Jesus christ. That game reminded me of Loki II v Jaedong with the huge army roming around the map. (Not as good obviously but you know)
When the game first started and Hero's mutas were popping I was like "oh man here we go again.. another game where Flash doesn't have turrents..." but his control was great. Fun game. And definitely shows up some other TvZ'er who was in this MSL + Show Spoiler +
|
Flash just layed down a smackdown on hero... he's not messing around early in the season, hope it stays like this until the inevitable JD vs Flash MSL duel that will probably not happen.
|
No nitpicks here - wow
One of the most impressive TvZs of the year - just insane play.
No other Terran can play M&M this well in my opinion
|
Just wow... by.hero is by no means a horrible player, but that was a complete and utter rape. Wow. I feel that Jaedong is the only threat to Flash with his current form. May they avoid each other until the finals.
Flash's bio micro (and everything else) is nothing short of spectacular. I hope he sticks to playing bio instead of boring and overrated mech.

The smart move by Flash was to move out with his initial army so that the mutas wouldn't harass his base. This gave Flash a small advantage and by.hero was behind when his 2 hatch muta build did no harass damage.

You know, there's always a time of the year when everyone complains about Flash. Either they call him overrated, boring, a one hit wonder, etc. It's times like these when you can't fault him that really make me smile. He's just so amazingly good and while being his fan is a trial in frustration, games like these make it worth it.

that was one hell of a sexy game. flash is in really great shape. i hope he wins a title this season. he deserves it. topnotch mechanics and multitasking combined with the best sense for timings in the entire proscene...

Well, last season there seemed to have been some debate as regards to the top terran. That debate seems pretty settled right about now. Flash is the only terran who can win against the trend in any MU.
Unless he meets a top PvT player like Bisu or Stork, Flash should advance pretty far this season.

Well, doing what Flash did require insane confidence in your MnM control. Terrans don't usually do that because it results in the initial army getting creamed quickly. Flash obviously didn't think much of hero's muta micro.

That's it, I'm changing my icon to olleh KT. I love bio TvZ so much. Mech TvZ makes me appreciate bio so much more when I see it done so sexy.
I think Flash's most vulnerable matchup by far right now is TvP...no Terran can touch him, and only one Zerg can, I think (I don't need to say who).
Also Flash currently on a 9 game TvZ win streak.

Don't forget the 11 game TvT with a fair showing in TvP (1-2 in close games with Bisu ain't half bad).

Calm is the only one of those zergs he hasn't completely dismantled recently.

You mean the Luxury acquisition has actually started to pay off? Only took like a year.

but flash also is a tvp monster. seriously, when he pushes out in tvp u better shit ur pants....
somehow he is a fucking monster in every matchup right now. the only player to stop him in this form is probably jaedong. man... i hope so much for non-mirror starleague finals this season...

I think he's at a bit of a loss as to what to do against Bisu too. I get the feeling Bisu is the one player where Flash doesn't feel like he can play his turtle style and win because Bisu's late game is also so insanely good.
Of course nothing changes the fact that Flash is like 1-10 or something against Bisu/Jangbi/Stork/Best/Kal this year, which is depressing.

Yeah, I was actually talking about tvz only, Bisu and Stork are serious threats too.
Also Kal, but I'm biased:-p Remember how he raped him on Destination not so long ago with 3 simultanous DT attacks? It was beautiful
