Absolutely disgusting.

Terrible series. Rain played like he was drunk or something.

Yuck!

Yes, this is where the Protoss actually can PvT like a god.


Snow is the god killer, if anyone can beat flash in PvT is him


To be fair he Snow beat FlaSh on anti-FlaSh maps.

Flash's original calling card was his cheese..that game was like a throwback to 2007 14yo flash


It was actually a pretty brief period because IIRC he was facing really good players (I think he cheesed Bisu out of an OSL 2-0). But I remember this forum getting so pissed off about that, there was a period where he was mostly disliked by people lol

I said in a previous thread Rain's PvT is nowhere near good enough to beat Flash.

re: what is afreeca supposed to do about it?

run a league type system with championship belts where flash is defending it often... damn too bad he's taking a break

How the hell did Rain prepare? Did he even watch Flash's games? Flash didn't do anything unusual or extraordinary, Rain just reacted poorly to everything.


Dude is the GOAT. Anyone who wasn't expecting this simply wasn't paying attention. It's his last tournament. Afreeca doesn't have to do anything. Be happy they get to see the best player ever.

I highly doubt the Finals will be remotely competitive.

Rain exposed - not nonsense

Rain took out Last - not nonsense

There's a place and time for all kinds of series. It's these series that you really get to see the difference between the greatest and "pretty good". It's also these kinds of series that make it really special when you see a back and forth bo5 between two rivals. If every series was the same there wouldn't be any narratives ever.

Also, this series kinda reminded me of Flash vs Stork Bacchus OSL which lasted all of like 40 minutes as well hehe

He's going to military soon-ish, but he's stated that he won't be playing any future tournaments due to a pretty bad shoulder injury.
