The funny thing is, despite me not buying into all his hype, he's more than capable of making such comments about balance in comparison to the vast majority of people on this forum. He's atleast top Korean masters, which has to be greater than the average skill of posters on this forum whining about balance one way or another.

Every T pro, even KR are saying that P is OP. Every time they're asked a question about balance, they say P is OP. Now, the first thing BW pros are saying is that P is OP.

This makes me sad. Wrist problems, a new (and less balanced) game, not enough time to learn it, having to play two games at once... it seems like the universe is conspiring to make flash a mortal. I guess this just confirms what I've known all along in other contexts... there is no god. =( =( =(

That just degraded him about 5 levels in my book. Claims hes a noob and still complains about balance like that. Jesus didnt he learn anything about professionalism through all years of BW?

lol Toss is getting so much hate from the other races, who are arguing with each other who is the weakest.

And I'm with him in hoping that when HotS comes out it levels the playing field a bit.


I loved the part where he was talking about all the things that were OP. I can see him playing his first game against protoss "Oh god, WHY? Why can you do that? You couldn't do any of this stuff in BW! Why can you make a wall any time you want? Why can your dragoons teleport? Why did zealots just come out of that umbrella?"

Though I am sure BW protoss players are asking "Why are marines good? What is there rocket that keeps landing on their minerals? Who is that large man with the marines that shoots rockets? OH GOD! WHY IS HE SO FAST? WHY IS THE DROPSHIP HEALING HIM?"

This is one of the best posts I've seen in a while. God damn umbrella warp-prism made me laugh far harder than it should have.

I lol'd hard I can imagine any pro that switches, instantly thinking that his original race is the absolute worst. Someone need to nudge flash and tell him to land some mules

Did not expect Flash to comment on balance.
Maybe he can/will change his mind once he is more familiar with the game.

I am only in low masters, so i will just leave the balance discussion to more experienced minds :D


I hope he was just throwing people off because unless he just can't adapt his playstyle there is no reason for him to say Terran is underpowered enough for him to even consider changing races. If he thinks Terran is horrible then he really hasn't played that much or every other pro missed a lot.
