At least in terms of entertainment value of tonight's games, no one came out at a loss.  Except you didn't watch today's game so your post is non sense. Except I don't post assumptions that somebody didn't watch the game lol. Or maybe that person has hidden cameras installed at other people's houses now? O_o
So in the game, Stork vs Flash, Stork went 12 nexus?

If a cheese should be considered a BO that only hits one timing and is disadventegous in case of no doing a lot of damage then both Stork and Flash cheesed,
BUT, a standard responce can not be called cheese, and that is why many people say that flash did not cheese, because he responces with early pressure in every game where tosses dare to 12 nex or gate-nex.
If you watch all recent Flashed TvP where protosses did early nexus versus Flash you will see him always responding with early pressure. And do we always see Stork doing 4 gates in every PvT when terrans play early CC? Don't think so.
Also storks play in 4 gate game was prepared to do exactly 4 gate build after fast CC after stolen gas. And flash does his responce with early pressure even in games when he has fast expanded himself. Like a game versus Jangbi in previous khan vs kt. So how can it be cheese if the build is oriented on FE? it is just that flash uses his units in other way, but the build is not cheesy.

So when if Flash bunker rush Stork he must Certain that he will take the nexus or delay his Mining nat until Flash' CC at home finish
I don't know why people always have to put scenario to prove something.
It was 1 dragoon and 1 zealot + (#?)probes vs 5-6 scv and 4-5 marines. I'm not a good micro player so please teach me how to micro those protoss units to effective kill all the terran units. Don't forget that 2 vultures is coming soon and your second dragoon will be out when the vultures get to the natural.
Edit: Well unless you were giving the scenario to prove a point about bunkering vs 12 nexus then nevermind about my post.

Except that Flash put his barracks in a proxy position, preparing for a bunker rush.
I am of the opinion that both are cheese. Nothing is wrong with it as it is the proper response to an anticipated early expansion timing. And to quote a piece of godly wisdom.

I left my house when the thread was only at 23 pages and Flash was having a great early advantage over Stork, and when I came back and saw it had 32 pages I thought Stork had pulled off a comeback victory : o So happy that Flash and KT still won in the end. And Flash gets to pay Stork back too, awesome!
|
Lol I love the rage when Flash cheeses, and then the rage when Flash plays late management.
It really is a testament to Flash that no matter how he wins he gets raged at for it
Either way, it was an interesting game. I mean, I really didn't expect Stork to last as long as he did and that was some wicked shuttle micro
|
Was a pretty good game. IMO, only Stork and Jaedong have the potential to outplay Flash when they are all on top of their game. This game showed once again Stork's amazing Shuttle+Reaver control and Flash's decisiveness.
Like every other SPL game in the last 2 years, Khan shows that they need more quality players.
GGs

More recently Khan seems to be entirely dependent on a large crop of competent new players. There's no shame in dropping games to Stats when he plays as well as he did in those 3.
|
I dont watch live since I was in holiday and I assume that KT will win and its true :D
KT wins. Congrats KT and thank you Flash and Stats :D

After today I think Protosses fighting Flash should scout before 12/14nexing to see if he goes rax first
|
He has built rax after depo today as he does always in TvP, so early scout won't help.

I was making a joke

Meh, I'm not too upset about this. At least Stork saved Khan from the embarrassment of an AK by Stats. Also, holy shit, Bisu and Stork almost have the same PvT ELO.

It's about to get even closer. Last night's games have not been factored into TLPD yet.
Regarding the last game, Flash's strategy is cheesy, but I'd hesitate to call it a cheese outright. It has to really, really fail badly before he's completely screwed over and if we define cheese in such a manner then basically any strategy would be considered cheesy. What makes a cheese a cheese is that a.) you are dependent on your opponent not being able to react in time (usually this boils down to if they scout it you are screwed, if they don't scout it you win) and b.) you are locked into your strategy. Hence if your cheese fails you are screwed. These days it's getting harder to call anything cheese because scouting techniques and understanding of timing are much better and players always want a contingency plan. At least, that's my take on cheese these days.
Why Flash was able to roll Stork like that in large part has to do with Stork failing a little bit. He was confident enough that he kept his zealot in Flash's base and it did help a little by allowing him to stack his probes to defend, but his zealot and goon at home didn't do enough in defense. He had enough stuff that I thought he should be able to defend that (obviously with some loss of probes) but he failed, really.
