Competitive StarCraft: Brood War happening in 10-ish mins; it's the final day of quarterfinals of Afreeca Starleague (ASL) Season 21!Anyways...FLASH (T) VS SNOW (P)>FLASH (T) VS SNOW (P)FLASH (T) VS SNOW (P)>FLASH (T) VS SNOW (P)FLASH (T) VS SNOW (P)>FLASH (T) VS SNOW (P)FLASH (T) VS SNOW (P)>FLASH (T) VS SNOW (P)FLASH (T) VS SNOW (P)>FLASH (T) VS SNOW (P)Korean livestream: https://play.sooplive.com/afstar1English livestream: https://play.sooplive.com/dth03119Liquipedia page:https://liquipedia.net/starcraft/ASL/21
Well /v/, will it be a 3-0 wash or a fiercely & closely fought 3-2?
As a protoss player I cannot wait for snow get 0-3'd again. :)
>>738243053I said yesterday that I think it'll be 1-3 in Flash's favour and I'm sticking with that. My hopes are that Snow puts up a good fight, we see 20+ minute games and it goes to 5 with Snow eventually winning, but I don't think that's how it's going to go.
LETS FUCKING GO
>accidentally woke up early for thisnow thread will hit bump limit. you're welcomealso what the fuck was dong doing yesterdayyou cant always just fight like a young man holding nothing backvictory defeated JDhe thinks dark swarm is his ally?i wonder what will break first, his body or his spirithis punishment must be more severe
which angle is it?
Praying snow pulls through just so we can dodge flash vs light TvT
>>738243369Flash is weakened so it's not going to be a 3-0 unless Snow fucks up to an unimaginable degree
When are they bringing day9 to cast? tired of hearing fagtosis act like hes better than tasteless. he needs to be humbled by a real CC. also tired of tasteless going>ummm... yeaeverytime after tosis speaks
cant watch todaysomeone cheer extra hard for flash for mehe's going to need it
Flash will choke and be stubborn about some shitty build order that won't work
Snow should go double gate in the middle of the map
>>738243421>best of seven TvTI kind of want Flash to win now
Snow needs to take revenge for Jaedong's sake! End the Terran menace! GO SNOW!
Lets go Flash!!
Snow will win 3:1
Snow: top tier PvT Bantu ape. The real deal.Flash: washed Terranny who was eliminated by three Zerg Chads in his last three ASL runs.Hmmmmmm...
There are people in here who's actually not rooting for flash
snow is the ultimate choker. ill still cheer for him but realistically flash is taking this
>>738243609He died to Jaedong in the ro16 too
>>738243104I fucking hate protoss, but my heart is 100% with Snow today. Get Flash the hell out of here.
>>738243671Flash is washed but that was a BO1 meme game
flash lose to snow who will lose to lightonly big brains understand light is the new #1
>>738243421>we can dodge flash vs light TvTFlash vs Light is the only TvT that I'd watch a best of 7 of. Two of the best TvTers against each other? Fucking amazing. Yes please.
SHOULDER STATUS: DELICIOUS
>>738243737There's no way Snow would lose to Light. That's Snow's best matchup into Light's worst by far matchup.
>>738243737Light is way too predictable for the top zergs. Jaedong played weirdly yesterday
Flash can only lose to nexus first - 2 base carries
>>738243492I'll cheer on Flash for you, Akanesasubro.
Hoping for snow victory. Hope he does a 2 gate rush to destroy flash's 14CC.Really unsure who will win this though. Flash is so much better than any other terran that he may not leave a real chink the armor.
I'll root for the one who didnt betray their fans with a crypto scam
RAPE THE WALLFILL THE WHOREFUCK LIKE NEVER BEFORENO RETREATNO CONTROLWE ARE SEMEN IN THE HOLERAPE THE WALL
Best PvTer VS best TvPer. This is gonna be fun
>>738243449>day9>brood warwhat decade are you from
flash 3-1 snowsnow wins first game, then the betting mafia takes him backstage and threatens to break his kneecaps unless he jobs the remaining matches
>>738243827>trusted a fucking esports dude with his money>loses it>now shits on him every threadglad this is not me
They said in the Korean stream that Flash is on a 30-match TvP winning streak. Snow expects to break that today.Flash thinks it'll be 3-1 his waySnow thinks it'll be 3-2 his way.
