Dreamhack, I think?


Dreamhack had a TvP finals

Wait dreamhack was White-ra vs MC correct?


Dreamhack was PvP not TvP


there were 2 dreamhack sc2 events so far.

the first was naama vs mana (?)
the second mc vs whitera

Very good manners by Mondragon, and it sucks he lost.
Although I'm a protoss, I gotta ask: what could Mondragon do better in the last game? It seems to me that he played very well.


Maybe get some infestors with that 1.7K gas, commit less to mutalisks against blink stalker/HT. There's plenty of things that he could do better.

HT hard counter infestors. you know that right?



Uhh no they don't. They really don't counter each other. As the above poster stated get the infestors to go along with the mutas. Fungal stops the blink zerglings can surround. He was kind of implying that without stating it.

Man I have not seen a lot of SC2 because I hate imbalanced games. And no game ever was as balanced as SC1. Seems like I have to wait for the next TSL to start watching SC2 again.

Didn't Mondragon already disprove this way of thinking? Why would he go roaches when his Protoss opponents had void rays?

This series upsets me... I mean, I believe in playing to win of course. But it didn't seem fair, Mondragon was playing so well, battering CrunCher left and right. Normally when someone wins a series that convincingly it feels natural to say they played better. But here it doesn't, it doesn't seem fair that Mondragon lost, he's so much better than CrunCher, I'm sorry but it's true. If CrunCher wins this TSL, I will be deeply upset. Hopefully Naniwa will beat him, as Naniwa is actually very good.

CrunCher is just a cheesey player who likes to BM people. I'm bothered by these results.

I cannot wait to see what State of the Game has to say about all this.

I really admire the way Mondi played his own style to the very end of his TSL experience. His brood war multitasking talent was plain as day and they were entertaining matches.

Mondragon has the coolest style I've seen for a while. Really amazing play. Outplayed cruncher in 2 games but still lost because of unkillable void/collo deathball and then got cannon'ed ;/

Mondragon didn't cancel his hatch on Tal darim because he knew there is no good place to drop expansions on that map..

Mondi is so bad, he should have made infestors, it's not like he had to worry about Cruncher having units that could drain all their energy in one spell.

It's just sad, the whole situation with the state of the game and the matchup is just sad.

What are you talking about? Cruncher played brilliantly that last round. He was always being active with his Phoenix, great storms, almost less than half the units lost.

The Shakuras game irked me, but Cruncher just played better that last game


What do you mean when you say "Great Storms" its just T click T click

When you do force fields sure you need to know where to place them.

Like with emp its E click E click :p


storming is not that easy as you can't storm directly on top of opponent's units

My bracket is official BS right now, cause i had MOndi in the finals


i really dislike mondragon's playstyle. i have the feeling that his games only last this long, because he needs to make huge amounts of spine crawlers at every base.

So this series was played more than 2 weeks ago? Moletrap spoiled the result during an HDStarcraft tourney vid. Thanks to HD Starcraft for still uploading that vid to youtube unedited.

Did cruncher tell moletrap the result, if so can he be DQ'ed ?

It's over Cruncher advances; I like his style, heavy utilization of air units against Zerg and aggressive expand/cannon into the mix. I prefer that over passive sentry expand. He handled drops well, he could manage economy while doing air harassment. Interesting to see if he could dominate PvT and PvP as well.

Forge -> Cannon is from SC1, 12 years at least. Your fault for not reacting or scouting correctly.

Im curious, are infestors just labled as a gawdawful unit forever, or does zergs simply just ignore them? Even after the massive buff it's so so sooo rare to seem them used. I just don't get it ._.

They're really expensive and fungal doesn't do storm-levels of damage, so they're kinda ignored. A lot of players are more worried about not dying instantly to the Protoss push rather than investing into the future.


Fungal almost does do storm levels of damage. Storm gets moved out of generally, so it doesn't stay on the targets for the full duration. Given that, assume 3/4 of the storm lands on average, so 80*3/4 = 60.

Fungal does 36 against non-armored, and 30% more against armored, and roots. Against armored, it does 47 damage, which is about 13 less than storm. Given that fungal also roots and prevents micro (stops the blink) also, you see why it's so good.

Although, High templar were out, which means feedback.
