Flash vs Rain is unpredictable to the point that it might be a 3-0 either way.
This is my signature. I love that I can have a signature here. I haven't had a signature since like 2008. It reminds me of the old internet. I wish I knew what to put here though.

Snow vs Flash rematch would be epic. Either way whoever wins would be a good plot line. Snow winning on non-imba maps or Flash winning a 4 gold medal to break the curse. And Flash having real shoulder problems could make the series unusually close. I think his shoulder is worse than the last time he lost to Snow albeit on Pesagi maps.

I wonder if FlaSh can overcome the curse of not having more than 3 championships per tournament. None of pros who considered bonjwa, who won golden mouse/badge went to winning 4th title. Maybe God can break another record this time before he leaves?

Not sure it's really a curse, maybe he just gets bored of winning and doesn't train as hard after winning 3

Are there sponmatch stats for tripod and multiverse? multiverse might be OK for T, but tripod seems P favored, no? Surprisingly no TvP has been played on tripod so far this entire ASL.

It clearly shows the map order for the semifinals which have not been played yet.

I’d bet money that no other player in the world would rather face Flash instead of Rain in a Bo5 Finals.

This is Flash’s last tournament. This is gonna be a mounumetus change for the scene, and a real end of an era. Without the big names of the Kespa days still dominating, we are entering the new era... the afreeca era

I only ask for a non PvP finals because Rain would wreck Snow. Any other combination seems better on paper.

FlaSh needs to loose, preferably to SnOw (2nd time ouch!) so he can consider playing another one. If he wins he will retire 100%.

What’s so daunting about multiverse that a second Protoss has vetoed it rather than tripod?
Fuck KeSPA.

Ugh, this feels like it’s heading to an underwhelming Flash v Hero (in this case Action) type finals again.

I’m not fussed re Flash v Rain but really hope Snow wins to give the finals a bit more punch. Action is a good player but I feel he has benefitted a bit from a soft(ish) bracket.

[The Ro4 is classically referred to as the "finals before the finals"]

I don't think that's very common, is it?
