      yeah, Harstem forgets talking/listening while playing is a separate skill that most people haven't even practiced. Also noticed that in his coaching videos. He's not giving the guy time to process the info and act on it.

    @Z7Sakari 20 дней назад +46

    It’s interesting, at first when not many things are going on I’m sure the information is dead helpful. Once things start speeding up and you are just non-stop mic spamming with info however, I feel like it just causes decision paralysis for your opponent.
    Not only that, but it also tends to make your opponent only think reactively, and prevents them or at least makes it difficult for them to create offensive strategies of their own.
    Really cool concept, I greatly enjoyed this one!

    Not sure if you verbalise more info in this video then your usual ladder videos, but I really really like how you laid out your thought process right down to Gate and unit numbers. Helps a noob like me have an idea of what you're thinking and why you're doing what you're doing. Defos would love this kind of narration. Love this, Captain. Many thanks

  • @enymus3081
    @enymus3081 20 дней назад +18

    This would actually be way more entertaining to watch if there was an observer in the privat match that is in a call with Harstem's opponent, calling him out anything he asks questions about.
    Also that way Harstem can focus 100% without having to talk or to listen to anything, and his opponent can choose the exact information he likes in the moment.
    And i am sure the reaction out of Harstem would be more fun because it's kinda hilarious if someone magically finds every opening into your bases for drops or runbys and pretty much always is ready for any kind of move out or runby that comes from yourself 😄
    Also i wonder how Harstem would perform in an Archon 1vs(xyz amount) Grandmasters Matchup like Reynor does sometimes to prepare for big events.

  • @dustyodyssey
    @dustyodyssey 20 дней назад +12

    I noticed that you often warped in units without mentioning it because you were focused on reporting army movement. I would be interested to see this run again, but without the positioning information. Basically you announce when you start buildings, upgrades, what units you are building, when you are cutting probes, but no tactical information. IE you are taking a third but don't mention which one. It think this may be easier for the opponent to parse though, and might actually lead to a closer game. But, either way I would love to see more of this concept, very entertaining!

    • @seanlambie3425
      @seanlambie3425 12 дней назад

      If the main and the natural are already taken; calling out a third expo on a map like Ghost River, its not going to require specifying the location.
      Same applies for the callout on the unit positioning such as "Moving my army to hold strategic positions", there's literally 4 ramps. Only 2 of them being relevant to hold before the 8 minute mark while running on 3 expos.
      All the tactical info is given, but takes a bit more of background to graps it. Its not an insane expectation if the other player is on GM level.
      Now, expecting to retain and process all this info while also micro+macro-ing is the hard bit.
      But +1 on wanting more of this content, its damn informative to see what's going behind Hartem's big brain.

    How about: Serral, Reynor, Lambo and Elazer *vs.* MaxPax, ShoWTimE, SKillous and Harstem?
    or
    MaxPax, ShoWTimE, SKillous and Harstem *vs.* Clem, HeRoMaRinE, Spirit and Kelazhur?
    After that long of a time and so many changes with the balance patches and new maps etc.. I do believe it is time for some up to date archon pro battle.

    I think sharing your screen through discord to your opponent would be a better way of doing this because then he can watch your minimap and see everything instead of having to figure out exactly where you are and what to do from what you're saying.
