"WHO DOES THAT?!" Seriously. That is some S-class tactics; I doubt most of us would have even had the time to think about trying it, much less been able to do it successfully.
I'll have you know that we use the only objective unit of distance measurement in existence.. the king's foot's length.. multiplied by 5280 for some reason.. yeah imperial is pretty dumb.
@@alexklick4836 "The British eventually used the Roman mile as a model in their measurement system, but they didn't want to give up their furlong. The Roman mile was about seven-and-one-half furlongs, and when the British adopted it, they lengthened the Roman mile to eight furlongs, which equals 5,280 feet."
1:01:26 is the most epic save of a drop I have ever seen... In Lowkos words: "clem you absolute mad man" Miss Lowkos cheering for this but the singing was nice also.
I mean sometimes I don't watch all the way through if it's an hour+, I might stop after one of the games and come back to it the next day or something. I'm sure that screws up the statistics.
Just keep going im sitting around gold and silver in 2v2 right now. The main reason for loosing is going full panic mode and forgetting stuff. And i think i should use building shortcuts more often messing up my macro game. Only using Groups but im learning. And try Zerg first i found it to be the easiest starter race hotkeying all bases and just spamming units.
Gotta appreciate those arrows in the Thumbnail. I never would have guessed that Reynor is the Zerg and Clem the Terran. Thanks for the Heads up, I couldn't possibly have waited for you to tell me the same within the first minute of video. Keep up the great work Lowko, I've never even played SCII and I'm watching all of your casts regardless, you're just incredibly entertaining and providing all those little infos about the game and the strategies has helped me massively in understanding the game!
To this day, i've always been astounded as to why Blizzard didn't do the obvious thing to keep SC2 fresh; just include all of the campaign units but have them and their respective upgrades replace an existing available unit as a cost, so more diverse army comps and strategies can be possible without having everything at once. I've always wanted to see Diamondbacks, Science Vessels, Corpsers, Abberations, Ascendants, and Vanguards in multiplayer as possible branching unit choices.
Randomly going into iron maiden watching this then hearing Lowko do the same confirms he would be a pretty cool guy to have coffee with even if we didn't talk about Starcraft
At around 1:01:20, clem uses the reaper to throw the grenade on top of his own army to bounce them out of the surround of the zerglings. High level stuff right there. #lowkoblindness
That first game was actually flawless. What an insane performance. I am starting to believe that balance isn't the reason why it would be difficult for me to beat one of these pro gamers...
@@samhwang7748 i mean, on one hand you can't split your marines like clem, on the other hand your opponents can split banelings like reynor, so just do somes mines and maraudeurs :p
As a low end player floating high gold low platinum, I find dealing with controlling a raven with your army requires too much APM for what it’s worth. It turns awkwardly and is a bit too slow, additionally it usually needs its own hot key as it overtakes things like tank siege and stim hot keys when controlling your army.
So one thing I've heard about this series is that Reynor changed some of hit hotkeys. That could explain that mistake in g1 where he made the swarm hosts. Pretty sure that's not what was supposed to be produced there. He also makes a few other mistakes here and there which might be due to him changing some stuff up a bit. Still a nice series from the both of them! I'd watched someone else cast this as I was in dire need of some SC2 and there wasn't anything of Lowkos I hadn't seen and, I have to say, Lowko is one hell of a caster! So much energy, always explaining what's going on, pretty much always great "camera" work, showing the action and the important bits, explaining strategies and all. I've yet to find another caster I like watching as much as this man right here.
Also, I feel like that pause in g4 really hurt Reynor's strategy. You were talking in g3 about how a couple seconds in Beckett Industries can change a lot and I feel like had the pause not happened, Clem would have taken maybe 1-2 seconds more to send the marines into the base and the SCVs out of it. In that case, it would have been a phenomenal position for Reynor, who was coming in with a follow up ling bane push. If that had gone perfectly, it would have hurt both the eco and army of Clem. Of course, there is the possibility that Clem would have reacted just as fast. Guess we'll never know. I just found it to be quite unfortunate. Reynor appeared a bit off his game in g5..
With coffee it’s usually a metabolic response as apposed to an addictive response. You’re body gets incredibly accustomed to routine Early morning food and drink. The combination of milk and sugar and caffeine at routine intervals will affect your bodies sleep patterns and other digestive patterns. Cutting off that routine can throw lots of important systems off in very minor ways that often show themselves in the form of headaches, stomach aches, or isolated IBS symptoms.
Got the same pb as you with coffee Lowko, and yes, that's a symptom of caffeine addiction. Hits me hard especially on Sat/Sun mornings, since on week days I drink my espresso early in the morning, so no time for the headache to kick in...
