Repeatedly stims when they aren't actually engaging and when he doesn't have enough medivacs to recover the health. Sits army behind his third base. None of those things are "perfect" micro. The only impressive micro he did all game was the marauder lift at the end and that was pretty much just showboating. The game was massively disappointing because the player who was ahead all game suddenly ended up not ahead because the other guy attacked in to him and there was nothing he could do about it. | ||

He lost because he didn't get Storm until way too late and didn't press his advantage when he had it. Then he lost one engagement because he didn't transition and wasted his bank on cannons. It was entirely Yonghwa's loss. Taeja has by far the best TvP in the world, but pretty much any Terran could win with mass Viking against no Templar. Yeah I know he was missing out on storm a bit, but he had it in the last engagement, just templar weren't in position. And he was missing a colossi or two in the fight. After seeing comments pointing out that, Yonghwa did screw up pretty badly  | ||

I just see the lack of storm at the end, and eventually an insane micro, but still.... Congratz ! ^_^ People like to bash on casters a lot but one thing they did say that was completely true was about positioning. YongHwa lost 2 colossi for free before actually engaging in the deciding battle. | ||

Taeja just has incredible late game engagements and positioning. | ||

Whenever a player has a winning position against him, they inexplicably drop the ball. | ||

I love TaeJa too but that wasn't his victory This is unfair to say. Yes YongHwa choked, but he didn't choke through his own will. He choked because Taeja MADE him choke. When Taeja was about to lose his third, he managed to delay like a god. Like, positioning vikings so Young would have to move back for a couple seconds, than moving marines/maruders forward, lifting his cc to threaten a huge push, like Taeja managed to force so many moments where his opponets can make mistakes. Yes Youngwha choked, but don't take credit away from Taeja. Taeja did exactly everything he needed to to win that game. | ||
