Shame there's almost no terrans in the MSL and none in the OSL. This is honestly looking like the hardest shot Flash has at a title because he has almost no way of playing his cinch match up.
MSL is split as perfectly as it can get in regards to racial diversity so you can't really say one race is lacking or hardly any of one race exists.

Maybe Flash is so good that all the other Terrans in the MSL are as if invisible?

of course JD is 9-0 this month so far, Flash 8-2. But Flash's play is still so strong that their Bo3 must decide between #1 and #2.

If there was a reverse Power Rank Fantasy would be No1. 0-5 (one of the losses were to Killer XD) in December, out of both leagues, not even on SKT's Proleague Lineup... good times for Fantasy anti-fans! :D

jaedong is 16-2 in this last month and a half
and flash is 24-3 in his last 2 month (flash had more games since he had to qualify )
flash lost to stork and best / hyun
jaedong lost to savior and saint
i'd say tomarrow games will be amz 2 of the best players while they are hot will play a bo3
oh man this will be so much fun

Insomuch as Canata and Bogus, two guys who'd be lucky to make it past Ro16, much less Ro8, are equally distributed. Basically, Flash has no chance of playing TvT in OSL and little chance of playing TvT in MSL because the terrans in MSL are kind of bad and will most likely get knocked out beforehand.
Light and Hwasin MIGHT make it far enough, but I doubt it since Hwasin's playing his bad match up and when was the last time Light broke Ro8 ?

as a member of my anti-team fantasy is earning me more points than half of my team members

Good thing he's not in either league...?

meant to quote holgerius my bad

isn't it funny how when each of the "greats" went on a ridiculous tear in the PL/SL's their marquee matchup was their mirror MU?
BeST's best MU during his Incruit run was his PvP
Jaedong's best MU (well. JvZ) was his ZvZ
Bisu had some crazy 70% win rate PvP
and now Flash as he takes on both SL's is a TvT MONSTER
interesting

That's actually pretty good observation. All of them dominated (or still dominate) their mirror match-up.
But Flash going 19-0 in official games with the last loss to Hyia in May is insane.
If we count gom this would be 22-1...

2009 Ultimate Proleague Championship was KeSPA sanctioned, i.e. official. It was in September.

No it was not sanctioned for creditable wins and losses. Otherwise KESPA wouldn't be saying Flash had a 19 win streak, considering his loss to Sea in that tournament.
It's in the same boat as STX masters and the map tests -- showmatches, nothing more.

KeSPA isn’t saying anything about Flash’s streaks — the newsmakers are saying. :D
Flash has this "19" win streak only in selected, not in sanctioned games. For this streak count PL, Starleague, and MSL were just selected — for the good hot news.

You're completely uninformed. There is past precedent for what counts and what does not count towards streak records.
If they were cherry-picking the 'good news', by the way, Flash would have had a 19 game TvZ streak. He does in TLPD, go check.

Hinanawi, please, tell me where I can find sources to be as "informed" as you are. :D
May be these sources are your dreams, aren’t they?
