So I guess I'm not the only one dancing around naked in my room flailing my newly braided pubic hair around?

Or is that just me?

the game of tonight, for me, will be Flash vs Luxury. It took so long for someone (apart from Best) to take down giant Flash spectacularly. It is no easy strategy or feat to pull off, something of the ordinary. This game blows the roof off. This game will probably go down as one of the best to me, thinking of the pressures situation and odds Luxury was in.

I agree, I picked out luxury as my favourite player some time before he made his first starleaugue. (I even wrote an article that most of you probably didn't see)

Now I'm just happy that my extreme fanboyism isn't completely unfounded.

Maybe after this game, more people will realise what an awesome player he is.

Damn, Flash lost

, but I still think he can take out Luxury in the next 2 games

.

Other games was just as I thought - hope to see Flash, July, Best and Jangbi (well, I don't really care who will win Jangbi or Backho

) in the semis

Finally, Backho gets convincingly destroyed by a player who played well. Thankyou, Jangbi.

btw lux was a bit careless all over the time - he could made better job with his guardians, 70% of the time they were sitting in the middle of nowhere but it was ok since they served their purpose, but the most wtf moment were the idle ultras in flash's main - lux just dropped them, destroyed the fac and the control tower and while the lings were doing some job 4-5 ultras just sit there in do nothing ! its important to say that lux was attacking 7 oclock at the same time but his multitasking was kinda bad this game. I just cant say anything about flash's play - he needed to get more dropships and be more aggressive in his effort of destroying lux's tech tree... flash is just waaay to passive in early to midgame, we all know that we is a late game +3/+3 monster but his ultra safe game in the first maybe 10 min turn out to be some sort of a problem. Best punished him for that , now lux made a profit from the same thing. Anyway I think flash will get himself 2gather and thou I dont like him at all he will prevail once again

yeah, i agree. In some of other Flash's games, he likes to build fewer units (fewer defence) in return for faster expansions and strive to out macro his opponents. Flash uses his superior micro to hold on as defense until his econony kicks in. I have seen savior do it with zerg, spreading his defences thin in the first 10 minutes. It is an interesting concept and can pay off in the late game. It is exciting and reminds me of Iloveoov. lol.

Yea I noticed that too. Flash tends to do an ULTRA greedy strategy, even moreso than oov. For crying out loud he sacrified scouting for a superior econ vs. Best (a pretty cocky decision that didn't pay off). Flash is like oov but with better micro, greedier macro, and better game sense (except when he does things like not scout).
