First step: broodlord ""rush"" Second step: wait till your oponent overreact with too many corruptors Third step: ling-flood and win 7000IQ build order
WHile it wasnt PvP i was playing Co-op the other day and some guy joined a brutal match went for a 1400 mineral FULL BASE just waited till 1400 then built a bunch of pylons and structures, then pushed all the upgrades on the units and i mean all of them, then decided to build units, and proceeded to All army hotkey to the final objective at 20 minutes with 9 Dark Templar and 3 void rays haha Fully upgraded at least as vorazun xD the worst part was he would click on each structure and build a single unit at a time and did this thru the upgrades as well it was kinda funny to watch that replay.
Incidentally, I am wearing a lab coat while watching this video. It may have protected me from physical damage, but the emotional damage will linger for weeks to come. Also, I didn't know that you could automatically have the banes unburrowed. I learned something new today!
I would love if Lowko made this a series. I stopped playing sc2 when lotv came out, was playing a lot during hots and really enjoyed Husky's "bronze league heroes" series back then. Recently started playing again and watching all these pro-game commentaries has helped me a lot but these bronze league games are amazing 😂
Anyone here remember FUNDAY MONDAY from Day[9]? I can't imagine how much work that was on his (the creators) part, but I thoroughly enjoyed the crazy shananigans that spawned. I'd love to see something like that adopted.
Imo the pylon blocks in the end were brilliant. He knew he doesn't have the control to manage individual units navigating all over the map, so queued the probe to block the bases. That's problem solving.
Thank you Lowko! After a couple of very frustrating work days this week some viewer submitted games with Lowko brand sass was just what I needed! Made my week a lot better!
I don't have SC2 replays to send, but I have replays from a SC BW tournament I recently had with my brothers. For reference, no one in the tournament has played sc2 in over 2 years and no has played SC1 in over a decade.
"Both of these guys are now playing SimCity" lol. that for sure has been the match with the most hilarious commentary by you that I have seen so far. laughing my ass of ;) lots of fun watching your replays. love your style Lowko!
Much respect to GGman... pulling out the good old macro hatcheries... don't see macro hatches too often. Also those baneling "mine fields"... genius! Then goes on to pull the biggest big brain 5million IQ move... mass brood lords so the opponent goes full sky zerg, while losing the broods snipe the spawning pool. Then on the back of this attack absolutely... zerg... the opponent with ground units... ggman playing some big brained plays there...
No games sadly, but I am determined to play five ladder matches for every Lowko cast that I watch. So far, I need a lot of catching up to do, but I am getting there. Maybe one day I will be in low gold!
Aaahahaha Lowko... "ants are pretty cool I like ants" and I was JUST thinking I need to comment about AntsCanada but then you name drop AntsCanada... and I agree, I was never really into ants any more then a typical kid was. Then years later I found AntsCanada and now after years of watching I have a new view of ants. I'm kinda surprised but then again it makes sense that you would be into Ants, you are a Zerg player after all xD
Hi i'm friends with the protoss player skymarch, this is in fact a bug, this is actually his promotion match into Platinum. The MMR is around 2600. I was the one to recommend this replay.
I want Winter's opinion on using "BLH". Uh, sir, did you two have a talk? Maybe he can use some of your arrows as click bait and you can use BLH? Did you 1v1 him for it? Or does he not actually own BLH as a term? Do you not own arrows on SC2 thumbnails? Why crossovers, so many questions. Love the content, best RTS so far.
Can confirm the leagues are a bit weird for the time being. I was Gold last league, but now I'm Bronze- yet I get games against Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum and they're all equally difficult opponents.