>>738243815i smuckled (smile chuckled) at this image
>snow's theme song is ButterflyI'm thinking he might be based
Holy fuck that win rate
>>738243918I didn't it, but thousands of his fans did. He was trustworthy because he used to give lots of good advice regarding stocks, it wasnt just some random clueless eceleb shilling something shitty.And then when he was called out he just made pathetic half assed excuses blaming his mother and shit.Cope all you want but he's fucking scum.
Look at those fucking stats holy fug
>>738244067>I didn't ityou clearly did it
>A different version of the digimon theme again.Based snow
>>738244014>They said in the Korean stream that Flash is on a 30-match TvP winning streakI'M AFRAID IT'S A COLD SEASON. SNOW LOSES 0 GAMES. TOTAL SNOW VICTORY. THEN HE FACES SOMA IN THE FINALS. SNOW < SOMA. ZERG WINS ANOTHER ASL. But I won't be mad if Flash wins so it's Flash vs Soma honestly. Flash will lose vs Soma thoughbeit
>>738244067Only protoss players fell for this.
:D
:)
>>738244097>I dont care unless it happens to melol
>9raxwhat did flash mean by this?
>terran already being dishonest
not CC first
just tuned in and huh?no gas steal? it's a 2 player map!
>snow techtrooning alreadyBro just make dragoons and smash.
I better see reavers every single game
Flash.. you need to save some apm for the finals
How good is flash now?
relatively calm first gameso far
>>738244280I'd say he was playing at about 70% his usual rate in his previous games. He won, but not as convincingly as I'm used to seeing from him.
That slow ass reaction towards the shuttle in his base. Sheesh he really is old. Imagine if there was a reaver in there would have been gg
>>738244269ugh... my wrist
I fucking love reavers bros
2 BUSTED SCARABS
There are too many tanks for 2 reavers to stop
Ape status: casual gorilla (not silverback).
That's a lot of tanks
No vulture speed, no mines, no turrets, just mass tanks
MMMMMMMMM SCBS
Even snow's magic reavers can only do this much... its over
>I will drop reaver in shitty position despite years of experience knowing that scarabs tend to miss or get stuck behind minerals??? Just fucking drop it right on top of workers retard
immaculate simcity
HOLY SHIT THAT MULTITASKINGHOW DID SNOW SURVIVE THAT PUSH
holy kino
uh oh flash in trouble
Did they show if snow got reaver damage yet? Such an underrated upgrade
Ape status: silverback.
>>738244430Where's your showmanship? Watching scarabs fail to do shit half the time is the most entertaining part of reaver play
JEEJEEEEEEEE :D
>insert [terrany] rant
what a scrappy gameSnow almost fell to that pushlove it
TOTAL TERRANNY DEATH!
I can't wait for snow to go through flash and light in a historic streak just to get rekt by zerg in the grand final again.
>>738244515>>738244531KEK
So many dud scarabs, didn't matter.
>>738244430>anon trying to school the absolute king of reaver playlol
legends always die
>>738244269Last ASL... he's desperate to win. He knows if he loses his final ASL that's all everyone will remember. Flash never beat Effort too. A lot of chinks in his armor if Snow beats him here
REAVERED
Fuck protoss i swear they are only race that can ape attack and throw away their entire army units to remake fast enough to fight against a counter timing push.
>snow completely mops the floor with this washed up boomer game oneAlright time for the mafia to give him a stern talking to and for snow to job the remaining games, gotta keep those betting sites profitable after all
>>738244559larva is unlimited
>>738244515toss can just a move to win, very poor balancing from Blizzard
>>738244532That Zerg is Soma though, and it's far from a given that Leta won't win his games
>>738244532The Ape (Tosser) beats the Trash Can (Terranny) and the Dragon (Zerg Chad) beats the Ape.
flashsisters...
