The usual: Don't flame casters or players. Don't discuss balance in this or any LR thread. Don't call your fellow posters idiots. Be excited, happy and entertained.

Am I alone, who noticed that Flash didn't try hard to win? Only bio, no tanks, no multi-drops.... These games don't worth to be named as "games played by Flash". I don't understand finals. There were so many great games and finals were so.... uninteresting and resembled games in a "Bronze" ladder league.
Poor Flash, how could you loose games played after same strategy: 3 hatcheries, mass lings to banelings with mutas. None terran will defense against 40+ lings + banelings at early game w/o tanks with only bio. None terran will win such zerg with only widow mines when there're so much brood lords and corruptors... ultralisks....
I still don't believe it was Flash who played these games against Life.

The morale of the story...Don't rely on Widow mines. It's a gimmicky unit. Sometimes works, sometimes completely fails...I've said this since beta but nobody believed me. Also mutalisks completely shut downs medivacs.
Game Over, Man! Game Over!

So, does anybody know why Flash never used hellbats? Wouldnt battle hellbat/marine completely destroy mutaling bling, in particular life's style of just ling/bling until 11+ minutes?

Hellbats against mutas..Yeah right!

I'm really really glad that life won, everybody even the casters were moaning about terran. its things like idras tweet and people jumping on the bandwagon what gets this game stale and obsolete. I mean check the viewership for last nights finals, i have never seen them numbers.

Story of this tournament: "Top GSL players owning."
+ Show Spoiler +

most recent attending GSL winner wins
4/4 Code S players in the semis
7/8 Code S players in the quarters

the only three matches in which a Code S player lost to a non-Code S player were MKP vs Jjakji and Stephano vs Last and Creator to Polt

Story of the LRs: "Zerg UP, Flash OP; oh wait nevermind."

really hyped for GSL now. Seems to be very representative of the best players in the world right now.

He was already dethroned in GSL.

While I agree on your point that he should at least have built some tanks or even could've switched his style completely to mech for one or more games, these finals were nevertheless really, really good and I felt I watched two monsters trading blows, so your comment doesn't make sense to me...

They both showed phenomenal play and decision making and after the 2-2 I was sure they would take it to game 7 But if Life continues to be so successful I think he could sooner or later become the first SC2 bonjwa, but time and future results will tell! In the end I'm glad a Zerg won and MC showed how to take games off Terrans, so I can still use my speed drops with widow mines

Overall pretty awesome tournament MLG, also thanks for the free 720p stream!!!

He was already dethroned in GSL.

There will be fewer zergs to touch him now though. I can't wait to see if he can dominate like I know he can.

Right now?
Well GSL was in SC2 always the benchmark and every player from there was dominating foreign tournaments besides he met another Korean there.
Of course there were some Exceptions (Thorzain, Stephano...) but overall, GSL always had the higherst performance of players

2nd is still a great achievement given the players Flash has to go through. Kudos to him!

besides there are some polls, I recommend the series of bomber vs goswser, especially game 3 (u can ignore game 1).
It was also interensting go see, that Life made MC look like a Schoolboy. Hasn't been the greatest series, but to see how MC had NO chance vs Life was just impressive. This Kid is even ahead in mindgames.
Life vs Last was also a good series, especially if (from a terran point of fiew) you think what could maybe stop this guy.
If you like TvT (they are quite cool so far in HotS), I liked the Flash vs Innovation Series- but I am biased, since i am a fan of Flash

flash vs innovation (probably the best tvt hots I've seen so far)
life vs last (really sick mech play and clutch defense by life)
flash vs life (game 1 was pretty good. The rest were pretty one-sided aside from a cheese)
bomber vs gowser (something happens in game 3 that was probably the highlight of the entire tournament)
