The only Protoss Flash doesn't roll all the time is Bisu.


And that is only because he can't make it past the qualifiers for the OSL and MSL .

i thnk the recalling of hallucinations coul dbe good, clear out the mines and then recall the real units so your units don't die asap

Can't happen, it's much harder to rely on a crazy strategy just to win, IMO they should play much more greedy to force flash out and have a timing counter so then if they succeed flash will be too far to come back. OR - - some really creative arb recall strat (sort of like what Kal was trying to do on fighting) but keep their bases^^
I don't need luck, luck is for noobs, good luck to you though

stork, jangbi, and best have had success at times.
Free has a decent chance - he has been really solid, and a good solid toss that has a slight unexpected element to their gameplay (unexpected, solid timing for carriers with a solid ground force), can beat flash.

i think it's a good idea and should be used when flash forces a "divide the map" scenario, which is what he does when he's behind. a situation like flash vs movie in osl finals game 1 where movie was on 6 bases to flash's 4 is a good example of when toss could use this
manner

so... if you can't beat flash in a PvT, what makes you think it would work better for you to switch to another race you don't play? I'm not really a follower of flash, but I would think his TvT is better than some Protoss players.

Or is there a certain army composition I'm missing?

Think if we talk about hallucinations then P should consider a carrier trap. Just build 1 carrier and make some hallucinations then go all in with yourProtoss ground army and kill most of the terran units. The next terran ball will be mostly goliath so P can stick to ground units and storms and crush him hard.

dmatrix on arbitors/emp on terran vessels

Some guy P who was obviously better than the T stole an SCV and made tanks .He was messing around alot so he could have lost but IMO in the end T couldnt do shit against recalling clumped siege tanks .When you recall them they will fire first because T won't be able to see them and if T somehow manages to get close to you you can just recall them again 5 meters away and they will fire first again and kill everything in sight.

protoss have arbiters and recall researched

terran must be stupid do not make goalith and turrets

This is ridiculous. You're pretty much saying every P player should just TvT vs Flash.
Friends are simply people you can do/say vulgar things to.

also, after MCing scvs and start building, by mind controlling an extra vulture and a tank means the protoss can get free vulture speed, mines and tank siege upgrades

That's not what he's saying, obviously.

Also fake Carriers is not worth it at all. Do you know how much a Fleet Beacon costs???
