I don't mind posting longer series like 2h long from time to time. If its on fridays or weekends that would be even better cause i will have time to watch them.
Now we talking. I don't understand why I need this in my life so much.
Would also be good the day before stream highlights - I’m always dying for a cast on those days, at least. Long video day before would give me something to FINish up
I second this comment... those series have always been absolutely amazing!...
No one cares what you think.
I often do physical fitness/stretching/foam rolling and/or folding laundry while watching these casts, and on Winter's best of 5 casts, I just pause and come back to the video later or the next day if I haven't finished it. Some of your fans really do have time for two hours of Lowko!!!!
Hey! I just played my very first 1V1 SC2 game! And I won! I played Terran and opponent Zerg, he tried a Roach push in my Siege tank line….I watched the replay and I could have just destroyed his bases after that but I expanded my bases and maxed out and then I went to one of his expos where he countered my Siege tanks (sieged), thors ans MMM with roaches, paperlisks, mutas and ravengers. He GGd after that encounter. It was a lot of fun and I can’t wait to play next and get a ranking. Thanks for all your videos they really helped me.
Best Regards Nils from Sweden.
Congrats.
Glad your enjoying the game... would love to hear how much you enjoy the TvZ matchup after you’ve played a few hundreds games 😅
@@nathantorrence7973 I will report my findings in a decade or 2! As a grown up I can’t play as much as I would like.
congrats
31:50 that is kinda hilarious. Imagin fighting in a war against creatures that rip you apart, but you almost have to be as afraid of friendly fire too. 1 zergling getting in close to you which you could easly handle but the last thing you hear is incoming siege tank fire.
There's no danger like danger close!
"MMMMAAAARRRRTTTTTTTYYYYYY DONT DOOOOO ZZZZATTTTT !!!"
"IT'S TOOOOOOOOOO LAAAAAATE BOOOOOB, FFFFIIIIIIIIRRREEEE !!!!!!"
That 10 to 20 minutes push from Serral is relentless. It feels like clem playstyle. 3/4 attacks at once every minute... Insane defense from Spirit
Serral tech support be like: *Did you tru turning it on and off but with 600 APM*
I'd love to see Serral pull that Brood targeting strategy that Dark employed in a recent game. I wonder if Serral thinks it isn't a viable strategy or just hasn't tried it?
I feel like if Serral uses it Blizz nerfs it in like a day, because Terran has to stay OP
@@F4c2a lmao I can feel a bit of salt there hahaha. I'm usually a Protoss player but I agree the ghost is slightly too strong
Brilliant game by Spirit.
I wouldn't mind seeing longer casts Lowko. Or you could post a series in multiple videos and just number the games.
Thanks for all the videos you do post. Love your commentary and casts.
Man great job here by spirit. Taking any games off of serral is a feat to always be proud of.
Amazing patience by Spirit. That last engagement I think he was expecting that neural from those infesters.
Once they popped out then he activated the EMP. Beautiful move
I laughed so hard at that paranoid tank target fire on the poor marine
Can't resist a thumbnail like that hahaha. Love to see it!
If Serral only saw how Dark used his Broodlords.... ^^
LOL every time there is a match of Zerg vs Terran the neural parasite of a ghost is always mentioned but I never see it
That celebration of the map mining out is a very American approach
The irony of the Zerg played "sniping" ghosts with his banes was not lost on me :)
Great content as usual Lowko. Much enjoy all the bangers you post, because they are bangers for sure.
Since neither can make anything at the end. Could Spirit have lifted some buildings and went for a base trade when Serral went north? Since Serral couldn't destroy all buildings without fighting the army, he would need to run back to his base and into Spirit's army.
"I think he knows about ctrl-s"
Lowko, my dude... I have been playing SC since it's original launch and I just learned that ctrl-s toggles sound... never fat fingered that hard lol...
Also holy crap, what a game... NOT the ending I had in mind, not at all... just wow!
Serral delivers so many great macro games, never SC2 lategame was so enjoyable to watch!
Yeah, but its getting boring last times
WE REALLY LOVE THE LONG GAMES
Incredible last EMP hhaha
Best game I have seen on this map.
Still waiting for the surprise of the old entro again. "Hello everyone my name is LOWKO!"
SUV : I die for the empire!!!
It feels like there should be a number of simultaneous mass nukes beyond which it is impossible to get your army out of the nuke blasts. I'm just not sure how to set such a thing up.
Spirit never finished mining out his main base out of all places.
I don't get why terran players don't leave a planetary to cover the entrance to the backlines once they get to the point where they're overloaded on ccs. If you're going to lose a cc to the slow response to a tiny drops and runbys, prevention via a couple fortresses would save you a lot
Soooooo close to the 500 000
1:20 You don't have to leave the long videos to Winter. We would love to hear you commentary too.
