I don't agree with most of what Nokeboy said, but I thought there was a window where Flash could have built 4-6 vultures (or just used his marines + existing tanks) and attacked before Shuttle had an army to speak of. Do I remember the timing wrong (I'll have to re-watch when video gets up), or was there a reason why Flash couldn't attack safely?

I don't think he had enough facs up iirc. And he had to knock out the proxy gate. Also the bit where he had walled himself in, Shuttle had plenty of goons out by the time it was knocked down again.

Vultures might have helped, but Flash (being Flash) put up another CC instead. I may have to watch this again to be sure though.

EDIT: Also, Happy Birthday flash!

Good job men! We defeated the evil troll by banding together and standing our ground. We did not give an inch, and finally, frustrated beyond all measure, he cast himself on our defenses, rending his guts and spilling his blood. Had we not defended so mightily, we may have lost to his cheesy tactics.

awesome post! XD

Happy Birthday, Flash! :D

I guess the best offense is a FlaSh-like DEFENSE.

Which proves Nokeboy to be wrong, lol.

Link to Flash Shuttle game, Heartbreak Ridge.

Why there are no vods at English site while they are already available at the Korean site?

They're playing the semis, there is no way they can play eachother in the finals. I would dig a Flash vs Jaedong finals.

Seeing July beat Flash would be satisfying, but seeing him advance to the finals only to lose miserably to Effort or Jaedong would not be. For July's sake I hope he loses to Flash in a tight series.

Yeah July! SkyHigh plays awesome at times (especially against P) but he still has a lot of work to do on his TvZ game.

I would be so disappointed if Tempest beat Jaedong (again). Iris is one of my favorite players so I wouldn't mind seeing him beat Jaedong, but I don't think he could stand up to Flash's TvT so that would be disappointing.

If by some fluke the finals ended up Iris vs July, that would be pretty exciting. But Flash vs Jaedong/Effort will produce the best games.
