Here is an image from a news article.

[image loading]

This picture is from the Team 8 House. The one on the far right (I think it's Baby. He selected Terran) is rank 3 masters. It seems as if most BW players are in high masters right now.

For someone who is considered the God of BW, SC2 should be easy, unless the game actually doesn't allow the separation from gods to mortals..

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

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.



Are you dumb or what? BW players are practicing both SC2 and SC1:BW and do you know how damn tough it is to focus
on 2 games that are so different in terms of graphics,gameplay and strategy. Even IMMVP said that it is unfair for BW players
because they have to focus on both BW and SC2 for the upcoming Proleague. Don't be naive and speak some sense please.

Flash getting a 55% winrate is pretty good for someone who just started playing the game recently and practicing both BW and SC2.

Don't make excuses for him. We all know 55% is nothing for a pro SC2 player. Maybe we'll see better in the coming months, but hailing him as a god already just makes you a blind BW fanboy.

I'm really looking forward to what you're gonna say now.

Nestea never takes ladder serious. He used builds such as proxy hatch at MC third on Cloud Kingdom and slow push with spine crawlers and stuffs....


Flash has as good winratio as HuK,MC,JookTo,GanZi,ForGG for example I think Flash is doing good.

Edit: And as far as i know they ladder pretty seriously except MC maybe

they have much different MMRs. and not to mention from watching the game.. his game sense and strategy is very weak.. i'm actually surprised if this really is his acct.

How do you know Flash is taking ladder seriously then?

He might not dominate now, but in 6 months... That's like over 5k games if he plays 30 games per day which should be something regular, I do think he will be at least top 8 in the world.

or unless, you know, SC2 is a fucking hard game also, and not very similar to BW at all.

Compared to SC1 SC2 should be mechanically much easier. But unfortunately it is easier for everyone else as well. And I guess it has been proven by millions of not so succesful players such as myself that it is still a real game with a skill cap way above the average (in fact it is infinite). So Flash will need to prove himself in SC2 before he can be called a god in this game.

How flipping mad are BW fans right now?

Flash says he likes the game and is obviously finding it reasonably challenging that he comaplins about balance.

Just give flash sometime. Everyone is soo quick to judge his game play. His decision making is solid and we will only expect more in the near future. We also have to put this into effect that he is top master in a short period of time and the fact that he hasn't really witnessed every other stategies that are available. I just hope he will stick with terran!

I can make a game horribly imbalanced and call that depth or good difficulty. Not really a compliment to have an imbalanced game. Also hide your trolling a bit more.

oh how people seem to forget how hard of a game BW actually is.

it's quite simply absurd to assume the current skill cap in sc2 is the same as the one of BW. BW is endlessly harder, and SC2's actually pretty easy and casual (especially regarding macro mechanics). everybody who's played both games knows it.

as for this vod, it's everything but impressive. the only impressive thing would be to assume that he's only been playin for 3weeks, which i strongly doubt.
still, it's Flash, and it turns me on to see him on the newer scene of esport. i just hope he doesn't get owned by late game toss gayness in his first major tournament, cause that would most definitely make me break something :-)

Why would it be any fun in a strategy game if a persons ability to win was most strictly based on fighting the games mechanics? There is no skill cap in strategy.

Do SC2 guys know why Flash is so good at BW?

It's not (only) because his mechanics, but mainly because his understanding of the game. That is his main strenght, but also his main weakness. Proof of that is that TvP played during last SPL in which he lost because he cancelled a single turret.

When I say SC2 should be easy for him its not because I'm saying BW is strategically superior to SC2, but because he's a genius who understands the game he is playing.

For someone who needs to play TWO games competitively, and practice both, he's doing great.

Why are people bashing him for being bad already?

Lol I think you're right. He clearly has way more than 3 weeks under his belt. But even so, it will be interesting to see how he can do against the SC2 pros.
