flash's weakness - going 2 - 0 then losing one or two games carelessly, followed by a brilliant 3rd win.... you heard it here! ; )

if fantasy steals this series it is a crime uh, why would it be a crime if Fantasy outplays Flash in the last 3 games of the set? wtf are you saying? nobody could possibly argue that fantasy has outplayed flash today. what a ridiculous contention that's just fanboyism biasedness in you, sure fantasy made an unforgivable (?) mistake in set 3 and played pretty bad, but set 4 was absolutely perfect play by fantasy fantasy threw away sets 1 and 2; flash played some of the most amazing TvT ever witnessed to come back from deficits that you yourself said over and over were irreparable. the fact that in games 3 and 4 those deficits proved too large does nothing to change the fact that fantasy has greedily expanded and flash has still managed to keep up with him. Yeah. Flash would NEVER 14CC amirite? i'm not talking about flash and fantasy as players. i'm talking about THIS SET. Taking risks to gain an advantage is a big part of a Bo5. Flash is often great at it. Sure Flash has played better for most of this series, but its not like Fantasy has won by doing really all in builds, so I'd say he is very much so deserving if he wins, just as Flash will be if he wins.
i would never say fantasy doesn't "deserve" to win if he wins. however, i think it's fair to say that a lot of fantasy's advantage has been from preparation - which is of course a huge part of a Bo5 - flash has shown that he is able to overcome even the most enormous deficits created by poorer preparation, build-order disadvantages, and early mistakes. the idea that this last set determines who is "top dog" between Flash and Fantasy is ridiculous - the answer is obvious, despite fantasy having played a good set (and possibly winning - let's see how it goes)

they are currently around 1,100 viewers on three stream for sc2.
bw has one and it has 1,800
Not only that, but the SC2 streams are running smoothly.
One of the greatest Bo5 series throughout Starcraft's historry and streamers prefer to go with a subpar SC2 event.
:/
Everyone's thinking it... I'm just gonna shout it...
GAY.

At this rate we'll call normal opening builds "standard cheese" - builds that put you way ahead if you damage your opponent without dying. I have no idea what you are on about. There is a spectrum of openings that goes from "aggressive" to "economic". The extremes of that spectrum are cheese. Maybe you don't want to call 14cc economic cheese and maybe I'll give you that semantic bit but you cannot deny that 14cc is a risky build that puts you far ahead if you can get away with it.
Any build has its risks. If you play standard it's a risk you take that can put you far ahead if you defend against an aggressive opener or your first attack goes well. My point is that somehow extending the term "cheese" to greedy openings is unreasonable
No gas for Fantasy after rax

fantasy was so sloppy with his decisions,he has good strategy(pretty much all oov imo) but his tatics are epic ballz(except his vultures)and flash sucks at bo5 when it goes past 3 games

1 rax gas cc as a response by flash, Fantasy's scouting scv arrives in Flash's main
