Thanks Milkis!
Mind looks a lot different after the surgery I have to say.
Nal_rA to SC2 would be huge! As a player, of course.

I remember joking about Stats and Mind's chin all the time over irc with other TL guys, didn't know that it was an actual defect that needs to be corrected.

Ya agree. Project A was good, but old boy was so much better. Probably because of Nal_Ra. He is just damn funny and passionate. It also shows how insanely competitive BW is.

Really really hope that 8th team works out, dream team or not. Any kind of growth, really, would be very encouraging, as opposed to just hoping it doesn't shrink further.

Thanks as always Milkis, very appreciative of the translations.

I think some super rich team should pay flash a shitload of cash to switch to SC2. He would pay for himself in a couple of GSL wins anyway.
Starcraft is a lifestyle.

Flash would not tarnish his reputation like that.

If this injury slows Flash down will he switch to SC2?


Why switch when you're earning 300k USD/year no problem?


Didn't it get bumped to 400k?


either way its more than ten times what every korean sc2 player earns as salary combined.


I think his point was if he cant play at a level to earn him 300k, and so he has to negotiate much lower, would that be enough to jump. Otherwise, yes it would be dumb for him to leave a gravy train mid gravy.


He was doing just fine before the surgery, there's no reason to think he's suddenly going to become an MVP-level player.


But that was point, the surgery was an extensive and invasive procedure effecting a good part of his arm, no just wrist. I am fairly certain they had to cut or remove portions of muscle that were causing pressure on his nerves. His capabilities could have been effected since the only reason those muscles were there was because they got built up over the course of playing so much. Pending his rehab, he may need a longer ramp up time to get back into the saddle then a lot of people think.

So if he can't perform at Flash levels for the next 6 months - year while he heals and rebuilds lost strength, adapts to shifts in the meta game, etc, he isn't going to be pulling those huge numbers. And you have to figure how the SC2 community develops in the next year or so, which no one knows.

He will likely just stick to BW and probably slowly ramp up to as close as old Flash as possible, but there is a chance he will either move on to something else entirely or try his hand at SC2, if he doesn't live up to past hype or worse, his own standards for himself.


If he wasn't affected by the injury which caused him to require the surgery then I don't see how the surgery itself should be that big of a problem. There is zero reason to suggest he will leave BW, let alone go to sc2.

The OP says he will make a full recovery in 2-3 months, not 6 months to a year.

Little do you know, Flash's surgery was actually to give him bionic arms since flesh and bone can't handle that high a level of APM.
