@@LeOssiTrollterrible at this level of play, these two guys 100% know each other, and this is some level of banter. Maybe a little bm too, but definitely banter.
That ending was the most quintessential ZvT you could possibly ask for. I felt bad for Dark playing out of his mind with that ling bane everywhere on the map, and running out of minerals just before he could break Maru. But it lead to the most nail-biter finish of pure efficiency on both sides you love to see it. I was so scared the ghosts were just too damn good until that final chain fungal with Dark beautifully sending in 1 infestor at a time. The medivacs actually out of energy too, so insane. **chefs kiss**
Dark overkilling bunkers with biles but byun manually exiting with the units so they stand next to the bunker instead of on top of the biles is why watching this matchup is a treat
21:00 I have 2 boxes of SC2. Wings of Liberty and HoTS. Really cool boxes with some interesting stuff inside. They also came with a card that had the product key on it.
@@shivamagarwal348 Dark more than any other Zerg really embodies the “swarm” identity of the race. I love how he plays, easily my favorite Zerg player lol
I feel like if "Micro Jackson" ever wears thin, "The Reaper Man" is a totally worthwhile consideration for a nickname for Byun. After all, Reapers are the units most famously associated with Byun. Plus it alludes to his many high-profile victories over his long career, as well as his dedication and diligence as a professional, playing in as many tournaments as he can get his hands on, "reaping in" as many wins, and as many winnings, as he can.
50:57 - "ryhmes with ...barines. (oh my fg..)" now that's what makes people hit the👍button of course, routinely asking is also an option but.. 😶 also first liberator parasite i've seen. a real intuitive zerg.
You can say whatever you want about the players who mechanically execute the meta builds better than others, but Dark is a whole another league winning games with creativity, risk taking, and diamond leagure supply blocks.
I don't believe a Terran player can see this game and say Terran's turtling power isn't ridiculous. Zerg needs to outfarm Terran 2 to 1 on Gresvan to have a chance.
He survived long enough to call in what horrors he saw before suffering an even more painful death than that of his brothers, torn apart by a Zergling while the acid of the Baneling was burning him alive.
Winter was right though, he really did some major emotional damage there; Byun was clearly hesitant to push forward without reliable detection, and it almost bough Dark a ticket back into the game. Honestly, Dark's biggest miss there was waiting too long to research Baneling speed.
“Don’t try this build at home” 9:08 As a plat player, I was learning a 3-1-1 timing attack with stim/shields and 2 medivacs I found the “threeaper” build was very successful, but of course there is great risk; your micro has to be at par or better than your opponent which can make things difficult for the faint of heart
48:50 im pretty sure byun had accidentally killed a couple of his own reapers with the grenades.. because the losses chart immediately afterwards makes NO sense.... theres 7 or 8 reapers there and the losses at the end only showed 5.
I'd love for banshees to become a more general unit, instead of just 1-2 at the start of the game. It looks like invisibility on an air unit costs to much power budget, so it might be better to exchange it for something else. And as an added bonus, low skill players have to deal with one less unit having invisibility.
Winters settings are perfection. Ill be watching GSL and Winter side by side and the color is absolutely fantastic on Winters, it looks super gray and washed out on GSL.

I understand these times might be good for esport sc2 and there are a lot of tournaments playing, but id like to see on this channels your gameplay, maybe a tutorial every now and then. PS: i loved the sc brood war episode so much fun
You can watch his streams or the vods of them. Uploading his gameplay isn't good for the yt algo and a lot of his viewers don't play sc2, so tutorials will perform poor as well.
you sir made me go buy those hot pockets.... made me... maybe reminded me of such goodness, lol TMFI - below. Does anyone else stick their tongue in that hot pocket hole and lick around and then finish off the empty dough carcass?
call me crazy here maybe a more experienced terran player can explain this to me, why do terran players facing mutalisks never get any vikings at all? I feel like Vikings would be a fine investment just to stave off the muta swarms and be able to help spot/chase them, as well as picking off overlords scouting for drops. and grounded vikings are pretty bad but they don't get oneshot by banelings...
Vikings are already quite good against zerg, so the only reason to not build a few is the player not liking them for any reason. However vikings are not good against mutas and especially not against lots of mutas. Their dps is quite low, they deal no bonus damage and mutas are fast so the range advantage isn't as good. Currently the best counters in pro play are marines, mines & ghost. (Thors are not mobile enough, lack tankyness & cost to much supply for them to be useful - you can even see thors getting "one-shot" by the swarm of mutas in one of these games.)
@@ElysaraCh You can look up liquipedia net starcraft2 Viking_(Legacy_of_the_Void) to look at unit stats and get a better understanding of the game and better spot when pros make mistakes.
@@ElysaraCh In games probably through Masters, Vikings do well enough. Once you get to pro level the amount of attention needed to stay on top of Mutas with Vikings and not just completely lose them, vs building a few mines or use the Marines you already have 50 of, becomes hard to justify. Think of it as the risk vs reward thing but with attention span.
Imagine in a game where the map is literally divided in half, and you play the faction that gets to get 2/3's the amount of income as your opponent while doing 1.5 times the amount of damage and you still lose. This game is just so unbelievable broken and this match proved it. I hate that this is what it takes for Dark to win because he is an absolutely great player but he wasn't the better player this finals. Maybe give zerg players only 2/3's the amount of economy on their side of the map and see if they can win so it can actually be fair. Byun has to be sick to his stomach losing this.
Wait how is that your take away from this game? Dark had to have insane map control, to not just deny Byun basically 3 entire bases but take them from him, mining nearly 40k more minerals than Byun, and the game still came down to the wire. At one point Dark was attacking Byun from like 5 different spots, because in a straight up fight, even with a 40-50 supply lead, Byun's army just dumpstered the Zerg. If a terran was doing what Dark did to Byun, to a zerg, then the match would be over so insanely quick that it's not even worth talking about.
Dark so overdid banelingmines in the 3rd game, like he still had them all over the approach when they should have been with his main army at that point. A strange missplay by dark if you ask me.
@@the42ndgecko21 Yeah possibly, there were other weird aspects, like how he hadn't creeped up his entire home base yet? Byun unloaded on the high ground outside of creep? Seems a strange oversight, but maybe the normal thing of cutting corners to stay in the game happened.

