What's most impressive is that Flash won OSL and is in MSL finals without playing a single game of his best matchup. Check for yourself, he didn't play one game against Terran.

Maybe if JD like really, really stomps him hard 3-0 then he might get #2, but come on, that's just not going to happen.



Flash has always said that he was most confident in his TvZ


And he enjoys it the most. I think we will have an epic final. I'm just afraid that Flash may be burned out after playing constantly bo5 in MSL and OSL. It takes a toll to be practicing constantly for big games. Shitloads of stress. One can't understand it unless works in a very stressful environment himself.

After MSL final Flash deserves a goddamn break but probably he won't get one...


Yeah he should take a break, but i think since he's actually winning in the starleagues now it's not as hard mentally for him to play as much as he does and he'll be able to do it.
He's happy now as opposed to depressed.
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

you realize how often this happens?

also flash had to prepare for 2 finals when jaedong prepares for one, those things can matter,
Not discrediting jaedong though, he's an absulute monster, but this month must go to flash for obvious reasons.


Flash is only getting one less day of pratice than JD since the OSL finals was the day after the MSL semis.

Either way, the top 2 on the list have to be Flash and Jaedong, regardless of order, otherwise there will be riots.

Except Flash will play Hero on Neo Moon Glave in ~17 hours, while Jaedong has the week off for proleague.

Don't you think that Flash has a bit busier schedule? It is not just about time to practice but how much stress and work you have. OSL final was a stressful event. He put all heart into winning it but even though he won he probably feels at least a bit worn down. So no, Flash is handicapped going into that final against Jaedong by much more than just 1 day of practice.

Why are we still talking about Flash and Jaedong? 1 and 2, booooring.

What's interesting is to see where Movie ends up in next month's PR. He played damn well against Flash, taking game three straight-up even, something that Best could not do. His builds were creative and he had the advantage in every one of the first three games. Even though he made the really bone-headed mistake in the series of throwing his army and the game into supply depots on HBR he didn't let the momentum just roll through him and gave us a damn good showing in sets two and three.

He has some spunk, we definitely haven't heard the last of him.

Flash wants to make sure he has the most wins in proleague on top of winning MSL, so he's playing vs STX tonight to get 21 wins (1 more than Zero. Flash is 20-3 and Zero is 20-10) vs by.Hero if he can.

It'd be cool if Flash ended the season #1 in every league. You know, cool for a Flash fan. 8)

It must suck to be barely holding on to 5th place with only one player on the team who's got a good record.

I think the MSL finals are 50-50; Flash is nuts right now, but he has angered Jaedong, who is the god of Bo5's. Also Jaedong is pretty serious about the MSL --- he's undefeated so far (yep, 10-0 in MSL).

This could be another Arena MSL finals*, but it could also go the way of GSL1. The truly exciting thing about Flash-Jaedong matches is that they can be long and epic, but it can also be one-sided domination either way, so fans literally have no idea what to expect.

This Bo5 could very possibly be "nasty, brutish, and quick".



*I know that was ForGG; just pointing out that both Flash and Jaedong can lose massively even in a Bo5.
May the BeSt man win.

I agree with this . I wonder thought if Flash will surpass Jaedong in kespa rank even if Jaedong manages to win the MSL ?

So; Flash is BY FAR the best player in Proleague, has won the OSL in a very convincing fashion, simultaneously reached the final in MSL and is constantly hovering around the recordbreaking 2400 in ELO. I personally think that Flash, no matter what happens in the MSL, deserves to keep his spot next month.
I believe in the almighty Grötslev! -- I am never serious and you should never believe a thing I say. Including the previous sentence.

He will. Flash's 2-0 over Jaedong was already ranked and if Jaedong wins the MSL over the #2 Kespa, he'll gain a lot more points than Flash's Overall OSL run.

That said, Flash has also defeated better players, Kespawise, for his MSL run in Best and Kwanro (2-0 and 3-1 after the last kespa rank). Combine that with a PL performance that has competely shadowed everyone else and, well, I think it'll be close if Jaedong wins but he'll definitely be ahead. If Flash wins he'll easily break 3500 Kespa.

Good summary. 22-3 in proleague over two rounds, team in first place, winning one title and making the finals of the other... This is totally nuts.

I just can't wait to see Flash in the winner's league.
