So many terrans still continue with 1 fac cc after scouting 12nex - but it seems to put them so behind
maybe they need to take a page from flash and at least try a bunker rush? flash rushes even if he scouts the 12nex relatively late.

That's the problem - the other terrans aren't Flash.

What is the success rate of other terrans trying to pull off Flash's super FD push thingy? They're not Flash so they can't pull it off so they don't bother doing it.

Rushing a 12nex takes confidence (and skill). They'd rather play it safe and hope they can outperform in the late (ideally in the midgame.. but you know..) game and advance instead of trying to punish the other guy...

Funny considering Mind was once the king of timing pushes TvP.

Guess I'll go rewatch all his games against Bisu in the MSL finals to prevent from falling into depression

well, continuing with 1 fact cc also puts them way behind, so they should at least give it a try...

goooooo ruby! I want to see ACE succeed, no matter how unlikely it is...

It would be so great if Ruby could advance. The Starleagues need more ACE players. Go Ruby!

chavi scouting to ensure there's no proxy rax or anything?
ruby delays the nat hatch for a bit

3rd hatch added in main - ruby sending out a 2nd scouting scv - oh, the old damaged scv switches out

Weird, Ruby sends out a 2nd scouting SCV while his first is still in Ruby's base. The two SCVs pass each other somewhere around Ruby's natural. Mistake? Or just wanted a fresh HP scouting SCV . . .
