Every other Zerg: "Serral, please drop a map, we can't survive more nerfs" After loosing the game: "You got your wish, am I now allowed to use both hands for the rest of the series?"
I dont think I've ever seen serral lose a drone to reapers... that was 3!? Not sure if he was trying to play by braille or what, but I'm hoping he corrects whatever it was for the rest of these games.
Yeah, looks like par for the course against Serral. You might get a sneaky hit in if you are lucky but when the surprise effect wears off he kinda ascends to a force of nature - specifically the plague of locusts.
Finally finished up the WoL achievement hunt Winter did and it's hilarious when he sprinkles in dialogue. That Kate Rockwell part had my face hurting from laughing.
Serral is drunk game 1. Seen a couple of these lately though. Great players giving good players a game, then smashing them. That army that Serral has end of game two probably has the highest potential of any army comp in the game but jesus christ you need to be made of 4 different AI to control it right.
Winter I hope you cast serral vs byun aswell I know its ZvT with serral aswell but it was insane to see that series live I hope I get to see your take on it! much love
I’m getting older and my time is getting stretched thin. Still love SC2 and I’ll only spend this limited time on Winters videos because he’s quick witted and funny
@@lordgod9958 yeah, but bio also suffers a lot from just ling/bane overruns. Bio + blue bats + liberators IMO are the winning compo, maybe with vikings if they got brood lords
as a terrible player of sc2 and a noob i feel the infestor pain, i lost a game the other day with mass carrier and i thought the game literally lagged or i experienced a bug because my carriers dissappeared from my screen and gone on the minimap and my control group. took a while to realise they all died to infestors
@WinterStarcraft Great vid as always :) At 1:20:10 though you are right about Serral's weakness being ZvZ, he still 3-0 Lambo and 3-1 Dark before 3-0ing MaxPax and Maru and droping 1 map to both Byun and Cure. Rather solid lower bracket performance ;)
Hey Winter, I apologize I accused you of watching the games before casting long ago. Predictive outcomes are also done by other casters and I guess there's really a way of predicting what will happen
I Wonder, a crazy thought to be sure, but, I think next video we outta up the anty, we outta shoot for the stars, aim for the Galaxy, Fire a Nuke into the enemies main base and hope they don't see. We outta set the bar to TWO more likes per video, and see if we can do it. It's lofty, possibly even foolish, but I think we can do it
Serral best of 7! over 1:00:00! - "Hell yeah, where's the popcorn?" Thanks for doing best of 7's they're my favorite no matter the player really, unless it's just a 4 game stomp fest. Don't do those :P
Serral is fking insane. Though Zerg might just be op. Crushed the three best KR terrans in the world. Crushed the current best KR zerg. Crushed the best EU protoss.
Game 1 looked like someone made an extra on bets. The rest was great. Winter superstar as always. Not quite sure "momentarily" was the right word to use if that helps. Glhf!
Can't Cure use Ghosts? And why those Siege Tanks at all?? He killed more friendly stuff with them than else.. If those were more Tors and Hellions/"Firebats" would have been a more sound investment, no?
I haven't watched the game yet but I can assure you cereal does not combo fungal with bainlings he simply overmakes them while simultaneously abusing the a unit that seiges instantly into invisibility...... but I mean ima watch for the banter..... I guess neural parasite counts
Can anyone tell me where did the second fungal came from? (Game 5) I couldonly see one infestor at the the right side which casted the first fungal and got EMPed, but I couldn't find the second infestor, nor where did this second fungal came from.
It hid beside the collapsed towers on the center, at the bottom of the ramp. You should see the slowed down version of the engagement by SteadfastSC. The infestor fired both shots just milliseconds before being killed/emp'd.
Big competition now between Winter and Pig now, you guys casting the same games!!! Before it was like you were casting sort of your own picks, but now it's the same games!! Lol. Interesting. I think Lowkow and Harstem are starting to cast sometimes the same games, too. Getting competitive!! (Of the 4, you are the only one without a large foreign accent, so you get a leg up for that, me being a North American)
What i notice about all these zerg games is that zerg can break off enough units to effectively counter attack and terran can't do that. Twrran can't fight equal amounts of zerg units. Zerg fights with less and wins. With a move.
serral is so good a bronze league player can destroy him XD he is like the asgard in SG1...they got so advanced that they needed the primitive humans to deal with the rpelicators.
