Geez. DRG did not go "Foreign Style ZvT" (apparently meant for his production of Swarm Hosts) Flash had one point majority of his army consisting of Thors and Hellbats, which made DRG believe Flash was switching to mech. That is why he produced Swarm Hosts. That was a misread by DRG, not him trying out a different style. (Nothing wrong with trying out different strats or Swarm Hosts, I just think that observation is wrong.)

If you watch the game you can see that he produced 12 Swarm Hosts in the mid game and never reproduced them again. He simply kept them alive for a long time.

Edit: I am talking about the game 1.


I'm not certain. We look at the way Flash has played TvZ in the last 2 weeks and we see mass bio with thor hellbat. Would DRG really think it was mech at that point despite having done enough scouting to know flash opens reaper first without scouting into cc on Merry Go Round? And doing multiple run-bys into Flash's natural and see bio units?

I don't think so. On top of that DRG is in contact with Catz as far as I know and does have a lot of respect for foreign players so he could have easily decided to pick this up and try it in g1.


Yeah I agree. That was just a standard game from FlaSh and i'm sure DRG knew it, he was just attempting the Snute style SH transition for whatever reason.

Mech seems to have pretty much died off again. Unless you're Bbyong trying it vs P.


I am fairly certain this was what had triggered SHs from DRG. Flash also had a foward factory producing Thors. There have been several games that Terran tech-switching Bio to Mech and vice versa in Proleague.

I am happy for soOjwa (srsly so fucking good) and DongRaeGu finally starting to get back to the top! (Makes me sad he doesnt want to play in PL anymore ) but dammit Flash this was THE group to do it and you still fell short
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

drg isn't good at tvz guys.

Remember round 2 of proleague where he shit on terran as well? That was pretty cool imo

I fondly remember that day, DRG crushed Gumiho 2-0 as well but those games vs Inno were beautiful

Fun fact: Both Flash in this season and Clide in that season only played 1 matchup their whole way through.

Every time Flash makes it into the round of 16 I'm like yes, this will be the season, and subscribe. Then he gets knocked out and I feel like I've wasted $20. And all because there was one small gap in his buildings...

You've gotta be kidding me. DRG is a terrible fiddler. He was the one getting played. Lost 4 overlords early, had his creep spread completely shut down and just got lucky that Flash misplaced his CC by a hex and won off that advantage (despite shit play vs mines).

If by "played Flash like a fiddle" you mean "was getting completely wrecked and was extremely lucky that Flash made such a huge mistake," then sure.

Same there :/
Hopefully Cure or Bogus ends up in finals, or even semis.

I want drg to beat innovation, but I think innovation vs soo is the best possible finals we can have. Such a conundrum.

This is probably just a sad attempt to troll, but just in case, you are actually serious.
DRG has a winning record vs Innovation (who is in the ro8). DRG eliminated Solar from RBBG Global. Solar is also in the GSL ro8. DRG just knocked out last seasons semi-finlaist TRUE and IEM champion Flash.

If you seriously think, DRG is a Dishwasher, you are incredibly uneducated about the game.

DRG one of the absolute best at Starcraft in history, up there with old 3 of wings Polt Taeja MMA Life Stephano

Don't tell me, I am a supporter of the one true dong. I was just preventing dumb "everything more than 4 months old doesn't count" arguemnts by using recent results.

I think an OSL finals rematch would be pretty nice as well. Not only would it give DRG a chance of revenge, but it also severely improves Rains chances to go to Blizzcon.

Both of these are exaggerations. I think DRG either noticed the bad sim at the last minute, or was just waiting to do a standard run-by.

On the flip side, I wouldn't say DRG was getting wrecked at all. Flash reduced the creep and got some overlords off the back of a more aggressive opening, but he really wasn't putting a dent in DRG. His 3rd orbital was just morphing while DRG had a saturated 3rd, was way ahead on 1/1, had a spire and bane nest morphing, and retained 4 additional queens for defense and creep. I'd say DRG was ahead even. In addition, he lost all the hellions and even the medivac full of marines while DRG was doing a counter attack with all of his lings for a mere 11 drones or so.

Yeah DRG was perfectly fine in game 2. That kind of harass is nice and all, but is far from game ending. Happens very regularly in early game TvZ.
