People keep saying that maru is the best terran in the world, but I think Taeja is better. Maybe classic is way better than any of the players taeja has faced...Maru army positioning and decision making seems to be a weakness.

How was Protoss outplayed all game? Classic's build choice got him an advantage in early game?

Maru sniped tech and a Nexus and I don't know what happened maybe he relaxed or had his attention elsewhere but he still needs to deal with Classic's army.

Also that PDD drop was sick, Gumiho showed a game on Whirlwind once doing it, so sick

Something i didn't understand about that game. Maru seemed to be winning and 30 seconds later, he has no army and Classic is destroying his main. wtf?


Main armies engaged. But, Maru's Vikings were outside the party and showed up too late for the dance.

It's hard to compare Maru to Taeja, Maru is only in Korea whereas Taeja is bashing Koreans that travel a lot.

Considering i'm pretty good for not balance whining (i've had a few moments i'll admit) thats pretty funny coming from YOU!

But overall I try not to balance whine. And no "protoss good race" does not count as balance whine lol. I was kinda joking when I said that.

Taeja doesn't play any competition anywhere near what Maru faces.

Taeja is a top level Terran, but he'd get fucking WRECKED if he played in the GSL.

There's a reason he doesn't.

Taeja hasn't won a single season of WCS America. That says all you ever need to know about how good Taeja actually is vs competitive competition.

I think Classic would have won against Taeja at Dreamhack. :/

So is Classic the new Protoss in the trend of Protosses that rise to become the best in the world?

They both have their strengths, but I rate Maru a bit higher overall. And yeah, Classic is a tier higher than the likes of HerO atm.

I don't see Taeja matching SK and Classic, honestly. We'll likely never see if I'm right or wrong though.

Taeja has better lategame TvP, Maru is a god at relentless MMM midgame aggression and trading, although I am seeing him play more for later stages of late, which is a pity as it's been both effective for him and damn entertaining

Controlling MMM and splitting and kiting is different from controlling that plus Vikings and Ghosts, Taeja is definitely better at that than Maru and indeed anyone.

? Taeja is on better form than he's ever been, and he made several GSL ro8/ro4s. Calm your tits.
