You should send this replay to Lowko to cast he loves "crazy" games, maybe he could give your channel a plug since you are one of his favorite Protoss players. This video was gold bro, nice job and rig worked great. BEST video of stupid stuff so far!
I could imagine the Culture war strategies being exactly like this. They're a completely altruistic and highly advanced type 3 civilization, completely passive in terms of aggression, but effective through their sheer superiority in terms of technology. They would do faux strategies like blowing up their own orbitals (ring-shaped planetoids) to avoid actual casualties or as a sign to offensive forces to not advance (no point attacking something already destroyed/evacuated). Meanwhile they would use this time to gather offensive countermeasures, if they had no choice but to counterattack - the end result being similar to the end of the 1st game. The Culture is pretty badass. This challenge is essentially them on default.
Hey man would love to see you do the "Infestor Race Switch" :) play zerg , build 1+ infestors , take over a probe/scv and do a mix build or full switch :D might be impossible on high ranks but it´s definetly Stupid Stuff :D have fun Harstem :)
Challenge: Master of Illusions Make your opponent believe through mass sentry hallucinations that you are going for one tech while you are going for another (e.g. ground army hallucinations while going for skytoss). Don't be scouted. P.S. I love your Dutch humour and your SC2 talent!
God that first game was so satisfying to watch. Cornering the terran army with twice his army supply in stalkers and disruptors, then killing a planetary with a machine gun fire of disruptor novas. *chef's kiss* delightful to watch.
Challenge: The Dancing Queen Whenever your opponent sees you, you have to dance with your units before fighting. For example: if you harass with Oracle, just do a little dance battle before attacking. You can build and do whatever you want, but keep in mind: not all units can dance or cheer. Dancing units are: Zealot (can cheer) Adept Stalker High Templar (can cheer) Colossus Immortal Oracle So be sure, you have enough of these units in every army. If it is too easy, your are only allowed to build dancing units.
I loved that the main challenge for you was not to win the game, but to keep the opponents in the game. Your just playing with the poor guys. Best video of this series so far!
I don't watch many SC UA-camrs, but from the ones that play games I enjoy yours the most, because you voice your thoughts regarding your next steps and stuff. IODIS drew me in (particularly the big SUCK logo in the end) and I'm enjoying every single video you upload, so you ought to know that you're doing a great job. Dunno how fun or viable this will be, but how about limiting your army composition to a theme (like the LotV campaign)? Nerazim: Stalker, DT, Archon, Oracle, Void Ray. Must get Blink, Shadow Stride, and Flux Vanes. Aiur: Zealot, High Templar, Immortal, Archon, Phoenix, Carrier, Mothership. Must get Charge, Psionic Storm, and Anion Pulse Crystals. Purifiers: Adepts and Robotics Facility units only except for Immortals. Must get Glaives and Robotics Bay upgrades. Admittedly this idea was inspired by the Colossus drop into mass Stalkers video, but seeing the second game of that makes me not want to wish such hardship upon you.
Your rant about playing against Serral was... beautiful. I feel a little sad that someone who speaks English as a second language has a much better way to articulate, but mostly I’m just happy I heard it. Keep the great ideas coming!
Challenge: the MAGE The idea is to build only squishy units, nothing tanky. Like sentry + ht + Colossi sounds like a good comp don't you think? Cannons + batteries are allowed too. Also you can build oracles, phoenixes, disruptors, dts (better with blink). Maybe tempests too if it's too hard. By the way, great youtube channel!
This seems like an actual super legit strat... tfw you take massive losses (~60 supply) and STILL have a 140 army supply lol. This is crazy... late game all in lol
this is fun stuff. 200 supply army with some hallucinations seems fun. I lost a 4v4 one time where the last remaining opponent produced screens full of immortals. I had some mutas... you can imagine.
I second the guy saying to send some of the more hilarious replays to eg Lowko! Would be amazing to hear him cast some of the more funny GGMWSS videos :)
The most stupid thing I can come up with is a proxy mothership rush, flying into the enemy's base and just recall all your army. Maybe it's not doable above platinum league whatsoever, but you can try it if you like it :D
All-or-nothing: Can only select army units with F2. You can set rally points for buildings, but once the units are built, you have to select your whole army to give them any orders.
