A crazy description
Thank you for watching our videos! Subscribe for more StarCraft 2: Legacy of the void highlights. We also upload other content, such as trailers & montages.
StarCraft 2: Legacy of the Void is a standalone expansion pack to the military science fiction real-time strategy game StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty, and the third part of the StarCraft 2 trilogy developed by Blizzard Entertainment. On this channel you will find Starcraft funny moments, micro, highlights, plays and a lot more! starcraft 2 vods
The highlight is basically the entire game, sorry about this! I tried to cut out where I could but there is so much action
Just watch WCS spring this weekend! At twitch.tv/Starcraft
This game is too gouda.
by the gods, epic.
Well you did a great job anyway:D
Your cut was perfect. If the entire game is action pact no need to cut :P
Never apologize about bringing us this golden content!
We both did ton of mistakes, but this kind of game challenge ur adaptation on a fly while u have no time to think, non of us played game like that but i hope there gonna be more games like that on tournaments bcz it's rly fun to watch(even tho i played it)
Its always easy to see the mistakes after but having the ingenuity to create this situation is what requires real skill and intelligence so I thank you for a great game. Easily one of the best games this year. To bad you cant win extra money for crowd excitement like in mma. Knockout of the night bonus! Fight of the night bonus! Cheese of the night bonus! Lets all hope for more creative stuff in the future! SC2 is in a real good state right now with lots of exciting new strategies (other than the immortal). Feels like a moment in meta where creative play really can pay off some times.
I live for amazing moments like these in Starcraft II so thanks for that game! :)
thanks for the show, bly!
So close --- good job and good luck with future cheesing!

*before loading the video* "This better actually be the sickest cheese ever."
*after watching the video* "That was the sickest cheese I've ever seen."
Swiss or cheddar?
*Before finishing watching* "This was not the sickest cheese ever."
*After finishing watching* "That was the sickest play ever after the cheese."
May i have an order of the sickest cheese ever?

@@孙林可 the sickest play after the sickest cheese
I had lost all hope for Neeb at some point but his come back OH MY GOD
weeb
Tbh it felt quite weird. A ZERG that has access to an entire map... and who hasn't secured any source of extra income or researched anything besides tier 1... or whatever it's called - units? I mean... he fought a phoenixes, DTs, prisms and whatnot with... queens, lings and spines. That's it. It's both the most heroic use of the cheap units and also the dumbest. Because somehow a single base could out-develop and outbuild a person, who had map control for over half of the game.
He could even just prism down one probe and start expanding, fully knowing that Bly would have no answer to that. He made the choice of only using the existing units...
@@Wrathinside with what money? youre talking about looking back at the game and changing a decision. in the heat of the moment where you could die at any second, trying to get an expo up would mean not enough money to defend and you lose. it was a weird game in an amazing and wonderful way. games like this dont happen often at the pro level, words dont do this justice
@@rainman4905
He could have just made his second hatchery somewhere else instead of right next to his main base for example
@@PuellaMagiHomuraAkemi he could have, a lot of things were possible. Heat of the moment tho...things got crazy haha
Reads the title: "Yeah, whatever. Just clickbait."
Watches the video: "I stand corrected."
This is what got season 8 should've been
whoa careful db2 could hear you and adapt it into a series and then ruin its finale
Seriously. Well said
@@TucksCave yeah man, still too soon. Our multiple stab wounds are still fresh.
TOO SOON
Man how could you impossible link these 2 things LOL
I'm not a fan of much esports but Starcraft and Starcraft II matches are some of the coolest things to watch. It's like hardcore chess and mind games. I'll never get tired of it. I wonder if we'll see a Starcraft III? Probably in 2035... Jesus christ.
*Neeb almost loses prism* Maynarde “This is terrible for my heart”
@John Doe He can't juggle frontline units out of combat and can't replace them meaning he could lose the fight due to the funneling of the troops on the slope.
He wouldnt have lost. But it wouldve been a draw. Which means a game 4
All he had to do was set up the prism in warm mode or whatever the hell it's called and that never would have happened. Granted, I know it was game 3 of 3 and Neeb is freaking out. lol
hahahahahaha
i have no idea what's going on but i watched till the end anyway
Must be very exciting in its own way despite not understanding some things :) the casters do a decent job of explaining although some don't cater to 'new player' knowledge enough I think. SC is almost like a language I bet it seems crazy complicated to new players sometimes.
Lmao same.
The Zerg player did an all-in rush, to the point of hamstringing their own economy, and the Protoss player only *just* managed to hang on by clever use of defensive mechanics. At the end of the game, both players were completely starved for resources because neither had access to an expansion (the white semicircles on the minimap) that they could afford to use because every single unit of mineral went to military units.
