Also could have positioned his 5+ lurkers from his third base on the high ground rather than next to the hatchery, which would have stopped the retreat of Flash's main army back to base. Easier said than done though, especially with hindsight and not having to make those split decisions in the moment while controlling everything else.
I think if he moves the lurkers up, he just loses his last buildings to flash straight up. Needed those 5 there where they were to bait flash to just rush up and clear his own base
On the contrary, Flash had 5 irradiates and could've wiped the 3 o'clock base with his vessels and marines and straight up won by wiping the last 2 buildings Zelot had. Floating buildings could've easily bought him enough time to win the base trade if he needed to.
He managed to keep the sci vessels alive. If he pulled the hydras back to attack the vessels things MAY have gone down differently. He had what, 3 vessels? If he took 2 down, or even all 3, the game would have been in zealot’s favor i think, leaving flash with no detection and the lurkers decimating the remains of his army
@@dewinmoonl Zelot made tactical mistakes. He should've morphed some hydras into lurkers in Flash's base as soon as possible - the fight would've been over. Once he did morph some, he forgot to control them so they died right away. Flash displayed superior reaction under pressure here.
Haha this was a fun one! It seems like mm bio is good with 1/1 early. Mutas always seem to wreck Terran bio early until turrets come up and Terran can get an army out. Love the cast arty.
Had Flash attacked the third hatch, there might've been a serious chance that all of his buildings got destroyed(or infested) before he killed ZeLoT due to the lurkers that were already burrowed down the ramp. It was the correct decision to run back home and save whatever was left, building up an overwhelming army. All ZeLoT had to do was hold the ramped platform in front of his third before Flash scurried back. Remember, there was no detection with the marine medic ball, and forcing a scan would have been a game changer! I think anyways.
man zealot had this game for sure, definitely looks like he was getting strained on multitasking and nerves in the endgame. definitely a fun one. thanks!
Zelot really should have placed those lurkers on the ramp, just outside of the 3rd. That would have given Flashes marines a lot of pain trying to go up the high ground, or at least force to walk all the way around. Then again, I suppose it is a lot of pressure in an intense game. Great game, thanks Arty!
12:08 it looks like the zerg attack is succeeding ... but look at the supply: how can flash be losing? oh, but look at the minimap. only HALF the terran army is at home.
That game was romantic with the base trade, reminded me when I used to play with friends 20 years ago and we didn't know what we were doing so we played till the last building was destroyed 😂
I love Zelot's Zergs hahhahaa. I also love how he doesn't hotkey shit ... just goes 2-3-4 on hatchs and 1 for units. Goes full on FULL SEND every game hahaha. Its straight up ladder play with no finesse. Zelot is like the... my version of trying to play like Soma
Like so many other top zergs, Zelot just charges in anyway even though marines are in good formation. They just trade one muta for one rine and then they don't learn, they just keep doing it. Pick off reinforcements, units on the edges, attack together with lings/lurkers or harass buildings and workers. Don't just dive right into a bio clump ready to punish you, especially not against 1-1...
Hey arty. Loving the Flash games, so I can't really complain. But I was wondering, are there any replays of the other big boys currently? (Soulkey, Snow, Hero, Light, Mini) A few of those sprinkled in (if they exist) would be sick.
Wow! It's so rare to see a base trade scenario these days. I think that Queens have a lot of potential that's vastly overshadowed by Defiler in terms of utility in denial and DPS by Dark Swarm and Plague. Just to bring down stimmed Marines to basically becoming unstimmed, and if I recall correctly reveals hidden units so cloaked Wraiths get vulnerable to Hydras without having to sacrifice Overlords, not to mention Valkyries slowing down and slowing down their attack speed, if that's the case, to neuter their DPS against Mutas and Scourge. IF it slows down their attack speed, because... well frankly I don't know this. It's all theory crafting at this point. Awesome game to watch nonetheless.
