Would I recommend it to friends who enjoy strategy? Absolutely. It was a brilliant play. Similarly, I would recommend the Flash vs Jaedong game where Flash rolled over JD with 5 marines, a medic, and a firebat, because he hit a specific timing exploiting JD's greed. On the other hand, I wouldn't recommend the Flash vs Best game where Flash 7raxed into bunker rushing, because that was basically luck that Best's probe walked right past the forward rax. The majority of the people who voted on the poll were probably simply Bisu anti-fans, but personally I recommended it because it was a unique build which exploited the current metagame. | ||

Some things get lost in translation.. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=313329¤tpage=14 [04:21] <@nalho> A - but 95% it would work if it wasnt scouted He waited until he had 3 marines before he attacked so if it was scouted earlier, Best would have had some time to prepare. Furthermore, Best had his buildings clumped (which is stated in the interview too) so we may have seen a different game if the buildings were spread out a lil more and range finished. But having said that, I don't know how useful it would have been for Best to scout the mid barracks at the point he sent his probe (which was at a point where his cybernetics was almost finished and Flash was making his 3rd marine). | ||

He may have adapted the build for speedlings after observing the wall-in and lack of second cannon, but it seems clear SK always had aggression/all-in/cheese in mind by putting down that expansion towards the toss base. | ||

He may have adapted the build for speedlings after observing the wall-in and lack of second cannon, but it seems clear SK always had aggression/all-in/cheese in mind by putting down that expansion towards the toss base. Indeed it was. His overlord had yet to reach Bisu's natural before he planted down the 3rd hatch. On the other hand, SK would probably still have gone for the ling attack, even if Bisu had built the in line pylon, as it takes 2 zealots to block the choke off, and Bisu only had 1 with no probe support. So the pylon was actually somewhat of a non-factor. Bisu was fooled into thinking SK was going for a macro game instead of an aggressive early attack and didn't think he'd need to immediately block the choke off with probes or build extra cannons. Still, it makes one wonder, why on earth would you even come out on a map like Ground Zero if you don't know how to make the standard FFE wall for it? :| | ||

Man Flash is just too smart...He rarely plays a macro game vs Stork and Best,he usually goes for some early aggression/cheese and wins outright or gets nice advantage... At the moment Fantasy seems like the only person who can beat him. | ||