>>738244590>That Zerg is Soma thoughyou mean the person snow lost to in the finals of the previous ASL>it's far from a given that Leta won't win his gamesoh its a bait post, funny
>>738244591And terrans slay dragons got it
>>738244590>soma dying to tier 4 scrubs 2 port wraith shitlol
>>738244572Larva management makes Zerg the hardest to play, no room for fuck ups.
>>738243449ummm... yea
>larva management>uhh... should I make drones or lings>uhh... should I make drones or hydras>uhh... should I make hydras or mutaswow so hard
>>738244692>chooses wrong once>fucking dies
ZergGODS, remember that
>>738244646Actually, no.
zurg?
>>738244692Lings could eat your entire larva production so yes there are nuance to zerg's hatchery production
Zerg basically starts the match with 3 command centers / gateways / factories / stargates
>>738244757Starcraft is a rare sci-fi setting that doesn't have ion cannons
>>738244750Who beat saviour and mind fuck him so bad he had to match fix to cope? Who stopped julyzerg reining terror? Who 3-0 jaedong from taking his first OSL? Sure is shit wasnt protoss players
>>738244828you must have never played the terran campaign
>>738244828?
>>738244828>t. sc2 zoomer
flash? more like trash
>>738244862Thats just a repurposed observeratory larping as a gatling gun.
>>738244856>>738244862Oops
Nexus first gg :l
does flash have balls to CC first while 0-1?
>>738244828
The great thing about Tossers is they don't have to fear early marine faggotry since their buildings are so buff.
Command & Conquer has proven to me that ALL scifi should have Ion Cannons. It's the coolest shit and if you disagree, you SUCK!
DISASTER
????????????????????????????
That marina ain't no hiding coward
oof
AAAAAAACKKKK
TERRAN DISHONOR
LETS FUCKING GO FLASH BEAT THAT DISHONEST TOSS
what the fug :DDDD
>snow conveniently forgetting how to play vs a bunker rush halfway throughHe was doing well for the first minute until....no...no way this would be intentional!
why did snow just let that nexus die? he had like 3-4 goons, or am I just stupid?
absolutely smoked LMAO
>HAHAHAHA ARTOSISUUU
Is he just gonna gg after the first seige tank volley?
>>7382450901 goon for 1 scv repairing
nice, time to get into a long macro game after that start
>>738245090He would have loss his counter play units and his nexus still
>>738245113Ahhhhhhh right I honestly forgot about that math, you're 100% right
>>738245090He needed dragoon range.
>kill Nexus first with bunker rush>Toss just double expands anyway to catch back upNoooo fucking way this works right? Flash is powering up too much for this to work right?
snow has incredible goon microi was expecting more to die from that attempted poke
>>738245172It's called 'taking risks'
maek tank
anons forgetting that a punished nexus first is still more or less even
Surprise snow of all players didnt go for a reaver recover. He is going to lose to a timing push
>>738245172>Noooo fucking way this works right?it'll only work if flash forgets to push within the next 5 minutes
>>738245172I think Snow's fugged, but Flash cut a lot to get that bunker up. Snow killed a lot of his shit delaying it.
>>738245172toss are generally around even if they lose the nexus
>snow forgets to maek>floats 1k minerals>loses????????
ggwell done from flash
Flash had to cheese to win, got lucky
*unzips*
gg
nexus first PUNISHED
wtf snow donkbased snow going the long game to tire flash's wrists
>>738245258>Nexus first>not cheeseFound the toss
>>738245258That was a punish, not cheese. The difference is that the barracks was in his base this time.
Shan't be watching Flash vs Light
>>738245258how is a bunker rush to punish close nexus first a cheese lmao
terran as a race is a cheese>hurrr i got a chonky splashy boi outside your base so i win!!!
