"Are we really going to trust this guy? I mean he's good but he thinks spider mines are people, doesn't that worry you?" "Oh you mean you didn't hear about the invisible allied target dummies he insisted on saving?" "The what."
yeah I'd trust 'em, not a single death among his crew in the starcraft universe? that is literally an active war god at play, Sun Tzu may be famous in our world but in that world that would be the absolute line that would destroy any morale of any force "Commander we are under attack!" "calm down recruit, we are in a heavily fortified position, any force trying to break our lines will take devastatingly high causalities and not even dent our line" "Commander that'd be true for any other person but not him... not his crew" "y-y-you are lying *HE* can't be here I heard he was going up against the Zerg a few systems away!" "he was commander.. he... he has battlecruisers at the front still stained with zerg blood"
I know right? I love that when the objectives are FINALLY switched around, the power levels are also switched haha. I suppose that's the last of the super unique objectives. For once though, that's not said ironically!
the moment he said "there are 5 battlecuisers across the map" I thought I knew what was coming, when he finished the line I had to pause and laugh for at least 2 straight minutes
"Jinara listen. The objective of Dark Skies is super unique. There are seven dominion outposts you need to destroy and there are seven lanes to access them. Each optpost is guarded by a progressively stronger fleet of G's that will reset the mission and come back stronger each time you destroy an outpost or kill one of their units. You also get a mothership but that doesn't really matter because this absolute unit of a gamer will just nuke you to the shadow realm and win with 0 deaths and all doninion outposts alive anyways. Good luck" -Alarak, probably, breaking the 4th wall with Terrazine
This reminds me of "whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold."
Since I haven't seen this commented yet: I'm so proud of you, grant! You finished the video, you overcame your anxiety, you did it! Been watching since WoL deathless, am now a daily Archives watcher and catch streams when I can. No matter what you do, you'll keep being the best RTS content creator.
Hell yeah I agree whole heartedly I don’t catch as many of the archives but I watch them and I love them I’m currently watching their Mass Recall series
There we have it. The end of your journey to beat SC2 without losing a unit. You may have started at "The deathless run guy", but now to me, you're more like "The guy who makes absurd challenge runs and comments them in his very particular style, which never fails to get a laugh out of me". Don't worry about turning that deathless page, from what I've seen in your secondary channel, there's still plenty of content to make on here, and we'll defintely stick around for that. Cheers from France! Now go do Nova Covert Ops with marines only cuz I wanna see you suffer.
@@hades7227 I'd think this goes under the 'unless you must build something else for an objective" exception. is it impossible to defend the base with just marines + required bunker units? (Or keep those units out of combat and send them to buildings all at the same time?)
I feel like Niadrin was a setup for one of these. N:CO was "Terran campaign but kiiiiind of with Heart of the Swarm's progression system" and Niadrin could have ended up "Zerg campaign but kiiiiiiiind of with the Spear of Adun."
11:56 There are 5 Gorgon Battlecruisers around the map- Ah, and each is guarded by a progressively stronger- -each is guarded by a *progressively more pathetic force of allies* . They had us in the first half, not gonna lie.
@@Werelight Original version (which you hear like five times): "I send [these units] to defend. They will die, but the the extraction process will end before the infested can kill the extractor."
It's a shame that NCO is likely to be the last campaign we get, because I thought it was far and away the best blizzard has ever done. Really felt like all the choices were actualyl choices with tons of different combinations that can work with different playstyles. Blizzard, you need to make more Starcraft 2 content so that this guy can keep making videos! Also: 54 68 61 6e 6b 20 79 6f 75 20 66 6f 72 20 6d 61 6b 69 6e 67 20 74 68 69 73 20 76 69 64 65 6f 21
unfortunately Blizzard has gone out of their way to say they will no longer be making any payed-for content for the game, effectively meaning there will not be any more campaigns lol
@@feetfinderguy7044 He's only 20k away from being verified himself, and he actual does quite a bit more views than I do LOL! Gaming content is more popular than educational it seems.

The last piece of the prophecy! Now there is hope! Great video as always! Even thought the deathless run is complete I'll still be coming back to watch any project you might find interesting in the future. Cheers!
Fun fact if they're not your allies in trouble in Paradise if you get nearby their base they give a warning if you go near again they start attacking you
The end of an era. But not the Era of watching your content. You introduced me to Warcraft and Starcraft, and if Blizzard wasn't absolute shit, I would even consider playing them.
