you guys clearly dont understand why flash did it..
he was behind so he wanted his expo to start running fastest as possible, so he lifted cc and rax - he though harrass was over, he didnt saw any lings [except 2 eggs which he assumed were drones] - he cant build bunker also in this posinion - come on - his was so behind in eco, that another -100 was to much for him.

Yeah you're totally right.
At this level of Stracraft you can't come from behind.
You HAVE to cut every corner to win. If Flash makes a bunker and marines "just in case" he's already lost. His only chance was to take a guess (Jaedong is macroing no more lings) and play from there.

I used to think you can't come from behind but then I saw some awesome games and lost that pessimism. Between Flash and Jaedong, though, the room for error is awfully tiny indeed. But if one can mess up, surely the other is fallible, too.


With 4 scvs lost and no gas against jaedong soon to be on 3 bases unharmed - you need to take some risks.

i guess we can all agree that both semifinals were lik 1000x better in terms of spectating..


This times a million. Game 3 is the only one worth watching and it wasn't even a good game; only appeared so from the hype surrounding it. Although flash's scourge dodge was sexy as was JD's defense of his 2nd 3rd.


Game 3 wasnt good...?


It was good because of the hype, but realistically it wasn't anything special. Bio moved out as swarm got up and after that Flash never was in the game because it led directly to his failed attack on the 3rd. It wasn't a bad game by any stretch (especially compared to the other 3), but it's not one that I'd recommend to anybody if it weren't an MSL final.


both players are so good that they can really easily capitalize on small mistakes the other makes

i really think series between two players of such high skill level are more likely to be 1 sided than ones that aren't


I would tend to agree with this. The openings for attacks and exploiting weakness by either side can be punished mercilessly and "playing it safe" doesn't come in as often when those opportunities are seen, whereas lesser gamers might hesitate.

You know, in some ways, even though I'm supporting Jaedong, it wouldn't be so bad if he loses - NaDa will still be on top with 6 slams (3 OSL's, 3 MSL's). Jaedong would be stuck on 5, and Flash would have 4. Looks fine!

I like how Flash is willing to put his ass on the line a little bit, because he's so damn confident in his macro game.
