This may be just me, but where was Ryung, who I understand is a TvT specialist? He's a quality GSL Terran who usually is in the SlayerS GSTL lineup.
Who's the bigger scrub, the scrub, or the scrub who loses to him?

Nazgul, just wanted to say you are the man for answering all the questions! Props to you!

Can't wait until the finals, especially for HerO! I can't wait to see him play his style against the IM zergs!

Liquid fighting!!!

@Nazgul
There's been a lot of speculation which team developed Taeja by how much - NEX, ZeNEX, SlayerS, Team Liquid... what's your opinion on that and can we get at some point Taeja's own opinion published too?

I feel like - as usual - Liquid did help Taeja a lot with his growth, he had issues with offline events, which he seems to be overcoming. But many viewers do not appreciate that, so I'd love the hear Taeja clarify this topic and end the speculation.

Congrats to Liquid on advancing to the finals. Was hoping to see HerO play tdoay, though TaeJa has been an absolute beast as of late and took care of business. Should make quite an interesting finals vs IM. Will be quite exciting to see the whole Liquid team together out in SF.

People like to draw conclusions so easily, but how can you truly know and attribute all of this so specifically? I'm not going to sit here and pretend I know exactly how much Liquid does for a player and how much the player would have gotten on their own or on another team. It's fair to say that nearly all of our players peak after they join Liquid. You can call that good management, good scouting, or neither/luck either way I'll keep doing what I'm doing.

I know that TaeJa has gotten a lot better on Liquid and has had many opportunities to show this improvement to you. He didn't get many chances on SlayerS, where other skilled players got sent to tournaments before him. Interesting note is that no other team really cared about picking TaeJa up, so apparently it wasn't all that obvious.

Much love to Nazgul for answering questions. Big congratulations to Liquid for making it to the finals. And a pure wtf to Taeja for looking so good. I had my doubts, I was wrong.

Nazgul, what do you think about Taeja carrying the team?

I mean, if it weren't for him, I really don't think TL would go to the finals.

Do you want more good players or are you happy with Taeja winning for everyone?

taeja is the hero terrans need, but not the one they want right now...

(especially if they're hoping for a buff...)

just thought that sounded clever!

We don't doubt at all that he is the main reason we are in the finals. Of course the other players would have liked to contribute more as well, but honestly when it comes to the level we're facing here we need our champion level players to step up to make it through.

It's a little annoying to read opinions about the rest of the team, when it is those players who won NASTL and finished really high in the previous IPLTAC (5-3 TSL, 4-5 Prime, 4-5 FXO). They deserve a little more love than that.
