I don't know. His game against Han (yeah its Han but still) was the cleanest he's played for a long time. He seems to be regaining some form at least.

Anyone else getting the cuddly bear motif soming from Shine? I mean just look at him in that picture :3

Yeah,no offense but roro and han are not really in the same league.but yes his play against han was good but he's gonna have to do much better if he wants to beat the likes of roro.

Thanks for the thread. I was going to make one, but I realized I don't know how.... Where's the option on the site? Or do I need privileges that I don't have?
|
Viooooleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. Gogo.
Anyways, Just 1 person needs to pick up a Set other than Flash. Cause we all know Flash is instant win.
Edit: Wtf? Do people not notice that red folder? I mean its small sure, but its red. It should stand out.
Anyways go to a section and look for a red folder at the top-leftish center of the section. It says, "New Topic"

Mind is gonna end Flash's streak \o/ , also, if it goes to ACE i really hope the coach won't send Roro out again...

Shine > 815 Mind < Flash Pure < Violet RorO > ForGG Pure < Flash
3-2 KT.
I'm predicting Pure will be sent out for ace because they won't play Mind again after he's crushed by Flash and Flash has shown in his game vs Jaedong that he can completely dominate on Fightning Spirit. Simply put Flash's TvT and TvZ is unstopable at the moment. I'm also a bit of a Pure fan so that may be biased, but if Wemade send out Mind, Sine or RorO, they will stand less of a chance imo.
Also hoping that Pure will beat Violet but judging by record that seems unlikely.
|
the match up pictures are misplaced
|
|
|
Interesting jackets on the Wemade side.
|
This should be decided in the ace match, since I don't see Flash and ForGG dropping their games, so I'll go with KT.
|
I wouldn't be surprised if this is goes 3-0 KT. Flash - 815 - Violet is an absolute killer lineup
|
every so often my stream might have to buffer for a few seconds, but it shouldnt be too often. send a PM or something if there are any major problems.
thanks
|
Come on, Shine! Lets take this to ace!
EDIT: I see Never dropping his game. I see it being a 3-0 if 815 wins this and it going to ace if not.
|
Thanks soso much man, your a champ :D
|
Would not be surprised if Violet came out for ace. It getting to ace also feels sorta likely : Shine > 815 (this isn't definite though) Mind < Flash Pure < Violet Roro > Forgg Roro ? vs Violet ? (And Violet > anyone on wemade except for Shine).
|
Please RoRo, please fail to FailGG if it gets to that. You are just massacring my FPL.
|
Should be a nice match, even with all the mirrors there's some good games. My predictions:
Shine < 815 Mind < Flash Pure > Violet Roro > Forgg Rock > Flash
|
Started btw, shine is on the left in yellow zerg and opposite side is 815 in red
|
Both gone 12 pool gas, 815 ops for lair and shine for speed as he has no lair
|
|
|
Both taking their naturals, but Shines a little ahead since he delayed his lair
|
wow thats pretty horrible control, lost 3 drones to 2 lings
|
815 loses 2-3 drones and the ling battle.
Looking good for Shine.
|
Very nice control by Shine, winning alot of micro battles with lings and sneakign quite a few in the min line
|
815 is behind, shine sliped some lings in and got a good number of drones and also loses the ling battle at his front
|
OH 815 is smart, hes sniping ols to give him a window to get some of dem drones back
|
good lord lot of lings for 815
|
815 going for mass ling
Shime killing ovies with scourge
|
815s lings in shines main, mutas pop and clean it up
|
O.o
Shine's drones >>> 815's drones
|
this is turning very ugly.
|
Shine is at a huge advantage, I dunno what's taking him so long to win

Shine did nothing wrong this game at all? And hes playing it the right way, and scourgeling was a good option for 815 after shine killed 2 drones.
It was a well played game from Shine

Omg wtf are those barf colored coats for Fox. Why would anyone design or wear such a thing.

Huge mutalisk / scourge battle over 815's base; Shine comes out on top with around ~5 mutalisks and 815 gg's.

Agreed. Mind's TvT has always been his strong point and he certainly has a reasonable chance of brining Flash down. I wouldn't bet on him, but it's very possible.