Flash should rush my asshole 2bh
>>738244143Would gamers get in trouble for banging groupies?
Snow didn't need to quit there. Strategic decision to not let the Terranny get hyped up? Ape status: pensive gorilla.
>>738245370lurker is chonky splashy boireaver is chonky splashy boitank is chonky splashy boiwe're ALL chonky splashy bois
>>738245408Get to working on release match 3 artosis
>>738245451Hes married and a father so yes
>>738245456lurker needs the wigglerreaver needs the shuttletank just goes splashy splash and wins
>>738245370bro your shuttle?
>>738245348Because it should be easy to beat a bunker rush therefore it's cheese. Snow messed up what should have been an easy victory and then he would have been 2-0.
at least no one's swept
>>738245506i will bang them in his place. all while thinking of him.
>>738245513Lurker can hold attack and has dark swarm bullshitReaver essentially shoot a splash shot instantly out of shuttleTank takes 3 seconds to siege...
>Jane Doe gimme the stats, between T and P which is favoured on this meme map?
>what is nexus firstnice bait though
snow? more like throw
reebo :D
>>738245506Damn, i hope she look as good as the groupies then

Scouts???
CARRIER
FLEET BEACON
erm Flash you need to maek units to defend your base
>carrieroh yeah sonwe in for some fukken KINO
CHEESE
Flying beehives incoming.
Carriers! Ape status: chimpanzee at war.
>2 gate carrier on 2 basesthis is completely untenable isn't it
That fucking pylon lmfao
KEEEEEEEEEEEEK
kek
>2 base carrier
>playing greedy vs carriersuuhhh
kekdouble pylons
Oh lame
will flash just gg when he sees the carriers?
LMAO 2GATE
>>738245763it can catch the terran off guard if terran does not scan
4 nexus xD
Snow already lost this one didnt herunning purely on hopium he wont get scanned
>it's another snow hides 1 base while going carriershe did this before...
>Carriers take 140 seconds to buildwtf
BEW BEW :DDDDDDD
Snow showed a little early there
Oh this might be over
MAEK goliath
>run the carriers to the golithsBIG BRAIN
It's over
stick to reavers buddy
>>738243894the prophecy comes true
>>738245836i said it, just fucking go reavers snow come on man what the fuck is wrong.u can kill any terran on earth with your reaver play
stick to reavers lil bro
geegeeeeeee
if snow wasnt so greedy he could have won. literally 2 or 3 more carriers instead of making that hidden base and he wins
ggsnow looked like he had a chance for a moment there but flash's push was just relentless
I have to say that was not a good game from Snow.
Snow thought he was playing against artosis going for that early 2 carrier attack timing or something. What was he smoking? If he waited for 5-6 carries before showing he would have easily won.
Snow showed them a bit too early
>>738246103All he had to do was not show the carriers for another 1-2 minutesHe wasted his surprise to kill a single tank, if he held off until he had 4 carriers he could have sniped the CC and coasted to a free winOf course this happens because RIGGED
>>738246110I'm going to be mad that he didn't wait for 4 carriers the entire rest of the night. He showed his shit with too few to accomplish anything, and Flash switched into full Goliath in response.
>>738246118there's no "early 2 carrier timing" wtf is snow thinkin
how come they never go arbiter
>>738246068Not against terran god he can't
>>738245531(you)
>>738246170It's extremely expensive to tech into
i think snow felt pressured to attack when he did to kill tanks and possibly disrupt the 3rd base econ enough to snowball from there when the rest of the carriers arrived. not a good plan either way
>>738246226but they used to do it all the time
>i hope the best TvP on the planet doesnt scout for hidden bases while im greeding 2 base carrierswtf is snow smoking
>>738246257It's not a good plan because getting to carriers is a massive investment and even if he had 0 goliaths, 2 carriers don't do damage that fast and that gives you plenty of time to shit out a bunch of goliaths - you have the factories anyway for tanks.Snow obviously knows that. Shit feels unironically rigged.
