Just watched a replay between Flash and Leta dated April 2008. Leta owned the opening with a very effective wraith opening. Then somehow lost it, and I'm not sure how.

I haven't watched many Flash games, but are they very entertaining? Has he won any games with pimp moves under pressure? Or is he just a product of incredible hard work? Sorry, wrong thread lol.


To be honest, I think he's pretty boring, especially in PvT. He's good though.

He's just a very good player. He doesn't lose much and isn't that spectacular to watch, honestly. But, I am a fan and it makes me happy when he wins.

I can't say I really find his play entertaining either but I think that is for the same reasons that watching chess world champions playing is no fun without a good chess analyzing program close at hand. I usually don't see him do those pimp moves, but it's probably because I am so far under his level that I can't really appreciate what the difference between his turret placement compared to a A-class terran is, and why it makes the zerg suiciding all his mutas instead of winning with them.

Yeah, it sounds like he just wins by slowly taking small advantages until he dominates. I guess history only cares about wins, which is what he is doing very well. I mean, if Boxer hadn't won a couple of OSLs, we wouldn't be talking so much about him. Sad, but true.

Flash is the smartest player in this era though he's generally not very flashy (not intended). He's definitely not a boring robot like a lot of other players but you usually have to look behind the obvious to see why, which is why he's often misconstrued as a boring, mechanical player when he's not.

He makes TvT fun to watch and he's the only good TvP player anymore. His recent TvZ is pretty boring for the most part though and generally lacking inspiration; the previous game versus Jaedong was very nice though.

If you want to see cute stuff I'd suggest this (and go search youtube for flash vs jaedong on chupung ryeong):

the entertainment of flash's games depends solely on the calibre of his opponent

when he plays people he is much better than him he seems to play very boring, safe games with a lot of turtling (not that that is a bad thing at all, just not always the most exciting games)

but the games against bisu are fantastic, same with the jaedong games, and some of his tvt games against mind are great too

that is the best kind of winning. i do not see the attractiveness of cute tricks, they do not lead to consistent performance.