Predicting one of Flash > Mind and Violet > Pure hardly makes me cocky

Flash is such a monster these days, I really feel he's the strongest player at the moment. His only 'weakness' is in his TvP where his aggression can get him in trouble, but his TvZ and TvT are so immaculate there's nearly no chink to attack. His loss against Hyun was more due to the map than anything else. He's just a demon and with players like Shine, Violet and Luxury on his team it's a good time to be a KT fan.

i wanted to exchange shine for mind in my anti but i undid to try things out and could not do it anymore, this will be -10 :/

Yeah seriously...Flash vs Mind is probably going to be closer than everyone here thinks but I can't see how Pure is going to take down Violet considering how careless he is and how good Violet generally is at PvP. I mean all you have to do is watch any of Pure's last 10 games to see how he can get a massive, massive advantage only to throw it away nearly instantly because he's an idiot.
Either way, I just want to see Forgg play again and hopefully not suck.
|
Flash top right Mind bottom left Tornado
|
lol i hope pure is not letting me down and loses, would be worst case for my fpl,
but after all i just hope mind can give a decent fight, and violet goes on with his streak ;D
gogo

huh... both building rax at front
|
grobyc could you take down that "thanks for watching" thing at the bottom haha<3

The cameras are really harassing the girls today.
It shows them, and they're like smiling, and the camera zooms in like WHY AREN'T YOU HIDING YOUR FACE? HIDE YOUR SHAME, WOMAN! and keeps zooming in on her until she looks away, rofl.
|
What critter is that? A scantid? :X Looks weird from this angle.
|
Both players with very similar openings, but Flash got a scouting SCV inside Minds base. rather quickly dispatched, though.
|
Mind with some minor vult harass.
Flash with... a wraith?
|
|
|
Good play from Flash with rax over armory so Mind cant rebuild
|
Hahah i love that rax over amoury trick :D
|
flash getting invisible units ;D
|
I love how Flash makes wraiths so useful in TvT... I haven't seen people do the same things as him
|
Mind has map control atm, but Flash is not in a really bad position.
|
Just wow, flash's micro was pretty good
|
OMFG EPIC TANK MICRO FROM FLASH. gets surrounded by vults and losses nothing
|
|
|
For the record, Mind better not win.
Screwing BOTH Flash's TvT and my FPL = me angry.
|
Both players taking a third... Flash clearing out the minefield so he can lay down a cc
|
wraiths vs vults and tanks.. flash is unfair
|
mind got some goliaths, flash adds a good amount of tanks
|
GO FLASH!!! He's just pushin accross the map easy as
|
Mind gets a few vults inside flashs base. Does some damage.
Both players getting their thirds.
Flash keep using those wraiths like a hero.
Cloak has been researched, taking out mines all over his side of the map.
Flash back in control, it would seem.
I can't LR, due to Flood control
|
Flash continues to push while Mind starts building a starport... looks like he wants this to evolve into a dropship war perhaps
|

Commentators are befuddled by the perfection that is Flash's TvT.
|
FvT is truly imba, with very few rare bo wins and smaller bo advantages and a less volatile mu its hard to see Flash losing anytime soon.
|
oh God.my stream is lagging like shit today.
|

