This is what I don't understand about game 5 Flash vs Zero on Hitchhiker, was how Zero knew Flash had a ninja base. Flash could had gone one base wraiths or any number of things and Zero wouldn't had infrastructure to react to it till mutas came out.

This map... Seriously. It's a copy-paste from a couple of rounds ago. It's a joke. Don't even try to say how Soma should have done this or that. I'm just baffled that Flash took a mineral CC vs Zero instead of doing this. He would probably be in the final by now.

every single vulure made had like minimum 2 kills each. 2 hydras on hold position at main and nat minerals would've stopped all this shens

May be terran favoured but Soma's reaction is abysmal, which is the real issue here.

yes, it is a shame hidras come later than vultures and they need to be used to chase the current vulture in your base instead of using them to block the path

Flash has an army outside Soma's nat and all Soma has is 6 mutas and 2 scourge and Flash pulls back? What is going on here?

Edit:And then 1 min later he attacks into a couple of sunkens when Soma realises he is in trouble.

I don't think Zero knew. He only spotted it with the mutas.

I'll give credit to Soma for holding a Flash push from that position.

That's the thing I don't understand. Zero knew somehow. I watched the game again and I can't figure it out. Zero would had died if Flash had done anything other than that hidden expo. He did half hearted scout for the fac position, but it could had been anywhere. Maybe there was something like number of marines at the ramp.

I would have never thought that I would see a game where Flash's opponent plays bad and doesn't get rolled pre 10 minutes because Flash also plays very questionable. I mean Flash should win with a timing push pre swarm from here but yeah, if he waits until dark swarm is out, who knows what will happen...
