People hate Cruncher because his wins involve his opponents making mistakes and not responding appropriately to his play while all his losses make him look totally outclassed. He never seems to 'outclass' his opponent; says nothing bad about the guy, just seems to be the result of his style.

As an example look at that game: QXC with a strange build and poor macro, failing to scan DT's in fights, etc. If QXC's floating minerals had been army that game it could have been very different, so judging how good Cruncher is from it is pretty difficult (though he played a solid game that punished mistakes harshly).



This is the exact same style that Kiwikaki has done in the past, when you are ahead on upgrades with Templar, DT's in your army is NOT a liability as your Zealots are constantly buffering and it forces scans from Terrans every fight. When they do get scanned you morph into Archons.

What Cruncher did this game didn't rely on any ounce of luck, he completely outplayed QXC. He was on 9 Bases dwarfing QXC's economy, better upgrades, better unit compositions. It is like the Ultralisk, when you are far ahead you just use DT's to finish off the game faster


I'm not saying it was bad play at all; it's play designed to punish mistakes and comes out pretty even if a player responds appropriately (ie. it should be done); things like making 6 dt's and a-clicking a planetary, while smart, don't make you look good from a spectators point of view, however.

Crunchers been really good for months. Since before even qualifying for TSL3. He's always had this huge plethora of different builds he uses. Unfortunately his boring PvZ style caused alot of hate. He has awesome micro and solid macro though so I wish people would give credit where credit is due

He crushed the best Zerg players doing that 3-base until deathball strategy that was popular on old Shakuras, that's when the hate really caught on.

/agree

It really detracts from the legitimacy of the games and the players. If balance talk is discouraged in LR's / other threads, it really shouldn't be brought up on a cast for 15K people, because of course people are going to start responding.

Xeris has always been a douchebag, he is known for whining about balance and calling people names.

Dude I dont like the casting overall, but he was clearly joking.


It didn't sound like joking. He said archons are imbalanced and that they should have a longer build time and shouldn't be able to move while building. Where's the humor there?
