Snow was behind on ups and on 3 base too long and first recall was desperation. But with that little breathing room he somehow pulled it back with crazy reaver play. I really thought the doom push would end everything. And snow nearly fucked himself with one bad engagement where he lost his 2 arbs. This series is showing how timeless Bw. I remember saying the same shit with razorsuKe during one of the earlier rounds of this season, and now it's happening again. Play is getting elevated. Snow just won in a macro game vs Flash!

It's funny to see Gladiator called "Flash's map". He's never had much success on it (by his standards). I bet it's one of his least favorite maps.

The island map win was exactly becuase Flash believed in his strategy and maphacks. He had no units at home but perfectly used the wraith. It won him the game. This game snow was able to punish that lost him the game. This is always how flash plays. Just so rare that players are able to exploit it.

He wasn't even looking for covering against the drops coming in. The top route was completely open. Unlike the game before where Flash was constantly looking for the shuttles.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

I can't believe snow took that, he played with 1-0 vs 3-2 upgrades on 4v4 bases for like 10 minutes, how is that possible??

It's not if terran defends. Terran left his 4th completely open all game.
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

How hard is it to build one fucking turret and leave a couple of units at your only running expansion?

Pretty hard when a couple of units is all you have

2 goliaths there is worth the 30+ scv's that died there

2.Kill goliaths
3.Kill SCVs
I mean, it's Snow

Yeah, this too. I think Flash's favorite map in this pool is probably actually Sparkle...

Aw, so well played by flash that game had he just had 1-2 units at his expansion. He threw a great lead by letting single reavers late game repeatedly get 20-30 kills each...

His 3-2 units would have won the game easily had he just put any effort into defending his 4th base


The thing is. He would have to leave a chunk of units becuase of the reaver control all the time from snow. One reaver repeatedly killed many units, vulutres etc.
And flash have by effect of TvP keep his army in the size of critical mass. He also had to worry about arbiter recalls in his main should he also keep units there?

You guys need to stop saying flash just had to leave units.

these two posts. Snow played well with the constant aggression and potential backstabs. Also, Flash had a smaller army and had to keep making units. Snow was doing well enough in engagements overall so having several less units would've costed him even more. Also, this is the way Flash plays. Guess the pressure got to him because he left some units back several times.

Oh I know. Says a lot about the map pool. Funny thing is I bet ASL chose Gladiator last season deliberately to be the hardest "standard" map for Flash. And then they doubled down enough to make it the map that gets vetoed in a PvT by the Protoss player.

I know that looked awesome, but at the time all scvs died, I looked at flash's minerals
he was at 2700 LOL

That was Snow, pretty sure

ya, Snow floated 3k at one point lol and he wasn't maxed. He should've taken a fifth but maybe he thought he couldn't defend and wanted to stick to his 4 base count.

Snow's scouting 100% on first try =) what's his secret
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.
