Cruncher playing Protoss like they are the swarm, throwing wave after wave of 100 supply armies away but I'm sure he will ultimately overwhelm SelecT.

Damn select... he's doing everything wrong, it looks like he's not even trying. Cruncher is not even pushing it, select's just botching the game.

Select's play is seriously frustrating. He could've done so much damage multiple times after annihilating Cruncher's army. He's also not doing any drops. He's just sitting around... ughhhh..

Why has select never pushed out? This has been bugging me so much. If he put on pressure he could take more expos (he's already got the cc's to do it!!!) but instead Cruncher has the entire map. Agghhhh

You're right, with your impressive tournament results you could easily represent your team for the past 2 days more than any other player on dignitas. And it's definitely not crunchers fault that he keeps suiciding retardedly small armies without suiciding the probes to just kill him.

From watching those games it seems quite obvious that Catz and Drewbie are above any other 2v2 in this league. Their understanding of timings and unit compositions is really unmatched. They're constantly scouting and adjusting their composition while the other teams just build something and hope it works.

When your two factory gets scouted and you still go with it, it's pretty obvious that you're going to lose because the Col team is smart enough to counter you.


It almost seems like CatZ and Drewbie figured out how to play 2v2 as Z and T, then showed it to everyone, then everyone copied them. It could be why people claim that T and Z are a better combination in 2v2. I just wonder what other type of builds they have.


People don't play protoss in team because it's almost impossible to hold off early cheeses on the wide ramp maps. You can go forge first to hold them off, but then your opponents can expand safely 99% of the time and put you behind regardless. The tried and true 1v1 method where you forcefield your ramp isn't possible on the wider ramps which means instant loss on half the 2v2 maps...

Having two races is far more versatile than doubling up on T or Z. You can always feed your opponent so you can play two base T or Z from five minute into the game or standard. If you play ZZ or TT then you gain absolutely nothing unless you're doing a strategy that wins before you can feed your ally.

Which is why 2v2 is horrible for competitive play, its fundamentally imbalanced, I really don't know what possessed them to have it in this league.


Half the problem is the maps. Did 1v1 have good maps for competitive play when sc2 was released? Does the ladder even have good 1v1 maps now? The issue is more that the maps are awful, and there isn't a 2v2 league to bring a mapmaker to make decent ones.

cruncher literally has no idea how to engage in the late game. Just ugly as hell and mass gateways/warp in saves him.
