I don't think even Zerg players want to watch a ZvZ finals in a tournament like this... right?

He didn't dive into that mm/valk/tank ball, WENT AROUND stopped drop, like he just KNEW what to do.

he played that absolutely perfectly

sunken stalls

getting the third gas and getting +1 armor so that it doesnt become a 2 gas all-in

sniping that dropship

constantly getting scourges and sniping those valks

zergling attack on 6 to pull flash's army and eventually costing him that expo

zero played this map absolutely perfectly


I must say I'm really impressed how he handled this map indeed. And I was already a fan before.

gg, well done by zero, very decisive play. Flash has seemed a bit shaky this season


Praying for light to win on tuesday so we get a TvZ final!

Key moment in the series was Zero scouting Flash's 2nd scv in game 4. If Flash scouts the hydra den he defends it easily and the series goes 3-1

was he busting those temples down right at the start? it takes so long to take 'em down and his lings got in at the perfect time.

anyway the casters pointed out how zero played today's builds a bit differently

usually zergs go all in on 2-gas, but zero paused muta production after 6-8 mutas to get a 3rd gas, stabilise his economy and ensuring a plan B to fall back on in terms of economy. this slight alteration in his build helped throw Flash off his tempo with the unexpected number of +1 armor mutas

Turns out 1 gas valk sucks, who would’ve thought. You need that 2nd gas to get that critical mass of valks.


Flash was able to skip tanks on the other maps which made his valk timing stronger (more raxes). On Hitchhiker Z's 3rd is a back expo, Zero just needs to mass sunk 1 spot (nat).

zero saying how winning flash means winning all Terrans, so the casters were already congratulation him in advance for the ASL finals victory, so zero clarified "oh but light might lose and anything can happen in zvz" lmao

Well, I don't. Light has a good chance to beat Soma as well. The last series a few months ago went 4-1 in favour of Light (Ro4 KSL4).
