Hi from another 40-year old with too many kids. Started playing BroodWar again after 15+ years. Rebooted as Terran thanks to your influence. Bashing low-level Protoss in your honor.
Just now realized that Terran's ability to pause construction is unique amongst the 3 races. Not sure why I never thought about that before. In this game, Flash paused bunker construction at 99%, ready to finish it quickly if needed, then canceled it when it became apparent it wasn't needed. Flash, he da man!
for sure, not something that gets talked about enough. I'd still take protoss' ability to start the building and have the worker leave, but it's not bad
The other race essentially auto build. I guess zerg consumes a drone to build anything. But you think of it as part of the cost of a building. You see terran leaving a bunker at 99% in a few pro games. It is pretty rare, but it is a nice optimization. I wouldn't try that on the ladder; not good enough.
So many micro optimizations, it's crazy. He even paused the bunker build at like 99.9%, because it means it would only take a second to complete in case it was needed.
Thank you for casting all these games! Without this channel, I could or rather would not watch these matches. Your intel is the necessary flavor so that I can enjoy these matches!
Kickback is quickly becoming one of my new favorite maps to watch. There's no weird gimmick like the assimilator destroying for blocking or just varied terrain. Putting a game's economy on it's head in a way that isn't "fastest map" is a hell of a lot of fun to me.
@@TheSuperappelflap plus zerg is usually way less efficient in the early-mid game so having the second and third base run out so quickly wrecks their mid-late striking power quite a lot on the other hand the map is quite open and muta-friendly
@@TheSuperappelflap kinda true although against mutas I'm not sure the 3rd base is really free. Putting up enough static D to defend 3 bases from mutas that early is pretty damn expensive
@@TheSuperappelflap Zerg (and protoss) always has 2-3+ more bases than terran for the vast majority of the game(s) anyway. So that's now 1-2+ more... and your own third is more easily defendable, literally unplayable.. 🤦♂
@@deltaphi9770 Im not saying its unplayable. Im saying I FEEL like (my opinion is) that zerg is having a hard time. And then I gave a possible reason for that.
3:32 -- "The RNG of the SCV popping out in the wrong place screwing Flash there..." Mate... Take a look carefully again at that earlier moment at 2:56 -- the SCV didn't "randomly pop-out" ... *It was **_MANUALLY controlled_** by Flash in that direction to intercept the Zealot...* ...but ended up blocking *HIS OWN marine* also !! tl;dr: *FLASH MESSED UP !! :D* .
I seriously wish there was a tourney where these pro players formed 3v3 teams and played popular maps us lesser mortals frequented like 3v3 BGH. I wish I could witness it.
2v2 or 3v3 inevitably end up with teams of zerg rudhing each ither with 4 billion zerglings. There were 2v2 on The Hunter when i started watching pro StarCraft back in the day (2008 maybe ?). It was super boring honestly. The game is simply not balanced for those matchups, or rather we haven’t come up with maps to balance 2v2s
I used to play a lot of Fastest Possible Map the first few years that I played Brood War. This map plays out a lot like Fastest because you have enough minerals to 3-base with a single choke. I started playing more low money, but it always seemed unfair to me, since I am a Terran main, because you have to be God tier at this game to TvP against decent opponents. While it is similar in Fastest, once you get good at blocking splash drops, the game in TvP seems a lot more fair than it does on maps like Fighting Spirit or 2 player maps where you get your gas stolen every game. I might come back to try this map out.
Husky? Wow, that's a name I haven't heard in probably 10 years. Assuming we're talking H-to the-usky Husky that did SC2 casts and there isn't some other Husky I don't know about
17:55 -- Artosis: "The Protoss is clearly very strong, but *'OBVIOUSLY'* _NOT_ championship-level..." Also Artosis, at the beginning of the vid: *"I actually don't know **_just WHO_** this Protoss player is..."* lmfao what a joker... xD .
Man watching your videos makes me sad in a weird way. I've loved this game ever since I'm 4 years old and now as an adult, I feel there's little room for me in the way of becoming a commentator or expert. I've wanted to be a pro for as long as I can remember but I was never good enough, so I resigned to learning about the game and making youtube videos, but with channels like this one, Falcon Paladin, and Home Of Starcraft, there's not much demand for SC content. It's been a lifelong dream to work alongside people like you, Tasteless, Day9, etc.
Well bro I do make content too and I suck at everything, but the thing is, the more content is created, rhe more people are gonna see sc. Therefore increasing the likelihood more people play :')
100%, if you create good content people will want it, you could be growing potatoes with -100000 public interest, if you make them engaging and entertaining, people will show up and watch.
Artosis not sure if you read these but this is a good example of how you could have pressured the protoss in your game. Flash doesnt siege all his tanks he sieges like 2 in the middle but otherwise is focusing on getting the the protoss base before they can get too many rounds of production
Can you talk sometime about why flash's base layouts are always so full of wholes? I know its for certain things like Recall defense and drop defense but damn...
Taking breaks also increases skill levels . You stream too much therefore you play too much and a break is much harder for you because he doesnt have the G i mean spotlight on him. Its a long process to become the greatest again, hes still far from becoming the greatest again, and i think if he becomes the best we will have to create a new title like "ascended goat" or something
That was always Flash's thing, he simply knows what to do. By the way, I'm reminded that ASL/SSL don't use the build que in the top-left, I wonder why. Concerns about cheating maybe? Thanks for casting these games and letting me get my fix of BW in between SL seasons.

letsss gooooo
Heck protoss, all my homies hate protoss
based
if you hit a wall with Terran, no one will blame you for switching 😂
Same, I’m Protoss bashing terrans with minimal effort channel X17 for life yo, or I think later it became Clan -x17
PERFECT understanding = PERFECT CHILLS
Exactly this

artosis when his wife is in labor: "I'm getting childs"
LMAO
hahahaha
One hatch no scout all in drone spawn?
Nerd childs 😅
Just dropping a comment to support for algorithm but also to reiterate and remind that I for one love the analysis at the end!
Thanks Arty!
After a brief intermission, we’re now back to our regularly scheduled (Flash) programming

It does seem like it gives Zerg a hard time. If everyone gets a free third base, they lose their biggest advantage.

