Regarding the fog of war, SC2's unit path routing works based on the information that you have as a player, rather than the actual state of the map. So if someone mines it out, your probe will move as if it isn't mined out, until you reveal the fog of war and gain new information about the state of the minerals.
I agree with the sentiment of if it is in the current patch it still can be worth viewing. Even some pre-current-patch vids would be nice at times to show differences that the patch caused. Like go back and watch a game with significant Cyclones from the previous patch and have a new patch game with Cyclones to compare their performance and costs.
Love that we're getting so many Dark casts, he has the most entertaining playstyle... cause you just never know what he'll do. Out of units? Just mind-control your opponents!
I'd say it's relevant as long as it's the same patch too. Time only means that more of less people got the time to see the replay already by themselves or through a different caster :D
I used to get my audio reset aswell. Not sure if this will help, but what i ended up doing to avoid that is disable the devices i dont use so it cannot change from them 😃
The reason the switching happens is that Windows switches devices to the last thing you plugged in, so if one device takes a variable amount of time to initialise you can end up with a semi-random choice of audio device when you boot up. Disabling the device forces the UPnP subsystem to just not load a driver for it, so you won't have that issue. Although I think this is separate to what Lowko was describing, which was the volume level being adjusted after a reboot.
Hi lowko, I don’t know who these people are who require the matches to be “recent’. I for one do not care if they are recent or not, as long as they are great matches with good commentaries! Your input had always been much appreciated as we can learn a lot about the game as we watch.
I think it’s absolutely fine to cast games 2 or 3 weeks old so long as you, as the expert caster, makes apparent to the viewer, and contextualises, the different ebbs and flows in strategies and build orders. Which you always do anyway 😊
I feel like when you cast a game like this, you need to also show what's happening on the other side as well. Like during the first game at the end while the main army fight, I think there wan a baneling or zerg attack in the 4th base.
Keep bringing us the best games! Yes I mainly care that it's on the latest patch. Secondary is trying to do games of serious tournaments (whose results are easily known in the SC2 community) more like within a couple weeks. Regardless, you're an artist and great creator, you do you Lowko!
lolwat, who's so tryhard that they won't watch games that're more than a few days old? I'd watch you cast classic games from the era of the archon toilet. in fact, that'd be a fun series, reminding us of what it was like back then.
Honestly, you are my only source of sc2... i wouldn't even know an update came out unless you released a video saying so. As long as you are making videos in an order that makes sense, i dont care. Ill watch them all anyways.
I'm not plaing starcraft from a while so maybe something is changed. why Astre needs to build a warpgate on the proxy pylon? It's not enoug just the pylon?
I don’t care how old the video is I just look your sc 2 videos I don’t watch all of them but most especially when I’m bored about the depressing world news
This is a prime example of the NEED for Protoss to have Corsairs replacing Pheonix and Disruptors replaced by Reavers!! This would solve the glaring issues that we saw in this game!
@@kanzakierika1428 i would actually just had them and replace Broodlords by Guardians. But there is a NEED to make fungal growth (and psy storm) not hit AIR same goes for neuro parasite!
I'm starting to lose respect for astrea. This quick 3rd is just hoping the opponent will not scout. It's like saying, i can't fight you hand to hand but i will make some sneaky tricks that will put me in great advantage without working so hard

Care to explain why workers will ignore the main ramp with an unscouted full wall off then?
@@admiralmurphy1543it a special feature

Hello everyone, my name is Lowko! *imagine the classic voice*
lets just comment on his vids untill he does it again
Wait when did he stop doing that? I started watching his videos again, and something was just missing
@@caspenknight7464he still do it sometimes
Love his classic intro ! ❤ also, Lowko sounds like Morty (from Rick & Morty) in the second game in 2 instances, had me in stitches 😅
REST IN PEACE PROBIUS❤
He died doing what he loved: Chillin all by himself.
F
You did an amazing job casting bro! Best in the Game
“And welcome back to another match of SC2”

omg Lowko I was gonna make the audio feedback joke and you just pre-empted it immediately good job :D
I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite comment to make for the algorithm. Poor Probius, we knew your warp ins well.

My man Astrea trying to out-chaos Dark
As long as it is *SC2* without BS mods, bots or bronze league. I'll be happy with new vids.
Serral won the World Championship 😂 time for another Zerg nerf, remove neuro parasite and changelings lol
On my regards, as long as the game is fun, it's cool to cast it, even if it's from Wings of Liberty, SPECIALLY if it's from Wings of Liberty
Audio sounds great, Lowko
yeahhh where's hello, Dutch mann
Lol! No worries. I still watch fight night matches from 2015.
After I skip watching these videos for a few weeks, I watch them all back (the ones I missed) even tho they may be 1 month old.
"Marching around for the sake of marching around.. maybe it's good for.." marching around of course

So Lowko is paying real money to bring us the best SC2 games? What a hero ❤
That was a slow death animation at the end but props for trying !

