What an amazing come back by Effort giving that it's the OSL finals and it's against Flash, who's arguably the most dominant player ever.

Oh really...?

This thread begs to differ, http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=120125

Effort shouldn't have even gotten out of the Ro16, how can you possibly play 2 previous games and then complain the 3rd game that your mouse isn't working 100%. What a joke.

Least deserved OSL IMO.

Give credit where credit is due people! Flash played horribly after going up 2-0. I was included in the population that thought Flash just gave away game 3. His decisions ultimately cost him the golden mouse. Had he, as everyone stated, played "standard", Effort wouldn't have pulled that ling all-in on Match Point. Now Flash has no reason not to show up against JD next week. Good luck to him and congratulations again to Effort.


BTW, the games sucked ass. LOL

What zerg player is going to 4 pool in the final game of a series? Imo, a lot of players would have too much pride to even be satisfied if they won that way. Flash knew he could 14cc, and obv you are at an adv if your opponent 12 hatches. He probably just got deceived by the fast lair, expecting effort to let up on the lings at some point. To me the blunder is when he proxy raxed. It looked like he canceled a rax without even knowing it was scouted, which makes it even more interesting.

man this is why Terrans rage. You are so much freaking better then your opponent but you can still loss to stupid shit. I know I'm sounding like Idra but Flash is like the beastliest Terran player ever but mass lings and muta allins still kill you.
I'm genuinely angry right now

Retard alert.


Agreed. Seriously, for all you losers saying Effort cheesed his way to victory:

Game 3, Yes Effort went fast mutas, but the ling attack is what won him the game.
Game 4, Flash proxied (CHEESE), Effort responded.
Game 5, Flash 14 cc'd (CHEESE), Effort responded.

And ANY non-retarded person knows Terran has infinitely more cheese options than Zerg has.

It wasn't zergling allin for all the retards caliming so. He just built some zerglings, scouted bs build of Flash and saw clear way to exploit it by building more zerglings.

If Flash defended that effort would have been so far behind it wouldn't have even mattered, that's what you call an "all-in".

Even if Flash defended it, muta's were coming straight after.

FLying those muta over the rines wasn't the smoothest play, but man he deserves this series, very strong play.

yep. what is all this "meh the games were so disappointing bla" about.

flash is probably the best terran in the world, with insane multi tasking/macro and super strong mid/late game play. why would you try to play standard vs him?

reminds me of nony vs idra. and i was cheering for nony there too. aggressive openings against passive macro oriented players is not bad and its not meh or boring, it's just the way to go.

gz effort.hoping for an epic MSL final now

He totally deserved this OSL.

But it's true that it was a pity we didn't see a long macro game between Flash and Effort like that PL match.

To be honest, the only game that I can recommend was game 4 because Effort's defense was BEAUTIFUL.

Effort's defense was nice in game 4, but honestly that game was pretty much over the moment that ovie flew into sight range of those barracks. He was at a MASSIVE advantage at that point scouting that BBS.

I would agree with good decisions in game 3 and 5, but game 4 was more of a bad decision of Flash than a good decision from effort. Flash tried to cheese and failed, after that effort pretty much had the game.
