this was a good series. May I suggest 2 series 1- "Guess the pro" series where the guests try picking the correct player from multiple choices. ( such as. this protoss is A-) Stats B-) Rain C-) MC and so on.) 2- "Guess the winner" where you show a paused game right before a big fight happens and the guests try guessing who wins that particular battle.
Basetrade TV did that guess the player thing, they had some kind of a tournament where the players were anonymous and were revealed after game oe something
Interesting how as soon as the answers went to sealed envelopes, they started getting much farther apart. In the regular episodes, when they were saying their guesses out loud, people generally didn't go more than like 2 ranks off from the first person's guess. Really goes to show you how much they were influenced by the guesses.
@@hamster_designs Seems pretty refined to me! Actualy just seeing the score all the time would be good, ofcourse the technical problems, but that is just Harstem classic :D
Lowko's line of "you didn't have to mention the server, I would have guessed" brought up a potentially hilarious new series: GUESS THE SERVER. You are given a replay and the rank, and you need to guess which server it is. It'll likely be another season of roasting NA, but hey, it's already too late.
I think it would be even more fun if they get -2 (minus two) points for guessing it exactly right! This will incentivize guessing away from the middle leagues, and gives a comeback mechanism for people that trail behind to much. Great series, and thanks for the content!
Love the series and the idea. Some feedback: 1. I'd rethink the scoring system. The problem currently is that one bad guess early on totally takes the tension out of an entire episode. Also, the guesses are often very similar, which takes the tension out of the wheel spinning. To account for both, I'm proposing that a perfect guess counts as -1 or even -2 points and the cap should be at 4 points. This increases the reward for a perfect guess and keeps the tension at "Platinum 1 vs Platinum 2" situations. Also, it reduces the punishment for a really bad guesses and keeps a comback potential (especially with a perfect guess). 2. It's hard to distinguish between the three levels per league on the spinning wheel graphic (even for the guests sometimes), so it would be nice if the actual league pops up big once the ball fell. 3. To prevent cheating by the community in Harstem vs the World, the players' names should be censored.
LOL! 17:59 Pro players looking at NA PvP with a big WTF IS GOING ON HERE printed on their faces. What a fantastic series. Ive laughed so good. Great chemistry and banter. Big thumbs up
Awesome series, continues this! Funny, interactive, evryone gets to play and to laugh. You vs. LowKo was still my favorite episode right after this one.
My guesses (I know nobody cares, but typing it helps me keep track lol): D1 (1 point), M3 (2 points), D1 (their guesses scared me a lot, eh, 4 points), D2 (3 points), M3 (2 points), M1 (1 point). 13 points, not bad. I sincerely want to watch all of that game 3 PvP cannon rush!
This was a fantastic series, so fun and you can guess along. The fact that you skip ahead and sometimes have no idea how the game got to that point makes it even better. I'm happy and a bit proud of my own guesses too for a total of 8 points over the 7 games in this one. :) That korean D2 PvT tho, really got me that looked so good I thought it was M1. And the P2 PvP cannon crawl, I rly hesitated to put it in plat because of no walloff on the ramp in a PvP. Thanks for this series. M2 M3 -1 D1 D1 0 G1 P2 +2 M3 M2 +1 M1 D2 -4 GM GM 0
Even Winter was only the third best participant ... his call of "That is not a canon rush ... this is a canon crawl." (~22:30) was the second most hilarious comment in the video. Just right after calling that Silver thing ...
Harstem, I first found you through IODIS (actually through Lowko's reaction video to his IODIS). IODIS and Rank Roulette are two of my favorite shows on RUclips.
Winter is like that awkward guy that comes over for dinner at 6pm, but winds up staying until midnight even though you been telling him you need go to bed since 8pm.
That first game came off to me came off as a zerg player who remembered that T from a previous game which is why he drone scouted and it seemed like he was trying to throw his BO off a bit by trying to kill an SCV and gas steal. But the movement of the work was to fast and deliberate for it to have been low level.
