I'd like to imagine Serral didn't know this was Harstem and probably just went "wtf this random toss wants to play lategame?" Vs literally no.1 in world at lategame
Watching 2 of my favorite sc2 content creators, Harstem and uThermal, both playing weird challenges is a win. Incidentally, between Harstem, Lowko and uThermal, the Netherlands is quite the sc2 content powerhouse. GGs Captain
Serral be like "Zerglings: 4k minerals Hatcheries: 5k minerals Spore Crawlers: 500k minerals Drones: 4k minerals Someone who is good at macro help me budget this my brood lords are dying"
You have beaten Serral if your APM was 300 higher and your decision making was perfect. For real though you went the distance with one of if not the best late game zerg. Was awesome to watch thanks Captain.
this was 10x more entertaining to watch harstem vs uthermal since i watched uthermals version first. whole time i was wondering what that first scouting probe was doing and now i got my answer watching it from this pov
Harstem not playing as Harstem but as Bill Gates playing uThermal not playing as uThermal but as jungleballs. This is so meta. And it leaves so many questions. Did the both not know who the other was? Or just one of them? Or did they both know but didn't reveal it on purpose for premium quality entertainment for all of us? If you didn't know, Harstem you gotta do better research. You HAVE to know all the idiotic names that Thermy uses for his cheesy series. It will help with your MMR 🙂
uThermal was streaming and was told by chat after the game was over. They may have said something during the game but he missed it. He's pretty consistant about naming his opponents if he knows or guesses who they are so unlikely to have concealed it.
As a protoss who hates terran... I loved watching uthermal go salt mining and hit the mother load with that last game lol. Captain's reaction priceless
I believe holding that center base was critical to the game. There were numerous attempts to put a base there with no real effort to stabilize. Harstem has the killer instincts of a couragios wolverine or a honey badger. Unfortunately, he visciously attacked into a herd of Serral's stampeding elephants.
I don't understand who watches a Harstem video and then isn't subscribed, I mean daily uploads and really high quality and entertaining videos, this was a very entertaining episode regardless of the lack of winning
Calling this 'such an old game' makes me feel old haha. That said - I think it still feels current to me graphically - and there isn't really any replacement for this game (At the moment).
"Sepe Midas Susi or Big Bad Wolf is a Walt Disney cartoon character that appears in Finland on the pages of Donald Duck and Donald Duck Ekstra magazines. "
👍 if you have arrived here from the Uthermal's channel😂 and Harstem btw although you lost this video realy entertained me, epic and close battle with Serral! thanks for your efforts. despite i'm not a fun of protoss race, liked & subscribed✊
That 2nd fight looked really winnable vs Serral tho it seems like 3 tempests weren’t hotkeyed (25:16) and so were 2 volleying instead of getting the oneshot. Was surprised during the game that any broods were left alive at the end and only noticed in the replay
3:05 "This is really not a very common build order for a couple of reasons, one being that it probably sucks." Damn you, you should put a warning before these quotes. I spat my drink all over my screen.
game one 11:00 i want you to double expand here. you effectively did just transition from GMA to even late game. also send some hallucination scouts about a minute earlier
I never seen a Zerg (pullout) huge concave where their surround and hide their army under the fog of war waiting for the correct moment to fight from the POV of the zerg enemy. Thats kinda terrifying if you are not used to it. Like been given a false sense of victory
I like your content Harstem, your comments are great addition to great gaming. While watching you this game I had an idea - how about contact Serral (or any other streaming / commenting while playing player) to send you the record of his stream and create a edited record where there would be switching your comments and his comments / POVs / split screen etc. through out the game? As we can see in talkshows. It might be interesting and fun to see your comments and comments of your opponent after specific situations and thoughts process in the match. Thank you for consideration this :)
seeing Thermy's video before this one made 2nd game feel like a horror story As for Serral, you should've known better mate. Him and Rogue are too good at dealing with skytoss, so you needed to outplay him on the spellcaster department which is no easy feat
That you lost that fight with such a broken army and upgrade lead was so suprising. But I guess, there werent enough interceptors. But i dont know for sure.
