Added a section to the top of the OP to attract attention to the MSL team's official write-up.
Not that anyone here is likely to have not seen it.

Also made changes to the main banner, map stats, and fan interview graphics
to better bring them in line with the thread's overall theme.

Coming soon to an OP near you:

dont know if anyone has pointed this out yet, but i think the map stats should read tvz rather than zvt, since the stats for terran come first and the stats for zerg are 2nd. just makes it a bit confusing when reading them because the zerg wins 40% of the games on la mancha/dante's and 72% on monte cristo, rather than 60/28

Maybe on monte cristo, but apart from there, especially on dante's peak, it would be difficult to pull off. Of course, this might turn out like the famous game on katrina.

Enormous mass of turrets battle Round #2.

Flash is going to exceed the number of turrets built in a game record that he set last time against Zero in this match and cause the same ensuing rage at "HOW CAN YOU BEAT THAT?" I can feel it!

at this time ZerO wasn't aware of the effectiveness of Queens... -___-

many things would become easier if he was. And actually, there were battles in which Queens would be useful - not everywhere there were turrets...

but again... queens what. These games are unlikely to see Queens or even mech builds imo. Flash will just go bio.

it was after a huge early game advantage. Well if Flash gets it - the game is already 98% lost for ZerO. We're talking about the situation where this isn't the case. Everyone hopes that ZerO won't insta-lose, we want real battle.

I think the only chance for Zero is to pull off something ridiculous in 1st or 2nd set. If Flash gets to the 3rd game without any major damage like 0-2 result or total and utter loss in one of two initial games, then I can't see him losing. After loss to Effort, he learned his lesson and most probably won't allow any Zerg to come back from early defeats. Of course at this moment Zero is first non-Jaedong Zerg to give Flash run for his money, but to be honest, the way Flash stomped Hydra does not encourage me to bet for any Zerg against him.

Amazing OP, a great read.

But shouldn't the map stats be TvZ not ZvT?

Flash's loss to Reality shows how much time he has been practicing TvZ. I must say he must have played a thousand TvZ by now. *shudders*

Me, I thought his loss to Reality just showed he got cheesed, but maybe you're right too.

The OP is ridiculously long, it's fantastic.

A mistake done in haste as I suffered from sleep deprivation I'm afraid. Thanks for pointing that out. It will be changed asap.

Edit: Fixed.

Amazing read at the OP, this is going to be so epic.

Also, the opinions of Teamliquid are fairly well divided 50/50, amazing.
