Also, people should shut up about "Flash was never good in SC2". Flash losing to Yonghwa and Bravo = slump, these are players he would have been strongly favored against half a year ago. Personally I had figured that after his abominable performances in the second half of 2013 he would have returned to form by now and qualify for GSL Code S and be dominant in proleague, but it seems not. I don't have a window into Flash's mind anyway, so no idea how he is feeling about the game these days. His play seems lacking in confidence though, it's not like the Flash of old. | ||

People make fun of him because of unnecessary overhype but realistically he's a force to reckon with. | ||

What I mean by "current state" is that he's far away from having a reasonable claim to the title of "Terran amongst Terrans" (akin to "man among men" ;D). | ||

He got pissed and won the next one by sweeping every game in the semis and finals. It's OK, guys. yeah how long have you been telling yourself flash will make it in sc2? :p | ||

I think Maru is pretty reliable. He does better offline than online as well. Since August 2013 (season he won OSL) Maru's offline TvP is In these games, Maru is 21–14 (60.00%) in games and 10–3 (76.92%) in matches. source aligulac. | ||

He was always a promising Terran. Just hasn't been a champion yet. Let alone a god. Just an elephant, stuck in a room. | ||

it's actually not a bad idea for him. It would increase his stamina even more although with only 3 hr of sleep(if true), he'll likely crash soon enough and believe me, won't be able to stay up for a while. | ||

I recall jaedong saying he would only get 4 hours of sleep for years because he was always practicing. My father is the same, actually, always gets up before everyone else and goes to bed later. He says that he would sleep for not more than 6 hours a day for like two decades. (of course, he's chronically tired without sleep these days, so he's definitely started moderating) You can go a long time before you really crash&burn though. I don't know if being tired makes for efficient practice though. | ||
