Hey guys I just tuned in for the last few games and sorry if this is a dumb question..

Are MC & MVP not in San Francisco with IM for this tournament?


It's not a dumb question, no they could not attend this tourney, MVP having surgery and idk where MC is.


And they're both in WCS which they probably want to do really well in so they probably wanted to stay to rest up and prepare for the tournament.

I think DongRaeGu can challenge him.

Has the best macro on the planet with the play of a champion. I think DRG is the only one who could challenge Taeja.

Edit: Note I'm not sure who would win

Isn't DRG slumping atm?

If i was Boxer, jessica and Cella i would be so pissed. They CREATED him brought him up from nothing now he kills them and single handedly wins the finals for another team.

I still strongly believe if byun had the same opportunities as taeja he could do as well as taeja has I guess I'll wait until IPL5 to see how the two stack up against each other.

YongHwa needs to be on suicide watch after those games. Two games where he had a decisive army lead knocking on Taeja's door and he let it slip away.

At the moment however, DRG has been performing awful. I think he's lost his last 5 important matches in a row?

Taeja sooo good. Team Liquid will win this... I think TL is the best foreign team at the moment, perhaps even the best team as they took down SO many teams.

Team Liquid is so good. I use to brush them off as another foreign team with a few good players but they have gotten so far as a team. IPL TAC finals...wow. Hopefully they will play in GSTL as I want to see what Team Liquid can dish out against more teams.

Never would I thought I'd say that Team Liquid is the best team in the world. So many great players. They really do deserve to win IPL TAC as they are the best team at the moment. I think they stole MVP's crown as best team.

1st bold.Taeja is basically carrying the team.

2nd bold. This makes me think you are trolling since without taeja I highly doubt liquid would be here. I mean you said that TL is a great TEAM, but there is maybe 2 players winning most of the games for them.

3rd bold. Again Taeja is carrying the team, and so many great players? There is hero, taeja, and ret always seems to throw games/is in a slump while rest of TL hasn't really helped.

It would be like saying IM was the best team, but they have only nestea/mvp win games.

People have been saying this for a while, and a lot of haters were of the opinion that he hadn't earned that yet.

I think they've all been silenced now.

Let's be honest here, Taeja had the game in the bag after he sniped the third (while running a drop in the main). If he had retreated into a proper position (or gotten his emps off when he had to fight) he could have won it there.

So yes Yonghwa was in a better position for a short period, but Taeja had played a pretty good game before that as well.

Imho Yonghwas main fault was not rebuilding his robo after he lost it. If he had built a few more Colossi (as in one more or two more) Taeja could not have microed his way out of the hole he was in. Storms simply don't seem to hit him

DRG has gotten his ass kicked by Polt, Leenock, MC and Creator recently. In current shapes, Taeja would eat DRG alive.

wait what I leave for ten minutes when the game was over and I come back and somehow Taeja won?

the crazy part is when I left I thought to myself "I bet Taeja is going to win this game anyway"

someone test that kid for starcraft steroids or something

Maybe before DRG started to play like shit, sure.
