Is this how all Flash games go? Opponent does something and then he dies?
Flash did so much more than what is visible to us.
-He blind built a bunker to stall the 2gate range goon because he smelled something funny from Snow blocking his choke so early
-He always found a soft spot and net postive trades with his vulture raids
-He showed insane patience when his raids were doing so much damage
-He scouted Snow's 3rd base nearly perfectly
-He waited to get a science vessel + 1 goliath to pick observers so that Snow would not know where/when to attack him
There is literally no other terran in the world that would have the brains and speed to do all of the above.

making vultures good talent toi have
esp when you have to drop them in strange places and run through at weird times and always be cost efficient

Game1 was a Flash masterclass, so beautiful.

absolutely insane game from Flash. No mistakes, impeccable vulture harass, keeping things safe and solid. Impressive.
Yeah, his defense early with the bunker was also flawless, someone with less good control might have lost a lot stuff or died when Snow rushed past the bunker early.

Last is like the next best terran but he plays nothing like flash.

what is this ad flash and the furious?

Masterful game by Flash, but it was actually a pretty big and completely avoidable mistake to let the Bunker die. That set him back a lot. If he had also lost his Dropship, it would have been a completely different game.

Snow finally got his macro going, not floating minerals at all 😀

Nah this time the vultures were key to this.
Otherwise things could have snowballed out of control in favour of Snow.
Flash is hard to predict because throught his career he seemed to play perfectly standard but just above everyone else but, at the same time, he could be seen as someone who would pull ridiculous strategies and make them work.
This makes him a very tough opponent to prepare against. If you focus on standard you have a mountain to climb because that is almost unbeatable….if you try to prepare special builds or to anticipate his, you are out of your Comfort zone but he seems rather unfazed about unorthodox games. Sigh….but Snow actually stands a decent chance in regular standard games.

That dropship survivng was a relly big deal.

snow did make a mistake not rushing the goons up to the ramp below asap. the stronger pressure against the bunker would shift the momentum for snow earlier

Snow wasn't able to build more than 4 gates for most of the game and flash had 5 facts
|
i wish this flash + girl video had english subs
or i understood korean
|
you can tell flash is a god bc he gets iced coffee with milk/cream and doesn't have to run to the bathroom immediately after.

This goes back to "cheddar terran" days, he was cheese master and then became standard player. He has it all.

Snow's third was nothing but a sinkhole until he finally places that 2nd pylon to properly protect it from vultures. Snow isn't used to playing Terrans this relentess, no protoss is used to it, to Flash. They forget how strong he is until they play him again. As LAst said in selection ceremony while chosing other Terran to create a 4T group due to his amazing TvT, "Flash isn't a Terran, I'll never chose Flash".

lol, Flash's true weakness, stingy insects trauma
|
just imagine, in some time Flash will end up being someone's father. Waaaat?

tbh it's a hard map for protoss to take a third esp when dropships are out and he needed to be a base ahead for a LONG time to be able to hold that push. not gonna blame the map but flash abused the hell out of that map

Comon they need to continue the show, we've got ways to go.
