Congrats Taeja!

I loved the tournament, but I didn't like Destiny's casting at all. He's good fun on his own stream, sure, but he tends to overshadow other -less vocal- players who, imho, have a more interesting view on the game.

There should be special title for winning multiple titles in one regions - maybe King of Korea/Europe/America for winning 5 titles in region.

Mvp's achievements are more impressive, but honestly I don't think the difference is as big as people make it out to be- the average player was much, much weaker when Mvp had his period of dominance than today.

ofc you can't compare two periods. However you can compare the prestige of two tournaments (eg sc2 premier include both gc and masters 1000 in tennis)

His wrists are still more or less shot so yeah very likely. Not necessarily this year, but I'd be surprised if Taeja was playing this time 2015. As long as he keeps playing his wrists will give him problems.

He needs to improve his technique. I know a doctor who specializes in wrist/mouse problems who could clean that right up for him.

Congrats Taeja!! Missed all of his games though, so let's check out some VODs!

Anyone knows where I can find the Jaedong vs Stork BW showmatch, without looking through all Take's broadcasts during HSC?

edit: found

Life is just 2 titles away and he has won GSL and Blizzard Cup. He may have something to say about it. Obviously he is less frequent player outside korea but then again - it can be said about most of the players on korean teams, as everyone is involved in Proleague.

with the state of the scene the number of title isn't that meaningful. Taeja will never be the greatest if he doesn't win sthg big in Korea imo.

I actually agree with the idea that Taeja is not the greatest of all sc2 time, neither the best player/terran in the world. Maybe not even the best at HSC. But I also think that Taeja already knows that, knows he is not the best, maybe not even in the top10, not in the top 20 or more some would say, but who cares. Probably not him. He just won the tournament and it is already huge. And this is the only thing we should look at. Well played Taeja, you deserved it. Just play and enjoy every minute of your career until the very end, without thinking about what would have happened if you were still a Gsl or Proleague contender. Play for yourself and not for the others, because you are the only one who knows what is good for you and your career.

There was another 5 post account that kept making excuses every time TaeJa won a map against Scarlett, stuff like "Map is imbalanced" or "hellbats", it was pretty funny.