Me either not a clue, but it was entertaining none the less.
@@Whitecroc Thanks for explaining, I never played the game or watch these types of videos, definitely really interested and watching this video was very entertaining. Still didn't know what was going on lol now im going to be watching more vids like this to see if I can get into it :P
That game was absolutely awesome ! This is why we love SC2 :D
Broowar is better.
@@DrZergling there's plenty of bros on bro war
wrg
And there are people saying that sc2 is a boring game to watch... This game was amazing, it was like watching a show with mind blowing plot twists every two minutes
@@joshuahughes9191 I know, but the same can be said about Brood War or any other E-Sports, especially MOBAs that to me remain castrated RTS
These kinds of games are really more of an exception than a rule though.. imo, Starcraft 1 had a lot more games with interesting moments like these, but that's just me :D i love sc2 though!!
@@theSato Fair enough
@@theSato a lot of it down to the skill shining through the crappy game mechanics
It’s the only esport I’ve watched consistently after I’ve gotten into a game
I haven't seen a SC2 match in years. Was not disappointed.
0% clickbait. that was amazing
I never played this game and I now nothing about it, but thank you UA-cam recommendation
Well, it is your lucky day. The game is free 2 play if you dont want to play de campaign, and probably has several features locked for those who have the game ( Last time I played the game was on the HOTS release, like 5 years ago XD), but even for the price the game is 110% worth. Just go to the Battlenet web and try it!
WELCOME TO STARCRAFT!!!!! :D
I remember when I started playing SCII, there was this small tournament called the GameCreds cup. Prize for winning it was 100 bucks, yet every big player would be there every week. Bly won it once and was an absolute noname at the time. He crushed Dimaga, one of the best zerg players at the time, in ZvZ, 3/0. 3 cheese strats. The balls it took to pull that off made me support the guy instantly... I'm not surprised he took part in the greatest SC match ever after witnessing that :')
Give those units some names and you get a better movie than Hollywood delivered the last 10 years
id love to see archons fighting mass zerg instead of all the marvel crap
1917 was an epic piece of cinema if not a good war film.
Tenet is mind blowing if you have a high enough IQ to begin to understand it.
The Gentlemen is truly a gem!
the list goes on.
@@Jafmanz I must be stupid, cause i hated tenet
That's why when anyone says "They wish for Starcraft the movie" I say "No, Hollyweird would butcher it" Just look what they did to the 'new' Mortal Kombat movie if you need evidence of Hollyweird butchering a franchise and insulting the entire Lore.
What a stupid comment!
I never played Starcraft, but it is so damn nice to watch. That level of strategic thinking combined with such a fast pase, beautiful.
pace, but yeah
I haven't played sc2 in years this game was so epic to watch you couldn't write a better script with the plot twists!
Side85Winder ah.....yeah you could. he’s hacking because he recalls without a mothership.....
What ?
Same. This game could single handedly bring me back to playing the game
@@4nakinSkywalker is this a joke?
@@JohnCephas no it’s not. The SC I played in 2016 required that the mothership be next to the units for mass recall
Wow! That was such a great match! Good on Neeb for not giving in when it looked like he was done and Bly was nuts with that hatchery! Great job on both sides, what a sick match!
You can really see why these guys are pros, i play protoss too, but i would have broken down and gg like 25 times during that match.
GG to both players.
woulda thrown my keyboard two
You know what would’ve been great, if Neeb elavatored his probes at the end to nine mins from outside then elevator them back in to make more units
Kyle Calindas I was thinking that too
It would be a lot of effort and attention into very little minerals
Marcin Krocki but he can mine and Bly can’t, at that point I’m pretty sure it’d be worth it
@@KCal25 Disagree. All Neeb had to do at that point was not lose the warp prism and not epically screw up the micro while doing damage to Bly's spines/queens and it was over. Neeb wouldn't want to risk losing an Archon because his Warp Prism was out of position just so he could make maybe 2 units in a couple minutes.
Amazing game - honestly about 90% of pro players would have dipped after the Nexus at the natural went down but Neeb made several sick plays (killing the natural/drones, Prism, DTs and finally trapping the queens with shields) that allowed him to claw it back.
Ah yes, I've done that back in my SCI days
love the enthusiasm of the commentators. i have absolutely no idea what’s going on but this was super entertaining
Their really was no way to shorten this game everything in this video was too critical to cut out great job guys
I haven't watched a sc2 cast in ages. Sweet memory's.. :)
When neeb lost his forward base I thought it was gg, then I looked at the video timeline and saw it's only halfway through. Then I knew SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN SOON!
