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. Agreed, I remember reading Alive's interview after and was surprised how much respect he had for First's play. He also mentioned he was very lucky to have won. So people shouldn't downplay this match because First will be up and coming Toss player in the near future. | ||

Agreed, top 5 toss easily right now, but with the rate of his improvement I could see him overtaking Squirtle and Creator to become top 3. | ||

I never said they didn't both play phenomenally, did I? It was a good series and I agree that it could have gone both ways. All I was saying was that in that final game, First saw what Taeja was going for and punished him for it. For the record, I still think Taeja is the superior player overall, but First is a pretty frightening up-and-comer, not too surprising to see that upset occur. | ||

That's like saying Warp Gate lost Protoss a game after he warps in a bunch of units away from his main right before it gets dropped. | ||

It was crazy timing by First but the bunkers would have helped for just long enough I think and he would have had his vikings for the collosus too. | ||

English comprehension fail... What a poor (tournament Taeja decided not to win). Not What a (poor tournament) Taeja decided not to win. Since Taeja been winning everything, and the one he doesn't win happens to be TSL, thus it's a poor choice on Taeja's part to lose in this particular tournament. | ||
