Being sick of Flash games is like being allergic to air :(

[@Kingdemonpigfromhell]

"are you sick of Flash games", like 3 minutes before this video dropped I was scrolling the channel for more games, but had already watched all of the latest Flash games so hell no I'm not sick of them

[@brad20111]

Same 😂😂

[@vigilanterorschach2600]

Yeah, man. I am sick of the greatest e-sports player of all time for sure, like what is that question by Arty? How ould anyone mildly interested in SC be sick of Flash games?

[@gyozanomics]

I know I'm almost as excited as if it was Jaedong and Stork

[@MrBaboon1212]

Jaedong is way better than flash ever was. Terran is easy newb race.

[@dhn1337]

Sick of these games? I've been hoping for these games for like the last 4-8 years. I don't even know how long it's been but it's felt so very long time.

[@charly.chavez]

We're sick for not having enough Flash games

[@phoenixlich]

Terran mech crushing Zerg is like a thirsty man in the desert finding an oasis!

[@eZeero]

You're goddamn right

[@HasteCakes]

Agree I love mech tvz

[@HasteCakes]

tesgai tho

[@robertonarheim5527]

Flash vs Jaedong is the reason to wake up in the morning!!

[@Bres92]

MORE FLASH NEVER STOP NEVER APOLOGIZE

[@remusspanu5225]

Flash came back to a completely changed meta. And said "Neah dude... I don't like to play this way. Let me change things up a bit. How about a goliath build vs zergs?"

[@no1xtz765]

That 3-vulture run by is just so op…killer instinct

[@ce8539]

Yea that was like a laser precision knife, totally neutered him

[@stardawggunrocks5152]

it feels like it would have been even stronger had the surprise valk not been picked off - kill the whole muta flock on the next dive-in since Jaedong is so focused on reducing goliath count, then send the vultures when there is no defense. Worked out anyways, but the sub-branches of this build's decision tree we got to see from this game was so interesting. It really looks like it forces zerg to be the aggressor, if they don't you're just letting Terran cement a massive upgrade advantage and they can strike out with vultures at the edges, and if they queen switch Terran gets an all but certain timing window that takes advantage of the upgrades. I don't even play SCBW so I'm just guessing, ArtosisCasts finna get me to install though.

[@qcdoomqc]

So far what im noticing about Flash is his game knowledge is absolutely flawless. He knows exactly when to setup defensively, when to push, when to sit for an economic advantage… like yeah you can tell he is trying stuff out and some of it doesn’t work but he seems like an absolute nightmare to play against… the type of player that always knows exactly where you’re at on economy and macro at any point of the game and always makes THE best move at any given time.

[@ObeliskM]

So he is Serral of Brood war.

[@lsdap1969]

well years of playing provided him with great game sense and his stunning use of comsats allows him to make all those spot on decisions is how i explain that to myself ;)

[@Hozzar]

He definitely doesn't mind making mistakes and testing out new tech.

[@skitidet4302]

@@ObeliskM More like stockfish.

[@theSato]

@@ObeliskM it's more like Serral is the Flash of SC2. Important distinction.

[@rockdrigo9326]

This channel can be Flash exclusive and I’d still watch tf out of it

[@SchemingGoldberg]

Channel renamed to FlashCasts, everybody rejoices.

[@rockdrigo9326]

@@SchemingGoldberg hell yea

[@nathanspeidel9195]

In chess people often talk about “the Magnus effect“ where the best players in the world often make more mistakes against Magnus Carlson because he has demonstrated such unstoppable dominance in the endgame that other players feel like they need to “do something“ in the early-mid game so they kind of stick their necks out and end up making mistakes they would normally never make. I really think flash might have the same effect on people. They know in the endgame he’s gonna be unstoppable, so they feel like they need to do something early so they make mistakes they wouldn’t normally make. Amazing to watch.

[@Antumanful]

Queen has talked about this during FlaSh's random run and FlaSh was against free when FlaSh randomed Terran. Queen said that you always have it on the back of your head that you "need a little more" until it comes to the point that you're cutting drones/probes too much for an advantage that won't amount to anything and FlaSh just wins.