My name is Kevin Biglip, and I am the greediest man alive. When I was a child I saw my expo killed by something impossible. My ego went to prison for its murder. Then an accident made me the impossible. To the outside world I'm an ordinary Bronze League Hero, but secretly, I use my greed to cheese noobs and find others like me. And one day, I'll find who killed my expo and get justice for my ego. I am.. The Harstem!
We almost got closure, Serral never dropping a map to Harsten since 2017, a new era was going to be ushered in here, the ERA OF HARSTEN, I can only envy the timeline where you pushed early with the carriers, not waiting for +3, and won.
Some spoilers, but RIP that first game, Harstem really was close to winning there, I think maybe if he hadn't been casting it real-time and was focusing harder like in some of his other recent vids he really could've gotten the win. edit- please forgive me harstem I'm sorry for commenting before finishing the entire video
you really wanted me to write something about how you could have beaten serral. so here it is from my small brain to your superior brain. first as you said, don't throw random immortals into the enemy base, but you already knew this yourself. second I think you should have hold out a bit more with air since he had alot of ultra's and lings. lastly it might be the worst idea ever, but maybe a couple of phoenix, they can either be a nuisance to the broodlords and corruptors, OR they can pick up some infestors that want to take over your units. again point 3 might be really dumb, but with your upgrades and all I thought it could have a chance. hopefully this is what you wanted from me (as you asked in the end of the video) and have a good one.
Harstem personality and banter 10/10, UThermal trolllolooloolo hahahhahahha 10/10, Lowko your average friendly neighborhood gym-rat/try hard nerd 10/10. Are the woman as quality as the men in the Netherlands? I might need to move?
Awe maaann! You had it until you overextended across the map around the halfway mark. Just needed to secure that gas and have a few more archons like you said. GGs!
I'd like to imagine Serral didn't know this was Harstem and probably just went "wtf this random toss wants to play lategame?" Vs literally no.1 in world at lategame
fr skytoss vs zerg is already trash then you fight a guy who wins tournaments by camping with mass corruptor and viper
@@sneediumminer ....yeah, sure - *that's* how he wins 🤔
He was actually streaming this game and didn't know it was Harstem until afterwards. Even thought it was Astrea for a while.
@@sneediumminer sssuuuuurrrrreeeeeeeee
no such thing as no. 1 or wtf or etc, cepuxax, outx, do, can outx, do an ynmw and any s perfx
uThermal cheesing harstem after he loses to Serral is just classic
That was uThermal he played against?
😂
My heart goes out to the captain, he didn't deserve that lol
🎉 for thermal getting to master with reaper rushes haha
@@orepoutanes Yep, it's in the fresh video on uThermal 2 channel.
Uthermal was doing his Mass Reaper to GM challenge 😂
Watching 2 of my favorite sc2 content creators, Harstem and uThermal, both playing weird challenges is a win. Incidentally, between Harstem, Lowko and uThermal, the Netherlands is quite the sc2 content powerhouse. GGs Captain
Uthermal can blow a cow - all he does is smurf
@@scottishrob7119 Respect thermy?
@@scottishrob7119 That's a bit extreme. I'm not gonna say he doesn't smurf at all, but the majority of his games are against high GMs.
@@asdqwe123610 all he does is smurf against 5200-5500's cmon
Was Harstem playing it off against uthermal or did he really not know he was playing with his own saltyvballs?
That was a fantastic game vs Serral. There were multiple parts where I genuinely didn't know which way it would go. A real back and forth
I watched it on Serral's stream. It was pretty funny to see him so confused 😅
What was he confused over?
@@klirsnichy I guess about instant 3 nexus
Is there a VOD? Sounds funny.
@@klirsnichy no one plays like this unless harstem
Could you give a link where to watch Serral’s stream?
The fact that his creep spread was constantly just right outside your bases… that’s when you know you’re screwed.
Serral be like
"Zerglings: 4k minerals
Hatcheries: 5k minerals
Spore Crawlers: 500k minerals
Drones: 4k minerals
Someone who is good at macro help me budget this my brood lords are dying"
You have beaten Serral if your APM was 300 higher and your decision making was perfect.
For real though you went the distance with one of if not the best late game zerg. Was awesome to watch thanks Captain.

"Ohhh piss off" - Harstem - in every video... always. I love it!
