The English idiom for "sees the mood hanging" could be "sees the writing on the wall."
Also he sees where the wind is blowing!
@@SanctaCasimir
Do you smell what The Rock is cooking?
He smells what The Rock is cooking.
@@SanctaCasimir ooh thats a good one i also thought of "knows for whom the bell tolls"
Which interestingly enough I believe comes from the Bible in the book of Daniel.
On friday we make the bridge
I think the best translation at 27:00 would be "sees the writing on the wall" but there could be another way to express it.
Another expression I've heard in the same style is "Read the room"
I like see the writing on the wall too.
That’s it!
I was literally just about to write this. Incidentally, this expression comes from the Bible, Book of Daniel.
"Shit is about to hit a fan"
Please do a Dutch cast! Maybe for April fools or something. Would be really cool to hear.
"posted 12seconds ago" nice that this showed up on the homescreen
39:26 that reaper nade was a form of art so beautifull!
That first game! Had me chuckling throughout all of it.
That 'hij ziet de bui al hangen, weet je wel?!' had me unprepared, lmao. I speak fluent Dutch because of Lowko's earlier lessons.
Funny how Serral outsmarted Oliveira by just ignoring his set-upped army and wrecking his undefended base
@27:15 - "seeing which way the wind is blowing" is the best English translation for that I think - thank you @Lowko for all your hard work and love of all things SC2!
Less of an English saying, more of a historical and biblical saying: "He sees the writing on the wall" or "To see the writing on the wall" - comes from the Bible, specifically Belshazzar's Feast.
Short version, at Belshazzar's Feast a hand appeared from nothing and wrote upon the wall, none of Belshazzar's wise men could read it until they sought out Daniel who, while he couldn't read it (I think?) said 'Your father lost everything when he failed to heed God's warnings', and thus the Writing on the wall has become synonymous with portents of doom or ill omens.
So, Olivera definitely saw the writing on the wall which is why he decided back off.
aaaand somebody already said as much as this. Curses!
„I can’t stop thinking about Brenda“
Killed me xD
1. Serral!!! 2. The unexpected "Sjedjehdjedje" caught me unprepared! :D
“It’s time for a best of 5 series”
Me: AWWWW YEAHHH
your story with the queens reminded me of a conversation in Heroes of the Storm where Anbu'arak says to Zagara "nice legs!" and she replies "creep!"
lol thats a good line i almost always played HotS with sound off so i missed it :(
8:13 did not know they could cliff walk
Fly, like a mutalisk or overlord
Hey Lowko,
i have to say, i love your Casts. I learn alot about how the pros are playing and you explaining the strategies and the angle they take helps me alot understand why they do what they do. I love to see some more Viewer Games because it helps me understand where i can improve. Its more relatable...
Always happy to see your Casts, have a nice day
8:00 minutes one of the critters walks into the map from unpathable space outside 😂
Great cast as always! Lovely game by both player GGWP!
“His spidey senses were tingling.”
I feel like the closest translation for "hij ziet de bui al" would be "He saw the writing on the wall".
Great cast Lowko
Hey lowko, the saying is : he sees the writing on wall.
8:15 critter teleported!
greetings from Peru !!!
Love ur videos, mate :)
Hi, Lowko! Happy holidays from Southeast Asia.
"He knows how many units he's about to lose." Ancient Murica saying.
'sees the writing on the wall'
I watch every one of your videos Lowko 🥺🥺
What would it take to change zerg pathing so that they choose paths with creep over paths with not creep? Does alpha star choose creeped paths over non-creeped paths? Shortest path isnt usually the fastest path without creep.
"Sees the writing on the wall" would be a translation faithfull to the meaning of the dutch saying.
I’m pretty sure most gold players can do the same actions that pros do, but what they don’t understand is that the speed and complexity that pros do those actions at makes up something greater than the sum of its parts. It’s not just doing the actions, but doing them quickly and fluidly in a way that makes them vastly more impactful. APM without strategy doesn’t make you good and vice versa, but if you have both, now you’re cooking.
At gold they do the same build while hitting a minute late.
I am currently diamond and its mix. Some people know how to play and are very good but play for fun. Like I could get upgrades play ling bane or I could do 6 minute ultralisks.
Yes, bring on the dutch!
27:05 The translation to English that you're looking for is "he read the room and took a hint"
27:00 See the writing on the wall is the correct translation.
11:46 wait, serral mess up? is this the first time i saw he not cancaling the base? OMG
14:00 I’m gold and I always forget that Ravagers exist
Serral is such an amazing strategist man
lets gooo we might get more dutch sayings in the future c:
An English equivalent of that saying is "Seeing the storm coming".
i watch almost all videos :) sometimes i miss like a month or two tho and i cant manage to catchup
About "Hij ziet de bui al hangen", in Italian there is the equivalent "Ha visto che aria tira", that can be traslated as "He saw how the wind blows" .
I just learned the English equivalent "See the writing on the wall" here in the comments.
Thanks for the education everyone!
"He saw the writing on the wall" seems like the right english equivalent
He can see the writing on the wall.
He sees a bad moon rising. He sees trouble on the way.
An English equivalent to the Dutch saying you said could be "see the writing on the wall", which would certainly translate very funny in Dutch.
Karren used to be able to fly, but now thats history, that was brood war, had me chucklin goofy😂😂
What is that 1-racks proxy pressure Olivera tried in game 1? I thought proxy barracks started at 2 racks. How would that have looked if not scouted? 2 reapers fast in the opponent’s base plus a bunker?
