Truth, but this will not prevent his fanboys from disrespecting CrunCher, as expected. They will never admit Mondragon handled the situation horribly.

Personally I think Cruncher is shit etc etc insert random bad words and yes, Mondragon handled that poorly and should've just cancelled his hatch(~1k wasted minerals).

I really dont understand the hate of cannon push. Its a part of the game, if all games were big macro games it would be boring its nice with diversity

I'm so not going to watch all those f'in PvP's. This will be the first tournament with more viewers in R32 than in the finals.

For the sake of the human race, dont whine. He could have cancel his hatch after all the initial buildings was warped in. 3 pylon and 1 cannon is already 450 mineral. Think a bit before you start crying out loud about balance, protoss or the players. It was mondragons game to lose without resistance. Pulling all drone, letting hatch finishing is just, totally terrible reaction


Even if he cancels his hatch, then protoss cancels the blockade cannons, is down a few hundred minerals in the exchange, and even more importantly has zerg stuck on one base.

And one base zerg is just fail.


And what would have stopped mondragon to take base on another location?

Lol if it couldn't get any worse, Cruncher wins next game with a 4gate. I can feel it.

Yeah Mondragon didn't respond well to that cannon rush at all, but it's not like Cruncher had to put much of any thought process into that game. He put down like 1000-2000 minerals worth of pylons / cannons, any sort of nydus play after canceling the hatch would have destroyed him

Wtf is this, people start "hating" Cruncher because he used cannons? That's just... so stupid.

Today I was cannon rushing a guy in a PvP custom game on Xel Naga, practicing my cannon rush. And he said "I haven't played in a while, trying to get a feel for the game again, and you are WASTING MY TIME". If that's the way he feels about cannons (and appearantly many people here), that it isn't "real" play, then he clearly does not understand the game. And he scouted after 13 gate, so ofc he loses to my cannons. But instead of adapting his play to get freewins vs cannons, he rationalizes and says "I can just ignore that game. It wasn't a "real" game" and he continues to not scout after pylon. And that is the hallmark of an inferior player!

Mondragon should be good enough to not let that happen. Cruncher should have credit for making it happen. That's all there is to it.

I kinda wanted mondragon to win to have a zerg in top8, but looking at these reactions, I want another cannon rush

Comical. To see a player so clearly superior losing to this nonsense, and down 2-1. Its an embarrassment.

It was a bad reaction from Mondragon, perhaps he didn't practise well against cheese or just felt desperate..

Cannon rush vs hatch first = win, most of the time
