i will follow the bw pros into sc2.... hopefully, with time, i will come to understand and appreciate the game.... to correct a few things said before.... 230 apm is really low.... i have three replays of flash and his apm is in the low 300s which is indeed really low for a bw progamer | ||

You can't really dispute Flash's reputation as "God" The SC2 equivalent is if a player (MC, MMA, MVP, whoever) won 80% of the GSLs, got second place in the rest of them, and led his team to win all the GSTLs. I think you would call that player "God". | ||

He was an A-Teamer in 2008, not 2011. By the time he switched his winrate in the past 30 games was something like 28%. Definetely agree he was overhyped though. | ||

ForGG was a borderline A-Teamer when he switched. The last time he was fielded in BW was in December 2010, and was losing a lot. He switched b/c he would have probably retired. These are the facts. http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/details.php?section=korean&type=players&id=207&part=games&league=standard#tblt-842-1-1-DESC | ||

I believe he is saying that you come off as an arrogant elitist by saying stuff like "move over sc2 kiddies", "SC2 = bad" etc. At least that is the impression I get when I read what you write. You are of course entitled to your opinion, but please voice them in a less condescending way. Thank you. The fewest people here doubt that Flash will be a very, very good SC2 player. Will he dominate SC2? No way to tell yet when we didn't even see a single game from him, though it's certainly possible for a guy with his talent. | ||

This is the biggest hope I have with regards to his switch, otherwise he's going to do pretty much what anyone else will do, but a lot better. you're so right, the raven is ridiculously underused. if anyone is going to use the seeker missile it'll be Flash. no doubt. Also I hope that BW players' mechanics means we'll see some more 'macro a ton of units' rather than all ins and 2 base timings thus filtering out the all worse players for better games. MC comes to mind. | ||

HAW HAW HAW HAW HAW Have you even seen ForGG play? I love it when people with little ability to analyze BW pros in context think ForGG was "good". His play was sloppy and depended on timing pushes and random aggression. His MSL run was marked by a teamkill finals. Get out of here. User was temp banned for this post. | ||

I think you would call that player "God". Flash is a great (if not the greatest) RTS player. I would never hero/"god" worship him to the point of obsession like some people do. That was my point. Hope this cleared it up. | ||

He was an A-teamer in 2010 and he made it to Ro8 in the MSL (lost 3-0 to Flash though, terribly one sided match). He wasn't a top player when he retired, but the end of the 09-10 season he was definitely top 20. I think it's fair to say that his SC2 results were a disappointment. Many of us expected him to be one of the best players in the world by now. | ||