As long as its on the same patch its good by me, it gives you a chance to talk about how the meta is changing and has adapted so its nice.
Man thank you lowko for doing things like that. Because when a day goes by and there is no lowko 💀

In regards to the into, I routinely watch games from any time, even some from previous patches. The way I see it, great games are always relevant
Because of work and life I often just save your new release to watch later, most of your vids I don't watch until days or a week later
I am here to be entertained by LOWKO. I do not care how long a game was. Me and the other viewers are not the same.
will you cover the katowice tournement on your channel?
10:10 Astrea destroyed his own Stalker :)

Replay probably current enough if DTs were in the game when it was recorded (not necessarily in the match)
That newest Windows update messed with my audio to. Was a bit annoying...
As long as my SC2 casts are done by Lowko. I am not fussed how "late" it is
Went down the Winter road ALARMING!!!
I try to keep up, but the same patch is usually good enough because the meta changes woth the patches.
Great job!!!
"Wow Protos is going EXTREME"
"Zerg wins again"
I'm a fan of the same patch crew.
Lowko are you Morty's officiel voice actor ?
"Hello everyone, my name is Lowko!" we miss that
I mean, i still watch your "The zerg... mothership?" Video when I'm bored lol, then i guess i don't have a "too old to watch" thing Lmao

replace viper with defiler too then

Most of us have said this since Wings of Liberty. Zerg would be balanced with Immortals. Hopefully in the next update we get them.
Time don't matter!!! It's important to have protoss in it!! Or to be a mirror matchup...! Or sometimes TvZ... Yea, yk... Just... All of them
Hot take: there is no protoss answer to Sky Zerg. As long as vipers can just pull out carriers/tempests one by one Sky toss just won't cut it
That's not a hot take...
Then add some HTs to FB the vipers
great game!
24:30 f to Probius
As long as the game is entertaining to watch I dont care how old it is, could be an ancient WoL or HotS game for all I care
Shoooot. You could play some videos from 5 years ago and I would probably still watch it. Oh it might be fun to show off some ancient games.
I’ll watch the video as long as it’s a game of StarCraft (optional)
starting the video and i have no idea who that guy is that's taliking cause he did not say his name right at the start ;)
intro?
01:30 def same patch, older patch, old game.
Never understood how neural parasite is supposed to work on pure mechanical units since they don't have brain/body to control
Never understimate the hacking abilities of infestors!
Me still watching casts from 2020 and 21 cause why the F not? always funny to see lowko complain about Void-Rays
R.I.P. Probius
To me I only watch Lowko so its always new and relevant to me... but to be fair most people probably watch more creators.
I don't even look at upload date or the date it's played I'll watch anything sc2. I've even rewatched a few
tfw dark comes back from military as master commander
Do you think Dark can get a waiver to keep that legendary facial hair while he's in the military?
1:10 IMO as long as the player is still alive, its OK
well i am like as long as it is the same game i am gonna watch it
I hate the diva voice line because aren't rocks still minerals?
Astreas micro visibly suffers while he's working on other stuff. I recognize my own fault!
Recent videos are the future ❤
Oh no! Not two weeks old! Ill watch anything from the same patch lol
PCs that stand still in a corner just rot, and rust and shall putrefy.
Probieus was the best of us
En Taro, Probius. F
respect to Probius.
Lets be real Lowko, you never liked Hultraliks Chamber
A game is still relevant if Lowko's commentary was recorded no more than a week prior.
"Why does windows do that?"
Laughs in Linux
laughing 'cos pulseaudio just crashed again, I presume? :P
@@gsuberland I see no reason for this level of escalated violence sir 😅
Rocks and minerals is an actually reference to the difference between terms of rock and mineral

So... Dark will do his military service? When? He's 28 that's really late, we will be 30 when it's over he might not come back to starcraft at all...
This New Talondark guy is pretty good!
Probeus, NOOOO!!!! 😂
The highs are too flat.
Windows is controlled by Terrans!
Purification novas should explode in place when the disruptor is sniped -- changing this mechanic would help a lot PvT, too.
If the game hasn't been played with in the last minute it's to late. Says I the guy watching 7 months after the video is released. :p
I don't care when a video is from. Heck I'd like to see an old indra vid tbh.
Dark number 1
Lol age of video. Guess I'm weird. I'll watch it if I haven't seen it
Where the hell is the ALARMING new Zerg strategy?
Zerg is op
I feel betrayed. I never knew the videos I've been watching for the past few days were THREE WEEKS OLD!! JK Ignorance is bliss. 😁
