no.....

You just have to respond properly.

Free tried twice, and twice Flash pwned him with the exact same shit. Flash early game style seems to be a hard counter to 12 nex.

well I mean, Flash's forward rax is working so effectively because he knows Protoss players will 12 Nex to start with an economic advantage. You make it seem like forward rax doesn't hurt the Terran but if Protoss decides to zealot harass or early goon pressure the forward rax makes a huge difference. there's no sim city and there is no wall.

Then protoss are fucking dumb because Flash is playing all the time with forward rax theses days. If that was hard countered by anything except 12 nex, people would have done it.

its a risk u have to take vs flash and he recently started doing it a lot

Maybe you are right after all... Time will say. Anyway, the little baller is damn lucky, he bo wins every game.


Yep, that's pure luck.

On the two 2 player maps he 12nex, yeah whatever.
On the 4 player map, the best map to 12nex... he lets Flash 15cc.

Fuck.. imma die from blood pressure.


I don't understand why you say this. Free 12nexed the past 2 games and was hard countered by forward raxes.

His option this game would've been to go blind 12nex again, which I'm sure everyone would've called him stupid for.

Or play more conservatively and be safe against another forward rax.

He chose the latter, as I'm sure Flash mindfucked him into doing. Why are you posting shit like Free is 'letting' Flash 1raxCC? It's not like he has maphacks and knows exactly what build Flash is doing. Free has to react to Flash in this series, and unfortunately for him Flash predicted it perfectly, but implying that he's making a mistake for unluckily playing the wrong counter is just ignorant.

Looks like Free's getting arbiters off 2 bases. Free sees the third cc building and responds with his own third.

the only good thing free has going for him is that flash didn't scout early enough to figure out if it's 12nex or just FE from free.

yeah I completely agree. They never manage to ignore that they are playing a freaking monster and it affects their play


Once upon time another player affected his opponents this way.

I'm not going to say "the word" but we all know who I'm talking about.

I'm not as skilled as you guys in bw history and such. But what does Flash have to do to become "the word" as you put it? It seems to me he is really dominating most players, and is probably a favorite to win any match except maybe Jaedong, where they are almost even. Jaedong hasn't that over the top good this spring but Flash has been consistent for a long time and might win the double... Is it the fact that he isn't overwhelmingly favorite against all players and he hasn't won a double?


Time has inflated our perception of the past bonjwas. Objectively, no one has ever dominated as hard as Flash is right now. As good as Oov was even he never even made both semis two seasons in a row (and Flash is about to make both finals). Jaedong is arguably the only thing left.

Does the flashbonjwa discussion differ from korea and tl?

Miond game is mind game, but you still need some luck. Mind game and bad luck, and you lose anyway. You can predict things because you are smarter, you can't be sure 100%. Mind game is betting, and although on the long term, it's just skill, being 100% accurate on one serie involves a part of luck.
