Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

didnt say he wasnt good in standard play as he most obviously is. just said in standard games vs jaedong jaedong has outplayed him every time.

also, jaedong beat him in the only bo5 series they played 3-1, only losing to mech on katrina. flash beat him with a sunken break and mech 2-1 (losing a straight up game) in osl and won vs him in the gsi 2-1 all 3 games being cheese from one side or another.


Idra you obviously know and see more about the game than I do but I'm surprised to see you say this. After watching players like Mind and Hwasin systematically take down (demolish) Jaedong in recent games on the current map pool, I was of the opinion that Flash would be able to do it even more easily. I don't think there's anything that Mind or Hwasin do better than Flash right now (that's just my opinion of course). Are there things you've seen in Flash's (or Jaedong's/Mind's/Hwasin's) play that would lead you to think otherwise?

Let me explain it to you actually Hwasin has a better TvZ then Flash and Mind's is a little bit weaker but almost the same , 2nd those were Bo1 PL game in Bo5 JD usually kills . The fact that Hwasin beat JD in one game doesn't mean that Flash can too maybe he can maybe he can't but that is Bo1. Now if i may have your attention in Bo5 Hwasin has more of a chance beating JD then Flash that fact is backed up with Flash's non standard play vs him in both OSL and MSL and GSI , which tells that he is not confidant faseing JD on some map and if he doesn't have a plan he will lose - MSL , back then don't know how much he is improved now . Hwasin on the other hand was the best TvZ in 2007 and he is not scared of JD's late game skills . So if JD kills Hwasin in the next round he will most likely demolish Flash too , anyway after 1 week we will see if JD is the GOD OF DESTRUCTION and the legend killer .

It's too bad there's not an option to vote for "I fucking hope not."
That's not awful writing, DAMMIT. It's perfectly sensical english construction.

he has yet to prove he can beat jaedong in a standard game. he beat him in 2 series but his wins were mmf sunken breaks, mech, and baekmagoji. jaedong won all of the biotankvessel vs muta ling lurk into defiler games, won them pretty easily for the most part.

flash is better now than he was and jaedong seems a bit worse, but id still say jaedong is a favorite given current maps that favor standard play a bit more.

Yo have quite a point, however Jaedong is slumping and Flash getting better and better... And yeah, the maps encourage more standard play, however it doesn't mean that Flash will be forced into standard play. To be honest I think Colosseum is encouraging Wraith TvZ a little, already seen 2 games like that (one of which was from Flash, in addition to his wraith-heavy tvt on that map vs. DarkElf in PL). Especially with the ling-proof wallability of the map. That's nearly impossible to do on Othello though... other maps Wuthering can be made with lingproof walls... but it's very open and hydras will have an easy chance vs. wraiths. Then again, as a rather shitty player I might just be talking out of my ass altogether.

Why does everyone think BeSt has a shot at beating Flash in a BoX series?

Besides beating Flash in PL once when Flash didn't scout (good play by best though), BeSt has only beat the following terrans: NaDa, go.go, and UpMagic. And lost to Mind. Not exactly the craziest roster of opponents.

because best is insanely good and on a hot streak? and the maps are good for pvt. andromeda and troy at least in osl, i forget the rest of the map pool.
no ones calling best the favorite, but to say he doesnt have a shot is idiotic.


BTW how is it going in korea?

Getting your ass kicked?

nope i 20-0'd everyone on the team.


... Can you pull that off in Courage League?

Or will you choke?

i hate all the idra haters blegh
why do people have to go out of their way to talk shit about him

He will win all of thems!
I think he is fully capable if he plays the way he has been.

I chose OSL and Intel, but I don' t think so now. Best should take OSL, Free takes MSL (really hoping!), and Flash can take home intel

I just don't see him losing. Right now, he's looking even better than sAviOr in his prime since he doesn't have a weak matchup. I can't think of anyone except MAYBE Jaedong who can take him down.

Let's put it this way, if flash has 80% chance of winning each league, the chance of him winning them all would be ~50%, and against the likes of Jaedong and Best (+ more), Flash albeit being the favorite, cannot claim an 80% chance of victory. This is not to mention the other players he has to beat as well.

Flash isnt better than the Maestro in his prime. He has terran-favored maps this season and only one OSL win, lets not get ahead of ourself. Hes dominant but lets see how long it lasts.

Plus:
Heavily slumping 1/8th fraction-of-himself complete crap sAviOr still went 3-4 with him in Skins.
