One thing I love is Naniwa mandhandling Genius again. Genius was so cocky in GSL picking Naniwa first and then getting raped. It's just like a movie drama getting better and better.

Nah its still really good. No one micros TvP battles like him. He actually stutters back fighting zealots while vikings kill colossus, and he has very good EMP aim. Most people stim and split, lose vikings or miss with EMPs, or any combination of them.

mkp called, he wants to talk with you about this statement.


You could say he's one of the best foreigner at TvP.. but really, there isn't much competition.

He said he didn't plan to pick Naniwa but MC and Parting convinced him to leave his choice to one of them lol?

Taeja is good, but i feel he is overhyped now, because he joined Liquid. He need some result in big tournaments.

Yeah, who's would be better? DeMuslim? Not at all, no body is comparable at TvP outside of Korea, or in general TvX to Thorzain.

Is eliminating two GSL champions in a row in Code S not big tournament results?

ok I'm sure I follow SC2 well enough to know that this is not true unless I missed something huge(and no TL signing teaja does not give him such a rank).

sadly thats how it goes on TL

btw anyone watching World Snooker Championship right now :p


... You're on TL, why aren't you hyping him?

Taeja being on TL in no way affects my opinion of him - he's there because every other top Terran minus MKP has a weakness, but he doesn't.

being on TL doesnt make me a fan of the TL sc2 squad. And your argument about "weakness" sounds too general. Let achievement talks. One time Code S ro16 doesnt make him better than proven terran champions (I count five), not even close

Hmmm... I guess GhostKing and Bomber's spot would be a wildcard. But I feel strongly for Ganzi's spot and remain there.

Yeah, I think he meant "for a foreigner", because he was describing some basic micro while MKP regularly accomplishes freaking miracles before our eyes :D

Getting picked by TL doesn't bring you to this kind of status, even when you want to believe that. :<


Nothing to do with being picked up by TL. Taeja is there because he's very solid in all three match-ups, which is the same for MKP. He's Rank 1 in ELO because he's beaten a shit load of top players.


TaeJa is rank1 ELO because he stomped Korean Weekly, which are played by mostly Code B players. ( which are good, but code B for a reason )


Uh, no. His recent matches in the GSL:

3-2 Jjakji
2-0 DRG
2-0 Squirtle
2-0 Lucky

He's never shown the match up weakness that MMA vs. Protoss and MVP vs. Protoss are, and IIRC people in Korea are saying that his TvZ is unbeatable at the moment. That leaves TvT, and he stomped Jjakji in TvT in two separate tournaments, so where does that leave him?


So a few wins makes him the top Terran player in the world? People think MarineKing still has a lot to prove to get that status lol, TaeJa has everest to climb in comparison.

If you're going to call Mvp's TvP bad (it's not), I'd say TaeJa's tvt was never TOP TOP TOP notch either (neither is Jjakji's, by the way).



We're talking about right now, aren't we?

MVP is the best Terran player in SC 2 of all time, but right now he's not Top 3. Same for MMA - until he is able to TvP his way out of a paper bag, he's not at the very top.

Taeja creamed Squirtle, whose PvT creamed both MKP and MMA in MLG. He TvTs better than Jjakji. His TvZ is top tier. He's my vote for Top 2 Terran until other Terrans step it up.
