No guys, T was never really underpowered for the koreans. However at a lower skill terran seems weak, which is why people cry. That's also why Z (and less so P) is doing so well in EU and US.

A tournament without a stage is a bit sad. Hopefully the rest was great.

MC played like a mid - master Protoss strategy wise in the whole bo7. I really don't understand the decisions he made there. Ofcourse he's not a bad player and his mechanics still were very good, but from his builds and strategy he didn't look like a champion at all.


Mid-master? That's laughable, but can't say I'm surprised as that is pretty expected from you


Ofcourse, could you please take a look into his decisions regarding strategy? Last game he scouts a very early starport and he can assume its a stim-timing after a gas-fe and also scouts double-reactors. He then decides to go very greedy for double forge which means he'll have no DPS at all against the bio force. Taeja could have won the match right when TLO called out that heromarine scouting everything. No way he would have defended the bio force.

As I said MC's mechanics were good as always even though on Metropolis he was playing kind of sloppy, yet the decisions through the series wasn't better than from a masters player. If you hate on me for pointing that out, I will just leave you as a MC fanboy. I like that boss as well, but this certainly was very argueable.

If you think that was "mid-masters" strategy wise, I don't know what to tell you. He certainly made a lot of strategic mistakes, but that laughable exaggeration just discredits any point you may actually have. I'm not a MC "fanboy" at all by the way and you will find it difficult to find anything supporting that assertion.

Both players had an incredibly good tournament, kinda feel like MC was lacking something he had through the whole tournament during the final series

But in the end, taeja realised he played terran and it was only gonna end one way from there

Yeah, I guess they should gamble and try to blind counter even if they have no info on what tech path the Protoss player is choosing, right?

Best player in the world at the moment?

Shut up.

taeja is overhyped


You were saying?


It's actually true.


Well, we'll see how hyped you will be once you've all killed (or almost all killed) Prime, Startale and Slayers. And won MLG Arena and Assembly + made GSL Ro8 back to back. Then 4-0 Squirtle, 4-1 MC, 3-0 Genius. And all these other overhyped players.


Did you just call MC overhyped? He already proved his worth.

I don't think anyone actually believed terran was OP, it's just that other races were balanced out more and terrans stopped getting easy wins?


Shut up and go away. Terrans never got easy wins except with 111s.

And Taeja alone winning 2 not that major events doesn't prove squat shit, we have pretty much 1 tera of data relatively to this saying otherwise about terran's current situation.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

Give that sound guy a raise, I can't remember the last time I watched a major foreign tournament that did not have major sound issues at some point. (at least there wasn't any when I watched ^^)
