Taeja is probably the best TvPer out there.

I don't think his TvP is weak but it's definitely his weakest matchup. I couldn't watch all his games but in many of them his opponent handed the game to him. Also, he seems to be lost in the TvP endgame (e.g. set2 against Puzzle).

In contrast, MMA has shown muscular and dominating TvT and TvZ performances.

Taeja's TvP is one of the better I've seen. In general the level of TvP is poor though which is probably just the result of terrans never having had the need to really focus on it. MMA has won several tournaments without meeting protoss for example.
Also it's a matchup where terran can always roll the dice by doing some weird 1 base all-in which have decent win odds all the time. Untill this GSL there simply hasn't been a need to be good in TvP at all..

Well, I think all the Ts are having a hard time with Ps late game... If your harass gets shutdown in mid game and you head to late game even, you need to get the perfect engagement to win. And with P having blink and force fields, it is easier for them to pull back if engage in a bad spot. Ts are pretty much hoping that Ps make a mistake to win...

And as for Taeja, he isn't doing well against the top Ps either...

There are no great TvPers. The match up is just bad for terran and rely on Protoss players making mistakes to win. When protoss get to use all their tech, they should win. The match up is just not balanced because of the terran's reliance on bio units. Hopefully it will change in hots with the viability of mech.

Add Jjakji to that list as well, and Taeja IS a beast in TvP

Don't forget he predicted MVP to advance for sure, then second place Curious. And just look at Clide...


That means MC and Jjakji are doomed tomorrow ...

You mean next week?

Well, the score was 2-1 for Polt. I think the important things is how he won. Care to recap the games? I don't think anyone is saying TvP is impossible to win. I think the thinking, even amongst Korean pros, is that if P doesn't make any big mistakes and get to late game, they are very tough to win against.

And there aren't really any timings early and mid game that they are very weak to and they have strong 2 base timing of their own as well

Taeja lost to Oz to drop to Code A and lost to Genius in the Up and Down... 2 games is a small sample size but we need to see how he does against the top Ps like MC, Puzzle, Oz, Parting, Genius.