@@LeOssiTrollterrible at this level of play, these two guys 100% know each other, and this is some level of banter.
Maybe a little bm too, but definitely banter.
1:19:40: Dark abducts a liberator, then neural parasite's it, then sieges is on Byuns army, in the middle of a fight.
That ending was the most quintessential ZvT you could possibly ask for.

Game 5 was the most Zerg games you'll ever see. This was awesome
It only took a bit over a decade, but we managed to successfully witness baneling mines go off at a target and not be a complete waste.
Dark overkilling bunkers with biles but byun manually exiting with the units so they stand next to the bunker instead of on top of the biles is why watching this matchup is a treat
48:45 I suspect at least 2 reapers were killed by grenades. That was more than 5 reapers.
I count at least 7 Reapers.
Yeah I counted 8 before the fight. And the resources lost is 400/400 after the fight.
We need "Brenda's adventures" as an animated series.
21:00 I have 2 boxes of SC2. Wings of Liberty and HoTS. Really cool boxes with some interesting stuff inside. They also came with a card that had the product key on it.
Ah Dark games are just so fun to watch 💕 that last game was wild
I would’ve loved to have seen the players POV during that incredible all out assault from Dark around 1:14:00
that was incredible play by him
@@shivamagarwal348 Dark more than any other Zerg really embodies the “swarm” identity of the race. I love how he plays, easily my favorite Zerg player lol
That final game was probably the best game I've ever seen o_O
That last game was definitely game of the year
49:15 it was more, maybe byun killed his own, that way I think it might not show in the units lost
The resources are at 400 400 though

i think maybe just "The Reaper" is even better. If byun was any unit hed be a reaper. All gas no brakes glass cannon playstyle
naw. it'll never wear thin since the implication of pedophaelia is there.
Nah bro micro Jackson ain't going no where
@@nohbodhi1120 "Fear The Reaper Man" is also a quote from the Reaper unit

Dark my favorite zerg to watch did not disappoint again. Still love watching Raynor, or Serreals mechanical style.
The 3 barracks reaper should be called the t-rax build 🦖
50:57 - "ryhmes with ...barines. (oh my fg..)"
now that's what makes people hit the👍button
of course, routinely asking is also an option but..

also first liberator parasite i've seen. a real intuitive zerg.

47:17 Dungeon Master? One of us). Van Sama applauses!
WOW! What a last game! Best game I've ever seen.
24:50 The buildup. The anticipation. The resolution. Couldn't have been scripted better!
I don't believe a Terran player can see this game and say Terran's turtling power isn't ridiculous. Zerg needs to outfarm Terran 2 to 1 on Gresvan to have a chance.
yeah but there's turtling and then there's being Byun. Two very different things there.
Just ByuN never having wrist issues.... this game would be unplayable. Always my favourite terran player to watch, no matter win or lose
Winter casting dark v byun has become one of my favourite routines
Thank you for the most professional commentary :)
9:45 😂 you, me and cure
49:00 There were in fact 8 reapers that got killed but the stats said 5, meaning i guess 3 died to the reapers bombs.
Amazing commentary.
The 2 rax low ground reaper opening was infact started by Special. According to himself.
24:55 Billy again survives amongst his comrades from that blast... poor Billy
He survived long enough to call in what horrors he saw before suffering an even more painful death than that of his brothers, torn apart by a Zergling while the acid of the Baneling was burning him alive.
24:58 instantly lose half your army lol
Winter was right though, he really did some major emotional damage there; Byun was clearly hesitant to push forward without reliable detection, and it almost bough Dark a ticket back into the game. Honestly, Dark's biggest miss there was waiting too long to research Baneling speed.

Amazing series.😊
Byun new name The Grim Reaper 31:56
last game was ridiculous holy crap closed game ever!!
Oh boy, TvZ. I wonder who will win... And yes, you are right for thinking of that particular race first, what ever you think after...
Not that it was a close 3-2 or anything lol.

Edit: Just count the marine kills at the add-on snipe
i have the jim raynor usb dogtag somewhere
This match really makes me understand why dark is the final boss xD
Exciting super good match yum yum yum
What army supply offset do you think creep provides?
Between 20-60% depending on number of queens
48:50 im pretty sure byun had accidentally killed a couple of his own reapers with the grenades.. because the losses chart immediately afterwards makes NO sense.... theres 7 or 8 reapers there and the losses at the end only showed 5.
the other video game references is on POINT!!
even pro's can misclick did you saw those lings atacking creeptumor at minute 37:59
Those would be geyser banes!
If I grew 3 more pairs of arms, perhaps I could give enough inputs to the computer to play the way Dark does.
I'd love for banshees to become a more general unit, instead of just 1-2 at the start of the game.
It looks like invisibility on an air unit costs to much power budget, so it might be better to exchange it for something else.
And as an added bonus, low skill players have to deal with one less unit having invisibility.

“He’s an oncologist” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wayyy more than 5 reapers died at 49:15. That unit lost tab is very wrong

Say something about hot pockets every game and I bet theyll pay your rent eventually.