>>7382461702base arbiter only worked before BeSt ran it into the ground and every terranny learned how to play against it
>>738246305No point unless they went dt first
Is Starcraft actually fun to play as a singleplayer experience or is it only fun as a PVP game?
>Flash 94 wins as T 3 wins as P and 3 wins as Zcan any other player boast that lmao
>>738246356>Is Starcraft actually fun to play as a singleplayerYes
>>738246356I replayed the SC+BW campaign last year, it was still fun
>>738246356The campaign is more fun than competitiveAnd then you can try to play some UMS (use map settings) custom games on bnet, I don't know how active the scenes are for some of them but last time I played there were still nightly games of Helms Deep, Heavens Last Stand, turret D games, poker D, RPG games, spec ops, custom hero wars, etc
>>738246356its no warcraft 3 but its pretty fun
>>738246356yes
>>738246360He played as random for those p and z wins, so the opponent didn't know what they were up against.
>>738246381>>738246391>>738246417Alright. So I'm guessing the original is still the way to go? Or is the remaster good?
>>738246356You could definitely still play through sc1/bw and sc2 singleplayer and have fun.
>>738246448so?
>>738246460The remaster is...mostly fine. The audio is unchanged, the visuals are okay. Some of the unit portraits are worse than vanilla (they went with the SC2 aesthetic on some), but you can swap between the two settings with a single button press. The higher resolution makes it a lot nicer to play in <current year>.
>>738246460The remaster is good. The one time Blizzard got it right.
how the fuck's snow's nexus still late than the cc lmao
>>738246460If you're watching the game right now, you're looking at the remaster.
>>738246460The original is fine and easy to pirate. I downloaded it from the internet archive and googled a cd key.
>>738246589Isn't the original completely freeware now and blizzard only charges you for the remastered edition?
>>738246634No idea, lost access to my bnet account
>>738246634yes
its over
>hmm today I will sacrifice my entire army into the sieged tank line>againTell me this shit isn't rigged, I fucking beg of you
Its so sus watching flash units getting ready to focus fire the shuttle the moment snow is just outside the base with it. How can he do that blindly?
That was such a good arc too. But of course Flash smashes it anyway
>>738246661owari do
so...snow pvt is fraud...?
>bet against the king
Heroic flank, is it happening?
MMMMMM BULCHERS
Gatewayman
idk who the fuck will win this
>snow somehow still on 0/0boy
snow is so good at stopping that first terran tank push
>play standard reaver>winis snow stupid or what he could've won by now
>not walling off your expansionASKING to get VULTURE'D
when it's a normal game snow is just better
gatewayman marches on
Snow is 50 supply ahead, retards.
does snow even know about flash's third?
>make reaber>winwow

>be the best shuttle-reaver player in the world>hmmm I will go 2 base carrier cointoss build
>>738246460avoid the remaster for the campaign. disgusting portraits, disgusting starcraft 2 art drawings during intermissions that complete clash with the tone and vibe of the game
snow smartly used exposed drobes as a distraction for vultures so tanks would be exposed
>>738246460play remaster it's the goat
Ape status: chimpanzee jumping on enemy's skull.
snow getting assaulted by the betting mafia in the toilet about now
>>738246895>he thought the ape thing was a joke
>>738247035I don't often entertain the thought of games being rigged. But that game looked fucking rigged.
>>738246923I mean, in isolation that statement is pretty meaningless. 150 supply terran is fine vs 200 supply protoss.They problem was more that flash was struggling to get to 80 supply or maintain a decent tank count.
>>738246460for all that is holy do not play the remaster the first time you play the campaign
this is a semifinal or finals tier matchban tulbo and leta
>>738247152Why did they do this
>>738247152what is this shit
>>738247152original also those panels too, but it's just green text on solid black background
>>738247191zero artistic integrity

>>738247152Never seen this before, holy cringe
>>738247231drink bleach
>>738247191>Why did they do thisBecause they genuinely think that the SC2-styled art is an upgrade over a black screen (it isn't).
how does snow know that vulture is about to come after his probes? sus as hell

>I just held off a huge push and need to stabilize>*builds a fleet beacon*
damn that was sick
>>738247828ape strongcarrier strong
Suffice to say those games were bad.
