Damn, still so much waiting. Without PL and OSL it seems like there is no BW heh. The TL Calendar filled with SC2 events isn't helping either lol.

Anyway, Hydra is a scary opponent indeed. There is one thing I haven't seen taken into consideration yet. Flash often mentioned Effort and Zero (or Stars in general) as his TvZ practice partners. I think is not a stretch to suppose he won't be getting any practice from them this time...

I'm really curious how will Flash approch this match. I wouldn't be suprised if he comes out with some really abusive builds, like against Kwanro.

On the other hand, now he can get practise with JD. :D

Maybe he will practice with Jaedong instead? Now that would be something.

I think we still need a better ZvZ finals
Flash has the best TvZ of all times and its not as entertaining as it used to be...
I watched a lot of JvF finals and I dont think it would be diferent this time
Go Hydra !!

I think people underestimate Hydra. He's an up and coming beast, very hungry to prove his last MSL wasn't a ZvZzzz fluke. Also, Flash is injured, and is a rather known quality, so Hydra can mix it up with some 9pools (counter both cheese and 14cc). So the mind-game advantage is surprisingly goes to Hydra. I'd like Flash to win, because ZvZ finals are rubbish, but I have a creeping suspicion that it's not going to happen.

Also, Flash vs. Zero would be epic. Their matches are so entertaining.

stop talking about those 14cc's.... you all know that it wasn't a 14cc that won Flash the games. It was his gameplay after those 14cc's. When it was 14cc vs 3hatch before pool, he also won, even though this is no bo advantage.

The problem is skill, not builds, IMHO.

And yeah lol really, Effort won't help him practice now obviously. BTW nor Hydra will probably receive a help from Fanta, 'cause they're close friends with Flash.

Just an example of abusive builds, man. But yea, it didn't help that JD played into Flash's hands that day.

Shit... I must cheer for Flash but can't convince myself to be against a Zerg in ZvT.

Im pretty pumped for this match.
Every single time Hydra surprises me. Winning against Jaedong last MSL, then defeating Stork, then Mind (who had dominated him in the first set and a match in PL)...
Now, I feel like he is on even foot with Flash. Im expecting matches worthy of finals here, because Im sure both players wont disappoint.
Flash never looks weak, but its been some time since he looked like the monster he was. Ill be cheering for him, but I wont be surprised if he loses, because all the odds are against him. I fear Hydra will incarnate Savior and crush Flash. Hes tottaly capable of doing it.
Show them youre still GOD Young-Ho, Flash.
JangBi will go the finals.

I don't mind Hydra, but I'll disappointed if FlaSh can't tie/exceed NaDa's titles.. Young Ho no doubt deserves it, after all he has broke every other record.

Due to increased S2 popularity, and bad calendar update timings.. when is this actually gonna be played?
Have you ever heard the story, about the Zergling and the Probe? The Probe didn't make it across the creep.

Flash V Zero would be UNBELIEVABLY EPIC!!!

Are you kidding me? After ALL those Terran Meeting Cartoons... Finally, we get to see the result!!! Will Flash actually use Bio? Will he summon Fantasy's doomed Mech strategy? Will Oov do the epic "WTF" face he showed to Fantasy?

I seriously cannot wait. Flash must decimate Hydra, then we will have an AMAZING final. JvF is always onesided in either direction, but FvZero... always a joy to watch.
BW Forever. Flash is the Ultimate Bonjwa.

I agree with 90% of this post. Only, Hydra does stand a very real chance of beating Flash. We'll know next week . . . (play the games on saturday ffs. . .). It's pretty amazing that Hydra has such good momentum. MSL gold and now MSL semi-finals. Wonder if he can take another gold

Btw. does anyone know why this is a whole week later than the other semi finals? Their Ro8 matches were only 2 days apart right?

If Flash wins the MSL, I bet he will put Hydra on his group in the next group selection ceremony.
What's a quote anyway?