As you go through you get upgrade modules from bonus objectives you can put on different units so you can mix and match which unit has which upgrade. Like siege tanks that can place groups of spider mines, ravens that can attack with seeker missiles, cloaking liberators, super stim hellbats, etc.
Like many others, I found your channel with Wings Deathless, and absolutely loved it. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of your main channel videos, and really enjoyed basically everything I've watched on the Archives channel. You never were "That deathless guy" to me Grant, and you still aren't. You've done many other things, and watching you, Jaybarino and Synergy play the Wings 3player Co-Op missions was one of my favorite experiences with watching SC2 content. You will always be more than "that deathless guy". Whatever you keep making next, I am sure we will all enjoy it. Your particular way of challenging yourself, tackling that challenge and commenting on it is just really really great.
So, while waiting for this video for quite a long time, I've been attempting this mission on my own, and I want to say couple of things that might help with beating it deathless. 1. Xanthos is a big, fat dummy that does work like alpha-version of Odin, as it needs to physically turn onto you to attack - so you can actually circle it in a first phase, preventing it from killing your allies and getting precious time to get your economy up and running smoothly. 2. Battlecruisers with 4 laser batteries are actually very nice to straight-push the last notch of a base, as their unrivaled firepower against multiple targets makes it much easier to take most enemies down - but you risk of losing BCs. P.S. I tried Endshpil again myself with the full rule set and what can I say. ATX batteries, while being a very, very risky approach, really helped to not just clear the mission with no losses - but it also prevented any losses from the allies too! Yes, you actually CAN save all outposts and every soldier here. P.P.S. Do not make my mistake - do not use the jetpack armor in this mission. It's good for circling, but it's awful for everything else. and of course - thanks to Giant Grant Games for being such major inspiration to me and thousands of viewers to try something fun and new!
Thank you, GGG. You brought me back to Starcraft with your first deathless run. All these years later, I have only the WoL to show for my success. You sir did a marvel. I hope you have a great holiday season and have a beautiful new year.
the moment he said "there are 5 gorgon battlecuisers across the map" I thought I knew what was coming, when he finished the line I had to pause and laugh for at least 2 straight minutes, that punchline was THE PUNCHLINE ah I'm honestly so glad I found this deathless seires, and it's almost sad to see it come to and end this way but it was a joy seeing you beat it all and bring the boys all home
Hey man, I just wanted to give you a shoutout and thank you. I had stopped playing Starcraft 2 for almost five years before I saw your videos, and these amazing runs convinced me to try the series again, and I ended up having a blast, redoing all the missions I barely remembered, I worked up the courage to play on Hard (instead of Casual), and these runs were a big help for me in actually beating them. They were also so much fun to watch, and are an amazing achievement. I'm excited for anything else you might come up with in the future, and hope you have a happy holidays
It really means a lot to me that you would take the time out of your life to make this great video. It's not the best one you ever made, but that's only because some others were even more awesome. May the rest of your day be wonderful!
Its actually my favourite campaign ! its often long macro oriented mission with (sometime) originals objectives, without being a 30 min BC production into win. Even the hero mission are less boring.
For quite a long time, I didn't think of you as a "deathless guy". When I check your main or secondary channel I ask myself a simple question "what another crazy run idea he had?".
Congrats on finishing the whole game without losing a unit! I'm pretty sure this is the series that introduce me to you and it's been so much fun watching you do all sorts of fun stuff like the co-op campaigns and Twitch Trolls Grant. Looking forwards to more fun content to come! GG
I think I'm one of the minority in that Nova: Covert Ops is honestly one of my favorite campaigns... for the macro missions. Found the no-build stuff kind of boring but I like Nova's terran unit lineup. Great video grant, love your work and look forward to more. :)
Very entertaining video as always! I'm always fascinated by you beating all these challenges; not just the deathless ones. They're all very entertaining to watch and easy to follow with the help of your explanations. And lastly: Thanks Grant, have a wonderful day as well!
This was great to see. I have to say, your work singlehandedly got me interested in playing Starcraft 2, which has very quickly become one of my favorite RTS games. I wish nothing but the best upon you in the future. BTW, thank you for your message in the description.
Amazing. I like not just the dedication and difficulty, but the technical details you had to endure for this run. The game being patched to fix the broken mechanic and figuring out the "4" at the end were extraordinary.
I’d like to thank you for all your hard work for this series, I’ve watched and rewatched the different videos several times. I’ve gotten to the point where I try some of the tricks you have used, like canceling the Terrizine altars to break the Protoss attacks, or using ghosts to kill Kerrigan. While the Deathless SC2 is (likely) over, I look forward to see what you have in store for us.
