Nerchios mass air stuff, he lost like 40 mutas while killing pretty much every worker. And Oz had about 30 phoenix

For Grubby to advance (I think) he must: 2-0 Avenge Avenge must lose 0-2 to Taeja and him Symbol must be 2-0'd by Taeja Then the score would be 3-4 for Grubby, 3-5 for Symbol, and 2-5 for Avenge. I'm not even sure he would advance over Symbol in that case but that's his only shot.

I'll gladly accept that he's really, really good mechanically, but something's wrong with his play right now. Needs better builds/coaching, maybe? I think he might do better on a non-KeSPA team, tbh.

Let's see if my prediction of flash+innovation dropping out early and the finals being a PvP will end up coming true ^^

Well his fanboys (like any fanboys) are pretty loud so .. you reap what you sow I guess. To be fair Stork fans (like me) weren't sure whether or not he'd retire but we weren't nearly as loud as this. And Stork's got a massive loss streak. And he's stuck in Challenger league.
Ah well, what can you do.

He loses because he isn't up to par. He got to the top by winning, nowadays he doesn't win that's why he isn't at the top.

Nah, just referencing one pick with TvZ winrates on map ForGG and JD played in Arena MSL finals. Also, does that mean that Jaekong was born long before :D? Ye thats the gripe people have with his title, but still he beat Kal and Flash before in a clean fashion. And JD made weird strategical choices. Nah, i remember that pic appeared after ForGG complained in his Code A quali interview that maps were too hard for terran.

Of course he's insanely strong in RTS, but right now he's just one of many in Starcraft 2. That might change, but it's not that surprising that he lost against YGO.

Maybe he is just not good with traveling like Nestea is. No he had already left, he wasn't there.

Just saw the Yugioh result! \o/

Now that Bisu retired people are scared of Flash retiring too, what a dumb logic.

Right, but to be fair, it's not about him losing some matches. It's about him looking extremely vulnerable and making mistakes all the time. The kinds of mistakes he almost never, ever made in BW.
That's pretty sad to watch and makes people think he's just not interested in the game. Which is more or less what can be inferred from some of his interviews.
Now I'm all for leaving him more time to do well, but it doesn't seem to move in the right direction atm (let's see what he can do in Code S though I guess).

Flash just doesn't seem to have the heart for the game anymore. At the beginning of HOTS/end of WOL, he seemed to, but now, he's just rather ambivalent. He still performs well because he is just that good at RTS games, but he hasn't performed at his peak since the beginning of the year.

No artists to make that possible.
