Nope. Ridiculously bad micro by MC lost him this game.


Taeja continually threw away ghosts and vikings, I don't see why thats good micro.


Maybe that is why you are not in gsl round 8 and taeja is?


Leave the ignorant in their nirvana!
Vikings are meant to be thrown away in the effort to snipe the colossi and protect your army.


He threw them away by landing them, they then died to zealots because he was too careless to lift them.

Don't call me ignorant when you can't even be bothered paying attention to what happened in the game.

Well, fighting colossi army and winning without vikings can be seen as some pretty damn good micro imo.
It's true that mc did not always micro well, but I'm still quite impressed with how Taeja played.
I have no quote!

Meanwhile he was microing against possible storms, spreading to make sure the colossi didn't deal too much AOE damage and sniped or EMP'd all or nearly all of the templar before they stormed. Oh and macroing, then attacking the 4th with his cloaked ghosts. Try engaging 4 colossi with 1 viking and see how it goes champ, you have no clue what happened.


There were no Colossi, thats why the vikings were landed, also the gohsts were with his army, the vikings were attacking the fourth. He lost them all to MCs army AFTER the battle.

Were you even watching this game? Jesus christ.

How many fights does Terran have to win to beat protoss late game?


All fights!
If you loose one, he is at your door and you dont have instant warp in to defend.


Every time you type loose instead of lose HaXXspetten dies inside

He should loosen up a bit then...

I'm gonna loose it soon.


Loose what? A volley of arrows?

My sanity.


He was subtly suggesting that it's actually spelled 'lose'.

Very well played by Teaja. So Terran lategame not that bad after all?


can you play like taeja? and do you expect the average player to?


I thought the majority of the community agreed upon SC2 getting balanced around top level play and not the average player.
As a side note: I wrote a bit earlier that Terrans should all-in and cheese vs Toss, since it seems to be more succesful.
No doubt, lategame Terran vs Toss is pretty hard.

Never seen anyone walk through storms as much as teaja did, yeah his control was good apart from that, but not as good as people are making out.

That game was terrible. MC threw it away.



Its become clear that in this matchup you MUST keep the Medivac count low. If you don't do that, you're fucked, Storm and Colossi don't overpower the medivac healing and the MM DPS is insane.


MM DPS is nothing compared to collosi/archon/storm splash damage


You can't split vs bio damage. Also, protoss doesn't have constant healing on their units that negate high dps damage. Which is why he said high number of medivacs late game gets very dangerous.

He also killed like 15 probes with them when there were no collosi out on the field at all. That's about as good a trade as you would ever get from those vikings that are absolutely useless as part of the ground army. You're ignorant for not understanding the matchup

Indeed. Throwing away units sometimes is intended and needed.

MC did blunder up quite a bit but he backed it up with sick macro and timings.

TaeJa won because he did not lose his entire army in 1 single engagment like most TvPs

Now can we stop the whining and hating?

Both players did great. One did better. Period

EDIT: My bad. Should've said "loose his entire army"



taeja lost his entire army twice...just traded equally supply wise

Yes he is clueless and preposterous, lets all stop feeding him (cause hes trolling most probably) and hope for another great game

Meh. If you watch the first 4 matches for Code A when they start at 13:10 KST, it's hilarious how short the breaks are.

So to me, these long breaks are actually a nice change of pace

Yup, so the re-macro was even and thus no one could outright push to win.
