Someday I'm going to write an article about why Flash/Bisu/Jaedong/Stork cannot be bonjwa.

Not because they don't have the ability to
Not because their anti-fans won't let them
But because nobody really understands when to use this word.

Flash seems unstoppable this season. My question to you guys is:

What advice would you give to the current progamers on what they need to DO/CHANGE in order to beat Flash? I'm personally most interested in TvZ but pick whatever matchup you wanna talk about.

Cheesy builds seem to be the natural way to surprise a superior opponent or compensate for an inferior mid/late game. But Flash seems SO on top of opponents' cheese with his game sense that he always can force a mid/late game where few can match him. Should Flash opponents try even cheesier builds and all-ins to try to win early and avoid long drawn out matches? Do you think simply standard play with better mechanics can beat Flash? Are there unit combos /builds that might force Flash to play him less comfortable builds (he seems so comfortable with his M&M right now)?

Jump on him while he is not expectng it break all of his fingers and toes and pocke his eyes out after shoot him in the knee and maybe you will have a chance to beat him

well if he's playing TvP i would guess that the toss player would have to do some weird pushes and harrassment before flash gets out his usual timing push...
sKyHigh? him? don't worry about it. (–_–)

hide a probe in base, manner pylon to mess up his turret placement

Seriously, just be a progamer who plays protoss. His TvP is only 58% in 09 and he's lost to BackHo, Shuttle, and Much, not to mention he's only 5-12 vs dragons this year.

As a Terran. Not possible. TvT is the most forgiving of matchups. In the end, the stronger players with the stronger mechanics and game sense wins. There is no Terran in existence that can match Flash in pure ability.

As a Zerg. Not possible. Have you seen Flash's TvZ? Every single last one of them were one sided rapes. In the two games that he lost, he screwed himself up due to incorrect turret placements, something that he pointed out himself.

The only possibility left is Protoss. PvT seems to favor P. As Flash has stated in his interview, he has lost his touch on TvP due to the lack of practice. But to be honest, the way that Flash is playing right now, I think only Stork, Bisu, Movie and Best are capable of taking games off Flash, and perhaps only Stork, the greatest PvT, is capable of defeating Flash in a BO5.

Right now, Flash is in Bonjwa mode. Very scary. If he overcomes Best, his chance of seizing double title is well in his favor.

Flash's turret didn't start in time.

Stop. Just stop.

Why? Did you even read what Flash and Zero said? LOL, BOTH of them. Not just Flash, BOTH.

Lmao.

Stop. Just stop.

They said the glitching scvs made the muta harass more effective. It didn't end the game :/

Flash gets alot better as the game goes along so I think the way to beat him is to go massive. Incredibly fast pressure.