Lowko's wikipedia page: Lowko is de kampioen van Rank Roulette (een RUclips Show van Harstem), dit gaf nieuw leven aan zijn carrière . ("Lowko is the champion of Rank Roulette (a RUclips show by Harstem), this gave new life to his career.") Internetz, I love you
Only been 2minutes and im laughing so much because of the roasts and his laugh then I notice harstems greenscreen and lose it.. harstems humor is on another level
suggestion: for this championship round, lock in answers, then reveal, then discuss. This forces the players to explain their great or poor choices without the need to withhold any info they would otherwise. I think youd get better content cuz otherwise the discussions are pretty bare since they dont want to tip their hand.
He really guessed Silver 1 LOL
burn
LMAO, this comment made me think he got it spot on before i saw it
Finally u can show this amateur golf player how it's done
(Spoiler)
Congrats Lowko!

Lowko you suck :p

this needs more likes
This is awesome
Basetrade TV did that guess the player thing, they had some kind of a tournament where the players were anonymous and were revealed after game oe something
(2) is basically IODIS highlights :D
These are SUCH good suggestions for next season, omg!
Glad to show some good games for the fans, we're going back to the drawing board to eat a few more crayons before next season 😂
You had a great run up until the silver guess...
Wish they showed a bit more of each game for better rank guessing
It makes perfect sense you would get bronze
the best of the people, the worst of the elites.... Marx would love you
They were coming after you a little too hard for that guess. Ah well, it was fun to watch, so as a entertainer you did great!
I love the way the game hasn't even started and all 3 guests have been totally roasted
my money is on lowko, being a caster knows how good player do and by sucking himself knows what not to do. xddd.
Harstem is like sassy and ridiculous 90% of the time, but sometimes he just shows exactly how much he knows about this game and it's wild
Video ends on Lowko’s “I’m going to unsubscribe from his RUclips channel”. No outro, just that. Lol
I heard him say GET unsubscribed
@@Boer_lekkertrician No he didn't.
well deserved :)
@@TrueThanny go listen again. Ask him to repeat
Harstem: NA sucks
Americans: I will allow this
The real truth is that KR servers dwarf both by comparison.
We all know the truth. NA is a meme server.
NA is where strats are born.
EU is where they’re tested.
KR is where they’re perfected endlessly
"I have never been so offended by something I agree with"
at 19:33 all 3 contestants have their hand on their forehead LOL
This should have been the thumbnail
Trying to figure out how much skill two skytoss players have can do that to anyone.
Interesting how as soon as the answers went to sealed envelopes, they started getting much farther apart. In the regular episodes, when they were saying their guesses out loud, people generally didn't go more than like 2 ranks off from the first person's guess. Really goes to show you how much they were influenced by the guesses.
no reason not to "Price is Right" the guessing process if you already know your opponent's guess.
Is it interesting? Would you expecting any other result?
As Harstem demonstrated in the episode against Lowko, it's a psychological bias called anchoring which can be used as a strategy
@@John-S117 although usually one doesn't anchor their opponent on the right answer
please tell me this series will continue.
im filled with joy whenever i see an upload
It will! But we will take some time off and try to refine it before bringing it back!
@@hamster_designs That's great news! Go on guys, this show is epic! :)
@@hamster_designs Seems pretty refined to me! Actualy just seeing the score all the time would be good, ofcourse the technical problems, but that is just Harstem classic :D
@@hamster_designs I think you shouldn't show the APM. That kinda spoils it, no EU/NA players with 250-300 is below the higher ranks of diamond
For next season PLEASE invite PiG!
Good suggestion! I think he would do well.
I like the idea. If we'd keep suggesting the guest list, I'd also vote for having BeastyQT and Neuro as a guests
Pig an beastyqt would be awsome
50 seconds in and all three guests are roasted into looks of surprised dismay, well done
poor elazer getting roasted again
yeah i love how its always NA server and Elazer :D
This is probably the (for me) greatest SC2 video I'll ever see. 4 of my 5 favourite content creators together in one vid
Lowko's line of "you didn't have to mention the server, I would have guessed" brought up a potentially hilarious new series: GUESS THE SERVER.
You are given a replay and the rank, and you need to guess which server it is.
It'll likely be another season of roasting NA, but hey, it's already too late.
