Why does Tasteless have such a good voice? Reminds me of the time when he was my favorite caster


He sounds exactly like Will Arnett.

Taeja. All those titles over the years, showing time and time again that he can beat the best players in their times, winning games even when terran as a race was struggling, may it be against broodlord/infestor and the end of WoL or the protoss dominance in HotS, but never getting the really big title. There it is. Don't let Artosis stop you: Go, win blizzcon.


This - now Taeja just needs to win versus the ultimate Uberboss to crown his career:

MMA doesn't rly do new meta things.
He practices a couple of standard plays and a couple of cheeses and that's that about strategy as well.
But then, and this happens only when he's on his A+ game, he will start dropping you.
Mby the natural for starters, wait a minute, he's also microing some hellions in the spawn but.. could that be? a double 2medivac drop in 2 different positions, all that while he fends off your main army with the left over scraps using some otherwordly micro.
The in-game observer goes nuts, rapidly clicking on the minimap to catch this whole deadly banquet, paid at your expense of your inability to micro at the same dizzying heights he does.

For MMA is talent.

Pretty much sums up MMA.
#1 MMA fan! I like you too Taeja. Still patiently waiting for the Crown Prince to become the King.

there's really no consistency in sc2, you have to completely ignore certain tournaments to imply anyone's ever been consistent.

Except Taeja. His list just goes on and on

every player has lost to players they in theory shouldn't lose to, even at their peaks.

so far every game ive watched have been bad:
1st: Lame ZvT, with boring Terran kiting.
2nd: PvZ, long game with sworm host....
3rd: TvT, lots of disc and long delays.
4th: PvT... watched 2 games, some pauses. both terran wins. The 'best' games ive watched, but of course, terran had to win...

Maybe it has been unlucky watching the worst games, but this has been brutal.

come on, half the titles of mvp were in 2010-2011, where terran was as op as hell.

i know nostalgia makes that our concept of mvp's legacy is that of a great champion. for me, the guy just cheeses the fuck out of every final. no mastermind, no superior mechanics, just pure balls and cheddar.


I argue and still do his 2012 run was what made him a legend. His 2010-2011 was way more dominant, but no one really remembers that. We remember how he set up a 7 game series against Squirtle and only using the 11/11 in the last set because that would be at its highest most effective timing. We remember him for creating hellion banshee vs Zerg after bombing out of HSC. He realized he couldnt keep going on playing TvZ as it was made and recreated it in a way so he could still be competitve.


Yea, we all remember that finals vs Squirtle. It was epic. Also I remember his finals vs TOP, and the epicness of mass nukes.

But I disagree with you in one point: in his GSL 2012 finals vs Life, yea, Mvp invented the hellion banshee opener, but instead, he went for 2fact blue flame hellion almost every single game in that finals. That build is almost a cheese and was around since 2011 when MMA popularized it.


Thinking about how the end of WoL played out, I actually think Mvp was right to go for that cheesy style tbh.