SC2HL always on time with the best games!
*MATCH START*
Im gonna go build a hive right next to that guy.
When the clickbait title actually delivers. :D
never played a starcraft that much but saw this in my recommended and watched the whole thing
nice
At the end couldn't neeb have long distance mined via prism to the third, that way you force bly to come up to the ramp as you had income coming in
I enjoyed these commentators a lot, they’ve been really into it. Sometimes some other just talk about unrelated stuff, big no no. But these two did a good job!
I tend to use a lot of strategies like Bly which often result in scrappy base trades. I've found if you're going to follow up with a natural, you might as well pick a different base. If Bly expanded at 6 oclock instead of going for his natural, he wins.
For me, the greatest Starcraft 2 match of all time is Scarlett vs Bomber. Those burrowed banelings...
Do you remeber Nestea vs sCfOu?? AMAZING banes there. One of the best games ever. ua-cam.com/video/vx9zGvYYm4g/v-deo.html
that sneaky unit ferry to the low ground into recalling all his units back to his main was actually such a genius play.
1. Shield batteries need to go down before units despite what every cell in your body tells you. (there's pretty much no way to out dps 5-7 shield batteries worth of healing)
2. I'm not in the position of the zerg so I don't fully know the value of his larvae in this game, but it felt as though if he made 1 drone for every 6 lings, he'd eventually have enough to start an expansion to mine from even during the constant attack.
Woooow talk about never give up never surrender
Swear by Graptor's hammer...
@@Dimiurgi Galaxy Quest yeah ! ;)
@@Ezekielepharcelis :)
Those DT's were an absolute game changer!!!
the fact that he was able to get a temple up while under siege and also attacking intermittently must have been so draining mentally.... Bly did not anticipate the DTs until it was too late... that was such a HUGE turning point.
“Walk of shame” had me rolling :D
I salute RTS players really. Not all gamers have brain cells that fast.
Neebs: We should protect our base, no matter what it comes. We should fight on the landing ground. We should fight in the field. WE SHOULD NEVER SURRENDER!!!
Neeb: Oh? You're aproaching me? Instead of running away you're coming right to me?
that was with out question the greatest starcraft 2 game ive ever seen by far and ive seen a few
this is just sad mate
I see things moving. That's great
Thank you so much for this highlight! Amazing game.
Thanks SC2HL for bringing this. Didn't watch SC2 for a long time, but your highlights brought back the attention. That play of Neeb, tricking the base race was genius. Maybe a 1 out of 1000 or even 10k games. GG to both and the casters.
10:49 my inner lesser protoss screamed in rage, my terran inner laughted a lot
I was dubious about the title but, this is indeed one of the greatest games of SC2 I´ve seen.
This is totally the definition of, "They had us in the first half"
Always come back to watch this every now and then. The most entertaining game ever played without a doubt.
Warp prism in the right hands is one of the best units in sc2, and this game proves me right.
Allows the toss player to bring damaged units to the back of the army. If he losses the warp prism, there could be a chance that queen heal + spines and a good surround will win vs neebs' army.
This reminds me of the 2 immortals and warp prism plays, defeating entire armies.
first time playing SC2: Warp prism , meh only act as mobile pylon + MedVac
After couple of games : Sh*t my precious prism died
And the guardians..
yea im glad I know how to prism juggle , it did take me awhile to learn it :) , I sometimes ladder every now n then to not get rusty on it :)
Holy Guacamole. Neeb's confidence and understanding of the game are immense!
I love how the commentators were startled by Need about to loose his prism, like quasi-heart attack x)
that was the last warp prism, lossing it would not allow to micro anymore and could loose the game for Neeb ;)
@@Skorpion1991
He was still mining a little and had his robo so he could have made another one. Still, losing that would have been massive.
@8:36 “ahh high ground”
Obi Wan: “I see you are a man of culture as well”
*Watches while replaying campaign on easy or medium at a stretch for the billionth time* Bretty gud
rel
Oh man...that was so tense. And their decision-making on the fly was so impressive
This was so much fun to watch. Never thought it would end this way.
Anyone else watch these sometimes, even though they have no idea what's going on and have never played?
Same
I have no idea how I got here or what I'm watching but it is pretty intense. Looks like a game I could get into watching but not playing lol.
Proxy hatch cheese + base trade + dark templars + come back = epic StarCraft
Zerg definitely should've set up another base or two while Protoss was cornered.
Bly never got over 160 minerals, was using everything just to keep Neeb pinned.