I don't know where to post a suggestion, but I'd love to see a PvZ where you fake a sentry immortal all in with immortal hallucinations and expand to a 3rd (maybe a hidden base?) and go for a normal game from there on. Is this feasible? Thanks for the series, I really enjoy it!
Idea for BGMWSS: Achievement unlocked! Pick a BattleNet achievement that you don't have yet, and make a build based on unlocking that achievement. If it's too easy, pick several achievements per game.
*lol, hardest part of this challenge is trying to stall long enough to kill all your probes. Once you have a a full 200 supply army, it's guaranteed your army will be bigger than the opponent's each and every time. So the final all in is always going to be easy.*
Similar concept, Beasting GMWSS with one full army F2 A move without any micro in the last fight and very little harass early :) love the vids hope you do better in your future comps :)
Try the opposite as Many workers as possible and still win the game everything is aloud but stay on at least 100 120 workers and of course no gamewinning attack before u reach 100 probs
lol this is actuallly a really good strat for pvp and pvt. i dunno how it fares on pvz but i bet it's even better because zerg reeinforcements come from across the map instead of a central hub. pushing with a super deathball would be very effective
don't attack until you get 10k minerals and 5k gas and switch to mass 3/3 chargelot tempest(can be +0) by taking the both unocupied corner bases as hidden ones
I love these stupid build videos. Your control of disruptors is incredible as always, hiding the orb at the top of a ramp / "inside" the disruptor is insane. How do you select the orb so fast??
What's funny is I bet they GG expecting Harstem to still have an economy somehow. If they don't GG, they probably could still win by rebuilding elsewhere in the map Also, this stupid stuff with Terran, you could still mine minerals with Mules.
Can you beat a grandmaster while telling them your strategy? I propose a showmatch vs Lowko (Dronatello) who is another dutch streamer who has recently been promoted to GM. He can ask questions and you tell him your strategy and what you think he's doing.
"I don't think he scouted my dark shrine, that's very unfortunate"
-Harstem
"He definetely going to think i'm an idiot. That makes me happy"
-Harstem 2020

@simposium identicarum *Well he's playing opponents that are much lower than him... so that's why he can crush them even with handicaps.*
And make him guess what the rules are!
Right, but he still loses a significant number of these games which makes them far more entertaining when he wins
I vote Harstem for president! He knows how to win even after his whole economy is dead. :D
He is also a maniac that kills his own workers for entertainment.
@@oguzcanoguz5977 Sacrifices have to be made. :p
@@oguzcanoguz5977 make sure to have a cannon in each base
TO MURDER YOUR OWN PROBES
No Probelem for Harstem.
Me playing: I need to make sure I don't accidentally die.
Harstem playing: I need to make sure he doesn't accidentally die.

You can read this strategy in The Culture: Novel 1 - Consider Phlebas, Chapter 4.
This video is hysterical.
Edit: OH MY GOD 11:43. He has Vikings in Medivacs! I didn't even know that was possible! XD
Syy I noticed that as well! I had to double check to see if he landed them from somewhere but nope! Viking drop.
200IQ Viking drop play right there xD
That is 300IQ drop
"sorry bois" when he disruptored is own probes cracked me up lmaoo
Yoooo same here
10:12 That dodge xD what a legend you are captain
The moment he starts killing his drones. "Execute order 66"
Hey man would love to see you do the "Infestor Race Switch" :) play zerg , build 1+ infestors , take over a probe/scv and do a mix build or full switch :D might be impossible on high ranks but it´s definetly Stupid Stuff :D
have fun Harstem :)
Best challenge ever!!!
Except he is a protoss...
lewis w In ZvP he can make a protoss army
And win a PvP in a ZvP^^
I missed Dark Archon.
Challenge: Master of Illusions
Make your opponent believe through mass sentry hallucinations that you are going for one tech while you are going for another (e.g. ground army hallucinations while going for skytoss). Don't be scouted.
P.S. I love your Dutch humour and your SC2 talent!
This comment section is really creative, and i respect that
A proper master of illusions is the one were you don't actually have an army - you get him to gg to illusions....
