EPTthis is the most entertaining game I played using that strategy.
don't expect high level play, but i think overall the game was fairly high paced and fun.

 nice game, although you could've just kill him easily after your very successful fd rush. in tvp doesn't make much sense researching optical flare, because for the same money you could've just gotten a fast armory, fast damage upgrade and goliaths, which can shoot off the observers. though in tvz it can have some use, because you'll have medics anyway. in this case optical flare isn't too costly, and you can blind the slow overlords over cliffs, I find this quite useful. | ||

Good rep btw, very action packed. Have a look at my version of Optical Flare TvP: ![[image loading]](http://repdepot.net/img/thumbs/7186.jpg) I use it mostly to cut off flanks, and take advantage of protoss' split army. | ||

That wouldn't work on huge maps such as Python unless you put them in specific places Besides, it would be much harder to hit anything with them unless they are 100% undetectable. | ||