Love the hexadecimal, speaks to my inner programmer. ;) Also, so glad to finally see this! I consider myself to be fairly decent at StarCraft campaigns, having beaten them all on Brutal fairly early in their releases. However, you do these challenge runs that I could never hope to. Thank you for the great entertainment and congratulations on finishing the SC2 Deathless series! :D Also, I still wanna know: how many Games could a Giant Grant game, if a Giant Grant could game Games?
I have to cope with assembly languages and hexadecimal is a significant part of it, same. Likewise, Grant, you are now free of the burden of "deathless", I enjoyed your archive streams, so horizons are infinite for you.
Wow this is legendary, now this is an avenger level epic! I know you will be doing a lot more of cool stuff, seen ur video about anxiety due to deathless run, don't worry, we will be here And archives content is so cool btw, thanks for all your efforts and content, Grant)
Aaawww, thank you Grant for the description! I enjoyed decoding that :) It might not be the best one, but it is good enough to be enjoyable for sure so dont you worry!
After a few hours, I decoded your message. The videos and challenges you go through are very enjoyable! This one may not have been your best, but it was still really good. I can understand how you went about each mission, but I have no where near the skill you have to execute each strategy. I stopped playing SCII, and Blizzard games in general, but it's content like this that still makes it enjoyable. Also, thanks for the hexcode message. It may have taken me a while, but it was fun to solve. Yeah... I don't get out a lot...
Congrats on finally finishing this video grant! I know how anxiety can fuck with creative output and I'm proud of you for making it past your block. Happy holidays bro.
Grant you are so insanlely good at this game. I struggled so hard just trying to finnish the last mission and you do it with 0 deaths. You mad lad! :D Entertaining as allways, stay safe!
It really means a lot to me that you would take the time out of your day to watch my video. It's not the best one I ever made, but I do hope you enjoy it. May the rest of your day be wonderful!
3:05 - O_o .. I .. never realized that. I had to scribble that hint down. Thank you for providing several wicked clues to deal with the (for me) seemingly unsurmountable obstacles ..
Honestly, you and Jay helped me make my APM go overtime on SC, which helped me on ALL RTS games. This run can help me plan an easier strategy for Nova. I am having a hard time with it, honestly... I am done with it, but I do wish I can finish most of the mission under 30 mins
I am one of those people who actually gave up and stopped asking for it, even though you responded to an old comment I made and said that it was coming. Thank you Grant for the longest edge ever, the release was worth it.
Thank you Grant for Granting this community a brief breath of fresh air and great luck on your future endevours. Also, thank you for telling me that The quick brown 🦊 jumps over 13 lazy 🐶.
For anyone wondering about the numbers in the description, it translates to this : It really means a lot to me that you would take the time out of your day to watch my video. It's not the best one I ever made, but I do hope you enjoy it. May the rest of your day be wonderful!
I never did finish Covert Ops. I was disappointed it wasn't just Nova only missions. So, ah, I'm guessing 13:06 is footage from a failed run, or maybe a different type of run? Thanks for the video, nice to see this series concluded.
Holy shit I never played Covert Ops but that gunblade is totally a FFXiii reference! From calling it Blazefire which is the name of Lightning's starting weapon, to the ability being called Fury of One matching Lightning's ultimate ability Army of One. Man that's cool, I almost never see cool references to that game. I'm always glad when I see other people like it.
I forgot about nova deathless but have been enjoying the archive channel content lol Your age of mythology playthrough on the hardest difficulty was fun to watch, hope you dont feel the pressure to keep outdoing yourself with insane challenges now that nova deathless is over
I took time out of my day to watch your video, It might not have been the best one you ever made, but i enjoyed the video nevertheless. it was a nice end to a wonderful day! thank you grant :3

I'm sure those four invisible units are very grateful for being saved.
As an invisible unit, I can confirm.
As the second invisible unit, I can confirm.
As an Invisible 3rd unit. I was wondering when Nova Can save us from this timeloop death.
takes a Ghost to save a Ghost
This comment section just gave me the strength I need it to keep with my day, ty guys
"Jinara listen. The objective of Dark Skies is super unique. There are seven dominion outposts you need to destroy and there are seven lanes to access them. Each optpost is guarded by a progressively stronger fleet of G's that will reset the mission and come back stronger each time you destroy an outpost or kill one of their units. You also get a mothership but that doesn't really matter because this absolute unit of a gamer will just nuke you to the shadow realm and win with 0 deaths and all doninion outposts alive anyways. Good luck"

It is really sad Blizzard didn't make any more of these. A Stukov or Dehaka one would have been so cool!
they promised us more, but they lied, instead they just put out war chests.
