If flash came to Canada omg....
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

He's just trying to fit into the SC2 scene.

Idra would agree with Flash's opinions on protoss.
Starcraft 2 was designed to have a best race. You play the worst one.

The transition period is just such a weird time. We'll probably see neither very good games of BW nor SC2 in SPL. And the OSL is tainted also. I would have preffered a clean cut, just move on to SC2 when it is inevitable anyway

Toss is doing the worst it seems. Def not Terran underpowered, I think it is his play style is why he complains about Toss. This is from a Zerg but Terran doesn't need a buff to balance but I don't know TvP. Maybe Toss a debuff but terran is already a pain to beat without gosu drops like Flash does as a Zerg.

What?

Protoss is doing the worst?

cool interview, even flash whines about T late game!!

He actually said he has problem defending all-ins, he commented on the ghost nothing more.


Read again.

I guess I am too stupid to read properly but I still only find the comment about ghosts and all-ins.
But honestly it is not that important, Terrens have proved they can defeat Protoss and Zerg just got buffed a bit, the balance is still changing and new strategies are still evolving. With the HotS release everything will change anyway.

I bet he purposefully lost 400 games and dropped from rank 1 gm to troll the interviewer.

Are there any tournaments you want to compete in specifically?
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.

The link to this interview is now going to be my only response anytime someone accuses me of terran QQ when I try to reasonably discuss balance. Flash has spoken, your argument is invalid (lol)

Anyways, awesome awesome awesome. I am so excited about this. And lets hope Flash brings alot of his Korean BW fans with him. He seems enthusiastic about SC2 and always talks about how he has been enjoying playing it. I hope that attitude is infectious

Awesome interview, thanks for sharing! Can't wait to start seeing the BW players get into tournaments. I really can't wait to see what happens with the gap in skills between BW pros and sc2 pros when HoTS drops.

Everyone says Protoss is imba, when they first come into the game.
They look so overwhelming, when they win the battles.
SC2 Archon needs "Terrible, terrible damage" as one of it's quotes.

Everyone loves Canada.

Hanging out with ChRh was a lot of fun. Great guy.

Anyway, I'm sure his thoughts will change over time.

GSL this season but in most all pro tournaments have toss doing poorly lately. Flash isn't mid league is why I say that

Protoss is OP, here's proof - http://sc2earnings.com/

I get the feeling Flash won't be dominant in SC2. There are his wrist problems and large time requirements to get to the top combined with eventual military obligations. Makes me even more sad for JD