In this tournament, the Master's Coliseum 6, it happened a lot. ByuN vs Cure, Dark vs Serral, MaxPax vs herO, Clem vs Maru just to name a few. Most does not like the mirror matches and does not do well in views from what I saw.
how does cure not do medi drops when zerg has 6-7 expansions is beyond me. even just 1 medi on each side for distraction. Like what serral is constantly doing to Cure with lings. Good games though. hope Cure gets in next time!
Game 2 and Cure starts Banshees, then transitions out when Serral builds Ravager/Infestor... which is what Banshees COUNTER! 😟 A flight of Banshees (10-15 strong) would eliminate those Infestors virtually untouched (gotta watch those Fungals!) as Neuroparasite turns units against each other - but Banshees can't shoot each other. 😆 Also the Ravagers' Corrosive Bile can be easily dodged, they have to stop to cast it, and can't retarget it once cast. And they don't fire UP naturally. He should have continued building Banshees until he had more than Serral had infestors, and used them as a "hunting squad" or "rapid deployment ambushers" to hit from the side, rear, or even from on top of the army for increased DPS. *sigh*
Explains why ever T I face now is doing mass reapers. It's annoying and hard to stop and puts the T way ahead no matter what. Just exploiting Zergs weak units. Going to force 1 base openers from Zerg again.
If Serral would be the Alien Queen Ripley wouldn`t have a chance to get close to the elevator lol He is mental...I hated to watch this game. All my nails gone for good. My Terran heart ripped a part ;)
When Winter rambled for a bit, and then said ¨time successfully filled,¨ I literally laughed out lout.
Haha found it! 13:55
Just say LOL bro... 😂
hahahaahaha
Ok so you didn't "lol" but in a sense, you did?
"Circles dont have corners.... Source: just trust me bro"
What a guy
Every other Zerg: "Serral, please drop a map, we can't survive more nerfs"
After loosing the game: "You got your wish, am I now allowed to use both hands for the rest of the series?"
Serral! 🐐 On his route to the finals, he already demolished Maru, Byun, Dark, MaxPax, Gumiho, and others. Amazing run.
I dont think I've ever seen serral lose a drone to reapers... that was 3!? Not sure if he was trying to play by braille or what, but I'm hoping he corrects whatever it was for the rest of these games.
He did! He just created a build to beat that terran style. Looks like he really struggles with that terran opening.
Yeah, looks like par for the course against Serral. You might get a sneaky hit in if you are lucky but when the surprise effect wears off he kinda ascends to a force of nature - specifically the plague of locusts.

I will be watching this now, I didn’t know it was a thing but him commenting about whatever when fighting AI will must be a blast!
Amazing to see Serral underperform for once, beautiful game1!
Great casting as always, so far your the best SC2 caster ive listened to lately. And catching you playing Starfield on twitch has been fun to!
Planetary fortresses are fundamental in a Mech army. Because enemy units must commit significant resources to take it down.
I don't want to come off biased, but there's a satisfying feeling when I watch the swarm gut an entire Terran ground army.

“Ok, ok, I’ll play with the keyboard” moment
Winter I hope you cast serral vs byun aswell I know its ZvT with serral aswell but it was insane to see that series live I hope I get to see your take on it! much love
The beauty of serral in maximising the advantages of zerg and minimising its weaknesses
I’m getting older and my time is getting stretched thin. Still love SC2 and I’ll only spend this limited time on Winters videos because he’s quick witted and funny
I have binged these vids for 3 straight days while at work. I can't get enough of winter casting.
I love your continuous references to so many different pop culture things. "Serral is not shaken. He is not stirred." Great stuff.
I love Winter's player cards when he's introducing. Very creative and funny! :D
Magnifying the mini-map was cool I'd like to see more of that
not building ghosts in game 2 was pretty much the losing choice
Pretty sure going anything but bio is a losing choice lol
@@lordgod9958 yeah, but bio also suffers a lot from just ling/bane overruns.
