So I probably won't prepare too much for that match and just look straight on to Ret and prepare decently for him. is that a g5 quote? :o. Anyway i dont think he meant it in a bad way, since flaf plays z anyway by 'preparing' for ret he was still preparing for pvz? | ||

"I still don't know much about FlaF. I have been told a few things from friends about him but nothing worth noting. He qualified for TSL so he obviously isn't someone you can take lightly, and I won't. My PvZ right now is the best it has ever been. I have been fortunate for many years that I have so many friends who are some of the fiercest players outside of Korea. I will definitively be calling on them for advice / practice in the upcoming days / weeks to prepare for my matches vs FlaF and possibly Ret." And his finishing words in the very same interview: "I will be bringing my A-GAME every match I play throughout this tournament. If I lose it won't be because I was unprepared" So stop talking about how he underestimated him, was allegedly arrogant etc. G5 is "clean", so to speak. | ||

It gave him a lot more mobility and it would have easily won him the game if he recognized his timing window where there was zero detection in the upper left (or used shuttles with some of those dts on the main). And even failing that, it would have set him up for a late game with reavers rather nicely (if he got them earlier...). what good are 12(?) dts for when u want to attack a base? 1 spore at each base is enough to prevent drone harass, even if u kill every lord on the map. instead of going rvr like he did later at his expo at 3. this mass dt style is something i only saw from mana until today (on colo against some romanian z, maybe that was flaf too t.t). i mean, it's not like it was some fancy dweb into hatchery snipe style.. imo there is no other explanation but arrogance/cockiness. | ||

maybe I'm wrong with saying he played arrogant, but I dont think so. the off cans at the third f.e., i dont know if he would try that in a game against mondragon/ret.. and, although i might be mistaken here: I didn't see a shuttle. So his plan was not to drop the dt's to kill some tech/harass drones, it looked like he wanted to kill the ultra/hyd/defiler army with dt/sair alone. but yeah, maybe I'm wrong. Would like to know what G5 has to say to this €: the plague on the dts was such a nice counter. i assume that's why flaf went for ensnare in the first place, make the dt visible. | ||

 Perhaps DT/Sair is easier to manage mixing reaver in the army, and it is pretty good if you stay defensive -specially to intercept drops- I am not sure if it was the best move for G5, but definitely one possible counter to mass ultra/ling is sair/dt. | ||
