His playing ability and performances at that time CLEARLY shows he is a league above any players until his fall to Bisu. liking his playing ability =/= condoning his matchfixing, in case some buffoon comes in 2) fans of Protoss players.

Also, I think Flash was overly aggressive in 2, 3 game and hugely due to this fact he lost. At the beginning of a second game, he was so close, if only he didn't lose that fist tank. | ||

Interesting point - I went back out of interest, and I could only find him coming back from being 2-1 down in a bo5 once, against Stork in 2008. He has never been down 0-2 and still won in Brood War. The only time he did so was against Snute in IEM Toronto. | ||

He always took the lead in a series so he had a great mentality and focus on the game going into a BOX. But speaking of comebacks, Flash could do it INSIDE a game. I guess that speaks for a certain good mentality, but between games, if things dont go his way, he can tilt harder than the other champions it seems. | ||

Its insane how much levels last is above Flash right now. I expected 3-1 for last but it might just be 3-0. If you havent noticed from all the ex pros Flash is the one who jumped right into the competition, without the usual time for preparation that others spent before going into tournaments, i hope he will get better than this. | ||

He would just get stuck on these obvious loops. Maybe thats a mentality weakness and maybe thats why he never turns around series hes losing, though? He's a little robotic.Thank you for checking that. I could never recall him ever doing that you see. He always took the lead in a series so he had a great mentality and focus on the game going into a BOX. But speaking of comebacks, Flash could do it INSIDE a game. I guess that speaks for a certain good mentality, but between games, if things dont go his way, he can tilt harder than the other champions it seems.

It could be similar for Flash. | ||

In other hand I saw Last today in my dream, we had a talk, really weird, I never see any progamers in my dreams, I don't ever met any of them lol. Maybe that was a sign from above. Well done AlphaGo! If Last beats on finals undefeated our new God gonna be a computer AI! | ||

 Last, disappointing stuff from Flash, considering he mentioned he practiced quite a bit. After that first loss, it seemed like Flash forced the issue with more aggressive early games, only for Last to counter and dominate. These guys play each other a decent amount, and they tend to be much more nuanced and evenly played. Really impressive for Last to re-display his SSL10 prowess after being eliminated in SSL11.Just hoping Flash doesn't pull a  Bisu and sit out the next ASL because he doesn't want to practice harder and prove his naysayers wrong. Let's show them your mental fortitude, Flash!On August 23 2016 06:31 Essbee wrote: Apparently, nobody cares about my 3-0 prediction and the picture I took with Last right after his win haha :p Haha, just catching up with the thread -- nice work, even matching shorts and shoes! | ||

I wouldnt blame anyone for quiting after the standart progamer age. Day9 was asked why you dont play anymore, he answered that life is full of stress anyways and bw is just too much. | ||

I thought he practised before starting to stream, and he has streamed for a while now. But yeah it seemed pretty easy for him to get back up there. | ||

Flash has been practicing since end of 2015, so almost a year later, it's not an atypically "fast" return.Last advanced to SSL10 finals shortly after returning, EffOrt leapt back to the top shortly after his return, Bisu won SSL9 ~6 months after starting to stream, etc.The greats seem to recover quickly. Speaking of which, hopefully Jaedong does the same | ||

Not familiar with Day9, but presumably, he doesn't consider streaming BW his primary occupation like Bisu and Flash do. Neither have children or families to support. I have no idea what other significant outside stresses Bisu and Flash have that didn't exist a few years ago when they were practicing hard as BW/SC2 progamers. Would just like to see the best putting their best selves forward, rather than shiver away from challenges | ||

Seems to me that he is happy that there is a competitor which he can overcome. He sees there is a challenge and this makes him happy. Totally the opposite of Bisu, who sees a challenge and dodges | ||
