Maybe that's the account where he plays with his feets.

Stats aren't everything. eros_quality has given top pros a run for their money in several games. (Not saying he's FlaSh 100% yet)

Whattttt?Wow this is really shoking news!! I dont know if I like this or not. Actually I dont like it. Flash's comeback to bw is going to blow up the bw scene in terms of viewrship/hype. On the other hand we all know the bw scene isnt competitive anymore, a bunch of oldies streaming for balloons with many poor games even in the later stages of the tournaments. Lower prices, decline or not Flash imo should be in sc2 where the real competition is. But maybe I am misjudging the situation, maybe Flash considers himself an oldie who just wanna have some fun streaming bw.

I think the BW scene is a little bit bigger than you think and certainly there are more BW fans than SC2 fans in Korea. That said, I guess the SC2 scene is probably more serious/competitive right now, though in terms of actual Korean tournaments there's not much in SC2 and could be more in BW (not sure though, I'm not following the scene atm).
Honestly I don't see this stream as his comeback or anything. He might just occasionally stream for his fans, at least in his retirement interview it didn't sound like he plans to make a comeback in BW. We'll see though.

the top games are far from "oldies streaming for balloons". If you watch the VNSL or some smaller tours, the competition is very real. Ofc some of the BJ's just stream a couple of games to have a fun time (Nal_ra streaming on twitch for ex) but in general, the level of play is still very high. Regarding Flash: we will see how serious is about BW, if he sets his mind to it, he could rise back to the top for sure.

You never played BW ? You should at least play the campaign or if you don't have the original game, play the SC1 campaigns that were remade for SC2. Since campaign units will make you "feel" how the units play out in MP. ('cause unlinke SC2, the campaign units are the same as in the MP)

Oh yes I did play the campaigns! Never tried multiplayer tho. By "learn BW" I meant learn the basics of multiplayer builds and compositions, otherwise I won't be able to appreciate Flash's greatness
