EPTFrom this FPVOD, does anyone have any idea?
@5:10min probably gives the best view for it.

This part made me sad not because it sounded sad, but because I felt exactly the same. | ||

What i have learned is: If you want to be at the very top, you have to enjoy the game and be 100% focused. That is not a given anymore for Flash, SC2 is his job and he wants to meet girls (this is not to be underestimated!) and play other games This won't change in the future and that is why you won't ever see Flash dominate again, I can assure you this. (It's amazing how good he is nonetheless) | ||

(It's amazing how good he is nonetheless) You're half-right, but I think the fact that his problem stems from motivation means that it can be resolved. I think KT need to provide Flash with some serious competition, the KT roster is geared entirely towards Proleague and no one can challenge Flash for the ace position (if someone like Stats plays an ace match they're still viewed as Flash's right hand). Their lack of activity in individual leagues, and near-total dependence on Flash in team leagues means that this isn't fun for him any more, he's actually got the job of carrying his team. I think if Flash could be given a chance to develop a rivalry and play in more tournaments, and his teammates step it up big time, then he'll be dominating again in no time. | ||

They've already improved (compare the 2010 blizzard "Do you even want chat channels?" to the current 2013 blizzard who are more active in the community) but still it needs improvement. I would hate to see a legend such as Flash quit SC2 because of blizzard's piss poor management of their esports game. Don't you mean you would hate to see a legend such as Flash quit SC2 because he can only win with Terran in BW? It's funny how Terran in SC2 have all the same early game advantages such as denying scouting, repair, expanding in main with CC then float... yet require Terran be aggressive, and Flash suddenly can't win as much as before. I don't think he's well rounded and never was he just was the perfect turtle to play Terran in BW. Sorry fanboys. | ||

He was known as a cheezer early in his career, then developed a fully macro/micro based game based on unique openings and timings where he would be ahead in upgrades for like 2 minutes. He would also knew how to counter every unit to every race. Flash could be the only one that could be a random player and win OSL TBHWY | ||

Hence all the talk of Protoss in SC2 being closer to what Terran was in BW than the actual SC2 Terran is. But no, fuck reading comprehension, let's just throw a wild edgy post out there instead. | ||

I guess it's just not a mech army until mass siegetanks can beat skytoss, Broodlord infestor, and swarmhosts. Hey Blizzard, can we just get Terran designed so they are completely unbreakable for 40 minutes, and then have a slow pushing tank deathball supported by anti-air that builds out of factories so we don't have to scout either? B/c that's what us Terrans want... the ability to win against any composition with tanks. We are just bored with bio... killing stuff fast is so boring. We don't want no stinking harass. We want to push up the front, kill everything in the way, float our CCs above our army, invulnerable style. | ||

So we should see him play soon enough (but GSL has so many toss this season... and Flash's TvP is not hot (well, there are not many terrans with hot TvP :D). | ||

From ideology sc2 toss and mech bw t look pretty darn similar to me: gather powerful army and proceed to do what you know how to do . | ||

Hey Blizzard, can we just get Terran designed so they are completely unbreakable for 40 (overcharge,forcefield)minutes, and then have a slow pushing tank(collosus) deathball supported by anti-air that builds out of factories so we don't have to scout(overcharge + photon cannon in min lines) either? B/c that's what us Terrans want... the ability to win against any composition with tanks(immortals/archons). We are just bored with bio... killing stuff fast(all ins) is so boring.

We want to push up the front, kill everything in the way, float our CCs above our army, invulnerable style(timewarp+collosi+storm). I guess that explains why so many terrans switch to protoss, you even get to all in if you want short games and you get to choose between several not just 11/11. | ||
