i didnt catch game 3 of flash vs symbol. how did he win? Hail Mary doom drop with literally his entire army into Symbol's main. Given the huge weakness in mobility of roach/hydra, Symbol split his army across several bases to compensate. So Flash was able to get all of his army comfortably in Symbol's main and snipe everything. Symbol's fragmented leftover army from the other bases just trickled in and died since roach/hydra rapidly falls off in strength if you don't keep up the aggressive momentum. Also, Flash accumulated 12 medivacs since there's no mutas on the field.
Thank you, sir.
Very tactical wins for Flash today, rather than his usual macro-oriented roflstomp mode.

He kinda flexed his macro muscles in game 3 though.
He got hit with a roach bust basically, killed 28 of his SCVs but he had 3 CC, was at 28 SCVs then before you know it was back at 45 SCVs then was really turning out his units.

Vipers are almost useless against a pure bio answer. Symbol should have tried infests or killed Flash with a 2/2 timing or simply used a muta transition.

Yeah this is what I was thinking as well. stimmed bio moves out of blinding cloud so incredibly quick, and with no tanks you can keep the infestors alive while getting fungals down.

Not sure what was worst there.
Heading into double drop with 1 colli at front or not killing said Colli with double drop xD

hm, Hush is playing sloppy. Maybe he's too nervous
still smart though, he had the units exactly where he needed them. If only he hadn't taken as much damage on his both colossai earlier
