Top would not lose a BO3 to Taeja, but however he lost that game due to mass reaper, he wouldn't lose to that ever again but he doesn't have a choice.............No he is 0-2 and in Code A next season, What a joke.
Bring back fkn BO3s ffs.
with slightly better tvz, taeja would probably be the best terran in the world

I saw him losing 0-3 to Mr. Gator in NY. XD I've never been a fan of oGs players except Nada and GSL can do without TOP, IMO.

Stupid rant. The format is the same for everyone: 4 games, 4 opponents, need to win 3 out of 4 to make Code S.

Personally I saw someone do camping, waiting for max tanks while hiding bases he couldn't defend, and the other one kept attacking into him with beautiful spreading and just outplaying the camper. Nothing wrong either way, the one who played better won. Like how hard is it to spam tanks and turrets, it's like the lowest apm-requirement build in the whole game.
Mech has to camp vs bio because anytime you attack they drop your main with 3 dropships, lose their army and remax before you even get to their base.
So its camp or die.
Mech vs mech is 10x better than anything involving bio in TvT, because the constant threat of getting your entire base wiped or army destroyed because you were unsieged for 1 second, doesnt exist.
Yeah, the point of playing mech if often waiting for a max army, but "modern" (I mean developed) mech now turret ring their main with +1 range turrets and has viking control so drops don't do that much damage anymore (the threat of drops is way higher vs marine tank than vs MMM). On a map like Terminus, even MVP plays bio, you can form ridiculous arcs and dive into tank lines, sC played that perfectly imo. I know you have to camp, but I just don't agree with your post that said that bio is way easier to play than mech, especially after that game where TOP didn't do anything but producing tanks and sieging them the whole game.
I recall MVP playing mech on terminus against bomber, where his banshees killed 120+ scvs
vs TOP in the grand finals he played bio vs TOP's mech

i'm serious
Nah... come on now... winning ESV tournaments is good and all, but most of those guys are code A/B players...

Top and Taeja are not very far apart in skill probably kind of a toss-up .

Marauders. A tank. I imagine banshess with/without cloak would do to, could just fly into the enemy base where theres no anti air. Although i guess you'd have to do something about a reaper counterattack.

Only Terran can do that, they have so many good unit, they dont even need the reaper lol, none of their unit is useless.

He got 3-0'd by a random Protoss in IEM NY, he's far from invincible. Especially from Taeja, who's a stronger player anyway.

Complaining about TOP losing to a reaper build...
...having opened 2rax (proxy) reapers himself, and then doing nothing with them...
Format is fine.

Pretty big game right now?
If Lucky wins he goes to 2-1 and pegs sC to 2-1.
If sC wins he's presumably through and Lucky is probably out (Taeja at 2-0 with a win over lucky, would require Noblesse and TOP to make a 2-2 tiebreak or something)
