Ugh, most disappointing final ever. Flash played amazing in the first two games, then a few small mistakes (and a crazy build in the last game) and he just lost horribly. I doubt he can beat Jaedong in the MSL either :/.

I'm going to let these tears fall these tears
I taste the saline flavor upon my lips
I feel my heart pounding, my soul breaking
Why? Why am I crying?

I feel a breeze that causes me to shudder
I... I feel alive...
I feel human....
From a fan I have become human again
I can taste blood and sweat again
I can feel the grass between my feet
Each pebble has its own story

As I lay here I wonder what's next?
What will happen next?
I feel myself becoming more ferocious
I've never felt so alive...
As the tears hit my sheets
I feel alive...

With all the focus on the upset, and the "cheesy" (yeah fucking right) games 4 and 5, I think we're overlooking the brilliant play that Effort had in game 3. He faked Flash out. He made it look like he was going for a variation of that 3 hatch build he'd played before, then switched into a speedling muta build, purposely lost lings in order to bait Flash out by making him think, "Hmmm...3 hatch build at 3 expos...two fronts..and I just killed some lings...wonder what I should do?", then proceeded to rape face with a killer surround and exellent timing. GG Effort!

Erm yes. Flash made mistakes and lost.

Or do you forget Effort made mistakes in games 1 and 2 and it's ok to not blame him for those but give all the credit to Flash?

Your fanboy tears are blinding you right now

I didnt give credit to flash in the first two games, effort choked and repeatedly made mistakes, flash made one mistake in game three and five and it cost him both games, im meerly pointing out that for how fucking good flash has been over the past 7-8 months its compleate bullshit that effort is more deserving of the title


A mistake is a mistake man. He got rightly punished for it because Effort is so good. What does it matter if Flash was so solid for 8 months? TODAY he made mistakes and lost because of it. Seems fair to me ^_^

And I actually love Flash. This was my dream final come true

Worst post thus far. Especially when you consider how Effort also made horrible mistakes in games 1 and 2.

Thats what im saying, did you actually read my post? Effort made many mistakes in game one and two compared to flash's two, how people can say effort is more deserving of a title is beyond me

I feel for you. How about this to make you feel better:

Most people thought that Effort was just a formality on the way to beat JD in the MSL, but as we've found out in this series, this isn't so. Yeah, there's mistakes, but what they show is that Flash's early game is his weakest, and that he would likely have died to JD if they hadn't been brought to his attention in such a dramatic way.

Now that Flash is forced to come to terms with his weaknesses, he'll work on them - and you can be sure that's what he'll be working on for 13 long Pocari Sweat-sponsored hours the next week. Flash is a very, very smart kid, and with his drive to keep improving, he already has the right attitude. He can make up a lot of the 'reputation' he lost this time if he manages to win against JD.

So, if nothing else, I think the result of these finals will potentially make for better games next time. Flash has learned a lot tonight, and I'm curious what he'll come up with within a week.

Because Effort only needed two mistakes from Flash to win a bo5?

What a crappy OP. No writeup, no recommended games, nothing. If you're gonna do an LR thread for a starleague finals, put some effort into it or let someone more capable to do it.

Well hey, the good news is I can rest easy now knowing that Flash "deserved" this somehow and ignore the fact that two wins don't win a best of five.

I doubt many people think that Effort is actually the better player, but the fact is that it's Flash's own fault that he lost. The way you said that he got "gayed out" of it and that it's "fucking bullshit" suggested that you were just blaming Effort's "gay" play.

T____T FLASH~~~

Aside from FlaSh's psychic powers in game 2, and EffOrt's psychic powers in game 4, I thought it was a pretty mediocre series. Also:

For reals, I'm slightly disappointed in the OP, I love the banner but the rest is severely lacking. It's always nice to have some hype for a finals of this magnitude.

I feel bad for Flash now even after cheering for Effort =/ ultimately I wanted Flash to get his golden mouse and JD to win the MSL. Now, however, I might be cheering for Flash despite being a JD fanboy x.x Flash really does deserve a golden mouse >< hopefully he wins the next OSL and finally achieves that greatness.
