JD has to play this way to vs 14cc. If he plays safer, Flash will just eco-roll him late game anyways.

well 3-0 to Flash

going to bed

Just consider how many times has everyone said that in the last few months :-p


haha, yeah really. An attitude like that would have missed you so many epic series.

Besides, even if they aren't the BEST GAMES EVER, they're still very interesting timing attacks by Flash.

This is starting to piss me off and seriously disappoint me. Jaedong/Flash rivalry finals are almost always the most disappointing shit ever, and I don't know why this is such a consistent theme in their finals.



It's like in that film Hero: the true battle is in their minds before the game starts. Whoever wins there just pushes out and wins at once.

Jaedong has a chance because the next two maps are pretty balanced
8/4/12 never forget, never forgive.

Jaedong hasn't drone scouted yet, I wouldn't be surprised if Flash takes advantage with some proxy rax.

Jaedong lost it when he double expanded which meant less units... Flash push punished that... Too greedy play from Jaedong

So, they played 5 final games in a row now. Flash went 13/14 CC everytime and JD always was behind because he always 12 Hatches. Seems like someone just does not learn his lesson. He should have 9-Pooled in the first or second set.

i dont understand this, i fail to see what flash does to win these games

jd was 4bases vs 2 bases, jd harrased with mutas etc, and just lost in 10 minute push
game 2 same exact thing, 10 minute push nothing to do with same food count?

this final is just about as boring as IEM finals, not fun to watch at all.
Because Flash attacks before the 2 extra bases really makes a difference but has a bigger army because JD invested in late game economy.

and if zerg doesnt invest into economy he has no chance of wining anyway? i really dont understand
p.s. im not a player i just watch sc for years now

This feels so much like Flash vs. Stork for Bacchus that first time. Wow everyone with an incredibly strong way of playing long macro games, forcing your opponent to practice long hours to counter it - and then BAM two timing pushes and a BBS spells doom.

I'm a big JD fan but I have to admit, FLash's play is just amazing. I think a lot of people are missing the beauty of the timing attacks. There is a little bit of coincidence/luck/pre-game prep involved as well.

For example in game 2, JD was planning to hydra bust like he attempted vs light in the semifinals. If Flash turreted like light did, JD would have gained an advantage. But instead, Flash counters with his own push that comes before JD's.

Seriously, this needs less 12 hatch and more 9 pool speed.

im starting to remember why i stopped watching korean BW 1 year ago

at least make it 3-1, enough with these one sided finals -,-'

but superb play by flash

yeah lets stop watching pro scene of greatest game of all time becouse most of the finals are 1 sided lately

Well, if he doesn't enjoy one sided beatings then he should probably stop watching live games and just go for recommended games later.
Dear BW Gods, it IS now autumn, so...

It's pretty incredible how Flash was willing to completely disregard the possibility of Jaedong going for lurkers; in terms of both strategic thinking and having the balls to ignore such a dangerous possibility

yep, but zergs usually get lurks pretty late if they spot golis

very bad played by jD


no. he did the right counter. going mutas would have been like typing gg right away.
the +1 armor really made a difference for flash here imo.
also, some earlier sunkens could have hold flash back for at least some time to prepare for a nice flank


what jd needed was less drones, better positioning/flank, faster sunken.


exactly, but the problem is that JD scouted it too late, which isnt his fail. Flash just did a good job covering his base, not letting lings in, force awy scouting OLs etc.
When JD realised how many Goliaths flash had, he already was on that many drones and all he could do was hoping to crush the first attack to come back. therefor his sunkens were too late and he had too few hydras.
