some-menace6138 While everyone is entitled to his own opinions I struggle to understand your reasoning. Reynor celebrates by showing his happiness, but he never did it in the opponent's face offline, and certainly he didn't do that online, where they can't even see each other.

Since the Zerg units that can quickly take out a sieging tank can only be built later, tanks are effective defense against Zerg's push during mid-game. However. the placing of the tanks have to be strategic.
