Flash said he was still in it. Seems logical to go based off what the players themselves think no? So if Flash say something then its true? The point is that Nony is a better sportsman then Flash apparently, and all people should be able to judge for themself. The Nony idra game was far closer then the JD flash, and still Nony said it was fair and most terran fanboys agreed it was ok to give Idra the win, after all Idra was ahead. But when Flash to 99% had lost the game vs JD it was such a horrible fault to give JD the win, sinc a comback possibly could have happend etc. Dont you see the fun when somebody change there mind about two similar cases like that? | ||

I think it was great that Flash lost his AK to a lame gay as protoss. I mean Flash himself has won his share of games by being lame with his gayfaction and abusing terran maps. This. You wouldn't see any of these bigoted flash fanboys complaining if it was Flash that had successfully pulled off a 'gay strat'; instead they would be cooing about how Flash has such wonderful variety in his play. I swear Flash fanboys are the most unreasonable kind I've seen around here in a long time. What gay strats can he really do in TvP? Bunker rush? Thats just a "standard"ish response to 12 nex. The only "cheese" are really creative timing pushes with obscure tank / marine / vulture compositions. Even if theyre cheese they'd have to be well thought out. What makes this gay is that all you do is build a nexus on 12, hope you get lucky the opponent scouts the wrong way, and tech to DTs. Honestly its barely a cheese cause DTs give you map control even if they fail and your eco is skyrocketing from 12 nex Yea poor Terran, they just dont have any gay strats to pull off vs protoss. Every Terran win is the result of master play and super duper micro and skill. Jeez. Terran can throw in good cheese and yet are most cost effective in split maps against Z & P, and in many aspects of game. The way they turtle, knowing in the end they'll at least get a draw and win when opponent decide to throw units away. When the race created for defense abuse defense and got outsmart sometimes fans complain of abuse. LOL. Turtling? Just take 2 expansions...problem solved. Once protoss gets the 3rd terran can no longer turtle and has to decide between aggresion, vulture play, or taking his own third. HOnestly its protoss in PvT that get to sit back and expand | ||

Youuuuu didn't watch the MSL I'm assuming. Nony's disadvantage (having like 10 probes at midgame after a failed cheese) isn't the same as "Jaedong's got a strong army and economy and Flash is low on irradiate and about to take a new expansion with his also large army." Nony being incredibly cordial and giving up the game was very very generous of him, but it wasn't the same situation and it's dumb to compare. | ||

But the people that say disparaging things about "fanboys" in order to seem cool have always been at least as annoying as the "fanboys" themselves, and I don't see that changing soon. EDIT: Super impressive play by Flash tonight. The loss to M18M stings, but taking a loss for 7 games won against top opponents doesn't seem so bad. Seriously, look at Flash's hit list this WL: Jaedong, Bisu, Fantasy, Best, Stork, Jangbi, FBH. And KT is what, 6-0? I'm not "annoyed" by bad fanboys. Nothing is more entertaining in TL than reading some ridiculous post of say SuperArc, trying to excuse Jaedong for his loss by totally disregarding the other guys skills. Bad fanboys are fun and vital part of our community. Getting annoyed by guy who doesnt cheer for your player is plainly stupid. <3 MrHoon,Scara, Atrioc, Avidkeystamper | ||

Seriously, look at Flash's hit list this WL: Jaedong, Bisu, Fantasy, Best, Stork, Jangbi, FBH. And KT is what, 6-0? I'm not "annoyed" by bad fanboys. Precisely. Your comment about whose fanbase is the "worst" was both less funny and more obnoxious than fanboy posts, because it was a direct disparagement of Jaedong's fanbase (which used to be the worst!) and Flash's fanbase (which is the new worst!). As part of the fanbase of both players, I don't take offense at such posts (this is the internet, people say dumb stuff), but neither would it bother me if people didn't write them in the first place. I don't say this to antagonize you --- I actually think you'll understand what I'm trying to say. It wasn't your post specifically that made me want to write this, but more a general attitude that's common and that I think we'd be better off without. (Shooting down or mocking ridiculous fanboy posts is totally fine in my book --- it's the generalization to an entire fanbase that's irritating.) | ||

Aren't you not allowed to participate in balance discussions? Anyways, m18m isn't a bad player at all. I'm surprised that people haven't realized this. Both his pvp and pvt are very solid. Yes, his pvz is lacking, but Rolster's Z lineup isn't wonderful anyways. Hoejja is definitely their best vs P sniper, but he still is inconsistent at times, along with wunder fail luxury and firefist/815. Violet/Stats would probably be the larger concern, and it's not like any other member of khan left would have fared much better vs them. Turn/Great would have been the only other real options and Great has proven himself incapable of beating Violet even after killing half his probes with a runby. Even if it was just to snipe Flash, getting +1 in the differential can actually matter a lot later on when it comes to playoff contention. | ||

What do you do against this? Scout it earlier and pull 6scvs w/ rines to bunker the 12 nex? Cross positions? I know what Idra thinks, but anyone else? | ||
