Watch how flash positions his army, he has lines of siege tanks and he scans before fights, "just storm his army" isn't so simple, he WILL snipe your templar with his tanks and vultures, he'll emp them, he'll continue to spread his tanks as he does, it's hard enough for bisu to even get a flying unit that moves faster in to stasis let alone slow ass templars.

'wild' theory: bisu has mostly been practicing PvZ, seeing that as the easier chance to get the moniez (at blizzcon in 1 bo5 in his best matchup)

I didn't watch his stream, or am not aware if he has streamed lately?

Bisu's play was so disappointing today actually. Flash would have been the favorite under all circumstances, but *notlikethis*


Honestly it just looked like a typical PvT ladder session to me, this is how most PvT games turn out.. even at pro levels. Bisu's only win was because he went for an unconventional build which FlaSh tried to punish with a timing attack that he probably never practiced before.


well, there were some sloppy plays and some unforced errors. Bisu's overaggressive play shows he wasn't comfortable playing the long game too. We saw why on FS.


Playing vs Terran just forces other races to make mistakes because you're the one that has to do something. T can just macro up their army and move across the map (with an army worth 2x your maxed out army) without needing to worry about miss-microing or anything, there's nothing to miss micro because they have the ultimate maxed out army..


Well bisu had the perfect set up for the game; he did not get harrassed he had a perfect economy and was maxed.

Now one can say "terran is just op" *cry*cry*


different approach:

1) How good was bisus unit composition (no hts with storm; zealot/goon ratio; enough arbiters or not; shuttles ect..)?
2) How good was his decision making when to pull back and when to keep attacking?

Not nearly good enough in these games imo.. He didnt flank in the game on FS; he didnt pull back early enough; then he didnt defend his two nexuses but let them die and funnily attacked a few seconds after they were dead when nothing really changed..

that can happen to an average player but should not to a pro on bisus level


Dont make it sound like tvp is imba; bisu didnt play as well a he could have when it mattered. THere is PLENTY of evidence that a toss can beat a terran in late game;

it is about unit composition, how good the toss engages the fight; when he pulls back and how well he can macro;

I wish flash would play protoss to show them how it's done. I'm pretty sure he would USE high templars instead of morphing them into archons (wtf?)

4 games, not a single high templar (for storm). What was worse was that Bisu's game 2 on FS was extremely solid, close to perfect as he grabbed a 6th. He was maxed when Flash was close to 140 supply yet he waited till Flash almost maxed, suicided his army and lost to Flash's push. Like, imagine 3-4 hts in there or several recalls on top of the army. Why doesn't Bisu do any of this stuff???


I was wondering the exact same thing, why doesnt he just keep terran's supply down... doesnt even matter if he doesnt trade super evenly as he has way more bases and flash wouldn't be able to expand easily.. yet he waits until flash is close to max and then makes some bad attack where he puts stasis on all the front units...


look at that vod and tell me where you're pushing in before T moves out? he had a wall at his third, wall at natural, turrets and mines everywhere as anti recall def. You have to pick that first fight better, more in the open, with storms and better stasis i agree. But i felt there was no way to trade armies in an acceptable way before that.

You could recall to trade portions of the army earlier, but Bisu was scared since the goliaths of flash damaged his arbiter pretty hard and so any recall bisu felt would not work since he would immediately recall behind turrets and he probably expected flash to have mines directly behind. if he couldve gotten an arbiter at full health to the center of flash's main to recall, perhaps he would have been more confident to pull the trigger and recall. I agree he cant push into flash until flash tried to move across the bridge into a choke.

Idk Bisu decision making was really confusing, when he reached 5 base i thought he will make 30 gates and will just keep flash at bay by trading units when he tries to push out, solidifying his map control and expo advantage. He couldve just sandwitched terran from both sides as he goes out of the natural and continue attack from 2 sides with his 2 main base gates reinforcements. I was confused to see bisu just throwing his army leting flash roll over him and no units come out of the 11 oclock main, it was a standart play he could not handle properly, it just doesnt make sense.
And im not positive about protoss need to be agressive at all costs, 6 vs 3 bases do you really need to throw your advantage away rather than supporting it?
Luv ya BroodWar!

Man the finals are going to be one-sided I think. Hero is like 4-6th place in Zergs who can potentially beat Flash.

honestly, it's a good possibility lol. 25k at blizzcon in one series over having to beat the GOAT and a weaker ZvP specialist. 25k sounds easier to win

you use shuttles to bring templars in to avoid them getting empd and to allow them to move around faster. most late game PvT maxed situations will have templars in the shuttles.