Comment for the algorithm, but great games! I love those tense matches where players go head to head in wins and actually play all 3/5/7 games of the "Best of 3/5/7"
Sounds like withdrawal headaches. Your body gets used to the effects of caffeine, so it'll over compensate when you stop taking it. Personally, I only take coffee when I'm dead tired and need to stay awake, like a night shift or xmas party.
I like how Lowko is suprised that people stay to the end in a series whole I'm over here wondering who would leave before they know who wins? Although I already did since I saw who won this tournament and Reynor's tweet about it....
The video: High level T v Z on a brand new map. It is best of 5 series and the video playtime is 1 hour and 7 minutes long. Me: Yeah I'm in for a treat ^^
No one commentates high level star craft 2 better than lowko. No one, he's the best. When things are moving a million miles per hour he captures it and explains why its important it's top class understanding, communication, and personality. However, ok, and I mean this with love, no one is more awkward and unnecessary when things are a little slow in game. "Btw guys, my neighbor has a car! It's crazy. I know I was like, no way. But guess what is true. I'm looking right at it, it's real and it has 4 tires and windows and everything. Which reminds me, I love coffee. Who doesn't, amirite? Coffee, more like cough ee. Because when you drink it, and it's too hot, you might cough. Have you guys ever not had coffee? That is crazy." *Awkward laugh* Lowko is like Superman. He's the strongest dude on the planet who larps as a dorky dweeb. Imagine if lowko just decided he was a bad MF. He could rival the doc. Yayayaya.
2:13 You unintentionally said Showtime is SoS on a good day AND TOTALLY MISSED MAKING A JOKE. WHERE WAS THE JOKE SIMON?! PS-100% agree both coffee and tea are great. Awesome series and great casting. I can enjoy the match even from the other room just off Lowko's commentary :)
5000 kilometers = 5000 washing machines might just be the single greatest "say a random thing so you can keep talking" moment I have ever seen in my life, I was laughing for a good minute straight and will probably get a giggle out of it for quite some time to come whenever it comes up...if it comes up that is, not the kinda thing that's gonna get referenced a lot in my life. 3100 miles btw. 5280 feet per mile sounds like just about the most arbitrary measurement ever but like a lot of our bizarre measurements over here it is/was actually based on something commonly used, in this case it was travel distance over a span of time based on the sun's movement (for a cart I think? this was based on merchants long-distance travel times more than anything else) likewise the similarly arbitrary-seeming league comes from legionaries' marching practices, it wasn't even based on distance/rate/time but instead on using a surveyor's method of measuring distances while they traveled, so they were straight up mapping the terrain and dropping down the first step for making roads as they marched, the romans had a weirdly uncommon practice of keeping their soldiers productively employed and busy as public works engineers when they weren't on campaign instead of tossing them out the back door to either make their way home or just keep living like a soldier out on campaign in their own territory. or in other words become bandits. a foot was literally some specific king's foot, if you try to look it up you'll probably find someone vaguely making fun of the guy for the sheer vanity of trying to make everyone use his foot to measure things by but even cursory research into the matter will usually leave you leaning much more heavily towards the belief that the guy was honestly trying to help mitigate the insanity by enforcing *_ANY_* standardized unit, more on that later. a hand was an average hand across the base of the fingers (so widthwise not lengthwise) and in practice _your_ hand specifically as you constantly measure things against it in your day to day life. this was obviously not a terribly agreed upon distance which is part of why the measurement just never really made it through the standardization efforts of the industrial revolution despite being by FAR the most commonly used unit in day-to-day, especially in a workplace. a yard was an average step length (specifically steps while walking as if you're trying to cover ground effectively, again based on long-distance travelers) rounded off to the closest foot. inches though? those are completely utterly arbitrary and I have NO idea why they went with 4 inches to the hand and 12 to the foot. feel free to make fun of our units for volume and weight though, those are utter bullshit. uh, literally bullshit: european merchants intentionally prevented standardization on units of weight and mass to game the system to cheat people, so all over europe each settlement had pretty much completely unrelated measures for a wide variety of unit names often even disagreeing on whether those names were for a unit of volume or a unit of mass. if you want to get a hint of how bad it was try looking up how much a "Stone" weighs, then imagine that level of silliness going on for every single unit of measurement and invariably differing from one town to the next. often even one _person_ to the next. in short before the industrial revolution made standardization so critically important most people with resources and influence actually had a vested interest in keeping everything an unintelligible mess and making "in" groups out of who you shared information with. long distance travel was about the only thing they could abide being functional since they kiiiinda needed it to navigate and get a rough schedule on shipments and travel and whatnot.
love your attitude and I love the videos, I swear they're therapeutic. If you have them, could you cast more European vs Korean pro games? I enjoyed your commentary on Zest vs Reynor for the grand finals but also in general I like how you address the subtle differences between how Koreans and non-Koreans play. Thanks again for your great work!
