If Fantasy can win Code S surely he can beat 2 zergs to advance...

Looking forward to more games from both players  Easilly enjoyable

A player can be more solid overall but still lose... Unofficial World Champion anyone? Taeja right now is probably the better player, he made gsl ro4 last season with busted wrists. this is coming from a fantasy fan. fantasy did play well above his old WoL level in this series though
I agree that Taeja might be the better player, but I don't agree with the idea that since he won he necessarily played better overall.

I think Taeja got quite lucky, though, with the undetected air switch and sniping the BC's working out far better than normally. Overall Fantasy seemed better.
I agree, but on the other hand moving around the map and killing building/expansions is the key benefit of playing bio/mech while pure mech has a worse scouting ability.

are you for real? He made it to the semis last season and he is injured. If his wrists ever heal properly I think we will see him winning tournaments again

Why are people surprised? Don't you know who TaeJa's coach is?

Taeja is not "washed up", he just has a nagging injury that can be fixed. And he's only 18 years old ffs.

Taeja adjusted to Fantasy's play style better than Fantasy adjusted to Taeja.
Amazing series. Did not disappoint in the slightest.

G2 was close.....if you consider 2 reapers bringing Fantasy's SCV count down to 3 as close. =P

I hope we see some straight up 1-basing from Taeja in the next couple of games. I'm not sure I can cheer for him if the cheeses all the time.

I saw starbuck do a nice hydralisk build against mass muta, worked pretty descent. Someone in gsl has to be the first to exploit mutaplay in hots
