The 30% of the time that someone beats him does that make them the best player ever? It's the law of averages my friend he's bound to lose at some point, it still doesn't change the fact that he's an absolutely incredible player and likely the best in the world at this time. Also I think Taeja had more wins in this tournament than some teams did all together, how would he not get the mvp award? If Taeja dominates longer than 1 month we can definitely call him the best player in the world. But for now lets just wait. He had an impressive ipl tac 3 run, won summer arena and asus. Let him get further than round of 8 in gsl(which he certainly will if he prepares) and you can call him the best | ||

Seed's isn't quite as impressive (yes he is really good but still look at what Taeja did today... went 7-1 against IM 2 of those wins being against gsl champs).. there have been people who won GSLs who aren't best in the world ... To be fair to Seed, he has played in less tournaments as well since Taeja goes to a lot more foreign events and also plays more matches in team leagues. Honestly, Seed beat Taeja and Hero. I think he would have likely AK Liquid if the player orders were different. Having said that, I still rank Taeja as #1 and Seed #2 right now. | ||

What is the BO that seed used in the last game? Because at 7 he had blink almost completed, and around 7 or 8 stalkers near HerO's base. I think he blinked forward at around 7:20 or so? Thanks. | ||

I really am getting frustrated with Nestea's constant teamleague failure, it's as reliable as Taeja's winningness | ||

So his next games in Korea will be WCG in group with Jjakji and MKP (has TSL as well). | ||

Shambolic production including awful sound, periodic blackouts, cheap set, far far too much downtime/ads and an awful award ceremony, it reminded me of a prize ceremony in a local hall after winning a chess match - very amateurish | ||
