Crossfire tends to have what I call the "Fruit Dealer-Kulas Effect", which is Zergs feel at such a massive disadvantage that they do a completely non-standard build/strategy. So it might hurt your other play (which is what they're generally mean by a "bad" map these days), but you can find ways to win on the map.

Depending on the matchups, taking a fast hidden gold seems like a good strategy on Crossfire. I saw Bomber (T) doing it a lot of times during GSL.

If i was Zenio i would baneling bust those depots just to make a point haha - so very silly; that is a guaranteed supply block.

Zenio still sitting on his gold base; loaded up medivac flies over the gold!

Here we go with the crossfire hates zerg diatribe. Too bad Zerg actually wins the majority of their games on this map.


Idra had a pretty accurate take on this map, imo. He said it can favor/be ok for Zerg early on..but it can get bad late game, with it's narrow corridors.

I think the key for zerg on this map is knowing where/when/how to engage once they get to the mid- game. The multiple pathways really lend themselves to the viability of counterattacking/mobile armies.


But none of that matters when you consider the individual players and games, which stats actually don't...

Zenio is a much stronger player than cloud, so he will likely win. And that game will add to the stats of people who actually think crossfire is zerg favored contrary to common sense. It's the players and strategies that matter... Unfortunately most T and P haven't played a solid macro game that can actually take advantage of the narrow corridors on this map. They have relied on early aggression or somehow lost to Zerg all ins for the most part.

lol @ the depot wall... Cloud showing he has NO desire to be the aggressor, for the time being.. XD

Would love to see a baneling bust on it, and supply cap him for the next 10 minutes..

Supply is kinda telling the story of more income for ClouD, those first 8 lings hurt zenio a lot.

Zerg is pretty much forced to do cheeses and creative timing pushes a lot on Crossfire. Look out for one of those from Zenio...

EDIT: Or a fast third rofl

It's the same thing really only the other direction.

For her everything was red, orange, gold-red from the sun on the closed eyes, and it all was that color, all of it, the filling, the possessing, the having, all of that color, all in a blindness of that color.
