Let us give thanks on this glorious day. Thank you Winter for all the great casting. Thank you Jimmy for making him seem halfway competent. Thank you Rickey; Swarm hosts get a bad wrap and you always make us proud. Thank you Cletus. Some people call you an accident, I just see a brave little cyclone. And of course, thank you Daughtership. You might not have much health and might take six months to build, but we're really proud of your weight loss. 😂❤🎉
This is why pro-but-not-top-tier matches are the best. Watching Clem vs Serral is like watching someone laboriously solve a math problem, and the match ends when one recognizes the logistics of the situation are unlikely to be recoverable. They all end with a wet fart just as things start getting good. This? This is entertainment of the best variety.
Winter, you are genuinely the funniest caster out there . I just want to give you props for being such an amazing creator for the SC2 scene. Been watching since 2019 and wish it was earlier. Keep it up 👍
I did lmao. Any Serral game in general, Serral vs Clem in the ESL winters EU was a masterpiece of control. For protoss Showtime vs Maxpax was incredible, and Her0 as well, amazing players. At first it was frustrating seeing Astrea and Kelazhur play it seemed like they were making beginner mistakes, it felt like platinum players. Im a platinum level player, so thinking back at my games its like night and day. Astrea and Kelazhur are some of the best players in the world. Just shows you how special the cream of the crop of SC2 is, there really are only around 15 guys that can play at that level. by race: terran: Maru, Clem, Byun, Oliveira, Cure Zerg: Serral, Reynor, Solar, Dark, and Rogue when hes back Toss: Her0, Maxpax, Showtime, classic
yeah, Kalazhur's macro and micro is so so so bad in comparison. It's so painful to watch, he could have ended the game 8mins earlier. He don't even use grenade just F2 everything. Shooting actual buildings and not the pylons, so he can move on to cause more damage. Could have split the units and broken his 4th and 5th and robo production, but he wants everyone clumped up together so it's easier to F2. 2 Medivac drop and main army does nothing. IQ level 1000. Looks like a platinum game to me lol
@@JustGeekstuff I swear, but hes still top 50 in the world. Astrea also looked terrible as if he never learned how to defend against drops or how to split against widow mines. Just walked into widow mines every time it hurt >.
@@crazzynezThe different is so great with the top 15. Like they can't do both. Purely just proxy, cheesing and choice of strategy. It's NA after all. Very limited to none factors involving micro. Sure if you cheese a lot and play like 8 hours a day.
@ the 13:44 minute mark of the first game, Astrea did a fucking pro move to take out that medivac that wanted to scoop up the marines trapped by the forcefield and actually succeeded in killing it. The forcefields worked out 100% the way he wanted to. Cant believe you misread that move winter. Clearly that chronoboost for your brain ran out. Brain not braining!!!! :D
@ 35:54 "and now where the fuc--- ahem heck are we!?" my thoughts this whole match lol NA gotta get it together! happy thanksgiving Winter excellent cast. very entertaining !
Do you think when Winter turns to look at Jimmie, that he has a prop like a stuffed zergling he’s looking at? Or is there just a certain spot on the wall that he looks at each time? 😂
Looks like I am that math guy. At 4 damage per shot after accounting for armor, it would take 10 phoenixes(20 shots per .8 seconds) 19 volleys to kill an orbital with 1500 health, or just over 15 seconds of continuous fire.
I wasnt paying attention and was so confused when game 5 said best of 5, I thought it was going to be an insane game with how long was left in the video.
LOL @ "You know, I really gotta think through these sentences before I say 'em...but then, I would be doing more planning than these two have been most the series" - 55:14
Well this was certainly different lol, feels like ladder. A surprise protoss victory at the end there! I was skeptical of the tempests but tempest disruptor really came through!
Never played the game, just a casual enjoyer of Winter's cast. My only experience with the game is watching your usual maru/serral/dark/clem & so on. This was different.
Mb try it out one day, the game is free nowadays. The campaign is really good and what most people play, the co-op is also quite enjoyable. Both of those modes are a lot more relaxed than what you see Winter cast. Just one of those games I liike to replay every now and again on holidays.
After watching Serral, maru, clem etc for so long seeying pro players play like humans, making mistakes worse than " HE WAS MULTITASKING IN 2 PLACES ON MAP SO HE DIDNT SEE BANEDROP" is refreshing
Were those games deonstrations of good game sense and mastery? No. But I must say it's the most fun I've had watching Starcraft in a very long time! There, comment for the UA-cam gods.
Finna bbq some Zerglings later. Go well with the gravy.
This reminds me of how watching semi-pro and college level games can be more entertaining than watching the pro games
I'm here for Jimmie.
The first time i watched one of winter's video i thought jimmie was real 😂
@@raphaelfamilyfirst3058he is REAL in our hearts
@@raphaelfamilyfirst3058same though 😂😂😂
@@raphaelfamilyfirst3058what do you mean "you thought jimmie was real" ?!? #intensestare What are you trying to say lad ?!?
Damnit Jimmy!
3 minutes in and they’ve already gone full NA. You love to see it
I really like it when people use aliguc to say that races are balanced when you have players like these lol
Let us give thanks on this glorious day.

