Improbable but not impossible. Improbable to the point that it's essentially impossible. Come on, guys. Flash is a playing unbelievable, but losses just happen in BW. Nobody can even sustain a 90% for an entire year, much less 100%.
You doubt because it never happened before. You're lucky you're alive to witness it happen for the first and the last time.

To save gas for tanks. Vessel cost too much gas + you need galioth to protect the vessel

He handicapped Himself because He wasn't impressed with his opponent's effort.

I see what you did there!
I believe he had enough scans though, he was expanding while containing effort. G-Class maphax.

you dont need vessels when you go mass tanks transition specially in that situation where flash had 5 comsats and there was only 1 spot where engagements happened. you really only need it when zerg goes queens.

flash had so many bases with comsats that he didnt need to waste gas on vessels

The new format means Flash will be playing around 25-30 proleague games for the entire year. He's held near 90% winrates in the teamleague format over that number of games before. From 10/10/2009 - 10/5/2010 Flash had a record of 53-7 in proleague (88%) and from 10/19/2010 - 2/15/2011 he went 35-3 (92%). With no individual leagues to split his preparation time, no ace matches to play against the other members of TBLS or vT snipers and no burden to carry KT all by himself, there's no reason why Flash wouldn't be able to hit 90% for the whole year. 100% is unlikely simply because somebody will eventually beat Flash with a cheese or all-in but I see no way Flash doesn't completely demolish the record for win% in proleague.

...It's already halfway through Round 2. With the less amount of games and stress on Flash with no OSL/MSL, he can put all his attention into Proleague. He could very well go through the first season without a single loss.

Honestly don't think anyone can beat Flash. + Show Spoiler +BELIEVE So overrated. Bring em in! Related: Stats slump? stats has been a player of ups and downs but I'm not worried. yeah stats is a bit streaky. he was like this last season. he did a great job supporting flash in WL.
Don't think it's a slump. Even in the loss against bogus he played pretty well. This loss to snow was a bit unfortunate. Was dominating until he lost the shuttle.
He's still playing at a high level.

I love Jangbi as much as you guys but he beat Flash before the surgery. Can't say he's the most-favored to defeat Flash. I'd put Fantasy or even Zero (minus the current slump he's in) as the more likely candidates.

I hate Flash as much as the next Anti-fan but I despise CJ more. So fuck yeah, KT.

I really dont get why Flash did not build 4-5 Science Vessel.
They would cost about 1200 gas, pretty cheap when you are at 5 base.
In terms of cost efficiency its really hard to beat.
Even if a science vessel only manage to irradiate a single defiler and get sniped by scourge, it already paid for itself. Anything more than that, and Flash being Flash, he'd get waaaaaaaay more, is a bonus.

no need for vessels if you are that far ahead.
