Life reminds me more of Jaedong, smart, aggressive, efficient Leenock reminds me more of EffOrt, crazy, inefficient, eehhhh, fuck it
FlaSh wins most mind games and can fight the "you're supposed to do this/that" all day.
But when some crazy guy comes in and does shit you're not supposed to do, which is a corner you then cut out of your game play... it'll actually work
That's pretty much Leenock. He doesn't always take smart risks. But you're so dumbfounded and unprepared for them you get shafted.
I think this is an apt comparison, especially if Life makes it through and loses to flash again.

Maybe so, but Bomber was the guy who did the Bunker rush!

Incredible. In the span of one game. What other Korean Terran can claim the same! Taeja and Polt are like that. But Bomber is the King of Inconsistency.
I dunno.
Bomber vs Byun was IMO the epitome of looking unbeatable and looking embarrassingly bad in the span of a single series.
I don't think I've ever seen Taeja or Polt put on a display that had THAT huge of a swing in it.

He could have put tanks on the low ground near the worm, scan high ground, kill the worm, then he has position to defend his main, even if he loses lots. But Leenock has all his army stuck in Bomber's main, dying, while Bomber has position on Leenock's nat, killing the canal, then he kills Leenocks nat and its over. Yeah I thought he was going to do that and already thought how smart Bomber was, but then he didn't do it :[

It's not bad ladder cheese when it involves a godlike player and 400 APM's! SUCK IT!

And the Nydus, he held off well too, though he probably shouldn't have salvaged both bunkers in his main. But he just handled the 2nd Nydus so terribly. He didn't lift his main CC and he didn't micro his army against the roaches when the 2nd nydus was going on... Bomber made correct calls.
First "mistake" you say is cancelling his bunkers in the main, you don't know that a nydus is coming, the last nydus vT was Curious in GSL Season 4. 2nd nydus, its common knowledge that whenever a nydus fails you just don't put it in the same place, so bomber thought he was safe to go and punish Leenock. The tank donations was wierd, but the thing is you do NOT expect roaches to wander the map at random like Leenock had all game.

He's actually the oldest of the Top Korean Terrans. He looks 20. Yeah, I was actually super-surprised to learn he's younger than Mvp. Mvp seems so mature. Bomber's like his insane, immature older brother or something.

mission crazy for Life to win 4 games from Flash

If there ever was a map to nydus, it is daybreak.

No one really equal Bomber in that
Remember Bomber vs Marineking at GSTL on Daybreak ? The MULES landing in MKP main when Bomber was dropping ?
My head still hurts..

It's so stupid that sometimes you just simply think they would never be dumb/crazy/Leenock enough to do it. well leenock had the tumor there and he saw nothing was there.

OH MY GOD, Seriously, Day9 just commented on Bombers build that he did on Cloud Kingdom AND Antiga, that exact build.....

Pretty much.
The only time Zerg play bothers me on the ladder is when I encounter Zergs that just abuse Infestors and win on nothing but that unit alone.
Anything involving Nydus Worms, Mutalisks, Hydralisks, or Ultralisks just receives praise from me. If I lost to Leenock the way Bomber just did, I'd laugh at myself a little bit, call myself a noob and then type in ggwp before leaving.

How can a pro player with ~250 APM lose a CC to a roaches and lings?!
