Remember when TaeJa tried GSL this year?

Oh.

Lol.

Terminator top tier.

Totally kidding LOL. Sad that Rain could not win any tournaments in 2014. Hopefully he can have a good 2015 so he can be a candidate for Best Korean Protoss next year!

I do think that Teaja should have been player of the year or Korean player of the year. The number of tournaments was throughout the year and higher, though maybe not quite higher quality, and I simply felt like Zest did not end the year nearly as strong as he started.

They did mention that Polt fought imbalance and nearly won.

I like Bomber for 2014 Korean T. He was incredible. But picking Taeja isn't as ridiculous as some posters are making it seem.

Of current times yes. Definitely not of 2014. A few FPL seasons ago he only cost 2 points.

Maru is soo overrated...see what I did there?

For all the Taeja haters out there, here is a list of the Korean players he beat to win only 2 of his 11 premier titles. Lets look at these 2 events:

1) IEM Shenzhen 2014:

MMA, Life, Zest (3-0!), Jaedong, Solar

2) DH Winter 2013:

Innovation, sOs, ForGG, Hero, MMA, Life, Life again!

Let's not forget his Blizzcon run this year either, defeating BOTH of the current GSL finalists (Innovation & soo) on his way to the semis!

Innovation prefers to face Life instead Soulkey, I guess that says it all.

Except that he'll face the first place from group D, so more likely a P or Maru.