If you struggle waiting for new video from lowko, remember when you eat dinner he's likely to upload that video while you're having dinner EVERY TIME its the same. I wonder he reads our comments by eating dinner (carrots with milo) too...
Can we take a minute to let the fact sink in that the top 3 players are foreigners? Holy shit. It feels like yesterday when we were calling Neeb the foreign hope and now, here we are. Since 2018 the playing field took a big turn. I remember Dark saying before the 2018 Blizcon said he doesn't consider Serral or any foreigner a threat 'becaise Rogue is better than Serral, and I can beat Rogue'. :')
Coffee and Tea for sure have a different type of 'high'. If I mix them I am way more 'hyped' then when just drinking coffee. But this is Indian black tea that sits in the pan boiling for 5 minutes instead one of those pickwick bags...
Lowko : i know the debate is about coffee or tea. What about both ? * me at breakfast while drinking hot chocolate * : sure... Lowko : don't kill my creep tumor! i ask nicely !! /i think he heard me * awkward drinking noise *
Ah Lowko, but at at low low league I play at, mutalisks CAN actually be good, because my opponents ALSO suck and are really bad at defending against them 😎
Hey Lowko, txs for the casts, you're doing great. Question, when a zerg playser do a queens march,going to the fight, why don't they push an overlord behind the queens to create a patch of creep with Excrete Creep? They could increase their chances to have a good retreat. Am i mising someting?
Studies have shown something as simple as a cold glass of water and an apple can effectively wake someone up better than a cup of coffee, as long as they are not addicted to caffeine. Coffee becomes the cause of its own cure.
The headache from not drinking coffee is because of caffeine withdrawal. Means you're drinking a little too much caffeine and your brain is getting cranky without it. May what to drink slightly less or space out you're consumption across the day.
The result of the battle at 27:03 proves that queen injects are TOO fukin good. They need to nerf that shit. 46:27 just makes me sick. I agree with the mutas...they are not good. They're way too fragile and if they don't get to the mineral line they're useless. They need to do something where they allow the muta to upgrade into the corruptor instead of building corruptors separate so that mutas are just dead money/gas after they've outlived their shelf life if any. However, mutas need a a group of marines mines and towers minimum to defend. A handful of Queens can defend against early battlecruisers. Let that sink in.
1:01:25 Did Clem seriously just used a reaper grenade to break his own marines out of the ling-surround?! Awesome!
Yeah I saw that too, that looked so epic. :D He really utilized the Reaper a lot throughout the midgame, really gives to keep it alive I guess!

Would just like to say, I watched from beginning to end. I am part of the 70%. Love the content Lowko.

These "Kilometers" still confuse me. How much is that in freedom units
It's like an arm and two finger nails. If that helps you.
A kilometer is about 2.7 donuts per bullet squared.
1 KM is about ~500 Bald Eagle wingspans
Wingspan of the entire bird, not one wing though
(for anyone who's not a native speaker)
@@MrNicoJac underappreciated comment
I didn't watch it yet. I was wainting for you to cast it because i know that's a very good one
5000 kilometers = 5000 washing machines might just be the single greatest "say a random thing so you can keep talking" moment I have ever seen in my life, I was laughing for a good minute straight and will probably get a giggle out of it for quite some time to come whenever it comes up...if it comes up that is, not the kinda thing that's gonna get referenced a lot in my life.
3100 miles btw.
5280 feet per mile sounds like just about the most arbitrary measurement ever but like a lot of our bizarre measurements over here it is/was actually based on something commonly used, in this case it was travel distance over a span of time based on the sun's movement (for a cart I think? this was based on merchants long-distance travel times more than anything else)
likewise the similarly arbitrary-seeming league comes from legionaries' marching practices, it wasn't even based on distance/rate/time but instead on using a surveyor's method of measuring distances while they traveled, so they were straight up mapping the terrain and dropping down the first step for making roads as they marched, the romans had a weirdly uncommon practice of keeping their soldiers productively employed and busy as public works engineers when they weren't on campaign instead of tossing them out the back door to either make their way home or just keep living like a soldier out on campaign in their own territory. or in other words become bandits.