Flash's SCV loses the SCV fight.
|
lol for a second it looked like Mind had a chance. then the obs pan over to 10 backup tanks for Flash
|
Mind going for a break with scvs but reinforcements have just arrived for Flash and his tanks numbers far outnumber Minds.
|
Minds doing an amazing job to hold this off, wonder how much longer this game will go on
|
mind killed the crystalis, kerrigan is dead now!
yay
|
flash is pushed back by minds force, ships out for both now, not in action yet
|
What the hell, flash drops 5 less tanks and has one seiged on the low ground and somehow still wins, wth
|
flash won first drop battle on the edge, but mind can fight him back again
|
|
|
|
|
Flash holds the third main, at this point he looks to take three mains
|
Flash consumes most of the map.
Prepares for lategame
|
|
|
Mind uses dual CC's as shields, still loses a dropship to turrets
|
flash had alot more sieged tanks, but mind hand more rolling in on the ground, it was quite even fight
|
That was beautiful... using the cover of the cc's floating over to drop and take out the turrets... too bad he went in too far and lost a dropship
|
5930 Posts
Smart of Mind to use those CCs as cannonfodder.
|
Mind seams to be half a step ahead of flash with dropping areas
|
|
|
Oof, that counterdrop on top of Minds drop there was a good move by flash... totally raped all the units
|
Flash's TvT is so amazing.
|
Mind seems to be greatly behind right now. Flash is winning every battle.
|
So sorry for you Mind, playing vs Flash as terran just isn't fair.
|
flash seems to be all over the place
|
It's FvT guys. 19-0 incoming. Or is it 20-0 ?
|
Flash is simply too good at TvT. Poor Mind... he is so under appreciated.
|
Flash taking out some established siege tanks... it seems he's pulled ahead again, sieging up the 8 oclock expo as well
|
flash is pushing forward with his armored spear doctrine with air support
|
looks like flash got this again.
|
Mind is so fucked lol, Flash has like 2/3 of the map and 6 mining bases now
|
So many dships for flash whoa
|
Korea (South)3086 Posts
Flash has like a million dropships. Jeez.
|
|
|
good try Mind, but FvT is just imbalanced.
|
LOL @ the dropship count.
|
mind putting up a great fight againts flash, nice tvt.
|
flash already has this, count bases mind and gg out
|
Flash drops one of Minds expos and so Mind takess the opportunity to take out the siege line in the middle of the map. He gave up an expansion but he's gaining a bit more map control back
|
Korea (South)3086 Posts
Mind loses both CC's at 5 o'clock.
|
WHAAA, Mind wasnt able to get an scv out to save the cc at 4
|
lol, good thing Mind had a spare CC at that 4 expo. AH IT BURNS DOWN. HE HAD A SPARE CC AND STILL LOST THE EXPO
|
|
|
is anyone else's stream lagging?
|
|
|
holy fuck this is just brutal... and mind is GOOD at TvT
|
Ahh, its pretty far gone now, Flash dropping all over the place and Mind can't keep up with a hindered economy..
|
i wonder who can stop flash, i though sea could do it (but he lost)
|
Mind GG's
flash cannot be stopped
|
|
|
Mind GGs. Lol at the burning CC p_q.

|
|
|
I cannot believe how good he is. Just wow.
|
21 Straight for Flash now :D

mind got mind-fucked in a flash.

leta skyhigh hwasin who will it be?
|
I had a txt open while I watched this. My stream of conscious from this game is as follows:
I love TvT. It takes so long to decide. There is so much skill involved. Endurance and skill. The game isnt decided quickly. An early advantage can be overcome with a barrage of tank fire. It is a fickle matchup. A fusion of immobility and the dropship mobility that counterpoints that.
This game, from covering the armory with a floating barracks, to intense control of the mid-map peaks outside of each natural, has been an amazing game. I have loved TvT for years, and this game somehow stands out. Maybe because Flash is fighting here, and he is unbeatable.
Still, it seemed that despite his disadvantages, Mind has put up the best fight I have seen. Leta and FBH have both put up immense efforts against this monster and failed, and I would include this game amongst those recent amazing TvTs.
EDIT: One's consciousness, in stream form, is a poor speller.

Doesn't look like he can be beat honestly, you can't just win TvT's without proper mechanics and no one is close to Flash at the moment. He has better macro, is extremely good at gaining map control and using it to take an econ advantage. He can also harass and wins in most fights. Seems unstoppable.

I don't think it will be a consistent TvT map (who knows), but that matchup made such good use of it that I'm sold on it for the purpose.
EDIT: @ previous post: Irony man.

noww gogo violet, i think today he will be sent for ace too (if he wins now)

Tells you just how much they practice that early game when the probes literally run into each other in the EXACT middle of the map
|
pure showing his disdain for violet
|
Violet taking his nat. Pure continuing to apply pressure and takes a secret expansion at 5
|
Some of the non-kespa stuff is pretty ridiculous, like the proleague allstars games. He goes 3-port against savior for fun, and loses. Should that count? probably not. But GOM probably should--it is a real tournament played for money where both players were trying their utmost to win. Ultimately, we have to defer to someone's opinion of what should count if everything isn't counted, and in SC, that opinion is Kespa, for better or worse.
|
|
|
no nat for violet, someone could gg right now.
|
No pressure Mr.Reaver, you just have to kill everything on the map!
|
unless violet can kill pure with his first goon/reaver attack he's totally dead. Completely missread Pure's build
|
ok, so wtf is this. Pure went double expand, and THEN killed Violet's nat before his econ kicked in.
|
Violet pretty far behind now... he's retaking his nat, but he's lost tons of mining time and Pure's bound to be ahead.

