Teaja is only good in these kind of tournaments.. in Code S he would be crushed easily and he is only doing good in WCS AM because the quality of the players are waaaaay lower...

When he was in Code S he was doing quite well. Guess we can't know for sure how he would do there but I wish people wouldn't assume, "He would dominate Code S" or "he would get crushed in Code S" without him being there.

Are you upset that Taeja is 11-3 against Life in Hots?

With this win, Taeja now has 10 Premiere Championships, and 19 medals. MVP has 9 PT wins and 18 medals. He's making a serious case for himself as Greatest Of All Time, or at least the King of the Swarm

Also, now that he has ten badges on his profile, Taeja has won the prestigious Gary Oak Award.

If he wins what I am now going to classify as a "Mega Tournament" i.e. GSL or Blizzcon or something, then I would be willing to consider him as a potential G.O.A.T. Still hard to beat 4 GSLs even though play wasn't as high level back then.

I think everyone has forgotten that Nestea wasn't was the only person to have a flawless victory before this. Curious also won code A without dropping a single set.

If you count in his homestory cup run, he is undefeated in TvT and TvP. Only Zerg players took games against him there
