i feel like they should give warp jumps to carriers as well.. cuz it makes sense lore wise... like the protoss would have created their capital ships with warp jump abilities from day 1... right and that ability kinda makes BCs OP .. plus ability to heal up after a jump... go to base and SCV heal... havnt seen any BC mass video that ended in a loss
BCs are definitely a good addition now since they don't need energy to use their abilities. But I feel like Tempests are still slightly weak while Carriers are still mostly terrible.
@@haoyuzhu6810 That is true, but serral is an interesting character, tell me what you think about my take on him: He can only dominate 2 matches at a time. Last year he dominated zvz and zvp but hardly played very many high lvl zvts. This year after he lost to inno, he decided to dominate every Terran after that. So now he's dominating zvp and zvt but guess what, he's losing zvzs now
Otto Doggo Serral had a 4-3 to Reynor last year so this time his lost isn’t too surprising.I think he is still the best Zerg on this earth,one or two loses doesn’t matter,maru also lost in IEM and WESG.There is no doubt with his zvp and zvz skills.but Europe and America don’t have top Terran players to practice with.so I think his zvt may be a weak spot while maru is so good at it.
Been wishing for a highlight where terran pulls this out. Seen too many 90 Nuke games, when build at least 1 BC and warp into a mineral line for harass would be more cost effective. Then I see Maru do this. Forever a fan, now.
the 90+ nuke games are mostly against the zerg. Nukes are much better than BCs in tvz because BCs are easily out numbered by corruptors and easily countered by a bunch of cheap spell casters like infestors. Also, ghosts are cheaper than BCs and have snipe ability which is basically a weaker version of yamato cannon, and EMP to remove zerg's energy
@@TheBikeOnTheMoon Early BC:s are very strong vs zerg and is an increasingly popular build. Queens alone cant handle it and often that is the only unit they have to defend against BC:s early on, even with many queens you can kill most of them (especially with yamato) and then teleport back, repair and come back. If they are totally unprepared you can just teleport your BC straight into their mineral lines once you make your first. You are almost guaranteed to kill some queens and overseers for free, and that is the worst case scenario. Killing queens is much more damaging than you would think, they cost a lot of minerals and without queens there is no creep spread and no larva injections which slows them down a lot. Late game BC:s against zerg is trash, I agree on that but you can just transition once the zerg starts building units to counter the BC:s, you kinda want the fusion core for the liberator range upgrade anyway.
Terran's late game option is the worst in the game, nuke drop and ghost are probably the only things that can save the Terran and players have just discovered it recently. BCs are also getting a bit of more use because of the buff. The Terran are so outmatched in most cases that seeing them win is obviously awesome :v
TheBikeOnTheMoon ghosts have always been a late game option for the pros. Nukes and emp for toss nukes and snipes for Zerg. BC are definitely way better warp all over and drop yamatos
In the pro scene, currently Terran has one of the best late game. If we Terran has set up correctly till few BC, its end game for your opponent. Since BC don't require mana, BC do not need to wait for mana, and two spells on separate cooldown timer, can't be feedback or emp. T.jump is an instant spell without delay, it is very good to run away without a scratch or fight till the last min. The delay is after the jump, but is untargetable. Unlike recall, you can still attack them until the spell channell finished. BC can chase while shoots. Don't worry on the ground defends, tank the damage and yamato them out. Then Jump back to repair, and wipe their base one by one. They can't defend a two prompt attack, the map is too large for other late game units to move around. Carrier is useless against us. Just Yamato them out one by one, they can't out produce the fleet. If they are making Tempest, defend first and wait till you have enough BC. Attack elsewhere, once the tempest is out of position, just T.jump into them, they melt like butter. The only counter is recall, but when the protoss recall, they have given up map position, just crash their ground defend and move forward. Our cooldown is shorter and individual. Separate your fleet, every ship can jump accordingly. Some make Mothership to get a secondary recall, but hey, use your scan, you have tons of them late game. Once they are out, snipe them. Mship is more expensive and takes 114 timer/8 food, u snipe one, you win by 8 army instantly. Protoss is good pre late game, then they lose their edge. Have fun!