Why am I afraid Pure will somehow throw this game away like he always does?
|
just to remind this is pvp, 4 storms/scarabs can change everything
|
not when you are up 1 base for so long in mid game

still, not every team decided to participate, especially in season 3. in season 2 (1 dunno) there were only MBC hero and ongamenet(hite) not allowing their players to play afair. but season 3 was a whole lot different. the absence of SKT1 alone (with bisu as the reigning champion) was too much
|
Violet's got some reavers, so perhaps some lucky scarabs can help to pull him back in the game
|
|
|
|
|
OMG That was probe slaughter... mustve killed a dozen or more
|
"LOL Yes! I evened things up by killing all those probes"
just wait till he sees the rep
|
stomped oh violet you still fighting
|
Scarabs from hell, OMG !!!
|
ok violets army is done, he is pretty much done
|
|
|
Pure with fucking huge army, not bothering with tech.
|
Pure countering at Violet;s nat... and nothing there to really defend
|
why did violet had to lose when i just traded him for my team...
sigh
|
|
|
well played by pure, violet couldnt expect that bottom right exp
|
So sad violet has no idea why is getting rolled so bad lol
|
come on kt make this day -15 ´:/
|
Pure stomps the nat, his econ advantage is so much now Violet can't stop it
|
|
|
Yeeeaaaaaaah Pure
|
Now we have to rely on fOrGG :/
|
|
|
That game was great for a laugh.
|
Reavers get sniped and Violet GGs. ForGG!! Gogogo you need to win this
|
Awesome game by Pure
|
Violet must think Pure has some sort of mineral hack LOL
|
fuck, holy shed, pure, shine on anti did not pay out today xD
|
KT is now relying on fOrGG to be clutch...
|
forGG u must do it!!!!!! go to ACE!!!
|
ForGG gogogo, Flash is the Ace
|
*brain off, hormones on*:
Goddamn is Pure good-looking. *grabby hands*
|
FFS Srsly, now KT's only hope lies in ForGG out of al players... *sigh*
|
|
|
time for the master of Tvz himself, the man who raped jaedong 3-0. The macro monster. ForGG!!!! please win i want an ace match XD
|
|
|
oh this is soooo over for kt.
|
Finish it Roro, I don't want Mind to come out fore ace.
|
You are so cool Pure. Keep playing with that level of ballsyness and you are my favorite Protoss. Keep cannon rushing in the OSL and I hate you. You walk a fine line here buddy.
|
ForGG delivers when he needs to sometimes
|
Don't worry I'm sure RorO will fail somehow and allow us an epic ace.
|
TvZ is forgg best MU, can't he avoid the fail?

Can't Flash diguise himself as ForGG and take the game for him? And then win the ace match himself? Then KT would litterally be an unstoppable one-man team,

mbc needs to play that foofighter's tune to motivate failgg

Now its that amount of probe death that loses Pure games. He's really good but its that carelessness that annoys me.
Good for Pure that he chose to chuck a secret expo and made sure Violet never had any intel, allowing him to pretty much get an army that big to 1a2a3a into Violet's base.

Theoretically fOrGG should be the huge favorite here...TvZ was always his best matchup, he's got a lot of good Zergs at KT to practice with, and he has Flash to go to for advice too.
But Roro has the tendency to always do exactly what I don't want him to do.

I hope ForGG wins . Roro is a bad player and yet he fucks-up my anti-team . I don't know why the Wemade fox coatch sends him in the ACE matches when Mind Pure and Shine are better players .

I really question Roro's choice to 3 hatch v fucking ForGG.
|
|
|
|
|
Looks like 3 hatch muta... spire going down now. Quite a few lings made by Roro, he might try to be superaggressive early on
|
Ok lol, forgg red terran playing standard in the 2 position on moon glave, roro yellow zerg going 3 hatch muta in the 7 oclock position
|

He probably should just give up on flying things ever again this match.
On a side note, I did like the one marine medic who killed three mutalisks.

ForGG loses the vessel he doesn't even have yet?

