well he did say it starts to hurt after 3-4 games. hence I believe he rushed to finish the series so he can hold the trophy without any major problems

Silly Flash, always in such a hurry these days. I miss the olden times when he would turtle and make games exciting.

That was a little short, but refreshingly free of commercials and junk in between the games. I for one am pretty happy with the games. Of course I would have liked to see more of them, but the games on offer were great enjoyment. The valkyries caught me completely off guard.

Now, I'd just like to chirp in a little about the way a vocal part(minority?) seems to be upset that Flash now has tied Nada's starleague record. It's fine and dandy to be nostalgic, but it's not a very constructive attitude. As starcraft fans we shouldn't feel sad about lost glory, but rejoice about the fact that records still can be (and are) broken so many years down the line. This isn't in any way taking away from Nada's achievement. Rather, it's indicative of the vitality of the game.

It's not the day that Flash claims a seventh title we should fear. We should fear the day no one is stepping up to challenge of meeting the old heroes anymore. That's the day Brood War will die.

It looks from the interview that Flash won mainly due to ribs

SAD

Flash didnt even try in game 2 and 3. He wanted to make the game longer and give Zero a chance, but Zero just refused to crawl out of his shell and do some damage to Flash's economy. Flash didnt even make any science vessels.

The problem is that Zero gave up hope once all his willpower and effort was broken so easily in game 1. His superb micro and well laid out plans were just so effortlessly shoveled aside.

Flash swatted Zero aside like a mere fly. It was painful to watch Zero's sadness and hopelessness on his face.

I give game 1 a 9/10, and cannot recommend the total domination of games 2 and 3.

Zero just froze up.



yeah, u can tell in game 2 Flash let Zero off for a bit. He knew mentally Zero has already lost.

As soon as I saw that Zero went for a 12 hatch in the first game I instantly knew he was gonna lose 0-3 and I closed the stream.

I think the definition of infinity is:

The amount of titles Flash has to win until zergs learn to 9 pool.

9 pool doesn't really help either, Flash scouts a lot better these days and seems to use 14CC as a response rather than a blind gamble. If you 9 pool and Flash blocks it, you're going to hand yourself a economic deficit which isn't exactly the best thing to have against Flash.

For instance, in game 1 if you noticed how they started off he saw Zero attempting a gamble and immediately knew he couldn't be going 9 pool. So he responding with a CC before barracks because he knew he would be safe.

The one thing I love most about SC (love is a word I use very sparingly) is the minimap. You could see the pure domination in all the games, especially game 3. Red (color of Flash) was pretty much everywhere with Zero barely holding on a narrow strip of territory on the left side of the map. Even if you put a regular player in the position of Flash near the end, he could not lose due to utter and brutal map domination. Flash's economy near the end was enough to erase the US deficit.

One of the commentators said that Zero was not making any attacks against Flash's non defended expansions. The thing is, once you have total map control like Flash did in game 3, you see everything that is going on and can quickly respond to any intrusion. The only thing that could have saved zero was the use of Power Overwhelming.