The problem is that Zerg needs to be at least +1 base vs Protoss early, and past midgame more like +2 bases to win. Bly never had Neeb far enough behind that he could just stop pressuring to build eco - if he had tried to switch he likely would have just ended up getting counterattacked after Neeb cleans up his unsupported all in or he would have just ended up basically on even (at best) economical terms with a Protoss - that's never a winning scenario for Zerg. He was also behind in tech which is a huge problem for ZvP - you really need those tech units like infestors/corruptors/ravagers to deal with post CC units from Protoss.
This game just emphasises how very OP Queens are at the moment
I think it also does a fine job in showcasing how OP warp prism is :p
"I have a super cool cheese video"
No i am not interest....
"A ZERG CHEESE"
You got my attention
I didn’t understand a word of this. But even I know this might be the best 18 and a half minutes of gaming.
That was SO COOL! I was rooting for Bly just because of how cool it was! I wish stuff like this works for often so we see it more. Macro games are nice too but its nice to have a bit of variety.
The micro is incredible
that was evacuation of Aiure :D
And the retake on the same game lmao
Cheese? Yes. Match? No. Scarlett v Bomber at the RBB was the greatest bar none no contest. This was a great match though I loved it
This game subverted so many of my expectations.
my heart legit stopped when i saw like 4 spores lock onto that warp prisim
5:50 that's what I thought a minute ago. The creep is the biggest threat
he really should expanded so that lings can move faster and the rebuilding is impossible
*IF BLY USED MORE CREEP!!*
Upper ground vision with tumors = GG.
Okay, this wasn't a bait title. This video kept me at the edge of my seat the entire time.
came here expecting clickbait. but damn as far as "when cheese fails" goes, this was pretty damn epic
It becomes a life lesson:
1.NEVER GIVE UP EVEN YOU THINK YOU WILL LOSE！！
2.THERE IS ALWAYS A CHANCE， TINY, BUT ALWAYS WORTH CATCHING!
3. No matter how tough & Strong the enemy looks, they will make mistake.
4.We can attack from the front, but we can also attack from the back. also, we can also attack from the side which the enemy never thinks about.
5.Using all the power we have, all the potentials, all the functions, all the possibilities!
I wish all of us can take the wisdom from this game. It beyond the game, it is how we face the struggle and how we WIN.
Good luck folks, love you guys.
This is such a hilarious/ intense game. I can't even believe these kinds of all-ins appears on the pro scene. Maybe I don't watch enough games :P
Small thing you can do if your opponent just can't be attacked and refuses to move. You can take your prism and mine with probes, and bring them back. It's painfully slow, but still technically mining.
I don’t have a clue what’s going on here but it was awesome
Once a wise man said "in the midst of chaos there is also opportunity"
Neeb apply this perfectly
When i was younger i saw my cousin playing this and never cared till now.... i wanna play this so bad
never too late to pick it up
just got back playing SC2 a few days ago then I saw this! Man this game is just insane!
*The Greatest Starcraft 2 Match Ever*
Oh come on now that must be an exagger-
*No Terran*
...Go on.
The title is correct. What an awesome game, well played by both sides.
Darn, Bly pulling back from the recall with all the zerglings, leaving the queens to die was the game losing factor. That army probably could have won against the recall and even if it didn't there wouldn't have been enough left to push but all the queens wouldn't have died for free.
That and not assuming DTs would be coming at some point. He had so much time to just build a single safety spore crawler at Neeb's natural when he started building a hatch there. They're cheap. There was no reason not to have one when that's one of the few ways to instantly lose a game.
DT's being unbeatable units was actually the game losing factor. Without the DTs doing insane dmg, the hatchery would've finished and neeb would've run out of resources while bly could have built up. DTs being so high DPS is kinda silly actually. Only other unit that can attack while invis is lurkers (banshees run out of energy).
@@asdfasdf-mn8iu Terran speaking here. DT's have to walk, are very fragile and costly, which makes them ah-oh-kay in my book of balanced things. With banshees even if you have detection it's not that easy to get rid of them if you're lacking air-air attacks and lurkers outdps everything just because of splash.
@@FullMetalGladiator Nah, Lurkers lose badly to archons and immortals, frankly well-managed zealots alone are enough to take them out.
DTs can hit pretty early, i'd say way earlier than lurkers and can also kill your integral structures easier because they're invis while moving and have higher single-target-DPS. They are a unit that can instantly lose you the game if you have no detection. I was never fond of such units because i don't really see the point of being punished that harshly for a rather simple mistake.
@@asdfasdf-mn8iu DTs are not an unbeatable unit. Like I said: Bly had plenty of time to get one spore up at that natural, which is all he would've needed; the five spine crawlers he had would've nearly insta-gibbed any DT that got into range if he'd had detection up in advance.
