If Cruncher wins, I will simply not be able to wait until naniwa CRUSHES him.

Cruncher looks like a player that would do absolutely anything to win. That was disgusting to watch, but if you wanna win you gotta do this kind of crap

Uruguay vs Ghana on the WC comes to mind with this "gotta do anything to win" mentality.


May be France vs. Ireland? Henry's handball?


Suarez's was much worse lol

edit: but i would have done it too!

Henry cheated and so did Ireland in an earlier part of the competition.

Cruncher didn't cheat thats disrespecting the player. An equivalent might be Inter winning the CL with defensive football but thats also a stretch.

The point of starcraft is play to win. If you're not playing to win, you're not playing right.

Some people play to show awesome games.


Those are the people that will be gone at some point. Top players are the players that do everything they can to win. Risky, hard-countering can be very rewarding as cruncher just showed. Mondragon took a risk and got destroyed because of it, if you want to blame someone, blame mondragon for not being adequately prepared.

(Im not saying cruncher is any good, I'm saying that you have to play the tactics that work for you, whatever they are.)

What ARE you supposed to do in that situation? Take a third? Counter? Just go 1 base? (>_>...)
I mean, mondy scouted it, pulled drones, and tried to kill it, and it STILL did nothing.


Cancel natural and either 1 base roach or take your 2nd at your"third".

Spread your creep and build spines in main.

While most people were rooting for Mondragon, the people who are actually blaming "Protoss imba" or "Cruncher being bm/ unsportsmanlike" on that last game, rather than Mondragon not reacting properly to a frickin cannon rush are truly showing that they're nothing but biased fans and can't be objective about these matches.

Naw. It's just really annoying Cruncher did that ;;

Cruncher is playing well, he's just always so abusive, (good thing, but so painful to watch)


Mondragon was abusive for expanding like that. How is a cannon rush abusive? -.-' Did he know that this was the game where Mondragon was going to throw away all his drones?

Don't get me wrong, I'm still rooting for Mondragon. The hate for Cruncher though- because he played strategically and Mondragon played terribly- is ridiculous.

They cannon rush in PVP. Everyone knows PVP is shit, this is PVZ.

How do you guys know if those are replays? i know Husky mentioned replay but it is totally possible that he loaded the replay immediately after the game ended and checked that.

So there is no evidence that those are casted replays, until you can show me real evidence like sitation of interview where TSL staff says those are casted from replays.


They have always been casted from replays, this is common knowledge...

"common knowloedge" doesnt stand for fact, it might aswell be a common myth.

I am still waiting for evidence.

Im prt sure day9 mentioned replays somewhere

It's a tournament. Not kindergarten.


I always asked myself why americans use german words like "kindergarten" ^_^


fun fact of the day: a plurality of Americans are of German descent.


Well, and kindergarten was invented by a German. English has lots of loan words. (A few other German loan words: schadefreude, ersatz, realpolitik.)

I style myself a true nerd's nerd.

I'm glad that there are intelligent people in this thread. Gives me a bit of hope for the future of these things...

Nobody says its unfair.It's standard protoss play.


I'm talking about all the people whining about CrunCher cheesing b/c he's not as good as Mondragon. Thy warship MC and San when they cannon rush but call CrunCher ban-worthy names when he does the same thing.

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


Not sure if you were watching the game, but there were some cannons involved. Drones get killed by cannons when they run by them.


Mondragon had 3-4 drones at his natural. How else would he build 2 spinecrawlers?
