New TvP strategy, I want to believe! If anyone can do it, he can.

Maybe get Stork to practice with (I would say Bisu, but he seems like the type who would try to sabotage any potential TvP innovating, lol).

But seriously, how sick would Flash be on SKT1? He'd have Bisu and BeSt to practice TvP against all the time, and oov/boxer there to give tips like they do for Fantasy. He would be unstoppable.

I could only hope it was because he was practicing with Stats and that Stats pvt is for real.

I can't even imagine what Flash could possibly be working on that's mid-late game TvP.

Is it just a new push style? A new timing? Wouldn't take this long to debut I think, and I also don't think he'd have so much confidence in its impact (then again Goliaths did change everything in TvCarrier)

I'm honestly starting to suspect it involves countering Arbiters with Ghosts....

Interesting - that might be why Fantasy sometimes looks so incredibly vulnerable. Rather than having good game sense, he's prepared for multiple situations, but can't prepare for every situation.

Y'know, I'm with you on this one. Other than Valkyries, Ghosts are the underused Terran unit, and works really well against Arbiters, provided you are capable of the micro required. And lockdown can't be dodged once it's cast, although it doesn't work against a clump of Arbs like EMP does.

And I've always dreamed of someone using nukes not as a humiliation tactic, but as a secondary attack simultaneously executed with another attack to divide the opponent's attention.

WOW, alongside the jaedong-stork-bisu one, this is one ofthe best interviews in a while.

also LOL @:
What's your attitude to your haters?
- At first, I was really pissed. Some even said bad things about my parents and I almost thought about reporting to the authority. But I'm more used to them now and try to think positively. I just take them as an expression of attention to me and am beyond being adversely affected by them.

and
Any fan you remember?
- I remember almost all gifts by fans. If I have to pick one, it's the fan who gave me a tiger pajama. I remember it because it was so cute. I haven't wore it and just kept it in closet, but I remember it the most.


still a kid at heart. <3333333333333333

Flash is one of the few progamers who is actually learning how to give interviews, its very refreshing.

Your mind control before a game?
- The idea that I must totally dominate the opponent is always imprinted in my mind. I control my mind by thinking "why should I lose to this guy?"


This is pretty interesting because of that oov quote where he said basically the same thing. Hopefully his success lately is a sign of things to come, very fun player to watch. Hope Violet and Stats stick in there too, its awesome to watch KT do well.

Is it just me or does Flash have really interesting personality?

Seems pretty confident as well. Good for him I guess.

Is this even possible? Seems like ghosts with lockdown would come out pretty late, and by then the Protoss army with one or two arbiters would have rolled over the Terran army which has less units because of the resources going into teching to ghosts/lockdown.

Flash vs BeSt didn't really even make it to the mid-late game. Now imagine that but with Flash having a smaller army thanks to teching to ghosts/lockdown.

Actually, I'm thinking something similar to his new TvZ strategy, where he positions his Bionic troops around Zerg bases, so that the base wouldn't be attacked by Mutals because Zerg fears that Bionic troops would harass expos at any moment.

So, positioning Mechanic troops closer to Protoss bases? So Protoss wouldn't recall because doing so would reduce the amount of units available to defend against the Mechanic troops.

Just a thought. I already see some holes and it ain't perfect...
