Its not a cheese by definition. It is a timing attack, where you need to do some damage in order to not be behind, but you can also kill someone as you could witness just minutes ago.


No, it's a cheese. Hydras are atrocious vs bio, so if you don't kill them immediately, you die.


They are not in small numbers as you could see. Yes it is a BO which depends on dealing damage, but it is not a do or die. Even if FlaSh hold that, he lost many SCVs and he cannot move out directly, because that many Hydras deal quite well against a small number of Marines.

No better way to watch the final game then on the best stream: http://afreeca.tv/ASL2ENG2


I can't connect for some reason, do I have to have afreeca installed?

I can't watch it from work then.

No matter who wins next, I can't believe Jaedong has taken 2 games. I haven't been this giddy watching Starcraft for eons!
MMOs kill APM. However Proleague plus BW Proscene music increase APM -> 100. 이제동 Fighting! Highest ranked Jaedong owner in FPL10 = clearly #1 Jaedong fan~! <- Keeping my sig from 2010

in zvt, fucking unheard of. in zvp, hydra busts incredibly common

its not unheard of, it just very difficult to do against a terran, especially like Flash.
JD used to practice hydra rushes in ZvT quite a few times in official matches.

I think Flash elegantly threw this one. There's no way on earth you go 3 barracks academy before ebay and lose vs hydra bust. His first decision to fight Jaedong's hydras at the natural by lifting the barracks was detrimental, he just should have stayed in and built 1 bunker more.


Thinking about this, it really was weird to lift the baracks. Especially if Flash expected Lurkers. Maybe he wanted to find the lurker eggs?


This is the explanation. Also, against a lurker push you want to start as far away from your nat CC as possible, that way the lurkers have to burrow/unburrow more times and you can get free hits on them.

Threw it? He was a hair away from holding and winning it. You can't throw a game by such a slight margin


Flash had everything lined up to pretty much kill it, yet he screwed up all the possible ways he could I think. Yet he scouted the upgraded with movement hydras and perhaps already watched jaedong's stream to know he does it from time to time.
Enjoy the game

Jaedong needs to get a lair+lurker upgrade, doesn't have even close to +1 carapace, is still on 2 gas with a limited amount of drones.

He is dead if he doesn't kill him.

edit: I think he was on 1 gas actualy

I think Flash timing was off because the Hydra Den was a bit earlier than usual, but I could be wrong.
