And the winner is...


Flash!
It was easier than I expected.
[image loading]



- You began the Ro16 with a good result.
▲ First of all, I'm very happy. I'm now in the Ro8, so if I just win another match, I will have a great chance of representing my country at WCG. I'll work hard to win.

- How'd you feel about the match?
▲ Actually I just played at the level I play in practice, so the win was easier than expected. This match also confirms that I can still play TvT.

- Did you rest after the SPL Grand Finals?
▲ Since my individual league matches are still continuing, I didn't rest, but have practiced the whole time. I'm still in a mindset where I can practice hard without rest and still be fairly happy, so I'm not worried.

- You're about to play both MSL and OSL matches.
▲ The more matches I have, the happier I am. You don't even know how happy I was to win the SPL Grand Finals. Now I can be at ease and focus on the individual leagues -- it's great.

- Your opponents are ForGG and Hiya, respectively.
▲ Actually, when playing matches every day, playing three days in a row of TvT pressures me the most. I'm afraid my strategies will be revealed, so I've prepared a bit to prevent that; it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

- It's very likely that you'll play Fantasy in WCG.
▲ I don't really mind if either Fantasy hyung or Zero hyung advance. But before the games began, Fantasy hyung and I agreed that we'd go to LA together, but regrettably that's probably not possible anymore. Still, I hope that between Fantasy hyung and I, at least one of us can go to LA.

- What are your thoughts on WCG?
▲ I've already mentioned the SPL Grand Finals results, so winning the WCG Korea is the last title I can win this year. Therefore, I'll definitely win, and try to become the best (T/N: "perfect") progamer while showing no weaknesses.

Flash shows that he can dominate TvTs.

I thought Leta was going to take game 1 though o.o

Game 1 was a typical example of FvT where Flash gets an early disadvantage.

Game 2 was a typical example of FvT where Flash gets an early advantage.

Thanks for translating!

Great show by Flash yesterday. Especially game 2 was utter domination. Leta got just outplayed even though he got the BO advantage and yet Flash nullified it without any problem whatsoever.

Actually, I think he was at a BO disadvantage in both games, more so in game 2. It didn't take long for him to really turn the tables in that game and dominate.

Must see these vods! I'm betting Game 1 will look similar to Bisu vs Pure (early disadvantage for Bisu but he comes back)

I was really hoping to see Leta take this game, but I still enjoy watching Flash play so I'm happy with this outcome anyway. Thanks for the translation!

Flash had a really fucking nice timing attack with BC's. First he lays out the path with wraiths, kills 1-2 BC's, and finds out how far they are from having Yamato, then attacks with his own BC's before Leta's have the energy to Yamato.

Missed the second game

Neither game was particularly one-sided. If Leta had had just a bit more luck, it could have been 2-0 the other way. I'm disappointed, but Flash played well and deserved to win.

Oh man I love Flash. Game 1 was like "oh damn i think he's gonna lose" into "wow, how did Leta lose that?"

and game 2 was just complete and utter dominance by Flash, while showing great wraith usage!

game 1 perhaps--I only saw the end though--but the luck, if any, was on leta's side game 2.

I expected Leta would be able to take at least one game off Flash.

How can you see if the BCs have energy?

Game 1:
Flash had 4 SCVs.
Flash won.

Game 2:
Flash still had 4 SCVs.
Look, Leta did too.
Flash won.

remembering the old thread:
how do you know that bisu will win the game: His first dt arrives
how do you know that jaedong will win the game: He is switching to death stare mode
how do you know that flash will win the game: He enters the game
All what KT currently needs is a Zerg and a second Terran

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.
