    I'm near certain that she and Geoff are actually best friends.

    May be true. But its weird. no one should ever joke about their mothers to the uninitiated audience. I completely understand that they were all joking. but it was still awkward as all god damn. I just wish that these streams were a little more... professional? maybe that sounds weird to be talking about a game tournament stream. but whatever.

    So, anyone think this is going to be close, or are we rooting for a clear underdog MC victory?

    ghosts continue to be complete bullshit.

    Terran continues to be broken as fuck.

    Whats new.


    How can anyone look at that game and think it is balanced.

    Because we understand that Taeja outplayed MC.

    But he didn't.

    The one thing that taeja did that was remotely good was use the auto turrets at the natural.

    Taeja has the best ghost control in the world, and excellent storm dodging. The game was over when MC clumped up four of his templar and let them get hit with one EMP.

  • jaziekjaziek Registered User regular
    Exactly. Good ghost control - hard counters protoss.

  • mEEksamEEksa Registered User regular
    Good ghost control hard counters bad templar control, yes. Especially when you have no Colossi supporting.

    if the ghost control is good, the protoss should never be able to get a feedback off, let alone a storm.

    And the colossus switch should simply never work. Terrans can scout it as it happens, and they already have all the tech they need to get the counter up in good time, whereas protoss has to invest in the tech switch.

    Wow, what an incredible timing by Taeja. He had that small window to make his upgrade advantage count before MC got too many storms out, and he hit it perfectly.

  • SceptreSceptre Registered User regular
    Aw yeah suck it taeja.

    oooh. And there's the flipside.

    And that's why you don't go up a ramp when you don't know whats waiting for you at the top.

    Taeja showing why he's playing the best SC2 in the world right now.

  • KharnastusKharnastus Registered User regular
    so this tvp thing. is it normally skewed vs terran, or is taeja just that much better than MC?

    What, really? best SC2 in the world? Sure he's playing great but that last game was just pure medivac OP bullshit.

    In Taeja's defence, MC is delaying tech so hard, I really don't understand why.

    EDIT: To further clarify: the deciding moment in that game was the first massive engagement with storm. MC landed terrific forcefields, nailed his storms, had an upgrade AND supply advantage, and came out behind.

  • TheBogTheBog Registered User regular
    Why are there no colossi. That's like complaining that fungal doesn't do anything when there are 10 medivacs hovering overhead... Well yeah... That's why you bring in banelings.

    If you've seen him in IPTL over the last month, yeah. He is completely dismantling every Protoss he plays. All the top PvT players, Squirtle, MC, Puzzle, Creator, Genius, Taeja has beat them all.

  • SceptreSceptre Registered User regular
    He very easily has the best TvP in the world. But that game was not particularly demonstrative of it.

    I'll have to watch that battle again, but I think Taeja had even upgrades and higher supply. And while the forcefields were great, they only trapped a part of the army. It wasn't as silly as you make it sound.

    Hasn't Terran been getting their shit kicked in in tournaments the past 2 months?

    Ugh, losing charge like that usually means GG.

    TvP win rates for june were 51-49 in terran's favour, which was the most recent one I could find.

    cool the finals we expected and the winner we expected

    and lol terran is OP in tvp. fantastic. I wish I saw the series.


    taeja is more dominant than any other player right now. also MC beat him a couple of weeks ago. but I'm sure this series is strong evidence that t is OP

    edit - ah good I found vods

    Tax free weekend! Time for new kicks before active duty!

    The sound of eight hooves reaches his ears, comes from the heavenly light, two wolves howls fills his heart with fear, and he sees two ravens fly. Down from the sky a warlord rides, like fire his one eye glows, and just before the preacher dies he knows his god is false.
