No it's unwatchable on twitch for me.

This works though.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I'm on MTV, and I now remember why I stopped watching the french casters that are not Pomf or Thud.

Those casters are so ONE-SIDED, god.

I may be missing something, but I think Life has won as many premier tournaments (and arguably harder ones at that) as Taeja, and their careers started out roughly the same way at roughly the same time. What makes you feel that Life needs to prove himself further while Taeja doesn't?

You are wrong, TaeJa won more premiers, but you could argue the quality of the tournaments if you want.


I don't think we actually need to argue the quality of said tournaments.

But anyway:
GSL, MLG, Blizzard Cup, ISQ, MLG, IEM, DHW

I count seven!

+ Show Spoiler +
Before someone tries to hang me, yes I am aware that Taeja has 7 gold medals and Life only 6

Hahah, no there's not really any argument about who had harder tournaments, but that doesn't stop people. :D

Last time Taeja played Life when they were both at their best, Life made Taeja look like a scrub.

Taeja was not at his best then. He had already started to fall off. That was like the week after he had lost TWICE to crank at MLG. He hadn't fallen completely off but it was definetly not his clear cut best. And also lets be honest that was when Zerg was starting to be kind of broken. The rest of the GSLs that year were all incredibly Zerg favored and all won by zergs and the finals of the rest of GSLs were all ZvZs.

Life won a GSL at his best, Taeja didn't, the end.

What an achievement with Zerg at the end of WoL!


Yes, it was an achievement with zerg even at the end of WoL. My god people's memories of that time are so clouded its ridiculous.

Quite on the contrary, I do remember very well HyuN vs Sniper followed by RorO vs Symbol as finals.


Indeed. And?

MVP was a scrub too because he used imba Terran during GomTvT? Just a ridiculous argument.

Mvp proved he could win even with when Terran was weakened. Where are Sniper and RorO now? Are Symbol and HyuN still potential Code S winners?

To be fair in WCS seasons 1 and 2 in HotS symbol was top 8

Indeed. Now Code B. Probably Code S RO16 at his best currently.


They are better than MVP is now. Your argument makes no sense. Sniper won the GSL. Not the race, the player.

In WCS Europe.

Yep not doing anything ever since hellbats got nerfed. See what I did?

You did nothing since you missed the point. Some players proved that they didn't need their race to be the dominant one to win. Some fell shortly after their race was back to normality, maintaining the doubts.

I can't believe some punks dare to compare TaeJa to Life, guys won 2 premiers on Korean soil, TaeJa has won mediocrishly stacked foreign tournaments...Like Homestory cups and satellite dreamhacks...

Taeja was also the most consistent terran in 2012 in the GSL by far. He only missed 2 ro8s all year. He didn't win one but made ro4 twice and ro8 twice and did this mostly when terrans were really struggling. Plus those tournaments were much more stacked that you might realize. And don't forget IPL TAC 3 where he went 23-3 iirc against ONLY korean teams.

Just stop with the Mvp bashing. Better comparison would be a terran that managed to win GSL and then never got back to the throne... use Jjakji as example if you want but comparing Mvp to Sniper, Hyun is just stupid. Mvp was winning/getting to GSL finals through the whole WoL era.

He has serious health issues which is quite different from having your shining moment and then falling of into nothingness.
