He sucks a horse cock at early game. Seriously, I could do almost as good with scv + marine micro. It just looked kind of terrible. Confuses me as to how someone can be so pro at late game control with massive armies but sucks a giant one with few units.

A-move rines against zergling all in, then fail proxy rax in the middle of the map and let 1 zerglings scout all your tech buildings, then let overlord spot your dropships and still drop w/o caring. Then do a 14 cc TvZ on Match Point w/o even proper walling against zergling all in, and that's how you do it ^_^

but being utterly rubbish at the early game. you've seen it time and time again that his opponent ALWAYS gets the build advantage. the only time it doesn't happen is when protoss starts with 12 nexus and that's because protoss players suck balls these days so they never get away with it.

it wasn't even mind games or anything so cj fanboys don't get yourself wet. its just flash is so bad at this and we've seen it time and time again. its the fact his late game is so strong that he can smash these scrubs back and make it look like there wasn't any advantage.

I'd say this basically sums it all up. It's pretty impressive to do it 3 games in a row no?

Flash seriously screwed on his MnM micro on his timing attack in the second game as well, he just managed to get out of the opening well enough to turn on his midgame=win switch.

Seriously a disappointing series.

shouldn't be anything new for them though. flash's individual league career is summed up losing games in less than 5 minutes just like yellow's individual league career is summed up by the silver medal.

He RAPED EffOrt twice in straight up games and then for some unknown, ungodly reason decided to proxy rax and lost when EffOrt scouted it with his first overlord.
Next game he moved out with his a handful of marines and 2 medics to secure his ramp or something, the marines in a limbo line hugging a wall and the 2 medics in trailing too far behind to heal. So sloppy. EffOrt killed them all with his first lings and then clean up.
Game 5, Flash 14 cc on Match Point...a 2 players map that EffOrt simply did the same build Flash had already seen him do TWICE already tonight. After EffOrt saw the 14 cc, 3 hatch all-in ling. What do you expect.

So disappointing from Flash, though the 2 games he won were really good.

I just wish EffOrt won in a better fashion. He capitalized on Flash's mistakes perfectly but he didn't win a single game past maybe the 10 minute mark, and he won the Grand Championship from that.

Flash thought he had it in the bag when he was up 2-0 and relaxed his mental state.... then got greedy

He played great the first two games, then he got greedy and played like trash as he got abused by Effort.

i really don't think flash got greedy. this is on par for flash to be honest, i'm actually surprised people don't bother doing more aggressive 'all ins' against flash since he cuts corners harder than any other terran playing right now.
