If Flash swiches race I'll quit Starcraft. No point in watching if my favorite player is not playing Terran anymore.

I don't know what tournaments there are yet. However I want to go to Canada sometime. My friend lives in Canada so I've heard a lot about it, and I've always wanted to go.


Someone make a huge tournament in Vancouver please, I need to meet God.

Sigh Flash did you have to go and get involved in the stupid balance discussion, it's not like he has even played the game long enough to know what is truly OP or not. Remove force fields for toss and that race is completely unplayable.

i think the reason why parting's style pvt is so good, its because u can't tank chargelots and dodge storms perfectly at the same time, terran needs unit to tank chargelots so they can focus dodging / splitting / emp incoming storms. i hope hellion transform could solve this problem in Hots.

To all the SC2 brothers out there, Flash saying himself a noob is just an typical asian culture for being slightly over humble. BUT, Dude he gets into high master rank in just 4 or 5 days, PLUS ITS KR SERVER FOR GOD SAKE. How many of us here can do that? i myself might not be able to get to master in KR in my whole life.

So u still believe in that Flash-is-a noob-in-SC2-so-why-the-F**k-is-he-complaining-about-balance shit?

If Protoss is OP then choose Protoss Flash. How can you complain about balance while you spent your entire BW career playing the strongest race in that game ?

He didn't play Protoss in BW.


Apart from the "Protoss op" i think is important to note that he did not talk about units, or unit stats, but more about design problems. The same design problems like warp in, FF, colosuss (encouraging death balls), etc have been evident and criticized since BETA. They are bad and need to go, just wish Blizzard would admit they fucked up in designing Protoss and do something about it instead of making things like the replicant, carrier MK2, etc.


You are kidding right? This game would not be competitive if it was as broken as you make it out to be.



Interesting interview. Flash playing SC2 is beyond epic.


lol? I think a lot of people would argue how "competitive" SC2 is compared to many other games.

Is this a thinly veiled "Terran UP" QQ post like most of your others?


Are you really this butthurt that Flash called your race OP? No. It had nothing to do with balance. I already said I'm done with balance whine. I'm surprised you didn't know that since you seem to stalk my post history (kinda scary TBH, do I need to worry?). SC2 is much less competitive than BW, for example.

Don't flatter yourself. I remember your particular brand of illogic from the TvP thread. And no, I'm not butthurt; just tired of unsubtle digs at the so-called competitiveness of Sc2, especially from one like yourself.

I think some people are overlooking the fact that Flash is not a casual player with a 9 to 5 job to go to every day. He plays SC for a living and he didnt just pick the game up last week. He's been playing on and off for a long time and has put a lot of games under his wing already.

Now we just need a interview with Bisu! :D
But yeah being a Korean gamer is very imba. If you're a non-korean gamer you have to balance your game playing with earning money and your real life. If you're Korean you just sit around playing games all day eating 2 cent ramyun and becoming gosu.

sc2 balance is a joke compared to bw balance. BW pros didnt used to complain about balance like they do in SC2.

I'm relieved he speaks on the TvP thing. I mean there's obviously a bit more to it than "forcefields and gateways being op" but I do think there's a serious issue with the match up - especially late game. Watching Demuslim's stream the other day he went through a few glaringly obvious problems and I think It's kind of embarrassing that Blizzard are content with Terran being on a back foot instead of wanting an even playing field.

I love how the pathetic protoss are trying to say they know better than flash...


Flash words :"Im a noob" ; " I'm currently going all-in on SC2 because it's my first time playing. "

I can image the scene. Flash go for 3 rax allin or 111 or a shit similar and a random opponent in the ladder own "the king of bw" cause he has more experience than him and know how to hold this kind of playstyle.

Every players in masters (the current league of flash) can hold an all in if scouted properly.

The fact that Flash was the one of the greatest Bw players doesn't mean that is a SC2 guru at the moment

Yeah, im a pathetic protoss.

No, but you have pathetic reading comprehension.

He meant he's practicing nothing but SC2 at the moment, he isn't all-ining every game.

Yay! Thanks Flash for stating what everyone else is too afraid to say because they don't want to get bashed. Finally terran gets an outspoken figurehead to talk about balance like IdrA was with zerg. xD

A Race is not better for winning individual tournaments.

Watch Proleague winrates, Protoss winrates arent bad, they are favored in PvT.
