First tank out and siege researching. Flash's expo is finally done. Flash playing very safe. Starting ebay. Free has 3 goons out and is researching range + starting robo. Hes also starting the gas at his nat.

Robo done and a 3rd and 4 th gate warping in. Flash s couting around with 2 seperate groups of 2 vults. Flash getting a very quick 2nd cc and an ob can see it

Free has finished his 3rd. NIce vult use gets the goon on the ramp lol. Robo support bay is done at the choke to block vult movement partially. Free getting a forge and his reaver just popped out. Hes still at 4 gates though. Flash using the build he used in the gom tv invitational. Getting a very quick +1 and starting a staport right after his 3rd and 4th facts. Free is getting a 4th base and a stargate is done. Hes just now adding a 5th and 6th gates.

I like the way Free is playing this. The early arbs is definitely a great choice. Wow flash's min only cc will finish around the same time as free's min only nexus

Sick sick macro.

Flash up to 7 and 8 facts and his harassing the min only with 2 tanks and a dropship. Nice. Free just now getting his 5th base online. Flash got some probe kills with those tanks and no loses. Vessel already out for flash. An arb out for Free.

Free en route to the T min only! He has a shuttle most likely with temps. BIG BATTLE! FLASH's UNITS ARE SPREAD BEAUTIFUL AND HE GETS A DECISIVE WIN IN THE FIRST FIGHT! Free runs licking his wounds and flash gets an emp on an arb a little later.

ANOTHER FIGHT! THe shuttle is sniped and free realizes quickly he cant handle the T army which is at 2/1 already. HOLY FUCK FLAHS IS GOOD. During these battle he droped the 5th base with that dropship with 2 tanks and killed a lot of probes and is taking out the base.

Christ, Free went to pieces. Goddamnit Free, you're not going to go anywhere as long as you're your own worst enemy.

The dropship harass was a beautiful touch. I don't know what free was thinking but his first attack was not very well executed at all. That being said..I don't think he is used to encoutering a T with such flawless macro.

Give flash some credit

The real problem was that when free went to attack in the first fight flash was ALREADY 2/1 and free was only 1/1. After the first fight flash had the game easy.

See, this is why cheering for Free is a harrowing experience. He had right there a chance most Protoss would have killed for, and the terrible attack just put his chances through the gutter. Free : (

edit. Was talking as much about Free's tearing up at the end as anything else.

Um what chance? Flash was rock solid the whole game

Seriously I'm very curious as to what sort of opening you saw for free.
