Its time to enjoy the matches, keep the whining out of this thread. GL HF!
Also, don't reply to the whining and ignore it: have faith in the mods, we read every post and act swiftly. You're making it worse. Enjoy!

I asked the community in another thread too. The community is once right again.

Excluding 4 gate / cannon rush / rush. Only thing Cruncher does is wait in base until 200 200 deathball (voidray colossus etc) completes and move out. This is at least what I watch from his casted games.

and there is watching White-Ra, which is amazing and exciting.


Ok so... excluding MANY strategies like various "rushes", he then plays to Protoss' strengths which is getting a large army. What a surprise...

Despite that, you said that right after he did a midgame stargate/warpgate push. Wtf are you talking about?


He's saying that all cruncher can do is warpgate all in and turtle to 200 / 200, and he's kinda right.

Actually, I'm astonished.


Yeah it must have been demoralizing for cruncher that his push came to the natural when mondi had.. exactly 0 units other than queens and drones

edit: and still got ROLLLLLLED

Deathball dying to Mondragon?

Look to Mondragon for the "messiah" tactics! :D

The point is not letting the Protoss getting the deathball ...

Mondragon plays with "just a few units" ... five here and five there ... and harrasses all over. Thats something very few Zerg do but it is exciting to watch. Thanks Mondragon for entertaining us.


Not letting? Cruncher did a ridiculously bad attack into Mondragon's front with almost no chance of success.


A ridiculously bad attack that Mondy barely held. When there were two voidrays still up and Mondy only had one queen alive I thought he 'd lost it. The hydras spawned literally just in time.


How was it anything but a bad attack. Even if Cruncher breaks the front, mondy easily can reinforce it and push back out having a much, much, much faster natural and 3rd base compared to Cruncher. That push was doomed from the begining unless mondy sac'd his army away from his spinecrwlers and then cruncher just withdrew.

Cruncher played that entire game terribly. Not taking anything away from Mondy, but everybody talking about how zerg players have to pay attention to that is being ridiculous.

It's actually very effective with transfusion. The thing is Mondi has very solid macro and micro to go along with it. He understands what to build and when.

How do people know that those games are casted from replays?

Did tsl staff officially announce, that those are replays? If so, let me see evidence.



uhh..it's common knowledge? since the start of TSL? why are you being silly? husky even said "i'm still on the replay" at the end of goody vs naniwa.


Unless the tournament is played where everyone is physically in the same place, it's very, very difficult to schedule it so you can cast multiple series back-to-back. Even when it's live but delayed, like NASL, players in different time zones can be hard to sync (as seen by the walkovers this past week).

I don't think it's a big deal that the TSL is replays. The tension and good play is definitely still intact.

Mondi so good, and on the other hand I really don't think Cruncher has the potential for that sort of creative strong play. But I still have a nasty feeling that this fairly tale won't have a happy ending.


This is exactly how I feel. Mondragon (and Idra too) both feel like superior players. I doubt that Cruncher will ever astound the masses with creative, counter-intuitive game play, but he is good enough to cause an upset with his uninspiring and predictable play.
I might be the minority on TL, but TL is the minority everywhere else.

Ok, I know I predicted 6-gate, but since its old shakuras, I'm going to predict colossus deathball through bottom rocks.

That's the whole point of ZvP.. avoid de deathball. tbf, Idra does not have the multitasking and good decision making necessary to play like Mondi.

Desicion making? Maybe. Multitask? Definitely not... Have you ever watched his stream?


He's definitely not the best at multitasking (among the players who are actually good, that is), he has never been known for that. General mechanics yes, but multitasking specifically, no. That goes back to his BW days as Terran as well.
