Sorry to burst your bubble, 50% winrate at high-masters on Korea is absolutely not mediocre lol.


LS, what are your expectations for these bw players switching over? just wondering You've prob encountered a few of them on ladder right?

It might be just me, but it seems Flash still needs tons of practice. He didn't seem very fast either.


If you watch MKP's stream, MKP plays faster and smoother than Flash.

Flash seems to be struggling with the interface. It will take him some time to adapt to the SC2 interface. It doesn't help that he has to continue to practice on the BW interface.

The potential is there for Flash to be the best at SC2, but probably not for at least 6 months to 1 year. He is at a huge disadvantage against pure SC2 pros because he has to practice BW.


Read the artical this is about. He is playing sc2 fulltime atm and wont start BW untill the start of Proleague (2 weeks from now)
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

I'll just throw some more stuff around for you guys to let your imaginations run wild with. The Flash account logged a bunch of custom games a few days ago against a few recognizable IDs.

PGAB ((P)Wooki)
http://sc2ranks.com/kr/2305463/PGAB

and the already known sc2 account of (P)Lizzy
http://sc2ranks.com/kr/1822138/Lizzy

as well as unrecognizable IDs such as

zerg player QSC ( http://sc2ranks.com/kr/91351/QSC )

zerg player 공격한번가자 ( http://sc2ranks.com/kr/3460261/공격한번가자 )

and protoss player TaeyeoN ( http://sc2ranks.com/kr/1842795/TaeyeoN )

So who do we think these accounts belong to? Fellow KT rolster members? Members of other KeSPA (unlikely) or GOM teams? Or just complete randoms?

Gogo speculate to your heart's content!
So where are the replays? >< We know accounts, we know opponents like Apocalypse - why didn't he leak the replay gogogo replay leakage pls

I was extremely impressed by his play. The speed wich he transfered 3 scvs from his main to his natural in the tvt around 2:04. His mechanics felt so fluently and not missing a beat. Especially if you consider he is only practising for a short ammount of time yet. Really impressive.

FBH between 2k~3k games played, over the span of 6months of following/playing sc2.
(Edit: For people not understanding ,my comment does not say FBH is bad, however he IS bad in comparision to what you would expect out of a progamer from him level, corresponding to how long he's played the game and how many games he's invested in.)

Flash less than 500 games played in under 10 days.


Thanks for your concern.

Why is everyone so obsessed with Flash? There aren't any articles about other BW progamers playing SC2. Isn't Soulkey alot better than Flash right now? I'd rather hear about him.


His alias is God. I don't think you really need more explanation than that.


Watching the second video, his macro is absolutely topnotch, walking across the map with marines and tanks he just has more, and this is against a high masters korea player. He'd easily make NA GM playing like that.

I want to see Jaedong next! But I'm not sure if my body's ready, it's already feeling the effects of seeing Flash play...

Does anyone think flash will start streaming? At least after Proleague is done, or will that be against Kespa rules? Since "everyone" is streaming sc2, I hope he joins in.

Someone needs to get a replay of Flash playing, and then sell it to a caster for $1000's.

First cast game of Flash is going to get some hits!

For you, yes, but for people who is actually playing the game competitively, 55% is pretty normal. For all the hype he got, this early vods is quite underwhelming.

People seem to have the most unreasonable expectations these days. Give him time.. In his interview he even stated he hasn't watched vods. What he does now is what he learned/taught himself.