Skymarch is the real bronze here, 16 minutes and all he has made is zealots..... while my guy Yak constantly stayed in the game expanding and doing stuff, I think with some coaching he can definitely get gold
Honestly, the mirror match that I see the most people complain about and that they really hate is TvT. I personally hate PvP the most (it's also 80-90% of matches I get when I play Protoss on the ladder...) since it's either got more cheese than a fondue restaurant, or it's a painful, slow turtle-up into a race to carrier and tempest critical mass
Yak descended the throne and decided "welp, i am bronze league right? might as well do every bronze league protoss' favorite move; *c a n n o n r u s h* "
I like how there is so many great plays to talk about in these games - Lowko completely ignores the fact 4 queens are injecting the 1 hatchery whilst there are no other queens on any other hatch. Seems like some standard play to me :)
And kittens really get you because no one is allergic to kittens. And you think "Oh great, I'm not allergic to this one!". But you are. Just not right now.
bronze league heroes is so much better than pro. pros bounce back and forth until someone just out mines someone 75% of the time. bronzies baby, they're great to watch.
Everything is possible in bronze league. There is a wide range of players. I was recently promoted to silver (after loosing like 5 battles in a row lol) and the games got much easier.
The leagues seems weird right now tbh. I play on European server, and I have around 2800 MMR on Zerg, Terran and Protoss. with zerg I am bronze 2, with Terran bronze 1 and with protoss platinum 1. And I regurarly face up opponents with 100-120 APM in Bronze (mine is mostly around 80)
Wait, why is Skymarch mining gas at all ? When I started playing SC2 after Brood War I didn't use Warp Gates because I was so used to normal Gateways, seems like Skymarch doesn't like them either.
First step: broodlord ""rush""
Second step: wait till your oponent overreact with too many corruptors
Third step: ling-flood and win
7000IQ build order
also kill their sources of ground units (spawning pool, baneling nest)
Absolutely a nail-biting Warcraft 3 mode!! The ghouls and crypt fiends looked so sick!
4:25 I like how you just assume that everybody uses hotkeys. Some players in Bronze league don't even use the keyboard at all.
One hand on the mouse, the other hand down the pants. Big brain
WHile it wasnt PvP i was playing Co-op the other day and some guy joined a brutal match went for a 1400 mineral FULL BASE just waited till 1400 then built a bunch of pylons and structures, then pushed all the upgrades on the units and i mean all of them, then decided to build units, and proceeded to All army hotkey to the final objective at 20 minutes with 9 Dark Templar and 3 void rays haha Fully upgraded at least as vorazun xD the worst part was he would click on each structure and build a single unit at a time and did this thru the upgrades as well it was kinda funny to watch that replay.

thats because the lab coat give defense no magic resist, emotional damage is always magic damage :)
What I would really need is an excellent case for my phone that would prevent it from violently crashing into the wall every minute
Lowko fluently pronouncing ""samkrmr" is music to my ears. 10/10 caster right there!
These games look so fun! Maybe this is the way to enjoy starcraft after all
i love these viewer games they are so entertaining along with lowko
I would love if Lowko made this a series. I stopped playing sc2 when lotv came out, was playing a lot during hots and really enjoyed Husky's "bronze league heroes" series back then. Recently started playing again and watching all these pro-game commentaries has helped me a lot but these bronze league games are amazing 😂
Oh God this takes me back
Lowko basically does have this as a series but calls them (viewer games) since bronze league is a lot smaller than it used to be
Anyone here remember FUNDAY MONDAY from Day[9]? I can't imagine how much work that was on his (the creators) part, but I thoroughly enjoyed the crazy shananigans that spawned. I'd love to see something like that adopted.
Winter still does some great BLH now and then, if you're looking for more top tier cringe :)
Imo the pylon blocks in the end were brilliant. He knew he doesn't have the control to manage individual units navigating all over the map, so queued the probe to block the bases. That's problem solving.
30:45 A trapdoor spider. He's not burrowing to hide or search for food. He's burrowing to entrap his prey.
I love the bronze league and viewer submitted, you get such random weirdness every time... and Lowko, your reactions make it that much better
Thank you Lowko! After a couple of very frustrating work days this week some viewer submitted games with Lowko brand sass was just what I needed! Made my week a lot better!
The pizza cutter drones are maybe the cutest thing of SC2. GGman is 100% a true zerg of culture.
Ggman, ahh the old broodlord fake into zerglings you master.
lowko during the enitre first match: "this is not warcraft 3"
me: "this is not warcraft in space!.... It's much more sophisticated"
I don't have SC2 replays to send, but I have replays from a SC BW tournament I recently had with my brothers. For reference, no one in the tournament has played sc2 in over 2 years and no has played SC1 in over a decade.
