He was king of TvT for the first 20 minutes. Then the king of killing all audience interest in brood war for the rest of the game if the most devoted fans, the fans in the seats in the audience are falling asleep, that's bad news.
Well why do you blame skyhigh blame Flash . Flash was defending almost the entire game ...
Well.... Since flash did overthrow JD I guess it only makes sense that his once undeniably invincible mirror matchup suddenly is not so invincible anymore. I wouldn't worry though. They were all pretty close games after all. And flash (JD?) almost made his patented comeback win from behind.

He did switch up this game, but also made some really ugly mistakes.
True, he went wraiths. Skyhigh outsmarted him there, or got lucky by doing the same thing, and he had better control during that phase of the game. Then things started going downhill pretty fast.
Not too long. You gotta love TvT for what it is! GG Skyhigh... no point in throwing it away. Sure it's easy to say "just finish it"... but when you're playing vs Flash and actually have an advantage in the booth, you might act differently.
It was a good game. Exciting lead switches. Near the end it sort of dragged, but watching Flash claw his way back up with drops was impressive. I never knew how big skyhigh's army was but Flash had alot of tanks seiged up disallowing Skyhigh to mine from a couple bases.

Maybe KT needs to develop some other ACE options so the opponents can't only practice against Terran? And not only practicing against any Terran, but a specific Terran.
I think KT should stop sending out Flash for ACE matches. Opponents keep sending out mediocre players who are just strong against terran, and all it would take is sending out someone like Stats/Violet to roll over the guy expecting Flash.

Same applies to JD, no? And yet JD is undefeated in ace matches over the entire season. While Flash has 4 ace match losses in this round alone... I think Flash is definitely slipping, and/or other Terrans are catching up the way Zergs caught up to JD a little while ago.

Yes, the game was boring because Flash that should have GG before.

There was also the moment where Flash had almost come back, but then decided to do an idiotic drop in Skyhigh's base. And numerous occasions where he scanned enemy siege tanks too late.
EPT
... Oh well he should take it easy before playoffs imo.
