Innovation seems so modest while Flash seems more serious about everything. | ||

Well, he started playing the game in 2006, but IIRC it wasn't until 2007 that he actually joined a pro team, took 4th place in Daum OSL and went on to become the youngest ever champion the next year, winning Bacchus OSL at the age of 15.

I was thinking that, the criminals in South Korea wouldn't stand a chance! Cool to see them both enjoying their rivalry but also respecting each other, both of them are fantastic players and although I hope Flash pulls ahead soon, I'll always enjoy watching them. Both of them fighting! | ||

Also http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/Double_Armory_(vs._Protoss) his play was actually fairly solid. that fact that he cheesed bisu out of the daum osl gave him his cheese reputation, but all good players throw in cheese now and again. Oh, and he started his progaming career in 2007. perhaps he was a practice partner prior. | ||

Because FlaSh hasn't won a legit SC2 tournament, in fact the only Kespa players to have managed that are RorO and Sun, RorO being the "oldest" in terms of BW activity, having played his first televised match in early 2008. Regardless who wins between Bogus and Soulkey, RorO will still hold that "title", if you will. | ||

2006 is when he started as an amateur, can't really remember when he won Courage, but he was drafted in 2007. | ||

Innovation is right as well, I think he's absolutely right that he has to prove that he is more than a "fluke". Don't get me wrong. he has shown next level play basicly throughout gsl and proleague, and I feel like he is the best player in the world right now, but if he doesn't win either GSL or Proleague, he might, JUST MIGHT drop off like some of the other next level players we've seen before. Rain rings a bell here for me - even though he didn't play nearly as good as innovation, but eh. He kinda dropped off basicly after MVP got him in GSL. | ||

Edit: Rain MIGHT be a bad example, I still feel like he has fallen off from the insane hype he received at first. But I don't feel like he really produced that big badass season/result really. So I would still argue that Innovation has to bring home a GSL/Proleague trophy in this season. | ||

<3 Flash and Bogus, I hope more terrans in PL shape up and learn from those two, I'd really like to see less games with Protosses. Terran is always a nice race to watch, even in mirrors. | ||

Here's the vod http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDNMvEVtInA pretty smart play by Flash using the refinery so that his SCVs mined out the minerals without having to return back to the base to deposit them. He broke through the minerals right as Bisu scouted it so perfect timing inline with what Innovation said that is Flash's strength. Thanks for video! Nice to see they respect each other as well. Hope Innovation takes this final although I would feel sorry for SK lol. | ||
