My prediction is, Shine will manage to kill at most 10 units (including his own) in all 3 games combined.


Anybody care to count?

Shine killed more than 10 units in game 3 alone.

Worst finals ever? Even if it was 3-0 I was expecting some macro games. What happened to Shine's "10 year reserved just for Flash" builds, only 1st game he did some trick after he fell apart. Bisu must be feeling satisfied right now although even sSak almost beat him so he could go out 0-3 too.

For the second time

Third time.

In fact has Bisu actually won an offline series against him?


Shines entire career verges on the fact he keeps beating Bisu. Damn you Shine! *shakes fist*

To beat Flash you need someone who has an ok matchup against him AND at the same time good against the rest of the field.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the tournament is below a player of his caliber and this format

Fans vote eight players into the tournament"

Officially? Because the top players didn't agree with the voting system. Inofficially (read: the reasons they gave at first) because they didn't want to/were exhausted/felt it took to much time up(streaming is the real money)

Most Games are just Best of One. The Elimination Stage is Best of 3 and the price pool isn't that bad. 8600$ for the winner 4300$ for second place and there is even money for the regular season games. Effort got 2K by winning 6 Best of One games.

No I'm pretty sure it has to do with Afreeca stepping in and telling players like Bisu and Flash to exclusively compete in their league, Afreeca doesn't want competition.

I was rooting for Shine so hard, but I came to witness The Bag of Builds and saw the punching bag

Most of those players are sponsored and supported by Afreeca, I think it has more to do with Afreeca having a monopoly over the new BW scene.

Flash can't be beat, good luck JD and Bisu fanboys, tried so hard to believe something new could work vs old fashioned godly mechanics, I guess not

Flash prepared well. His aggressive plays disrupted Shine's 'bag of builds', and forced the game into a semi-chaotic state where his greater mechanical skill would prevail.

Flash would've won anyway if he played more standard and solid. That it turned out into an utter domination is testament of his strategic superiority as well.

This is Flashs era. But eventually he will be dethroned as well. It's like in Go or Chess where a champion can rule for years and just proves that broodwar has a much higher ceiling then starcraft 2.
But somehow I have the feeling that Flash will be Bonjwa with the longest reign.

FlaSh didn't defeat the Bag of Builds. FlaSh took a finals newbie to a ride and schooled him.

^ lol. Keep safe yo

So who of the current crop is good enough to take out Flash in a bo5? I feel maybe Best or Soulkey. Anyone else? And please don't throw Bisu or Last at me.

Best, Last, Effort (why not Bisu on a good day?).
