Also, people saying stuff about Flash's TvZ revolution and so on. I'd say that that's more because of the passive 3 hatch muta, although I guess his manouvering was really nice. However, if JD had made more zerglings because it's a good skill to have, I think that those groups would have been quite vulnerable.

Maybe his style is good against greedy-ish 3 hatch style play?

can some1 explain to me why Jaedong canceled his first attempt at a third base? i mean it was scouted but he then placed it at a position that was farther away from his base and harder to defend, not to mention very heavily delayed. did he assume Flash would just think he was going for a 2-base build? O.o


When jaedong lost the third the first time he was desperate, so he threw a third at a spot and prayed flash wouldn't scout there. At least that's how I see it.



he moved his mutas up there to scout for the scv/marines but he was off by a few seconds so the scv squeaked in

How the hell is this revolutionizing?
This is exactly the same bio-style Terrans used for the last 2 years, a bit safer i guess.
I'm getting raped by this "11rax CC, deny 3rd, push befor defiler" since i play Iccup. Flash executed it well, JD made a couple bad decisions that's it.
And who said JD cannot beat this? He lost ONE frickin game. Zero could have beaten Flash had he upgraded what he should have.

I know other people have said it, but I think that was one of the most perfect TvZs ever.

Lurkers did nothing, mutas didn't get their money's worth, and he denied ling backstabs and expos at the same time like a beast.

I had thought Flash's "I practiced more for JD than ZerO, that's why I was sloppy" answer sounded like an excuse in the MSL after-interview, but now I can see that I was wrong.

edit: Didn't see the actual unit counter, oops

Movie will eliminate Zero and Zero will lose to Flash in the MSL too.


Tbh, I really don't know who will win game 3, but it's a lot easier to make a pun with (Z)ZerO than with (P)Movie in this case...

PvZ imba talk led to maps that make it harder for zerg to get a third quick. Jaedong has to be all over the map to get one, Flash denies and macros up ---> gg.

It was like watching a demonstration of Terran at some blizzcon rather than a game between two of the best players of SC.

Jeeez people are so serious today...

Yeah sure it's Bionic, but the meta game seems a bit different with very early aggression, which wasn't seen a lot before Flash started using it a lot. And of course my statement about the people being unbeatable is an exaggeration, I'm just happy for Flash's win.

People need to chill...

not a 3hat muta without 16 speedlings and fast 3rd

I think we failed to also recognize flash scanning ability. He was using his comsat frequently from the sound..we just could not tell what he was looking for. I think that plus the 2 roaming groups of marines and the hero scv..gave flash a lot of map info...add that to his game sense and it was an advantage that even JD had a hard time to overcome.

I don't get why some people are all "imba terran" or "JD got position fucked"

Why not just say "wow JD looked like he wasn't at all into the game hopefully he shows up next week"? As a Flash fan he played a perfect game.. but JD looked physically tired and not into the game at all... his whole plan was "I hope Flash doesn't notice this early 3rd!" and then he got rolled. :/.

I for one hope he at least seems interested in their christmas matches

Bloody hell, I hope you brought your A game Pure because you either play like a total idiot or you play amazingly. And I want you to knock out Calm to prevent a ZvZ final.