DT dps isn't what made that a game-losing oversight, their stealth is. Having absolutely zero detection in place when he already had the capacity to build it was a huge error.
Bly made a lot of mistakes here:
1: The scouting. He should've seen the twilight council or dark shrine coming.
2: Even if he didn't, he should've made a spore sooner, just in case.
3: As soon as he killed that probe he should've taken his natural.
4: When there was that little "base trade" he should've gone straight for the nexus.
5: If he'd made it up that ramp with the creep sooner (he had a lot of time to do it) it would have denied a lot of buildings, saved those queens that died and it would have given vision of everything.
Of course I'm no sc2 expert, even less of a professional player, but it is my apreciation, it was so frustrating seeing him lose when he should have won.
The only way he could have scouted the Shrine was by sending an Overlord over top of all those Stalkers and hope that it would have scouted something useful before it was killed. Even if he had directed the Overlord to come in from one of the sides, the risk of it getting killed by a Stalker was pretty high regardless. And since he was already running low on resources, building a Spore would have been a waste of minerals that could have been used for something else if Neeb hadn't actually went for some DTs. And at the time he killed the probe in the natural he didn't have enough resources banked to immediately go into a Hatchery, and it was those lack of minerals that probably cost him most of the game. He spent so much hoping to win with this cheese that he pretty much sacrificed everything. And then when Neeb didn't fall like expected Bly was in a situation where he had nothing left to give.
Basically impossible for him to scout the Dark Shrine. He should have made an insurance spore, but it's very easy to make mistakes even at the highest level of play in games like these where both players are just ad-libbing.
3: He thought the better play was using those minerals (he barely held any minerals all game) to keep pressuring Neeb. In reality, that's not at all a bad assumption - Neeb had to make several clutch plays just to NOT die. Holding those minerals means less spines, less zerglings to pressure buildings and stalkers at the natural, etc. A push like Bly's is on a knife edge - if you're even a few units short, your push gets cleaned up before you can make more units. Also, it was a macro heavy push - you're going to miss stuff like that.
4: He's in a pretty bad position because of recall when it comes to the base trade. He may have thought the recall was coming earlier and didn't think he had time to get the nexus.
5: Massive risk for a queen to put a creep tumor that close though - sentry shields will instantly punish bad positioning and his queens are basically the most valuable unit for that entire push. Even if he does get a tumor down Neeb gets a cyber core and could have built an observer.
that was possibly one of the best cheese games i've seen thanks for the vid! :D
Holy shit. This is the "You had to be there" of the SC2
He could have also used the prism to mine lol
I had the same idea. Shield wall off and use prism to extra long mining. Then set another base far away
mind blow plan it over 9000 intellegent lol
ive actually seen that a few times in pro games, it was awesome
I thought the same thing just secure your ramp with units long distance mine even if it’s with two probs and an archon, Zerg can never afford to split his army. If he over splits his buildings are done and if he undersplits a surprise archon in the prism wins the game. Would have taken a while but really it was a slightly safer battle of attrition that he could afford to play
That's taxing on APM though, since he's in the defensive.
Wow! That was even crazier than I thought it would be from the thumbnail.
That was the most entertaining match I've ever seen 😄
That game was absolutely sick.
I watched this earlier, for any normal player it should give up when second base fall, but not neeb, he turns it around, what a legend
The micro in this game... it's fucking mind-blowing lol. Neeb's winning move alone, just like.. capturing the queens with the forcefields because they took ONE step too close lol. So impressive.
WOW!!!! GO PROTOSS !!! after all that pressure in the end it was worth it
what a come back!!!!!!! that was epic if not the best match ive seen on sc2!
It's 2019 and "When behind, Dark Shrine" still works
Me: time to sleep
UA-cam: check out this gameplay from a game you've played once before
Me: yes, please give me more
Same thing happened to me and now I'm also downloading the game again
Nail biting all the time. Enjoyed every minute of it when watched it live
I have no idea what I just watched, but it was awesome
Need could’ve used the warp prism to drop 8 drones at his 3rd mine pick em back up and continue if he had to
i played on the ladder years ago, made it to diamond before i quit cuz it was too stressful, but i'm glad it gave me enough knowledge of the game and units to really appreciate what's going on here. always loved playing the noble protoss - glad he pulled it out.
I only played this game when I was like 14 or 16 and only play pve or story mode. I know this is very hard and also a good game
I feel like taking that 1 probe he had watching Bly's natural, and building a nexus in the top left corner of the map and started mining from it, and just played super safe with his army, would have made this a quick, easy game for Neeb.
