8 rax isn't cheese. It wasn't even that much of a proxy, just a forward rax outside the normal ovie scouting pattern. Plus, Jaedong scouted it anyways, he should have reacted better. Flash played better and that's why he won.

Jaedong scouted the fucking marine that killed the overlord. Not the fucking cheese, and yes this is a fucking cheese. I'm not even a jaedong fan and i'm disappointed.


It's not cheese...

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=108196
If Jaedong didn't realise that the timing of the marine was that of an 8rax he deserves to lose that game seeing that marine gave jaedong all the information he needed. Jaedong fucked up, Flash didnt. End of discussion!

what 8 rax ffs? Learn to count
i didn't see what rax it was, but it was rax before supply so regardless, the marine timing was significantly earlier. Point still stands.


It was 8rax

OGN's build counter only counts units that are 100% built

Otherwise Jaedong was at 9 supply after his overlord built and larva spent and he did 11 hatch

He lost an overlord because of the changed terran of HBR. Are you arguing that a proxy whatever rax followed by pulled SCVs and a bunker rush is NOT cheese?
No I'm arguing that Jaedong should have known what was coming rofl of course it was cheese but it's not like Jaedong didn't have sufficient information to know the cheese was coming. He should have cancelled the hatch at the very least.

Almost all the strategy threads I read say not to cancel the hatchery. And he lost an overlord. I bolded it to draw emphasis.

Zerg doesn't expect Terran to be exceptionally aggressive in the early game, so they early expand. Flash, expecting this proxied a rax, scouted an early expansion and punished Jaedong. Call it cheese or a sound strategy, Flash beat Jaedong. The OSL is a competition and this is competitive gaming. Players do whatever they can to win.

all you people should be raging at the OSL for the fact that Flash vs Jaedong was a quarterfinals matchup. the MSL does not have this problem

Disagree. Flash vs Jaedong as a bo5 would be even more of a let down.

Less of a let down than a bo5 finals between Flash and anyone other than Stork though. Barring Stork making the finals (which would be AMAZING) Flash is going to rape his way to an OSL victory - and I'll be happy that a deserving player can claim another title - but it won't be interesting.

Why Flash's strategy was cheese:
If Jaedong built some pool first build order to prevent Flash from bunker rushing, Flash would be wayyyy behind economically

true story


Wrong. If Jaedong went 9 pool he would have lost his overlord and won't be able to build lings and Flash would have stayed in his base and still have an advantage. Don't get me wrong, Flash's build does not hold the advantage against all other Zerg builds, but if you add the lost overlord, it has an advantage against any 9 pool / 12 hatch build.

it said 7 while it was definitely 8. does it not count units that are building?

Am i the only one who actually counted when the observers showed Flash's mieralilines and pointed out every single one of those 6 scvs?

all 6 of those scvs + the one building + the one on the barracks

Yeah I was about to say. lol


so 8rax?

no such thing as "cheese" it's just a risky early aggression that punishes those who should've known better.

Flash never cheeses. I was waiting till Flash cheese for once and he finaly did. Mixing cheese with the standard play will only make him that much more dangerous.

you're either a troll, retarded, or both.

are you a retarded troll?

what lebesgue said is true. the commentators were saying the same thing the entire time as well.

flash never cheeses? are you fucking kidding me?

It's that damn new map. Zergs will have to re-route their ovies from now on because i'd bet more terran start sniping that first one that can no longer hide on cliffs.

A very harsh side-effect for zerg on this map post-changes.

And as Naruto already said, even if JD had fended this off, he would have been EVEN at best. the way he reacted to the rush was just not good, getting his 2nd sunken in range of the bunker for example.

I both rather like Movie and Pure (and Stork ofcourse but i've liked his style for ages), as opposed to Stats or Guemchi, so go protoss today!
I'm a man of my word, and that word is "unreliable".

i counted 6 when he was sending out his first SCV.
Idra says it's 8. While i do not respect him, he has slightly more knowledge about tvz than i have, so i wont argue on that anymore, but i'll chek the VOD
