And I agree, hard to expect a deep analysis when you're watching game and typing at the same time. One-liners are often really enough. They actualy make LR really exciting to read | ||

Some of the lines like best wtf and MINES are clearly +1 postcount spammers. Others with better game description like best adding gates but its too late seems fine. | ||

This indicates to me that Flash won the mind-game for this game before it started. I have no idea what Best was thinking. Yes his build was tailored to "normal Flash play", but he should have known that Flash never plays normal against him--every time Flash and Best have played in the past, Flash has paid the price for being overly aggressive. Best should have known going into the game that he was going to see an early push, and should have set up a defensive posture for it, without getting too greedy. Basically, Best had the psychological advantage and he threw it away. | ||

He's no weakie (66% lifetime is very good), but as several posters have pointed out, the dragons in particular have given him trouble. No matter now, as he finally knocked off Best. Congratulations to our latest dragon slayer...that ruler must be the magic sword. | ||

I'd chock that up more to Flash only ever got to play the dragons on really hard maps, TvPwise. Most of them on Destination, HBR or Medusa. He honestly should've won more of them but when you're playing an excellent protoss on one of those three, then you've already got your work cut out for you. | ||

Clearly he'll win 2-1, and still win the finals when he gets to them, but the only real way to win the MSL is by going completely undefeated. :\ | ||

+ Show Spoiler + As we saw in Hwasin vs Kal, Hwasin made a horrible decision in attacking a huge army of goons with a not so huge army of unsieged tanks. Now I've seen this whole unsieged tanks deal quite a few times in pro TvP and I'm wondering why exactly the pros do this. What is going through their heads? I have a few guesses but I'm not totally sure: -Unsieged tanks can retreat from zealots. -Unsieged tanks can gain ground more quickly and are great for early game aggression since low toss numbers = less splash damage from siege. See TurN vs Bisu. -Unsieged tanks' single target DPS is only slightly lower than that of sieged tanks (see http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?currentpage=All&topic_id=28699 ), thus making them favored in circumstances where they'll need to chase or face spread out units. | ||
