Stats vs Hero


gosh you are so right :D


Yea, but Flash, Action, Crazy-hydra, Hoejja and Stats aren't as good as any Liquid players so I don't know why you would compare those two teams. If they were to play right now, even with Pro League format, KT would lose to TL.


What are you talking about?
I'm drawing comparison to the team composition.
And you're completely igorant if you think KT, especially Flash, Hoejja and Stats aren't as good as the Liquid players.

Flash has always been known to be the Ace and the clean up person to w/e the other team has to offer, which is similar to what Taeja brings to Liquid.

Stats has always been teh reliable Chintoss, who's a solid teammate, 2nd in command in the team who's well-rounded and reliable for a win, comparable to Hero.

KT Zergs are unpredictable, some days they are completely fail, but in the clutch somehow they always come through, similar to the Liquid Zergs.

And if you want to draw further comparison:
Flash never had a elite terran practice partner (Barracks, MinD), comparable to Liquid lacking top tier terran practice partners (Jinro)
Their coach is quite well known, and vocal, similar to Liquid Nazgul.

KT Liquid >_>

Honestly, this is already esports history. Can you think of a singular more dominating performance in a team league?

can someone who works at an event, for any of the big producers, please explain why computers seem to shit out every event, at least one. these hardware sponsored events that cant even run sc2 without blue screening is so weird? my pc has never been crashed by sc2 and its hardly a top of the line machine, you would think it wouldnt be difficult to put something together?

im just so curious about this kind of thing


Is there additional stream-related software running on the game PCs?

You can't compare Taeja's success to that of iloveoov. Not even close.

Im really glad IPL recognized that the people watching streams want nothing more than having as much down time as possible. At this rate it should be the best tournament in the world.

DRG early GSTL's

1st GSTL - got beaten by MMA

2nd GSTL - team won final without him.

And there were moments for violet, keen, genius etc. It was simply not as single-handedly done by as TaeJa.

Now, I absolutely love TaeJa, but no. He needs to dominate over a much longer period of time and advance the professional realm of SC2 before he can be seriously compared to Oov.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.

Taeja best player in the world? lol ... and more lol ... hardly close MKP, DRG and others.
He is using a mix of MKP(greed) and MMA(drops) style/builds ...

In his current form I'd say he most certainly is either the best or one of the top 2-3 players in the world.


People mix up "best player in the moment" with "most accomprished player". And we can do nothing to change that.


When you gain access to every game of every top player and we can then compare all those games to determine who is truly the "best" then I'll change my own definition of who I feel is the strongest player in the world. I take accomplishments into acount because that is the only thing to reliably go on. Taeja doesn't have the consistency offline to yet be called the best player in the world, though he is quickly closely the distance between himself and a few others.

he has a problem on the wrists for a long time now


How is your health lately?

I thought the reason I couldn’t exert any force on my wrist was because of the wrists themselves. However, I recently got in touch with GGPlay (T/N: the name MVP mentions has two results in TLPD, the other, Jjando, just looks very unlikely to be whom he is talking about). He told me that he had the exact same symptoms that I have. At the time, GGPlay retired and I continued. After GGPlay got out of the army, he had an examination which revealed that the problem wasn’t in the wrist but in the cervical disc. So, I am planning to get my cervical disks examined shortly.

man. GGPLAY and iris had probably the top 3 favourite and most intense SC:BW finals ever.
if you guys have time and have never seen it (or were just reminded of it after a long time) definately spend the time to watch it.
GGplay's (zerg) style and play was mind-bogglingly good and dare i say, perfect.
sadly, he retired shortly after that tournament. his play was incredibly impressive for that time
