I am glad Flash lost, and i hope that Dong will give him some trouble too.His domination is obvious,but hes human after all, who needs to lose sometimes as well.Pro scene becomes even more interesting with results from today's final.

Flash fanboys are so blind.

Why is every argument from you guys "...But its Flash so he deserved to win"

The person who wins deserves to win.

Like someone said in the page before, (nba reference) the Cavaliers may have been the best team in the regular season. They may have even been 11 games up on the Celtics. But you can't rationally think that the Celtics deserved to lose because they are the "worse team". You can't say The Cavaliers should have won because "its LeBron."

Effort played a great series and to say anything otherwise is to take away an accomplishment from a player who obviously prepared very well and knew exactly how to react to everything Flash could throw at him.

No one is saying that Flash isn't a great player. There is no doubt in my mind that even if he loses to Jaedong he is still currently the best SCBW player in the world. But to take that fact and then use it as evidence as to why Effort didn't deserve to win is just foolish.

To the fanboys who claim that Flash just played terribly in the last 3 games and because of that, Effort got lucky. Who is to blame for Flash playing poorly? There is no power outage this time, and game 1 regame was in Flash's favor so there is no argument there. The only person who can be blamed is Flash. Effort took advantage of poor decision making and rode it to a 3-2 victory.

To the fanboys who claim that Flash got "gayed" because the last 3 games didn't go into late game. Whose fault is that? As stated previously, Flash moved out at an inopportune time in game 3 causing him to lose. Flash's fault.
In game 4, he wanted to proxy 2 rax. Is that a decision someone who wanted to get into the late game makes? In game 5 he 14CCs, a build Flash is notorious for losing with and then did not have a solid back up plan providing Effort did any agression.

To the fanboys who claim Effort didn't deserve to win because his builds were all-in. If you see a 14CC that can be broken, how is it his fault for exploiting that? When Flash immediately places down a bunker after seeing Protoss do a 12Nex and he scouts it quickly, is that all-in cheese?

Hmm if Jaedong takes the MSL too (which I hope he does) this season wont be so great for Flash... I wonder how the PR would turn out then.

Copy/paste from youtube coments

If Flash loses the reasons are:
1)He threw it away.
2)He just didn't give a shit.
3)There is a governmental conspiracy against him.

If Flash wins the reasons are:
1) Because Flash is a God and blah blah.

Some Flash fans are seriously fucked up

SO hard to admit het got his ass kicked huh guys?

Words of wisdom right here.


"deserving" is a meaningless word. The only thing that matters is getting your opponent to lose 3 times. That's it, that's all.


Flash deserving this "more" is completely garbage.

Everyone just had high expectations of Flash and are disappointed. I understand wanting the underdog to win being a Sparkyz fan but seeing Flash's recent performance was amazing to watch so as an SC fan wanted there to be this perfect player.

Flash is of course not perfect and losing in a bo5 makes that more than clear. It really doesn't matter how he lost, he lost. Still rooting for Flash, very disappointed he didn't get his golden mouse, but oh well. He might make himself feel better by denying Jaedong his golden badge. Win or losing hoping Flash brings brings an even better game to the finals vs Jaedong.