The last game though. That last game. That last death march of the protoss and assault on the enemy stronghold. Absolutely epic that was.
It was, it was. It really was

The sheer number of disrupter hits was actually insane.
1:03:32 - "Doesn't have any energy but wants to participate" I felt that
I'm only 6 minutes in and this is already the most NA match I've ever seen
i like how winter spices up his player introductions
which is the more entertaining ? Bronze League Heroes or North America Finals ? You decide!
There's a difference?
I thought the series was called Bronze League American Finals.
Winter, you are genuinely the funniest caster out there . I just want to give you props for being such an amazing creator for the SC2 scene. Been watching since 2019 and wish it was earlier. Keep it up 👍
This is a great representation of fun top-level Starcraft. I'm happy to have watched this one.
they deserve each other so much
Watch this match right after watching Serral vs Maru and Raynor vs Clem - trust me, you'll notice the difference!

@@crazzynez i guess outside the top 15/20, the dropoff of talent is severe?? or maybe it is just a NA thing 😁

that bunker mule literally had me in fucking tears i mean who does that.. hahahaha

This was great! Wish there were way more games like this.
Wow what a series ! Special mention for me discovering for the first time the fast expands style of Astrea. I Love it !
"recalling from the fire into the frying pan" great line
Thanks!

Bro wtf look at the chargelots charging through the whole mineral line to hit the bunker at 25:22 xD thats some long ass charge man
Wild the differential between the Americas players and the best in the world.
I’m disappointed no one has answered the pheonix attacks to command center math problem for me
Good lord waking up, making my breakfast and as soon as I sit down I get this video on my feed?
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
LOL @ "You know, I really gotta think through these sentences before I say 'em...but then, I would be doing more planning than these two have been most the series" - 55:14
OMFG Such a Series!! That last game was incredible
"They expect one of us in the wreckage beother"
Alright you got me with that one
Happy Thanksgiving Winter!! Thank you for all the quality content and effort you put into your casts!
this is nuts and awesome and i love it to death, thanks so much for the thanksgiving present
Everytime he casts an NA skirmish im reminded of playing Heart of the swarm because wow that first game🤣 straight out of 2013
These are great games, even Winter is trying to figure out what's going on. Just incredible.
Well this was certainly different lol, feels like ladder. A surprise protoss victory at the end there! I was skeptical of the tempests but tempest disruptor really came through!
Those who think Astrea should inherit the bald eagle cry from Neeb say “Aye!”
42:55 That went just how I planned it...cept bad.
15:33 some mf'ers always trying to iceskate uphill
The Terran side says go Terran.
The US side says go protoss.
The winter side says go like and subscribe
Never played the game, just a casual enjoyer of Winter's cast. My only experience with the game is watching your usual maru/serral/dark/clem & so on.