a foot was literally some specific king's foot, if you try to look it up you'll probably find someone vaguely making fun of the guy for the sheer vanity of trying to make everyone use his foot to measure things by but even cursory research into the matter will usually leave you leaning much more heavily towards the belief that the guy was honestly trying to help mitigate the insanity by enforcing *_ANY_* standardized unit, more on that later.
a hand was an average hand across the base of the fingers (so widthwise not lengthwise) and in practice _your_ hand specifically as you constantly measure things against it in your day to day life. this was obviously not a terribly agreed upon distance which is part of why the measurement just never really made it through the standardization efforts of the industrial revolution despite being by FAR the most commonly used unit in day-to-day, especially in a workplace.
a yard was an average step length (specifically steps while walking as if you're trying to cover ground effectively, again based on long-distance travelers) rounded off to the closest foot.
inches though? those are completely utterly arbitrary and I have NO idea why they went with 4 inches to the hand and 12 to the foot.
feel free to make fun of our units for volume and weight though, those are utter bullshit.
uh, literally bullshit: european merchants intentionally prevented standardization on units of weight and mass to game the system to cheat people, so all over europe each settlement had pretty much completely unrelated measures for a wide variety of unit names often even disagreeing on whether those names were for a unit of volume or a unit of mass. if you want to get a hint of how bad it was try looking up how much a "Stone" weighs, then imagine that level of silliness going on for every single unit of measurement and invariably differing from one town to the next. often even one _person_ to the next.
in short before the industrial revolution made standardization so critically important most people with resources and influence actually had a vested interest in keeping everything an unintelligible mess and making "in" groups out of who you shared information with. long distance travel was about the only thing they could abide being functional since they kiiiinda needed it to navigate and get a rough schedule on shipments and travel and whatnot.
I agree 100% with the coffee thing.
love your attitude and I love the videos, I swear they're therapeutic. If you have them, could you cast more European vs Korean pro games?

Sooooo you're telling me Raynor is human? Lowko is also human..... does that mean Lowko is Raynor?
Lowko : i know the debate is about coffee or tea. What about both ?
* me at breakfast while drinking hot chocolate * : sure...
Lowko : don't kill my creep tumor! i ask nicely !! /i think he heard me
* awkward drinking noise *
1 coffee in the morning followed by tea the rest of the day except for launch days. Then it’s coffee all day.
Ah Lowko, but at at low low league I play at, mutalisks CAN actually be good, because my opponents ALSO suck and are really bad at defending against them 😎
if no caffeine gets you headache youre addicted to it, and experiencing withdrawal. try to cut down/control there are worse stages
This map is so gorgeous
Dude, I don’t care if is 10minutes or 10 hours if is good content like yours I stay till the end
I think the reason behind the chose of scanning instead of raven it's to save gas and psi
8:06
"Keep drowning"; on an underwater map.
Bada Bum tss
Getting headaches when you don't drink coffee is a sign of caffeine withdrawal. Not great.
Coffee is good for Liver. Tea, especially Green, is good for Kidneys. So, both.
Hey Lowko, txs for the casts, you're doing great. Question, when a zerg playser do a queens march,going to the fight, why don't they push an overlord behind the queens to create a patch of creep with Excrete Creep? They could increase their chances to have a good retreat. Am i mising someting?
Well, instead of football fields, lowko introduces new measurement, "Washingmachine" xD
Adding to the debate of 57:16, I say neither of those. Mate is better and you can drink it at 7 am, 5pm or 2 am, it'ill always be fine.
Studies have shown something as simple as a cold glass of water and an apple can effectively wake someone up better than a cup of coffee, as long as they are not addicted to caffeine.
Coffee becomes the cause of its own cure.
The headache from not drinking coffee is because of caffeine withdrawal. Means you're drinking a little too much caffeine and your brain is getting cranky without it. May what to drink slightly less or space out you're consumption across the day.
Forget about both coffee and tea. Hot cocoa is best!
Clem SVC 69 that's quite nice "very nice very nice.." XD
38:26
Wtf, that SCV in the top left lmao
It was trying to down the ramp but since the depot was up it couldn't. It bugs out the AI of the game.
The result of the battle at 27:03 proves that queen injects are TOO fukin good. They need to nerf that shit. 46:27 just makes me sick. I agree with the mutas...they are not good. They're way too fragile and if they don't get to the mineral line they're useless. They need to do something where they allow the muta to upgrade into the corruptor instead of building corruptors separate so that mutas are just dead money/gas after they've outlived their shelf life if any. However, mutas need a a group of marines mines and towers minimum to defend. A handful of Queens can defend against early battlecruisers. Let that sink in.
These are the two best players on the planet imo and they're both from Europe😍😍
god this game is so fucking good. it just gets better with time.