Money Talks and Nova Covert Ops didnt sell enough. So ye... they planned more but Big Daddy ActiBlizz said noooo.
Blizzard is basically dead as a company, it's been consumed by activision and SC2 is abandoned. Which is very unfortunate
I feel like Niadrin was a setup for one of these. N:CO was "Terran campaign but kiiiiind of with Heart of the Swarm's progression system" and Niadrin could have ended up "Zerg campaign but kiiiiiiiind of with the Spear of Adun."

They're all very entertaining to watch and easy to follow with the help of your explanations.
And lastly: Thanks Grant, have a wonderful day as well!
"Nova: Covert Ops is the only champaign where the Protoss are reliably threatening."
Real Scale Champaigns Protoss: Are we a joke to you?
This was great to see. I have to say, your work singlehandedly got me interested in playing Starcraft 2, which has very quickly become one of my favorite RTS games. I wish nothing but the best upon you in the future.
BTW, thank you for your message in the description.
Amazing. I like not just the dedication and difficulty, but the technical details you had to endure for this run. The game being patched to fix the broken mechanic and figuring out the "4" at the end were extraordinary.
"We're invisible dummies! We are meant to be expendable!"
"Not to me."
I’d like to thank you for all your hard work for this series, I’ve watched and rewatched the different videos several times. I’ve gotten to the point where I try some of the tricks you have used, like canceling the Terrizine altars to break the Protoss attacks, or using ghosts to kill Kerrigan. While the Deathless SC2 is (likely) over, I look forward to see what you have in store for us.
Very nicely done, Grant. Really. You always put so much work into these, and it always shows.
Love the hexadecimal, speaks to my inner programmer. ;)
Also, so glad to finally see this! I consider myself to be fairly decent at StarCraft campaigns, having beaten them all on Brutal fairly early in their releases. However, you do these challenge runs that I could never hope to. Thank you for the great entertainment and congratulations on finishing the SC2 Deathless series! :D
Also, I still wanna know: how many Games could a Giant Grant game, if a Giant Grant could game Games?
I have to cope with assembly languages and hexadecimal is a significant part of it, same.
Likewise, Grant, you are now free of the burden of "deathless", I enjoyed your archive streams, so horizons are infinite for you.
It's been one hell of a journey. Can't wait to see what content you have next
What a journey this has been, absolutely amazing work lad.
A bit of casual insanity to make it happen but, something to seriously be proud of.
Brilliant run and knowledge of the games mechanics. Thanks for your time and efforts on a really entertaining and informative video. Cheers.
I hope you make it to GDQ sometime for some RTS speed runs, you deserve the exposure
i really enjoy those dialogs you put on units "hi nova, bye nova, hi nova, bye nova, bye nova :
Sir you are not a hero, you are The Hero. Its always nice to watch your videos.
So this is the end of the single most Lawful Good series i have seen for a stategy game ever.
Damn fine work GGG, damn fine work.
10/10 video finishing a great series. I'm excited for the future of your channel.
Wow this is legendary, now this is an avenger level epic!
I know you will be doing a lot more of cool stuff, seen ur video about anxiety due to deathless run, don't worry, we will be here
And archives content is so cool btw, thanks for all your efforts and content, Grant)
As a Nerd i approve of the use of Hex.
Your videos are so wonderfully "I never thought of that" that they are always enjoyable to watch.
Aaawww, thank you Grant for the description! I enjoyed decoding that :) It might not be the best one, but it is good enough to be enjoyable for sure so dont you worry!
After a few hours, I decoded your message.
The videos and challenges you go through are very enjoyable! This one may not have been your best, but it was still really good.
I can understand how you went about each mission, but I have no where near the skill you have to execute each strategy.
I stopped playing SCII, and Blizzard games in general, but it's content like this that still makes it enjoyable.
Also, thanks for the hexcode message. It may have taken me a while, but it was fun to solve.
Yeah... I don't get out a lot...
Congrats on finally finishing this video grant! I know how anxiety can fuck with creative output and I'm proud of you for making it past your block. Happy holidays bro.
Holy shit, you DID it! Grant pulling through with the MVP upload!
End of a little jurney huh? Dont worry. Whatever content you make I will continue watching. Keep going
13:21 I really like cattlebruisers. They are my favourite capital ships.
