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. We're talking about different things here. I have no doubts Flash is gonna play his normal self in the following set(s), he's a pro, he's been doing this for years. That doesn't mean he isn't mad. | ||

Don't you just cheer for the one you like best? | ||

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. The IT widow mine shenanigans were really cool as well. | ||

It was dramatic but not a very impressive game imo Many of the best and most dramatic games are exciting because of mistakes and miscalculations, not because of impeccable play. | ||

I don't understand why everyone thinks that was such an epic game  Because he DID lose 70 scvs. Bly also held the early aggression and the hellion harass. It was epic because there was just a poll about whether a foreigner would win a map and it just happened. And it was very exciting because Flash still made it a game after that mistake. | ||

He also had less than 200 gas, and wasn't mining much of it to start with. Game was over, I don't understand what goes through some people's mind. | ||
