so whenever flash loses, he played weak rather than the opponent played just too good? wow
Did you actually watch the game? Have you seen the fail blob of marines and tanks clumped up like that just waiting to be gibbed by lurkers? JD played well, but to say Flash played a good game is just absurd.
normally when Zerg tries that kind of attack the Zerg fails. Horribly. It only worked because Jaedong was able to take out so many marines in the beginning, and how delayed Flash's tech was due to 4rax
Normally when zerg tries that the terran doesn't clump his units into a blob and doesn't react after 3 seconds of zerg engagement. If they show the replay it's clear as light day.
Whew I'm a bit better now that Flash was dominated in such an awesome way.. Jaedong's play was sooo good today... Now please what would make my day like perfect is Bisu winning his next two games~

it's the same thing you would do if Bisu had won in the same fashion against Flash. hahahahah

jd played really good. but flash scouted all the lurkers and still moved out to get surrounded :/
This game started off similar to previous JvF games; Flash patrolling outside with a small group of mnm, JD killing it, then not-killing the second group. Then Flash 'd run into JD's 3rd and seal the game with that. This time, JD flanked the second group with muta/lurker/ling instead of muta/ling, and although the mnm group was bigger, the result was better. He also didn't waste energy on attacking Flash's turret defences, making him waste money in that department. Next time they meet, either or both of them will have a new or tweaked strat.
Still, it's good to know JD is not that far behind Flash, perhaps he'll get his 6th title after all
to be honest that battle was sorta fight-able for Flash in terms of army composition, it's just that he had really inferior position.

Flash's measurement's were a few millimeters off today.

Not how it was. Jaedong faked with his mutas three times and prompted three stims from Flash before moving in for the kill. It was the wasted stims that made Flash lose his army (his reaction wasn't late--he just couldn't afford more stimming) and most of the credit for that goes to Jaedong's amazing mutalisk micro. Flash does NOT make unforced errors.
edit: unless you meant the second time Flash lost his army, but JD was already way ahead by that time.

EXACTLY! The medics were out of energy and the surround was perfect.