@@RAiNfORAiNbOW in SC2 there isn't. The thing is, Tempest units have better range and move speed against BC's, but, when they got flanked, both of those advantages were nullified. BC's can dish a ton of damage, but they can't catch Tempest units speed-wise. My english is garbage, I know. I hope that helped anyways
like most of us i think i already knew when i saw him the first time he will be a great terran.. now he has 4 GSL titles and we're at that point where i have to rethink. MVP was my alltime fav. but now theres a chance that he will get the 5th gsl trophy xD oh my dear .. maru i love u.
Nope, no one thought that. In his early days he was just going 1 base all-ins and didn't even have the most flashy micro or anything. I've been watching him since GSL season 1 (big fan) but Maru showed no signs of greatness until years later.
@ 4:30 I guess the correct and only counter-play to Tempests for Terran is to say, "fuck it," ignore the Tempests, and Medi-Vac drop their bases from behind, then in your best Arnold Schwarzenner expression be like, "DO IT! KILL ME, I'M HERE! COME ON!" ruclips.net/video/HGhP3p6lI3U/видео.html
@@Zeratultheking Their main role as T3 is for tanking, not directly deals massive damage to air units. BCs is bad against air, but quite powerful against grounds unit. Against Tempests which is hard counter to BC, jumping over them alone can't achieve this. You can't blindly build T3 units without support unit, as you see Classic's Tempests crumble.
@@Whalery And that's why T3 in SC2 fails. A high tech unit shouldn't be classified as a support role for any game. If it is it is done wrong. A basic unit should not be what is used that far into the game as the major DPS of your army. It is why BW worked for so many years. If you tech'd up you were rewarded for it, not stuck with a sluggish tank that did no damage.
:D but srsly, I have watched like ur every video and am not interested of highlight video of ur highlight videos, hard to say what you should do because it's gonna be hard task to make it epic for sc2hl veterans
But of course u can add there those very epic moments from early times which weren't even on ur own videos, like "epic cannon rush fail (rushing wrong base)" or "a stalker vs zealot rush, the closest game ever" (not video title, from top 10 video)
This is what an SC2 pro game supposed to be. Both classic and Maru did very well in this match. Small counterattacks, good harassment, and well-designed army compositions, I mean, unlike mass cyclones or army mostly swarm consisting of hosts or so, which is kind of annoying for me. Though it's titled MASS BATTLECRUISERS but you can tell that it not like the more bcs one have the more possibly the player can win the game. Matches with monotonous/tedious strategies like pissing your opponent off with tons of nukes or tempests that you can never reach is enough and unwanted (so that the staff are busy balancing). Anyway, thanks for uploading this highlight.
I really don't like tempest play flying siege tanks with air and ground targeting, no issues with terain positioning and can chip pretty much any defence to pieces. oh and they are just fast enough they can pull back the moment they fire to be almost totally safe from anything but massed combined arms responses.
As always! Very entertaining games from Maru! Tasteless always saying Colosus thats because thats the only way you can beat the champ! A LOT OF AOE DAMAGE! #PlaylikeMaru
Still funny how people can complain about a tier 3 unit. As if it was an easy thing to transition to BCs from bio while having tanks and of course medivacs that you need to "throw" without losing the game and slowly replace for vikings, not even BCs, to eventually finish the upgrades and make BCs.
@@StriderZessei Yes, vikings and medivacs are part of a different composition than bcs. The only thing they have in common is flying. Bcs work differently and are part of a different playstyle. It's a transition.
@@Ole_Rasmussen I just mean from the perspective of tech trees. Terrans already are going to have starports built, so building a fusion core and swapping a few add-ons isn't nearly the massive transition you make it sound like it does.
@@StriderZessei well for Vikings and medivacs you have one or two starports with reactors, by switching them to tech labs you are giving up the Viking production. Plus you need 1-2 additional starports with tech labs, fusion core and upgrades. It is safe to say it is a transition. It's the same as if protoss opens up with a stargate for oracle to transition to robo units and later transitioning to skytoss.. Tech-wise, yes you already had the buildings necessary, but you still needed a massive resource, time and supply investment to make it happen.

The best thing about battle cruisers is their ability to tackle chuck. LOL subtitles.
That tactical jump was so flashy you won't notice the ghosts slipping to take care of the templars at the back. Very smart play by Maru.
one of the coolest games i've seen in a long time. it's been a while since i've seen such a massive play
The way Artosis says "BCs" is so epic.
Best match I've seen in a LONG time
I missed during the cast but I think he EMP'd the tempest as he tactical jumped on them
