[2020 GSL S1] Ro.16 Group A Match1 Dark vs TaeJa

[ENG] 2020 GSL S1 Code S RO16 Group A
Group A: Dark, TaeJa, Scarlett, Dear

[@LazerHs]

Never have an hour and a half series felt this short

[@AFryingPan]

Man it was so great seeing TaeJa perform that well. He really gave Dark a run for his money.

[@TheAnimeguy44]

Goddamn. Just a little rough around the edges, but even then he almost took dark. GG taeja good to have you back

[@rezset_]

This was so close. Taeja is insanely good, like he was in the good old days.

[@jontvedt944]

Only good in TvT and TvZ.

[@tarreislam]

@@jontvedt944 lol

[@meleardil]

His tactic was very nice. He lost only because of his micro mistakes. Just a little bit slower reflexes than it was required. Nothing some brutal practice sessions cant fix...

[@FranticRock]

You know the game's amazing when Tastosis stop meming completely and both analyze the game non stop all the way through..... Reverence for the craft.

[@YongyoonKim]

Reverence for the craft, starcraft.

[@jonasliesenfeld]

Keep coming back to this game.. Its my favourite tvz and I think its one of the best games in the last years! Hardly any game of SC2 had this kind of tempo and craziness.

[@gokceaytekin408]

It's good to have you back TaeJa

[@mauriciorossi8477]

This series was almost as exciting as a finals jesus, what a cuthroat down and dirty punch for punch games 1 and 3

[@curtislesure8906]

Best games of the year. As a terran player I'm inspired. You guys are great. My favorite sports casters all time.

[@iBxDiZzzLe]

Amazing games...amazing series....amazing casting... for 1.5 hour STRAIGHT !! Amazing 👏

[@Nathanias]

Match starts at 14:27

[@jmont8742]

We're seeing glimpses of it. I saw new strats from Taeja in this group. He just needs a little bit more practice and we all know how much this guy grinds the f* out. Taeja will contend for the top again soon enough!

[@DrinkinMars]

Whatever you're paying your production, its well worth it. Always entertaining.

[@RolandoAvilaallin]

I can always count on Taeja to perform. It is so nice to have him back. Bloody great games!!

[@taligreen]

his attacks and engagements are spot on, it's the zergling runbys that got to him in games 2 and 3..

[@benfarleyben]

GOOOOO TAEJAAAA!!!!!! I love that you're back. Welcome back my friend.

[@robynmarshall1318]

boy it sure was a good time watching this live, poundin hot6 like a champ

[@YayoLife]

I can't wait for Taeja to come back for real. He is gonna be Maru's worst nightmare. I love Maru but Taeja, he is one of my all time favorite.

[@usfrenchguy]

Taeja's play here reminded me a lot of Maru's, in fact. Expanding all over the place while microing at several places at once, being in the zergs face as much as possible, and being pretty cost-efficient. Not quite as good as Maru though... yet :D

[@AllThingsFascinate]

Maru's worst nightmare? I love Taeja, but come on. Maru is insane these days.

[@niceboke]

Great series, was so excited to watch Taeja play so well. Feel like he could have won if he had some defence at home to slow down that massive ling runby in the third game. He outplayed dark on the field but lost to him economically after that big runby.

[@KENTOSI]

What did I just watch?! That was insane!! :D

[@nerowolf1234]

This one series.....is 4 seconds longer then the entire group stage round of 16 nomination video xD

[@madsthiesen9773]

Glad to see old skool sc2 players showing they still got what it takes

[@relics0078]

That first game gave me chills!

[@elfootman]

Now that was a good game!!!!

[@dylanstamat973]

Boom! Such good games.

[@LokIokI13]

looking good Teaja.

[@RagnarokCo]

It's unfortunate that TaeJa ran into Dark this early because this was definitely Final or Semi Finals worthy play.

[@hhhhippo]

Can someone tell me if the Korean version is on KZbin or somewhere else online?

[@rico4974]

Beautiful game.. Sc2 become interesting now with balanced patch

[@GummBo3]

Rico 497 The new patch hasnt been implemented yet, it’s still on PTR server

[@da_huska]

@@GummBo3 I think he talks about the 2019 patch which fixed the TvZ

[@Wade8419]

@@da_huska Yeah TvZ is so much fun to watch right now. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure the PTR patch will break it if they put it through as is.

[@schach6666]

@@Wade8419 yeah, it is strange. Blizzard is trying to fix pvz, but only suggests changes mainly affecting tvz.

[@just_an_empty_sign]

Wade Bell Nah they need to nerf banes and queens and have for years. PvZ is unwatchable at the pro level.

[@fredyhumbertofloreschipana4088]

I love it

[@admireinspire]

YES!!!😍

[@maximilianw9671]

What a fight!

[@elamateurungido1174]

vamos taeja hagalo sufrir hagalo sufrir, tu venciste a solar en su mas alto nivel competitivo y te coronaste campeon eres el mejor terran de antaño, demuestrale a dark que es un zerg de pacotilla

[@47StormShadow]

huge props to Taeja for not giving up

[@maxfarouk3407]

oms hearing tastoastless trying to read made my day

[@waredsan2248]

taeja is coming back!

