ASHRIGO

Match One
Players:
X'Ds~Insane:( - ZERG - Orange - Bottom Right
He'sJuno - ZERG - White - Bottom Left

Match Time:
13:11

Zerg remain the species of choice amongst the Tournament finalists as X'Ds~Insane:( starts this game out by sending an early rush of two Zerglings into He'sJuno's base. He'sJuno is not going to be defeated so simply, however, as he repels the attack easily with his drones. He'sJuno takes some time to build up a proper force and then retaliates with an army of Zerglings. Although X'Ds~Insane:( valiantly defends his Hive cluster, the invaders use their strength and agility to take out the enemy Spire. He'sJuno now concentrates on exploiting the newly created weakness and soon sends in Mutalisks to finish up what his Zerglings started and win the first game.

Match Two
Players:
X'Ds~Insane:( - ZERG - Purple - Right
He'sJuno - ZERG - Aqua - Left

Match Time:
12:24

Looking to end the round quickly, He'sJuno decides to run six Zerglings straight into X'Ds~Insane:('s base. As he enters the perimeter of his enemy's hive cluster, he is faced with a well placed series of Sunken Colonies that prove to be more than He'sJuno bargained for. This failed run through an unexpected gauntlet allows X'Ds~Insane:( to climb the tech tree be the first to evolve a Spire. While He'sJuno claims and expansion node, he uses Scourge to defend against a vicious Mutalisk attack by X'Ds~Insane:(. Amidst the chaos of the battle, X'Ds~Insane:( is able to slip some Mutalisks into the rear of He'sJuno's main base and destroys all the drones! X'Ds~Insane:( then swings the marauding fliers to the now located expansion and in one fell swoop leaves He'sJuno without resource gatherers and claims victory.

Match Three
Players:
X'Ds~Insane:( - ZERG - Yellow - Bottom Left
He'sJuno - ZERG - Brown - Top Right

Match Time:
14:48

X'Ds~Insane:( immediately evolves a second Hatchery while He'sJuno elects to upgrade his into a Lair. While it appears that He'sJuno is going to try for Mutalisks, X'Ds~Insane:( tips his hand by building a Hydralisk Den and then adds an Evolution Chamber to breed even more viscious Hydralisks. He'sJuno begins to harass his opponent's Overlords with small groups of Mutalisks, showing X'Ds~Insane:( that he has taken to the air. As both sides spend a long time building up their forces, it is apparent that they want to make a single, decisive strike. X'Ds~Insane:( does just that as he sends in a truely massive force of upgraded Hydralisks and Zerglings in the largest single attack yet seen in the Season 3 Tournament. He'sJuno is completely overwhelmed as X'Ds~Insane:( advances to the next round.

Victor: X'Ds~Insane:(
