Part of me thinks "if only he could have lived up to his hype and BW reputation in SC2" and part of me thinks "it really shows how difficult high level SC2 is that Flash wasn't near the top".

Nobody will ever forget the Flash face though.

This sucks! Hoping the best for him.

Now I'll never forget the moment I walked past Flash at MLG Dallas and I was going to ask him for his autograph but didn't have my sharpie

At least I got to see him IRL

I think most people know I wasn't a huge Flash fan (although sometimes I could be persuaded to root for him) but I really thought he brought a lot to the scene. Seeing other people so excited when he won IEM Toronto actually made me excited (even though I was hoping he would lose haha).

I wish him the best of luck and I hope he really does one day come back and coach for KT!

I'm conflicted if I want to see him back in BW or not. On one hand it will be awesome for the competition there, maybe we will see more epic chapters of Flash vs Bisu. But on the other hand I dont want him to play BW and just retire from professional gaming altogether instead of giving half-honest reasons to step away from SC2 only to be back to BW in 2 weeks like everyone else before him.

Flash played some of the most beautiful, flawless Starcraft I have ever seen. I'll never forget just how unbeatable he looked during his prime, or how insanely exciting it was whenever he and Jaedong would end up in a match together.

gg to the Ultimate Weapon. Thanks for all the memories!

I mean... a lot of people were speculating that this was going to happen... but still... to read this...

FUCK I just hope he will go play BW or something, I don't want this to be the last we see of FlaSh as a player
My heroes: Jangbi, Bisu, Stork and BeSt for BW, Rain, Zest and Stats for SC2! Need a better Signature tbh...

It's not that the game is more difficult. The skillset required to constantly win at the top is slightly different in the two games.

Not surprising...

Welcome back to BW

http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/485254-flash-interview-unedited

How do you feel about SC2 progamers retiring and returning to BW on Afreeca? Is that something you would consider?

Flash: Hmmm, well, I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing. I don’t know about streaming on Afreecatv but I do intend on playing BW again later on. A lot of fans are wanting that from me.

Jaedong, your move. FanTaSy and Stork should follow. BW renaissance~

Fanta is relatively good in sc2 and stork is player coach no? JD i agree with
