There's a line though between Taeja bashing or claiming he isn't a very good player and "welcome back to Korea" which just states that the competition there is much tougher than what Taeja has been playing/winning. Notice how Taeja never won WCS America. He always has the potential for deep runs in even the most stacked of tournaments. He had a bad series, but he's still a top 5 terran imo Top2 without much question Yeah but you probably put Flash as the other one  Nope, it's Bogus watch out for Gumigod No chances of entering the Terran top5 before months. Plus his strong TvZ won't be of much use in the first season Would you say MKP is top 5? I think you would Not even top10 as far as I'm concerned, but since he's qualified in both leagues he has the opportunity to make a triumphant ascent! Not even after his hot6 cup run?
My problem with his run was that, even if he played well and more solid than he used too, his opponents derped so much on their own that he appeared better than what he probably is. Besides, there was only one match-up. But I keep my eyes on him, and I'm curious to see his match vs FanTaSy

All the MVP ID changes confused me way too much for that. Wasn't he Sangho at some point too?

Okay, but using that logic, we can safely say that Zest, sOs, soO all suck now because they failed to qualify in both GSL and SSL, even though we all know they are completely capable players. soO has never won a tournament (EDIT: this is a lie, he actually won the 2011 MLG vs PL Invitational but who gives a shit about that!!), but he's placed so consistently in the past that we recognize(d) him as a top-tier player. When your sample size is one match, there aren't enough "results" to make a significant statement about anything. Taeja got through the qualifiers for both GSL and SSL. They were not preparation-based. He lost in Ro32. That does not mean that Taeja cannot do well in preparation-based tournaments.
The original post was about Taeja being able to do well in Korea. Taeja did great in Korea. He reached the Ro8 twice and Ro4 twice. This completely contradicts what you are trying to say. I don't understand why you think that he's "always done poorly in Korea" when that's simply not the case.
I think this discussion is (and should be) over now. Do note, I like Terran players, but Taeja is not some absolute favorite of mine. I don't mind when he wins, and I don't mind when he loses. But I do mind when people make false statements and silly assumptions.

Let the results tell the story instead You must hate on a lot of players if your only standard is "He never won a GSL." He made it to the ro8 and semis multiple times, which is more than 90% of Koreans. Then he won a boatload of events around the world which is more than any player of any nationality can say. He's a top 3 terran and top 5 player of all time. Losing this bo5 doesn't change that No, cause most of these players aren't considered the savior of race X. Taeja kinda is though, which makes me not liking him for a very weird reason (that part might be irrational, i would agree  ) I don't think anything i said is wrong though
One thing I would like to say is that in both of his games in the Global finals were preparation based where he won both and the match where he only had a night to prepare he lost.

Precisely. I think anyone who saw the 5 games between Taeja and terminator could see that Taeja was the far superior player in the first 2 games, and in the last 3, I would still say Taeja was the better player. The difference was that Terminator came prepared with builds to throw Taeja off. It was specifically prepared to beat him. Terminator knew in advance how he is going to advance through the game. For example game 5, Taeja was playing, reacting off the fly, on what he sees, which leads to him over making Vikings and not enough ground. It was a build that was rare and Taeja reacted superbly(until the engagement, where he really should have one shot the collosus first instead of a-move the Vikings). Whereas you see for terminator, no gateway early on, at the right moment, about 8 more gateway, 2 rounds of warpin, Taeja still producing Viking. The build beat Taeja, not the player. Whereas if you look at Classic vs Cure game 5, Classic was all round the better player, gaining incremental advantages, pulling Cure apart.
Maybe Taeja do not have the same kind of support as the Kespa team where the team gets behind the player as they help to prepare and dissect the opponent. Taeja is a monster at weekend tournaments which is like the qualifiers.
Personally I think qualifiers and weekend tournaments are tougher, you do not know who is next, you do the meta builds, and take on all comers. It's like playing on ladder. But in Korea, with the GSL, SSL and Proleague, you get better games. Games that are really at the cutting edge, players play better because they are practicing for this one game on this one map(Proleague) against this one player for a whole week. This kind of tournaments doesn't suit Taeja as much. But it doesn't take anything away from him as an awesome player. The stats do not lie.

SangHo was his BW handle.

Taeja's 2 quarters and semis were before the Kespa Invasion. The effect of having a strong powerful team behind you to prepare cannot be understated.

Completely agreed with what you said there. The series doesn't make me feel Terminator is a better player at all. Guess you need a coach to perform well in korean league... TaeJa need CHOYA! Or at least someone who can observe the match and give him advice in between.

No they weren't. Neither of Taeja's semi's were before the Kespa switch.

No, cause i never said that Taeja sucks EVER (i think). But i do think that taeja is probably one of the most overhyped (don't tell me this means he sucks, it doesn't) players in the sc2 scene despite the lack of results in preparation based tournaments.
You mention his resutls back in gsl (2 years ago), sure these results are pretty good, no question, but as i stated mutliple times now, a player who is considered THE BEST should do even better than that imo.
But i guess in the end it won't matter, Taeja will be remembered as a top5 player of all time (cause of his numerous rather "easy" wins), i just won't agree with that.
Feel free to disagree though, haha

Is that really a double reverse sweep? Omg^^

But I do mind when people make false statements and silly assumptions. No, cause i never said that Taeja sucks EVER (i think). But i do think that taeja is probably one of the most overhyped (don't tell me this means he sucks, it doesn't) players in the sc2 scene despite the lack of results in preparation based tournaments. You mention his resutls back in gsl (2 years ago), sure these results are pretty good, no question, but as i stated mutliple times now, a player who is considered THE BEST should do even better than that imo. But i guess in the end it won't matter, Taeja will be remembered as a top5 player of all time (cause of his numerous rather "easy" wins), i just won't agree with that. Feel free to disagree though, haha
His victories over soO and INnoVation at WCS World were Bo5 preparation matches though. Ironically, he lost the match he didn't have the time to prepare.

Actually in the past his post-loss tweets would indicate that there WOULDN'T be a next time, so I think this is a marked improvement ^^

Taeja's 2 quarters and semis were before the Kespa Invasion. The effect of having a strong powerful team behind you to prepare cannot be understated. No they weren't. Neither of Taeja's semi's were before the Kespa switch.
Taeja first semi was GSL season 4 2012. Kespa had 2 players invited. Jaedong and someone else. The next season, was when Kespa start playing GSL proper, only few players made it.
Then GSL season 1 2013. Taeja made semis again. 4 Kespa players were Roro, Bogus, Soulkey and TY. Roro beat Taeja 4-1 in the semis and go on to win the tournament. Taeja left for America. But it was BL-infestors days in WOL. So probably didn't mean much as legit results.
