Don't say irresponsible things like "any other terran". Believe it or not, there are good Terran players other than Flash.


I'm aware there are other good terrans but give me an example of one that could have held that stuff off and don't say really.
What, because Really could have done it I can't say his name? Along with Fantasy, Leta, Sea[Shield] in proleague, and Hiya who has great TvP...

Movie isn't really doing that great, between nerves and how his play style is naturally pretty sloppy in the first place.

Terrible terrible execution by Movie in basically everything he attempted.

I disagree. His reaver micro was excellent, remember shuttles have less sight range than tanks have range, often you can't see the shit that kills you. His build was clever and had he not lost his first reaver it would have been devastating. His problem was that as good as he was, Flash was better.


Well, there was absolutely no reason to lose the first reaver. He dropped it behind Flash's mineral line, a good scarab went off and then his shuttle should have gathered it back right away. It didn't and that was quite damn bad to me.

And he shouldn't have lost the DT either. He saw the turret building, he could see the HPs. The shuttle was there. Not as big a deal as the reaver since (I think) scan was on its way but still, it was quite bad.

Also basically every break he attempted was quite poorly executed imo (at least compared to any S-class PvT players like Stork), especially that time when he dropped the reaver/zealots right in the middle of Flash's defensive army and THEN sent his army in. That's again pretty damn bad synchronisation-wise.

Again, nervousness probably isn't helping, but Movie's execution has been quite abysimal these games, imho. (His builds are very good though but it's another story.)

Strategically he raped Flash game 1 too. He used the gas steal into proxy elevator rush (see liquipedia) but Flash was too good and scouted it. He then transitioned into hardcore macro play, did a sexy twin observer to get in and see flash's fact count (this was HUGE) and stole Flash's 4th. That is also huge because Flash can always take and hold that base eventually but Movie can do the same with his. They're safe bases. Every mineral Movie mined there was a mineral Flash couldn't.
It was insanely good strategically. He then followed it up with twin forge twin stargate fast arbiter while running his army around pretending to be aggressive. And Flash bought it hook, line and sinker and was a long way behind. If you put a Protoss and Terran player of the same skill in that game at that time it'd be over. It was just Flash was so incredible at dealing with it that Movie couldn't win. Flash blocked recalls with a line of turrets and mines, Movie hallucinates beyond the mines. Flash has to mine everywhere and Movie feints at the main with hallucinations and smashes into the mineral only. Everything Movie did that game was genius. Incredible strategic play. Had it been anyone but Flash they'd have lost it several times over. It is unfortunate to Movie that despite being easily the 3rd best player in the world right now he's thrown against the 1st.

doubt that, did you see hiya's play? Remember movie is a rookie, this is high pressure for him. The play he showed wasn't "great play". I think a good way to look at the situation is if STORK had been in flash's base with a reaver/dt/zlots, I'll bet any amount of money he woulda gotten more outta it.


So you didn't see Stork get stomped on tornado? Are you going to tell me that game looked any better? Movie has been playing superb.

He's playing at the level of a victorious finalist in any other starleague. Being given Flash is just bad luck.

A pretty sad starleague imo, since his play is so sloppy and lackluster.

I think basically any Terran would have stopped the initial rush at least, when you consider the fact Movie left a reaver alone twice outside of turret range and let the DT die before scan too.
