ROFL 2 days of practice and he stomps everyone going into the final. When I think of all these foreigners who were practicing the beta for months and were supposed to turn the tide after everyone switched to HotS .... I guess some things never change ...

Can't deny i hope he will regain his power and winning mentality he had in SC1 will carry over to SC2. He is one of the most hard working progamers in know

I think the amount of experience playing on stage and having to think strategically for so many years shines through a couple months of practice. So I wouldn't harp on the foreigners to much. Plus Ret did really well.

Would love to see him in more tournaments, it must've been hard to unravel the years of ingrained timings and reactions of defensive Terran and rebuild it into that offensive play. I wonder how he would be if Terran of SC2 was closer to Terran of BW in terms of general gameplans.

When you watch the production tab and his sense of timing, it's just ridiculous. Very fun games.

Thanks for the translation; great interview.

To think that he only practiced HotS for 2 days and made it to the finals is crazy...

Two days of practice? BS. He must have a hyperbolic time chamber, or at least be able to slow time itself.

Such a boss hahaha. Flash is truly a genius among geniuses, and the scary part is - he doesn't believe it! Which is why he keeps pushing and pushing himself by practicing, because he's never truly satisfied. Even with his controversial "enlightenment" interview, he was always keenly aware that there was always something to improve on, something to perfect.

Funnily enough, this also reminds me of Allen Iverson's infamous practice rant during a presscon. Flash is his complete opposite.

This is an amazing interview and every foreigner should read it and strive to be what Flash showed in this interview. With this kind of attitude I an strongly confident he will be the best sometime this year.

I guess it's easier to change up your play to an offensive style of play when you're already have the mechanics to execute it than going from some kind of aggression god to a turtle player (see Bisu). I wonder how it would look if Flash played sc2 Protoss.

Looking forward to a long lasting Life vs Flash rivalry. The mindgames alone should be epic.

The problem is that the mechanics required to play protoss in sc2 are completely different from any type of bw mechanics. Sc2 terran mechanics on the other hand are somewhat comparable to bw mechanics (regardless of which race you played).

Flash is awesome.

Is the two days story completely honest, though? He did qualify for the tournament during the beta, after all.

He qualified from getting top 4 in the previous MLG.

Things just were not the same after he changed it to some other song... I wish that they played this before his matches in every tournament.
