If flash wins this ASL does that mean he finished starcraft?
I really wanted a bigger opponent, like Nate Marquardt, or King Neptune, or Zeus, or Zeus and Fedor, or Fedor on Zeus's shoulders, and they can both punch but only Zeus can kick.

Just play safe and solid. Even if you're at disadvantage early game, just gradually chip your way for the win against Flash's P/Z (Flash Terran is just an auto-loss, too bad).



is the strat to just not practice vs T matchups then? since nobody is going to win those games anyway

So far it seems like people playing Flash kill themselves with the way they open the games.

I am really happy with the result though, BW hasn't been as exciting as this for quite a while for me.

Some of his opponents got lucky like Snow with game 2 opening Nexus first against him then he killed him still.

This tournament is as exciting to me as the island map ASL (sparkle i think was the map name) maaaaaaaaan that tournament was sooooooooo fun

The game on Eclipse showed that's not enough, even when you get a 14cc vs 12 nex game.

This is so funny because there is some sense on this. I mean if you are terran and you meet Flash on the bracket that is happening

Also, playing tricky against Flash's random risks triggering some unorthodox counter-move from Flash.

And when the game gets weird, higher chance of Flash to prevail due to starsense.

He wasn't exactly playing it safe going for a vulture drop from a proxy starport.

I don't think that was lucky at all, FE builds are fairly easy to crush in PvP (Flash didn't react properly and Snow still handed him the game later with his goon move-out and mismicro here and there). If anything, Flash got lucky that game.

I think the biggest problem is the ambiguity, you have to scout early, and until then play safe.

Rush blew his advantage by risking with the vulture drop. He could've just soft-contained Flash, and macro up.

Maybe Rush would still lose in late-game anyway. But the point is that Rush contributed to his own quick downfall by making risky moves.

honestly all of the games were a huge let-down. Flash starsense is OP too much. Hopefully someone will manage to get to long macro game vs Flash's P or Z.

Rush probably wins if Flash didn't also kill waaay more workers with reavers than Rush vult drop

Zerg has the best chance vs Flash since Flash wouldn't be as good in muta micro and Zerg has an advantage ZvP.

Yeah. After that Snow series which makes his PvP really ambigious for the rest of the remaining toss he could face in the tournament.

No way flash is winning zvz against those who grind their lives with it

His vs T is obviously too good because his terran random is almost autowin

Flash won't win this ASl because of the Zergs. Soulkey won't fall for any of this shit.

Soulkey will get eliminated this round tho.

But I think next round snow will overcome flash.

I think the only way to beat Flash is going Random yourself.
