Terran finally can win games based on strategy that doesn't require 500 APM, I'm happy.

As a Flash fan I am holding back the tears, sure was this game an hour? Yes. Does that mean it takes away from the absolute greatest skill ever shown? No! Flash may never be the greatest SC2 player, now he can say he played the greatest game ever in both games.

How Flash came back after that gigantic fungal is incredible. People angry about the run time need to realize just how much concentrated and consistent skill it took for Flash to keep up with the constant swarms of free units, mitigate their damage, keep his raven ball alive with those SICK PDDs as he was running from a muta flock hell bent on winning the game. He had to keep the other Ravens alive with Infestors, manuver his Thors and Tanks in great spaces, steal Lifes bases. For 45min-1hour.

Life was playing his style to near-perfection so Flash also had to play his mech style the best mech has ever been played vs. Swarm Host play.

Flash IMO gave the single best performance based on the rigors of the hour long game that I have seen.

Well said. I was incredibly impressed by the skill shown by both players, myself.

God mech is so wonderful. I love watching Flash's mech destroy those boring swarmhosts.

Those 15 swarmhosts exist only so that mech army doesn't just outright march across and kill him. Maxed out mech armies are unbeatable and it's infuriating.


C'mon it's not like you can"t win without SH. Roach Hydra Viper is a really effective composition.

Hehe yes it's very effective at losing horribly.


Tell that to Forgg when he lost with bigger army to blinding cloud of LiveZerg. But keep spouting non sense.

Thanks for citing one instance where it worked. It's definitely not reliable in the long game, stop kidding yourself. Goodnight.


Because you have thousand of exemple where the T reach 20 ravens and straight out win, at top level gsl, right ?


ForGG vs LiveZerg was not GSL level either.


Because mech is just bad in general vs mech and these situations almost never happen. Appart from Flash, we don't see much mech players nowadays. Forgg does it sometime. Happy too.


mech is bad in general vs mech? Do you mean Zerg?

Supernova vs TRUE (Who is currently ro8) Code A.

I'll be honest, I have no idea how you do it. I can't watch and LR except for the most basic of games. I either get excited and forget to write anything, or I try and type and then start to lose track of the game and it all falls apart.

Against an army like flash's roach hydra viper will never come close to effective enough. The game has become balanced along the idea that SH is the "mech counter" while that raven based death ball is the "sh counter". Its kind of like vortex vs blord infestor. It was balanced just around a silly concept


You can get Hive much earlier with roach hydra, forcing tank and then just blinding cloud and win.


There is this unit called the viking that stops the blinding clouds. And even if they get close enough, there was this player named gumiho who actually beat it anyway with precise position on his tanks so that you needed at least 8 blinding blouds to stop his 8 tanks.


Yeah like Forgg who had what, 10 tanks spread out, but since you have to spread them so much, half of them just don't hit right ?
Stop saying mech is imbalance in TvZ please, if it was the case, terran would'nt have been buffed recently. And we would have much more game with mech in TvZ.

Im not saying mech is imbalanced. Im saying Roach/hydra/viper isnt viable against a top level Korean Terran at this current phase.

You missed the entire air army of Flash getting decimated and then him making a huge comeback. Otherwise, nah not really

Soulkey vs. Reality from the Proleague playoffs - went 2 hours before Reality forced the refs to call a draw and regame by turtling in his main and dropping a dozen scans on top of each other a couple times in a row.
The world is better when every background has a chance.
