Hi! Really enjoyed the cast. I've already seen this series casted by Winter, but I loved the level of play so much I wanted to see it cast by a pro. Might be the first time I've watched one of your casts, and I like how calm and concise your narration is! 30:50 I think the three roaches were meant to hold down the intersection right outside the natural long enough for zerglings and queens to be able to rotate from defending elsewhere or spreading creep. Not really meant to kill the Hellions, but to make Clem hesitate about committing to a run-by since he can't be sure there aren't more roaches deeper in. Plus they dovetailed into him going roaches later over banelings, so they would still be useful later on. 34:35 Bobbing and weaving are terms taken from boxing to refer to moving your head and shoulders up-down (bobbing) and side-to-side (weaving). It's done to make it harder for your opponent to land a punch.
27:30 so the reason why Michelin tire co. Is in charge of restaraunt prestige is because in 1900, michelin wanted ways to sell more tires. So they created a travel guide to europe, and gave popular restataunts in tourist locations star ratings. These travel guides encouraged people to travel further by car, and therefore wear out their tires faster, needing to buy replacement tires more often
22:18 It's those beautiful little extras that Serral makes look simple... That's what makes him one of the GOATs. Such an easy way to force a scan yet maybe three Zergs do it regularly.
he wasnt, z just nerfed soooooo hard that even though clem played like a nub, getting ALL his ghost fungelled again and again and again and again, with ZERO punishment bc the nerfs are so fking wild... seriously mass ghost+lib+few medivac and he easy mode destroyed 300 supply of its counter. how is that not broken as fk while constantly going into traps and getting mass fungelled.... so sad to see clem play so bad in comparison to serral and see how so many years off nerfs has fked the balance completely. serral is god at this, fk bliztard and fk T easy mode constant buffs while all counters are nerfed to crap untill even far worse players can 2 unit the best player in the world by far for YEARS... stupid and aggravating
there literally was an infestor walking through his entire army in his base then setting up behind them and waiting an extra 15 second for the rest off the army, getting perfect engage and still nothing... thats the equvalent to landing a nuke on your opponents army and its the kind off thing we laugh over can happen in low elo games; yet even such insane mistakes and none from serral and clem still wins.. so ridiculess
games 3-4 where crazy, clem is doing great and it is good to see, i hope in the next year we will still see some growth from serral, i cant say if clem learned him and went around the bereaucratic, solved ideas, is it the maps, man sc2 is in a way much more complicated than chess to understand, not in mechanics, but in that there never is clarity
I've tried to use Clem Turtle style on the ladder. It's insane, especially aganist Zerg, but it can also work against Terran. Probably it could work against Protoss but would be extremely hard to pull off. This Kid in strategies and positional play is incredibly good!
game 2 seems to confirm that even Serral has trouble beating widow mines with ling-bane - makes me think that banelings are not a good counter to widow-mines...
I’m Zerg and I don’t consider it bad mannered, it’s just another tool that Terran has, playing the game means using the tools that your race has. That said, I do think that Terran’s hability to mine one corner of the map using the energy from a building in the opposite corner is too powerful. So is being able to instantly spawn a healer for half of their army in any map. In short, I think mule drops should be nerfed, for example by having a max range, a delay before the mule can do anything, or both.
ghost not op mmmhmmmmm... so tired off seeing 500 ghost in late game from Terran against EVERYTHING :P worst design in sc is the ghost. ow and mines and disruptors sigh... all the luck based game upsetters that got added when bliztard just gave up on making it sc1, then they continued right before shutdown... seriously apm hell in 2020+ that's just unacceptable shitty design for an rts -.-
also when a late game army is mass ghost, lib and medivacs and it destroyes 300 supply off its counter before going down; you know the balanced is fked. also imagine if T could land 4+ perfect emp's and get a full engage on protoss and protoss would just laugh it off, the whiiine would be great, but fungal, yer.... it also just makes snipe sooo fking broken... easiest crap to use and ghost counter ALL t2 and t3 units z can built so hard most is just throwing away units for ghost energy... its stupid, but yer so many years off just trying to nerf serral and not caring shit about actually making a fun game... just dumb and here we are, back to easy mode Terran dominance again.. sigh...
Imba map for terran: "This map is good for me because I can split and micro 20 things at once" Imba map for zerg: "This map is good because I take gold on minute 2 then hold down the roach button, F2 and win"
47:57 pure pain that I cannot see Harstem's face during the silence after he says "18 vikings with 4 more on the way" lol.

Does it feel weird watching without hearing Brenda argue with the other Queens or hearing Jimmy get blamed for any caster mistakes? 😂
@@natecw4164 A bit, I like the running jokes Winter has but I think he needs to expand his material so they don't get worn out =P
@@miles8385 I wouldn't bet on it - I watched Winter *years* ago, and those were the jokes even back then.

haha i love the british nydus network at 38:00
Clem improved so crazy last weeks. Its so much fun to see him play.

Such a good read on the lurker drop it could have been a game changer, an incredible series and cast as always (:
I'm a die-hard Serral fan, but am still so happy for Clem. He was godlike in this series.
he wasnt, z just nerfed soooooo hard that even though clem played like a nub, getting ALL his ghost fungelled again and again and again and again, with ZERO punishment bc the nerfs are so fking wild... seriously mass ghost+lib+few medivac and he easy mode destroyed 300 supply of its counter. how is that not broken as fk while constantly going into traps and getting mass fungelled.... so sad to see clem play so bad in comparison to serral and see how so many years off nerfs has fked the balance completely.
serral is god at this, fk bliztard and fk T easy mode constant buffs while all counters are nerfed to crap untill even far worse players can 2 unit the best player in the world by far for YEARS... stupid and aggravating

@@Erebus2075 lmao just gotta balance whine on someone being happy about good players putting on a good show, keep it up
This series was amazing
1:26:18 - 60 kills on that planetary!
i ate heaps prior to watching this and had an epic nap and woke up as it ended but planning to return to it later on. thank you
49:25 couldn't have Clem turned around the air force to win the fight convincingly?
Awesome games.
2nd game was so crazy, both out of this world
Should really put where the game is from in the description
games 3-4 where crazy, clem is doing great and it is good to see, i hope in the next year we will still see some growth from serral, i cant say if clem learned him and went around the bereaucratic, solved ideas, is it the maps, man sc2 is in a way much more complicated than chess to understand, not in mechanics, but in that there never is clarity

is it super bad mannered to mule hammer an opponents mining base? like the last base on game 3
I’m Zerg and I don’t consider it bad mannered, it’s just another tool that Terran has, playing the game means using the tools that your race has. That said, I do think that Terran’s hability to mine one corner of the map using the energy from a building in the opposite corner is too powerful.

That all in in game 1 seems absolutely broken, had it been against anyone but Clem that would have won in the spot
I've been asking for 5 years why terrans didn't just kill overseers
3rd game. Muels are the MVP.
why isn't there a little Harstem cam in the corner? 🥺👉👈
Haha so true of any zerg and terran studying Serral/Clem replays. "hmm so that's not doable in the slightest."
3rd game makes Terran look so imba, especially widow mines
Clem is great, but man do I hate Terran anymore.
Gg gg gg
Cap! o7

Same build same result, as always .
Man you are silver don't say this xD

Terran players and balance whine. Name a more iconic duo
@@Reddisteddigo are you projecting or something? What part of it was about balance?
Not a balance whine, it's the "other races are easier than terran" whine... it's the cousin of the balance whine
typical zerg response on easy mode@@HolyBunny
I wish I could “F2 and move” like Serral, and you probably too.
