Zerg[kal] totally has potential. If he had defended the first drop better, he'd probably win. Not all, just the first drop. Then he'd probably have the momentum on himself for good and wouldn't lose anything to drops at all.

Thanks to Kiante and nanashin for streaming.

Flash was a bit sloppy but it was not that bad. His plan was to be very aggressive and to make the rookie crumble under pressure. He looked silly when the pressure failed, but zerg has no right to mistake, so against an inferior opponent it was a very good plan.
His control could have been better though.

Zergs have become quite good at defending Flash's pushes to deny the third.

I wouldn't go quite that far, this is flash we're talking about. I mean, if flash had 1 base, 1 rax and 6 scvs at that point I'd agree that Zerg might have actually won.

Flash was so aggressive that it almost seemed a little reckless, but the zerg was actually keeping up with him all the way until the first dropship.

Perhaps Flash was just playing half-heartedly to not allow Hydra to analyze anything.(if he can)

I wouldn't be suprised.

I don't think Flash played half-heartedly, but I do think he just improvised during the entire game.

Imagine what Zerg[Kal] saw. It must've seemed like Flash was everywhere.

I think this is a very good summary of what Flash was going for. Flash was just trying to rattle the kid by applying non-stop pressure. He picked some pretty shaky places to engage and zerg didn't really cave until the dropships started coming in.

How long does Flash have before his semi with Hydra?
