    Lee Young-ho (born 5 July 1992 이영호) is a retired South Korean professional StarCraft: Brood War and StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty player who played under the alias By.FlaSh or simply Flash. For his entire career, Lee Young-ho played for the Korean pro-gaming team KT Rolster. He retired in December 2015.

    Career

    Lee joined KT Rolster in 2007 at the age of 14. He quickly established himself as a top player, carrying KT in the Proleague team competition and achieving fourth place in the 2007 Daum OnGameNet Starleague. The following year, he won the Bacchus OnGameNet Starleague, becoming the youngest player to win a premier Korean tournament - a record still unbroken. His career arose to new heights in the 2009-10 season, when he reached the finals of seven premier tournaments - every one held that season - and won five. Three of those victories were against Lee Jae-dong, a famous rival of Lee Young-ho and the second-best player of the time. These achievements have cemented him as one of the greatest players of all time.
