So what did you want him to do at that point? Transition into a macro game when he hasn't mined his 3rd gas and his Lair was just starting? We saw how that turned out

Game 2 was not a blind 14 cc. SCV scout checked to see if JD was cross position, when he saw that he put down the CC. Had he not seen JD cross position he would've walled with rax -> fast CC.

If you prep for 3 weeks and have NO builds that counter 14 CC (oh like I dunno 9 pool or JAEDONG SIGNATURE 2 hatch muta), then you either deserve to lose or you threw those games.
I was rooting for Flash, but Jaedong's builds could have been so much better if they were just a little bit aggressive. I swear it was like watching NR20, NR10 and NR10 games. I know they are probably honorable in not rushing each other but fuck, do what you have to do to win.

Also game 3 what the fuck were those hydra busts after Flash got his tanks? You sniped 2 bunkers and 4 rines in exchange for 20 hydras? Lol?





And what was Jaedong supposed to do. After he pumped so many hydras he had to try a bust...

I can't fucking believe flash held off that all-in hydra bust with 2 goliaths and scvs. That was insane.



This. Seeing a screen's worth of hydras with speed just streaming to a nearly empty wall, and then seeing him HOLD IT OFF was amazing.


The vult scouted the hydra rush. As soon as it did - Flash built a bunker,put rhines in, and gathered all his scvs from his nat around it. I guess from a Flash fan perspective it was exciting, but for me it just looked like he took the logical step and it worked.

Jaedong on the other hand should have realized that Flash had it held off and would have better chances of winning had he choose a new strat, rather then having 4-5 tanks and 12 gols knocking at his door minutes later. The massive hydra loses to sniping those 2 bunkers didn't help him too much either.

JD's decision making was poor and there was nothing exciting about it.


C'mon. The bunker went down to like 60 hp. Had it went down it would have been over. It reminded me the Heartbreak Ridge game and the bunker rush there. Same kind of tension.


Yeah - I guess you have a point there. For some reason I was confused, thinking that JD had the game in the bag and then realized the bunker did not go down, and then I didn't know what to think. Guess I'm just aggravated that it all came down to a bunker in the the final match that and:
1 bunker, 3 rhines, 10 scvs > 20 hydras.

Did you watch the same games I did? Game 2 he clearly scouted the 12 hatch before making his cc. The dude watching even pointed this out by showing scv next to hatch, then back to flash's nat and highlighting the scv that only then built the cc.

You can only be cross position on Odd-Eye

Contain, double expand, make mutas, then try a big flank when Flash moved out. It certainly works better than suiciding.

Somehow people haven't been whining so much about 3 hatch before the pool that JAedong pulled out last time they met.

Effort also used it and it was ok.

Now Flash does 14 CC AFTER scouting and it is a big deal...

Nope, Kwanro had the exact same chance last MSL, Flash went early rax against him, but Kwanro 12hatched like every game.
