I would say it's likely.

Also, bad luck for Stats. Would have loved to see him destroying Hwasin ><

You can't honestly be advocating that Best is the favorite right?

I realize that Flash's TvP is far weaker than his other two matchups but it's a Bo5...and it's Flash... Best has never played a Bo5 against Flash so his carrerr win rate vs the guy is pretty much irrelevant.

Since when is Flash such a bo5 monster? Best got to a finals before too you know, hes got experience in Bo5s too.

I'd love to see Flash take his series over BeSt, but what evidence do you have that Flash is the favorite? Everything seems to be pointing to BeSt being the favorite.

- BeSt has a perfect record against Flash.
- BeSt has won his last 8 PvTs in a row.
- Flash's TvP is not up to par with his TvT and TvZ from what we've seen.

I realize mind-games come into play more in Bo5 matches, but it doesn't change the mechanics of the game they're playing.

I'm a huge Flash fan and Flash is really crazy right now in TvZ and TvT. But I just got the feeling that Best will win, or at LEAST be very close.

Flash still has a higher ELO in that matchup than Best.

Flash may be in a TINY bit of a rut with his TvP, but it's not like he's been losing to the Rock or anything. He's just lost some tough games against good PvTers the last few months. He hasn't played it enough to get a very good idea of what he's at right now.

Of course Best is the favorite. Check the games they played against each other (one not too far ago) and their last vT and vP. If Flash defeats him then he deserves the whole thing for sure xd

ELO doesn't mean much lmao.

And exactly, we don't have a very good idea of what he's capable of in TvP, which is why many people consider the MU to be at least 50-50 for BeSt.

Best beat Flash straight-up very convincingly a short while ago. I dont see how its absurd to think of him as a small favorite, especially given the state of current TvP in general

I think its absurd to call either of them a favorite. Best has been mediocre all year except just recently, consistency is always a massive question mark when someone is coming out of a slump. Always. Flash hasnt played many tvp's, and has openly admitted hes having worse results because hes changing his style. And yet, hes been beasting else where and I'd think its fair that there would be some transference. Point is, looking at both of them we can only discern that the games will be of a high quality, realistically we cant call either of them a favorite without taking a leap of faith in one of their plays.

I just read part of this thread, and I can't believe people complained about BeSt vs Canata. That game was amazing. I loved it.