@@ulfjohnsen6203 I bet Idra still salty about that
Yeah, you did it, Harstem! Fantastic!
Maybe hallucinate a bunch of void rays to make the opponent leave the game
It's great how you're encouraging your enemy.
This man is just toying with him lol
God that first game was so satisfying to watch. Cornering the terran army with twice his army supply in stalkers and disruptors, then killing a planetary with a machine gun fire of disruptor novas. *chef's kiss* delightful to watch.
"I don't think we can make it... I don't think we can kill all of our workers in time"
THIS.
Biggest flexes in Anime
Challenge:
The Dancing Queen
Whenever your opponent sees you, you have to dance with your units before fighting. For example: if you harass with Oracle, just do a little dance battle before attacking.
You can build and do whatever you want, but keep in mind: not all units can dance or cheer.
Dancing units are:
Zealot (can cheer)
Adept
Stalker
High Templar (can cheer)
Colossus
Immortal
Oracle
So be sure, you have enough of these units in every army.
If it is too easy, your are only allowed to build dancing units.
He can go with mass Immortal as they dance and fight :D
this please
Immortals OP.. Can dance and shoot.. So its EZ Kappa
"This is making my day already" (15:21) - mine too Hartem, mine too
I loved that the main challenge for you was not to win the game, but to keep the opponents in the game. Your just playing with the poor guys. Best video of this series so far!
Sound is much better now, Cap. Well done
"make sure to have cannons in every base to kill your own workers"
This was so epic! Hilarious and impressive at the same time
I don't watch many SC UA-camrs, but from the ones that play games I enjoy yours the most, because you voice your thoughts regarding your next steps and stuff.

I don't know how people keep coming up with these amazing challenges, but I enjoy your execution of them allot. This one was hilarious.
This seems like an actual super legit strat... tfw you take massive losses (~60 supply) and STILL have a 140 army supply lol. This is crazy... late game all in lol
this is fun stuff. 200 supply army with some hallucinations seems fun. I lost a 4v4 one time where the last remaining opponent produced screens full of immortals. I had some mutas... you can imagine.
I love how you manage to play well enough to win, but also poorly enough to make your opponent think that they have a chance!
I second the guy saying to send some of the more hilarious replays to eg Lowko! Would be amazing to hear him cast some of the more funny GGMWSS videos :)
Blink DT's and blink stalkers only roughly 50/50 mix of both, has to be a mix
10:12 about to annihilate half his army, misses intentionally, instantly loses 3 colossi GG Harstem.
honestly one of the funniest things i've seen in a while!
really enjoy your content and it inspires me to play starcraft again
GLHF!
Emperor Harstem: "Execute Order 66"
Photon Cannons and Disruptors: Yes sir.
Probes: Noooo-!
nice 100 supply runby
"He really does believe I'm an idiot", I think terrans always think protoss are idiot xD
I love how much fun you have with this.
Challenge Idea: Your army is composed of only Disruptor and Phoenix.
comment for the algorythm. very fun to watch really. keep up with this series
This Disruptor mirco is killing me. The precision used to make sure he doesn't kill his whole amry into your Disruptors
31:01 that was beautiful man
First game could have been a draw if Terran floated his buildings
The most stupid thing I can come up with is a proxy mothership rush, flying into the enemy's base and just recall all your army. Maybe it's not doable above platinum league whatsoever, but you can try it if you like it :D
I don't play protoss but it is always a pleasure to watch you play because you are a cool guy.
All-or-nothing: Can only select army units with F2. You can set rally points for buildings, but once the units are built, you have to select your whole army to give them any orders.
You crack me up hahaha that first Terran player must have been really confused 😂😂😂
How about a similar one?
The biggest all-in of all time: pull all of your workers to fight
I don't know where to post a suggestion, but I'd love to see a PvZ where you fake a sentry immortal all in with immortal hallucinations and expand to a 3rd (maybe a hidden base?) and go for a normal game from there on. Is this feasible? Thanks for the series, I really enjoy it!
I have never enjoyed watching trolling so much until I found this channel lol. I’m triggered for your opponents
Idea for BGMWSS: Achievement unlocked! Pick a BattleNet achievement that you don't have yet, and make a build based on unlocking that achievement. If it's too easy, pick several achievements per game.
