Yeah, it was awhile ago and I'd forgotten, fair enough. No need to be so aggressive though, mate. Still, by far the best record in "ace" matches of any player. Like a 98% record lol. | ||

Stork's zealot saw the rush coming, but he mismicroed his first goon and lost it, while getting no kills with his zealot that was in Flash's main instead of pulling it back to chase marines, thus costing him his nat. yeah no... it was response to blind rax cc.... and has been used on jeadong when he goes similiar 12 hatch... it good you know that cheese is preplanned though.. | ||

Seriously, that game was over for a while. Stork might as well have gotten scouts. Just because he can do some damage against a non-air-attacking army doesn't mean he ever had a real chance. | ||

It doesn't make sense to go wraith and gol to counter. | ||

It was not a response to blind rax CC. The gas steal always comes before the rax finishes and there's literally no way to say flash was going to blind rax cc in that game. He literally cannot get enough gas and the only thing he can do with his minerals is either build more barracks (In a tvp, lol), a bunker, and a CC. Guess what that means? He builds a bunker and a cc and that's rax cc. | ||

From early game aggression...to late game management, he doesn't really seem to have a weakness. He is just playing better than everyone else right now, not much you can do. | ||

Usually, ace player does not gg until very end, just to show their "fighting" mindset. Did flash scout the top left? Or is it a 2 players map? | ||

Good games though. At least in terms of entertainment value of tonight's games, no one came out at a loss.  | ||

Let me spell this out cleanly to you. The gas steal comes before Flash can do ANY build. His barracks isn't even finished when it happens. For all we know, Flash could've been going 1 factory expand, 2 factory, fast dropship, ANYTHING, but because he got his gas stolen, the only thing he could make was bunkers and CCs. Stork's 4 gate came because there is LITERALLY nothing flash can do but rax cc -- stork forced him to. This wasn't a blind choice by Flash, Stork's gas steal forces Flash to play this way. It's not blind, it's not something that Stork scouted and responded to (like he did against Flash, and like Flash did against him in this game). The only way for Terran to defend that is to build 2 extra bunkers, make extra marines, and preferably research marine range before getting his tank out, and this can only happen if he scouts the gates otherwise he's crippling himself. | ||
