Connecting to his brain by bluetooth is a beautiful analogy. He cant use that extra brain to micro or macro super well because if the slight delay time but his strategy is off the charts
I mean zerg has the perfect counters for shet like battlecruisers and carries cause of corrupters and put in some brood lords walla you decimated your enemy just build those 2 compositions you win
@@zinowagner pretty sure it's a remnant of old rts casting (e.g. BW). I'd like to see the hp too but from a casual audience's perspective, there's also a 'surprise/suspense factor' where you don't know how much HP a carrier has or w/e. Not necessarily better or worse, but definitely different. Kinda like how in SC2 you can see worker counts and unit production, whereas if you couldn't see those as an observer, there's a wow moment when a player does a muta switch or w/e
I like units who help each other, like carrier+adept because in theory adepts help a lot with hydras and if add also archons even coruptors could have hard time
I love strats like this. Forcing the spire and corruptors for the carriers. Reminds me of that game where the Zerg went for Ultralisks against Protoss forcing out Immortals which would then be countered by Zerglings.
As a complete noob to the game, can you explain the strategy behind the Ravagers? I see the player always shooting the bile thingies where their opponent is but never where they are going to retreat to. Why not shoot one or two and then follow up with a lot of them just behind your initial shots and that way the bile things connect on the retreating army. Or is there a mechanic that prevents that? What's the story there?
@@demballage99 Ravagers aren't really used to damage units. They're used mainly to force micro out of your opponent. It's probably never gonna hit the Enemy so you might as well force them to move their army and maybe get some dps advantage from that.
i love watching Rogue get cheesed. i think the best cheeses of the last year are always against Rogue. this game is the best of SC2. unique strategy that requires early game misdirection
wow he used the carriers essentially like bcs for harassment...i might try it out but iono u gotta be pretty quick and essentially send your main army in one direction and carriers in the other and not sure if i got the multitasking skills to handle it....
I wish you luck!! It's a bit riskier due to their lower HP and the delay in recall's teleport. BC's are definitely superior individual attackers, while Carriers scale better as late game units. I find Carriers to be hit or miss as harassers.... Mostly miss lol.
Yeah SOS was clearly winning the entire time. Denying bases destroying most of the drones. He played cautious the entire game so he didn't forfeit his lead he made.
Carriers need a big buff. They should be able to send out the interceptors much farther like the distance Swarm hosts can send out locusts. Interceptors should be able to attack while the carriers stay 2 screens away out of the battle. Interceptors should be free. Locusts are free, why do interceptors cost minerals?
I think that map needs to be patched. It's too good to Protoss and Zerg. Because of those slowing zones, Terran is almost not able to do harassment with air units like medivac or vanshee. Also the main path to the opponent's 3rd base... it takes so much time.
Am i the only one that doesnt understand why pro players always tell the enemy what their doing? he could have done serious damage with two carriers but instead he was just there passing time and showing Rogue what he was doing so he could start making a spire
I dont ger these pro players.. theyre so damn good but some moves makes me cringe. Like that carrier build... Why not wait for all 4 to pop then push??? Blowing the element of surprise too soon. Enough for the enemy to react and build that spire.. i just dont get it!!

Affirmative!
Is it just me or does it bother you guys when they use healthbars only on selected units setting
Yeah. Damaged Health Bars for the win.
@@WuYixiang word
Shawn Mellinger but Koreans loves it, their GSL always hide the health bar unless the unit was selected.
It's so god damn annoying! Like, why remove something that makes the games more tense and exciting?
@@Joelsfilmer I think the argument is that it makes the game more tense and exciting since you cannot see who is actually winning
"He is making it weird!" Is the summary of sOs sc2 playstyle.
And i love this guy for that ;)
This map is crazy

Carriers definitely seem a bit underwhelming nowadays. It seems like Zerg have the answer for them, 9 times out of 10.

ZyronIE It would better to shoot to the retreat location but ravagera have limited range so in order to shoot there they would get picked off

Wish more RTS maps had a per-side theme going on. Cool stuff.
That stalker micro at the end there was kinda clean.

Mad props to SoS. Creativity on max
Legit screaming "just blink in!" Lol
If every starcraft match was a match between sOs and rogue I'd be ok with that.
Dude sos' brain is absolutely hufe
its like your standard ladder game
He's back again!!! I really needed you yesterday!
God damn that forward blink lol

First, Thanks for the video SC2HL❤.

@@Zeratultheking I mean, the GSL observer's Camera movement. I didn't blame $o$.
@@emxcxc not to mention turning off the health bars
0:50 it looks loke the adepts explode
Its like the corsair meta in BW :D
Not really, that's just phoenixes
Great game!
ive missed these videos more than mi ex
wish carriers should up get a buff they're basically dead weight without the interceptors
Interceptors shouldn't cost money
sOs' brain is the largest object in the universe
Is it really bigger than big gabe or classics chin?
PROUD PROTOSS
1:27 that fenix is snifing ass
sos is such a ingenious cheeser that zergs dont know what to do herp derp combatex
Love sos
nice corsair rush :Kappa:
Nice
4 carriers can't destroy 1 queen. Can we just retire carriers.
sOs: Is big brain time
s0s is a genius
Please show hitpoints -,-
Is there some channel to which we can subscribe that has all the games in totality ?
I recommend following the link in the description. The official afreeca GSL channel uploads the vods in full

@@SC2HL Thank you! I keep forgetting an iPhone summary cuts things off!
Big brain
Can someone tell me what those red circle between the bases are?
They are slow zones
5:41 - Shield Battery heals health too?? Since when?
.... It doesn't. Just shields.
BOW DOWN TO YOUR NEW GOD BABYLON
Corruptors can attach a nexus? Holy hell LotV is lame.
I have yet to see late game Terran lose. Link me a video if you have one of it happening.
Would’ve love to see sos vs life again... whata match up .. shame he’s banned
How come lck is on lockdown, but they allow gsl???
It's played with out viewers + much less people involved. As sc2 doesn't require 5v5 teams + coaches
0:07 "omg I love this man" Me towards you (or women maybe?)
"He's making it weird!"
Are they twins? cuz they look identical
Same gaming company
No they do not
Damaged health bars on always! whatever this no health bar select shit is don't use it....

Carriers: the weakest unit in SC2

Interceptors should be able to attack while the carriers stay 2 screens away out of the battle. Interceptors should be free. Locusts are free, why do interceptors cost minerals?
Locust decay and interceptors don't?
Corruptors are so OP air-to-air, why do they even have ground attack. REMOVE IT!
carriers are either underpowered. or overrated :/ feelssadman
Who are the top three sc2 players right now (Apr 2020)?

I think that map needs to be patched. It's too good to Protoss and Zerg.
Because of those slowing zones, Terran is almost not able to do harassment with air units like medivac or vanshee.
Also the main path to the opponent's 3rd base... it takes so much time.
And toss / zerg units aren't affected by the zones? Look at all the tards showing up in these comments.
Absolutely awful comentators. I had to mute them, they're so terrible.

Queens good unit
It was scouted before they were even finished, chief.
So carrier useless in the end.
Rogue threw

You == dumb, and each word, MORE DUMB