[@tomeetjerry]

Love Taeja !!!

[@lazygamer7469]

Taeja's solution to Terran vulnerability because of expansion seems to be to trade expansions. However Zerg mobility on creep counters multiple prong drops.

[@seanaldmcseansington]

GG Taeja!

[@Jaze2022]

wouldn't 1 or 2 hell bats at each base completely shut down all ling counterattacks?

[@BecomeMonke]

I want to see taeja vs innovation again

[@qwertziop0]

wonder what a bo7 would have looked like if it would have been a 4:1 beatdown after dark adapted or extremely close, after game one taeja looked so insanely good. he will become one of the best again for sure.

[@xximjasonxx]

Case study how to deal with lurkers if you play Terran

[@yeokc8757]

Game 2 and 3 are officially my fav matches of the year Right infront of Clem v Reynor in Xelnaga's Finest loll

[@mr.aiyaya1727]

TaeJa is good, Dark has to be careful ^_^

They are actually good casters when they only talk about the game

Dumb question but why isn't serral here :D

[@jundrayling9576]

You have to be in Korea for the tournament and Serral currently is not.

[@Aguyfrom225]

55:15 money can solve everything

[@emilyliu3688]

Lack of common sence if u know zerg always goes running zerlings

[@Sapreme]

Banelings are so stupidly strong right now its unreal. They counter absolutely everything for just a little gas. Ling Bling Muta? More like Ling Bling Bling, since 4 blings are way stronger than a single muta in today's meta.

[@peterhardie4151]

Yeah, the zerg economy.

[@dab_yeetus]

Ez Terrans are always ez, no matter how much they give you reaper regen and medivac boost. And widow mines. Cry more, you'll get a brand new crutch, that's the Blizzard way

[@Brettsauces]

@@dab_yeetus sorry our units require tons of micro vs a move zerg lol

[@DERderZOCKT]

Taeja didnt have tanks in that game tho... ( i assume you mean game 2 ) what really killed him were the ling runbys tho

[@liampett1313]

they are getting nerfed however

[@kafkick82]

zerg is op as fuck, unreal, blizzard knew it like 1 year before, took 1 fucking year to fix this shit.

[@PAnh-kv3xy]

TaeJa have lost to zerlings in game 3.. 1 or 2 bunker might have helped

[@kafkick82]

2 bunkers + 8 marines = 600 mineral + 8 units. and that 2 bunkers aint do shit against ling, banling runby, unless you put that fucking bunkers in every fucking base, then you are unable to push out even move out, cuz all your units are in defence position, lol, you dont play sc2, dont you?

[@muhammadzinc5228]

Terran so broken. Even if Zerg can outpower you, just snipe his bases due to how fast MMM's DPS is, then fly outta there with medivac boost (why does boost still exist?) Z has no option.

[@straycatnip]

Love watching zerg win when terran homer tasteless casts.

[@VadimOm]

Zerg spellcasters are bullshit! Bring back old Raven

[@AllThingsFascinate]

Terran has to be so much better to beat zerg. It's dumb how many free advantages zerg gets. Why does every map have a raised platform for observers? Full vision on creep. Viper abilities are overpowered and unlimited, recharging on buildings. It's just dumb.

[@anthonydavis7651]

zerg is broken. might as well call it zergcraft

[@NyarukoLove]

Terran is just an overbalance of all sc2 races

[@Monojoe]

LMAO World champion shmorld shmampion

[@BukovTervicz]

Serral is so much better than Dark it's not even funny

[@Sam_Hyde_Apologist]

the beginning intro animation is so cringe

[@Sam_Hyde_Apologist]

the casters out here showing their bias against zerg

[@jooka24]

The only reason Zerg won is because its Zerg

as I said, TaeJa is talented, but he is damp he is not able to complete, bring to the end

[@p1ls726]

bro he has been out of the pro scene for years and just played an amazing series. He took the best zerg on the planet to 3 games and gave him all he could handle. Relax

[@kafkick82]

as you said, you are fucking idiot, that was zerg, the fucking stupid ez race has been beaten Taeja.

[@tamasvarga5905]

0 scv-s vs 40+ drones, tier 1 mmm vs ultra infestor viper ling ( in greater numbers too) but terran still in the game and has a chance to turn it around. What a bad joke. B Lizard seriously needs to nerf mules.

[@enhncr]

I hate it! They are so biased towards this *** teja. and scarlet!!! I hate it!!

[@ImaginaryNumb3r]

because it's usually more interesting to see the underdog prevail

[@liampett1313]

Ever heard of a massive underdog? Everyone likes an underdog story

[@straycatnip]

@@liampett1313 neither of them are major underdogs

[@liampett1313]

@@straycatnip Dark has won 3 GSL's and is a favorite in nearly every match-up. Taeja just got out of the military and wasn't even expected to beat special let alone dark. Is there a bigger underdog? It's like the equivalent of kiwian winning GSL...

[@straycatnip]

@@liampett1313 taeja was a pro before military, Scarlett has been a pro foe long time. It wasn't like Dark was facing some new teenage wonderboy from nowhere. Even Vegas would have given them decent odds to win. They were not massive underdogs. Control your hate for zerg.
