He outmacroed despite having about 2.7k mins the entire game (even after building 9999 turrets)?
You need to look at his GAS, which was never over 500.
While that's true, look at JD's macro at the same time. He had more bases and still had low minerals and gas.
I don't know what stream you were watching, but JD's gas was constantly over 1000 (low minerals).
I mean if he was massing hydras, then you need to look at MINERALS, until the end where he had defilers and so he could use lurkers, and his gas went down too. So why do you say Flash pretty much outmacroed?
I never said that. I just don't think Flash's macro was off...
Also, to what you were saying: If Flash was massing tanks and gollies, you need to look at GAS. :O
Yeah, I know neither of them macroed badly in any sense. I was referring to Lightwip's original assertion.

Neither was Flash.
Except he was. A terran who turtles with mech, has superior food count at any point of the game and thousands of minerals in the bank is, unless something exceptional happens, winning.

Uhh, if you didnt notice JD had the same food count for quite some time.
