You literally just said: "Baby is the better player today" which is a contradiction because he lost today. There's two positions you can take on rating a player: holistically, in which Taeja clearly wins, or you rate a player based on their specific results from a particular tournament or match, in which Taeja, again, clearly won. | ||

You're still thinking of summer taeja apparently. That taeja is long gone. Hopefully proleague will bring a resurgence of that form back :D | ||

Baby tends to lose games in really dumb ways(such as the arkinoid tvt game) or crush face. This is his best match up, and I believe him to be the better player yet he lost terribly. | ||

The only lost in vT lately is against Polt, which is also a very good player in TvT. | ||

I'm happy that JYP picked up a win too, now we just need a ThorZain stepping it up. And JD needs to get his decision making in line with his insane mechanics. Then EGTL will really be in the top half of proleague :-) | ||

I love SNM, but he just doesn't have the voice for that GG. Plus there is no leadup to it like the Koreans and just comes out as a random scream. It's like... "Hey, what are you doing today?" "Oh I dunno I migh-GEEEE GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" "GEEEEEEEEEEEE" | ||

They can literally be talking about something in a normal voice with no excitement and then a gg happens and they yell GEEEE GEEEE, so it's very fake and forced. | ||

If he is sniped by Protoss, depending you can send Stephano or Taeja out (unless they are both sniped before). IF they are both sniped before, then you could send HerO or JYP for a PvP (quite risky, I know). If he is sniped by a T, then HerO would be a solid choice. | ||

TaeJa still is a strong, code S caliber player even if he's not dominating like in the past. | ||

At least in individual leagues. Never doubted HerO's success, but I still feel like TaeJa is an overall more solid player, sure he's in a slump, but a slump doesn't make you "worse" than someone else it just means you're not winning as much as you have in the past or not performing as well as you have before. If he's inconsistant that would imply that he's doing well like his normal self as well as badly. On his best day Taeja can beat HerO and I'm a huge HerO fan don't get me wrong, we both smoke marlboro reds bro, we're like brothers. | ||
