Last and others also started to play more 1-1-1 (as always, Flash popularizes a style and everyone else follows), but with much less succes.

Where should i look for stats on this? Perhaps a place where you can see Last, Ssak, Flash, the other Terrans who use it.

I wonder about the others winrates, compared to Flash.

Here you can see winrates, overall and against individual races, for any time period you like over the last year, second column selects a race and third column is for maps. Top right gray box switches ranking system between ELO and winrate. You can find korean names from TLPD

Thanks man!

Top 100 zergs should go on a seminar weekend, sit down with a council of the former top players. IF nothing of that works, perhaps 100 floors down behind a forbidden door you can go ask Savior what he thinks should be done.

Wow tesagi is real.. no single zerg with >50% winrate vs T. Now what is interesting we had a lot of zergs with good win rations vs Terran back in Kespa days. What has happened? Maps? (dominance of CB and FS)

If you use the complete available time frame from 05-2017 to 2018 you will see Effort and Soulkey and some Z that isn't in TLPD with winrates >50%.

feels like P>T>Z is pretty usual? Flash and last do well in tournys, other than that... Anyway, as with any new popular strat, give it some time and awesomeness of BW will find a balance.
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

Can someone please explain the main advantage of going the 1-1-1 build is for Terran?

Also, what is Flash referring to in how Zerg now can play against 5 rax? What's causing Flash to change builds? Thanks.

Here is a relevant VOD of when Effort tries Hydra-Queen against Flash's 1-1-1 build:

that's not really hydra-queen, more like a semi-failed hydra bust into 3 queens (that broodlinged 3 tanks) into mass ling, or something.

Haven't watched a vod, but if Effort manages to kill 3 tanks with broodlings than that is quite a hydra-queen. To have 3 queens with brood ling at that time is already a huge commitment.

1) You get a very good harasment potential before mutas are out, be it with vultures/wraith/dropship (not incl. that you can 8 rax into vulture)
2) You get a very good map vision and map control. Vultures put mines in critical expansions, can kill drones that go to expansions. You also limit whole vission with wraith killing ovies on high ground and vultures killing lings running around the map - that is the mindgame part. Zerg doesn't know what exactly terran does and terran can exactly prepare for what zerg is doing.
3) You get your tech MUCH quicker. What would normally be standard is 9:30~ vessel. Here Flash get 4 vessels at 9:00 mark.
4) All in all the build is very versatile and allows terran to adjust constantly, while in standard bio play you only get full scouting while your scans are out at around 6:00 mark.
5) The downside is different aggresion options that zerg has before terran setups whole production, be it various mass ling all ins, hydra allins etc.

As for your second point, there two main ideas about zergs learning how to deal with 5 rax. One is top zergs learned to be very good with muta ling and are not that scared to fight in the middle - if terran loses the initial 16 marines 4 medics without killing a significant amount of lings / mutas (and if bad positioning it can happen easily), terran can never really get the map control or threaten the 3rd. Second thing is zergs like to play things like 7 mutas lurker to secure the 3rd quicker. All in all, 5 rax is still super strong and one mistake from zerg can make it a game, but I Flash likes to achieve consistent results and he probably was losing some games here and there to above mentioned..

I'm more saying it wasn't hydra than that it wasn't queen. basically he made 12-18 or so hydras before he made or used queens and after losing those hydras he was going pure ling defiler. queens and hydras weren't in play at the same time.