Your sc2 vids are my goodnight-ritual.
a) longer is better
b) dont skip sundays
It's a rare game that Serral gives up a win.
cant wait for lowko to say "mishrobeal crowd"
Lowko your description said Serarl...
I'm not versus player but just hooked up again sc2 after started playing campaign again after all these years. Common things i noticed from these top players' matches are, inorder to for terran to win again zerg, terran needs to make zerg outspend close to 1.5x and also if terran can stop spreading of creep that is extra extra helpful, and means winning if you can do it right.
2h is ok . I can wath this all day with you comentary.
Would love a 2 hour cast lol
Two hours let’s go!!!!
i just realized there may be some strategy to zergs queueing up a million tumors after some tumors have been cleared- like, why not already have those down?- but in theory, terran has lost a bunch of units, so just-cleared creep tumors actually means a window to plant even more tumors now and by the time terran is ready to go again the "cleared creep" is hardened by 2nd gen creep tumors spread further out from it 🤔
Already down but where?further how
I m missing the big idea i believe
damn i love Serral games!
you are telling me there were 4 more games like this?? Jeees, pls give it to uss!!
LoWko I miss when you say "Don't forget to smile alright"
Lowko: "he's splitting his ghosts.... he make a big IMP... ah no"
Seems like, Spirit is fighting Serral and try to avoid the Lowko castercurse at the same time.
TIL Ctrl-S toggles sound.
can someone check if its the hero siege tank
Spirit had to eliminate both imposters, but when the round concluded the game just kept going, oof.
Drinking Game Idea: Take a shot every time Lowko says "You love to see it".
oh no, Lowko has joined the False Thumbnail club...or youtube is fucking with me.
^thumbnail it showed me was protoss weapons coming in from offscreen on a clump of terran bio and a couple tanks, mostly green re-colored colossus beams meaning the game was not something from a tournament
*Investors & Flippers (house flipper?)
The tip of the top pro player, the map do affect the race match-up. Most of the map is pretty much balance on slightly tilted to certain race. But, STARGAZES layout, is so much favor toward Terran in TVZ especially turtle style terran. At the moment, don't see Zerg can break terran defense in early or mid game easily while terran still can effectively do drop ship harass easily due to the layout. Perhaps Zerg players will figure it out and the meta will change or else it will be always veto by zerg
Top 10!
Hey lowko just wanted to suggest a possible custom campaign to play through if you're considering on doing another one... MindHawk's challenge gauntlet. It is super funny and challenging and I just watched episode 13 on the GGG Archives channel... Don't watch that please lowko because that would be spoilers but... yeah.
En Taro Rames Jaynor!
Im no gaming god but i would have at least liked to see the final battle sort itself out.! it would have been cool!
I'd watch a lowko Sc2 serial game for 2 hours
same :P
Me too
GG
gj spirit.
? Fruitpicker was the one who popularized 3 hatch opening. Wasn't he?
You d maybe get an answer on reddit, i think
Oh no...
15 or so years ago, when I was facing against Zerg AI, I found out that you could right click on the changeling to kill it, Also, if you select your army, the changeling won't be selected.
Spoiler alert:
35 minutes and about 30k mouse clicks later it all came to a single emp. Exciting AF
Maru style
2h long videooooooo!!!!!!!!
even tho dropper lords are trash. its good to see a zerg use them as well as burrow. like F the nydus worm its soo trash. obviously he isnt doing the broodlord stratnat shooting ur own creep/units to throw out the broodlings.
Kinda wondered why though.
This matchup always gives me the feeling if terran plays perfect there is no way that zerg has a chance to win.
Spirit played the map extremely well. His siege tank positions were insane.
Why does Spirit not make a few vikings to hit those broodlords?
Corrupters also thors are better against broodlords
Vikings will straight up die to the Infestor+Viper spell combo.
Top 20
till this day cannot face the fact the graphic design is so goofy
You could you start a game by saying "welcome to a Unprofessional game of Starcraft II
I'm starting to wonder if throwing a bunker onto the pocket base as Terran would be viable. 4 marines in a bunker with attack upgrades would shut down a lot of those zergling drops for 4 supply of marines. Combined with the missile turrets to pick off a couple, it would help a lot, no?
no
A filled bunker with some depot positioning would help...but Adrenal Zerglings tear apart bunkers that aren't being mass repaired even with the Building Armor upgrade. It would kill quite a lot of lings depending on how big the runby wave is, but unless you sim city super hard to make a bunch of artificial chokepoints, it's not going to be enough.
