His prior arm injury from 2011 where he required surgery has started to act up again.
This is also the reason why he didn't participate in KSL2 (contrary to other rumours).

Source: http://www.dailyesports.com/view.php?ud=2018122010121782133cf949c6b9_27

As such, wildcard matches between Sharp vs Rain and Action vs Mini were played out to determine the replacements for Flash and Shuttle (who has enlisted in the military).

+ Show Spoiler [Results] +
Sharp 3 > 2 Rain
Mini 3 > 2 Action

Very likely. The price we pay, I guess.

Flash being a merciful deity letting other people have a chance to win.

In all seriousness I hope he can recover and come back for next season.

Action vs Mini game 4 was pretty fun for anyone looking for a VOD

although I'm not sure how the loser lost in the end,

Sad to see. I wonder if this is a sign of him eventually leaving for his impending military enlistment. Just hope he doesn't disappear as fast as Shuttle did.
