hmm looks like he refined the build timings but the actual army transition still looks weak.
I'm thinking a better zerg would bank harder on that weak initial confrontation.

Agreed. :/. Though I guess he wasn't in any danger there. I just don't see him winning a TvZ vs's someone A-S class with play this level.

Flash's late game SK terran is just too perfect,only Jaedong/Effort can touch him in that department, Julys midgame was pretty damn good , but his late game was ugh. I really liked how he played it out. July seems to prepared really hard for this.

Entertaining game ... but I don't see Flash beating Effort playing like this.

July also played very well - finally decided to reverse his trend of playing like crap in the first game of a GOM series (only to come back and handle business in the remaining games of course)!

Go figure, Flash wins when he builds enough turrets and goes MnM.

This guy could be the next Hwasin with his amazing MnM control (and be good at TvP and TvT while he's at it). He just needs to get over his fetish with goliaths and trying to 'redfine' the game more than he already has.

July played powerplay style. He did cut his tech and had a huge force for that. Just like in PvT when you do not tech to arbiters or psy and just whore units from 15 gates for the first ~20 minutes. If you have a big enough advantage you tech. That was July's game plan if you ask me.

You guys don't know what you're talking about. Flash played great that game. Both july and flash are easily S class..what about flash's play was so freakin disappointing?

Haha, seconding this. You guys are loopy if you don't recognize S-Class mnm control and Macro that makes Best look like a chump.

I'm not defending Flash's previous games recently, but this is exactly how he played against Jaedong about a year ago when Flash was the ONLY guy in the world who could keep up with the Tyrant.

A month (or maybe twelve) ago, we would have said "hey Flash's timing was perfect, shut down July's 5th and 6th right before they got rolling and did exactly what was necessary to win."

Problem is, Flash has lost the benefit of the doubt these days, so now it looks like "hey Flash was really close to losing that midgame fight and letting July pick up a 5th and 6th and losing".

Game 2 starting! July sends a 9 scout. He 12 hatches.

Flash takes gas early with no wall.

Mech or Bio mech again :/
