I usually don't bother with Flash block (is it really his block? lol) because I rarely make enough marines to hold a ramp, but going FD or similar it is definitely superior. Good for all who didn't know.

You can still do the Flash block to be able to scout with your marines without lifting your barrack. Very handy on Colosseum to kill the probe if they start building a pylon above your wallin

Why do you call it the "Flash Block"?
I mean, I've seen it done before and not only from Flash, is it just your preference to call it that or is that the standard term?

Well, I wouldnt say ESSENTIAL, but it can make you get your CC faster.

I think Flash was the first one to use it in a televised game, but I could be wrong.

I tried, but I can't figure out how to embed the images. You and everyone else have my permission to add them.

a better wall in for nat for bottom main's nat is cc rax and depot. Just switch the order of the depot and rax. It will make it probe and zeal proof. Ive seen pros do that instead of depot rax.

Also your wall in for 3 i dont think a ebay below a depot is zealot proof.

But your idea for walling off the bridges is something new to me.

Yeah, I've seen progamers do it that way too, but it's still not zealot proof. I tested it both ways. The wall-in with the ebay works for zealots. Go ahead and test it yourself.

Think the second one for Naturals won't block either the zerglings or the zealots.
