God, I love me some Taeja.

Hope he can take the whole thing. Literally never get sick of seeing him win.

I really think it goes largely unnoticed .. but Solar has been in a different world for about 3 months. If he can keep it up, I predict him winning everything in the next few months.

wasn't solar hyped once before followed by him crushing down?

seriously, we need to wait a few months before calling someone the next big thing. most of the recent "next big things" crashed down after one decent tournament showing or a few good proleague weeks.


Sometimes it's fun to make a prediction before something happens ... everyone has ups and downs ... even Flash before he was the end all - be all in BW. But Solar, it feels like, is doing something very different than other Zerg players.

Solar can beat TaeJa?

4-0 in a Bo5?


He means JD didn't deserve the one win he got. If we had the buffed WMs for that game, I'm pretty sure he would have died, regardless of taking the favorable early engagement.

Man the dong just totally choked this series. Even though he won that second game, I think Taeja psychologically defeated him. Its like "I'm throwing everything at him and he JUST WONT DIE!"

Realistically solar will dominate the rest of this tournament.

I'd love to see Jim vs Taeja finals, and if Solar does beat Jim I'd love to see Taeja grab an IEM but I doubt it.

Still summer guys TaeJa has a 90% chance to win this unless Jim's hometown hero advantage can surpass it.

he only lost against hero at the height of his career, while taeja was on the low of his career, at dreamhack winter 2012.

basically, when taeja smells blood, he fucking tears his prey apart.

JD's ZvT just isn't up to par with Taeja's. Scarlett seems better (Better muta control, creep spread, smarter i.e. only engages on creep).