21:48 Harstem's camera making the scene darker is a perfect representation of his mood in this moment, lol
LOWKO, master of the every build order, reigns supreme
This was just amazing. I loved everything about this.
UpATree actually put it on his twitter
😂
I was rooting for Lowko and I'm glad to see him pull through. Such great content. I would love to see another season!
The format of the show is much better with them all watching at the same time instead of multiple different jump cuts.
I think it would be even more fun if they get -2 (minus two) points for guessing it exactly right! This will incentivize guessing away from the middle leagues, and gives a comeback mechanism for people that trail behind to much. Great series, and thanks for the content!
So I guess Winter is the... BROOOOONZE LEEEEAAAAUUUGUE HEEEEEEROOOOOOOOO!!!
remember... Lowko thinks hydra corrupter lurker works against mech
Wish harstem guessed the rank with them, would be way more fun!
I see Harstem made it up to Lowko for the IODIS roast.
Love the series and the idea. Some feedback:
1. I'd rethink the scoring system. The problem currently is that one bad guess early on totally takes the tension out of an entire episode. Also, the guesses are often very similar, which takes the tension out of the wheel spinning.

3. To prevent cheating by the community in Harstem vs the World, the players' names should be censored.
Those would be nice!
IMO another option could be to drop the worst score for each player (probably not needed if the score is limited to +4)
3. already happened, watch the HatW-parts at the end of the original episodes again, the players were just called e.g. "red Protoss" and "Opponent"
Your unified reactions at 17:55 are hilarious. All of you cross your arms or put hands on head at the same time, lmao. Also 19:26
LOL!
17:59 Pro players looking at NA PvP with a big WTF IS GOING ON HERE printed on their faces.
What a fantastic series. Ive laughed so good. Great chemistry and banter.
Big thumbs up
can't believe they killed off Winter, he was such a good character
Ned Stark's prediction: Winter is leaving
@@chrisordway7950 that's a good joke and you should feel good
The roasts at the beginning tho 😂😂
"Guess the name of the player" - so I'm guessing this is one of Harstem's games. Where he praises himself for his own moves?
That really sounds like something harstem would do tbh
"I don't ever want to see that game again." lol Harstem saying he's upset that it's platinum.
I played a game extremely similar to that NA PvP and guess what... I’m also plat 2. Very accurate representation of how we play down here
Such a great series, thanks a lot for that much fun to you Kevin and to all participants
Harstem made this episode with the new technology of levitating microphone :O
That’s Protoss technology for ya
19:33 - just pure struggle. Great content! GGs
Awesome series, continues this!
Funny, interactive, evryone gets to play and to laugh.
You vs. LowKo was still my favorite episode right after this one.
I hope we are going to see a unboxing of the medals!
The look of Harstem with the PvP is just awesome. That must've hurt to watch as a Protoss. "Why did I choose this race?"
I'd love to see more pro's on the next circuit! Was awesome getting to know them a little more than just their respective streams.
My guesses (I know nobody cares, but typing it helps me keep track lol): D1 (1 point), M3 (2 points), D1 (their guesses scared me a lot, eh, 4 points), D2 (3 points), M3 (2 points), M1 (1 point). 13 points, not bad.
I sincerely want to watch all of that game 3 PvP cannon rush!
At 19:32 there is a triple face palm. Spectacular
Absolutely loved this series! Can’t wait for season 2.
Thats what i have been waiting fooooor
What a week for Deep Throat (the announcer) to take off - thank you Captain for staying at your post! Look forward to Season 2 \m/
1-min in and I had to hit Like already, what a great start, and amazing series!!
Wow! Congrats to Lowko for being WORLD CHAMPION!
I love how after the second one, you were arguing about what it was after you had locked in, despite not knowing what it was yet.
This is my favorite series you've done, Harstem. I really love it!
Loved this ! Was hilarious to watch and an awesome build up from the past few weeks
excited for season 2 :D
one of the contestants with the green screen should've matched their background with someone without a green screen
This was a fantastic series, so fun and you can guess along. The fact that you skip ahead and sometimes have no idea how the game got to that point makes it even better. I'm happy and a bit proud of my own guesses too for a total of 8 points over the 7 games in this one. :) That korean D2 PvT tho, really got me that looked so good I thought it was M1.

