In these circumstances I wished they'd actually interview the losing side. Or get a statement from the teams. The nagging question: What is wrong with Liquid's ace players of late?

I realize you can't win everything, but if you look at both HerO's and TaeJa's recent tournament results versus less-favored opponents, be it in indivual or team leagues, you have to wonder what's going on.

A big chance to go all the way was squandered today. And look in what fashion as well.

Taeja not injured, just overrated . People talk about MVP worship but I see more Taeja worship then anything else on TL.

The conclusion

Rain 3 - 1 Mvp


I'm just poking fun .

Rain isn't an elephant though. 50% record in standard leagues is pretty impressive, especially for a fairly new player, but it isn't elephant material.

To be fair the first piece was by Porcelina and this article is written by Waxangel.
I think that all starcraft writers should adhere to the maxim I would like to dub Waxangel's wager "Live your prediction life under the assumption that MVP will always win, even if rational thought dismisses it as a possibility."
“Life is a gamble, at terrible odds. If it were a bet you wouldn’t take it.”

How can you call TaeJa overrated, especially vs zerg, after this summer? He's shown some of the best TvZ in troublesome times for terrans. He's just not playing his toplevel (=insta vulnerable vs good zergs) the last couple of weeks, losing to Stephano, Vortix, Dark and Byul. Hopefully just a small dip.

I know Life is good, and usually Mvp is the underdog, but for once it feels like Mvp is the HEAVY favourite in this finals just due to Life's style of play, it's incredibly aggressive, and unless he switches it up significantly, I think Mvp will just know how to take him down.

Then again what I saw from Life against TaeJa was very convincing, but TaeJa played the same style and composition in each game, and seemed almost phased with each attack, he looked like a mess to be frank.

I'm just saying guys, last time MVP went confidently into an October finals he lost. I want him to win his 5th, but I think he needs to take Life a little more seriously.
A man does what he must — in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers, and pressures — and that is the basis of all human morality.

I'm sure he will take him seriously, there's no way he's going to not take him seriously after seeing Life destroy Marineking and Taeja.

GSL October was different because they flew overseas to play the finals and Mvp was also playing in the blizzcon tournament at the same time.
