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.


Starcraft 2 isn't my profession. It is for him.
Cruncher's strategy obviously works for him against a over patient type like Select.


He was playing very conservatively because if he lost that game to something he wasn't prepared for, his team would be knocked out of the tournament. As observers you have to remember that select doesn't have the vision we do, he probably had no idea that 109/200 of crunchers supply was all probes.


After you wipe the opponent's army you at least push an expansion or something. He literally wiped the army. All the colossi + ground forces, nothing like retreated and was defending. Select was sitting on like 30-40marauders 12 vikings and like 6-8 medivacs. He couldve at least pushed up.

sigh. Cruncher playing like a dumbfuck lategame, but select can't really capitalize on army advantage when protoss has 35 gateways + chrono and 4 robos producing

Edit: Select didn't play well either but cruncher got a big advantage after he got away with a really risky late robo build

Late robo isn't risky.


And no race can captalize on an army advantage when the other has five bases mining to your half a base

He doesn't want to play with the Eu ---> NA latency.

Really? His internet connection must be pretty bad because EU to NA is fine for me.

That really doesn't excuse crunchers first game battle that went terribly because of his engagement positions and decisions.

If select wouldve just pushed the advantage the game could very well evened out or be won outright by select.

Col just needs to go 2-2 in the 1v1 matches and they win the finals, because they should win the 2v2 easily.

I'll be extremely surprised if coL can put up a fight with Mouz.

They seem like a pretty unimpressive team overall, kept alive by the joke that is 2v2.

They get to pick first map for each match.

Just try to remember, select doesn't have the vision you do, and there was a lot on the line for him that game.

meh, I didn't see any time where cruncher was about or even close to losing, except maybe the cloaked banashee.

I think they get to pick the opening maps. Bar that, none. Kinda silly tbh, they really should get an advantage.

And still he was the much better player in this game. Such a horrible game by Select.


Yup, select missed his 5-6 minute window to win when cruncher was still on like 110 probes


Would of thought something was up when Cruncher sends 20 probes or so suicided into SeleCT's army.

I honestly think that Naniwa not playing vs Mouz and coL gave Dignitas 3rd place instead of 2nd or 1st, which costed them at least $1000, and arguably they would've been the favourites to win $3000 more than they ended up with.

There's a lot more factors then you seem to think there is. Did you forget about the fact that cruncher's army's must've looked suspiciously small to select? Or how about that fact that select was worried about DT's being warped into his main when his army moved out? Theres a lot more mind games in play, especially when losing that game to something as foolish as being caught off guard by DT's would cost his team $1000.

If select wouldve just pushed the advantage the game could very well evened out or be won outright by select.

It was quite literally a 100 food army vs 170food army, the smallest mistake in engagement means that Cruncher gets rolled. But that doesn't matter, all he has to do is to just kill units whilst hes on Selects side of the map because he can resupply and Select can't.

EDIT:

SelecT couldn't push out also. What was he going to do? Start pushing through endless waves of DT warpins? Sure he might kill a ton but he will eventually lose everything and leave his orbitals completely dry
