Flash fans were quick to note his success, but the longevity isn't there, yet. Jaedong has been around, and has proven himself time and again. That's all I was sayin. I can see where you're coming from, but I think the haters are being just as quick to note Flash's failures as the fanboys are to note his successes (this was true with Jaedong as well).
I usually read these boards and hope that Jaedong and Flash don't read the Korean boards that look similar to ours, expecting them to play perfectly every single day, match, even. They really do have to steel their minds against this stuff. Some players never come off a slump, and their fickle fans don't lessen the pain.
It's OK when they lose. When else are they going to reinvent their strategies? While they're winning? Nah...
(i.e. I think it would have been silly for flash to change his TvT style when he was on that 20+ win streak)

and yes theyango , i played tvt a lot , and i love this match up .

Lol, this is like Ruby v.s. Flash all over again.
Flash raping in non-ace and then the other Terran suddenly makes Flash look like lower tier player in ACE.

But what about being best at it? For example, take Flash v Midas. He can just set up a bunker and hold off aggression even when he had no marines initially. If in ZvZ, your opponent gets lings into your base before you start making any, you're dead. No chance for a comeback. There's a way bigger defender's advantage in TvT than ZvZ, allowing the better player, the one with more skill, to win in the end.

He actually isn't. 47% and 3-7 in last 10.

What he means is that ZvZ is harder to be dominating at.
Because of it's low econ its more subtle in nature. He's not saying its HARDER or its more Complex.
ZvZ is more like a balancing act and very easy to drop. It's very low econ and losing 2 units can cost you the game. So 80% is very significant...
TvT and PvP are generally longer, more complex, and very tedious (especially TvT)... and therefor a big skill gap is going to help you more and more. You might even say there is more room for error because those 2 SVC's don't matter as much as those 2 drones.
It's not that his argument is 100% gold but its certainly valid... people seem to want to either be "YES thats correct" or "NO you're totally wrong". I would agree that ZvZ is harder to maintain a very high win rate at than TvT, given equal skill of players.

You're missing the point. ZvZ is harder in the sense that it's difficult to win consistently because games can be decided in the matter of a few seconds. One poorly microed ling battle and it can be gg. One poorly executed muta control vs. scourge and it can be gg. Then there's also the luck factor that comes from build orders. If one player goes 4 pool or 9 pool against an opponent going 12 hatch, he is almost guaranteed a win most of the time if he sent his lings in the right direction.
Due to all these factors, it's not uncommon for even mediocre/bad zergs to beat good zergs. In the mirror matchups, it's more "easy" for good players to consistently beat weaker players because even if they make a few small mistakes, they can still overcome the opponent in the long run through their superior mechanics and control.
EDIT: It seems like a bunch of people have already explained this point, so this post is a bit redundant.

ZvZ and PvP are quite different from the other matchups, to my eye - defender's advantage is minimal --> aggressive micro-oriented play. In no other matchup is taking your natural a risky play. That's pretty damn unforgiving, and gives you drastically less room to prove your superiority over the other player.
The other matchups have much greater defender's advantage, and therefore afford the stronger player more opportunities to make a comeback --> easier for a stronger player to win over a lesser player.

it's cuz he came out and said he wants 60 wins, if he didn't jinx himself he'd be regular flash.
LEE YOUNG HO FIGHTING

Yeah I agree, ZvZ and PvP have the least defender's advantage. Good PvP players are always great to watch. Bisu's and Stork's used to be so eye boggling. :| Hope they come back soonish.
|
Flash haters are having a field day I see. Good for them, they deserve it because when MSL and OSL start the tears are going to start flowing again.

I don't get it, flash will get eliminated in his first round by a mediocre terran.
