Using that as an example of Flash's innovation really sells short Flash's innovation.... He's been at the forefront of standard Terran play for the past year in almost every way (aside from Mech of course).

I've never understood why so many people seem to dislike Flash, is it just that Bisu and SKT1 are so popular and Flash first made his name taking Bisu apart? I was not reading TL much during that period of time.

Never used the word innovation once. =\ Innovation wise Flash is the man who created modern modern TvP. I was trying to point out to naysayers that he is clever and dynamic in game instead of just a straight robot who 'optimizes' one thing and executes.
Orbifold: It's just kind of the way of things. The big three (JD, Flash, Bisu) each have their own fanbase. Bisu's is bigger because he's SKT1/Protoss closest thing to Bonjwa/pretty/beat up Savior, so you end up seeing more of the type of fan that dislikes other players for rivaling their favorite -- the same kind of fans exist in all big fanbases, but Bisu's larger and more zealous fanbase seems more rambunctious when it's more weight of numbers.
