He still has dream hack winter right?

Nothing this year can make up for Blizzcon


He killed both GSL Finalists. He's beaten every Premier Finalist this year except Trap, Jjakji, Classic and PigBaby some time during his year. He's beaten 5/6 GSL Finalists this year. He had a hell of a year.


when did Taeja beat herO?


they never played. He also didnt beat Parting. Dear or Sen.

"except" is the word that sums up Taeja's entire career.

aside pigbaby, he didn't beat them because they didn't play.

For those asking, Taeja's playing in anything he's already qualified for. Meaning DH Winter and the IEM World Championships. He also accepted his invite to HSC X. Those are the only tournaments he will be playing, and then he'll be hanging it up.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

:[

Same here... Sad to see his career end this way.

Welll at least he overcame the TvT problem and i can laugh at people calling Life KeSPA.

hell play at DH:Winter right? He still has one chance for a championship.

It's not about winning another championship, it was about winning THE championship at the end. HSC X and DHW would be nice victories, but they can't be compared to this one.

Maybe it is TaeJa's to never win the really big stuff

He will still go down as one of the greatest terrans and players to ever play this game, right beside good ol' MVP


Mvp actually won the big tournaments he entered and he invented SC2 terran macro style when everyone else was playing Terran as a gimmicky all-in race.

Not comparable.

In other news: this game Life did:

1. Die
2. Cheese into waiting for TaeJa to do enough slip-ups.
3. All-in (yes, that ling-bane bust was planned for fuck's sake).
4. Cheese into die
5. Ling-bane bust


could do the same with Taeja

...5. Playing stupidly greedy

1. TaeJa.
2. TaeJa playing with his wrists cut off
3. TaeJa being predictable
4. TaeJa
5. TaeJa playing with his wrists cut off.

Here, version for TaeJa.

Stop the salt now.

Game 1: Life was way too greedy and got punished.
Game 2: cheese vs. cheese into somewhat normal game with Life ahead into Life losing his 4th into madness attack killing 50 workers but due to him having only 1 base mining (main and nat mined out) not instantly winning. Muta flock too big for Taeja to ignore, so Life could establish his 4th and win off that base.
Game 3: hard counter to a map-dependant build from Taeja
Game 4: failed all-in/well defended by Taeja
Game 5: baneling bust (decision for that bust fell when Life confirmed Taeja's third being landed imo).


Hey, my recap is not that much different except where you notice the part where both in game 2 and 5 TaeJa had serious and rather uncharacteristic mistakes to go with builds at certain points.


Exactly. He made serious mistakes so he played worse and didn't deserve to win because of it.

No, he's All-Time Great. No question.

Life is also, All-Time Great. MMA needs this blizzcon for consideration.
