    I like seeing Lowko bloopers. Like the time you went "i skipped the first two minutes because everything is normal" in a game with Scarlett, and you jumped to the not-zerg side to see she had a proxy hatch in the natural that was like 50% complete.

  • @LogicTechno1
    @LogicTechno1 4 місяці тому +4

    31:00 As a Dota player/ Esports enjoyer (way before I started watching SC2), yeah, SC2 was super confusing when i started watching it. References to different timings, costs, tech requirements etc. A lot of that knowledge costs from playing (or watching a lot). Ex. I watched Lowko for YEARS until i learned that scans are visible to both players. ( i thought only the player scanning knew where the scan was or if the terrain was scanning). Or how the micro for SC2 is vs MOBAs. In Dota, to cast an ability on a unit in a shared group, you have to tab between each unit, so it's confusing first seeing a group of 20 stalkers blink at once because it's like "how fast is that guy's repeat rate"?
    That said, an SC2 player would kill micro in any MOBA. If you can handle micro-ing a group of 3 different units (all with their own abilities, like vipers, infestors, with lurkers or something) then you would be a killer Beast Master or Arc Warden player, maybe even Meepo. Going from having to worry about 20 different units to like 2 is crazy. I would love to see Clem micro Lone Druid's bear like he can micro reapers.

    • @Komatik_
      @Komatik_ 4 місяці тому

      I think the difference is that you can learn to understand Starcraft by watching. MOBAs, that's more or less impossible, I think. A main reason for that being that in Starcraft what you see on screen is mostly what you get; in MOBAs there's a million stat-changing things that are not immediately visible or apparent that nevertheless mean the world with how situations play out.

    Thank you lowko for the video.
    FYI,starcraft is about a hundred units with 1 or 2 abilities each, whereas Dota is about choosing 10 ,five in each side, heroes from a150 heroes, each with 4 unique abilities, some passive and some active , and there are no unit controls,just hero controls, and there are a load of items too. Too memorize that is a skill I haven't achieved and I used to play in for 4 years😅

    31:00 imagine getting 700 APM on a single unit with micro, that be League of legends.
    Now imagine doing that with a team trying to synchronize cooldowns.
    And YES, SC2 is as confusing as other e-sports if you never followed the game, or watch lots of series. I had no idea what was going on with anything until SC2 became free to play and i got to learn it.

    Game 1, looking at Clem's 9-o'clock base, I was thinking that a Lurker drop behind the mineral line could do a lot of damage. Very easily accessible from the bottom side of the map.

  • @marctestarossa
    @marctestarossa 3 місяці тому

    In my opinion one of the very few esports that are super fun to watch and easy to understand for people who don't play video games often is Rocket League. It's just the simplest of concepts that everybody knows: there's the ball, there are two teams, the ball needs to go into the other team's goal. every other thing is kind of confusing and there are too many things going on at the same time that the viewer doesn't know the significance of. With RL you just have the one focus point: the ball. And there are things going on on the rest of the pitch, and they're obviously also important, but they're not essential and you can still absolutely understand ingenious plays on the ball when they happen. And everybody loves to watch goals. Everybody understands without a problem who is in the lead, what happens at overtime and the concept of a golden goal.

    • @N0noy1989
      @N0noy1989 4 місяці тому

      That requires drones AND larvae. This isn't like a Terran spamming a ring of turrets. A spore is one less miner or soldier. In high pressure games, like fighting against Clem, the larva is needed for fighting. Also, you have to take into account the APM required. It's so easy to bury a mine compared to clearing it. Pulling a mine is even more insane, with probably only Serral having a high success with it.

    I think it’s easier to understand what’s happening in starcraft than league, bc as a whole there’s less people interacting(two guys fighting in 4 places is easier to understand than 10 interacting in one spot) but parsing *why* the guy who won did so later is now difficult.

    Good Tip: Do things faster ! After some month of totally unsuccessful attempts to get better by working at my STRATEGY it came to my mind, that SC is only in 2nd place a strategy game but 1st place a high tempo performance game. That was the point when I quitted playing it. I was a slow gamer in my 20s (totally untalented in general I can do NOTHING fast in my live and mess up everyhing when I have to do it fast) and then in my 40s it didn't made any sense to try getting faster.
