Though this is said mostly in jest, I do hope that Larva manages to qualify and make it to the upper stages of the next ASL. He deserves recognition for how well he's been playing. I remember back even during the Sonic era, he was helping out Sonic with preparation (from what I could tell and such). Despite his antics, he's pretty passionate about the game and has some of the better mutalisk micro among zergs too.

I'm not exaggerating when I say that I've never seen a single BW player who's playstyle seemed this besieging to me. Larva is like a dragon breathing down the knight's neck. He uses every chance he gets to put more pressure, yet he's also disciplined and flees at the right time, and his ability to defend multiple bases is uncanny. Not just that Larva has already been giving top pros a run for their money, he's actually still climbing the ranks, still improving his winrate, still plugging holes in his game, it's almost unbelievable.

One thing that I find that he can still improve is his ZvT anti-eraser defense. I think he needs to upgrade burrow sooner because I see him losing games to that tactic. If he fixes that and other such things I'm pretty sure he'll soon be an even match for Last - or he could even surpass him.

because the instant you see the mines unborrow, you know you will lose your lurker/defiler. Your reflex to save your units with micro will not help. Even panic burrow or swarm/plague will not save your precious unit. you can only shout NOOOO! in disbelief and watch for 1,5 seconds how the ruthless spidermine hunts down its prey.

sounds like we have a volunteer! He beat JD on Alternative, 2011 map that barely saw much play and then Flash on Outsider I believe. Not sure about Bisu, missed it.

I think Last is currently better at TvZ than Flash.

I'd agree with that. Watching Larva play he seems more comfortable vs FlaSh

Incredible performance by Larva today. Beating Flash in two straight 30+ minute games. When he is on fire he looks invincible, no matter what Flash throws at him.



(starts 1h32)


(up until 1h38)

Starts with 2 - 0 for FlaSh, in two short games, then :

Larva wins 2 very long macro games, followed by a quick third win with heavy muta micro.
Then there's a game (second video, one hour mark) where he manages to reboot a FlaSh firebat early agression, before leaving because he has connection problems seemingly (not sure if he was ahead, could've been 4 - 2).
Games n°7 is again a quick Muta win for Larva and n°8 is this one :

So in the end, 5 - 3 for Larva that could (should ?) have been 6 - 2. He got 2 x 5000 ballons following this serie btw (1:40:50)


Enjoy !

I will say FlaSh has significantly better results in ASL and other tournaments, consistently is higher in the month Afreeca Top 5 rankings in each MU, etc. Unless there is something I'm missing, the statistics clearly indicate FlaSh is better.

That said, I'm more than happy to hear from a subjective standpoint what Last is doing to make his TvZ feels stronger than FlaSh's.

It's just a feeling I get from watching them play in recent weeks. Just my personal opinion, nothing objective. And I'm only talking about TvZ, in the other matchups I think Flash is better.
