Hes still a godly player but I feel he's regressing a little bit very slowly. Like...Roger Federer declining. He's still top 5 and lots of #2-#4 finishes but not quite that #1 with the best of the best fielded

This inconsistency is a trend I've noticed in SC2, is likely because of SC2's lower skill ceiling in my opinion. I think this is why players can beat people like Flash and Jaedong, because macro is so easy in SC2 that it's not a factor and then it comes down to coin-flips, scouting, and mind games. As this was no coinflip, you are implying flash is bad at scouting and mindgames?

No Jaedong is actually just not that good at sc2 compared to the Code S players, that's why he ran away to NA. Flash is very good, top 3 Terran, he just wasn't good enough to beat Parting and Bogus today, there's no shame in that. *nods*

Flash did not get outplayed in any of these games IMO. Protoss is much better in the late game than Terran, which is why Parting won game 1. In game 2, he did an all-in.

why wasn't flash prepared for that all in? (serious, non-biased question)

I still don't understand how he beat through all those Protosses.
Fun fact - the only player to beat Mvp that season was a protoss.

You like the boring race more than the interesting races, but Z and T players realize your race is actually not fun to watch compared to TvZ, TvT, and ZvZ Because watching Innovation hard-counter Flash's 1 rax CC with 2 rax reaper was so thrilling... And that proxy in game 1, man so much skillful macro.
Lol failed cheese followed by greedy play getting scouted. You forget how fucking insane Game 3 was

did he? Parting went for 3gates early and flash went for the fast engeneering bay instead of more barracks, so I think there wasn't too much of a window

Are you kidding me? Flash made a ton of mistakes, he was nowhere near the skill ceiling. yea but BW, and elephants, and Flash

did someone made a picture of flash drinking his drink?

Now, gogo Parting <3

Also remember that Flash wasn't dominating the final phase of BW either, he was amazing, but not godlike as in 2010/11. He's a great player but I think he's still far away from being capable of winning an individual league in Korea.

terrans are always playing under a pressure that protoss will get that unbeatable death ball like in game 1

gom should just let all four of them through, one of the other groups can sacrifice themselves for the greater good~

Lol TimENT just let it go now. You are whining over someone's taste in starcraft 2 games. I know it sounds very stupid but trust me, it is as stupid as it sounds.
