Cool game, the Goliaths finally take it.
Furthermore, tournaments should use matchup-specific maps

flash better have some special builds that soma didn’t prepare for.

if it’s just standard soma will win easy since he probably did mass practice with light and rush. hopefully he also played vs royal and other brain terrans


lol it's flash nobody prepares for their opponent in a tournament-setting BoX than flash

If you watch Jinjin's video about Flash losing to JD, you'll see that his practice partner was Soma.
And what did Flash share? That he lost to Soma non-stop. Go watch it, if you wanna get hyped for the finals.

Sure, Flash isn't going to play the same and he'll be beyond ready, but yeah, Soma can def win this and anyone saying otherwise is simply wrong. TvZ ain't the same as TvT for Flash.

That being said, I'll go for Flash 4:2, and an amazing series worthy of the finals!

Also.. I don't think it'll be Flash's last ASL. As long as that man has a hand he'll play.


eh i think that's exactly what it is: hype. a hype vid. flash is humble. i think it's more likely soma gets rocked than it is likely he puts up a legit fight.

predicting 4-2 or 4-1 flash over soma


In that Jinjin video Flash doesn't just say he lost to Soma non-stop; he says that the results were dependent on whether he went CC-first mech (all losses) or bio (all wins):

"I came to a realization. During practice... I was actually losing every game. Against Soma and herO... I got 0-8'd vs Soma and I was losing every game to herO, too. But... I don't know. I was sticking to CC-first mech like an idiot. I won all the game I went bio in, but I lost every game I went mech."

It will be interesting to see if either of them overcome those practice patterns.


Game1 complete mental victory for Flash.

Again we see the difference between practice Flash and tourney Flash.
He lost 0-8 to Soma with Mech in practice for JD/Bisu group.
Imagine the mental fuck up this does to Soma now, playing a completely different Flash.
Plus he got to watch Soma play vs Terrans constantly, while Soma got to see jack-s of Flash vZ.

I feel tempted to vote no, because why would you get +1 flyer attack first when you yave 3 gas and it's already obvious it's mech? Soma should have gotten +1 armor first.

I was thinking the same! But it was his map pick and I guess that he figured something out in his practice. He just couldn't practice it against a Flash level Terran so all his plans are in doubt as a default.
