The game kind of came down to calm not doing enough damage with his muta, however you want to interpret that. Flash had either of 3 things. Turrets, 3 rax producing marines (Which can fend Muta Harass off *Enough* to make losing his third GG), or some crazy build that Calm could've just backstabbed and killed. Flash is done with crazy builds. Atleast it seems that way. | ||

Didn't give an inch of his territory and bleeding Calm slowly but surely. It was actually quite beautiful. uh, when has flash's ability to play management games ever been in doubt? it's what he's most known for his nick went from "cheesy bitch" two years ago to "turtle terran" just that recently he has reverted back to using cheeses more often, instead of 14ccing every game and losing to 9 pools everytime | ||

But Flash seems to have grown up between the seasons and now he's truly executing the potential that made everyone think another Oov was about to come about during Bacchus/GSI. And it's so good. TURTLE EAT CLAM The coaches have given him practice time off of proleague matches to practice for this too. | ||

Zergs need to figure out a way to stop Flash's pre-defiler death push. It's insane how much killing power it has. | ||

Calm played a damn near perfect match in set 3, capitalizing on his early advantage, and brutal sci vessel sniping. Still wasn't enough. >_> | ||

However, neither Shine nor Movie even stand the SLIGHTEST chance against this kid. Maybe with some luck the finals will only be 3-1 with either Movie or Shine somehow "squeazing" out a win, but that's it. That being said, Movie and Shine both deserve to get to the finals - especially Shine considering his incredibly hard road and both of em COULD normally win it - if not for the sake of Flash being literally unbeatable right now. | ||

I don't see why 3rd would be a better target if both places are undefended. THen Calm would've been fucked. I think Calm knew Flash had no turrets inside his main (from game re-watching game 3, which I hope he did), but he couldn't risk it. | ||

Movie's road was just as hard, he had to beat Light and By.Hero in the round of 36, than beating Zero in the round of 8. | ||

Hope he chokes Beauty of being a fan is sticking with your player even when he plays like shit, because then when he finally comes back to wreck shit, the feeling's great. I'm still waiting for by.hero to win a Starleague ;O | ||
