I hope he’ll get destroyed tho.
Shit talking Has that much while he didn’t even get to see a wcs finals is ridiculous.

Sure, MaNa and Has are not top tier usually, but they managed to be clutch at the right time and he should respect that.



They both eventually were defeated by the likes of Serral. Now guess who defeated Lambo in the semis twice. It´s okay if you don´t like the shit talk about Has, but you bringing up the "wcs finals"-argument seems to me ridiculous, too. I love to see Has play, but he surely overperformed at Valencia. He is a gambler and in Valencia his stars were well alligned. Lambo showed some great potential and got to two semis, which is not to underestimate.
Lambo is just being honest, i´m baffled by the amount of hate he gets for that. His "shit talk" is like the purr of a baby cat compared to the "greats" of sc2 :D I hope he shows some great games and gets to enjoy Blizzcon as much as possible. Man, i´m hyped for that event.

Not sure what you're interpreting into that tweet, he's showing how Maru is 42-0 against zerg on ladder and saying he's looking forward to playing against the best terran in the world, basically.

kid maru.. come on bro. he neglected that he is kid "god" maru.

All this bashing that people are talking about, I really don't see any more than the comment about Has being a free win.
He says Korean zerg don't know HOW to play ZvZ, not that they were bad. It is the style of play he comments, not the skill of the players. Lambo perceives the style to be less than optimal.
Regarding ZvZ, he also says that he think it's possible to beat Serral, not that he'll definitively beat Serral.
Lambo says that he has a shot at winning BlizzCon. That does not mean that he is better than the others, just that there is a real chance that it might happen. Lambo thinks that the skill difference between players is small enough for upsets to happen often. He even comments that it is better to face the best players in the groups instead of in the single elimination format because there are fewer games per match in the groups. Fewer games means higher probability of upset, according to Lambo.
Lambo says that Neeb is the worst opponent for ZvP, since Neeb's playstyle is good vs Lambo. Lambo feels that standard protoss is one of his weak points in ZvP.
That was followed by a comments of Lambo not being particularly worried about Classic and sOs. This is in relation to the other players at the Global Finals. There are 15 players, one of which Lambo thinks he can win vs any day, Has, who uses the protoss playstyle that Lambo is most confident vs and he considers Has to be a bad enough player for Lambo to consistently win. So, say 14 players. Lambo says Maru, TY and Neeb are the worst opponents for him. They are also in his group and he needs to consider them going into the tournament. 11 players left. 4 of them are zerg players. 2 Koreans, with their suboptimal playstyles, and two world players, which Lambo thinks he has a real shot at beating. 7 players left... Do you see what I'm trying to say? Lambo has priorities.
There are two things to consider here:
1 Lambo thinks that the skill of the players are even enough for upsets to happen
2 With the 3 big foes in his group, the rest should be of lower priority. Why worry about the second biggest fish in the pond when the biggest fish is right in front of you?

Could someone, please, point out the trash talking? I honestly can't see it and I would like to know what you people notice that I miss.

This is SC2 section and Flash wasn't never godlike in SC2. So don't put your god over our god. Also I personally am into polytheism as I acknowledge the Sun god of summer too
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

When i watch Maru win tournaments I always think he might lose, he just might... but he doesnt.

When I watch Flash dismantle players play BW, I get depressed. It s just unfair and cruel

Shame none of the players he'll play at blizzcon are from EU.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

When I watched Flash in SC2 he was losing quite regularly for a person who was supposed to be that good player, it was unfair and cruel

Because bw is more balanced and competitive. SC2 depends more on the meta and blizzard crazy changes. Also, the cheese-timing in SC2 builds are harder to stop than the bws ones.

Anyway, Flash trained hard for bw and Maru did it for SC2. Both are impressive, but Flash is a legend and Maru is winning just right now in this state of the game (and seems unstoppable)

Pressure!
