Congrats to Flash, sad for hero Should've known that Flash will try to bust his third with all thos marines just standing there. Also, what is it with zergs trying to cut so many corners. Sure, he survived the sunken attack but the amount of damage he would've taken if he didn't would've been immense.

That must have been a tough reality check for anyone thinking hero has a chance.

never! I'm sure that if they have another series, there's a better chance that hero can take it. Game 3 showed that he can win in a macro game, he just needs to get that third base up and running. Even in the last game, hero pulled his mutas back due to Flash's feint and in turn, got busted. If he kept them there, that base would've been defended 100%. The game would've looked different too.

Hero actually had the third lurker, but his mistake was to keep it near the hatch. Had he placed it along with other two, he would've survived there.

I don't think it was much of a mistake, but rather a calculated risk. Had the mutas arrived just a tiny bit earlier and had the spikes hit a little better, Flash would've lost his entire bio force for a couple of lurkers and the initiative would've gone to Hero.

I dont think he had the lurker, it probably just morphed in while his lurkers at the ramp got crushed and he then burrowed it at the hatch because it had nowhere else to go... at least that seems most likely to me, don't think they showed that lurker being done while those other two lurkers were still at the choke. Just saw a hydra standing at the hatch a bit earlier i think?

On FS hero had 2 drones on nat gas since he pulled drones to def flash 1st marine push. That's why he lost.

agree, don't believe he had it around till it was too late. Man, another minute or mutas being there and this game would've been different. Much like game 1 with hero going really greedy and getting punished hard.

This is exactly what happened. A bit before Flash attacked we saw 1 unmorphed hydra at the hatch. It was clearly morphing as Flash busted the ramp. Maybe if Hero had 10~ more seconds the lurker saves him - but tiny edges win championships.

I don't think that's the case. It was probably late because the hatch there finished quite late so he had no larva to build the 3rd hydra/lurker. If he would've just built that hatch a bit earlier, that would've helped quite a bit more, don't think it was a gas thing at all.

Congratulations, FlaSh.

[image loading]

This is the perfect trophy for him. I remember he said something about switching races after getting his 3rd MSL/3rd OSL victories, but because KeSPA was transitioning to SC2 we didn't get to see him play another race. I wonder if he'll give it a shot now and show he can dominate just as hard with any race.

I see flashes of Jaedong in hero, pun not intended. the big lurker drops in flashes main in game 3, opening up his expansions to that massive multipronged ling attack? That's a jaedong killer instinct move, no doubt about it.

Might give these a re-watch tomorrow night when they're uploaded.

I'm guessing Season 5 won't be as early as was planned to. I'm not sure Bisu and JD are playing in the next season.

lol yeah I know he was joking.
But since he brought it up, I always thought that offracing can win you games, can make for an interesting series, and should be allowed.

the good thing about offracing is that if Flash wins ASL using zerg or protoss, maybe just maybe folks can stop yelling Tesagi every time Flash wins. Given, I don't think he's at that level yet in his off-races but w/e
