Notice the people saying it's the biggest crowd they've seen are noobies. I highly doubt Stork or Flash are saying "wow this tha biggest crowd I've seen!"

Not saying Shine and Movie are low skill, they're just new to being deep in starleagues. That's all.


Notice how it was Flash who said that.


Flash probably meant for one of HIS group stage matches - so that kind of wouldn't include all the stuff from 3+ years ago.

Though your name is Shine, it doesn't mean you're really shining. You're nowhere near Protoss-destroyer.

Stork seems to think otherwise.


Also, calling flash the winner seems like a bit of an understatement.

Flash did not just win, he raped the Dong. He made the Dong look like a no name Zerg.

If Shine somehow knocks Stork out of the tournament, I severely doubt anyone remaining in the two Starleagues is even remotely capable of challenging Flash in a BOX series.

Fun fact, if Flash wins 7 more games in a row (Resulting in an 11 win streak, which is actually reasonable for Flash), he'll break a 70% lifetime winrate. I think that'd make him the first player with over 300 games to have a 70% overall winrate.

Next game is on the Match Point, not really the most friendly map for Zerg. But who knows what will happen. That's exactly the map on which Flash streak was broken...

Are you serious? This was a translation first of all. It obviously wasn't the biggest Starleague crowd he'd ever seen because every finals crowd is like 10x bigger. So clearly there were some implications built in to his statement. I can't believe you're taking a translation and saying "let's just take it word for word and turn off our brains".

The translation is right, but flash probably meant for group stages. obviously more people will show up to a finals than they would to a ro8 week 1 series.

There are 3 people who are in both tournaments. And they are all fighting each other or at least not to get knocked out by Flash

Flash's TvZ is very very good. But as shown by the Zero and Hyun game, its not invincible and it gets less invincible as the days grow since he uses the same strat. Every zerg remaining has the capabilities to watch his replays and prepare themselves enough to put up a damn good challenge to Flash's TvZ.

Nope. Flash lost his game against Hyun because he made a very silly mistake at the beginning. He did not make a turret next to his mineral line. (Flash and Turret, a never ending tragic tale of epic proportion) Due to that, he lost like, what, 15 scv to muta. If he placed just that one more turret, he would have won. I am sure he won't make the same mistake ever again.

But what's fricking amazing about Flash v.s. Hyun is that despite Hyun gain such an overwhelming upperhand at the beginning of the match, and had double the economy and double of the army over Flash, Flash stayed alive in the game until he was completely mined out. His TvZ is unreal. It is safely to start calling FvZ now.

Face it, no Zerg in existence is capable of taking a BOX series from Flash. Dong was the only Zerg left with a chance and he got raped hard. It was just one game, yes, but it wasn't even close.

Also, what strategy are you talking about? Flash won his game against Jaedong by denying Jaedong's third gas. If that is the strategy that you are talking about, show me couple more games from recent times when he won using the exact same strategy. I don't think out-micro, out-macro, out-play, and out-starsense count as strategy. This is like Iloveoov domination. It's just pure skill, there is no gimmicks, there is nothing you can do about it.

Embaressing JD was the worst thing flash could of done. He should of stopped macroing for a little while to make it seem closer.

Wow,super fanboy alert. He goes this build every time zerg 12 hatchs. barracks, cc, bunker at natural, then medics marines. Alot of turrets in natural, turrets surrounding outskirts of main with medic and marine protecting if he scans mutas. Then he goes for the infamous terran ball push while doing a good job of denying third. he sits on 2 bases for quite a while until he is sure he has map control and expands.

Flash did not make a mistake in not building turrets in main min line vs Hyun. He almost never does, because he feels he could intimidate the opponent from going into his main with turrets outside and marines inside. No zergs would want to see all those turrets on the outskirts and marines of the main then go in towards the main min line to find more turrets and get trapped between turrets and marine fire. Hyun watched Flash's replays and realized thats what Flash wanted him to think and called Flash's bluff. It was not that impressive to see a progamer survive that long in that situation either. You are macroing off of 2 almost mined out bases so it does not take that much APM to micro well vs a guy who is macroing of of 6 bases.

I'm not saying his BO and strategy is bad, if it works keep on doing it. But eventually the zergs will be practiced enough against Flash's strat. just like what happened to Bisu build.

But that is just the same shit that most Terran does against Zergs. That is no Bisu build. It has proven effective for ages and it will remain effective till the next Zerg revolutionist. Flash simply executes it better than anybody else. Whoever figures out how to counter that build will have a build named after him. And frankly, I don't see that happening. It is a pretty rock solid terran build. And no, 4pool is not a revolutionary new build. Even the Bisu build is not obsolete at this age. Protoss neither devised a new build nor did they returned to pre-Bisu age. They are simply using variations of the Bisu build. Corsair is still the bread and butter of PvZ.

Your second paragraph simply expanded on my argument. I said that Flash would learn a lesson from his defeat against Hyun. He simply wouldn't use the same shitty turret build again. Just stick with the turret placements that work. It's like Flash and 14CC. He learned his lesson.

Then he goes for the infamous terran ball push while doing a good job of denying third. he sits on 2 bases for quite a while until he is sure he has map control and expands.

Flash did not make a mistake in not building turrets in main min line vs Hyun. He almost never does, because he feels he could intimidate the opponent from going into his main with turrets outside and marines inside. No zergs would want to see all those turrets on the outskirts and marines of the main then go in towards the main min line to find more turrets and get trapped between turrets and marine fire. Hyun watched Flash's replays and realized thats what Flash wanted him to think and called Flash's bluff. It was not that impressive to see a progamer survive that long in that situation either. You are macroing off of 2 almost mined out bases so it does not take that much APM to micro well vs a guy who is macroing of of 6 bases.

I'm not saying his BO and strategy is bad, if it works keep on doing it. But eventually the zergs will be practiced enough against Flash's strat. just like what happened to Bisu build.


Omg. This is one of the dumbest posts I've ever read. Everything you wrote was garbage and retarded.

"You are macroing off of 2 almost mined out bases so it does not take that much APM to micro well vs a guy who is macroing of of 6 bases."

I just don't know what to say. I'm sitting here with my mouth wide open.
Lim Yo Hwan forever!
