Beautiful read by Flash. This is the exact kind of build that caused him to get knocked out of the MSL by Kwanro to fans' cries of "why don't you build turrets?" He's just using it better, and early gas plus no ebay and no turrets seems like it winds up in a lot of goliaths midgame.

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.


Uh no when Jaedong did a Hydra bust vs Light he didn't go Lair. It was a lot faster then what it looked like he was gonna do there.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Wow, that was tough for Jaedong. Flash's upgrade arrived first, while hydra attack was too late for the battle. Jaedong even canceled air carapace to try to deal with it.

I'm pretty sure he had +1 armor in the first game too.

I'm wondering what the math behind that is?

Given that goliaths have +1 armor, they have 125 hit points and hydras do 10 damage -1 for the armor, they normally need 13 hits to kill a goliath, but with armor they need 14 hits, so one extra hit.


Goliaths start with 1 armor, so instead of 14 hits normally, +1 armor goliaths take 16 hydra hits to kill.

This is what happens if you make maps that allow terrans to expand and tech up at the same time, with no other starting locations for zergs to exploit. Zerg has to play on even bases and then die a horrible late game death. Jaedong knew that he had to cut every corner he could in order to have a chance of winning at the late game stages. Flash knew this also. What does he do? He chooses the builds that counter the only choice of a build order that Jaedong can take if he is to play a standard game.

jd is playing this like he would a standard ZvMech, where the terran turtles off 2 base for 15 mins while the zerg is allowed to take 6 bases. Flash isn't in the mood to play along.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

hmm i think the +1 armor is more to tank mutas damage rather than hydras' ...

but hey he's fucking Flash and i'm just a lowly peasant so what do i know?

Flash skipped comsats in both games and Jaedong didn't have a single lurker.



Flash had comstats both games. =x

Did you not see him scan the muta positions in the first game?

There really is not much to it, Jaedong is simply approaching it all wrong like the last finals. Sack the fucking Overlord for gods sake to see the 4 factories ==> research lurkers, then expand.
He let Flash get away with the fifth 14CC in a row, and tries to win a macrogame (4 out of 5 times) but he. will. not. win those. He shows no real dangerous early aggression whatsoever. Sometimes it's not the worst thing to learn from EffOrt.

Flashs late-game terran cannot be taken down by Jaedong currently. Jaedong expands like crazy and then Flash just does a strong timing push and it's gg because Jaedong isn't prepaired because of all those hatcheries and no units.

These finals really make me mad.
