Dont worry. I made the last finals thread and I dont think it got this many pages until like half way through game 1 when he got the brood lord vs brood lord infinite broodling fight and people couldnt decide if it was hilarious or a tragedy.

also it was put up early because OP wanted to get it in before someone else, who said they wanted to do it, got theirs up. aka sniping and confessing to it as well rofl
and it changed to a world of warcraft OP as well

You can't ignore the whole lot of posters who would take a KeSPA player's loss as an opportunity to argue against the Elephant article.
Especially on Reddit.

definitely agree with you. a lot of people were shit-talking kespa players back then, especially after the mlg invitational. this includes esf players like marineking who stated that kespa players are 'chobo', which they were at that point to be fair

Oh, are we there already?
Fun fact: Flash himself said it would take him years to catch up. Clearly he had anti-kespa biases. Quick, to the drama-mobile and lets spam the fanclub!

you kespa vs esf people are weird.
and all I want is 7 games.

Actually, he said it would likely take years to reach the level he was at in BW. That's quite different than catching up.
I would say he has already surpassed any Terran except INnoVation.

I suppose, Innophant would be too obvious. But it has a nice ring to it.