Bio + blue bats + liberators IMO are the winning compo, maybe with vikings if they got brood lords
he didn't control them very well in game 3 not sure it would have helped
@@ironmonkey1512 not being able to EMP psi units gives zerg a huge advantage.
@@GameFuMaster like I said, in every game he had ghosts they were getting destroyed I don't think they are his best unit
You missed the mindgames at 41:15, where he faked moving the starport to the tech lab, making the zerg expect banshees and built spores
I havent played SC2 in a couple years but you still make me want to watch these matches.
"Command & Conquer performance" - I felt it
Very nicely cast, thanks
I will watch every Serral game you cast...
as a terrible player of sc2 and a noob i feel the infestor pain, i lost a game the other day with mass carrier and i thought the game literally lagged or i experienced a bug because my carriers dissappeared from my screen and gone on the minimap and my control group. took a while to realise they all died to infestors
The first time I encountered Infestors, I thought my opponent was hacking 😅
@WinterStarcraft Great vid as always :) At 1:20:10 though you are right about Serral's weakness being ZvZ, he still 3-0 Lambo and 3-1 Dark before 3-0ing MaxPax and Maru and droping 1 map to both Byun and Cure. Rather solid lower bracket performance ;)
I feel like Winter showed that Maru vs Ragnarok series specifically to stop people from complaining about game 2.
43:30 They expect one of us in the wreckage brother. 😂 I love Bane line.
That start, God damn 😬
Man, ive never been this late before.. time is catching up to me, but here i am trying to keep up! Work won’t hold me back!
The wraith of the litch king theme is very fitting for that last game.
I saw the tumbnail and i though gumigod vs dark, all i can say is that i was not disapointed eheh

You are describing a Dark game 😊
"Circles don't have corners... trust me, bro." - Winter, 2023 😂😂😂
Proxy reaper into battlecruiser rush + Serral not having had his weet bix = Cure gets to take a game from this man who is a league above him.
My dream matchup! Going to be so grindy!!!
Would be interesting to see a mod for starcraft with the hearthstone card modifiers.
I'm convinced that there isn't enough gas for mech (by itself) against Zerg.
The best feeling is when he lets the full fusion core theme play out lol (I know its from LOTR but I can still call it the fusion core theme)
Im not sure ive ever seen 94 lings on the production tab b4 jesus christ.
Serral best of 7! over 1:00:00! - "Hell yeah, where's the popcorn?" Thanks for doing best of 7's they're my favorite no matter the player really, unless it's just a 4 game stomp fest. Don't do those :P
that last fight was every players wet dream/nightmare
Where did that second fungal come from at 18:03 game time? I watched it several times at 25% speed and couldn't see any infestor in range.
Serral is fking insane. Though Zerg might just be op.
Crushed the three best KR terrans in the world. Crushed the current best KR zerg. Crushed the best EU protoss.
6 of the 8 semifinalists in that tournament where Terran, though.
@@enriquegarciacota3914 Zerg has won nearly every tourney since Maru's last GSL win
@@dumbocow yeah but that because theres serral
13:40 damn he's so smooth
these games just remind be how busted zerg and banelings, neural and vipers are
I'm a simple man, i see battlecruisers in the thumbnail i watch
The cheese worked, Cure didn’t try it again, Cure lost.
I am a viewer of quality. Have my like. @13:40
love you! keep bein awesome
That first game was soooo sick!
What a game one!!! Incredible!!!!
Babylon is one of the more aesthetically eye-pleasing boards
1:36:30 Man That dropping fungal proportional with Terran Supply..
Circles absolutely have, not just corners but sharp edges, all along the circumference of the 2D object. Spheres don't though.
Smashing the like button and guessing the number before he says it. 1128?
Game 1 looked like someone made an extra on bets. The rest was great. Winter superstar as always. Not quite sure "momentarily" was the right word to use if that helps. Glhf!
My God….. only Serral can pull these moves off. When I do it, everything dies to tanks.
Great series.
Can't Cure use Ghosts? And why those Siege Tanks at all?? He killed more friendly stuff with them than else.. If those were more Tors and Hellions/"Firebats" would have been a more sound investment, no?
