Doesn't really work if scouted as well. It should hit before hallucinate even comes into effect.

People have already made their conclusion on Cruncher, now all they do is just find evidence to back it ignoring regardless of anything that speaks to the contrary | ||

It just hurts to see good zergs (not MoMan, he played horrible) lose to either ff or the void/colossus death orb. I think orb sounds more intense than ball. | ||

I mean that seems like the only option. Is all-in drop play simply the only option? So then it's a matter of how well protoss can defend an all in attack? I mean I hear mrbitter criticizing momans passivity and this is the only way I can interpret what he is saying. What are the other options left to Zerg against a defensive macroing toss? Don't max out on roaches and hydras versus an army that costs twice as much? Actually attack when you see your opponent throwing up a third when he has four gates? He criticized Moman's passivity because he sat there and let Cruncher go to four base protoss versus four base zerg before taking a couple more useless bases. But my point is, you cannot attack into a protoss with colossi and forcefields. So how does Zerg attack. Drops right? You could say nydus, but it's basically the same thing as drops, except more effective. You cannot trade effectively into a choke against a defensive protoss, so still the only option I can think of is all in drop play. Someone said mutas but all it takes is a couple cannons and blink to shut that down. You can not go Roach/Hydra and then wait for the Protoss to get 200/200 with Colossi and forcefields. Moman got to a point where he would have had to drop or Nydus but if he had attacked with burrow/tunneling claws he could have hit before that first Colossus got out for Cruncher. Moman just played that really passively with an army that's good to be aggressive with. He let the Protoss split the map really easily, he left him get his third base for free entirely. It's like Terran's standard composition going up against Brood Lord/Corruptor/Infestor at 200/200... Does it mean all they can do is all in against Zerg? Absolutely not, you can do tons of stuff to not let them get to that point while you have a stronger mid-game composition. You can't sit on a good mid-game composition and then fight their stronger more cost effective composition... That's basically what Moman did with his composition, strong to put on pressure with, then he just sat back and let Cruncher get equal bases with him... He got his third completely uncontested. | ||

Can you stop being overzealous? You're not netting CrunCher any respect from people with the things you are saying. if this was any other player other than cruncher, everyone would be ooglying at his control, but since its cruncher everyone is just ignoring it. Okay seriously. Just give it up. Yes, good hold by cruncher. Congrats. Moman is crap tbh, the way he's playing at least. Forcefields are not hard, just stop ffs. These threads are getting terrible Love how its, CrunCher's trash he going to lose, then when CrunCher wins its, Moman sucks any toss woulda won that Seriously? Moman played like absolute shit those two games. He can't even do a roach/ling all in correctly. Props to cruncher, but don't fucking prop him up, Moman lost those games | ||

His build was tailored from the start to a roach-ling all-in, and moman simply obliged him and didn't do anything to get ahead. some games you feel impressed by someone doing something brilliant or at least clever, the second and third games though I feel that moman just lost, and that any competent protoss would have won in cruncher's position. | ||

So many baddies on the ladder(even as far up as low GM league) will spam sometimes triple the amount needed. While cruncher's forcefields surely weren't anything we haven't seen before they surely must be said to have been good? Almost no waste, little overlap, good timing.Forcefields aren't hard, it is like saying ZOMG INCREDIBLE FUNGAL MICRO. Seriously, F + click.