Its games like this one that remind me why i've never liked forGG. Perhaps actively disliked would be closer to the truth.
He makes tons of units, but lacks the skill to use them properly.

send barracks or sair out instead please!

he can beat this roro chobo ez too even though he's really behind T_T

You gotta give him credit for his macro. He just keeps losing army after army, but he still hasnt lost the game.

lol roro didnt even take a defiler with this drop mocking forgg that is
|
If only Violet had won we wouldn't have to rely on THIS
|
He's playing like he never played zerg before.
|
Where's is ForGG's game sense? Attack one of Roro's expos!!
|
|
|
someone spawn 12 bcs for forgg so he can fight back
|
oh my, plague on all forgg's vessels.
|
Doom drop got deflected with one barrack lost, lots of other shit damage but nothing elese destroyed. He's doing a good job of salvaging being terrible.
|
another drop from roro to seal the deal
|
whats with the sending of a couple dropships to exactly the same place every time, despite knowing that roro knows its coming.
|
It could be worse... on second thought his main was just re-dropped, scratch that
|
2nd drop succesfull though.
|
there's no way he'll win now.his losing air units carelessly against scourges
|
Deos forgg not know terran buildings can lift off?
|
Lol, second doom drop, catches science research, stargate and factory, plague on marines that came to defend. ForGG may start suspecting he's in trouble.
|
today -17 in fpl, can someone top this :D

forgg gg's
I feel bad for Flash lol

its usually a bad thing when you opponent have more ultras than you have marines
forgg fails again!

tanks get rolled by cows, production is gone, just GG already. there it is. Flash 1-0 KT 0-3

That was a great 3 games followed by a hilarious fourth. Good set though, overall.
EDIT: Hey Flash, welcome to JDville.

It's great to finally predict the winner right \o/

A fOrGG (macro) + Flash (micro) team melee would be unstoppable lol

No. For there to be an ace match, one of three of Flash`s teammates must have won a game. That was far too hard a task for them, though, so it`s back home for the team.

If ForGG can go back to his 2008 macro form, he would be considered one of the top Terran players.

i think violet is a good player and can do a respectable peformance, had he won his game today kt would've on. But kt shouldn't depend in 2 players only

To bad Mind lost, but i was against flash after all :>

Violet didnt play bad vs Pure btw he just encountered a play that he surely had 0 practice vs, and wasnt this like his second loss in the entire proleague so far this season? Nah KT is alot stronger then Oz imo, and the scoreboard says the same.

yeah KT loses and people seem to be forgetting that they are freaking 13-3 this season. 815 lost a zvz, violet got ninja'd, forgg was himself, wtf guys, are you expecting KT to go 10-1 every round??

OMFG ! GOOD JOB WeMade FOX !!!
|
Pure is a good PvP player it's not a shame losing to him . Violet is still a pretty reliable protoss even more then Best and JangBi this season .

KT and Wemade both fielded a good lineup, but Wemade played better today. I'm surprised how everybody is suddenly flaming at KT so hard.. I mean, they lost to CJ twice in the EXACT same way. I blame it on Failgg

He's never really come back into form after "falling down the stairs". I prefer the conspiracy that Coach Cho pushed him down the stairs after he beat Jaedong in Arena MSL.

Both of these teams tend to buy a lot of players and rely on their $$$$ to field strong lineups, and they rely on these big names to carry the team to the Proleague Grand Finals.
|
why the heck did KT send out forgg AND 815? :p Just cause mediocre lineup worked once, they think it does again?
ESPECIALLY when you cant expect Flash to go out as Ace, I mean he has MSL/OSL games later this week. You cant force him to practice for Ace too. This was horrible decision making from KT.

KT's lineup was good in theory, but back to KTFlash I guess.

ForGG fell off the stairs hence he wasn't able to participate in 2008's Allstar

Good to see that Flash continues his monster streak. 21 consecutive wins in TvT is just insane.
Too bad this time all other guys lost... I am not surprised that ForGG failed (he fials pretty much all the time) but too bad that Violet or 815 couldn't pull out a win. I'm sure in the ace Flash would dispatch any opponent thrown at him.
|
holy shit... what's Flash's current TvT killing spree???
|
Hmm, Flash. 23 wins vs Terran in official games. Pretttttttty nutty.
|
I think Flash's TvT winning streak was like JD ZvZ streak. Players might be able to catch up but not anytime soon.

why do you think Flash would have been sent out on ace?
preparing for ace matches requires you to practice three different matchups, Flash has no time to practice TvP even though the chances are quite slim of Fox sending out a protoss.

Hes sucked ever since stork raped him in WCG 2008, like a day before/after he got knocked out in incruit, etc. He had a lot of games in a very fast period and right around there his play began to falter. Who knows why.

ForGG might be terrible, but what the hell I was thinking when I put Roro on my anti-team?

The lineup was fine. Things just didn't work out this time.
815 and Violet got their best matchup.
As for forgg, I think they're trying to get him in shape so that Flash can have a rest coming up with some heavy games.

