EPTAnyway. Flash is so dominant right now. Perhaps when he wins the OSL most of the Savior fanboys will shut up and finally realized their hero has been long surpassed.

Man he's good. Even tho they rocked in WL, KT still shouldn't be the fav to win the PL since recent play hasn't shown that there are 2 other players on the team who can consistantly win. The only reason Flash is on such a role atm and has such high stats (as fans have been quick to point out) is because he is being forced to win so many games for the team to advance. We'll see how this works in the PL where he can only go once, maybe twice if his team does their job. (And wow are Flash fans annoying... they act like he's been playing like this for years. A year ago he couldn't win a game that mattered for his life. He's only been this good since like Oct, which while still amazing, is still only a couple of months. GIve people time to figure him out) | ||

Hyperbole doesn't help your argument. Nor does blatantly misreading mine. The fact is over the time of this "dominance" he has only won a single SL trophy, while in the past there has been people who not only dominated for much longer periods of time, but also won a lot more hardware during that time. | ||

The fact is over the time of this "dominance" he has only won a single SL trophy, while in the past there has been people who not only dominated for much longer periods of time, but also won a lot more hardware during that time. He's been the best Terran since late 2008 when he destroyed Stork in the (at the time) shortest OSL finals ever, revolutionized TvP forever, and cemented himself as the most dominant macro player in the world. Fantasy was never better than Flash, despite what fanboys say. No he hasn't been dominating as #1 in the StarLeagues/etc. since he rose to the top 2 years ago but neither has Jaedong or any other player. Keep in mind, during the days of NaDa/Iloveoov progamers played far less games. NaDa won simultaneous OSL/MSL with a lot of time to practice inbetween. The fact that Flash can get a Gold/Silver in one season with so little time to practice while still carrying his team through proleague is absolutely stunning. "A single SL trophy" What the fuck do you expect? When Flash wins double golds every season THEN he's really good? Don't be ridiculous. Winning a SL trophy means a lot. Winning an SL gold AND silver AND WL gold in the same season means more than NaDa's double starleague victory considering the modern progamer practice schedule. Players like NaDa and Iloveoov didn't dominate as #1 through their first SL win to their last. It really says a lot that Flash has been the #1 Terran for so long, has never failed to qualify for the Starleagues since his debut in 2007, and has consistently and constantly innovated terran play through his short career. | ||

Um, Flash has only played 1 season. Aside from Nada no one has won double titles (and Nada did it a month apart against the same player). He literally is still in the process of winning the others. It'll take a couple of months but you'd be foolish to not think Flash will win a title this season. | ||

Exactly... since he has only played 1 season the bonjwa talk is premature, which was the entire point of my post. I never once said he can't earn it or that it's some impossible platform that noone can ever attain again. Come back when he does win both this season and then i'll be on your side. Having said that, he is certainly playing LIKE a bonjwa atm, and I don't see anyone stopping him from the trophies, especially en route to the golden mouse(especially since JD is out of the OSL now). Also, funny how the poster 2 above is giving Flash credit for the WL win. Either he did it or it was a team venture, you can't have it both ways. I guess this seperates the Flash fanbois from the KT ones. | ||

The problem is that Flash started his uber-dominance at the very beginning of the last season. This means that even though 6 months passed there were only 2 SL finals and hence he had only 2 chances to get a title. The fact that he got gold and silver is then very very meaningful. Unfortunately, Flash will have to keep this kind of surreal dominance for 2 more months to have a chance to win more titles. | ||

Has nothing to do with fanboyism. | ||

Taking out Light in WL is as important as taking out Sea. Flash is one Jaehoon and one Tyson above Violet for this finals which, while significant, isn't wholly impressive for someone of Flash's caliber. Credit is due to Violet. Same for ForGG. It's not like he choked, just barely lost to Sea. | ||
