remember that time July took a bunch of expansions and then didn't use one of them, at all, for several minutes until Flash killed it that was just swell.

Flash fans: I think we're getting too excited here. I may be rabid flash fan but when someone loses against a 2base terran when you have 7 Gas running (3 on min), you have thrown your goddamn game away.

If July is olympic, what level is Bisu/JD/Flash at is the question? 25000+ points on icc ftw?

Honestly, how often does Flash have to beat people from the brink of death to get some cred? The dude does this on an alarming basis. He still has his schtick of pissing away tournaments unintelligently, but he's like the king of unreasonable comebacks.

7 gas Zerg sounds like a crazy thing that should never exist.

July totally fucked up that last game, but Flash's play was really amazing. No other Terran could have won that.

I dunno why July insisted on going so ultra heavy all the time with the relatively low amount of drones he had. Especially in the 3rd game. Yes, he had 3 early bases, but the backwards expansions have really few minerals on Outsider and despite having 4 gas early and then 6 gas (not counting the bottom right expo, which he only had for a short time) he only was mining minerals from his main (not even 1 drone per patch I think?), natural and the bottom backwards base.
He also got too eager early on when he killed Flash's bunker & marines and forced him to lift his CC. The SCVs & medics defended the choke well, he should have retreated and waited a bit to finish it with muta/ling

bad series ~

Good job Flash :O

As bizarre as that all was it's pretty plain to see Flash just wanted it alot more.

true, I must agree with this.

But I highly doubt anyone will mark this game as Flash's win, more of a July's Failure

he had that one forever although the commentators didn't mention it, he just wasn't mining from it at all (despite hurting for minerals like crazy)

wtf July could just mass muta, and win at the beginning,

he did get a lot of mutas, but at one point he got them stuck between turrets and marines and received a shitload of damage, but I totally agree that he shouldn't have lost that third game...


He got not much more then 12, and started to tech, he could easily mass ridiculous amount of mutas from all those gases that he had (that would kill Flash before he could get a vessel, and his marine count would be kept down). Instead he did go for immobile tech that just pushed him into defensive position, and let Flash expand.

It was flash's cool head that kept him from gging and staying in the game, july took 7 gas and that was it he was only on 3 mineral bases, the guards didnt do any damage and he kept letting his defilers get sniped before taking out the vessels. Against flash macro even off 2-3 base you've gotta be spot on and unfortuantly july's late game just screwed him up
edit: But i agree with you, that was julys game to lose

Gotta love getting your defiliers irradiated before they even get to the place they need to defile. I still think they shouldn't actually kill a unit, just take it to 1 hp.


No way. This would make it all but impossible to kill defilers, and late-game TvZ is hard enough as it is since it takes forever to kill ultralisks.

A defiler (not caught in the open) usually gets off at least two swarms or plagues before it dies. If it didn't die then - needed to be killed, by tank or firebat only mind you - that's another 2 or 3 swarms. A terran literally couldn't stop that - killing the defilers to stop the swarms and let the m&m rule the open field is how Terran keeps up with ultra-ling-lurk, and even then it's a close call.

As far as these games, even though Flash's play was amazing, July was missing lurkers and not making enough scourge (to control vessel numbers). Also losing some defilers with poor placement.

Yes, I misworded that. I meant from which he was only mining from for a short time.
