[@김도영-v5n]

So what is crazy about Flash's game is he looks like actually winning even though he lost some point. In this game, (although he got lost anyway) Flash does had a slight advantage on his expansion and production while he lost in the vulture battle in the center, which led to a slight advantage on siege lining on the center. His optimization is on another level so those who don't know much feels like there's something magic going on his game.

[@Havlark]

With all the stuff TTS says, and all the things arty says to his opponents, hearing him call someone a sneaky snake is really funny to me

[@justbrosey904]

Randomly stumbling across your channel, you have reignited my love for the best game ever created and the first computer game I ever played +20years ago after being in awe watching my dad play. I cannot begin to express my joy knowing this game is not only still alive, but thriving and still somehow holding as best game ever. A pleasure watching you cast all these pro games, especially lately with Flash.

[@Gamerextra1029]

So glad to see Wraiths in TvT. That's how foreigners played TvT back in the early 2000s: Tank/Wraith/Turret with a large mineral bank and lots of turtling as we were too noob to use vultures properly 🤣

[@Grindelfein]

Very interesting second game. I hope Flash keeps evolving to the current strategies, I loved to watch him in the past!

[@Figgy20000]

Love the Rebrand. I've subbed an additional 2 times because of it.

[@icekoozie4261]

I started watching your casts 6 months ago(I wish I could watch your streams but the TTS is just too much, lol). I'm new to watching Pro BW, and I missed the "Flash Era" so I find these streams very entertaining to see how someone known as a legend reacts to the new meta's. Honestly I would be fine with the next 10 streams all being flash vs X. I can't wait to see how he adapts and gets back in shape.

[@phoenixlich]

So at about 7:00 in, Flash attacks with his vultures and loses a bunch for basically no advantage, mines were close to finishing, should he have waited and used those mines first to get more value before throwing them away?

[@notaavegotchi]

TvT is my favorite. I hate ZvZ.

[@dj_koen1265]

at least zvz is short, which is a nice change of pace after a tvt

[@ImperviousSC]

I haven't played in over a decade, but I used to mix in 1-2 wraiths regularly in every matchup. Do they ever accomplish much? No. But your opponent is going to have to do something to respond to it, and it's generally limited to 2 or 3 different practical responses, all of which end up either costing more than those wraiths cost, or having my opponent choose some sub-optimal army choice or an unexpected expense which ultimately delays certain tech or upgrades upgrades to deal with those wraiths. As an example, in TVP with opponent going shuttle/reaver: wraiths don't show up early enough to be effective against the initial reaver harass, but I've found that once you show you built 1 or 2 wraiths, your opponent is much less likely to continue trying to harass when you have 2 wraiths compared to several turrets. And 2 wraiths are cheaper than those turrets. Plus they have to either put cannons to prepare for cloaked wraith harass as a possibility, or build a couple of extra observers themselves. I love seeing pros make use of wraiths in modern play. I always felt that they weren't used to their full potential.

[@dth37]

I love it, keep these coming!

[@chongli297]

Loved the ideas Flash had in the second game. I feel like he's still a bit rusty though, which is totally understandable. I think the whole game came down to Flash making sloppy plays here and there which caused him to gradually fall behind on supply

[@sandcat731]

Ggs, love to see Flash back

[@pierQRzt180]

Idea: hand and brain SC1. One player is played by actually two players. One controls micro and macro while the other dictates the plan. Build order, what to do and so on. In this way players that are strategically good, could actually pair with players that can deliver mechanically. So the player that is in control focuses on delivering via APM, while the player that is watching decides the meta, freeing the APM player of a decision layer. In that way one could see if Light really can consistently deliver (provided that he pairs with a player that can execute his plans)

Snow and Light may be considered the best. But they always seem to choke in ASL, especially Snow. I think he doesn't do as well under pressure but absolutely dominates on the ladder and non-asl tournaments. Thanks for noticing how smart and cool I am Artosis! Love you too♥

Plz include name and race in title, for easier reference.

[@sihTdaeRtnaCuoY]

I think I know what triggered them to not go 5 fact and pump out vultures, and it's that it feels like some sort of horrible coin flip. Sure Light got the advantage and won that game, but he probably knows it's just as likely he will lose that way as it is he will win, so it just feels like gambling.

[@ArtosisCasts]

Oh I definitely agree with your assessment about what it is. But the decision making process they have is hard to see.