19:18 this is gold loool
Do you ever get whispers from the players you beat? I'd love to know their reaction in this one when they look at the postgame charts 😆
Pls do this again. Best challenge so far fun wise.
Oh my god, Becky, look at that army. It is so big.
Make a pylon bridge to your enemies base, you can use cannons but you have to chain up the pylons and cannons
*lol, hardest part of this challenge is trying to stall long enough to kill all your probes. Once you have a a full 200 supply army, it's guaranteed your army will be bigger than the opponent's each and every time. So the final all in is always going to be easy.*
@Harstem
3:10 - it's better to be pissed off than it is to be pissed on 😉
I died when he rallied the probs underneath the liberator
Bravo. Do another video of this. Very entertaining content cow to milk.
never has "all in" had more meaning
Could you try the ultimate golden strat?
Make only units that have something golden in them (no stalkers, dts, archons, disruptor, oracle or void ray)
game 1 could've been a nightmare if the terran lifted his buildings lol
Similar concept, Beasting GMWSS with one full army F2 A move without any micro in the last fight and very little harass early :) love the vids hope you do better in your future comps :)
God I hope these players watch these replays and see him killing his own economy
Try the opposite as Many workers as possible and still win the game everything is aloud but stay on at least 100 120 workers and of course no gamewinning attack before u reach 100 probs
This was by far the best challenge
lol this is actuallly a really good strat for pvp and pvt. i dunno how it fares on pvz but i bet it's even better because zerg reeinforcements come from across the map instead of a central hub. pushing with a super deathball would be very effective
to attack you have to have worker with you...for larger army more workers...can drop them in or move...
21:10
you can make an ASMR episode. If not for real then for the laughs.
If I ever play Harsterm on ladder I'll definitely uninstall the game
don't attack until you get 10k minerals and 5k gas and switch to mass 3/3 chargelot tempest(can be +0) by taking the both unocupied corner bases as hidden ones
"We microed it PURPOSELY perfectly poor enough" SURE SURE HARSTEM PURPOSELY :'D
I love these stupid build videos. Your control of disruptors is incredible as always, hiding the orb at the top of a ramp / "inside" the disruptor is insane. How do you select the orb so fast??
Lol sounds like the biggest challenge here was how to get the enemy to stay in the game long enough to build up all this bs.
29:29 Harstem - Walker of thin lines and destroyer of hopes. cheers
I think just staying two base and producing army until 200 is way faster than this
Use zealot immortal archon but replace the zealots with DTs
+1
Replace the immortals with stalkers, so Dt, Stalker, Archon
What's funny is I bet they GG expecting Harstem to still have an economy somehow. If they don't GG, they probably could still win by rebuilding elsewhere in the map
Also, this stupid stuff with Terran, you could still mine minerals with Mules.
This is actually not a stupid stuff...it's a late game all in.
13:00
zealot 1v1ing a planetary
I'd like to see a 400/400 mothership rush
Sound good, especially your keyboard
YO! You're voice level is WAAAy better. I've always found it hard to hear you before.
This might become the new meta lol
Damm those were some fun games
Can you beat a grandmaster while telling them your strategy? I propose a showmatch vs Lowko (Dronatello) who is another dutch streamer who has recently been promoted to GM. He can ask questions and you tell him your strategy and what you think he's doing.
Sound is better in this video Than in your past videos
I really like this challenge haha
@14:30 execute order 66
like if anyone would pay harsrem, maybe through patreon, for coaching lessons for P or whatever race.
Check his Twitch channel he already is offering some coaching lessons i believe.
Haha made me laugh! Great video 🙂
we call this the allest in
Draw the letter H (where we can easily read) on the minimap and keep it intact before the end of the game.
Beating GM with stupid stuff: you can harass, but not push until you have 20 gateways
(watches this game) ok then 30 gateways !
Quality sounds way better, reaction is faster yeah that's cool as usual :)
that disruptor shot to the probes hurt my protoss heart. sorry boys
Great sound
nice aygo boost lmao
Now do 200 probe supply push. lol
omg that first game was crazy!! Make that a challange, your win condition is your opponent flaming you how about it?
