In seriousness though, those saying that TL are a bit Taeja-reliant. Why didn't Liquid pick up Supernova? At the very least I imagine they would have had discussions with the guy given he lives with Hero et al.

Genuinely curious, not critical of management or anything just seemed a good fit, gets on well with the existing players plus is a pretty solid GSL player.

This is ridonk. If Taeja singlehandedly wins a teamleague (coming out of losers bracket into double-elim finals, no less), I will shit myself. (Figuratively.)

Liquid is satisfied with three Korean players. They want to continue being a foreign with Korean players. Not a Korean team.

Looking like Taeja will tie up the series. He's fucking incredible really, it's really painful to watch as someone cheering for IM. Really hating this format more and more.

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.


Say, you're following football. You're annoyed with barcelona winning so much.
You claim their success is attributed to them being "lucky" to have picked up messi before anyone else.

What actually would happen in this scenario, is that people would laugh at you. If TL is "lucky" to have signed taeja during his up-tick, then you're reducing everything to a question of "luck". (Following, and while I don't agree with this myself,I guess TL is "unlucky" to have signed a zenio who hasn't really peaked since?

Give credit where credit is due.

I'm praying some team like Eclypsia reads this and takes it seriously, and make a huge announcement that they've bought Inca. That would be amazing.

They are looking for upcoming talent.
Supernova been around for a while and chances are he will not get much better anymore.

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

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.

Ret?

Ret is not in Korea. And I think he has no inclination to go there for an entire season of GSTL.

We should totally go around constantly dropping hints that people should pick up inca and jookto to see if we can dupe a team into buying them.
