Accomplishing nothing for two years and being pain free is better than enduring some pain while becoming one of the greatest ever?

tbh this started with disciple's rants which seemed to have unofficially condoned this line of posts in here due to him being a red. Even as a red though that rant was over the line and inappropriate. He said Flash should lie and say "shit is ok" when asked about his wrists, well its not and his fans are actually worried and want to be updated about his condition. You can bet that if it were Bisu that developed symptoms or an illness that could threaten his career disciple and all the other Bisu fans would want every update possible, and they wouldn't appreciate people going into Bisu interview threads saying "Bisu should just stfu already and just say he's ok, stop hiding behind those injuries".

Flash's wrist is visibly wrong, it is not a faked illness. It is extremely serious, and it matters to his fans. For all the Flash haters that followed after disciple, you guys hate flash? great, you don't need to shit all over this thread. He didn't say anything BM in his interview. He has never, not once excused his losses on his wrists. I don't even know where these latest arguments come from, like him being bm because he smiles when he loses or that flash is dumb for praising his friends JD and Zero..

When one of the leading stars in any sport has a serious illness/condition, he will get asked about it, and often because its important. He shouldn't have to lie about it so his antifans can be happier. I was actually dumbfounded by the level of some of the comments in this thread.

i'd hate to see flash be turned into a what if story if his wrists get to a point where he is not able to compete anymore. he really should take a long break and let his wrists relieve the stress hes been putting on them. better that he can have a chance to continue his career than push himself for just one more season and be forced to call it quits. (unless hes been planning to go back to school and change his life path or something or the other)

Q 上一场半决赛jaedong出局你是否遗憾
Q in the first semifinal group Jaedong lost, do you regret that?
A 总觉得很不好受。我无法用语言表达。我希望在决赛中遇到的宿敌jaedong桑苏输
了，感觉就像我自己输掉一样不好受。jaedong桑苏是优秀的选手，我觉得他总有一
天能重新打进决赛。
A I feel a bit uncomfortable with it. I can't really express it with words.
The Jaedong-hyun that I wished to meet in the finals has lost, the feeling
is just as bad as if I had lost personally. Jaedong-hyun is an excellent
progamer, I believe that one day he will definately make the finals again.

I just went to fomos.kr to read their version of the same interview and this how they translated Flash's response:

"They can’t fix it at the hospital, they told me it shouldn’t bother me too much. I’ve been going to the oriental medical clinic, but I don’t think it’s helping LOL. I practice under a flexible schedule because of my hands, I rest when I need to. During the stove league I am planning on getting ample rest."

I'm not sure what the 'stove league' is? any ideas?

I totally expected every single flash fan to embrace my point of view

look, on a more serious note. I just re-read all my rants from yesterday. At no point of them I havent said anything offensive or insulted Flash as a person or as a player in any way. Its distasteful to make jokes about one's health issues and at no point in my posts I said he is faking, or made fun of his condition (aside from the dumbledore photoshop which had to be made).

My point is that Flash is selling intentionally or not the whole situation bad imho. Just because he a honest kid telling the truth he shared his concerns about his health, a topic which is related to everyone in the scene, not only his fans. Maybe he does put inhuman effort to be on top of his game given the situation, but adding so much drama to his condition, and constantly pointing out he feels handicapped in his practice time or ingame because of this, makes his competitors look really weak, given his ever dominant record, despite the fact he dropped from the starleagues last season. Maybe he is not doing that by intention but thats the by product of his statements. And given the fact Flash became really cocky in the recent seasons (Saying he cant possibly be beaten in MSL, or when asked what he thinks about the other 7 MSL champions in the group selection he replied with "Huh?") I just dont like the fact he is talking so much about it, making all his fans worry about his condition when he is hands down the best player in the world and his play isnt really showing any signs of a health problem.

Someone said if it was bisu, I would've reacted in the same way. Well 2 years ago Bisu constantly complained about map balance, despite being a beast in PL. Anti-fans made fun of all his complains. Ofc both issues are of a completely different nature, but just like in the case with Bisu, I had enough of flash QQing about his wrist after 3-0ing his opponents.

In any case I do wish his wrist heals as fast as possible so that his fans are not as concerned about his health and so he could focus completely on the game.

I understand the issue is quite sensitive for everyone, especially for his fans who got so easily offended by my controversial posts. Ppl overracted to my rant and it all became quite emotional and out of line. I do apologize for sparking such a flame fest. But I do stand by my words and even thou the way I worded myself was provocative some of the reactions I got were premature as well. Especially about me abusing my status here.

I will make it up for you all by making some wonderful gfx for the MSL finals, which would make even the heart of flash himself warm

Flash - I really practiced until I was going to go crazy, so my arm hurts a lot right now. But every time I thought of the fans and remembered how I was knocked out early in the last tournament. I really practiced like my arm was going to break, and I'll practice even harder for the finals.

- Does your arm pain have anything to do with your dropping out of both leagues?
▲ No, that’s not true. Though it had been hurting for a while, right now it’s almost a relief I only have proleague to practice for. I’ll work on taking care of my health so I can show a better side of myself.
