Thanks.

Kwanro thumbs down...the map where Flash has had 2 of his only 3 losses to Zerg on this season? What?

I was going to say 'probably because of the length to ling all-in' as a joke, but then I remembered that Odd-Eye is even worse for that. Maybe it goes along with his grand plan to force Flash to practice more maps? Match Point and Fighting Spirit are the only two MSL maps used for Proleague, and Fighting Spirit is also in the OSL so Flash has plenty of practice on it already.

Yeah, its really beyond me why Kwanro didn't thumbsdown Ultimatum or Odd-Eye, especially Ultimatum considering the difficulty in obtaining a third gas (unless he gets fast drop...>.>) I guess I can't question the scheming behind Kwanro's master plan.

Both series should be interesting. Glad that Kwanro thumbed down Match Point

Also MSL managed to arrange the pairing pretty well this season. Jaedong and Flash in the semis paired with Kal and Kwanro respectivel. That should be epic.

Thanks for the translation Smix!

Nice, even more rape since Flash can remove one of the most imba zerg maps ever

1/4 chance of a final with mindblowing potential
1/4 chance of a one sided rape TvP
1/4 chance of a typical MSL final with mid-tier player vs mid-tier player
1/4 chance of a ZvZ

I like Kwanro more than Flash but for the sake of epicness, I'm hoping for a JvF.
And hopefully it doesn't disappoint if it happens.

Thank you for the translations!

Kwanro tends to solve any map problems with speedlings.

Why would flash thumb down fighting spirit? Can't believe this Grrr
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

Kwanro wants to win straight up without imba anti-Flash map.

Or so he wants to create the grand illusion of it.

Kal vs Flash will not be rape. Kal's PvT is nothing to laugh at.

and if it really comes to Kal vs Kwanro, except Kal to completely demolish Kwanro.


unless i have this all wrong, and you meant:

Jaedong vs Kal
Kal > Flash
Flash vs Kwanro

Holy Hell those are bad maps for zerg. The best one is at 50% ZvT... lol. Flash imbalance + map imbalance = win? Two negatives = a positive from what I recall.

Maybe you meant ZvP? Because none of the maps are even 50% ZvT.

It's worth mentioning that Flash is heavily skewing the TvZ balance numbers on some maps.

For example, Fighting Spirit. Looking at the stats, it's 12-9 TvZ. Why would Flash thumb it down?

Because when you remove Flash's games, it becomes 8-9 TvZ.

....You can also remove Jaedong's games and the map favors Terran again.
