Oh god, I'm not a BW fan but even I can appreciate BW legends showing at foreign events!

hah i wish flash played toss. So the bw legends would reunite as different races.

My opinion is too many players of a similar skill level in starcraft 2 with not high enough skill ceiling for a few players to really distinguish themselves. I mean the longest streak of domination was immvp but even he lost to a lot of random players even when he was at his peak. Flash might do a little better just with ability, but he will still lose like immvp does. There is nothing he can do better if he can I would love to hear what. Its not brood war he will not be as dominate there are too many hard counters and things like force fields that just remove micro no matter how good you are.
Starcraft 2 is good game, but brood war was better without going into big explanations.

Good to know he's enjoying SC2.
Hopefully he'll be up to par with GSL players within a year.
He's too good to let go. I thought the amount of denial was a little comical but its also a little sad because BW fans are fucking hardcore and i respect that. But the way they express it is just off-putting, but no matter, they won't be doing it anymore soon, might as well try to tolerate it while they can. You should have seen their reaction when LG decided to sponsor IM instead of BW team, they were confused as fuck.
Oh you are back.

awesome!
however, I fear the 1% chance scenario where he would not get the same results as we would expect. The negative shitstorm of comments would be huge >_>

Flash's Toss is as good as Free.

I hope this meeting they announced to talk between Kespa and Gom goes well. I'm worried there might be a long period of segregation between the player bases so we'll be stuck with subjective opinions as to what would happen if Flash played MKP/Stephano/DRG/Nestea/MMA/MVP/MC/Parting.
If MLG had a summer arena with 7 current SC2 stars and Flash...... well then..... we'd have ourselves a show
They might decide to treat him like a young prize fighter though, and set him up with some easier opponents for a long while to build the hype and his W/L.... but if he doesn't play any of the top SC2 pro's we'll be left in limbo to know just how good he is.

Hey nice to have you back. Can you stop being such a + Show Spoiler +? I can understand why you are happy that a good player is going to be playing SC2, but why would you be happy that other fellow gamers are hurt? SMH

Honestly gamers on both sides of the spectrum are dicks.

Great news, but I wish people wouldn't expect too much out of Flash. Yes hes amazing, but just imagine the pressure on him to perform in a new game thats constantly evolving and not necessarily as balanced or as figured out as BW was. I don't wanna see him go down due to SC2's volatile nature, I still want to see him reign supreme.
he makes the metagame so obviously he will

flash doesn't do "other" tourneys since kespa wouldn't allow that anyways.

ie: Limbo . BW people will say he's amazing, SC2 people will say prove it.
If someone offers him a 25k showmatch vs Stephano, he's just going to turn them down? He's busy that day? 
I can't wait to see what they do.... merger of two sports scenes like this.

I predicted many months ago that Kespa was making the move to convert Korean BW to SC2. It comes as no surprise in recent weeks that this will actually happen. Well, now I'll get to see Flash kick ass in SC2 (although I really enjoyed seeing him play BW) . You'll hear no complaints for me.

KeSPA probably won't be able to do this with Blizzard firmly in the picture, just like GOM isn't exactly itching to dissuade foreigners from playing in the GSL. It's just bad business.

If he's going to play on the KR servers, eventually people are going to get and cast replays.

Yay! I can't wait to see what the broodwar bonjwa has in store for the SC2 metagame.
|
Am I the only one who is more excited to see the end of Elephant in the room with flash's transition? I mean leading up to his first broadcasted match there will be more of this debate but once flash shows how he will actually play one of you guys will be wrong while other is right