“This game shines a huge light on it”
Don't you mean this game flashes a huge light on it?

.
anyone else literally getting chills right now?
1:05 Spoiling your own cast a minute into it was such an e-athlete move.
Thanks for sharing this one RT_!
Really great analysis! Thanks for the cast
Let me crank up the airco, I'm getting chills.
Every Flash game is a ray of sunshine piercing through the clouds
What would Flash do…?
A). Cancel the bunker.
GGs!
B.) Would of won
"would of"
Flash? Yes, please!
FlashCasts is my new favorite channel!
I've got chills, they're multiplying.
Finally "Flashcasts"! Was waiting for that title for many episodes
This is Snow playing. The way to microes the shuttle.
just started the video,ready for CHILLS
Flash game = insta watch
I seriously wish there was a tourney where these pro players formed 3v3 teams and played popular maps us lesser mortals frequented like 3v3 BGH.
I wish I could witness it.

that is a beautiful flash freeze. give total chill.
We want every flash game!!! Not just the new maps.
1 Flash = Chill
Damn, flash is back! Let's gooo!
I used to play a lot of Fastest Possible Map the first few years that I played Brood War. This map plays out a lot like Fastest because you have enough minerals to 3-base with a single choke.

Gonna be a chilly next couple of days...
A Flash a day keeps the chills away!
Flash, Bisu, Jaedong, I would be happy to see all three legends in the tournament 🤩
Thanks for taking the time to break down the game to a simpleton
Thank you for stepping into the void left by husky.
Subbed.
Husky? Wow, that's a name I haven't heard in probably 10 years. Assuming we're talking H-to the-usky Husky that did SC2 casts and there isn't some other Husky I don't know about
FINALLY! The drought is over!!!
That attack from low ground with the shuttle just traded out a bunch of units for nothing.
Outside of the soop casts, just calling it the star league could work.
Also: I'm euphoric at the prospect of watching several days of Flash games :)
finally we continue with flash
This game Shines a new Light in a Flash.
I got chills. Oh wait, the A C is on never mind
The midgame drop shows exactly why this is not done more often...
DEEP CHILLS
flash is guaranteed chills
17:55 -- Artosis: "The Protoss is clearly very strong, but *'OBVIOUSLY'* _NOT_ championship-level..."
Also Artosis, at the beginning of the vid: *"I actually don't know **_just WHO_** this Protoss player is..."*
lmfao what a joker... xD
.
FlashCasts, awesome
PRAISE HIM
When Flash cast is on, this become CHILLS Cast
Wow, played vs Flash in ladder and then deleted his account. That's how terrified he was.
How long until arty tries to pass one of his good games off as flash's. Then say "See you apes can't even tell the difference!" I'm on to you arty.
More Flash == more happiness
It's official. It's Flashcasts
The game was over after the terran's counter attack. Protoss should have put up a battery or at least an offensive pylon to defend or block the front.
oh finally i can have chills, been getting so hot these days
Damn that counter attack was great, I would have just turtled…but I’m a noob and flash is the goat!
Thinking about the Roman Empire? You could be thinking about Flash.
WWFD
"Women shocked to find out that men think about Flash (and the Roman Empire) every single day"
game was over after that push...
flaaaash yea!
Finally FLASH again :)
Flash is like Jade (on Brutal Mode) Mortal Kombat Ultimate 3.....one mistake and u get punished hardcore XD
Finally!

hey guys
Whenever I get an ArtosisCasts alert I get NERD CHILLS
Wonder if Artosis caught the latest 3 games between Flash and Bisu
Interesting map
Terran is completely balanced. Just play like Flash !!!
Artosis not sure if you read these but this is a good example of how you could have pressured the protoss in your game.
Flash doesnt siege all his tanks he sieges like 2 in the middle but otherwise is focusing on getting the the protoss base before they can get too many rounds of production
"Since losing to Flash"? Spoilers right from the start... So you do know who wins
I disagree with the "Not fair zerg cant make sunks without placeing a hatch" Zerg need a disadvantage the race is too easy to win with
Please Artosisu make a Flash only playlist
He said he has deleted his account since losing to flash, before he knew he had lost? I thought he didnt know the outcome of these ones?
Any guesses on who our P player was?
What are those fps drops? Once is 60 once is 30. If there had been 30 all the time, this would be acceptable, but now it's very hard to watch
SPOILER ALERT AT 1:03 !!

7:34 / 18:22
gg
what is the name of this map?
1 understanding = 1 chill
So this isn't YellOw?
Nice game
ggs
Why all the maps are so Zerg oriented?

let me guess: kickback zerg favored
Nope
I wish Artosis used the phrase "Im getting chills" more often... Like if you agree.

Only replays show that. SSL is live using observers.
@@Xenokrad Ahh, ok. Thanks for letting me know.
I’m a simple man. I see flash, I click. I don’t see flash, I don’t click.
Another Terran win, skip

LOL Spoiler
OK, you guys need to stop with these chills "jokes". Was barely funny the first time, now its just annoying. Let the man cast...
gggg
First again!
kinda gay
First = gay
