I would like to graciously accept the noob of the year award. Thanks everyone!


For real though, these are the kind of articles I love about teamliquid. Thanks for the writeup.

It may be that the majority of what we hear from TeamLiquid are the successes of their Korean players, but pretty much every team now has that.

About 81% of TL's winnings this year came from Taeja and Hero. While only 27% of EG's winnings came from Puma/JYP this year. Do note I crunched these numbers with their winnings only while the players were on the team. JD and Revival have not won/placed to earn any prize winnings while on EG. So it seems the Koreans didn't really play too large of a role for EG in 2012.

Startallllllllllllles :D, my favorite team, my favorite year. I'm so happy to see the team that I've liked for a long time come of age, when before they seemed like they were going no where fast. I wonder though, why wasn't EG considered for the international team of the year?

Despite being a big TL fan, I don't like their (self) acceptance of best foreigner team. DIdn't they just have three players (Jinro, Haypro, Sea) retire after seeing that their careers weren't going anywhere? I know it comes off as harsh, but where are the W's and big name additions to back up their claim of best foreigner/international team?

Always love these! Polt should have been nominated for T of the year, and I'm not sure about Life's being the player of the year. Other than that though, I totally agree!

TaeJa wins ASUS ROG and MLG Summer Arena, HerO wins DH Winter and NASL Season 4. Both have had several great GSL runs. It's a close contest with EG but arguments can certainly be made for either. TL certainly has a legitimate argument for best foreigner team of the year.

Thank you for that game of the year pick. I think it gets forgotten because of how much Gumiho destroyed the rest of Slayers, but my god that game was pure gold. By far one of the best TvTs of all time.

Is it fair to say that Stephano's near all kill against Life, MC, Seed, DRG at GSL world Championship as the winner in the most epic near comeback of the year?

I like this! So nice that Startale and NaNiwa got some rewards.

And IPL5 and WCS Europe was indeed the best tournaments of the year

Now, let's hope that 2013 brings us less drama and balance whine

Plus, TaeJa went 23-3 in IPL TAC3 versus lots of good players

Re: players to watch for in 2013,

Last year, I wrote that article completely unprompted to hype few players I thought deserved some attention, and Wax (maybe reluctantly) allowed it in. This year, I simply haven't followed the scene as closely as I did in late 2011, and I frankly just don't know. So I'm sorry if you're missing your hipster picks for 2013.

It's going to be an unpredictable year with HotS anyway. When in doubt bet on foreign zergs, korean terrans and protoss of all nationalities.

Once HotS creates a level playing field for two-year and two-month pro alike, the elephant will, at long last, become impossible to ignore.

still sticking to the failed elephant theory i see
