Usual rules apply: No balance whining, caster/player bashing etc. Let's have fun! |
People on this LR thread hahaha can't please them all as they say.
Did Flash make some mistakes (infestors in all of his bases FOREVER)? yes. Did Bly stay on ground units too long against mech? yes.
They still played extremely well, particularly in game three. Flash's micro (and macro after losing so many SCV's) was incredible and Bly's defense of the reapers along with the defense of the BFH in his main was most impressive. By far the best foreigner vs Korean match-up of this tournament.

Why does everyone think flash is so angry or shaken? This isn't exactly flash's first lan... -_-. So annoying to read LR when Flash is playing. Everyone over hypes to infinity and then freaks out if he drops a single set.

Yeah vengeful Flash is going to violently snap Bly's neck next game.

I don't understand why everyone thinks that was such an epic game  I agree to an extent. I understand why he didn't pull back right away, but I feel like after the first engagment went somewhat evenly, he should have pulled back and turtled. It was like Flash was replaced by Thebest at that point or something.

It's pathetic how many people think this was somehow a great game. Great games are even and exciting and played between players of equal skill. Flash rightly deciding he can't lose the series and playing around does not make a good game even if he realizes he screwed up and tried to fight back.
Good games need players giving it their all or the exciting competition is phony.

With Vipers he absolutely could have

Also Husky saying that Flash is known for everything. Literally 3-4 times every game, "Flash is known for (blah blah blah)". Losing to a foreigner must be earth shattering for him I have no doubts he's gonna win the series, but he's probably feeling a bit angry now. KRs are usually pretty proud in games, as are the chinese. If you watched G-League, the face of the chinese casters when LGD.int won set 3... just wow.
Not a chance he will be shaken by that. The failed 8/8/8, or the Infested Terrans all over the place, would have doomed him against any Zerg even remotely close to his skill level. Yet after both those setbacks he almost pulled it off.

It was dramatic but not a very impressive game imo

He had no money and when you're that far behind you have to get more tanks or you just die to ultra maxes.

Lets not get ahead of ourselves with a comeback bly won one game I mean it happens to anyone. No player has a winning percent over like 80 so I mean you lose games no matter how good you are just because you cant always spot say burrowed infestors.

Man, considering being down 0-2, the lag and how tense the game was the entire time, Bly was cool, calm, collected..... and Flash was ejected. + Show Spoiler +Anyone who got that reference needs to drink

he could've just gone for Thors to take out the broods, if bly goes roaches he already has enough ground defense

If anything, the last game shows how good Husky and TB is at raising energy for a match.

Seriously, he could of ended the game 5 minutes sooner by getting vipers. Transitioning to spire tech was a huge gamble, assuming that Flash would stay on his side of the map (which he did), I think Bly would of been better off going viper or swarm host, but he did not. He played very well and made it a very entertaining game.
