So true, he's the definition of a consummate professional.

Things did not go accordingly - Flash had to keep winning, haha.
What the fuck kind of awful loser mindset is that from the coach. They should sack him. Imagine if a coach in any other sporting event told their player to get eliminated quickly so they can go and piss about in the local town/city. You honestly didn't see how that probally put pressure off flash's shoulders and made him relax?
Broken sarcasm detectors gets waaay too much attention on TL

Great interview. Cant wait to see what Flash is able to accomplish in HOTS!

I'm seriously getting goosebumps just thinking about it now.

I was only able to see Flash's play on Youtube videos years after I realized that there was such a thing as competitive Starcraft: Brood War. To see him rise again in this day and age would be absolutely thrilling to watch for me.
I agree that Flash personifies professionalism. A cool demeanor, confident without cockiness, appropriately humble and guarded against an unknowable future while simultaneously prioritizing practice, introspection, and effort. He is the Horatio Alger story of SC.

If you gave him a 3rd day, he might've been able to win against Life.
|
When Flash starts to figure out the game, Terran will surely be nerfed because of him

Some good coaching advice right there

Umm.. Actually, I thought it was quite wise. I'm sure he said it jokingly and wasn't trying to get Flash to forfeit his games or anything. It may have even been the reason Flash did so well. He obviously had no pressure and was able to play to his fullest. How many other plays can say that?
Don't be so dramatic.

I think you are confused as to the role of a coach right before an big event, because it isn’t to make the player want to win. Players can be their own worst enemies at events like this and lose the game in their own head long before they build their first worker. The coaches job is to keep the player focus and make sure they are not stressed. If Flash was concerned with his lack of practice, I am sure the coach was trying to tell Flash that it didn’t matter if he was eliminated early. Flash is going to have the mindset of a winner, it’s the coaches job to make sure that Flash is at the top of his game.
In short, Flash always shows up to win, the coach has nothing to do with that.

This is why I love Korean interviews above all else. People complain that they're boring because koreans all say the same thing, but the truth is that they're telling a lot of us what we don't want to hear. Others are bitching about their time in korea, imbalances, their struggle to find meaning, motivation, being in a slump, etc. You will not be blessed by the Talent Fairy. You don't fucking wait for inspiration, you don't wait to get un-depressed, you don't wait until it's fun again. You work your ass off through all the lows and highs and ups and downs until you're a god.
