I don't believe it will happen but what a brainfuck would it be if TaeJa wins IEM.

it would be pretty damn surprising but I would still take someone like patience or hydra as a bigger shock based off taeja's career track record

Imagine if Taeja retires Naniwa style. Trying to 2rax Dark and going down 0-1 and forfeiting lol. Katowice could be the home of the annual rage quit retirement. I'd rather have Taeja win the tournament though.

Of course yes. In fact, there are only six players that I consider as good candidates for the title, based on their form : herO, Maru, INnoVation, Life, Rain and Dark.

So life knocked down Innovation from GSL a couple week ago, the serie could have been an easy 3-1 for Life and yet everyone is predicting Innovation, thats interesting.

If you watched the stream innovation looked like he was zoned out. His eyes were not animated. He'll bring his game this time though. Even when inno wasn't playing properly, he brought it to 2-3.

That was desperation. He knew what he was up against and realized it was hopeless.

Probably performed better than he expected. ;p

WOW lol it's rare as fuck that I disagree with most of the popular votes let alone all of them. I disagree with every single majority vote!

I have Fantasy > Rain

Hydra > Zest (really surprised that the majority picked Zest on this one)

Innovation > Life

Dark > Taeja (this is such a toss up... who the fuck knows? I picked Dark thinking Taeja likely won't be in his best form)



I don't blame anyone for picking Rain over Fantasy or Life over Innovation or especially Taeja over dark, but I can't believe that so many think Zest will beat Hydra. I think that's very foolish and people are stuck in the past when Zest was arguably the best toss in the world.


I can understand your opinion on the latter, but I'm curious, why fantasy over rain?

I have FanTa over Rain too, basically I think that FanTaSy will randomly play godly as he can sometimes do. Additionally Rain isn't too comfortable in the MU as shown by his recent losses against Dream and Miso. FanTa looks like he's pretty bad at TvP too, but well.