>>738247812>>738247815>>738247828>>738247856im starting to agreeyou know flash's style is constant aggression with big tank pusheswhen has flash ever just turtled and greeded I've never seen a game like that from him
This was rigged. Who the fuck goes CARRIERS when you've already won the game?
How do I even follow this shit? I haven't played RTS games in ages but still like to watch tournaments sometimes. I can watch SC2 and AoE2 and understand what's going on but this looks like madness to me
the fact that leta is a seeded player over the likes of snow and jaedong LOL
That was crazy backfourth for like 8 straight minutes. Good ending
>>738247828I think he was doomed no matter what. Having his third delayed for that long meant he had to make a gamble to catch up.
>>738247886Tonight was the worst set of 5 games I've seen in a long time. Holy fuck I should have just played vidya.
GG!!!FUCKING GOOD GAME, BOTH PLAYERS ARE GREAT!!!
FUCK GAYRRIERS
I hate the result but those were some good fucking games
>>738247915this ro8 has been terrible compared to the ro16the further in to each season we get, the more the play degrades and it turns into shitty mismatches and rigged games
>Carrier has arri–ACK
>>738247896just type asl/bsl in googleor just watch korean vods of proleagues
Soma has it 100% now.
3 terrans 1 zerg 0 protossYup we're so back
>>738247896watch morethe matchups are pretty easy to understand since the metas are pretty set in stone nowtastosis commentary is also decently friendly for noobs to understand
snow knew he was behind, still a bad play to try carriers as if flash wouldnt just rebuild and attack again
>>738247972as if he didnt had snow gone through
>>738247896>How do I even follow this shit?https://liquipedia.net/starcraft/ASL/21Just look up legendary players like Flash, Jaedong, Bisu and such. You'll find the biggest tournos. Might see the finished the results but it's still fun
>>738247896Watch for artosis and tasteless commentary on soop for all the nuance breakdowns on soop youtube
now i just wished JD won yesterday, would be kino to see another JD vs Flahs
>>738248026for me it's diggity and klazart

>>738248058Do we even need to play this match?
>>738247980>>738248020>>738248026alright thanks, seems like those casters are pretty good if two of you recommended them
>>738248058soma is less likely to fold to wraiths like JD didleta will still probably sneak a game with good 2port play but soma will adapt and I don't think leta's mechanics are good enough to carry him through
>>738248058i think zergs are weak against wraith builds right now as evidence by light vs jd but soma will have an answer, soma 3:1
>no games next weekLAME
>>738248052Jesus what are you 45 years old?

>>738248137
>>738248058I have unfounded optimism that Leta might take games. Soma's vs Terran and Leta's vs Zerg win rates only differ by 0.1%
>>738248058Wraith/10, but tbf Soma will win>>738248114Koreans can't into proper scheduling

>>738248017saaars
>>738248114>>738248207oh wait they changed the schedule? BASED
>>738248250I think he's trying to make a joke about the quality of games, as if Flash vs Light bo7 isn't going to be 2 hours of kino
>>738248058I could see leta winning a bo1 or even a bo3 against soma. He's an unpredictable player who can come up with some builds that throw his opponents off and give him wins out of nowhere.However, a bo7 will generally smooth out that variance and give the win to the better player and as much as I love leta I think that's soma.
>last week>all 3-0>this week>all 3-2what does it mean
>>738248189Drink some prune juice and go to bed.