I think zerg would have survived longer and given that small marine/medic army the finishing blow if he just built a a bunch of zerglings to go with those lurkers
The gross flaw in ensnare is the queen has to pause for 2-3 seconds before emitting the globule which then takes another 1-1.5 seconds to travel for a total of 3-4.5 seconds by which time the queen is often killed by return fire, if she's killed before the globule lands then the ensnare is canceled. Arguable the most dysfunctional aspect of starcraft that screamed for a patch that never got patched
FLASH THE GOAT! HOLY MOLY! Ensare Queens and Guardians!? Another Terran would have GGd after having their base torn to bits like that! Just another day with Brood War when it comes to Flash no problem 🤣 CHILLS MAN! SO MANY CHILLS! 🥶😁
Not really, it's just ZeLoT who is such a sore noob whos micro and decision making sucks. What's funny all he does 24/7 is allin and same builds and he still can't execute them well. Sometimes you're just not made for SC and that's fine.

9:33 Arty is starting to get chills but stops himself from saying it.
On the fifth day of Flashmas, Artosis gave to me.... 5 ensnaring queens
4 hydralisks, 3 marines, 2 terran wraiths...and a braaaaaandneeeeew ASS SEE WEEEE.
On the Sixth day of Flashmas Artosis gave to me.... 6 short flash games with no gg´s
i'm pretty sure it needs to be
4 pooling zergs
3 hatch hydra
2 center gates
and a cross spawn nexus first.
Think of the channel we're on.
@@Gloriath1 I think it's been decades, and that's still seared into my brain.
1 ensnare = 1 chill
Ill give one chill per snare with an extra chill for free! hubba hubba hubba! step right up! who do you trust? Im givin out free chills!
1 Infested CC = 1 Chill
I might actually frame this comment on my wall
Here's a vote for casting 14 games of Flash vs ZeLoT in a row. That's what the best players do, have 14 game series against each other.
Please Arty never assume that we grow tired of Flash replays because we dont. Keep em coming.
Keep flash coming! Love your video bro!
Confirmed
I wouldnt object to a few Jaedong / Queen / Effort games in there too 😂 but yeah
Im sick of flash. Im so sick of everyone kissing his butt about every booger he picks from his nose. Id be fine never watching him play again
Truth
"ksssskkk ahhhh chilled up and good to go"
Overstimmed. WE NEED A MEDIC!
Really fun match.
Zelot always a crowd pleaser
13:01 There is no way Zelot loses this games 15:01 ah well...
if Zelot morphed lurker eggs on Flashs ramp that was a 100% won game
Also could have positioned his 5+ lurkers from his third base on the high ground rather than next to the hatchery, which would have stopped the retreat of Flash's main army back to base. Easier said than done though, especially with hindsight and not having to make those split decisions in the moment while controlling everything else.

@@adrianbundy3249 You have to go through the ramp to get to the last buildings tho
@@adrianbundy3249 he could have infested the cc
That’s pretty crazy. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an ensnare + guardian game in the 20 years of watching StarCraft.
Its like from an alternate reality where this is the normal meta
Zelot, the flaming offence
And flash, the chills-maker.
This is a song of ice and fire
How tf did flash win this
Science vessel with 0 counters that irradiates everything
He managed to keep the sci vessels alive. If he pulled the hydras back to attack the vessels things MAY have gone down differently.
He had what, 3 vessels? If he took 2 down, or even all 3, the game would have been in zealot’s favor i think, leaving flash with no detection and the lurkers decimating the remains of his army

There was nothing to stop or disrupt his retreat, like say lurkers burrowed on the way up, riiiiight in front of the three 'o clock base.
insanity
Haha this was a fun one! It seems like mm bio is good with 1/1 early. Mutas always seem to wreck Terran bio early until turrets come up and Terran can get an army out. Love the cast arty.
Hell of a game.
Super fun game. Excellent on both sizes. Love seeing the ensnare get utilized.
