I'm really liking Calm's style. I think this season (and next Starleague season) he'll get a chance to show what he's made of. Same goes for Effort.

Zerg is looking pretty cool these days, with JD, Effort, Calm, Zero all playing solid, and guys like Yarnc, by.hero, the corpse formerly known as Luxury, and July all capable of taking a game from almost anyone.

As for people talking Fantasy vs Flash - let's give it a rest for now. Fantasy is better than Flash in Starleagues (which is what really counts) at the moment. In fairness to Flash, he will continue to have the highest winning percentage out of all Terrans for a long, long time. Flash is younger right now than JD was when he even won his first Starleague, so to say he's done for is a bit overly dramatic, to say the least.

Awesome highlights of Calm vs. Mind. Sick, aggressive muta micro just tore apart Mind's marines when they were poorly positioned in a line next to his tanks.

Also, thanks for highlighting in your post where to start watching in YouTube. I hate going through the whole VOD to get to the "good part".

I'm with you. His play has been unconventional and clever lately, and in the past year he has slowly gone from obscurity to stardom.

Calm's been choking since the dawn of time, maybe not as bad as midas, but pretty damn bad. He has skills, and sometimes kicks ass in PL, but really cant step it up in SL's

Lol comparison for past few months I.E since proleague started back up.

Fantasy TvP 11-2 (Losses to Pure and Bisu)
Flash TvP 12-5 (Losses to Shuttle (in a bo3), Stork, Kal, Jangbi, and Backho)

Fantasy TvZ (note he barely plays it) 6-5 (3x Loses to Big Dong, Hogil, and Calm
Flash TvZ 8-6 ( other than the 4 recent loses (JD, Yarnc, Kwanro, Calm) the other 2 were vs effort on HBR and Oversky on Battle Royale lol)

Flash TvT 11-2 (Currently on 10 game streak) Loses to Hiya and Skyhigh.
Fantasy TvT 6-3 ( Loses to Flash, Lomo, and Skyhigh)

In summary, Flash hasnt beaten a good protoss in quite awhile and has lost to every dragon hes played recently. Fantasy's TvZ record is definitely not strong enough to make a case over Flash, neither is his TvT.

In short I could careless about what one arbitrarily thinks is a S-class player, but looking at the facts you cant make a case for Fantasy being better at Flash other than at TvP, which is by far Fantasy's best MU, and the matchup he plays the most, clearly there is a reason why SKT1 sends him out hoping to get a match vs Toss. So if Flash isnt S-Class then no terran is.

Also about Jaedong being anti cheeseble, Light just "cheesed" him, and Skyhigh makes a fool out him with his cheeses,(yes I know JD beats him straight up), the last cheese that was thwarted by JD that I can recall was vs jjonga which I remember jjonga just not following up properly, though Id have to rewatch to be sure. But If you wanna talk anti cheese Zero, recently would be a better example stopping multiple cheeses from gogo and Skyhigh.



Zero gets cheesed in ZvZ all the time. :p

At best, I would say that Calm is where Effort was maybe 6 months ago. He still needs some time in the forge, some tempering before he can start really doing things in the individuals.
So you know, cats are interesting. They are kind of like girls. If they come up and talk to you, it's great. But if you try to talk to them, it doesn't always go so well. - Shigeru Miyamoto

Flash is the current king of TvT. But he's only a cut above the other best TvT players... not enough that they can't catch up. Clearly S-class.

In both non-mirrors, he loses almost every game he plays against players who're powerful in the matchup, and wins almost every game against players who aren't. This is (to me) a form of A-class play.

I'd allow an S-class player one weak matchup, but not two. By his performance over the past few months, Flash is no longer S-class.


That's bs man.. would you consider fantasy to be S-class?

fantasy TvP is S-class, everyone agrees, no questions asked

what about his TvZ? No.
what about his TvT? maybe.

So by your reasoning, 1 S-class matchup, and 2 A-class matchups means that the player is A-class, not S-class?

Dumb people don't know that they're dumb.

Calm was always known for using weird builds. The thing is, he just isn't at the level where Jaedong and Effort are at. Not to mention, if Calm meets Jaedong or Effort he will get massacred.


Calm can beat Effort probably, JD is the pillar of ZvZ, everyone else is fallible. Upper Lvl ZvZers like Effort,Zero, Calm can all beat each other, Its pretty hard to call out a favorite.

Calm hasn't established himself as a upper-level ZvZ. ZerO is at Effort's level, but not all the time.

I actually think Calm is a really strong player, on par with Effort possibly. He just hasn't his streak like Effort yet but I think he will. But Fantasy or JD will stop Calm from this MSL for sure.

Any zerg that rules in ZvT and is good at ZvZ will easily become a monster in ZvP because the MU is easier than the other two.
