Match Time:

CookieMonster elects to head straight up the tech tree to Mutalisks as Larry-the-weird looks to increase his incoming resources by building an early expansion. A pitched battle goes back-and-forth between groups of Zerglings until larry-the-weird hits CookieMonster hard with an armada of Mutalisks. CookieMonster defends with a mixed force of Hydralisks, Scourge, and Mutalisks but, in the end, the increased flow of minerals and gas prove to be the deciding factor as larry-the-weird is able to overwhelm CookieMonster with a constant harassment of Mutalisks.

POLARIS PRIME

Match Three
Players:
larry-the-weird - PROTOSS - Purple - Top Right
CookieMonster - ZERG - Yellow - Bottom Right

Match Time:
38:05

Larry-the-weird chooses Protoss while CookieMonster elects to play the Zerg. Larry-the-weird starts the carnage by sneaking a shuttle down the right side of the map to drop a Reaver and a Dragoon in the back of CookieMonster's base. Caught unprepared, CookieMonster suffers heavy losses and loses all of his drones before finally fending off the attack. Larry-the-weird, however, has spent all of his resources on the drop, and is not able to immediately follow up with another attack. Both players move on to gain expansions, but CookieMonster looses one to another vicious Reaver assault. Looking for revenge, CookieMonster retaliates by sending a mixed force of Guardians and Mutalisks into larry-the-weird's main base. The massive Zerg assault, however, is thwarted by the power of Psionic Storm as larry-the-weird surprises him with Templars. Having gained the upper hand in this battle, larry-the-weird decides to drop Reavers into another of CookieMonster's expansions. CookieMonster fights back by sending defilers with the Dark Swarm ability into his opponent's main base. The Psionic Storm of the Templars once again proves to be too much and after having spent the resources and units on two failed attacks, CookieMonster finally falls to a wing of Protoss Scouts.
