Nothing killed Flash. Flash will still be on tablets and smartphones.
The need for a mobile Flash is pretty much going by the wayside because of the increased power of smartphones and tablets. Flash is nothing more than a plugin to play certain content. It will exist long after it's not the most popular online format for delivering streaming content.

Flash will coexist with Silverlight, HTML5 and any other plugins you can think of. This irrational and crazy hate of Flash from the Mac kook cult members was created by Jobs. Jobs knew that his first iPad couldn't handle the requirements of Flash and would reduce battery life. Rather than let the end user choose to use Flash or not, Jobs decided for them. So the crazy cook cult members took up the irrelevant cause and hates everything Flash. Why did they do this? Because they're crazy brainwashed nuts.