Kates voice is deeper than Winters
I haven't watched the game yet but I can assure you cereal does not combo fungal with bainlings he simply overmakes them while simultaneously abusing the a unit that seiges instantly into invisibility...... but I mean ima watch for the banter..... I guess neural parasite counts
I wonder when they're going to make it so Zerg isn't easy mode, and Protoss actually has a chance?
Am I the only one that kept thinking the snow was the cyclone radius?
Man i would of been doing drops & nydus at the same time to frustrate cure, while holding off his army.
This game is like watching some jacked 300 lb 6'6 dude wailing on a 60 lb 4'2 child
If you yank an air unit with a viper as a spore/cannon/turret fires at it, will the round follow the yanked unit mad far or miss
Mad far I’m pretty sure
7 base vs. 4 base is crazy one sided in Game 3.
Can anyone tell me where did the second fungal came from? (Game 5) I couldonly see one infestor at the the right side which casted the first fungal and got EMPed, but I couldn't find the second infestor, nor where did this second fungal came from.
The second inrestor was out of frame. It was located north of the terran army and died right after casting fungal :)
www.twitch.tv/videos/1921920321?t=02h59m04s there is a good explanation
It hid beside the collapsed towers on the center, at the bottom of the ramp. You should see the slowed down version of the engagement by SteadfastSC. The infestor fired both shots just milliseconds before being killed/emp'd.
And you, are a streamer of quality 💜
is the speed adjusted?
Does anyone know what that Fusion Core soundtrack he always plays comes from? Is it in SC2 somewhere?
lord of the rings ost - ride of the rohirrim, i think
Minas Tirith... light the beacons!
The correct answer, thanks!@@hivetech4903
I can't understand why Serral is so far behind in the first game.
Keep doing what you do man it’s great watching your casts 👍🏼 👍🏼
hrm. uprooted spore crawlers kind of behave like force fields from sentries. I wonder now.
does Winter use an overlay or something? sc2 is always so much more vibrant and colorful in his videos than say on GSL or other streamers videos.
1:31:00 that was a critical momento, way too many medivacs killed.
if serral ever gets implicated in match fixing that first game is gonna be evidence.
"Oh no its a DISASTERR!!!!"
That was great!
One thing I'm going to do whether I watch the whole video or not, is giving Winter that like
Big competition now between Winter and Pig now, you guys casting the same games!!! Before it was like you were casting sort of your own picks, but now it's the same games!! Lol. Interesting. I think Lowkow and Harstem are starting to cast sometimes the same games, too. Getting competitive!! (Of the 4, you are the only one without a large foreign accent, so you get a leg up for that, me being a North American)
I am not against the large foreign accents, but sometimes its just easier to listen to without.
THE PEOPLE TERRANN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seeing Cure underspply himself with insufficient production breaks my heart😅
I know it's a grand finals, but can you reasonably call a Cure series "the most professional Starcraft 2"?
What i notice about all these zerg games is that zerg can break off enough units to effectively counter attack and terran can't do that. Twrran can't fight equal amounts of zerg units. Zerg fights with less and wins. With a move.
why did they give the swarm faction the only mind control ability...
serral is so good a bronze league player can destroy him XD
he is like the asgard in SG1...they got so advanced that they needed the primitive humans to deal with the rpelicators.
Serral wins LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOO
Serral is goated
why is there never a match from 2 of the same race ? is that a decision or it doesn't happen in tournaments?
In this tournament, the Master's Coliseum 6, it happened a lot. ByuN vs Cure, Dark vs Serral, MaxPax vs herO, Clem vs Maru just to name a few. Most does not like the mirror matches and does not do well in views from what I saw.
There is often. Don't know what you're talking about.
The youtube algorithm doesn't like them, so there's no incentive to cast them here very often.
how does cure not do medi drops when zerg has 6-7 expansions is beyond me. even just 1 medi on each side for distraction. Like what serral is constantly doing to Cure with lings. Good games though. hope Cure gets in next time!
Thank You

Condition purple and cerulean lol 1:09:44
South Korea has two problems. One comes from North Korea, the other from Finland.
Explains why ever T I face now is doing mass reapers. It's annoying and hard to stop and puts the T way ahead no matter what. Just exploiting Zergs weak units. Going to force 1 base openers from Zerg again.
Are you really complaining about reapers, now? Mass reaper is horrible vs zerg
