bisu should have won the fighting spirit game but he made really bad choices and engagements after he got to limit vs 150 supply. Then it would have been 2-2 and maybe bisu would win the final game.

What I see is players consistently losing because they fail to abuse the one weakness terran has - immobility. Bisu had limit, didn't have to engage flash's army, could keep flash on 3 bases, could have taken top right and built lots of gates there, instead sacrifices his army in a horrible engagement after stasising the front 10 tanks while allowing the back 15 to pummel him down. At that point, Flash could put on pressure towards bisu's main gateway concentration, and it was basically over.

Yes, protoss cannot cost-efficiently engage a full terran army. But they can get such an advantage before terran gets to that point that they end up having three different points for terran to attack, and then terran either needs to choose one of them (then toss can backstab with full army) or spread out to multiple points (at which point it's possible to engage again). I saw Flash winning today because he didn't make mistakes of significance and because Bisu made several crucial ones. It wasn't balance related.


thank you

and now the balance discussion really should stop at this point


1) Bisu did not lose this series because T>P or 200/200 mech is unbeatable; he lost it because he made sever mistakes
2) Racial imbalance alone does not exist; it depends on the maps; so saying T>P or Z>P is just stupid and obviously wrong


that is it for me...I m out now

I feel like some people just cant accept certain things (hi there TT1..)


I don't get what you think it is that i can't accept, i'm just stating my opinion and so is everyone else (on the general state of the game). If you don't believe me that's fine, i'm not force feeding people into believing me.

People are giving their opinions on why they think Terran isn't broken and i'm giving mine on why i think it is. I always call it like i see it and i honestly don't think im a biased person, i'm never afraid to admit being wrong whenever i am.

If people around here are overly sensitive and can't accept my statements and decide to hold a grudge against me then so be it. I can't do anything about that but i still won't hold back tho. I'm not asking you to believe what i'm saying, i believe what i'm saying, whether or not others want to believe me is entirely up to them. The problem is if you're trying to convince me otherwise then i expect to see valid arguments being made. I provided you with enough data on the current state of the game via the ladder rankings and touched on the strengths of Terran as a race in previous posts already.

Anyways i don't wanna derail this thread further more, at the end of the day 2 great players just played a huge match so i'll let you guys talk about the games.


Protoss is broken at our level and terran becomes broken when it reaches flash level. Go see top 10 sponsored players and see only three players in that list.

Your vote: Which ASL moment did you profit the most from harvesting tears?

(Vote): Sea destroying Bisu (3-0) in ASL2.
(Vote): Shine destroying Bisu (3-1) in ASL3.
(Vote): God smiting Bisu in ASL4.


This one definitely hurt the most. Shine's win was awesome to watch. His strategies were really cool. Sea's win I can't even remember. It was no big deal though. But this being potentially Bisu's last series for a while and he played quite frankly terrible, it was really hard to watch. Flash has an impeccable way of making great players look mediocre. Big congrats to him and I hope that his continued dominance inspires players to work even harder.

Tesagi is real.
1. 8 Dragoons cant even kill an scv
2. While 3 vultures erase a probe with 1 shot
3. Scarab is hit or miss
4. But vulture mine sits there and 1 shots 100 probes
5. Protoss spend 1 million minerals and gas on carriers, and terran counter with 50 mineral marines
6. Scan stargate fleet build, and scan carrier push timing

Nah, just flash playing a great game.

Flash is just on another level. Didn't really seem to be behind or worried about Bisu at any point. Main reason he lost game 3 was because he tried to deep 6(8 technically) and Bisu scouted and hard countered. Probably would have won if he went regular old mech.

no, he went deep 6 or 8 or w/e precisely because by the time he scouted the carriers, he wouldn't have had time to get enough goliath up. Bisu also barely hung out at one point. His zealots were evaporating and he had to pull his carriers back. He managed to get the reaver just in time.

Bisu game 1 was unlucky imo, he opened 10/15 and got scouted immediately and countered, also there were two reaver shots missed during the push (1 mismicro 2 AI) but it was hard for Bisu to hold anyway (6 goons+ reaver vs 8 tanks, so he couldn't even delay).
Game 2 he was ahead after opening and then wasted two stasis fields on that bridge, after that Flash was able to march straight to his nat and get control the most important position on the map ez.
Games 3 and 4, well i guess aggressive/cheesy play, Flash usually defends the second time though

Overall, the series reminded me of Flash vs Guemchi, Bisu showed lack of confidence in the interview after winning Killer and it showed overall in his play/ build choices.

Tune in to Flash's stream, he is showing the re-run, maybe if you know Korean, you'll hear something useful.

I find it very odd how quick you guys are to dismiss flash's decision to go mass barracks as 'his best option' or 'a calculated and well executed decision' and yet any choices bisu made similarly are him 'demonstrating awful play' etc.

If we're going to go back and say Bisu could've won game 2 if he did _____ better then we can also say flash could've won game 3 had he proceeded to go mech.

He didn't have the barracks when he scanned the fleet beacon, he added 7 barracks (possibly 8) that's over 1000 minerals he threw into barracks and after that marine production, he also probably got stim and range, had he added 4 factories and another armoury with a few more turrets it's entirely possible he could've held. 2 carriers are not a threat, even 4 carriers can easily be thwarted by 6-8 goliaths and turrets.

I could be wrong, but to me I almost got the sense FlaSh just did that for the flair of doing it. Making something like that work as part of a 3-0 would have been entertaining and only hype him up more. It was fun for those of us watching. It's like he is so confident he knows he can mess around and try something a bit unusual because he'll probably win with it, or if not will win one of the next games.

Pretty much. Pretty dumb post too. That's not how balance works, not to mention we know that BW is full of ridiculous sounding things on any side of any non mirror match up.

Protoss doesn't have a hard time winning against a terran other than Flash. He's the only one that guys like Bisu/Best can't beat consistently. I guarantee you if FlaSh was a zerg or a protoss he would dismantle in just the same way.

going bio in game 3, was just best counter vs carriers in that specific situation.
he calculated his odds and chose this specific bo as his best chance for winning.
If Bisu had not send his first 2 carriers for scout, it would be over most likely.

I'm not sure I'd give either of them that chance. They'd need to be around 45% against Flash in overall score to have a chance of that. If they win 40% of the time versus Flash their chance of a Bo5 win is 30%.

Deep 8 was because of gols impossible at the time.
Bisu almost lost that game too, and he apparently surrendered his fate by parking his carriers on the natural hill and his zealots all dies. Reaver timing saved him.