M2 M3 -1
D1 D1 0
G1 P2 +2
M3 M2 +1
M1 D2 -4
GM GM 0
I really wanted Harstem to admit that the last replay was his game
I hope there will be one more episode where Harstem will show signed medals to finalists
Congratz for the Winner (no spoiler). Been long time subscriber and was rooting you from the start.
i love the artosis roast 😂🤣😂 25:50
Even Winter was only the third best participant ... his call of "That is not a canon rush ... this is a canon crawl." (~22:30) was the second most hilarious comment in the video. Just right after calling that Silver thing ...
Of course Lowko won. Are we really surprised? He's the best!
ABSOLUTELY LOVING IT!
31:35 What is that bottle? XD It looks like one of those bottles you put a tiny boat in / or a message and throw it at the sea! xD
Harstem at 0:57 is my exact reaction
I need to watch that game from round 3 in full. WOW.
That intro alone made this the best sc2 video of all time.
happy for the decision to keep on doing rank roulette. Its the funniest Sc2 based stuff exept from reynor & Lambo commentating :D Big Up Harestem
Having to guess before showing what others had will lead to more varied answers like Silver 1.
i dont understand dutch, but i laughed my ass off, when i learned somebody mentioned rank roulette in his wikipedia.
Harstem, I first found you through IODIS (actually through Lowko's reaction video to his IODIS). IODIS and Rank Roulette are two of my favorite shows on RUclips.
Glad to see all my favorite content creators getting along a doin stuff
Winter is like that awkward guy that comes over for dinner at 6pm, but winds up staying until midnight even though you been telling him you need go to bed since 8pm.
4:56 SC2HL channel been real quiet after Winter dropped that comment.
I'm a platinum protoss on NA and no joke 50% of the pvp games are cannon rushes. The other 50% i usually go 4 gate stalker instead.
Hell, its about time
I really loved your series!
If there is another season then that would be a blast
What a close final. Solid guess on that GM for final round. Hats off to lowko though, can't wait to see that gold medal.
That first game came off to me came off as a zerg player who remembered that T from a previous game which is why he drone scouted and it seemed like he was trying to throw his BO off a bit by trying to kill an SCV and gas steal.

("Lowko is the champion of Rank Roulette (a RUclips show by Harstem), this gave new life to his career.")
Internetz, I love you
I feel like Harstem Hates Winter 😂
It’s because of the lips joke 🤣🤣🤣
he does and it all started with Harstem
Only been 2minutes and im laughing so much because of the roasts and his laugh then I notice harstems greenscreen and lose it.. harstems humor is on another level
What a banger of an intro 😂
Legendary. Met het oranje bloeske aan alles. This is the coolest
Liked cause there is Lowko!❤🔥
The ending sentence...Pure Gold xD

Amazing! Hope to see Neuro in the next one
Dutch host. Dutch winner. Fix is in. Kappa. Great series. Loved it.
it was rigged all along :v
I editted your Wiki Lowko ;)
Laughing after Lowkos intro.... killed me 😂😂 most I’ve laughed in months! Ha
Damn, this week was tough. Only got 1 right (OptimistC) and that's only because I knew who he is
That pvp looked so much like a game I would have played 😂 I used to always make a new base when I was cannon rushed
*ya because that last one was pure science right winter* 🤣🤣🤣 omg im Harstem fan from now on lmfao.
I love how the video ends its so good
Make season 2 of Rank Roulette Harstem! Enjoyed the whole series! ^^
That round 6 was my cannon rush hope you liked it I always meme it . PS: I am a diamond terran player have fun and Marry Christmas
19:30 triple facepalm lmao!
Seeing Harstem giggling at his own jokes is so uplifting and wholesome
you know game 3 is a great game when the only units you see are cannons, dts, voidrays and carriers ;)
Great finale, looking forward to season 2 :)
Season 2: Only do sealed envelope guesses please!
Harstem: No trash talk on how bad the other guys were, just humble?
Lowko: Well....
What a fun series!
