Taeja shouldn't have gone for the 1-1-1 on Ohana imo, if he really thinks he's that much better than First he should be confident to win games straight up.

First would have been in the Up/Downs and maybe in even Code S, but he got aLive in the first round of Code A and narrowly lost 1-2 in his first time in the Mokdong Studios.

He is going to become a beast. Him and Seed seem close, so I wouldn't be surprised to see First in Code S by Season 5.

This is why people are scurred of making Ravens. If they work they are useful but when they don't they do nothing. An infestor always gives you 1 fungal, Raven gives a auto turret which did like 10 damage, big whoop.

Taeja should have Sky Terran and made lots of Vikings.

Double eng bay before extra rax, delayed medivacs/vikings to get a raven, no scouting of the quick colossus, this is the kind of play a 2 base all in SHOULD punish.

He even salvaged his fucking bunkers, if first didn't kill him then and there the game would be 100% over


I wish you couldn't salvage bunkers. I've lost games too where I've salvaged my bunkers then noticed an army coming at me. Really sucks. :/


Same. Pressing salvage, attack arrives. FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU :D


The worst thing is you can't even cancel it. You salvage, see an army, go to cancel and the games like. Nope! T_T

What a poor tournament Taeja decided to not win. Well atleast the biggest threat to Squirtle is gone now.



how is it a poor tournament because Taeja did 2 ForGG builds and lost the series?

the tourney is awesome so far

First getting an upset. Recco getting an upset. Major getting an upset (to some)


You obviously did not understand my post in the slightest.

In a Bo5, the more skilled player always advances.

Yonghwa, very diff playstyle compared to Seed. However First's playstyle similar to Seed's but Seed is more refined and has more patience in his play.

And yet First won fair and square, so you can only blame Taeja.


Yep, that argument is even harder to make since it's a Bo5. More games = increasingly accurate indication of who was more skilled, at least on that day. Maybe Taeja was having an off-day, but First was the better player in that series. Identified holes in Taeja's play and exploited them in that last game.

That quite clearly an exaggeration... I've seen superior players lose Bo5 many times.

Yeah it´s a pitty you cannot even reverse the refunding from your static defense, where the other 2 races can´t even refund them. Horrible.
