Hmmm…the problem with Flash is that he is too confident in his build. Not scouting, not getting scans… that’s why players like Best and Hero_V take advantage of Flash’s turtle strategy: they go for tech, and without scouting and scans, Flash often gets caught off guard. Like this game for example, he was carrier rushed, and against Hero_V he was defeated because of early arbiters..
The fact that this video was so long made me constantly think that Flash was going to make some ungodly comeback. Nice to see that he’s not completely invincible. >_>
damn u guys were great … diggity was particularly insightful…i agree … if he built a damn academy or at least scouted with a barrack early on before that 3rd cc went up, flash wouldve had the game with his better micro/macro skills … but u have to give it to best … u was the aggressor and it payed off
Even having caused his own doom, it took him like 10 minutes to die to overwhelming odds, and superior tactics. I still admire Flash :’D
But I also gotta give it to Best. He punked out what might be the best Terran playing SC in the world, and like Diggity said, did it with the thing that was supposed to never work. gg.
Flash didnt scout early because he was greedy. He wanted the SCV count to still mine resources and deal with probe harrassment on his buildings. He figured if he was able to get his 14 CC build down that he would have the macro to deal with whatever BeSt threw at him, and he was wrong :/
wow. after listening to all that aftermatch discussion. not beeing impressed?`that best did not really impress you with a comeback like flash has done?
Didnt you get really excited when flash came back/ got a free roll vs free?
seriously, give best some cred for the win 😛

Flash trying to make a statement by the “I don’t care what you’re doing, I’m still going to win” attitude. Didn’t this time.

Rock tried to go carriers vs Flash and blew the game.
This was last week.
