I was LOLing a few times during this. The takeway from that video is even more respect for Flash... that guy is wired differently. He simply sees it as a new challenge. As if an alien species is invading earth, and it's up to him to find a solution. And not like it's a piece of trash, hacking a 20 year old game which is now played on uneven terms.
Flash is like some superhero (with superintegrity too).. i feel like I'm becoming a better human just by watching him fight with all his power against this guy. And how does he still have that curiousity about the game after so long... Seriously feels like watching beasts like MJ, Maradona or someone similar in their prime. Only Flash is probably even a higher quality human.

His zerg enemy was so lazy that he could have won with doom recalls to destroy all of the hatcheries, thus ending production. At that point he would surely just have come up with some disconnect hack, however.

Killing units doesn’t do anything to infinite money, they make new ones and they’re back where they were before. You can’t take units out of the game by killing them. Stasis is how you take units out of the game. Mass arb and get > 4 supply of units in each stasis. Follow with a mass reaver recall to kill tech/production facilities to attack their ability to replace units. Fighting the units themselves doesn’t do anything.
First of all it seems like the hacker had total controll, including map vision, Flash was exposed to the good will of the hacker... Than he is zerg and doesnt need drones, so this means he can have even more than Flash, since Flash needs to mine... Otherwise it would be a all in by Flash... Interestingly the hacker has defeats and disconnects aswell as 4160 apm
Shitty hack, i was already really thinking... Don't kill all those queens man, they are just wasted supply for z vs an all air army... Although I guess eventually they would've all died to cannons or followed the army around, it would give him a window to do dmg at the moment they died instead of killing them near his own base and allowing the Z to rebuild.
If he could've killed them near his base, maybe he could've eliminated some of the hatcheries... I also really felt that early zealot attack was a good chance as it seemed Z didn't have much production capacity yet there. Was initially still thinking maybe if he can't get out of his main he's too space limited, but I guess there was still plenty of room for hatcheries there
Anyway lots of good advice here on how to deal with this, stasis and maelstrom would've both been great.
I think it was pretty fun to watch actually, and it shows how much Flash cares about the game. What an amazing player mentality he has. But I think it might be a bad idea to stream these things. Hackers should just be reported and banned, not given publicity.
