I love Flash genius to death, but 2pacalypse's article on the Bisu vs. Flash is so lacking and so deceiving that readers who haven't seen the games think it was too simple. For example, Bisu didn't make just zealots because he lost core. Core was already on the way, and the speedlot wave transition was part of the plan, if you look at the game in its totality. There were a few other significant details that the article missed that made it unreflective of the epicness of the Ace match.

Still, I love the fact the if indeed that if going to be the last BW PL game, it run with the show!

I think you're misunderstanding what a Battle Report is. I definitely did not write a deep analysis of that game. It's just a short report with few pictures on how the game transpired. How can it be deceiving? I literally just went through the game step by step and wrote what was happening on the screen at the moment.
But even if I did write an analysis of it, you would still be wrong. Of course it was part of Bisu's plan to make zealots in PvT, that's the part of every PvT... But Bisu could ONLY make Zealots then. So unless it was his plan to lose a cybernetics core, I'd say he didn't do anything special there.
Just to put it into numbers (from VOD):
15:14 - Bisu loses his core
16:28 - it shows his core at about 60% done
16:52 - if you do the math, that's about the time his core finished

Now you see that Bisu was without his core for about two whole minutes. If you take into account that it takes 40 seconds for zealot to be produced, you can conclude that he made three rounds from his gateways of pure zealots. He just lucked out that Flash didn't build any vultures whatsoever. And if I remember correctly, Flash mentioned in an interview that he didn't make vultures because he thought he killed Bisu's citadel so he didn't have speed zealots. Alas...

To be able to see this live... there isn't much I'd rather do. Unfortunately, however, this might have been the last BW PL. I really hope that it isn't and that we'll have more in future. We can just wait and see, I guess.

On another note, these articles are so good!

I thought the next OSL's finals happens within the 9 days me and my family will spend in Korea, only to realize I miscalculated and we're actually a month earlier, like during the Ro8.



I hope BW and SC2 will split once the gaming industry(not gonna use the e word) in Korea re-establishes itself after the scandal, then we'll see more FvJ and KT vs SKT finals.

I did not read the Riptide part for obivous reasons ( :-( ), but great write up everywhere else, and close to no SKT bias where it could be avoided, thanks guys.
I disagree with the way you rated Flash, but I don't really care. Still, you could give the best player on SKT a bit more consideration (and a S+ report card). After all, even as a Flash fan, I think Fantasy might be the current best BW player. His PvT is certainly, better, and he's proven that his TvT is at least closer than what many people expected =) His TvZ probably lags a bit behind, but that match up has rarely seemed as Terran favored since before IPXzerg, so it does not really matter.
This shall be settled in this next OSL, hopefully in the finals :D

Fantasy should be S+ and finals mvp, he beat Flash on a level playing field. Bisu beat a sacrificial p7gab and abused a broken map. Kiett's cartoon might be more accurate if flash had his hands tied together and bisu had a gun

This finals were epic.
The OGN SPL production was flawless.
The commentators were fabulous.
The BW TL team coverage was splendid.
Fantasy vs Flash was mindblowing.
Bisu vs Flash was a cardiac arrest test.

The end was all tears, of joy and relief.

I will carry BW forever in my heart, and nothing can ever replace it.