I think everyone forgot queens can infest CCs.
This was a huge chill game
That defense at 8m had me actually clenching my buttcheeks.
Had Flash attacked the third hatch, there might've been a serious chance that all of his buildings got destroyed(or infested) before he killed ZeLoT due to the lurkers that were already burrowed down the ramp.

Swing at the king, better not miss.
I heard "Hey guys" and I got pre-chill shivers 😂
Jokes aside Keep up the great casting Arty
Zerg is so HYPE!
What a cool game! Thank you for casting. I guess it was also quite fun for flash fighting something out of the ordinary?
You hiding chills man. Not cool we all know you had chills :) ❄️🥶
man zealot had this game for sure, definitely looks like he was getting strained on multitasking and nerves in the endgame. definitely a fun one. thanks!
2:10 glad to hear that, I've been holding off on patronizing until I knew the Patreon wasn't dead.
Zelot really should have placed those lurkers on the ramp, just outside of the 3rd. That would have given Flashes marines a lot of pain trying to go up the high ground, or at least force to walk all the way around. Then again, I suppose it is a lot of pressure in an intense game. Great game, thanks Arty!
that flash hold was just insane, it gave me some chills
Crazy game! Nobody could see that finish coming!
12:33 so close to having chills...
So cool to see queens being utilized now. I don't recall it being played 2007~ish.
Whaaat best game in a long time on the channel! Arty you missed the first ensnare xD! We wanna see it when it’s so rare to occur.
He wanted and infested cc "ONE TIME" just for the thumbnail
A win for flash is a win for humanity!!
No day is complete until i have watched the latest artosiscasts
Finally someone utilizes the zerg army to its full potential, i hate seeing people sticking to the meta
That base trade was fun to watch!
12:08
it looks like the zerg attack is succeeding ... but look at the supply: how can flash be losing?
oh, but look at the minimap. only HALF the terran army is at home.
I'm already a patreon but for SSL i would gladly pay for more of tartosis. If you guy were casting more stuff togethere.
Remember to bring a sweater cause the weather forecast is 100% NERD CHILLS
More Flash games! Amazing stuff.
In scrappy situations like that, the experienced player is so favored in clutching it out. Flash 🐐
Wow that went from Flash losing to Flash winning real quick
Cool game, a bit colder and you might even call it chill.
I really expected the glued marines to crumble more!
Damn what a crazy game. This would be an incredible meta shift if TvZ starts looking like this more.
wow these few days we are getting blessed with a wide variety of units being utilized by the top players. bravo
I’m so stoked for this one
Not even Flash could hold th... never mind
That game was romantic with the base trade, reminded me when I used to play with friends 20 years ago and we didn't know what we were doing so we played till the last building was destroyed 😂
"There is no way Zealot is going to lose this game";)
Flash vs Zzzazzelot... I get chills just by typing that
Zealot wood of won if he had infested terran
I was hoping to see an infected base. Such an oversight!
awesome game, interesting attack from zelot. Wonder if he could have made the counterattack less effective at the same? Marines just shred bases.
Keep em coming RT
How does Arty make kids? Netflix and chills.
Nexus and chills
Dafuq is this comment? Cringe.
If Zealot infested the CC he'd have a floating building for the trade and could have morphed all the lurkers with main army.
"we are looking at a game from flash" is my fav sentence of the day
Good morning fellow dorks. Time for my daily artosiscast before before i start my day.
I love Zelot's Zergs hahhahaa. I also love how he doesn't hotkey shit ... just goes 2-3-4 on hatchs and 1 for units. Goes full on FULL SEND every game hahaha. Its straight up ladder play with no finesse. Zelot is like the... my version of trying to play like Soma
Def one of the funnest games I've watched... Zelot/Soma and Snow games are always bangers cause of the aggression
nice seeing ensare and guardians for a change
A Zerg named ZeLot whats next? An Artosis who Chillz Not?