As a protoss who hates terran... I loved watching uthermal go salt mining and hit the mother load with that last game lol. Captain's reaction priceless
19:50. That immortal was accually neuro-ed and got back control of Harstem after that, and Serral was ust forgot about that.
I haven't played SC since Brood Wars, I just like watching your videos. Don't sweat the losses, you're still fun to watch.
I believe holding that center base was critical to the game. There were numerous attempts to put a base there with no real effort to stabilize.
Harstem has the killer instincts of a couragios wolverine or a honey badger. Unfortunately, he visciously attacked into a herd of Serral's stampeding elephants.
1 shield battery in center base would-be a huge difference already
Man that game with the reapers was awesome!! That sushi guy seemed alright as well. Thanks for the video!
Yeah that sushi guy was good, he should join a tournament or something
It's uthermal xD
First game straight to IODIS!!!! That looked absolutely impossible to lose!!! How is it even possible???!!! Zerg IMBA! IMBAAAAAA!!!!
Next: Four Nexus BEFORE Pylon vs Magus
"I'm hitting my 4th puberty."
So that's how you got so tall.
I saw this game live from Serral's stream. That was so much fun to see from this other perspective. Winnable for sure.
Feel like those immortals would send in a letter complaining about the imba zerg units.
I don't understand who watches a Harstem video and then isn't subscribed, I mean daily uploads and really high quality and entertaining videos, this was a very entertaining episode regardless of the lack of winning
Its his subscribers who haven't signed into youtube
Losing that single tempest at the end is the worst.
26:00 you're welcome!
Jungleballs is uThermal right?
Yes
@@EssDubz haha dutch on dutch cheese
13:30 maxed out Skytoss vs Microbial Shroud
Damn, I love this game so much. Fascinating, that such an old game still captivates me so strong
Calling this 'such an old game' makes me feel old haha. That said - I think it still feels current to me graphically - and there isn't really any replacement for this game (At the moment).
@5:53 I swore Harstem turned into a high templar
"Sepe Midas Susi or Big Bad Wolf is a Walt Disney cartoon character that appears in Finland on the pages of Donald Duck and Donald Duck Ekstra magazines. "
The fact that he doesnt know its uthermal 😅
that's the kinda greed i really want to see you try! greedier than reason able stuff and how to get away with it
👍 if you have arrived here from the Uthermal's channel😂 and Harstem btw although you lost this video realy entertained me, epic and close battle with Serral! thanks for your efforts. despite i'm not a fun of protoss race, liked & subscribed✊
Appreciate you suffering for our benefit. Out of everyone I watch play you give Serral the most trouble
17:27 ¨no no no not the butter!¨ Hahah
who else came here after watching this on uThermal2? 😀😀😀
"Can he fight this ground army without Banes? I don't think he can!" followed by "He has Banes!! Split!" made me cackle. Loved this video.
That 2nd fight looked really winnable vs Serral tho it seems like 3 tempests weren’t hotkeyed (25:16) and so were 2 volleying instead of getting the oneshot. Was surprised during the game that any broods were left alive at the end and only noticed in the replay
The successful greed start made that a really interesting game. Almost had him!
Serral literally said he would have died if u pushed whit the first carriers xd
yeah he waited too long
the cheesiest man alive, out-cheesed by the salt canon in disguise, you love to see it
hit the like button despite only watching the game vs uThermal. your IODIS is nuts, you deserve more subs
Was awesome to already have watched U-Thermal's posting of this same match (last match on the video). #JungleBalls
"I don't wanna play a lategame" says the guy who opens 3 nexus straight into carriers.
my god I loved that game vs serral. I was chewing on my fingernails like a schoolkid lol
That was one of your best games that ive watched!! Noooice match was soo close!
3:05 "This is really not a very common build order for a couple of reasons, one being that it probably sucks."
Damn you, you should put a warning before these quotes. I spat my drink all over my screen.
Love the dialogue!!!! Too funny if that was uthermal in the second match. Thank you!!!!!