Jaedong never actually had a very long, uninterrupted ZvZ streak. He just went on several 7, 8, or 9 game winning streaks before dropping one, then continuing with another small streak.
But I think it's not a stretch to say that Flash may very well have the most dominant match up of all time. Jaedong's long time consistency until recently was mind blowing, but +20 games in a row? And given the quality of the games it's not like other terrans are bad at TvT (Like was the case until recently with most zergs). He's just on such a different level.

Well TvT is much easier to get a streak at than ZvZ too. In ZvZ one error means you lose the whole game. In TvT comebacks are possible and not rare at all.

So true so true...

Even though KT loss, I liked that they put what people called a "mediocre" lineup. It gives the other players more confidence and helps towards building an even stronger team. Also, if these players can play consistently, then Flash may have a match or two off for rest while the team will still be competitive.

815 and forgg are old, sending them out hardly justifies towards building an even stronger team.
If KT wants to experiment, send out Stats and one of their younger terrans.

I understand that they are old, but I've always felt that veteran players are like the glue of a team while the youngsters are the dynamic breaths of fresh air. Keeping the veterans sharp will always help the atmosphere of the team. Developing younger players is always a good idea as it makes your team deeper, but having in-form veterans can have the same effect just not for the long term.

awww Yeah perfect night for my fantasy. Flash wins, Mind loses, Wemade wins! Also Pure is totally awesome so him winning is a plus as well

Hardly a surprising result given the lineups.
Flash was going to kill Mind for sure, but the rest of it showed there was a very possible 3-1 coming. First off, Shine is very good at ZvZ and definitely should be favored against 815. If you've bothered to watch Shine's ZvZ, you'll know that besides his good results the quality of his ZvZ is excellent. Roro should easily be favored against a terrible player like ForGG who hasn't shown us anything meaningful for months. Violet is probably slightly favored over Pure, but as long as Wemade got that matchup they could feel pretty good about their chances at a 3-1.

I really disagree. The odds were with KT 100%. Things just don't always work out that way.
815 was 9-1 in his last 10 against zergs including wins over Shine and Jaedong. He's always been an excellent ZvZer.
Violet is a major favorite over Pure. He was 11-2 in his last PvP, including 2 wins over Pure and a win over Bisu in his best matchup. Violet has a 68% in PvP, with only 48% for Pure. There's no "slight" favorite here; Violet is a thousand times better at PvP (among other things), but games don't always go to the favorite.
Forgg isn't the same player he used to be, but Roro never has been (Forgg as bad as he's been, still has a higher ELO). They're both mediocre players these days; there's no favorite anymore.

Aw...I really expected KT to take this one...
meh...
|
VIOLET NOOOO
guess i will have to wait for the vod to see what happened
|
Yeah, KT losing was definitely an upset.
Flash does such a good job being KT's anchor, though. They never have to suffer humiliating 0-3 defeats, so they can always think "Hey, if we could have just won ONE more game, we could have cleaned up in ace". And in the rare instances Flash does drop his game, it seems to send his teammates into revenge rape-mode and they pull through for him.
|
Pure is really good at pvp, despite his tlpd..him beating Violet isnt a shocker as violets pvp isnt a thousand times better. Id only be worried about Pure vs someone like Stork or Bisu, and maybe like jangbi or kal.
|
wow... fox won? O___O and Flash is still on his ridiculous TvT win streak
|
God Flash really is the ultimate weapon. Too bad the rest of KT didn't show up. Flash has taken down just about every single big terran and seemingly with ease. Seriously, as long as he doesn't go for 14cc there doesn't seem to be an answer to his game.

I bet a 5 pooling zerg that does not get scouted right away will beat flash hands down.

If it was that easy, someone would have tried it by now. Flash's SCV micro is probably way too good.

Yeah, not to mention Flash scouts anyways.

stats mean jack shit in a matchup like zvz (argue for jaedong all you want but most of the time it's either superiority of skill or bo win) pure is a really underrated player. forgg always sucked and will keep sucking, especially when he is the underdog against someone like roro.

Lol, I kinda meant TvT so I guess BBS would be similar, but yeah, I feel like right now, if someone cheesed him, he would scout it right off, no matter where it is hidden, he is just that good.

Nowadays Flash plays in a way that cheese such as BBS most likely wont work, however I was thinking that 14cc may work against Flash, since he is playing a bit conservatively in the begininng.
