Though I am super happy for Flash I feel a bit sorry for Free. He looked totally mentally broken. I mean, he seemed to be confident and I'm sure he practice a lot only to get rolled by Flash. | ||

This was the theme throughout their series. The games lasted around 20 minutes and Flash's micro/macro was victorious in the end. Pure had no chance. vs. Free - Flash went with a forward rax in both the first games! Free was probably expecting a 14CC into quick expand and then a macro game where he maybe stood a bigger chance against Flash then Pure. But Flash just shut it down! Then with a 2-0 lead, both players start playing standard, Flash runs over Free in the third set. Free is a dangerous opponent, as was shown by the second half of their game on Match Point. Glad Flash pulled through. Im sure Flash could have won against Pure faster in their games. Maybe he just wanted to make Free feel secure about the 12 nexus strategy and get some easy wins. Also why would flash play to Free's strength in macro, he exploited his build asap, with pure he could afford a macro war where he was sure to prevail, against free that would be more risky. Either way Im a bit dissapointed free didnt take a game. Oh well. | ||

Is there any reason we shouldn't be rolling out the B-word here? Yes. #2 on the ELO list. By the way, Flash has played 14 games against the dragons this year...and won EVERY FRIGGIN GAME. Sick, sick, sick. | ||
