We can't not talk about the Season 1 final. How did you feel at the time?
I'm not as affected by losing as people might think. It only makes me angry at the time and then I tend to forget it immediately. I cried because I was touched by the fans, but I'm okay. Even though I lost they all cheered "Lee Young Ho Fighting". I cried because of the fans. It was the first time I felt something like that. Because I prepared very hard and did everything in my power I have no regrets. I accepted defeat.

This gem of a quote has been lost amidst all the SC2 comments and hype. This mindset makes me more excited for more Flash than anything really.

Hahah, that was my thought also. With the patch speed that is what it is, almost every sc2 player is going to be bitching about balance at some point.

Except Madfrog, he never bitched..quite the opposite and even when Zerg were clearly UP.

A bit sad that a player like Flash talks already about balance :\

He is entitled to opinions and say whatever he wants about balance. it is TL and the community that blows it out of proportions.

maybe foreign pros like TriMaster/desrow lulz

I dont regard desrow as a pro because he gets money from his parents, not for him playing the game.


my parents haven't paid a single dime for me to come to korea. They gave me a pair of boxers and socks before I left.. everything was paid by myself from coaching/streaming revenue. Please do not spread bullshit. Thanks ^_ ^

I'm not commenting on balance or the weight of Flash's statements, but to all the people saying that Flash is way too new to have legitimate assertions, you are at least partially wrong. True, he hasn't had nearly as much time experimenting with the game as current SC2 pros, but he is rank 4 masters and that 1 rep is of him vs. Kawaii. Kawaii regularly get's matched with GM's, so IMO it's safe to assume that Flash is very near and approaching SC2 pro gamer skill. True, his record isn't amazing, but his MMR is VERY solid. To reach this rank with so little time, while playing BW, is nothing short of extraordinary.


I do agree with you here, only to say that it doesn't really matter where he stands right now. Important is where he's going with it. People this guy is a workhorse. Once he wants it, he will go for it in a matter only very few other professionals are even able to do. And he's been doing it for years now. He's able to carry a team by himself, has played championships and knows the feeling of win and defeat very well. He's -the- all round skill player. The only thing that I'm worried about is his wrist. Everything else will come naturally.

Have no doubt. They want to rise as a team first and foremost and that is the optimal situation. Once they reach the levels of current pros, shit will start to explode because of the philosophy of the BW pro teams.

Flash FIGHTING!!! ^o^

Toss is so OP that Bisu decided to switch to Terran.

Why the Bisu's interview was not in "community news and headlines"?

Why the poll, wich is the most OP race, was inserted after the Terran nerfes, and not before?

The answer: TL is clearly Terran.

Two stupid posts in a row. Gratz!

Do a little bit of research first...or a least be around long enough to see how things work before stating incorrect facts.

The part about the Bisu interview was not stupid at all. If you know where that is, post it or let people know about it and don't make statements like that.

Flash is an idiot. He doesn't understand the game then blames it on "Protoss OP", when Protoss hasn't won any major tournaments in months. Plus, what race has won the last two MLGs? Terran. Terran is not the weakest, he doesn't even know this game is played yet and yet he judges it like he is the best at it. He may have been the best at BW but he is not the best at this.


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.

This is EXACTLY what I am talking about, nobody else seems to get it. I understand Flash is a god at BW, but he is NOT a god at SC2. Right now, he is just a high korean masters player - there are many out there, yet everyone takes his word over others because he was the best at BW. Well, let me tell all of you something - this is NOT BW. He admitted he doesn't understand this game and doesn't know it and such, then goes and calls Protoss OP when statistically it is the weakest race (least tournament wins, hasn't had any tournament wins in months, etc).

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.

I love you for saying what everyone else is too blinded by Flash to say.

Right now he's about as relevant in the sc2 scene as Michael Jordan was in baseball. Perhaps he should be focusing on practice instead of whining

This is so true. The Koreans take their fans very seriously and are thankful for all the fame they receive. Foreigners seem to bask in the fame more than they appreciate playing the game to win.

You are right, that quote shows how awesome FlaSh really is. But the jackass sc2 community can only bitch and moan about his protoss comments, which is his rightful opinion. This community only cares about drama. I remember when that Orb stuff happened...that thread had like 200 pages. A GSL/MLG article would be lucky to get 1/4 of that. Pretty sad.
