Why do u like bio Flash, whyyyyy?

Probably because he's realized that Terran Bio is one of the best scaling unit compositions when it comes to speed and control.

It's much easier for him to learn the mechanics and get fast with bio than it is for him to develop the same starsense he had in Brood War and be able to make the crucial decisions that playing mech forces in some situations.

Yeah I wasn't serious but I'm still waiting for the day when someone figures out how to play mech TvP properly and the crying about how t1 units have a hard time against a protoss t3 army stops.

It's really almost impossible because the Immortal hardcounters any sort of mech based play.


Imagine a world where Terran also needed a variety of t1 + t2 + t3 units or the very least where they use marines or even Hellions to focus down the Immortals. O_O

Then it would be dismissed as an A-moving deathball lol.

I'm so happy Flash is coming into the scene with controversial statements. So tired of the quiet pros of today who don't say anything in fear of receiving backlash. Flash is awesome!!!

He can't be a complete noob and masters. Being top 2% of the game on the hardest server disqualifies any statement he makes as being noob. He probably means he feels noob compared to how he feels in BW.



He's top 8 master. 92% of the top 2% are worse than that. That makes him top 0.16%. more than 10 times as good as top 2%.
Tears soaks each hand the dealer's dealt. But time taught me how to see every second as heaven even when they're perfectly disguised as hell.

How are your SC2 skills at the moment?
I think I'm a complete noob. I'm really not that good so I'm still at the stage of learning. Right now I'm in Master league (star icon). I think ladder points are more important than stars. Before the first season of Pro League started last year I got to Master league in 4 to 5 days. It was strangely easy back then. It probably would have been better if I had kept playing then, but after focusing on the season and picking it up way later it's difficult.


4 to 5 days to get masters in KR and still think your a noob...?
wow ..... just wow ....

About his balance statements. He probably gets his biggest feedback from team mates, so it is very possible there is some concensus on protoss being hard to beat. Also, as he said, he hasn´t viewed current SC2 pros so much and therefore probably isn´t to knowledgable about their solutions to very high P plays. So his comments are surely to be regarded as first impressions from a very talented player.

Switching back and forth from SC2 to BW must be a complete nightmare... I agree that asking that of the players is too much.

Still, pumped :D This(not just flash but others) should increase the skill, and therefore the entertainment level significantly.

I've never flowed BW but I know Flash is like God or even better, so I'm very glad to see an interview of him about sc2 . Thanks a lot.
By the way I just love his modesty.
It's good to be back
