Im sure Flash could have won against Pure faster in their games. Maybe he just wanted to make Free feel secure about the 12 nexus strategy and get some easy wins.

That's actually not entirely implausible.

And appropriately evil for the final boss.

Great play by Flash.

Sure, this world has only 3 bonjwa's , BoxeR , Nada and ooV,

However this world has only one God.

Here's to an amazing final

I love seeing Flash mindfuck his opponents in Bo5's. This reminded me of his first OSL win.
May the BeSt man win.

Indeed... well, you could say that Free just served Flash this one.

is there a particular reason why we don't see 12nexus more in proleague/starleagues? it seems the pros outweigh the cons most of the time.

because stork vs flash on katrina in osl finals is what happens when you get a reputation for it.

also, i'm going to reassert ( as an anti-terran racist ) that flash is the worst person in the world, and i hope he loses every game from now on ( except against baby, who is the one person i hate more than him ).

Jaedong, Savior. More than anything I think you should draw the conclusion that Flash is imbalanced.

I really thought Free had a chance in this match going in. Apparently I was very wrong.
Zero fighting.

If terran is imbalanced, then it must require godly skills to actually exploit that imbalance. It's not like the entire scene is dominated by terrans. In fact, the likes of Free and Kal would probably be favorites against just about any other terran player besides Flash. If we excluded Flash, I doubt anyone would be complaining about Terran imbalance.

He always seem to 'guess' gate count perfectly to the point where his third is safe, but still earlier than any other terran would pull off. He knows when to allin with low scv count, he knows when to camp and split the map, he knows when to stop camping and tornado and he know when to just let the opponent mine out.
Perfect decisions, recently coupled with close to perfect micro as well - Flash truly is the
Ultimate Weapon.
Maybe it's because he is one of the few pros that still truly in his heart finds playing broodwar fun? His interviews have made it sound like he lies awake in bed at night thinking of strategies and in game situations just because he enjoys it. Or maybe he simply is more 'talented' than anyone else ever.

His decision making is what I believe has always separated him from the rest of the field. When he broke onto the scene this is how he won. He had good macro back then and what I would call below average micro at the time, but he still won based on the excellent decisions he always seemed to make. He can analyze the most complex of situations and come to the proper conclusion in a split-second, where we could sit here spending days talking about it and still not come up with the best answer. He knows what to do in every imaginable situation, and there is no glimmer of a second guess or self-doubt in his decisions. Nowadays, he has perfected his decision making to the point where he rarely-if-ever even gets out-built. His macro has been perfected and he has gone from a sub-par (by pro standards) micro'er to the best in the world. This basically multiplies the effects of his perfect decision making because it opens up more avenues that he can successfully pursue (a-la bunker rushes). He is truly the greatest Broodwar player ever.

To sum up the MSL semifinal:
Free: lolol, ive made an imaginable comeback and beat hiya, 1 of the best tvp players. Now i think i can take this flash guy, cos ive practised so hard, preparing elaborate strategies to take down this so called terran monster.
Flash: brb bunker rush
Free: wtf?
Flash: im in ur map timing push ur d00dz
Free: :'(

The players should admit defeat and give Flash a trophy for winning BW, then request him to switch to Protoss. I want to see what he can do with P.

I would love nothing more than for Flash to dual starleague, and then switch races, hopefully to Z. I want to see an epic Macro zerg again... Sauron for every fukin match. Yes please.
The probability of Kim Carrier getting all those predictions wrong is similar to the probability Flash loses a TvT. Kim Carrier MUST BE a genius. His only big mistake... STORK.

Not mine, forget who posted it first, but it pretty much summed it up: Someone beat the single player of broodwar within a week of it coming out. Ten years later, Flash beat the multiplayer.
