Wasn't terran considered too weak to be competitive at one point during the beginning of BW?

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.

Masters is filled with noobs, yes, even on Korea.

right.... righhhhht

Yep. Boxer was originally a Toss.

That said Flash is talking about the most successful race consistently without any down periods.

I feel really sad when the guy says he's still playing even though his wrists are hurting. This is nuts but I am glad that he's being really honest regarding game balance.

Seeing as how he missed the first ~2 years of SC2, I can see why he thinks that Terran is getting the short end of the stick with recent patches. He missed the memo on how they won everything early on and actually deserved the nerfs lol.

I think we'll hear that a lot from BW players though, who don't actually know the backstory of SC2.

It was kind of funny reading "I'm a noob... A is OP, B is OP, C is UP, D is UP..." lol.

Glad he's becoming obsessed with SC2 the same way he is with BW

Its just dumb to have both games in the same competition, i'm sorry...why on Earth would you do that? I could see an exhibition of SC2 on the side ...as a transitional effort...but choose one or the other, seriously....What next? LoL/Sc2/BW freaking e-triathalons? Someone really dropped the ball here...

Its quite ironic that Flash revolutionized TvP back in BW with his Double Armory style of gameplay as a counter to lategame protoss, and he complains about imbalance. I can forsee him to show us how to beat Protosses in late game TvP within a couple of months

Notice how he implied he's enjoying SC2 despite its balance flaws?

It's like he recognizes that it'll be fixed eventually or something.

Nice interview, Flash don't change race, we all know protoss is op
I play 1v1 SC2 because I've heard there are people who are currently better than I - and that pisses me off.

He can fix it by swapping race like he said.

What are some difficulties for you?
I think there's a problem with the balance. Protoss is overpowered so I hope they balance it out.

What exactly about Protoss is overpowered?
Everything. Forcefields are OP, gateways are OP too... More importantly there are continuous patches but it seems like Terran is the only one that doesn't get buffs. I'm worried because they're on a downward trend.


Flash has spoken! I am really excited to see what Flash will accomplish in SC2.

I think Blizzard just needs to buff EMP back to what it was and make snipe how QXC said it should be, 50 base damage and -15 vs massive units like Broodlords and Corrupters.
