Oh no, looking at the bracket he would only have to go against Protoss thereafter. I bet he died to another ling-bane all in again, while being slightly greedy. Flash really has to work on his TvZ, maybe the pacing of Z is giving him too much trouble.

I also expect he died to all-ins. Games were over pretty quick compared to yesterday, and Sacsri isn't that good. A shame, really, he could have made it through the rest of the bracket. Alas, he made the KeSPA Cup (through a more difficult bracket given his TvZ weakness) and he's in GSL, that's decent enough for me.

Also note that (P)San is the only player who went through the KeSPA Cup qualifiers to also go through the SSL qualifiers today. Maybe playing 2 qualifiers in 2 days is difficult.

Yo certainly, mental stress cannot be underestimated. It is this little feeling of diffuse inattention and being tired in your head, that makes you miss opportunities and overlook dangerous signs, hard to describe. With Flash I also have the feeling his oppenents go to extra lengths to beat him. His macro games are all very good. 90% of his losses are when he is mindgamed and "shenanigan"ed early on.

I think too the mental stress is playing a big part. The schedule of these guys these days is insane! I guess this is why he skipped IEM qualis too.

Yeah well, as I said, I'm a bit disappointed that he lost like that because 1) the rest of his bracket was very much doable, 2) Sacsri isn't super strong so Flash should be able to beat him and 3) it's the first time he failed the SSL qualifiers.

But he'll be in Code A (and hopefully Code S, I hope you prepare well Flash) and KeSPA Cup as well as Proleague, so this isn't the saddest I've been about him losing this year.

I kinda was expecting Flash to lose this one, but not that early . I mean how many bo3 was he going to win before losing one? Only San made it through both qualifers and I bet he had a lot of luck on his side

Qualifers aside, TvZ is what Flash needs to work on. I dont get why this mu gives him so many problems. It is a shame to lose to early agression/run by's etc

By the way I assume he also played worse today than yesterday (not having seen any games he played today and only one yesterday) because the KeSPA Cup qualis were online. He's repeatedly said he's doing better in practice than live (which I'm willing to believe from his streams). And he can treat an online qualifier as a practice match while the offline ones put more pressure on him.

That's like... my best explanation why he can beat Hydra but not Sacsri when I don't take the possibility of an all-in into account (not sure how much Hydra would be influenced by NA -> KR lag but if it was much I reckon their series wouldn't have gone on for 90 minutes).

Its for sure unusual. Is there any vod for his games against Sacsri? I'd like to see how it all went down.

No. Best guess is that it involved all-ins but we don't know.

It worries me slightly losing to Sacsri, particularly 2-0 the day after he qualifies for KeSPA Cup.

Personally, Sacsri is a very weak player and with hiFlash's recent form I was feeling a lot more optimistic about his play in the coming summer. I suppose we can never know without the vod's and sometimes there is a degree of luck/randomness in starcraft.

Who knows, but I hope his Achilles hill of losing to Aggressive zerg players is only a momentary one.

Flash has been losing to agrro/tricky zergs for as long as I can remember in sc2 Who knows, there might be a day when he finally ''figures'' this match up. The bw approach is obviously not working for him atm

I hope that loss vs Sacsri will be a good lesson for him, I dont want him to lose GSL games to freaken allins. That DongRaeGu ling run-by in GSL still hearts

I wonder if he is still going to practice with Rain for his GSL finals tomorrow, doubt it though?
Or will it beLife? His style is similar to Byul's right?

He's live with the stream. Don't have time to record his results today, so if anyone else wants to, feel free to do it.

I see. I guess this is the worst performance on stream he had since his slump. Oh well. It happens.

His birthday is in a week, I hope KT manages to win the round as a gift :3

Thankfully since KT, SKT, Jin Air and CJ made the CJ-miracle happen KT isn't that desperate for points. But it'd be really good for them to win a round this year once, and against SKT of all teams.
