Total BW noob question: was that a scan by Flash? How did he know the units were there? What tipped his hand?


There was no reason.


Pros rarely do something for nothing. Only Flash knows, but I suspect he asked himself, "Why does Shine want to fight here so badly?"

Exactly, bw has little to do with luck


I actually think it's because he JUST MISSED the mutas (they were flying below his bio on the cliff) as he moved out so he suspected lurkers

In this case I think Shine just did not micro his muta properly given the situation...

Lol nice try. It didn't work when it was done by Jaedong. It's not like you don't expect something cheesy when you play vs Shine...

Well the reason why it did not work when Jaedong tried it was completely different though


I just meant that you're supposed to be extra cautious when playing against Shine.
Even if there was 1% chances that zerglings were burrowed here, Flash had to scan, because he can afford it. Against someone like Jaedong, he can't afford to waste a scan like this.

Just like keeping an scv or building something at his third backdoor in game 3 would have been wise against Shine


every cheesy loss only makes him stronger though. he learns and adapts. like a living supercomputer

Interview, translated by OpShot <3

[06:38] <+OpShot> thoughts?
[06:38] <+OpShot> - im happy, was slightly mentally shaken after game 3 but it's okay
[06:39] <+OpShot> "you defended well throughout, but then what did u feel right after the strategy in game 3"
[06:39] <+OpShot> - i actually applauded him inside. it was a fantastic strategy. i accepted my loss, and calmly prepared myself for next game
[06:39] <+OpShot> "how about the scan in game 4? did you feel it?"
[06:39] <+OpShot> - i don't know, it wasn't even that one bait ling, i just kind of felt fishy and scanned
[06:40] <+OpShot> - relaly, that last game, i felt something tingling so i scanned and there it was, woah!
[06:40] <+OpShot> "so flash, now you're off to semis. soo or fantasy, who do you want?
[06:40] <+OpShot> - i want fantasy. last OSL, therefore i want to face the best of the best
[06:40] <+OpShot> "but TvZ is so much easier than TvT, statistically. why do you choose the hardest path?"
[06:41] <+OpShot> - i would have preferred the easier path, but this is the last OSL, and the last chance to prove myself as the best
[06:41] <+OpShot> "any last words"
[06:41] <+OpShot> - that mental breakdown after game 3 was one of a kind, a memorable one now. a rare one in my long career. i then heard the thunderous cheer from the fans so i recovered, thanks to the fans for the support
[06:42] <+OpShot> "again flash, grats on advancing to the semis!"

He didn't suspect lurkers at all because at that point hold pos lurker would have slaughtered everything, I think he scanned to gain vision of the mutas.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

Thanks to both of you, great interview. Apparently it was not only to scan the mutas ?

I think soO will die before late game anyway. Actually I expect soO vs Fantasy to be very close to Hydra vs Fantasy last OSL.

guy in nanashin chat added that flash talked about how he knew a bunch of lings were out but didn't see them, adding to the strange feeling.
