Strange how Taeja has better vT, better vZ and better vP ELO than Flash, but still falls behind in the overall ELO

same goes for life, who is ahead in vT and vZ and only lacks 6 points behind in vP.

ELO works in mysterious ways.

I think TL's Elo calculations work separately for the per matchup scores and the overall scores, so probably Flash beat players who were weaker vsT but stronger on the overall rating

KT finals - disappointing.


How is having the best players in the finals disappointing

Well, they're not exactly very exciting players to have in the final. Also that's team kill from Korea - always weird games can expected from it.

Snute was 2-0 up against Flash which is extremely impressive and having him in the final would be a lot more exciting - if I had to choose I would hope for Snute - Life final.


I actually agree, any other combination of Zest / Yoda / Life vs Flash / Snute / Taeja would have been more hype, had Snute beaten Flash and team killed Taeja (both very possible) it would have been the most epic hype finals.


That sounds boring to me! Flash being in the finals was the most hype it could get. His story is way better than having snute in the finals. Flash rarely goes to foreign tournaments. Snute is at every foreign tournament. The hype comparison just can't be matched.

Flash vs anyone would have made it hype!

But I think Flash vs Snute would have been more epic, only cuz Zest doesn't have much of a story behind him.

The only story was the KT team kill, but that gets boring fast.

KT crushing overrated players is never boring. I especially liked how the smirk on Taeja's face disappeared after the second game LOL

100% Agreed!!!!!

Pretty much this,. So nice to see the Kespa, the better players owning overseas like they should, taking the smirk of the faces off oversea players is godly.

Nice front page spoilers Teamliquid.

I unsubscribed from your Facebook page last year because of spoilers, and I trusted that I wouldn't have troubles with spoilers from the first page since you guys usually wait a day. Nope, go to TL to get to the vods and the spoilers are right in my face.

This has been their policy for some time now.

You can click the hide spoilers box located directly below the news section if you want to avoid them.
Y'know sometimes people ask me y'know like "What's your religion and stuff?" And I'm like "y' know it's like RTS." Uh, and they're like, "What's that?" And I'm like, "Y'know it's kinda like, kinda like Buddism."

KeSPA owning?

Flash was the top one the rest of so "godly" KeSPA players didn't even make to top 4 and i'm damm sure that if the bracket was inverted Zest wouldn't be on this finals.

Do you go to ESPN.com if you miss the super bowl to not expect to see spoilers? Turn off the spoilers(which is pretty awesome for TL to have), or stop complaining.

There's a hide Spoilers option on the front page, I suggest ticking that.

it's funny that a flash fan talks about others being overrated.

let's be real. flash won 1 premier tournament that had a prizemoney of 10k. 1. his streak of dominance is 2 months now. 2. it's the same overhyping as with classic after he won the GSL. everyone called him the "best palyer ever", the "unbeatable protoss holy shit better than rain and zest". now nobody talks about classic anymore, because he didn't do anything after winning that title. if anything, classic is much closer to becoming the next seed than he is to becoming the next zest. what i want to say is: if flash still is competitively releavant in 2 months, then he will take his place in the hall of champions, together with all the other all time greats. if he isn't, then he will be jsut another one hit wonder that LR regulars will pull up whenever they talk about a player who used to be good.

i don't give a flying fuck about him being god in sc:bw. sc2 is another domain, and in this domain we only know the legends of the kind of wings, the creator of the universe and the summer of taeja.

I'm mad now that Maru isn't invited to Kespa cup. It would be a travesty if Flash makes it to Blizzcon and Maru doesn't.
