The nice thing about that game was that there was a winner but neither player ended up looking bad (imo they both showed some brilliance in TvT, actually).

hah if you are an Inno fan it must be nice to watch the game knowing the result in advance, otherwise it's like 30min of suffering until he starts winning

Yes. But sadly it also showed what I've seen from Flash more times than I'd like: getting ahead but not being able to close it up afterwards.

edit: wrong thread lol

typical Flash loss man, his mechanics and gameplan puts him ahead and his opponent is like I am already behind so lets get super greedy or get away with stuff that i normally wouldnt do and since we are taking about sc2 and Flash being stubborn in it, it works more often than enough.

From what I remember Flash just lost because he didn't get enough map control. He had at least 2 CC's early on but didn't even morph them to OC's for several minutes, which probably was huge. Innovation had half the map and when Flash struck his base he still was mining a lot at the left half of the map. On the other hand every hit from Innovation was twice as bad for Flash.

He faced CJ players in GSL. Can't blame him.

No, not really, INnoVation at his peak might be the most mechanically gifted player SC2 has ever seen, but Flash was ahead for the majority of the game. Seems like someone updated INno's "Adaptation" subroutine which caused him to make good decisions for once.

And what's their excuse for losing to Curious? Not enough style?
