and the problem about GSL is it is just ONE tournament and you can drop out of it within one short group stage, while other tournaments (like PL) you need to play over several months.
Basing things on one tourney is knowingly not a good idea, cause you can cheese your way through several rounds and get very far. I like the proleague format more cause it takes the form over several months.
That is why I am wondering, why flash isn't on the list, being at 3rd place of "most kills"


Parting - 11 seasons of Code S.
DRG - 11 seasons of Code S.
Yugioh - 14 seasons of Code A.
Nestea - 10 seaons of Code S.
Mvp - 10 seasons of Code S.
Maru - 3 seasons of Code S ro8. top 4 in 3 World Finals consecutively.
Soulkey - 7 seaons in Code S. Only mised ro8 once.

You think I'm talking about just 1 season of GSL? It has gone on for months and yea, you can get a decent showing with cheesing, but for the most part, the best players keep rising to the top over and over and over again.

Strategically, Flash just hasn't shown he has what it takes to plan out a bo3 or longer series against players of lower, similar or higher level. It's just supposition, but I sometimes think Kespa coaches just help their players prep for PL and they are completely on their own for individual tournaments.

Wow, did not expect Polt to get 3-0'd by someone who could barely beat Targa.

Targa's ZvZ is good though. Polt's TvZ is not good.

Flash has failed at numerous tournaments. He is just a beast at preparing, thats why he is so strong in PL.

so what defines a good player?
Good micro`?
Good macro?
good allins?
good cheese?
or is it also good preparation?

on the other hand the most games he lost were just pure flash-counterbuilds If you saw the group stages comparing to he didn't prepare such builds in the group stages, what is why he fails in group stages mostly.

It's Polt, of course it is an advantage.

This is Polt's chance to make a comeback by constantly doing drops and pushing Armani around.
