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 dislike Crunchers turtling style. I find it irritating that he's able to be that overzealous with cannons and eliminate the threat of drops and harassment completely, but I can't blame him for doing what he needs to do the win and exploiting the strengths of Protoss.

why no hydras vs mass stalkers? why so overreacting vs cannonrush?

You don't go hydra against high templar.


Nor marine against toss.

-.- cmon now.


No that's actually true, because Hydras can't really dodge the storms, because they're fatter than marines, yet still very fragile. Marines fare much better honestly.

It looked like he trying to go mass ling at the end there, and honestly that was probably the best choice, but he didn't have the upgrades

Cruncher is my new favourite player. Today he showcased innovative play, great multi-tasking, superb micro. I was a Mondragon fan but today he got outplayed so bad. (:

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.

HTs insta-kill Infestors using Feedback. There is no way you can say HTs do NOT counter Infestors unless you are joking.

Stop using the word "counters" You're making Day9 lose sleep at night.

words of wisdom

they are competitive players, play to win. Don't rely on blizzard to win the games for you. Game 2 was probably the best game of the series where cruncher outplayed his way of losing 2 bases and using sick micro to finish it out with a push downt he middle.

GG guys dont harp on balance, stop whining and just appreciate these great games.

I hear continuing to mass muta versus 4 base blink stalker, high templar, and phoenix is a great idea.

Teamliquid now is full of trolls or just retard people. Is sad. But well now we watch SC2 instead of BW so is probably related in somehow.

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.

tbh when you do it half the time it's not really cheese any more, and it's ironic that you're talking about BM when not so long ago Naniwa was a lot worse.
And if looks like you're winning the whole game and then you lose, you probably weren't winning. Whatever Idra may say, the game is not about doing a lot of stuff and looking skilled but doing the appropriate moves in order to win, and in that respect Cruncher was the more skilled player. Whether these appropriate moves are much less interesting than in BW is your decision to make.

Mondragon had about 5000 gas worth of mutas produced during the game. Maybe even more. Cruncher made Phoenices and high templars and Stalkers. Had Cruncher controlled his phoenices better he would have owned even harder. Imagine 5000 gas worth of infestors this game. With heaps of zerglings running by all the time.
The last game was a tech path loss.

This x10000

Mondragon built mutas against an army of ht blink stalker and pheonix... of course he was going to lose, that would be like p complaining that his zealots keep dying to bc's therefore its imba... honestly people watch the games and ACTUALLY think about it before spamming LR's with balance QQ

Cruncher played great, the fact that people are surprised he lost to someone who admittedly doesn't play alot of sc2 is astounding, the biased fanboyism is insane.
