Wow really nice all in from effort.


Wasn't an allin! And nice sneak in with the lings to kill turret!


He had 2 drones at his expo...


Yeah he would have made drones had Flash not thrown his marines away. Effort smelt blood and went for more. Can't really call a 2 hatch muta an allin when early harass is its main focus.

After the fuckup by flash Effort could've just attack moved his drones with his mutas and it still wouldn't have been all in but rather a free win.

Gotta feel like that was 20% build order and 80% luck giving Effort that win. :/.

Anyways, hopefully we get a good 4th game but I doubt it. Efforts play has been bad this series..

How did effort open this game?


He opened with a hidden 12hatch at 9 followed by pool and gas "faking" a 2 hatch build since Flash expected a third hatch in Effort's natural, but Effort double faked and did a 2 hatch build.


Average person: He went for a 2-hatch!
SuperArc, resident CJ fanboy: He fucking double-faked a 2-hatch!

I know, his hatch placement probably threw flash off, but its still funny :-p


lmao I thought I was the only one who saw "double faked a 2 hatch" and went o.0

And it was fucking sweet. That 3rd is also pretty safe since it takes so much time to get there and you have a nice way to cut off reinforcements in the line from top left base to the 12 o'clock. That and the opponents forces will be spread.

hehe he didn't fake anything wtf...


Why do you think Flash moved out with his rines then?

He didn't expect mass lings but 300 minerals into a third hatch.

I don't think people appreciate the genius of Effort's strategy. He initially showed about 8 zerglings with speed, and started dancing around and trying to get SCV/marine kills. He pretended to "mess up" (or maybe he really did) by letting about half or more of his lings die, and then backed off with the few he had.

Flash, knowing he got a good few zergling kills assumed effort was now going into muta production (since he went 2 hatch lair) and moved out to force sunkens, except effort had made another 8 or so zerglings and had them waiting outside of Flash's base.

In other words Effort purposefully lost a few zerglings to bait Flash, which flash fell for and thus, we have a game 4.

He didn't expect mass lings but 300 minerals into a third hatch.

coz his scv died, he took a chance. Moving out with 10 marines and 2 medics to preassure zergs expansion into making sunkens.
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

Hopefully this restores Effort's confidence and we get a good game 4. I don't want this series to be worse than Flash vs Calm.