Top tier assistant right there. Let's give it up for Jimmy
best thanksgiving ever. these matches are so entertaining to watch.
you mean the caster made it interesting to watch. The players are very painful to watch.
It’s like two competent UFC fighters fighting except in a bar and both drunk.
An unupgraded phoenix takes 188 (or 376) shots to kill an unupgraded command centre @ 8 damage per shot
What a series! Huge exhale when it was over.
If you hid the names and casted game 3 as a Bronze League Heroes vid, no one would've second guessed it
Welcome back to the most professional BROOONZE LEAGUEE HEROOOOOOOOES!
kkkk... MY VOICE... MY SANITY. An increadible broadcast. TY
Please cast more NA games. These were very entertaining.
Thanks winter ❤️
WinterStarcraft still going strong, keep it up brother
Thanks for an American Finals for an American holiday, happy Thanksgiving Winter!
Considering how many "game of the year"s we've had im surprised this wasn't series of the year. I havent seen so much cheese in one place in a while.
I didnt know you casted Silver League games Winter.
One day I hope Winter hires an editor named Jimmy. The back and forth banner would be hysterical
This series is WAY! more entertaining than any Serral or Maru game. I almost died laughing.🤣
Game so wild winter dropped the f bomb whooaaaa love ur vids man
bronze league heroes has come a long way man❤
Happy New Years Winter!
How many shots from the phoenixes does it take to kill a cc?
This is some top tier StarCraft.
Ah, the failed one base proxy into cloaked banshee win true combo.
They really went full NA. Incredible
Haven’t watched a sc2 game in 2 years of played .. miss it so much 😂
Wow favourite series ever!!!
I know you don't angry coach pros but maybe for one particular region you could have an exception. Happy Thanksgiving.
The smackdown was thee best blow for blow I've seen in awhile. These guys aren't playing chess they playing checkers with boxing gloves on.
Astrea woo 💙🥳 thank youuuu ❤
Winter, I have that same t-shirt from Carbot, but in blue!
Another day another finals. Winter casts keep me going❤
Charge air was top strat back in bw.. it's very old
I had a good day brother, hope you are having a good one too. Thanks for the content. TERRAN Power !!!
Happy Thanksgiving Jimmie and winter. Like SC2 i hope you live forever. Thank you!!!
Look at how much the terran can take and keep going. Should have been toast and had no eco.
Now this is what NA starcraft is all about!
For the Conclave! For Aiur!
Good ol' cheese. This'll go great with our meals
Love from Brazil s2
Might just alone here but I can say as far as excitment goes this was much more fun to watch then the other guys. Sorry.
Games like Game 1 are the best type of games. Admittedly a little tired of the long macro games and the 9,117th Dark vs. Clem/Maru/Hero.
After watching Serral, maru, clem etc for so long seeying pro players play like humans, making mistakes worse than " HE WAS MULTITASKING IN 2 PLACES ON MAP SO HE DIDNT SEE BANEDROP"
is refreshing
Best finals to date 🎉
Blink once if you’re safe Jimmie.
I thought this was supposed to be a PvT....I didnt expect to be watching a ZvT.....glad I did tho! :P
Liked and subscribed !
peak NA type shit right here
that was tight
Brasil mentioned 😮
Game 3 worth the watch xD
The cheese is off the charts.
Were those games deonstrations of good game sense and mastery? No. But I must say it's the most fun I've had watching Starcraft in a very long time!
There, comment for the UA-cam gods.
Is it dumb to ask why Kelazhur doen't build a missle turret?
NA really is the clownshow of SC2. i love it.
I was rooting for Astrea because I feel like Khelazur is super hacky
WHAT A GAME!
Watching pro NA SC2 is like sniffing your own farts. Gross, but familiar.
Command Center 1500 Hit Points, Phoenix 5 Damage x 2 Shots = 150 Attacks ?????????????????
- 1 Armor = 166.666666667 Attacks?
Math in SC is difficult!
