While it's true that Flash lost the game because of bad decisions, I don't think Flash would have made desperation moves like pushing out prematurely or with biomech if it was on a map with an easier to take third base. Even given the early game cheese, he could have just camped at home on 3 bases until he had a large enough army. But on this map, the onus was on Flash to do damage to Bisu or just get rolled eventually. | ||

Not saying he would have won, but he would've held off the zeal counter easily. He was a few seconds late on walling off his nat and it cost him. That's BW. | ||

He took his shot and it almost worked; but chances are, he didn't need as much reinforcements at that position. He brought too much on the second wave and let his base be defenseless, when the only real option left for bisu was to counter. ...I don't think map imbalance had anything to do with this game. It didn't really last long enough. Maybe taking a fast 3rd / catching up instead of that push would be a better option on another map, but he was behind at that point anyway. Bisu often got lucky with zealots popping out of that gate at best possible time, though. | ||

In the early game he had numerous chances to take a significant advantage, then just throws it by letting himself get flanked by Zealots. He might have been able to accumulate a large enough advantage at that point that he could just win with a timing push. Afterwards he makes only tanks and no vultures. I was thinking he would lose it the moment he overcommitted to the place behind bisus base, but Bisu tried to break it instead of counterattacking. However, flash kept doing that, with NO vultures and NO proper defenses at home, and so Bisu was going to win the second he decided to counterattack. Flash couldn't even go for a base race himself after seeing Bisu countering him because he was at a terrible position behind Bisu's base where he couldn't access the actually important parts of Bisus base fast enough to deal any kind of significant damage. Especially the part where he snipes core and then makes a total of 0 vultures against the only unit Bisu could possibly make was just unbelievable. Flash definitely wasn't in form again. I believe that sending out Hoejja would have given KT better chances of victory. Yeah, like let's be honest here, it didn't look like him. I was sitting in my room WIGGIN out when he kills the core, and they show his nat, and he keeps making tanks. And he keeps making tanks. I'm going "ok he's going to pop a bunch of vults any time soon..... .why is he not making vults. what the fck how does he have no vults yet" Even so, this was the sickest finals I think I've ever seen. That's for sure. | ||

He didn't take that large of an advantage in the early game. Flash should have been able to seal the game after the first few micro battles in his main. Every time Flash made great progress against the zealot rush he pushed out into the open and lost far too many marines. I'm not such a fan of Flash's push location either, that spot behind the base let him siege down 2 tech buildings and that's it. It was a nice defensible position, sure, but he couldn't push anywhere from there. Let alone the fact that you can't reinforce that location, the supply lines are just too long! | ||
