It was a poor decision to just charge up straight on. Flash's positioning was literally perfect. And that was such a sick timing push -__- | ||

And when he did have sufficient amount Flash had reinforced himself with more tanks.  | ||

Dragoon/gateway count. Maybe a lucky scan on the main where free expo'd to as well | ||

Goon count when Free attacked his front door, I guess. Free showed the size of his army for a very long time, and probably Flash was able to know the timing of his expo this way. I guess. | ||

Flash is just insane w/ his strategies and timing windows.. He must've discovered that timing window to destroy free from practice, I imagine it would've worked very well in most situations.. | ||

I expect that once you get to S-class, the timings are down in your head. You will know when there's a timing window if you went X and he went Y and expanded at Z timing. | ||

and maybe free backed off too much from flash's attack on 4.5 Wow Flash looks nonchalant. | ||