Djungleballs is uthermals troll-account 😂😂
Thanks for finally putting John in his place. It's about time.
looks like uThermal spun the wheel before your game and landed on mass reaper, unlucky,
"Hm, jungeballs, like the nickname, never heard of him"
Well, you *probably* did somewhere, sometime
lol Jungleballs is Uthermal. - GG!
the Serral game was crazy good
Was boring no action till he had 5 bases
game one 11:00 i want you to double expand here. you effectively did just transition from GMA to even late game. also send some hallucination scouts about a minute earlier
that jungle balls song cheered me up. thanks captain
Really appreciating this series.
First game was pretty awesome🎉
we need the heart rate monitor for this one
I never seen a Zerg (pullout) huge concave where their surround and hide their army under the fog of war waiting for the correct moment to fight from the POV of the zerg enemy. Thats kinda terrifying if you are not used to it. Like been given a false sense of victory
jungleballs is uThermal :) he just rolled mass reaper build as the challenge for this game

19:23 Je pushed hard terwijl je op 150 supply zit, je had zo 5-6 archons erbij kunnen hebben qua resources.
I love it when u thermal and harstem cross over!
Always such bangers when you have these long games with serral
seeing Thermy's video before this one made 2nd game feel like a horror story
As for Serral, you should've known better mate. Him and Rogue are too good at dealing with skytoss, so you needed to outplay him on the spellcaster department which is no easy feat
Commenting for the algorithm. Anything to help the captain.
You're a content MACHINE!
Lol to go from nearly beating Serral in his own court to losing to a cheese next match 😂😂. Any fellow ranked player can understand this pain 🫡
"An easy Ai has a better build than this" -Harstem
Ahhaha, Take that Thermy
Saw this live on his stream and it was great lmao was so happy to see you Cap ♥
The best start was that one to go full eco, but units lost was so much in favour of Serral 😵
That you lost that fight with such a broken army and upgrade lead was so suprising. But I guess, there werent enough interceptors. But i dont know for sure.
My name is Kevin Biglip, and I am the greediest man alive.

Harstem you are a beast! i would love to see a best of 5 between you and Serral
Jungleballs is one of uthermal's challenge accounts lol
We almost got closure, Serral never dropping a map to Harsten since 2017, a new era was going to be ushered in here, the ERA OF HARSTEN, I can only envy the timeline where you pushed early with the carriers, not waiting for +3, and won.
Didn't Harstem beat Serral with stupid stuff at some point? Like, within the last 12 months unless I've finally gone insane.
He beat him with a phoenix BGMWSS build
@@brimbrim5389 I think Serral never dropping a map to Harstem is tournament-related. On ladder he lost a game or two.
Some spoilers, but
RIP that first game, Harstem really was close to winning there, I think maybe if he hadn't been casting it real-time and was focusing harder like in some of his other recent vids he really could've gotten the win.
edit- please forgive me harstem I'm sorry for commenting before finishing the entire video
Came over from UThermals video to see your pain of getting Jungleballed.
In the end, I smiled.
PS. Irene was watching!
This was art.
Really enjoying watching you play. Please keep destroying your reputation and self esteem for our entertainment, we really appreciate it.
I liked due to the passion rant at the end. haha except John. Great game vs Serral!
Thank you for more entertaining content!
Ur french imitation :') J'adore la série de l'home le plus gourmand continue la stp !
Is it just me or from all the high-level games i've seen in the last year, i've never seen a protoss win a air late game agaisnt zerg?
If you had performed the correct sequence of actions you would have definitely beaten Serral. Hope this helps! :)
I wonder why Harstem chose not to perform the correct sequence of actions? Seems pretty stupid to me.
Great games bill gates! Jungleballs is uthermal... Contentception
that 2nd base location may be just to jumpstart creep

10 seconds in and I know who JungleBalls is.
Awe maaann! You had it until you overextended across the map around the halfway mark.
Just needed to secure that gas and have a few more archons like you said.
GGs!
With the right mindset, you might win a game yet captain
"he is dead"
narrator: but he was not...
Monsieur Serral, oulala, vote mystique!
Hahahaha the salt for game 2 was just too good
I think that this Bill Gates dude should submit IODS with that game agains Serral. It's clear that Zerg is imba.
Greediest man alive - and Serral mines from his bases.
Loved the video!
Holy eff, that eco game 1
edit; hindsight 20/20 and all that.
Shoulda macroed cannons and batteries all way into his bases
Jungleballs is Uthermal hahahaha
