btw edit http://www.sc2ranks.com/kr/1579721/Bisu but I think its not him.

A lot of players steal the nicks of BW pros, so I wouldn't trust those.

Quite a few of those barcode accounts belong to existing SC2 progamers and teams. I wouldn't be surprised if they were MKP or MVP smurfs, considering that they usually are ladder monsters.

I'm curious to see how he will do. I never watched BW so I'm not all giddy about Flash. Being good at BW doesn't mean he will be at SC2 though. In BW he gained an advantage from practising for insane amounts of hours per day (I heard). In SC2 he will start 2 years behind.

I don't have to reinvent the wheel to use one and win the race against you.

When I hear that top BW pros are trying SC2 out, I imagine a pack of demigods storming the Earth :D But seriously - I hope that all those top players will destroy GSL and force other competitors to work harder than ever.

protect me from what I want

We are truly blessed that God will allow us to watch him play Starcraft 2.

Be prepared to have everything you ever thought you understood about the game blown apart.

I would actually love if Flash would not stream or go that public. There is no aura of mistery anymore in sc2.

Not necessarily streaming, although that would be awesome too. More OGN/GOMTV etc broadcasting his games I was thinking of.

I don't think KT, SKT etc. will allow them to stream or... they don't want to since they are getting a good amount of salary already. But you never know.

I doubt he'd play in it.

TL can invite whoever they want. They invited BoxeR last time and it was really sick since it was the beginning of SC2. This time they can invite Flash.
Actually they could turn TSL into a TBLS vs MC/DRG/MMA/MKP vs 8 qualified with an online qualifier. Epic ro16.

I think people should not hype him so much. If he is going to beat everyone it is not going to be convincing or demolishing and it is for sure not going to be right away.

Flash SC2 debut event. Let him play vs the current Gods MC/DRG/MMA/MKP. It's the only way the Supreme God Flash would get authority over his sc2 minions.

I hope Flash shows how to incorporate more Ravens into armies in all matchups. That is such an underused and potentially really valuable unit. This is the biggest hope I have with regards to his switch, otherwise he's going to do pretty much what anyone else will do, but a lot better.

That would destroy the whole point of TSL. They want to create new legends with an open tournament where everyone has to qualify not invites.

I think it's quite refreshing for the BW players to switch to a new game and have a fresh start. This will also bring many opportunities for the lower rank players, which is nice.

I think someone that everyone is missing is the sudden arrive of the expansion this year, which will change in fact the whole metagame and timings beeing a reset for everyone else, so they just have to catch up in terms of game understanding, and then with the expo, they will be the masters of the universe.

Yeah, keep in mind guys that the BW pros haven't played SC2 AT ALL as much as the old school SC2 crew.

am I the only one who sees Terran nerf coming when Flash starts?

if tetris has taught me anything, it's that errors pile up and accomplishments disappear... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is sick, Why? WHY!? Well, glad to see he's at least enjoying it. But should a top tier player like flash wait for all the expansions first?