Like so many other top zergs, Zelot just charges in anyway even though marines are in good formation. They just trade one muta for one rine and then they don't learn, they just keep doing it. Pick off reinforcements, units on the edges, attack together with lings/lurkers or harass buildings and workers. Don't just dive right into a bio clump ready to punish you, especially not against 1-1...
Another great in-game realtime decision making moment for Flash by sending his vessels to home base! 👍👍
What a decision by Flash to save his main rather than attacking his opponents expansions. Well done
Hey arty. Loving the Flash games, so I can't really complain.
But I was wondering, are there any replays of the other big boys currently? (Soulkey, Snow, Hero, Light, Mini)
A few of those sprinkled in (if they exist) would be sick.
Wow what an amazing game, never count flash out truly the GOAT
That was a crazy game!! So fun
I have never seen a base trade won in so decisive a fashion.
Very interesting approach by zealot
Artosis you will make it into SSL one day
Remember to play videos such as these on very hot days to cut down on your AC bills.
Wow I really thought Flash lost there. amazing
pre-chill comment
Mr Tosis with another good shoutcast
Chills in a flash
AMAZING GAME AND DIVERSION
There was 5 irradiates which killed almost all of the guardians
Flash: and that is why, kids, you don't go valks in this case)
If those lurkers were a few tiles over...
Wow! It's so rare to see a base trade scenario these days. I think that Queens have a lot of potential that's vastly overshadowed by Defiler in terms of utility in denial and DPS by Dark Swarm and Plague. Just to bring down stimmed Marines to basically becoming unstimmed, and if I recall correctly reveals hidden units so cloaked Wraiths get vulnerable to Hydras without having to sacrifice Overlords, not to mention Valkyries slowing down and slowing down their attack speed, if that's the case, to neuter their DPS against Mutas and Scourge. IF it slows down their attack speed, because... well frankly I don't know this. It's all theory crafting at this point. Awesome game to watch nonetheless.
dude how did flash win that one it’s crazy
That was so close to base trade where terran loses all building and all that zerg have is infested cc
If he infested that command center it would've been a zerg victory
Super fun game to watch! Go Flash! 🥳🥳
I think zerg would have survived longer and given that small marine/medic army the finishing blow if he just built a a bunch of zerglings to go with those lurkers
The gross flaw in ensnare is the queen has to pause for 2-3 seconds before emitting the globule which then takes another 1-1.5 seconds to travel for a total of 3-4.5 seconds by which time the queen is often killed by return fire, if she's killed before the globule lands then the ensnare is canceled.
Arguable the most dysfunctional aspect of starcraft that screamed for a patch that never got patched
Zelot could have won that with just a bit better control and decision making at the very very end, crazy game, exciting one
FLASH THE GOAT! HOLY MOLY! Ensare Queens and Guardians!? Another Terran would have GGd after having their base torn to bits like that! Just another day with Brood War when it comes to Flash no problem 🤣 CHILLS MAN! SO MANY CHILLS! 🥶😁
Not really, it's just ZeLoT who is such a sore noob whos micro and decision making sucks. What's funny all he does 24/7 is allin and same builds and he still can't execute them well. Sometimes you're just not made for SC and that's fine.
If you are in a crazy base trade makes little sense to GG.
Nail biter
Indeed!
incredible game, love zelot
12:29 I felt that... ONE TIME... let it happen... DAMN!
Zelot really choked at the end. He did not reposition his guardians to clear the marines as they came up. Zealot's game to lose.
What a great game wich we saw more of this zerg strat.
Infested cc would have been a real megachills
Ensure is so underutilized imo. Love seeing zealot use it and try to make it work.
So close to investing the command centre too!!!
You can do anything you want whn you have that sunken but all zerg wants to do is build mutalisks so there won't be a surprise.
Mentos-sis, the chill maker ©
Great game.
Another awesome match
