Thanks for that translation! Will you be doing the full interview soon too? :D

Is it fun to watch when someone just rapes over and over and over? And he doesn't even have any flair or style. He just masses shit and attack moves, abuses maps, and makes tanks.

No it's not fun to watch as a viewer. It's like watching Oov back in his heydays when he just raped everything alive and everyone was like "This is gay".

What people want is more aggressive play from flash.

At first he was cheezing everyone

Then he was turtling.

People just want action-packed games like Jaedong or Bisu, or players who show-off their talent / skill (Fantasy, Boxer, etc). They find it boring to watch some kid get to 200/200 (Old Flash, new Flash is closer to 96/105) then roll the other guy, without even looking phased. I don't understand what drives this hate for him other than blatant anti-fanboyism, or misguided expectations.

I actually liked it when Flash cheesed all the time. At least he was exciting. Now all he does is turtle, turtle, turtle, abuse greedy builds, and then make tanks and win.
Where's the excitement in that?

I don't understand the desire to see Kwanro to roll Flash. I would guess that Jaedong fans upset at the bunker rush on HBR would want Flash to make it to the finals for Jaedong to exact revenge, but I guess I don't have the mentality of most.

Entertainment.



I've said this before, but I'll say it again: epic, entertaining matches can only result from a situation where the players are doing everything in their power to win. If the players have some attitude about wanting to entertain rather than win then you can kiss any epicness goodbye and start watching wrestling instead.

The fact is that both players were trying really hard to win, and Flash played too good for Best to have much of a chance at making things entertaining. The end.

Just curious, how else do you play your TvP?...

Uh yeah, I think I'll make 1 tank, maybe a handful of marines, put them all on low ground and put them on stop position.

Like, these players play to win... People say Flash sucks because he has no SL's under his belt, and now he's playing with solid mechanics and confidence and rolling everyone. Now that he is doing what people say he wasn't doing, people do a LoLuMaD. Yeah sure thing.

I think flash was only turtling so he would have a 100% chance to win instead of pushing and unexpectedly getting destroyed like he has been in the past by best.


yeah thats what I thought aswell

But doesn't like everyone know that you CAN'T be hasty with terran? They just use word turtle to flame because they hate Flash and when you do have someone you try to use any argument to offend him, right? In my mind turtling will always be something at like bnet 1v1 noobs lvl - you cover whole main with cannons to go to carriers or smth

I don't like SKT. I don't like them at all. Notice how in the bottom right of my post there's no team? Yeah, that's right. Actually, I don't like BeSt as a player at all. I'm very neutral. I just strongly dislike Flash, have for a while and these games cemented my image of him.

Well, actually its quite natural.
It happens in every sport actually. If one team wins so much, people will just hate that team, I think its in the natural of human want to support the weaker.
Like when I watch a football(soccer) match if my favourite not playing I will support the weaker team

I agree, pushing from two bases in every game is hardcore turtle terran.
