We can now stop the Taeja's stupid hype...The guy's good, but i don't think he'll win this GSL.

That's what people said about Polt. And Jjakji. And Seed.

Winning a GSL depends almost as much on luck as it does on skill. Luck in getting the right MUs, luck in your opponent maybe not sleeping well the night before, luck in a lot of things. You don't actually have to be the best in the world to win a GSL.

Damn, Rain is already one of the best Toss players on the planet. Code S and A will look very different in a year from now, probably will be predominately Kespa.

I thought the matches in this group consolidated the hype of Taeja. He is indeed very good. And also, these results says that Sun is very good also, maybe even better than Taeja. And that's the most meaningful findings for this group. I think people can still say Taeja is the best terran right now.

"maybe" better? Taeja just said in an interview that Rain would beat him if they played again.

Rofl, Sun smashing Taeja (!) and Polt? :D

Can anyone read my mind right now; I'm thinking about a very big, grey animal that begins with an ''E'' and ends with an ''ant''.


But a bigger one called JD got slained yesterday...


On sc2 ? Nope.


Lol, if you are referring to elephants, you have to base it on their BW acheivements. And JD is definitely a bigger elephant. You don't refer to their sc2 play.

'Achievements' mean fuck all, what matters is how well they're actually playing. JD hasn't been playing great in awhile.

Clearly TaeJa lost the match against Rain on purpose to force more games for himself?

Yeah. I'm ashamed to say this but I hope HerO will get 2nd. If he meets Taeja again in the RO8 I might break a wall

The way he is playing right now - I think HerO will take first. But it's so hard to say.

And would rather have a guaranteed Liquid member in the top four, or the possibility of half of the top four being Liquid?

By.Sun's playstyle looks like a much more refined version of San's early templar play. Interesting that he never watched San play but derived it from an entirely different train of thought.

I think it is just the love and habit of high templars inherited from BW playstyle. Every base with 2 high templars and couple canon to defend, it is exactly the same as in BW PvZ pro level. Of course, Bio terran in SC2 is kind of like zerg in BW, running around trying to snipe some free stuff.

He will eventually crush..a few months before the game dies.

You lose 1 match, qualify for the next round anyways, and suddenly you don't stand a chance of winning GSL? Wow... lol. Look at the past winners. I bet a lot of them came out 2nd in their group stages at some point. Rain MIGHT be better in PvT than Taeja is currently in TvP but that does not mean he wont win GSL anyways.

Yeah, thats why he went 4-0 against Flash in their last 4 matches in the Proleague Finals and OSL Semfinals. Oov was gone in the military at this time. Flash had the better career in BW obviously, but towards the end Fantasy was superior. It wasnt just the coach, just look at Canata and Ssak.

Fantasy was only superior only with them both playing two games and whereas skt had the luxury of resting fanta in a week leading up to the osl, flash had to prepare for the spl and osl. Fantasy still won of course but the conditions
Was a bit obsecure. Flash did choke big time in spl finals though..
