It was an 8rax. Luckily Barracks went CC before gas to capitalize on the fact that he wouldn't be aggressed after the rax cancel, so they're pretty even.

Barracks should be well ahead in econ if it was 8 Rax. The slightly faster CC for Ruby doesn't make up for the early SCV cutting involved when proxy 8 raxing, does it?

SCVs in TvT aren't like drones in ZvZ. It's not a big deal either way; it's basically even.

it doesn't, and there's also the money lost because the barrack was canceled.
edit : doesnt really matter as long as KT keeps sending appetizers.
I guess the coach made a side bet on how many wins/ all-kills Flash can perform this round but he doesn't wanna send Flash first everygame, so he sends a scrubs then Flash all-kills.

In the end, ruby got his expo earlier and his rax later, which helped him out.

He was damn lucky it was cross position. I believe if it was not, Barracks' marine could've gotten there in time to screw up the double CC.

If proxy 8 rax --> fast CC (if scouted) doesn't get behind standard play economically people would do it all the time.

I don't usually judge by the result, but he won the game, after all. Even if he didn't, did he look behind? He went vult/tank when Barracks went tank/gol. He got map control and an earlier third. He kept map control and killed his opponent.
Barracks didn't do a standard build like vult expo, as far as I can tell he adapted and realized he could do a gasless CC.
Honestly. TvTs can easily last an hour. Try to think outside of the first two minutes. Things like this don't snowball like you want. They fizzle out.
not very good play from ruby. his units were really running into each other up the narrow ramps, and keeping those sieged tanks in the way didn't help at all.

it's only 2-1, why not?
Because KT won't bring out its heavy gun when it has a chance to give the others some screentime. On the bright side, Stats will AK, and if not we might get to see Reach or Yellow.
After Khan winning without Stork, KT winning without Flash Stats let Flash get some wins ! He said he wanted to get over 45 wins at the end of the winners league....

FPL = the unexpected happens. EDIT: It is so funny right now that it is not funny anymore. I miss Flash 4-0s, better than 4-3s

The only thing you can expect is that Roro is gonna destroy your anti-team even if he's always struggling to maintain a 50% win rate.

I had him last Winners League on my anti and even though he was worth 6 points, he only scored 4.18. So no, he definitely did not destroy my anti-team.
fbh has the worst micro vs carriers i've seen in a while dozen goliath moving while not firing a single shot !! stop trying to take the carriers and shoot at the interceptors since he has no monning bases u'll make him waste his money
Up to the point where the goliath vs carrier micro started that was some of the most solid TvP games I've seen in a really long time that didn't include Flash. Too bad.
Good job Stats, first AK of the season! Stats+Flash makes KT a deadly team again! :D

Ohh and got damit Stats! why all kill? Now Flash could not get any points for my Fantasy team :-(

Thats what its all about though. If KT steps up (and I don't mean only Stats) such that Flash doesn't have to carry them thats more meaningful I really hope it happens too, after the first 2 rounds.

Stats was always the 2nd best and most consistent player on KT now if we saw Action or Violet get a AK.... (or KONG)
