Really awesome to see Flash games Arty. I think any replays of the 'famed' pros and their ladder matches would be really fun. Sticking for Flash for now is great. A great hype build up if he comes back next ASL and wins as Random.

Stork, a bigger balance complainer than our own beloved Artosis? Is such a thing even possible? :P It's crazy how different streamer artosis is from commentator artosis

There was something like 7 or 8 zealots that died instantly to mines without doing anything. Had he chose to drag the mines into the tank line instead of stopping to fight the vultures he might have fared better. But there were still a bunch of zealots stuck behind the goons as well that were being completely useless. Yeah, it was a pretty bad attack from Stork.

@@johnkalyvas4838 What? There were like four different ways for stork to win. As the other poster said, Stork easily could have sent shuttles non-stop into Flash's main, the fact he only did the reaver drop and stopped after ruined him. He easily could have went arbiter, he was floating a ton of money. Or carriers. Or simply have waited for flash to move out while taking every other base and ensuring that flash would have to clear two heavily fortified mains while securing his own expos He actually almost did that last strategy, but his harass was fumbled almost every time after the midgame

wasn't like the biggest throw, but it was pretty bad. When someone of flash's caliber turtles like that, you gotta go arbiters or carriers. That attack was just brain dead. It wasn't close to being close. It instantly lost him the game on the spot. He saw the whole thing, he had multiple opportunities to make a better decision and just yolo'ed in. It was a bad play, but it wasn't like he was insanely ahead at that point. He was just ahead.

As someone who played mostly sc2 and never followed sc1 pro scene, I now have come to appreciate the history and the mechanics explanations that Id normally would think is redundant

Stork has seen this exact situation a thousand times before and he like Artosis said knew that he should come out of that with an easy win on the battlefield in that spot; but the game doesn't play itself and worse yet sometimes the game plays against you with ai movements, pathing, and clunky units. That's probably why he stayed in the game so long at the end, he was pissed that he lost such a huge advantage and that his army was lost in seconds when he thought he was just going to sledgehammer his way through that fresh expansion.

Wow that hold from Flash was nice! He brought the rest of his army up to flank Stork's dragoons and used a group of vultures to snipe the templar as they came out of the shuttles. Very nice tactics at play.

Great game! Really managed to turn that around!

Very dramatic moment starting 17:20 and he decided to move out so instantly. He finally knew how to get his winning instinct. Great decision and tactics! Thank you Artosis!

cool casting this time. tht was a fun TvsP to be honest

Wayyyyy too many mines to shove your army's face into. What an epic throw.

Plz zoom out more during replays. It really blows my mind that we can do that now. It’s so amazing seeing a larger chunk of the battlefield.

New sub, life long fan!

Artosis, your breakdown of the game, options players have, and resoning behind their decisions make the game very enjoyable to watch even though I don't understand the stratagies or even play the game.

Really like how these matches are casted by Artosis. He is THE Broodwar caster

Absolutely wonderful, keep doing this artois, we all love flash !!!

Trying to learn here - at 8:19 leaving SCVs idle for this long seems like a mistake? And then moving them all onto crystals even if they're already holding a harvested gas. Expected all that to be micro'd.

terran hold with half of his army without making a single click. perfectly balanced

Amazing!

holy fucking shit have you ever seen a professional protoss get counter attacked so hard he loses his MAIN BASE and 2 expansions? that was fucking heavy

Flash with the Eehan timing. Feeling for my boy stork tho

YEAH... I'm thinking we're back!

Hei Artosis, I'm a big fan of your casts and I have a proposal for a miniseries - based on your experience you can select "greatest 10 games of all time" and you can cast them here, I am sure many will appreciate this. 10X

Hey RT, in a future game can you explain the range dynamics of dragoons and marines in a bunker? The bunker gives extra range, if marine has range upgrade + inside a bunker does it compound?

Anyone can answer why Stork walked into that very obvious mine field?

Key differences I noticed on this game and when Artosis plays, he completely ignored the Reaver drops and went on counter-attack, instead of pulling all units back to base and try to hunt down 1 Reaver. And instant counter attack again after killing the goon army, and focuse killing all the stormy boys. Two big moments that made Terran actually win.

Great casting! Brings back old memories but in english :) I don't know if it's just me but the units never seemed to move as smoothly as it did back in the days before being remastered/SC2. Couldn't go back.

Men i can’t remember which year it was at it’s peak. But i remember WGTour being one of the biggest things

Hey Artosis, would it be possible for you to upload these replays somewhere so we can check them out ourselves?

This map reminds me of the old school Lost Temple map. Where can I get games for SC1? I miss playing.

Beautiful game.

That was a great game

I mean. Wow. The D-Matrix. The targeting. The macro. That was something else.

Would love to see some light ladder replays

I see a little Flash playlist starting to take shape here. One of the best things to happen since 2020 for sure (L)

Why did he attack into the entrenched position? He was so far ahead economically.

Is Larva still streaming BW? I would love to see some of his games if so. The way he won an ASL, then made a group of death for himself next ASL - and winning that too, really impressed me.

what a throw -- 1 arbiter recall instead of running those units in and ez

That's amazing

Stork legitimately should have gone carriers this game

Beautiful

Quality cast

HELL YEAH!

That defensive play from Flash was absolutely insane, went from losing to winning in 20 seconds flat! GG! More of these please Artosis, you cast them so well.

I kinda want to see Flash playing the next ASL season as Terran and stomping everyone like back in the good old days.

I litteraly can't remember even a single match where Stork would have beaten Flash... Perhaps, it was long time ago in a galaxy far away :)

Picks a random Flash replay Best casted game on this channel in weeks

2008? 2009? I played when it first came out in 98 until 2005 and it was nuts then.

NICE!

Stork is my all time fav player (not including Flash). Flash is beyond good so obv he’s everyone’s fav. However new age Stork might be my least fav player… The dude can play standard and put himself in winning situations, but then completely suicides with the worst attacks ever. It really… honestly makes me sad. RIP Stork!

Stork back in the day: "Protoss is definitely a race that can dominate" Stork in current times: "1 rax FE is busted and If Terran ever lets Protoss get to carriers, it's a skill issue"

SC-BW terran tanks are just awesome.

That's why I always set up a carrier transition when I am maxed out. With enough tanks, no amount of gateway units can break through.

@JoshDragRace0688

8 ай бұрын

Yeah I'm not sure how sitting back and getting carriers is not the better play, or even arbiters which seem to have fallen out of favor but can still be very strong against a turtling terran with the tanks bunched up in siege mode easy to stasis.

At 5:30 why did he not go for the scv's instead of shooting the bunker for nothing in return?

stork should produce his arbiter rather than attack the Terran's 4th base.

Ive started playing again after 20 years...

I wonder if Stork could make some carriers so seige tanks could be breached. With such a strong economy, doesn't sound like the worst transition idea.

What a sick game. Masterclass tvp
