Congratz to Liquid, but especially to TaeJa. So incredibly good!

I have to got to bed now, it's 04:39 AM here. You kept me awake, TaeJa! But I am glad that Liquid won. Liquid fighting!

They weren't IIRC. TaeJa killed Bomber's engi bay, while Bomber let TaeJa's sit long enough to complete the +3. Had Bomber been more proactive about destroying buildings, he could have kept the upgrades even. Instead, Bomber focused a lot of his attention on unit engagements and setting up his own infrastructure.

Dunno about it but TaeJa had +3 for his tanks while Bomber had +1.

Let's be honest. Taeja carries Liquid and if he wasn't there I don't think they'd have made it this far.

No offence to the other members of liquid's roster but Slayers breeds good Terrans.

What?

When a team picks up ANY player, it's called an investment. And every investment has "luck" factored in. When I say "luck", I don't mean that dices were rolled when Taeja signed up that determines his success in the coming year. Also, if it's not clear enough, "luck" is but one facet of a player's growth.

Look at Zenio, k?

Liquid gives him the opportunity to travel, gain experience and mature as a player. The guy has so much raw talent is insane, Liquid is doing what they can to polish the edges and bring him into the spotlight. For instance, on Slayers he never got a chance to really shine and always had MMA and whatnot over shadowing him. On Liquid, he's a superstar.

I think Taeja probably did most of his 'breeding' on his own actually. Sure a team can help guide a player, but I think a player makes or breaks based off of what he is willing to put into it. The support just provides more opportunities to demonstrate ones ability. In which case, Liquid has been fantastic for Taeja.

At the time Taeja was surrounded by very good terrans (MMA, Ganzi, Ryung) and pretty much had no hope of getting a chance to prove himself. Liquid gave him that chance.
