Did he see the Archives? It looked more like Flash just did too much damage early and sOs just couldn't get his build going, had to cut upgrades, blink and stalkers and just got owned.
He scanned it and saw the chrono on Psi Storm. Dropped ghost acad straight away and pushed.

Yes, he scanned it when it was being Chrono'd. Immediately threw down a Ghost Academy and moved his army to sOs' third.

Hahaha
What's so funny?
Flash winning that much
Flash only wins
All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again
Guys, yes it's an upset and that's why it's really a strong performance from flash and he deserves a lot of credit for this. It's not like he defeated some second class protoss....

that BO is not orthodox... blink into robo is the standard
Robo into blink, you mean?
No, you go blink for defense and threatening blinkall in then you go double forge colossus
that's not the most common BO..
blink is definitely standard
Yeah. I am just saying that the most typical BO is to open Robo observer then go into Blink/Colossus. The Blink pressure/all-in builds have fallen out of favour mostly
