Hey, hey, I'm not trying to argue that the win was not justified. If I was, I would create a forum topic, not a blog. But I'm just very angry about how pitiful those 2 games were. And this is far from the Bisu/Savior series because Bisu's strat was just a new way to win, a strategy with a continuation and a lategame entry. What Flash did was pure cheese without any chances to enter lategame in case it failed.
And please do not talk better scouting. What do you scout with, I wonder? (take 3 probes away from the minline? make a widespread undefendible base?) And even in case you do scout, what are you gonna do with it? Neither another gateway, nor forge/cannon are gonna do that in time. And starting 2 gate on Monty Hall in fear of the dreaded cheese is not really the best option.

scouting owns cheese? u really ask urself what u can do if u scout it?? come on dude think hard.... if a cheesing attempt like this is scouted, it will be countered (unless its scouted too late). U dont need 3 probes to scout it, 1 probe checking all ur 3 mineral chokes would have been enough. and if u scout it u build a pylon block or send some probes to mine/cancel mine the mineral patch hes trying to mine up. this all delays him while u pump forge/cannon... once cannon is up its pretty much gg.
