@treehugger I think it was very clear it was a 2 hatch because of the gas timing.
But I still find his 2nd hatch placement super interesting, maybe it was some sort of message like "this is gonna be useful in late game" while in reality he wanted to end the game early? I dunno, I still dont get why he didnt build it at his natural.

The difference is that with many two hatch muta builds, a third hatch is added after lair. EffOrt remained on two hatches. That's 300 minerals that Flash may have assumed went into a hatchery, while they went into zerglings instead.

Great read and excellent analysis of the games. Still can't believe Flash lost this.

Everybody seems to be ignoring the huge fact the flash fucking made the finals of both leagues 2 seasons in a row. Roffles, your bonjwas didnt do that, They also didnt have 100% win rate.

Also, flash is really young. When flash turns *insert jaedongs age here* he will probably have more golds and finals appearance than Nada. I just hope blizzard gtfo e-sports.


Bonjwa =/= win rate.

Great writeup, thanks! Really happy for Effort and CJ!

And even though i strongly dislike Flash, I am glad he got his gold in MSL, it was well earned. Still damn dissapointed that Jaedong didn't put up a better fight.

I agree with your views on the games kwark. Well done!

Nice article overall.

However can't really agree with everything said in "The post Korean Air-Hana Daetoo world".

Leessang domination severe blow-> they're in like almost every final these days.
And flash bonjwa "rumor" being dead -> Hey he only made 4 finals out of four possible. Lots of people has done that before ye...
No bonjwa did this and this is what kills the bonjwamode for him? then you can just say there have never been any bonjwas.

If you're going to claim he's not bonjwa atleast explain it with that it's because Jaedong has also been dominating for a long time or that Flash's time of domination hasn't been long enough.
Explaining it with "hey he lost a final" is rubbish.

In the comments I'm entirely prepared to call Flash bonjwa for his consistency and he is clearly above the competition. But in the news that's a shitstorm I can't stir up. I just say what I think happened in the games. But I agree that 4 finals in 4 is absolutely stunning.
On a slightly related note, Flash won 69% of his games in the OSL while Effort won 66% of his.

Flash dumbly proxying in game 4, then messing up his wall in game 5. Flash after all.
More bet fixing?

Savior had 4 wins and 2 runner-ups in 5 seasons (10 tournaments). Flash has 2 wins and 2 runner-ups in 2 seasons (4 tournaments). The ignorance of declaring the Bonjwa debate dead is astounding. How can it be dead when he is showing no signs of slowing down and if he wins both Starleagues next season he will do what Savior did in 2 full less seasons. I'm not a Flash fan, but I have to admit that in the next season or three he can still take the title.