No, they can just fly around it easier because it has less range for 3 times the cost.
ew the new interface. hahaha. I always have to look for way to long to see how many workers, army, ect.
Ghosts are the most broken unit in the entire game: with one EMP they suck up energy of a whole group of units and can one shot snipe units.
As a terran you should always spam ghost production late game.
"you love to see it" ( most spammed expression by Lowko)
I wonder how much mineral is in spirit’s main base that is not mined
ghost snipes instantly kill for 1+k resources in 3 seconds with only a handful of ghost, soo good ;P
also "fungal too good bc cant be dodged, emp same, fungal too good because it can lose you the game in 1 spell, hmm emp?" like ghost man they are no doubt the strongest/most impactful and versitile unit in sc2 to an absurd amount :P
Unit can retreat after being hit from EMP, which only affect spellcaster on Zerg side, but a Fungal hit the group of army is most likely the end of them. If you clump up 14 Infestors together and get energy wiped by EMP all at once, then its more of your problem.
@@tigera6 if you clump up units together and they get Fungal all at once, then its more of your problem.
Bigger issue is that pros have been running units that get sniped. Ultras are the biggest throw. Like I think roaches honestly probably do better than them. The amount of time I’ve said burrow roach is the meta. I just think people don’t understand the micro required to win global as zergs and if they did they would be able to do it as other races by having drops going 24/7 and microing stuff
@@Izik09834 Roach are just bad against Tanks-Bio in lategame, and Ghost still one-shot Ravager as well. But I agree Zerg need to play with a lot more flexibility for their army composition. Commiting heavy onto Ultra/Lurker/BLord arent great against Terran lategame army.
@@tigera6 I think roaches are a good unit when they commit to burrow micro. They get so much additional value for 200 resources and take minimal micro
Why didn’t Serral abuse broodling strategy like Dark, it is a guarantee win for Z late game without much effort
..... Lowko is starting to say it more too, EMP it's total crap... one EMP and GG
Algum br assistindo?
omgg
Kappa
first?
snipe literally counters all zerg late game.... so dumb
@Lowko, a couple of times I've heard you refer to Serral as 'a Finisher' in reference to his country of origin. In the English language you would only ever describe someone as Finnish, as a Finlander, or (most commonly) simply a Finn. Finisher is a different word with a specific meaning. English is hard. Love your content :-)
Serral’s nickname is “The Finisher” which is a nod to his country of origin, but also as a descriptor for his gameplay (taking small advantages and running away with them very quickly).
I dont play this game i instantly knew that you could right click so i kight have 10 apm but i knew something more then you 😎 also sprit had to have A moved on that one marine
He might have killed it on purpose though. To make something else like a ghost.
If it is not a real important game Serral quits early. Glad for the win for Spirit but Serral Cheapens it.
Over a year now I have always said it, ultras throw the game. Useless unit in terms of mobility supply and cash. Broods and lurkers are straight up better
Ultras more or less only exist to cut down HTs against Skytoss comps that are massing Carriers. For literally any other function they're a useless throw unit.
If ultras got that charge burrow attack, they would be amazing.
Ultras have their purpose. Serral wouldn't be able to bust the bases he did without them. They die but they absorb a lot of damage and allow other unities to inflict their damage. Lurkers are mostly useless against good terran pros because of tanks. You can use them, but it is very situational. Broodlords are good, but you lose mobility when you go for them. Serral uses them as a game finisher move when the resources are almost gone. Using them before this hinders your ability to harass because it makes the position of your main army predictable.
@@conelord1984 I strongly disagree still, ultras get countered by ghosts but they get way less value still. Over the last 2 years it’s literally been a throw anytime I’ve seen a high level Zerg go ultras against a Terran. A long run by or going roach burrow is probably better
@@Izik09834 All pros use ultras against positions defended by ghosts. Serral almost ALWAYS uses them and he wins a lot. The seconds you get when the opponent is microing the ghost is enough to allow your other units to inflict a LOT of damage. So you may disagree as much as you want, but you are just wrong.
as it is now i honestly think resources should be unlimited. as it is now it feels extremely unfair and it kinda breaks the game and gameflow when the resources are emptied; in the dumbest way and though it doesn't matter it also feels dumb as fck lore wise that the "planat" would ran out of resources faster than the war could be 'won'
You don't want 3hours + matches happen all the time.
The old map had more resources but after that infamous super long match, they decided to reduce them significantly.
About as Silver league a comment as it gets. SC2 is an RTS - unlimited resources makes a mockery of that.
For have 100k in bank in a 3h game... hell no!!!
Ultralisk fucking suck. Serral lost the game the moment he produced the first Ultra. MAKE ULTRAS GREAT AGAIN !
