Highly doubt it's Life. Possibly Roro. Bogus accredited his teammate "Size" many of his previous interviews. My guess is Hyvaa, Size, and possibly Hyrda, Effort or other Kespa Zergs.

God himself couldn't stop the Innovation so this won't make a difference.


Innovation cheesed one game and Flash went mech on whirlwind.

And even if Innovation would cheese every single game in the finals, as long as he wins this doesn't matter at all.

I think I’ll be a shoo in for that most wins award even if I only end up grabbing one win every match from here on out.


I just wanted to point out that you want to use the term "Shoe-in" here, not "Shoo-in." Shoe-in comes from the phrase "One foot in the door." meaning that you are basically there but not officially. You would say "I did really well in my interview and the boss loves me. I pretty much have one foot in the door at that job." meaning that you basically have the job but not officially.

Shoo-in is a horse racing term from the 20's and 30's where the mafia would fix races, and the horses who would win were called shoo-ins.

So, basically what you said in your translation is that Flash thinks he will win the most games because the matches are fixed. What you obviously wanted to say was that he thinks he'll win the most games because he's already established an insurmountable advantage, cuz he's a boss.
In order to move forward, we must rid ourselves of that which holds us back. Check out my stream and give me tips! twitch.tv/intotheskyy

Nice to hear that Flash has helped out Soulkey. If they both have such stellar partners to practice with, it should be an epic final! I am a little bit scared for Soulkey, still, but I'm a tad more hopeful now.

Thanks a lot for translating, Seeker

I think most KeSPA players do that, btw. Don't know if that institutional habit applies in the eSF world as well.

The idea is that they get to practice with top League performers than just their average in house teammate.

Thank you. I did not know this.

Let's not bring up match fixing scandals now, shall we?

Anything else you would like to say?

(This is a literal translation. I have no idea what Flash said here) Lately, I’ve been living without a mentality line (laughs). I was struggling because I caught a cold while the seasons were changing, so I hope everyone will watch out for colds. These days, I’m feeling the lack of exercise. Since the season for exposing oneself is coming, I hope everyone will exercise real hard (laughs). (This last sentence, I’m not 100% sure but I think Flash is saying that he hopes everyone will work out and exercise and look good since it’s going to get hot and people are going to be wearing more revealing clothing and exposing themselves more)


Well, at least we know where he got his ID.

shoo-in is still used in this context, so his use is fine regardless of the origin of the phrase

Whenever Flash talks about balance, he makes it always sound like the other races have it better than Terrans....lol go look at all his interviews. smh.


"Terran has the advantage but Soulkey is rather strong against INnoVation so we’ll find out when the time comes."


As of late, Terrans have a really good win percentage vs Zergs.

"During practice, I lose the most against Zergs. Honestly, at first, I didn’t think Zerg was a good race but I think they’re progressed forward a lot lately. I can’t help but think that maybe Zergs will be the superior ones in just a little bit. These days, Zergs have found out how to play against widowmines (laughs)."

Anyway, every progamer complains about balance against the other races once in a while so I guess its normal.


He's not complaining about balance, though. He clearly says that terran has the advantage right now, but thinks that zerg maybe has more potential.

I think that flash is saying that he's been chimping down on his efforts because he's been sick and, thus, unable to give it his all in both practice and play. Since he hasn't been in his best shape ("condition") he's been freestyling. With this in mind, his subsequent comment makes alot more sense (talking about wanting to exercise and hoping for the good health of others). Koreans also seem to view sickness as a binary state but one which has at least as much to do with the mind as the body.
