wow to everyone exaggerating about Kwanro economy, you guys should reread the thread since flash and kwanro begins. Flash had his 3rd setup when kwanro was getting a 4th and also killed kwanro's 4th hatch with vultures, even if your memory isn't good then the thread could be a reference.



The "Hatchery Constrained Rule": Economy is constrained by hatcheries, not by minerals. Kwanro was 'decently' ahead through early-mid game. Losing the two valkyries, forcing Flash to transfer all the scv’s, putting the T back on 1 base mineral and GAS. The reason why GAS is a huge factor in this situation is because of how Flash chose to spend his initial gas=2 valkyries which killed 1 ovie, thus delaying science vessel production, upgrades, etc etc etc… and realistically making tech (mech) switching harder to pull off. Here I will not even consider the units Flash lost in the process. Now ask yourself was Kwanro ahead? At their programming level, the Zerg at a pretty GOOD favor, and shortly after the lurkers died off we already see hive finishing and the defiler mount building, and not a single science vessel yet. I even question if the science facility was even done, didn’t notice it during the game.

Do not be blinded, just because he’s Flash, Kwanro should have had the game in the bag. Flash won, mainly because of Kwanro bad unit composition, suiciding units to mines, and unsaturated bases, and being overly aggressive.

Another thing that was ridiculously stupid was people saying that if Kwanro tech switched, it wouldn’t matter because “if Flash saw mutas, within 1 minute Flash would have had 900 Goliaths and just anal rape Kwanro”. The reason why this logic is so utterly retarded is because first off Muta’s are one the key units in beating Mech. In this situation, there was a WINDOW, where if Kwanro tech switched, it would have done decent damage to Flash. Last time I checked, tanks and vultures do not do damage to Mutas. With proper muta control, Flash’s army will be trimmed down, forcing Flash to move back and more turrets, + giving Kwanro more map control before Flash goliath’s count mass up.

In SC, you constantly make units that counter to your opponents units. Let’s put the previously retarded logic into play. I’m playing Terran, and I see 24 lings coming right into my base. (Lets just consider unit composition, no time for bunker or scv block or w.e.) I DO NOT want to make firebats because I know mutas will be coming shortly. Another example is, I’m playing Protoss, and I see lurkers, I do not want to make dragoons because ‘within 1 minute’ I’ll be anal raped by a group of hydra’s and lings.

so many words.
so little sense.

Kwanro should have made mutalisk after seeing a tank and vulture only army. Even if flash can get goliaths easily, the mutalisks still could have done surprise damage. Its way more effective than Ultralisks vs spider mines.


Yeah the point vs mech is to abuse immobility, not run endless units into their lines. Mutas can move back and forth between the bases, outrun goliaths very effectively.

kwanro played the way he played cus he was waaaay ahead

dropping ultras on tanks in mine field totally works if flash hadn't controlled his tanks so well

only problem is flash controlled his tanks too fkin well

@Etopen Go to liquipedia or the search function on how to beat mech + listen to day[9]/ahzz. Cause i don't think you know the weakness in mech is...

Main point is Kwanro threw away a game he should of won, totally wrong unit composition, and eating mines like shit + overly aggressive.

LOL @ the minesweeper pic.

It's funny how people always seem to "throw away" games against Flash. Hmm, I wonder what it could mean.

It means that people get huge advantages that they, in any normal scenario, are guaranteed to win, and then piss away their advantage and underestimate Flash's capability to make game changing decisions in an almost rapid-fire like fashion. Flash's in-game adaptability is the best there's ever been so he has a particularly high rate of comebacks.

The thing is, it is always at the slight faults of the opponent. It is not a display of Flash's perfection so much as his ability to catch small advantages in high numbers, despite taking a single, enormous disadvantage.

Also, map helped. Pretty nice to be able to tank push a high ground and snipe expansions that way, on a map with several small passageways that make vulture runbys effective but make engaging a terran ball suicide thanks to splash.

Really, it's a cacophony of things

It means that unless you're Jaedong or Stork, you should all-in every single game and GG if it goes longer than 12 minutes. Even when it looks like Flash is losing, he's actually winning.
May the BeSt man win.

Muta switch, no up muta vs upped mech, where gols are easily spam massed? At least ultras still kill stuff while they die miserable deaths, a muta switch would have done little to nothing.

Hey what if you fake Muta switch but then you are actually massing up with Hydra, Zergling army? Those Goliath would go to waste.

What if he double faked thinking Flash would predict the fake but really Flash already made golaiths so the fake fake muta switch wouldn't be that effective?

Disregard the fact that mutas would have been the fairly obvious choice by say.. the 12 minute mark. What about no zerglings for like 20 minutes? Seriously what is wong with Kwanro?? He does know how much damage mines do I hope? This game just makes you wonder about the mystery of Kwanro more and more.,,

Oh totally, a decent player like Jaedong would have predicted that Flash would have predicted the fake fake muta switch and would have triple-faked and then proceeded to destroy Flash, unlike that stupid newbie Kwanro.

But no1 can play perfect. There is always mistakes in the games, and from my experience mistakes end games just as much as a good play does. Flash is good, better then many others, in taking advantage of the mistakes that other players do. As you said. In a way, however, i think it's a display of perfection to take advantage of all the opponents mistakes.
