A strong protoss playing standart will beat him of course . If you are zerg you have to play perfect if you are a terran BBS and hope you scout him and Flash doesn't scout you ...

And people saying that Flash's streak of domimants is better then Jaedong's that is not true by a mile . Jaedong's dominant streak started around winners league last season , almost winning it by himself and at the same time winning OSL against fantasy . He then continued to dominate PL next round up until the finals and was also in the MSL semis and won his second consecutive OSL at the same time .

Flash i will give him credit last season he was toe to toe with Jaedong and at some point doing even better then him up until he droped the leagues and his team sadly didn't make it through the PL's final stages . While i do agree that Flash when he plays at his top he looks more unbeatable then Jaedong , but JD seems to carry the momentum a long way even when his streak of dominance seem's to be gone he isn't completely off the map and wins a league . If Flash can keep it up and win both leagues he would probably surpass Jaedong's streak of dominance .

That's why i think it is to early to compare their dominance and let Flash win at least the OSL which will happen unless Movie / Shine pull some kind of a miracle .

hidden expos, this is the answer.
atleast thats what jeadong and best tried after stork was successfull with it.


Well Jaedong was the first to win against him with a hidden expo thought on rush hour 3 .
Hidden expo is not really the answer . Flash already showed it against Best . Maybe it will get you a couple of wins , but Flash is to good of a player to fall for it twise . Like on iccup at low levels with my experience - protoss terrans and even in ZvZ players seem to go for the hidden expanion , banking on their expo not geting scouted and this kind of play pisses me the most , because why bother making an expansion if you don't have the units to defend it or you will not have them in a couple of minutes it is the same as cheesing to get an advantage .

But that doesn't work! See Flash vs Iris in the GOM S3 grand-finals, where Iris cheesed all 4 games and somehow, Flash scouted each cheese almost instantly.

The thing is to kill Flash's scv as fast as possible.

Bisu/JD/Flash are monsters because they keep scouting. Information is the key to win.

Send some goons at him. + Show Spoiler +
Big goons, with baseball bats. Make sure all his fingers are broken.

Bring back god's garden into the map pool. Hopefully he won't find a way to overturn that imbalance.

Start the game, unplug your keyboard, go to his booth and smash him over and over.

One Jaedong took his keyboard
and handed flash 40 whacks,
When he saw what he had done,
He gave the boothgirl 41.

Fake spire - go lurker then rush hive? I think that might work if you manage to get his army contained.

ah yes, thats what drone did against me in tsl ladder, really smart build and it might work actually


yeah that's also how mondragon beat sea[shield], who arguably has the 2nd best TvZ in the world atm. Aint gonna work forever though..

Flash's last three TvZ losses, including that game, were mainly due to slipups in his muta defense (or, if you will, very sharp muta play by his opponents). Hyun also took a ninja expo.

So you think the only way Flash will lose this season is if he beats himself or makes mistakes?

I predict that if he makes no mistakes, he will win.

That pretty much applies to any player. It's not possible to lose without making mistakes unless it's just a complete build order win (in which case the mistake was choosing the wrong build).
