For anyone that loves mech please watch the Flash v Curious series.

Best series since herO/Snute ;D


I went through the LR comments and it blew my mind. I was expecting sc2 orgasms left and right and yet it was a bunch of complaining? How can you call yourself a self-respecting Sc2 fan - nay! a human - if you didn't love turtle mech!

.... alright... maybe I'm slightly exaggerating.

I mean, if it was Guilty doing this against Curious the thread would explode with pleasure and excitement.

Holy crap did you guys see the players that have advanced so far? ro16 is going to be so sick

+ there's still potentially Sleep, Fanta, Parting, Dark, soO and Gumi! Bonafide season.

Fanta advancing would be insane and his group is not the strongest tbh. From all the zergs at least two of soO/Dark/Byul/Rogue should make it. We are gonna have such a sick ro16...

Man, Flash looked devastated after his loss vs innovation. It's so sad to watch him lose in mech vs mech games.

Balance aside, this mech style is just boring to see so often.

I think it's boring because of the balance. It's boring because at some point it's clear the zerg has no chance to win but even after this point it takes a long time to get to the end.

Maybe it is not unbeatable. It is Flash that make it look unstoppable?

And ofc the Flash haters gonna degrade his play ... who cares. Flash made it through ^^


Because it's the same thing all the time, Flash for all his love has two strategies

vZ: Turtle Mech
vP: YOLOPullDaBoyz


thing is, I'm sure Flash knows other strategies, he just feels like like these are the safest ones to use. against zerg he is always looking for that ultimate unbeatable late game composition. that's just the way he plays the game. and at the moment I agree, turtle mech style is the safest way to play against zerg. scv pull timings against P on the other hand...

his stubbornness worked for him and not against him in this group, although it makes him a bit of a one dimensional player. I think that's his main weakness. he is looking for the ultimate strategy, but one of the best strategies in SC2 is actually to be unpredictable. i hope he learns this soon, because I love watching his macro game unfold but I just don't see him getting through the ro16 with this kind of predictable play.

I agree with most you said but I think this time Flash kinda adabted. After his loss vs Pigbaby he scouted like crazy and counter Pig's cheese. The games against Curious he could have changed to bio in the 3rd game but he was confident in his mech and this time he didn't overcomit with his vikings. So, imo he wasnt stubborn as usual in this series

Haha this image is spot on... as long as the Flash train keeps rolling everything is fine. But on a second look it seems like the Flash wagon is gonna be derailed lol

He put up a good fight. He had several times the position to close it out in game 1 as well as in game 2. Sometimes even 50 supply ahead. At least it was close, so noone could say Inno trashed him.
All his games were entertaining, I liked this group the best so far. It was this group that made me pay 1 month of GSL, maybe another if there are still some entertaining terrans/zergs left. After 2014, I really don't care about toss anymore
