This just makes me love Flash even more! He's being so mature about the whole situation. Hearing what he says about those refs though makes me sick. It makes you wonder, had they just formally come out and apologized it may have helped his mental state some at the time and made for a better game 4. Ah well, there's always the next season. Flash fighting!

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.

At the finals, I have expected everything except a game decision done by the Kespa refs. When they decided that Jaedong won the match, I knew deep down inside I will lose the finals. Any progamer in my shoes would've lost the whole thing too after the decision.

what a weak-ass, defeatist attitude :/

Totally agree. I feel he keeps getting knocked off the horse more times than he deserves though. Love to see him keep fighting! Go flash!

Actually I dont like this interview at all, yeah maybe Flash got owned by Kespa but he is insulting Jaedong.

He is saying:
1) I lost cus I didnt have a heater
2) I won like every normal game
3) Kespa owned me
4) I dont want to play so I lost

So he is saying that Jaedong only won by externals things and I think that Jaedong won because he was more prepared that Flash, its a shame that everything went like that but he just need to say: "Hey Kespa owned me in game 3" but not give escuse for the rest of the games.


It sounded more like "I know Jaedong is good and he beat me, but I really wish it had happened under better circumstances if it had to happen."

Which I'm pretty sure Jaedong would agree with.

Flash seems like he handled it way better than most people would have.

It's such a shame it had to happen like that.

Kespa seems like even bigger assholes after reading this. Can't wait for SC2 to get rid of them.

Thanks for the interview Hoon. I'm very surprised to learn that there wasn't adequate heating in the booth, that's just really sad (but I guess JD played worse than he could have too?)

Taking this unfortunate loss as an unprecedented and unique experience is definitely a great way of looking at it, all the best to Flash.

Glad Flash won over JD last night ^^

<3 Flash.

He was defeated in Game3 though - I cant belive people even disagree with this.


If Flash says he had a decent chance, he had a decent chance and that's the end of it.

Flash is perhaps more biased than most. He's also pissed off with them so even if he knows they made the right call he'd be unlikely to absolve them.
Flash's opinion on someone else's game would be invaluable but on his own game he's hardly impartial. Just for reference, Fantasy said that the refs made the right call.

or MAYBE
just MAYBE
given that you dont even know anything about protoss you arent in a position to pass judgement on a tvz.

While I think Flash handled the situation rather well from a media perspective, I think his attitude in game 4 was pretty poor. Sure, you can be emotionally drained and whatnot, but that's not the heart of a champion. Gotta struggle through everything until victory. With the way Flash was playing, he DEFINITELY could have won, yet it seemed as if he just gave up in game 4. This interview pretty much proves it as well. You ain't gonna win with a mindset of "I can't win anymore". No matter the situation, just gotta get through it.

If what Flash is saying about the referees is accurate, it sure vindicates KT to some extent.

I think everyone that is saying "flash should be a champion and not get bogged down from game 3!" is being a little harsh. Losing a tough game on your advantaged map is hard enough to deal with going into game 4, but having a game not even complete, having kespa refs basically lie to your face, and having your coaching staff and dad going berzerk will all put such an enormous strain on your mind and play that playing your best will basically be impossible.

Also I think people are underestimating JD when they said flash shouldve been able to just win game 4 and quit being a baby. JD was playing amazingly, so even the slightest mentally fucked flash would have been extremely difficult for flash to win on FS.

can't believe flash didn't have a heater!!!

This makes me think he was prepared to win on that map*3rd match*, and didnt care to lose the 4th game so he could then go onto the last map. Perhaps the 4th map wasnt his best map

WOW! That sucks about the refs thing. But i like what his coach said to him. Basically Flash has great experience now that no other player has had and that is going to help him in the long run... Glad to see 2 guys can be really cool with each other yet still play like they want to murder each other

Great interview

Wasn't there this one tennis match where one player was losing and then they had to stop the game because of rain and then he came back and won the match?
I think noone doubts Flash's skill, it's more about the break & decision. kespa again not giving much of a fuck and probably his dad / coaching staff going apeshit was totaly unnecessary for his concentration in a high pressure final.

Plus his enemy was jdong. Sometimes they fight on such a different level where every advantage is a huge advantage. He probably felt like he had to run up mount everest after the break.

But i like his attitude. He's ready to move on and win more. Which just goes to show how much everything has changed. It's not about one title anymore, it's about titles & consistency.