Tesagi deniers will never understand this or choose not to.

This is hilariously hard to do, Flash just makes it look easy. I can 200/200 in <13 min vs the computer like Flash, yet I cannot beat average protoss players.


We're not talking about you or me tho, we're talking about high end progamer T's.


Lol you are just being sour, this is Flash you are talking about he makes it look so easy. Have you watched Best Rain Stork etc. roll Terrans before?

I promise you that you'll never find more games where P wins in a macro game with a maxed out ground army (zeal goon ht) + arbs vs a maxed out Terran army.

Just think about Terran as a race rationally, they're the ultimate defensive race and they have the strongest maxed out army (by maxed out army i mean the most accessible army comp, not talking about 200/200 pure carriers, i'm taking about same tier army comps), there's no debating that. The only way to weaken Terran is by making anti Terran maps, like ASL has this season (current map pool is great for ZvT).

Which still have the exact same problem, if you're shuttling them in you have to drop them, press storm and target the area/unit you want to storm, meanwhile all flash has to do to counter it is target the shuttle with a goliath or two, have mines up, or tanks in the backline that haven't fired yet that autotarget the templar, or target the templar with vultures as they drop, and there's a small window before the shuttle dies to goliaths.

It's really not as simple as you guys are making it out to be, impossible? no of course not but the way flash is playing don't be surprised if he deletes the templar before you can get meaningful storms off.

you're also assuming this is the worst case scenario for protoss while the best case scenario for terran. they wont auto target the templar beacuse they'll be auto targetting the goons and zealots. you dont unload templar before your units, you wait until the armies have clashed to do it.

is it more micro? yes. but im willing to put in the extra micro to make sure i have an army that can actually stand up to 200/200 which protosses like jangbi and stork in his prime have shown he can do. this is not something that is impossible nor even overly difficult as you make it out to be. once again, there's a reason protoss is favored against terran. this is flash we're talking about, not the average terran. people just want to bitch at terran when in reality they should only be bitching about flash.

or you move in with two shuttles and drop zealots first so the tanks auto-target them. Honestly, it may not be simple but it's worked plenty of times in the past. Bisu just doesn't like to storm for whatever reason and as letmelose mentioned earlier, his army control late game is pretty bad. Result isn't the most surprising tbh, was personally just hoping that Bisu ends Flash's final appearance because people will use anything to balance whining.

But only Flash wins, all other terrans are pretty bad tbh. Even Last got dismantled by a freaking out of form Stork last season. I think people just fail to realize how above everyone else Flash is.

yes bisu's army control has always been shakey. his zealot attacks are still pretty bad when they stuck on his goons and hes not moving them in separated.

well, there were some sloppy plays and some unforced errors. Bisu's overaggressive play shows he wasn't comfortable playing the long game too. We saw why on FS.


Playing vs Terran just forces other races to make mistakes because you're the one has to do something. T can just macro up their army and move across the map without needing to worry about miss-microing or anything, there's nothing to miss micro because they have the ultimate maxed out army..


Tesagi deniers will never understand this or choose not to.

This is hilariously hard to do, Flash just makes it look easy. I can 200/200 in <13 min vs the computer like Flash, yet I cannot beat average protoss players.


We're not talking about you or me tho, we're talking about high end progamer T's.


But only Flash wins, all other terrans are pretty bad tbh. Even Last got dismantled by a freaking out of form Stork last season. I think people just fail to realize how above everyone else Flash is.


Thank you for your 1 game sample size. Last and Stork also lost to sSak in the same group, is sSak a better Terran than Last?

Of course protoss has the tools to kill a 200/200 mech army, we've all seen it hundreds of times. It's just the amount of effort and almost PERFECT play required to do this is an absurd requirement compared to what Terran needs to do to get that mech army.

I don't doubt Flash's skill, I don't think a Terran nerf would all of sudden make Flash a scrub.

But there is no doubt in my mind, tank upgrades scale way too well and vultures cost way too little and fixing this would improve the game.

pretty much. Last who was considered to be the second top tier terran got eliminated by Stork of all people. Stork barely even practices yet he beat a player that's known as Alphago and has top tier macro etc... It has nothing to do with the race, they all have their inherent advantages and weaknesses. It's all to do with Flash being above everyone else by a long shot. It's like he said in the interview, he just keeps practicing and it's true.
