This just proves that Liquid will be a serious contender in GSTL. I think they will win the next season of GSTL.

I still don't think anything beats going undefeated in an entire gsl AND winning back-to-back 4-0 finals...

Nestea's route during that undefeated season was pretty meh though, compared to some of Mvp's and even Seed's route.

Back to back 4-0 finals!

Against a Zerg which back then he had 100% win rate and ugh.... InCa

Gotta be MVP. Please cast your eyes towards August 2011 to December 2011: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Mvp_(player)/Results

Basically at this time MVP either won or it was an upset. MMA and Leenock were really the only people that were able to beat him in this period twice.
Mvp - Leenock - Dongraegu - MC - Gumiho - Keen - Polt - Squirtle - Jjakji - Genius - Seed - Life - sC - Dream || LG-IM - MVP - FXO

5-3... TL too good of a team for LG-IM to handle, especially without Mvp.


TL too good of a team? Taeja is the only won who does anything for them.


And what has IM done? According to you, they just have to get their 10 players to just snipe 1 person - And they have 4 weeks to prepare for it and fails to do it.


IDK how this disproves what I said. This proves exactly what I said. Which is that the entire tourney is Taeja vs IM. I never said IM is doing better. All i said is how can you call the entire TL team is better than team IM when it is just Taeja vs IM. All you did was repeat what i said.


Because Taeja has the best mechanics out of anyone in SC2 and TL is the best team because they helped Taeja prepare to snipe each LG-IM player. Taeja would still be a typical Terran if he was still in SlayerS because SlayerS Terrans are notoriously bad at TvP. Here in TL, he had LiquidHero to practice against. In SlayerS, Puzzle and Alicia aren't that good versus Terran so he didn't realize his potential yet.


You are so wrong, Liquid just got lucky by picking Taeja up during his up-tick, before foreigners had noticed him.


Nazgul's comment that no one else was in the market for him was very surprising. Especially after his domination of the ESV cups and general positive trend.

Yup. Everyone was idiotic to not at least compete at all for Taeja imo, but I guess hindsight is 20/20.

Well to be fair Taeja's opponents dont even really know when its safe to move out. Cause if you do Taeja will have like 3 drops to harass 3 bases while being able to win a straight up fight when they engage.

It's honestly really scary how good Taeja's play is. Especially when your able to have your opponents hesitate and never know when its safe to move out and not get dropped or harassed.

My only guess was that ganzi had much better GSL results and foreign results and since he left at the same time the teams jumped onto ganzi instead of taeja.

We realize they make them because they throw away advantages of 40 supply and tech.
Seriously Taeja forces mistakes but good bit of them today are just made of IM initiative.

And it seems Yonghwa was supposed to be the sniper.
I don't get why would you want to use protoss tho.

I would pay so much for a DongRaegu Taeja bo7.

I feel like if Taeja could beat DRG in a bo7, then he could "secure" a claim to best player in the world.

Keep in mind I'm a DRG fanboy and will still probably believe he's the best player in the world.
