So to sum up

Taeja game 1: The protoss has an advantage, the streams dies, when it comes back Taeja won
Taeja game 2: The protoss attacks when maxed against 160 supplies, pokes at the nexus, then retreats, and loses 5 minutes later
Taeja game 3: Very favored Terran map past 15 minutes, both player go for super late game builds
Taeja game 4: The zerg gets an advantage, the game crashed. Remake, Taeja wins.

Maybe they are hiding the fact that it's staged by making it TOO obvious?

That was the greatest comeback in the history of SC2, holy shit.


See, it's the difference between casuals and experience players - the experienced players know that after the bust didn't end the game, Taeja was always ahead. Go ahead and kill 60 SCVs, who the fuck cares? With 4 orbitals established that early he has more income anyways.


Seriously.

But I cannot really blame the lower league players or spectator-only guys. Because honestly, it's part of a casters job to make clear what's going on. And Kevin and DoA just don't provide that inside at all it feels.


I agree with this, Kevin and Doa are definitely not the first (or tenth?) pair of casters I would choose. It LOOKS terrible when he busts into his base and kills all that stuff, but there is no answer for the double drop which just ravaged him. Basically handled a speedbane/ling bust of that size perfectly with that counter. Considering he went for an insanely greedy build, it just speaks to Taeja's ridiculousness..

Nestea sucks so hard these days lol

Taeja is such a boss


...Really? He had the first game won and the 2nd game was still pretty close until the hive snipe. And this is against Taeja, who just beats everyone (especially Zergs) with relative ease.

Not a fan of re-games or all-kill format. And IPL's production quality seems to have dropped off quite a bit in the last few events, pretty disappointing event overall.


He didn't have the first game won at all. His attack did less damage in game 1 than it did in game 2 AND he was more behind on upgrades than in game 2.

I'm actually kind of depress by the poor understanding of these games by the average poster here. Oo

TaeJa transition and gameplan is genius btw. I want the replay of that game so bad I'll give a leg for it.
The opening, the late tanks, the high midgame barracks count, the drop play, the sky terran transition.. everything was so smooth and perfect.

Ehm, you don't have to be a high level player to understand that, al right? -_-'

Screw TSL, I'm so watching all of this. No matter how many breaks, glitches, black screens and other fuckups, Taeja is just pure porn. No, he doesn't play perfectly, he's had a few shoddy games, but a careless supplyblocked Taeja is still better than any other terran out there right now.

While I hold to the opinion that byun is as good as taeja I must say taeja looks near invincible in TvZ these days.

Forgive me for asking a probably obvious question, but if it's best of nine, how come LG-IM only have seven players listed, and Liquid 8 (inc Nony). Is Nazgul going to have to step in at 4-4 in the second series?

5 players max needed from each team.

I'm no expert, but I think they can use the same players for the second series.

if Yoda does the reverse all-kill (4kill i guess) right now it's gonna be really funny, but also kinda sad.

sure nestea did a lot of damage
but on four command centers... taeja will rebuild 48 scvs in 3 minutes and 24 seconds.. plus with mules, he was aite

i understand why nestea wanted to end the game early, split map on that map vs terran is tough as it is, but as a player of taeja's caliber, not a favorable position :s
