in tvz, you need to guard your ramps with 2~3 lurkers, as flash has limited detection in the mid-game
maybe put some stop lurkers around

also, scout well so you know when to build drones and expand, or when to go for units...

seriously i've seen what the zerg had to be doing in a game vs flash in order to win, and i'm sure he could be beaten someday....

I agree kinda, I thought the zerg who recently played Flash opened very good with 2-3 lurks and then mutas right after. Too bad he failed.

A single period of dominance is not enough to consider someone a bonjwa. If that were the case, both (P)Bisu and (Z)Jaedong should have qualified by now.

Besides which, people were saying the same thing about Flash after he won Bacchus and not much came out of that. Let us wait and see if he actually wins another title before we continue this discussion.

Jaedong is at a severe disadvantage if he played Flash in a hypothetical MSL finals right now. With the MSL's map pool, he has no chance.

Neither Bisu nor Jaedong were ever as dominant as Flash currently is.

That's actually true. Flash is doing better in PL than Jaedong was, and while last season Jaedong was in a very similar position of being in the OSL semis and MSL ro8 split Bo5, the only, ONLY difference here is that when Jaedong was in both leagues like this, he was DOWN a game vs his MSL opponent (Canata) and Flash, on the other hand, happens to be up a game.

The real question is, how badly can Flash dominate Calm? If he can 3-1 him then he remains ahead of Jaedong in all technicality's sake. If he 3-0's him then he's definitively ahead. And obviously if he beats Best he atleast breaks even (Jaedong won 3-2, though it was a handily won 3-2 with losses only to canata's rushes)

It's funny because their tournaments are similar, too. Jaedong didn't have to play a protoss in OSL round of 8 last season either.

uhhhh, what? The period of time when Jaedong won his 2nd and 3rd OSLs? Taek-Bang era?

Flash's most recent domination hasn't even lasted a league yet.

Well you have to take into account the period. Syncing up this season with last season (Jaedong has been most successful this year so that's fair to say), Flash is slightly ahead. He has to CONTINUE to win though to beat Jaedong's crushing wins last season.

Amusingly, the only people with more dominant seasons than Jaedong were the Bonjwas. It'd be cute if Flash crushed that dominance.

While true that it hasn't been very long, it has been more intense than Jaedong/Bisu ever were. Flash is 90% since the start of October, and he hasn't been playing bad players either.

I absolutely LOVE Flash but please let's stop throwing out the b-word

He needs to win both leagues and not slump immediately afterward to even start being considered. He feels really strong right now but you have to establish that feeling where it's just "there's no way he loses this series" and you have to keep it for a long, long time.

If he wins OSL and gets to the MSL finals and dominates JD we might be able to start talking, and even then just barely. I need to see him trounce Bisu/Stork too....

Just because Flash plays in an era where there are another incredible gamers:

Bisu, Jaedong, Stork, etc..

doesn't mean he can't be considered one of the best ever. It's like Tennis. Federer is constantly winning tournaments because there's no one in the field to stop him. He's surely the greatest ever right? Or maybe not.. Nadal shows up.

Just because he has super strong competition doesn't make him any less impressive than savior for instance.
Never give up on something that you can't go a day without thinking about.

Pick Protoss, spawn cross positions, go 2 base arbiters.