I love watching viewer games, give us more! These are so fun to watch.
>Did not start the video by shouting "Welcome back... To Brooooooonze Leeeeeeague Heeeeeroooooes".
That's it! I'm Team Winter now!
I have been waiting for you to realize the brutelords sniped the spawning pool, and ggman proceeded to overwhelm their opponent on the ground.
Bronze League Heroes... Where has Husky gone :( Glad your doing some of these Lowko!
FINALLY. I waited for so long to get another viewer game
I haven't watched any SC2 videos in a decade, so it's funny you said a 14 hive because that was the strat i remember
"Both of these guys are now playing SimCity" lol. that for sure has been the match with the most hilarious commentary by you that I have seen so far. laughing my ass of ;) lots of fun watching your replays. love your style Lowko!
Sick micro in that first game 😂
Game two actually showed some skills from the blue Zerg, albeit they should have lost at the start 😁
10:45 that music intensifies at the right time
Retaking the main was such a great move, untouched vespene geysers for next to free!
I love your stuff everytime Lowko
Ah yes my favourite caster adding a video just as i refreshed my sub tab, lovely!
Much respect to GGman... pulling out the good old macro hatcheries... don't see macro hatches too often. Also those baneling "mine fields"... genius!

Yes! Ants fan here too! Love the canadian you tube channel
I enjoy this same as pro games, keep adding more games
Man...I really wanted Yak to win.
All micro and no macro, impressive.
31:02 ant-fan here too! 👋
i've got a ridiculously and non-excusably high amount of hours in "empires of the underground", which basically is a ant-RTS
so happy for more bronze league!!
I love how winter influences so much the SC2 jargon
Dude... I hated ants as a pest until I found Ants Canada. His channel is amazing. Glad I'm not the only one.
First game is toooo funny 😆 cool waiting more video like this. Give to you 20 minerals…. 🤣
Beware the zorklings, mortals a harbinger of the true Overmind; samkrrrmrrr
No games sadly, but I am determined to play five ladder matches for every Lowko cast that I watch. So far, I need a lot of catching up to do, but I am getting there. Maybe one day I will be in low gold!
You can rank up fairly quick if you lean a few rushes and timed attacks.
More player submitted games please, these were insanely dumb matches and I loved them.
Rush is always best, so your enemy cannot attack you. 💥💥💥💥
Aaahahaha Lowko... "ants are pretty cool I like ants" and I was JUST thinking I need to comment about AntsCanada but then you name drop AntsCanada... and I agree, I was never really into ants any more then a typical kid was.

I'm kinda surprised but then again it makes sense that you would be into Ants, you are a Zerg player after all xD
Noooo way! Ants Canada's my fav ants UA-camr, how in the world...(excitement over the roof)
I like the offensive Cannon defence.

Idk if I'd be advertising that it's a Gold+ level game after Lowko just roasted it :D
@@xitaris5981 it's better than what Lowko gave, it's funny because I texted my friend saying how Lowko did him so dirty
I want Winter's opinion on using "BLH". Uh, sir, did you two have a talk? Maybe he can use some of your arrows as click bait and you can use BLH? Did you 1v1 him for it? Or does he not actually own BLH as a term? Do you not own arrows on SC2 thumbnails? Why crossovers, so many questions.
Love the content, best RTS so far.
As someone who once played muta broodlord, I can shed some light on the choice of mutas: They can shoot air2air in case of other mutas.
Can confirm the leagues are a bit weird for the time being.
I was Gold last league, but now I'm Bronze- yet I get games against Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum and they're all equally difficult opponents.
Yeah I'm normally around plat 3 placed in bronze this season and have played against people in master with lower MMR than me. Something ain't right
I see viewer submitted game and I like before I even watch. I know it will be worth it
Spend 10k banked resources? Skymarch disapproves.
Micro 2 zealots perfectly? Skymarch approves.
I love how Lowko pronounces Sam's name: "Sam-BRRRRRT"
Eating reheated burger and fries in from an air fryer. bronze quality. For a beautiful bronze match xD
well played gents!
