I dunno, man. I love Flash as much as anyone, but in that game, the third time his 9 o'clock got reaver-raped, maybe it was time to put a little bit of D down... even if it was just a couple of turrets and some mines.

Next game was the redemption, though. Holy crap.




You need to rewatch the game and see flashs economy. He took a small chance of not building turrets there for a big chance that Snow would not keep remaking reavers (protoss normally never does that). It is not a mistake it is oppotunity cost which is what flash always excells at. Soemtimes it costs him games against players playing their peak game.

The game you just watched was him doing that again and getting the oppotunity right...

If he'd only gotten successfully reaver-dropped a couple of times, I'd agree.

But it happened. FIVE. TIMES.

I'm sure Napoleon after Waterloo insisted his strategy usually works.

Flash is still the best in the world though. But he can be overly stubborn. See 14CC vs Effort in the OSL Finals.

This must be the first time in 10,000 years I've seen Flash doing something as desperate as a hidden expo.