>>738248284flash wins because he has to reach finals according to the rigging schedulethen flash will go down 0-3 only to make a REVERSE SWEEP COMEBACK OH MY GOD IT'S A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE
Good news is that Soma only has to train zvt all the way through meanwhile the others still have to split their focus between zvt and tvt
>>738248429>splitis that really a big of a deal? the schedule is quite comfy for matchprep
>>738248429It does mean that he will have to show some ZvT builds in the semis which will give the terran in the finals some ideas of what to expect.The only TvZ that Flash has played so far this season is the one game he threw against Jaedong.
>>738248429>>738248649he should 4 pool every game lmao
>>738248759>everyone settles in for potentially a few hours of TvZ>Soma 4-pools every game>the entire bo7 takes half an hour, including ad breaksThe organizers would be so pissed along with everyone who attended in person
>>738247890>when has flash ever just turtled and greeded I've never seen a game like that from himthat doesn't really work for terran
Yesterday I finished doing the Terran campaign on the Brood War side for a nostalgia run and I’m now reminded, why does the Goliath’s AI act so weirdly? It feels like they have a gigantic enemy detection range compared to most other units, they’re aggro as hell and will chase something across the whole map if they can, and if they’re surrounded by a bunch of ground units like Zerglings/Zealots it seems like there’s a lot of times where they keep swiveling around (trying to retarget?) which only seems to slow down their ground attack indirectly
>>738248294>He's an unpredictable player who can come up with some builds that throw his opponents off and give him wins out of nowhere.unpredictable??? leta will message his opponent before the game "im going 2port", then he will go 2port, then he will win
>>738247890>when has flash ever just turtled and greeded I've never seen a game like that from himHe did during his physical prime, he's had lots of come backs doing that during the kespa era.Also, FlaSh has been in the ro4 practically every single time he attended ASL, no? He lost outside Ro4 very few times once he's in the main stage.
>>738250291his first two losses were in the ro8
>>738249659>leta will message his opponent before the game "im going 2port", then he will go 2port, then he will winBased.

>>738243809thanks bro
Does FlaSh have a chance against Light?Honestly, FlaSh plays too fast against Light and that's what defeated him in the past TvT's he has fought. RoyaL and JYJ? I think outmaneuvered Light so many times.In a long game, it's a toss-up but FlaSh is known to play and have pioneered quick TvTs in the ASL era.
>Does FlaSh have a chance against Light?
>>738252349I'm serious man, Light beat JD who beat FlaSh and by mathematics property Light > Flash
>flash returns after military and arm-ending injury and surgery>into the ro4 first (last) asl backdidn't soma take like 2.5 years to even sniff asl again wtf
>>738252785Flash has been playing a lot outside of ASL in the meantime. It's not like he's coming back from a hiatus.
>>738252785>somano, he came back and won right away
>>738253000>also spawned a broodling along the wayhe's based.
I still think Snow is better than Flash in a standard game and would've won if he didn't go full retard in 2 games.In game 5 switching to carriers was fucking retarded too but he was so behind I don't that mattered.
>>738253180>in a standard gamehis carrier switches are the result of his bungling a standard game, snow is too used to delaying terran pushes with a reaver defense setup and slowly building his advantage from there.but flash is just too fast and relentless in his attacks that snow crumbles.it's like a reverse of what snow does against terrans, when normal terrans scramble their micro and bungle an attack because they don't know how to position and control their army against a reaver defense.meanwhile snow bungles his amazing reaver micro and control against flash because flash knows what to do and how to execute an attack that dismantles it.
>>738249382several reasons, they have insanely high detection/attack range against ground and even more against air with upgrade.they also have the fucked up hitbox like goons, but goons don't need to rotate to shoot, so they get less fucked then Goliaths
>>738249382Goliaths are weird because they act like a turret on legs, same as unsieged tanks. This quirk also makes it so ensnare doesn't affect their attack speed.
>>738252785flash has retired and come back something like five times now across his career, each time playing his last league everhe's mastered the art of rugpulling and emotional manipulation on his fans
>>738243032where's the big schnauzer mother fucker?
Bump
if snow won, we would have hit bump limitno one likes fl*sh
