IF Flash won both osl and msl, flash = the man IF Flash won first 1 as expected and jd wins 2nd 1, jd = the man But with this outcome = wtfux | ||

I was cheering for Jaedong but I would have been completely fine with Flash winning if there were really good games But it was a big let down Of course Flash played better, no doubt about it and of course he deserves the title. Just getting that out of the way. | ||

In game 2, did he build his first drone late contemplating a 4 pool? It looked like his 5th and 6th drones came out close together or I must be imagining? Flash played solid, he should have done that against effort | ||

Flash is terrible for not picking different builds. He knew these builds would give him easy wins over an under performing Jaedong and should have thought about the fans more. We need to be entertained. Flash is so bad. | ||

He's unfortunate to have an off-day in the finals but it happens to everyone. People who don't understand how variable a player's performance can be have never played BW properly. game 3's hydra bust plan was really dumb but i guess its true losing all your hydras attacking the wall over and over desperately trying to kill inconsequential bunkers is even dumber! | ||

Well hydra bust is hardly a build, it's more of a decision. By the 3rd game he really needed to swing the momentum so I don't blame him for trying it. Even if he dragged out a long game and won it, flash still had 2 lifelines. | ||

And I don't get it. What makes JD so good normally in BO5's is that he always have had the nerve to make 9pool with speed or 9 pool into fast mutas. This game he just played so standard. But probs to flash for being so ballsy. | ||

I agree. I thought it was so retarded to just keep wasting hydras like that. Obviously at first he had to try and do some damage or end up severely behind, but still. Killing that last bunker was completely pointless. | ||

Exactly again. Seemed like he didnt have a followup even though he have had 3 weeks of preparation. | ||

Hmm I thought it was good if he just kills supply supply rax in that order to free the choke and have Flash be supply blocked I'm pretty sure he runs him over instead of losing 8 hydras on a bunker killing nothing. | ||

Regardless, I don't think Flash was losing this series no matter what JD did. | ||

1) Pick off outer buildings 2) Focus down the bunker with everything 3) Focus bunker but use half your hydras to target SCVs He went for number 2, if it succeeds you will most likely win the game straight away, if it fails it should be over. That's just one of the standard trade-offs you encounter when cheesing. | ||
