Flash has already stated hes focusing more on the OSL so I think he won't win against BeSt at least in this game. I don't know about next week after hes had time to practice.
Hope is the first step on the road to dissapointment

The way MSL does their groups means Flash and Jaedong will not meet until the finals.

Come on, just because Flash's TvP is relatively weak (compared to his other matchups) doesn't mean that it's weak in itself.

I hope Flash opens with cheese. As we all know, Best is pretty susceptible to mind games, and it would throw him off his greedy PvT the rest of the series.

kinda offtopic, but what is more prestigious, winning osl or msl?
lol yeah, winning both. But if you have to pick one, osl by far.


I would even go so far as to say winning the MSL is harder. the Ro8 in the MSL is BO5 as opposed to the BO3 for the OSL. Also, I believe the qualifiers for the MSL are more rigorous.

Since only one person wins in either case, out of the same pool of people, they are equally hard, by definition. In what sense is it "harder" to win a Bo5 than a Bo3?


Same reason as why winning the French open is harder than winning Wimbledon. Its needs much more to win seven 4 hours lasting matches on ash compared with seven times serving 50 aces.

But ofc, this has nothing to do with prestigue. And imo, in this point coincidentally Starcraft is just like tennis: I would always choose the less hard one (OSL) - just importance wise.

Flash's winners interview recently:

Q: Tomorrow's MSL game will be the last of 2009
A: I think it's helpful that the MSL series are split. Because I always have a next time for the MSL, I can prepare for that comfortably. My focus will be on the OSL ro4. I hope you look forward to my games on January 1st.


I'm just getting this out of the way now, but Best should smell cheese coming from a mile away tonight. There's an extremely high chance Flash is going to try to end it early. He should see it coming, and so should everyone else here, he has only himself to blame if he doesn't expect it.

Flash has a Bo5 TvZ the day after he has ONE game of TvP in the less prestigious starleague. Cheese is extremely likely so that he doesn't have to practice TvP as much until after his Bo5 with Calm.



It's only one game against BeSt, he's spent enough time practicing for that one game, and his Bo5 series against Calm.
Flash, ForGG, and Movie fan.

Jaedong - easy one to call
Kal - Protoss fighting!
Kwanro - this could go either way but I feel like Kwanro can take it
BeSt - BeSt has amazing pvt and a good record vs Flash. Flash also has OSL to practice for which I bet he wants more than the MSL.

I expect some kind of timing push from Flash.

one of the few at least.
He has that whole semifinal bo5 to practice for tomorrow. Flash definitely cheeses or goes for quick wins to ease his mind. We saw it recently vs JD, we saw it in his osl win, and we saw it at the beginning of his career. The faster he wins the less he has to worry about for tomorrow and the more time he has to practice.

I definitely wouldn't rule out Cheese. Flash is closer to the OSL title than MSL. This is just one game. However, he is under a lot of pressure after he 7 rax Jaedong.
