Many players has "owned" Flash in Bo1. But how many of them did it in Bo5.

Zero is a great ZvTer and he definitely is capable of winning this MSL. But Flash IS the favorite in this final. What will definitely benefit Flash is the fact that for him it is the Nth final while for Zero this will be the first time to play at the big stage.

Even though the maps seem to favour zerg. Flash is a beast and almost 100% on each map. Flash 3-0

Wow, epic thread, Finale deserves a medal. Oh, the hype photos just amazing, the one where Flash is sitting with a turret, haha.
Well, about the games. I was always rooting for Zergs in any matchup, so I shall now. But honestly, I think Flash will either 3-1 either 3-0 Zero, but no matter what or how, he will win. I think Zero is a very talented cutie, but whenever I try to imagine their games I get the image of Flash stumping into the ground Zero's creativity with perfect execution of solid builds. I think that only JD has that monstrous level of mechanics and multitasking, that can actually rival Flash. I do hope the games will be a fun, not that sad panda vs Hydra.

ZerO vs. Flash games are epic. This will not be a 3:0, and I doubt it will be 3:1... and I may be so bold as to say Flash is a favorite, but ZerO can do this. I base this on their match history - ZerO seems to be the only player able to constantly push Flash to the edge of his capabilities.

I'll have some of what you're smoking! When did ZerO and Flash suddenly become rivals, and when has ZerO ever pushed Flash to his edge? (bo1 will never be to the edge, can't show your skill in just one game) People! Simply because they are in the same final does not make them rivals. Jaedong and Flash are true rivals. These two are just two great players facing eachother.

Several players have good percentages against Flash, including Zero and Jaedong. His games with Jaedong invariably hover near 50%.

I wonder if Jaedong gets more pumped up than usual against Flash. He does seem to perform better in those matchups.

Zero is the perfect player to win Bo5's imo, once he gets past his nerves. He just has incredible preparation against his opponents, like his total rapefest against Stork. It'll be interesting to see both players' concept for the series

Watch their games. Their records are also close. In fact, Flash has mentioned that the only reason he used the strategy he did in that infamous polaris rhapsody game was that his opponent was ZerO, and he had to use the perfect strategy (in context of the map) to beat him. They're also each other's practice partners, and know each other's playstyle well. They can match neck to neck. They're not overtly rivals only because they haven't met in Bos.

Best case scenario: either one wins epic 3-2 series
Worst case scenario: quick & easy 3-0

^ hahaha

It's Zero's first final. I don't remember him as being in many Bo5. Certainly not like Jaedong. Preparing games and dealing with Flash's broken skill along with tailored builds will be a challenge for him. The perfect way to prove his skill as a player. I'll be rooting, but it won't be easy. That guy in the hallway is a force of nature. The more time that goes by the harder it is to deny him. Then again, he did lose to Grandpatoss Much.

I can only recall 1 non-ZvZ Bo5 with Zero, the one vs Stork.

absolutely. and there is no doubt zero is a sick bo5 player. People keep sayin he wont be able to keep up with flash in a long series, well thats wrong. zero especially can. he has so many tricks up his sleeve and he especially said in interview he was gonna play to display great prowess and entertaining gameplay, so we can expect him to give a diverse performance.

And remember, flash already revealed his "secret" build in the match against hydra, so zero is the one with the trump cards still in his deck.
Aah thats the stuff..
