I can def. see him take em all. But I can also see him lose to JD.

Even if he does, I still think he will be the best/very very close to the best player for a long time ahead...

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 .


Man, Flash is way too good, you can't compare him to Hwasin imo. Flash is just smarter than everyone else, that's why he's so good. I really don't care what the statistics say about his TvZ, the guy has the best starcraft mind in the world right now, so I'd put him above Hwasin in every MU.
This is like when sAviOr was in his prime, you had to put the guy above everyone else in every MU, even ZvZ.

It is pretty cool that you still think that JD is the godly legend killer, you are a loyal fan my friend.. He has definitely been slipping a bit of late though.


Then show were his TvZ is better then Hwasins ?

I'd like to see Best vs Flash again, also Jangbi vs Flash, Stork vs Flash, Bisu vs Flash and finally Jaedong vs Flash. I guess he will win all the tournaments, but will put my vote only after the tournaments will be finished:-P

Take the maps into consideration. Check statistics of this PL-OSL-MSL season.
They are way too imbalanced for Zergs. You can`t mutalisk harass effective, the crucial 3rd expo is far away, and hard to defend.
JD is the best/one of the bests mechanically nowdays, a real monster. He beat Flash every single straight up game.
+ Show Spoiler +
GSI 1-2
MSL 1-2
OSL 3-1
Total 5-5

The wins of JD were straigh up games, compared to Flash`s wins were cheeses/metal play.
If JD can win on these maps, he is far more better than Flash. But can he beat the maps too? I don`t know.

Actually Jaedong had troubles beating Flash in standard games even when Jaedong was in his prime. If Jaedong can't pull his tvz shit together he will not even win vs hwasin.
And no, hwasins tvz isn't better than flashs.

Only reason Jaedong won vs flash on Loki in the Bo5 was coz he played like a fucking miracle, and now he isn't, not vs terran atleast.

how did he have troubles? once hive tech was out flash got demolished every game. ya he had fucking scary mid game armies but that was because he sacrificed tech for a shitload of mm and once defilers were out his 4 group mm army with 2 tanks and 2 vessels was pretty useless.

flash is the favorite but if jaedong happens to hit his old form (and a couple of recent losses to very good players does not mean that it is gone forever), he could very easily beat flash.


yeah, thats pretty much what i said.

and imo he was saved by the bell with those swarms. nice timing but flash could have pushed faster.. it was intense, not easy.
dont forget, flash has become better and better while jaedong hasnt. Thats gotta play some role...
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

Yes, this is true, but Colosseum is a widely opened map, where as a Terran you can get fast 3 gasses, + min only. The first push must be very strong with nearly a maxed army with upgs, because of the opened center.
The other maps don`t fit the metal play.
Please chek your pms.

I'd say 2/3, I don't know exactly which two, but winning 3 tournaments is very unlikely IMO, but you never know... It is Flash, the "wonderkid."

Luxury is gonna kick him out of OSL .... and in MSL there is plenty of force there so it would surpise me if he wins something at all ...