That was a wild ride!
Sam going "BEHOOOLD!! MY OVERLORD!!!"
That mix up in the intro though.
one of these days I'm gonna get smoked on the latter and show up here and I will just laugh uncontrollably for the duration of the cast
Lowko! You should cast an Ants Canada video! The A v A matchup is pretty tricky. Mites vs. Ants is pretty imba.
They agreed on a 20 minutes no Cybercore but Yak didn't follow up on it so, at 18 minutes, furious, Skymarch decided to break the agreement too.
Skymarch Zealot Micro was the best part...
Next time my therapist asks about my anxiety ill show him one of these bronze/silver league videos. Im sure he'll understand then
I know this is gonna be fun to watch because not even 5 seconds after player intro and lowko goes what? and heh?
Skymarch is the real bronze here, 16 minutes and all he has made is zealots..... while my guy Yak constantly stayed in the game expanding and doing stuff, I think with some coaching he can definitely get gold
these games make me wanna play again
Aah yes waiting for this so long
Honestly, the mirror match that I see the most people complain about and that they really hate is TvT. I personally hate PvP the most (it's also 80-90% of matches I get when I play Protoss on the ladder...) since it's either got more cheese than a fondue restaurant, or it's a painful, slow turtle-up into a race to carrier and tempest critical mass
Go AntsCanada! I didnt expect that :P
Yak descended the throne and decided "welp, i am bronze league right? might as well do every bronze league protoss' favorite move; *c a n n o n r u s h* "
ah bronze league heroes. it never fails to make me want to go and play SC2
It just hurts my eyes. The protection warning was definitely not overstated.
Lookout, you are hilarious 😂
I missed these
Yehhh yeaaahhh yuhhhh bronze leeg herrooeeesss!
Skymarch is playing 2001 StarCraft
Yak had a probe on skymarchs side the entire time @LowkoTV
I like how there is so many great plays to talk about in these games - Lowko completely ignores the fact 4 queens are injecting the 1 hatchery whilst there are no other queens on any other hatch. Seems like some standard play to me :)
Me sitting here hoping pne of my games is FINALLY cast. Haha
C'mon you gotta say it.... BRONZE LEAGUE HEROOOOES!
And kittens really get you because no one is allergic to kittens. And you think "Oh great, I'm not allergic to this one!". But you are. Just not right now.
bronze league heroes is so much better than pro. pros bounce back and forth until someone just out mines someone 75% of the time. bronzies baby, they're great to watch.
Skymarches strat was a brood war strategy
Have an amazing day and don't forget to smile... "Lowko"
Watching bronze league heros drunk is funny asf 🤣 .... fr
I was laughing so much during this
low league games are the best unless they do turtles or mass endgame units
Nice vid sir. plz mix in more low teir games.
Something I never understood is why everyone compliments yak...he used his probes to fight, lol.
Definitely a lot better than the bronze league players a decade ago lol
That first game was painn
Everything is possible in bronze league. There is a wide range of players. I was recently promoted to silver (after loosing like 5 battles in a row lol) and the games got much easier.
How can you be promoted after losing 5 games?
@@fishroro9719 he meant depromoted
That first match, one of those players was playing on easy mode.
AntsCanada is a good chanel. I have an ant colony as a pet.
The leagues seems weird right now tbh. I play on European server, and I have around 2800 MMR on Zerg, Terran and Protoss. with zerg I am bronze 2, with Terran bronze 1 and with protoss platinum 1. And I regurarly face up opponents with 100-120 APM in Bronze (mine is mostly around 80)
big fan of skymarch, no wonder lowko doesn't have an IQ graph because skymarch would be off the charts
We can live like ants or we can live as a roaches do- the difference is are we working together
Wait, why is Skymarch mining gas at all ?
When I started playing SC2 after Brood War I didn't use Warp Gates because I was so used to normal Gateways, seems like Skymarch doesn't like them either.
I know I wasnt the only one yelling voidray at my monitor in that first game.
you ever take a poop and then your back hurts?
thats where im at.
I was yelling Ants Canada and then you said it! Great minds am I right?
Yak is obviously short for Yakety Sax
