The way I see it know is that TaeJa will win Dreamhack. It's not that I think he's a better player than INnoVation, in fact I think INnoVation is definitely better overall, I just think that TaeJa is better at TvT so will win against Inno.

innovation is better over all? Taeja has better results vs all races. Innovation was great when hellbats were good, now that Blizz balanced them innovation dropped down.


Moving on from the fact that he's currently #1 while TaeJa is #5 (a difference of 2.2k WCS points) let's analyse the match-ups.

TvZ - INnoVation is better (by a country mile).
TvP - INnoVation is better (only slightly though).
TvT - TaeJa is better (considerably).

I think the main reason people try to make out that TaeJa is better than Inno is because TaeJa is regularly beating him. But that's only because TaeJa is really strong in that match-up whilst it is INnoVation's main weakness.


Innovation hella good agaisnt other races but taejja has the edge agaisnt t

Country mile is an exaggeration.


Maybe but only just. INnoVation is a TvZ God, whereas TaeJa is only exceptional.

I think Taeja is better at TvP than Inno. he manhandled Rain, and sos.

and taeja isn't that much worse at TvZ.


INnoVation destroyed Rain as well when Rain was playing well. Rain really fucked up against TaeJa badly. Also that series against sOs.,.. yay really. INnoVation did 4-0 vs sOs, what do you want? :D

What are you smoking Taeja's TvP is the best in the business, a level above other terrans.

As someone who had been away from the scene for a long time, but chose to watch DH, I've gotta say: Widow mines really ruin TvZ. I'm a Protoss player and always enjoyed TvZ, but its just not the same anymore. Plain and simply bad for the game.

Nah, he's just very direct, he's speaking to every fan.

He's zerg rushing every fan, because that's how he communicates. (:

this game is the best example to show how terrible widow mines are. pure randomness.

Yes, Mines were totally the problem this game.

Widowmines are what held Life's all-in which should have killed Taeja's greedy build.


Zerg can't complain about greedy builds, unless it's 3CC before rax.

What


You hatch first 90% of the time, how was Taeja's build greedy? He built enough for defense and got a third CC.

hatch first has been standard in tvz since forever. my question still stands, and without a question mark.


And my response still stands, you can't say a build with starport tech before third is "greedy".

so unless 3 cc before rax, 2 base zerg all in should never hurt terran. ok.


It did hurt terran quite a bit, they were equalized but Life never got a third. I also haven't seen all that many 2 base all-ins from terran kill Zerg lately.
Show me what passes for fury amongst your misbegotten kind.

Also, statistically, Taeja's worst match up by FAAAR is TvT.

Statistically, Taeja took a massive, steaming number two on Innovation's face last night in TvT. Here's hoping he does it again.


omg you're pretty good

Thats only your opinion. A lot of people would tell you Taeja is the best TvP.