The last 4 deaths are a crazy one to find! Great job sir!
Grant you are so insanlely good at this game. I struggled so hard just trying to finnish the last mission and you do it with 0 deaths. You mad lad! :D
Entertaining as allways, stay safe!
It really means a lot to me that you would take the time out of your day to watch my video. It's not the best one I ever made, but I do hope you enjoy it. May the rest of your day be wonderful!
I’ve played Starcraft maybe once in my life yet these videos are always so interesting
Thanks for the content!
3:05 - O_o .. I .. never realized that.
I had to scribble that hint down. Thank you for providing several
wicked clues to deal with the (for me) seemingly unsurmountable
obstacles ..
This has been an awesome series and a well worth the wait finale.
Honestly, you and Jay helped me make my APM go overtime on SC, which helped me on ALL RTS games.
This run can help me plan an easier strategy for Nova. I am having a hard time with it, honestly...
I am done with it, but I do wish I can finish most of the mission under 30 mins
It took me a bit to translate hex code to string but damn that was good feeling that I was correct about ascii table translation
Awesome work... I love SC2 so much and to see what you can do with this game is just wonderful.
The little editing here and there makes the video much more enjoyable
Congratulations Grant, you are the best streamer out there. Keep creating this amazing content.
I’m really proud of you for seeing this through to the end, Grant. Can’t wait to see what you come up with next!
I am one of those people who actually gave up and stopped asking for it, even though you responded to an old comment I made and said that it was coming. Thank you Grant for the longest edge ever, the release was worth it.
Greatly enjoy your videos, Grant. Thank you so much for providing such wonderful entertainment!
love your channel dude! The videos are so fun to watch and the new strategies and techs I learn in every video are so cool :D
And the rest of my day WAS wonderful ^^ Keep up the good work
your videos are amazing, keep up the good work!
Bravo! Take a bow, you've earned it!
Thank you Grant for Granting this community a brief breath of fresh air and great luck on your future endevours.
Also, thank you for telling me that The quick brown 🦊 jumps over 13 lazy 🐶.
May the rest of your day be wonderfull too, thanks for the always fresh content you give us, despite Activision not giving you more
Nice description. Gl to you GGG, i hope you'll be fine.
Happy new year!
After years of work finally we can put this to end thank you for you time and work
Thanks for the video G! It was a good series of deathless runs. Thanks for the effort and thanks for the video!
"They teleport now?"
That's exactly how I felt when I returned to SC2 PvP after years of not touching it
finally, the video we're all waiting for
For anyone wondering about the numbers in the description, it translates to this :
It really means a lot to me that you would take the time out of your day to watch my video. It's not the best one I ever made, but I do hope you enjoy it. May the rest of your day be wonderful!
11:45 You didn't break your rule. You said "except Ji'nara."
The rest of my day was wonderful, thank you grant.
I never did finish Covert Ops. I was disappointed it wasn't just Nova only missions.
So, ah, I'm guessing 13:06 is footage from a failed run, or maybe a different type of run?
Thanks for the video, nice to see this series concluded.
I appreciate the "wwWEeeee" on the jumping siege tank. For some reason it just cracks me up :D
Great job Grant. Awesome as always
Congratulations Grant for finishing the video not everyone of your fans might know what is going on behind the scenes but we are proud of you
Amazing video! I love your work. Can’t wait to see more amazing content
I don't know how to say... But my god! You are so brilliant! I Love your editted Videos so much
Holy shit I never played Covert Ops but that gunblade is totally a FFXiii reference! From calling it Blazefire which is the name of Lightning's starting weapon, to the ability being called Fury of One matching Lightning's ultimate ability Army of One. Man that's cool, I almost never see cool references to that game. I'm always glad when I see other people like it.
Thank you Grant, for everything.
Here's to more!!
“Oh god, a supply depot!” Hahaha thanks for the laugh
I forgot about nova deathless but have been enjoying the archive channel content lol
Your age of mythology playthrough on the hardest difficulty was fun to watch, hope you dont feel the pressure to keep outdoing yourself with insane challenges now that nova deathless is over
Those 4 Target Dumbys are the real heros here, without them we would of never won this fight.
I took time out of my day to watch your video, It might not have been the best one you ever made, but i enjoyed the video nevertheless. it was a nice end to a wonderful day!
thank you grant :3
Love the cryptic message in the description
And the collecton is complete, now waiting for more amazing video concepts from you
Maybe some based on the more hilarious archive challanges ?
