EPTCurrently, NaDa is still probably greater overall, but Flash has so much time, he could become a Schumacher of BW and make the whole scene boring to level that people are only interested in the second place. I think he should, even if I'm not a fan of his (or Schumacher's).
Is Flash really invincible? - Page 5

Flash has done a great job in BW vs great players, so he is great too. I don't appreciate his style much, I wish he could pull off convincing wins with many more different styles, but he won them all. Name one style that Flash hasn't won with, nay, dominated with. | ||

:p Flash used to play zerg before switching to terran so I'm sure he has! But I'm sure you understood what I meant by style. | ||

not funny And to all the people who has Flash is boring because he plays only 1 style, have you watched any Savior games? 3 hatch muta -> fast defiler...booooooooooooooooooooooring. Any Oov games? FE into macro bot -> boooooooooring. Any Boxer games? 80% of the time he does all-ins. Booooooooooring. At least Nada is had more variety, only he can be bonjwa seems like it. | ||

The only real debate concerns the b-word, and this to me is already settled. No matter what happens from here, Flash is bonjwa. Nothing can take away his utter dominance this year, especially considering he basically manhandled the only other player who could lay any claim to the bonjwa title themselves. I think in Jaedong's case, we need more data. To his fans, he is bonjwa already...but a definitive answer will come from how he does next year. | ||

Skyhigh is 3-1 vs Flash, with 2 wins in a row, including a impressively flawless 50+ minute macro battle. It's too early to tell Snow's potential, but he's one of the most promising young players around, and I've never seen Flash get owned as hard as he did against Snow on Fighting Spirit. | ||

But there are fans out there that expect different play styles that are not available to a terran player, at least not in their immediate first order. In second order of course there are a number of common categories (early all-in aggression, timing pushes, map splitting, defensive play, etc.). Some people enjoy the first order differences; there is nothing Flash can do to make them appreciate his play. | ||

Flash can still be fooled, just remember his game against Snow at PL, where he did fake timing attack into double expand. I for one, blame JDs "average" understading of ZvT by his lack of "quality" terran friends, he should get closer with fantasy and light, although i guess it will never happen with fantasy cause he cheesed him at PL final last year. | ||