I think he was trying to trick Serral to stop droning and then he would have done the 3rd command centre afterwards to take the macro lead. No way he thought he could win against Serral with that after being spotted
Always got my attention the name of the chinese player "Oliveira", if I'm not mistaken, is a common last name in Brazil, is like when American players put a chinese character as a nickname 😅😅
Lowko having a go at queens and boomer viewers at the same time (game 2)
Yes! Teach me Dutch sayings!!
LOWKO THE TITLE 😭
I think lowko could take serral.
The boomer queens were grounded from flight due to their aging eyesight. 😂
He saw the writing on the wall. Idk why that's an expression but that's sort of what it sounded like you were going for?
hey guys, the video quality looks more cripsy than other videos before. lowko has some new hardware playing with? or is it youtube's own magic at their backend?
If you cheese Serral, Serral will cheese you for punishment.
"see the writing on the wall"
Hey Lowko, do you know when a big rat is pinning down a smaller rat, the big rat needs to intentionally let the smaller rat to win somewhat 30% of the times to keep the smaller rat playing with him.😏
Lowko and coffee for breakfast? Don’t mind if I do.
Still waiting for a pro to 1 base Zerg as a Terran that doesn’t involve BCs. Know it’s dang near impossible once you get to a certain level, but it would be a dream to see.
It's completely impossible with how good every pro is at scouting and defending all ins
Im down for learning a few Dutch sayings. I’ll never use them… except maybe to tease my Dutch friends 😈
Why not go from roach ravenger to hydra lurker? Why go back to ling ban?
How dare the marauders to make Brenda even slower off the creep?! That's so disrespectful!
roach opening make Serral transition to mid-late game ez. it;s quite a good strat vs agrro players like Clem that can easily micro and target fire banelings and such.
@lowkoTV getting old like Brenda, missed the borrowed banelings at 39:25 about 10 minutes in on final match.
Honestly watching all these Serral games makes me think that the other players play themselves, especially Clem in a previous video were we have seen him just go with the reaper and wreck chaos but because he is fighting Serral he takes less risks regardless of Serrals poor positioning or mistakes, I am a firm believer at this point that if you don't tell Serral opponents they are fighting Serral they would consistently win more games instead of playing stupid passive games or not taking risks that win games that they would take with any other player.
What I'm trying to say is that Serral's opponents cover for Serrals mistakes because they are too in their heads instead of playing the game in front of them.
14:22 I could do most of the micro that pros do, (though I’m in diamond, not gold)….. I just would also be losing 3 bases in the meantime and banking 10k 10k.
LowKo eats a COUPLE of boogers for breakfast 🍳
Maybe “he could see the writing on the wall” is an English phrase that might be similar?
See the writing on the wall.
Lowko! You posted that wonderful family photo just days ago! Does your girlfriend know about your obsession with Brenda and Margaret!?!?
we watch every video, i swear
almost anything sounds right in english, it's hard to screw up
Why serral's roach stay in the middle from 12:00 to the end of the combat😅
GG
I know the cast is about the game but I wanna see a Lowko facecam
at the 8:15 ish mark a critter jumps up a cliff
learned blink
Can predict that Zerg wins without even watching the series
I didn't like that transition for Serral in game 2, or the GG out which seemed rather early. He could have pulled out a win if he had had a decent runby while Olivera was trying to push with a half-sized army in the middle.
he sees the bui hangen know you well?
Why do pros keep doing roach ravager I never see it win unless it’s a build order for roaches right at the start
ZvZ game: No way these guys are platinum 😂. I'm Plat 2 and I could beat either of them 3x over in that situation over that amount of time!
lowHot lowHot lowHot
Who is Oliveira again? I dont play and only watch and i Havent watched pro games in a while. Is he a newblood???
He used to be called "Time".
OG...
How about that: you type his name into a search engine and read what appears on your screen 🤔
Chinese Terran player who won the World Championships in early 2023. He used to go by the nickname TIME.
@@Tom-yg7mi Or you could stay quiet if you're going to be an asshole. How about that instead? 🤔
i think Oliveira could try to use more Widowmine, and less tank.
This was preemptively responded to by Serral by the virtue of getting the opening batches of roaches out. Tweaking his composition a little more could've helped moderately, but it wouldn't have been a direct solution. It would've definitely been better against the vipers to try and establish the push, but still leaves Serral response patterns to detonate the widowmines before sending the vipers in with sacrificial Zerglings or tossing biles.
Legit non xenophobic question... Does Olivera train outside of China? I've heard they have strict limits on when and how much one can play videogames.
Pretty sure those limits are for children, and commonly circumvented
@@IExistSometimes thanks, I wasn't sure how that worked (or honestly how old Olivera is... Guess that's probably on Liquipedia)
There is no Chinese server anymore, although it may come back. I believe most Chinese players play on Korea with a vpn.
@@LowkoTV Ah, probably part of the larger spat they're having with Blizzard... Maybe Phil Spencer will help fix that.
@@natecw4164yeah im surprised if anyone hasnt noticed all the chinese names on blizz games in NA servers over the last year, like its pretty noticeable. its also especially annoying when u lose because its like man that guys playing on china ping and beat me? sadge
Lowko you were impressed by that? I'm in Bronze league and can do that.
So Lowko, when are you and Brenda getting married? 😉
How greedy do terrans these day wants to play ?
Yes
😶🌫
Nothing to do against Zerg
It annoys me when I hear "Terran is playing marine-marauder-medivac-mine again"... as if terran was not playing with 90% of the units at their disposal... the real race that tend to mass one unit is Zerg ! Like, make a million zergling-baneling and you're fine !
Lemme guess, Serral wins
Try using a different fake surprised face in your garbage thumbnails.
Oliviera's Social credit score went down after game one.
