And Effort won that series using early aggression, but since then Flash got way better dealing with such plays. Zero and Hydra were promising Zerg players towards the end of BW; I wonder what happened to them. Sorry, are you referring to the OSL finals with the crazy comeback? You seem like you're talking about something that happened a long time ago. But I was actually talking about a set they had on stream just a couple of days ago. If you're interested, you can catch it here. | ||

The first post was referring to the KeSPA period and when I saw you mention 3:2 I automatically assumed that you mean OSL back then. Also because there was a period just before that OSL were Effort was playing like a beast, but already by the time of the final he seemed below his peak. I will check the link you provided. Thanks! | ||

EffOrt winning a single set from Flash doesn't mean anything, especially when he has a losing record against Flash afaik and he also can't play as well on stage either. Thanks for the link, will watch regardless. | ||

Strange that they changed it again. Maybe they thought no one would think it's an actual spoiler because it's divinely predestined. | ||

I'm sorry to be negative but no...Zero would be absolutely destroyed. I say this because at no point in brood war could Zero have hoped to beat flash in a best of five. | ||

Instead this is still the time of cold hard reality. And that's what Flash is. Please change your race icon  (it's terran right now) | ||

Flash smashing drop ships down Shines throat to defuse the lurker fire and Shines innovative tactics. It’s incredible we can be seeing new strategies and new styles of playing in 2017. Broodwar has an infinite capacity to surprise. | ||

But Shines showing there are more options and making Zerg less predictable has to be a good thing.I hope JD Effort Soulkey and the top Zergs see this as a blueprint playing Zerg. Only they have higher level mechanics to do transitions better than Shine has I can see Flashs smashing through the front with drops becoming more common too. That bodes badly for Z. | ||

In terms of gameplay quality and competitiveness between both players? (And while you're at it, you could list the Top 3 worst too!) | ||