[@jtypeproductions]

100% I think this is the case. You're spot on. Flash always seems to know how much his opponent has, and the best ways to exploit that - where possible. This game was a great example of that: Jaedong was very aggressive with his Mutas early on, and tried to dwindle the goliath (and tank) count, but Flash held on and knew exactly when he had enough to just roll across the map - before ultras, before dark swarm, before adrenal, etc. He hit such an ideal timing. There's no doubt that topl-level players go into matches against Flash, knowing that they have a limited window in which they can win.

[@grigorsamsa6564]

And Flash knows what that window is. It's uncanny, watching him play. One of those rare instances in sports where a godlike understanding of the game comes together with excellent physical and mechanical ability AND a ton of practice and learning, leading to dominance. Wayne Gretzky comes to mind as a comparison.

[@Lightprayer]

​@@AntumanfulDon't think they knew he was Flash here but might be wrong

[@TheSuperappelflap]

Shouldve called it the Serral effect instead

[@zhella1652]

Always "thank you for watching artosiscast", thank you for casting artosiscast

[@Reptilian.cricket]

We. Want. More. Flash. MOREEE

[@SaltyVest]

You know on the old parts of the internet in the early 00's we used to meme about goliath+firebat being the ultimate tvz build and whenever someone would have a problem with the matchup we'd just post a picture of golbat from pokemon. It's pog to see a portion of the meme brought to life by the GOAT.

[@radattk3145]

mech isnt new

[@Lykyk]

​@@radattk3145 When did you last see pros play mass goliath against zerg as more than just a pocket-build, dweeb?

[@ashesofaranea]

a golbat picture is a unhinged response lmao

[@SaltyVest]

They were dark times my boys xdd

[@CypherBrood]

I don't think I'll ever get tired of watching Flash games with your commentary.

[@jtypeproductions]

If history is anything to go by - then this is a relatively rare period of time where Flash is still figuring things out in the meta. It feels like a huge privilege to be able to see it unfold (and have Artosis cast and break each game down), because - before long - Flash will likely get back to having 'solved' everything and be completely dominant once again. Of course, I'll never pass on Flash or Jaedong games anyway, but this feels like such a rare, unique time that won't last very long - and for those who are paying attention, it will be very very instructive.

[@davido.2932]

I love your Flash casts and your enthusiasm for them. Keep em coming and I'll keep watching.

[@osrictemper4225]

Love that Artosis sits like 99% of the time in Flash's base, showing briefly what JaeDong is doing. Like him being some random ladder dude :D

[@plaginatordrive5977]

I love Goliaths. Like if I was a Goliath Man.

[@Kenshiken]

Hey, Artosis I'm absolutely not sick of Flash games and hope more to come! Don't even worry!

[@sohkrazed]

It's fun watching Flash because I feel he's trying things and mapping out Terran more than anyone I've ever watched. A true leader figure

[@immortanjoe9362]

Keep them comin Artosis.

[@davdav1370]

No, we are not sick of Flash games, specially when it's vs JD.

[@theSato]

I am a little sad to see JD nowhere near his prime lately.. Flash too but thats expected he's in the derust phase after military still.. I really want to see peak, prime time Flash vs JD again

[@davdav1370]

@@theSato I agree, he seems to put himself into good position, and then simply throws it away

[@brutalchicken]

This is some fun stuff! For a while I thought these were older games from a decade ago

[@Strider182]

As a student trying to learn SCBW/R, I was watching a lot of Flash’s replays from the past few days. He REALLY seems to like doing this Goliath build a lot. He seems to actually go +1 Vehicle Plating more often then not. So cool to see him using Mech so much against Zerg :o he even held a Hydra Bust with this build

[@Strider182]

I actually saw Flash preemptively go EMP in one of his Mech TvZs, but there was no queens when I think he was expecting to see them lol. It’s so fun seeing Flash experiment on the ladder!

[@aovemu3072]

Never get sick of FLASH games... we've waited too long for this. DONT STOP

[@Distrax-777]

If this was an exclusively flash games channel I’m pretty sure no one would complain. Except for the people who complain no matter what.

[@quaco24]

I mean, as long as he mixes in games where Flash plays protoss, so that we could have some PvZ's as well. Never having a PvZ would be a bit crap.

[@VolkannGul]

Flash casually plays. Arto : I m getting chills right now.

Flash timing was just beautiful. Just the perfect combination of having a huge army with the queen's still not ready. And with so many Goliaths I not sure if jaedong could just sit and use the broodlings on tanks without losing the queens
