When people started doing the Mech build I thought to myself "Hey flash although you did bring back the use of mech at that game vs Jaedong, but you're too good for iloveoov's build arent you?" I hope soon someone (don't care who) will make some counter build making this build look retarded as shit. Cant agree more. MECH IS LAME. TvZ is Starcraft's glamor matchup because its such a fast paced, and on a knife edge type of matchup. Lurker/ling flanks, scourge cloning, defiler use vs mnm splitting, multiple attacks everywhere, irradiating. Whereas Mech is boring to watch and requires way less skill. Its basically attack move and easy macro (compared to microing mnm and pumping off 10+ barracks). As much as I hate Terran, at least win with skill rather than this mech bullshit. You've already got an advantage over Zerg -.- | ||

(Although TV or not, flash played really well, but magma showed promise) I'm not sure promise is really what maGma is going for at this point in his career. He's 5 years older than Flash and will (presumably?) be headed to the military within the next year or two. | ||

Vs canata he tried a 2 base all in hydra attack before siege (i think) and barely got thwarted by 1 bad mine (6 hydras?). Canata played very passive, so JD had time to come back, but he was still making up for a bad opener. | ||

I feel like zergs are quickly coming up while terrans aren't. If flash can use mech and stay on top, god bless him! | ||

Idra himself said that 2 hatch muta was impossible to stop on this new map and Medusa...... if Flash knows that some kind of 2 hatch muta is probable, why not force the game into a different style with early vulture pressure and mech? Especially Medusa which is hard as hell to play TvZ with MnM. Mech can be gay I admit, but it's maps and the fact that zergs insist on 2 Hatch mutas nowadays. Which is also maps... so, really it's just maps... *IMO* | ||

I feel like zergs are quickly coming up while terrans aren't. If flash can use mech and stay on top, god bless him! Agreed - especially with JD's recent rapeage of Terrans going standard mnm, I foresee lots of shiny metal in his future. | ||

Plague, from my experience, against mech is devastating. Dark swarm will nullify goliaths and vultures very well. | ||

Sea,Hwasin,FBH Those guys have such good micro and aggression that using mech would limit there skill. I do believe mech has a skill cap while bionic play doesn't imo. | ||

You've already got an advantage over Zerg -.- While you do have a point about the potential excitement of traditional TvZ, there were too many games that went the exact same way. At least now there's something different. Lately I've found PvZ more interesting anyway. | ||

However, it is extremely frustrating, that the vulture is basically an air unit when it comes to zerglings - it simply cannot be killed by them with modern day patrol micro and it slaughters them so fast its not like it can just be ignored while you go for the SCV. This allows Terran to bunker rush (even with proxy rax!) far too often without caring whether or not it succeeds becuase you can no longer simply counter with zerglings to punish them for the poorly executed rush, 1 vulture will simply rape your lings and you are now WAY behind instead of just slightly so. | ||
