Mutas usually get their armor grades first, so the valk damage is handicapped severely, unless you upgrade your attack. 2. Valks are vulnerable to scourge, as they are quite expensive. 3. Spreading mutas can solve the valk problem to some extent. I am sure that valks work in long games, for example in TvT if the opponent is massing wraiths, but in these tense games where every unit counts, you don't have the economy to build a critical mass of valks. edit: And finally, as the guardians come with heavy armor and will be upgraded even more, it will take ages until your valks manage to get those down. Wraiths do the job better there. | ||

I think one or two could have helped support the wraiths, I'm not really expert enough to know though. They would suck if he just went valks instead of wraiths though. | ||

You saying his micro was bad that game? He lost a lot of unit due to Flash defending very well.. His micro was just amazing, he did screw up a little with the guardians, but by then he already had 4-5 expansion so I think he was safe anyway. | ||

JD didnt need to micro that much he had 5 hatches going, 15 muts at a time Blue storm is too imbalanced, that mineral line at the nartural is way too difficult to defend to Ts agianst mut harras. Flash spent all his resources building turrets and marines trying to defend that natural against a handful of JD's muts While JD was able to expand and tech without any pressure due to the constant mut harass pining Flash in his base. Bad play by Flash. | ||

 But Jesus he's really pushing Jaedong I think and yeah Jaedong looks almost beatable today with his play against a very strong playing Flash. Good contain though it was on Blue Storm. Going to be interesting to see how the other maps plays out.Hoping for a Jaedong massacre of Flash with lots of swarm and ultras!  But some long and epic games, great series! | ||

Bad play by Flash. It wasn't bad play by Flash. I mean, if you look at another game on Blue Storm, Kwanro vs Canata, it ended earlier, because Canata isn't as good, yet Canata didn't do anything wrong. You need an ungodly amount of turrets to defend your min line on Blue Storm, and moving out is quite difficult, when they have muta harasses that goes and takes out 3/4 turrets even with rines defending. | ||
