I have my doubts. As Leta has proven recently, defeating Flash straight up is very much possible.
It would be insane if he actually manages to achieve 90% win rate...He did break 2400 ELO after all...and is still breaking it.

As much as I like Leta, as Stork said all of the 3 and 4-player maps (and in some matchups even the 2-player maps) have massive positional advantages and therefore players have to practice more than 1 strat per map, even if they are trained as snipers for the sole fact that they may get a disadvantageous position.

Flash has skills of a progamer that I aspire to have

i think it's very possible but not very likely. even if he has a 90% chance to win any match, it drops to 25% chance to win 13 straight. Still, I hope he does it, it would be more amazing (his rec is already amazing)

I think it is more likely to win straight 13 games in a row in the standard format than WL. Sniping seems much more powerful during WL when you don't know which map and which player you will end up playing. Additionally, there is no way one can prepare for all the matches at all the maps vs different races.

But still it seems very unlikely...

I think it's scary that Flash is playing at the *pro level*-- people who should be around his skill level. His performance is extremely dominating, and kind of shows how far he is ahead of everyone else in the world.

How can one person be so good at this game?

I like how everyone just swallowed the 13.


54-6 = 90%
60-6 = ~91%

Ya, I don't get how he can be that much better than everyone else who also spend literally (almost) all their time just practising and practising.

um maybe my math is wrong here but 10-1 is more than 90 percent 9-1 equals 90 percent that is 9 out of 10

16+17+9 = 42 ... plus the 12 wins = 54 ....... 54 and 6 = 90 percent
by my very very SIMPLE math it is 12 wins ... the reason we swallowed somewhere around 13 to be true is who would second guess 1st grade arithmetic ... its not like this is advanced calculus ... i like how you took the time to imply something about every reader of this thread without taking the time to make sure you were correct ,, about something so mundanely SIMPLE
the beauty of a move is not in its appearance but the thought behind it ... nimzovitch

its 13 wins dammit.
do your algebra.

(x-6) / x = .90
x = 60 games.
60 games minus the 6 losses = 54.

hahahaha epic
The probability of Kim Carrier getting all those predictions wrong is similar to the probability Flash loses a TvT. Kim Carrier MUST BE a genius. His only big mistake... STORK.

Wow, I had no idea Flash was doing this well. I think we need to replace that Oov pic that shows off his 78% win rate

There's an error on the first page, it says 16 games vZ, and then shows 16-1 record. If he is really 16-1 then it's 12 games, otherwise 13 games.
