that is what I was implying. However viewership numbers count for sponsors

How could Taeja not realize it's there? He saw even drones transferring there with his widow mine, even killed a drone on the way to the 4th.


Tunnel vision, high pressure, the fact that it was a CC first vs a roach bust and it's very hard to know where you and your opponent are in such games, pick the one you like...

I'm 90% he didn't know, why would he have scanned though? he probably thought that Dark was all in on 3 bases.

Yeah, I got quite annoyed by the end of that series, Maynarde does have some serious Taeja bias. If you've really been paying attention to Starcraft 2, I don't think Dark beating Taeja was a surprise; in fact, I would expect him to be the favorite by a fair margin.

But I guess I'm just in the crowd that doesn't understand the Taeja love and hype.


what are you talking about, it wasn´t biased at all

Maynarde is a Terran player and it's noticeable in his commentary. See his commentary at IEM Taipei when Maru holds against Soulkey (?).


So, are you saying that I should expect this commentary every time he casts a terran player this week?

With Maru and Flash I'd pretty much expect that, yes, INnoVation aswell I guess?

a lot of Terrans do that, maybe he just wanted to see how many drones were there

I did not say otherwise.
I prefer playing FPS over RTS actually (Doom, Quake, CS1.6 veteran right here), but not to watch

I find it hard to believe to be honest - especially with the production Dark had, he should even through that realize 4th is mining. And seriously, that one mine saw bunch of drones going to the 4th few times before Dark even realized it was there.

Oh godddd, I don't think I could handle Maynarde casting Flash. If his bias is a terran bias, that is, rather than just a Taeja bias.
