Let's collect some facts:

- Leta played a risky early game that ended with him having a nice advantage
- In the early midgame Leta extended that early game advantage with nice Micro and good decisions and put Flash into a position of no return in the midgame
- Not even a B Teamer should lose a game vs. Flash with such an advantage
- Leta threw that big advantage in 2 minutes with a WTF-drop and by not defending vs Vulture harass
- even after that failed drop and the Vulture Harass Leta was still ahead
- after the failed drop it seemed like Leta was AFK. He didnt do much for the rest of the game and especially nothing good.
- Flash showed once again great fighting spirit
- Flash's macro, his lategame and especially the drop in Leta's main were a class of his own


Anyone else lol'd at this? ^^ But I agree with u fenrax.
Empires are not brought down by outside forces - they are destroyed by weaknesses from within

Action and Leta are two of the weakest players out of the eight. It makes sense that they get set up against the two strongest players.

I hope Jaedong, Stork, Zero and Flash make it out of their groups. Those semi-finals are going to be absolutely epic. They sound even more exciting than Flash vs. Fantasy and JD vs. Light.

Happy that Flash won. I have to say I didn't expect him to win given that he has been playing that many games recently and Leta had plenty of time and material to analyze Flash's play. And it seems he was on the verge of winning too but blew it big time.


Hope that Jaedong, Stork, Zero and Flash advance further.

Yeah after Leta watched Flash comeback in that game against Fantasy, I think Leta got fucking scared and wanted to end it asap, every second you give Flash to live, your chance to win decreases, unfortunately he rushed it too much and made a terrible mistake.

People complaining how Flash got lucky when he got himself from disadvantage and won game which was his opponents to lose were understandable the first couple of times it happened, annoying when it was like the fortieth similar game, and now are just embarrassing yourself.

This is Flash. He wins seemingly impossible games. Get used to it.

Chinese interview for stork and flash

here goes scrub translation for flash
[image loading]


- Continuing from yesterday you won another televised match
▲ Winning on both days, feels like playing firebathero.
火哥 = fbh.

- The situation was bad
▲ For my fans I have to fight till the end, this is a strong mindset. All of a sudden the table was turned. About 7 or 8 times I wanted to type GG.

- In early and mid game playing against strong attacks, do you feel dizzy. [晕]
▲ Very dizzy. I thought I was going to finish with first attack, but he defended, that was unfortunate. Leta hyung's attack was very strong.

- Leta's dropship was killed with ease.
▲ Even that I was still in a disadvantage. Leta hyung saved up a lot, and I didnt take 9 o' clock. No matter what, a win is a win.

- Sneaking in dropships was very cleaver
▲ 。It felt like going to a stalemate. I poured my scans and sent my dropships. Felt like good timing.

- Tommorrow there is going to be WCG's match.
▲ I need to go back and practice for tommorrow (laugh) Recently I only play TvT, my TvP feels like slipping a lot, can't go on like this, need to find my feel back.

- Kal facing you using carrier always loses.
▲ 。Kal hyung cant use carriers (laugh), same with Bisu hyung (laugh)

- Anything else to say?
▲ I will be prepared for tomorrow's match. Also my coach's mother's body is recovering well and left the hospital. I wanted to say that long time ago, now I am saying it. Through this, I think I need to treat my parents better.

well against Jaedong you can do something... not much, but something at least, Flash, nothing T_T

I think part of it is the pressure, in these ridiculous games, the room for error is so small and playing against Flash or Jaedong is just really intimidating, your heart sinks even before you enter the booth.
Thus is the power of a bonjwa, to crush players with reputation.

also, rewatching the game, the intense harass with the vulture before Leta's blunder was pretty sick too! it helped him claw back, from then on Leta looked flustered even though that was only about halfway through the game, you can tell he was just too shaken. Even when Flash was so disadvantaged in the game and against Fantasy, he remained calm and kept playing.

Another thing that was weird was that Leta had twice the amount of factories that flash had...

Terrans should pick up on lockdown. Sure the investment is high, but loosing that many goliaths is a huge investment loss too.
Through high and low, bisu boy, through high and low.

Haha. So true. It's funny how some top players just have mental blocks with certain units.

you know some sports stars also do badly after they sign a new contract, maybe this is what happened to Leta?

my bad.
it's more like shouldn't use carriers against him. not Kal and Bisu are complete noobs with carriers.
▲ Kal哥不能出航母啊(笑),Bisu哥也是(笑)。


here is Jaedong interview in chinese
http://www.playsc.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=209636&extra=page=1&filter=typeid&typeid=6

-? Your thoughts on winning the first match?
▲ Next week is place tour match(?) I can play with ease. Knowing that I have to play ZvZ in Ro8 I am confident, same with next week's games.
(I think that's where they get out the normal stadium and play)

- you rarely play against Action.
▲ Playing with rookies I always hope to show the outstanding side of me. Playing with rookie with momentum has a burden as well. I won't fear next time, I hope to win in a overwhelming way.

- Tommorrow you have WCG and MSL match.
▲ MSL Semi is very important. Because I have to play today, I can't prepare well for tomorrow's match. I will have to prepare harder.

- Pick one between WCG and MSL?
▲ For me MSL is more important, but I want to do good in both. If I lose WCG I can will play for the 3rd place, that's why I can more relax about it.

- More focus on playing against Light in MSL semi?
▲ Yes, I am more focused on tomorrow's match.

- Flash got to the MSL final first.
▲ Now it will be the 3rd consecutive season meeting in the final if I advance as well. Actually I have a lot of burden. After watching Flash's match yesterday, felt that he is too good. In order to coordinate with him I must bring a splendid series as well. Tomorrow's match is very important.

- Anything else to say
▲ Hoped that everybody will very much anticipate tomorrow's competition. Next OSL 8 is place tour match, hope many fans will come.
