JD is making the obvious assumptions when he sees what limited information he can see, while Flash is assuming that JD will make the obvious assumption and modifying his plans to take advantage of that. It's lovely and neutral to say the two players are "roughly on the same level" but Flash is really showing he's thinking one level deeper.

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

Zerg needs to double expand or he dies to mech right away. If terran does an early mech push, Zerg loses if he double-expand. You just need to guess what T will do, and if you know how to select a marine and click P, there's nothing Zerg can do to scout. For some reason it's a taboo to talk about SCBW imbalance but whatever, I have a differing opinion about that.

JD could play safer if the maps weren't T>>Z in the late game, forcing JD to take lots of risks for early advantage.

I will note that Zerg can guarantee the scout on Terran if Zerg gets mutalisks or speed overlord.
My strategy is to fork people.

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.

Your knowledge is so supreme, you should be in the final instead of Jaedong!

Or maybe he's just guessing and being lucky.

I'm 99% sure Flash had his SCV in JD's base before he put the 14CC down. He knew JD didn't 9 pool.


make it 100%

It is the same way he played last MSL final. Always scouting before putting down his cc

Why are people telling Jaedong to go 9pool?

When I had suggested it half a year ago people made fun of me telling terran will just rax expand and zerg will be horribly behind eco-wise...


It's more about mind games than choosing a good strat. Jaedong can go 9 pool, but if Flash counters with a build that is inbetween eco and early aggression than he will be behind eco wise. But considering Flash is so conservative, people are telling J to do something balsy and surprising to turn this series around.

For all it mattered, Jaedong could have been a D zerg, rank 1 diamond, or fucking (Z)(kr)ZergBong. Flash is making SC1 terran look like SC2 terran.

I think what we are seeing in these games are both Flash's brilliance as well as solid KT coaching and preparation similar to what we saw in PL vs SKT.

It's kinda funny how the chat tendencies are on most streams.

When Flash loses, his own fans blame Flash, and JD fans gloat.
When JD loses, his fans are you completely mental and blames everything and everyone else.

Makes it obvious to me which fanbase has followed their player through a couple of deep slumps, and don't expect a win every single time.
