i guess you're not alllowed to express your opinion, even after saying you're a noob at the game!

It's not that - it's that he says he is a noob THEN starts telling what needs to be balanced and what is unbalanced.


Yup, i'm sure he, like TL balance whiners, has posted furiously on korean starcraft 2 forums complaining about the current state of the game. Probably has sent millions of emails to BNET to whine about it as well. Add in rage quitting his games and throwing a pancy fit when he loses to a 6 gate.

Its his life and his job, if he feels some aspects are unfair, why isn't he allowed to say it when someone asks him about it? Its not like he is actively lobbying for a change like a significant portion of TL forummers. By your logic, a large group of us on TL are idiots. Maybe even retarded since we are not in master league and we feel that some aspects of the game is imbalanced. Why hang out in this forum then?

less than 20 posts, i sense a troll.



1) He didn't compare Flash to Battle.net forum trolls. So, way to overreact in that first rebuttal.

2) Actually, I would say a lot of posters on TL are idiots, including myself. All of the pros say so as well.

Flash can in fact be too much of a noob to be going around spouting that Protoss is OP and Terran is underpowered. Why can;t he be? Could he go into Supreme Command 2 and start yelling that Race 3 is underpowered after playing at the game for a month and be taken seriously simply because he's Flash? This isn't SC:BW. Flash can be wrong.

EDIT: I'm not saying Flash is right or wrong. I'm merely standing up and saying that Flash might be wrong, like the original poster said. He's not necessarily wrong because he said something you guys don't like.

What do you expect from someone who just started? FFs are what keep toss from dyeing 90% of the game. And he thinks terren is the weakest lul just give it time.

God changes to Zerg. Zerg suddenly OP. Oh god I can see it coming.

If he seriously considers changing races in HotS, my mind will be blown. I can't see him as anything but Terran.

I am so excited right now. His play looked pretty solid from the VOD thread also going on right now. The fact he is loving the game and staying up until "4 or 5" in the morning.... watch out current SC2ers

So whose opinion should we take? Flash is wrong in your opinion, but that dosen't mean others think hes wrong? So if you have a different opinion, i could go around calling you an idiot?

But yeah, i'm probably overreacting because it feels like a troll.

Great interview! Hopefully Flash will get better as time goes by. I will probably be cheering for him in the future tournaments!

The best STARCRAFT player. You made the point perfectly. Hes the best STARCRAFT player not STARCRAFT 2 player.

The guy says Toss and Zerg OP and he plays Terran, that sounds like a bronze leauge nub statement

I'm glad Flash said it, but will most likely not change anything because of the way Blizzard tries to balance their game (going with data from all leagues). Because there has been a genius like MKP around lately people still think Terran is fine and use this as an argument and the Blizzard balance team obviously doesn't understanding anything either (see latest patch). What they don't realize is the amount of skill involved in winning with Terran when compared to the other two races. Instead of having stronger units the longer the game goes on like with Z and P we have to make-do with the same ones and try to out-smart and out-micro the opponent (with Bio). And if we go Mech we sacrifice so much offensive capabilities/mobility. This is why most top Terrans feel like they are on a timer every time they play. ForGG just said the exact same thing that Flash did in this interview just yesterday. Is he also just frustrated because he is a noob? No.

Christ.

Anyone who has played SC2, or watched SC2, for more than one month has a more educated opinion than Flash.

No one bowed down the Michael Jordan a month after he swung his first Baseball bat. No matter how "godly" he may be in BW, Flash is still an inexperienced rookie in SC2.

So much ignorance. He can already beat SC2 pro gamers.

Also, he is in Masters on the Korean server, which is very comparable to NA/EU Grandmaster, and no one here with one month of play would be able to achieve.

MC says exactly the opposite, that Terrans are too easy to play.

i wish this forum would have a sub section dedicated to only balance discussion. that way i dont have to read a bunch of blow hards complaining about an evolving meta game. Flash's opinion is flash's opinion. take it with a grain of salt. he is playing terran. Similarly, Mitt Romney would probably cry that democrats are OP and republicans need a buff...
