What sexy new recruits. I can't wait to see what this new and improved Team Liquid will do.


...does this mean we can start making Hwaseung House comics with Taeja and Friends?

They have a house in Korea, I think it's the house of awesome so go for that.

As things stand at the moment, don't count on it. Jinro retired, HayprO is not in Korea anymore. So they are down to only 4 players in Korea: TaeJa, HerO, Zenio, TLO.

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.

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.

Yeah I guess so, just seems a bit short sighted on their part to not see that Taeja was a big talent, the Korean online scene is something ALL talent scouts should be looking at.
Fuckit, you could ask any regular LR person at that time who was a good pickup, and every single person would have said Taeja.


^^ Ooops, sorry wax, hipsters to the end then.

Time for Nazgul to go into the GSTL booth and show everyone why he's the boss

Taeja really just hates observers.
Even during difficult times, when I sat down to play the game, there were times where it felt like god has descended down and played [for me].

Teams should just hire hipsters like us to scout talent from them. Not like anyone else will do it.

^^ Ooops, sorry wax.

Well ganzi wasn't very popular because he was like alive, an incredibly typical terran 25% cheese, 75% standard fantastic TvT, strong TvZ, cared little for his TvP because there weren't many protosses when he was most successful but looking strictly at results for the teams they probably saw 4th MLG, code A winner and Code S RO4 as more appealing than the ESV weeklies.
