This thread is awesome but I think that Maru is better than Flash.

Anyway, I really want to see Sora in PL !

January 5 will be the date everyone shall look forward to.

KT vs Jinair. Maybe we will be blessed and see them play each other.



And who knows, if we're really lucky it might even be an Ace match

And then the game will be decided by the most anticlimatic stuff ever, like 11/11 vs CC first.

You mean Maru is a planning genius who knows that Flash likes greedy openings and abused it for a victory?

meh, the last few pages of this thread are really stupid.

On one side there are people claiming Maru is CLEARLY better player than Flash, while others claim otherwise. One side is completely disregarding Marus achievments in individual leagues, while the other is disregarding Flashs achievments in Proleague.

The fact is, Maru is coming into the SPL season as a more accomplished player in HotS. On the other hand, everybody knows how hard working Flash really is. And to be honest, there is not that much difference between the two of them as far as how good they are when you are watching their games. It is hardly surprising though, it is a long known fact, that on a good day anyone from the Korean Top30 can beat anyone else and make it look easy.

As far as Proleague goes, the format plays into Flashes strength, but imo same can be said about Maru. In the end it will all come down to how well the teams manage to prepare their players, as Proleague is about more then just a skill of the player...

What? Flash has such mediocre micro it kinda hurts me everytime i see him vs banelings, maru on the other hand plays pure bio vs a maxed toss and doesn't look all that bad with it. You can't really look at the proleague stats cause a lot of strong players didn't even play in that league. well i guess we will see soon enough what the skilllevels really are!

Flash is good but uninspiring... I feel like he is good from hard work, but lacks any meaningful amount of talent. Like, I remember maru's 3-way circular surround on rain(?) that absolutely wrecked the toss army. A beautiful engagement and exceptional micro in almost every game. Flash is good, but I've yet to see a moment from flash that makes me think- 'hooooooly shit he's good at this game'

Same thought about Flash. Flash was/is a god in BW. But those days are over.

I have seen more magnificent control, beautiful engagements and multitasking from Maru.
I stick with Maru untill Flash proves me wrong.

Maru has better micro indeed, but you cannot be the most or the second most successful TvZ player, as Flash was during several months, on the back of "mediocre micro".

Then watch his games back then and tell me he has good splitting, cause he hasn't. Widow mines and some stutter step, thats all he pretty much did and his splitting is/was mediocre, his macro is just pretty good.

1. i said he has mediocre micro, his macro is better than that.

That is a blatant setup for a 40-40 joke, but Golden isn't involved in this o.o

He wasn't taking it seriously. He's waiting to be worth 3 points in FPL so everyone will waste their time picking Rain, Parting, and Soulkey and then he will carry SKT as the ace
