    Big fan of the decision to do a voiceover. I know it's more time to make, but knowing that you're playing at 100% makes it much better!

  • @Zamiroh

    I really like how you did this video. Obviously, live commentary during your regular content is cool. However, for something like this, i think doing the voice over is really nice!

      Agreed 100%.
      I've noticed that he plays slightly faster when he doesn't have to commentate _during_ play. So for that reason, it's very much worth doing post-game commentary.

    Amazing! Congrats on this achievement! Your zerg has become exceptional. Now to just take a creep spreading class with Serral :)
    Please continue to do this approach. Although, I would've loved to see one of the last Hydralisk/zergling games! Is this something we can pay for to see in discord?
    Thanks!

    Actual competent professional gaming where the games are not just "for fun" but the competitors are actually trying their best plus the crazy random race = you get my respect sir, best series. I wish it a lot of success and will watch with pleasure!

  • @anotherplatypus
    @anotherplatypus 5 месяцев назад +11

  • @rexim90
    @rexim90 5 месяцев назад +8

    This was really good, one game from each made for good pacing and you doing a voice over fits really well with the style of content. Good job qualifying.

  • @magmonix

  • @Yumari-Mai
    @Yumari-Mai 5 месяцев назад +6

    Congrats Marc! 1 from each series is awesome but I don't think anyone here would complain if you did decide to do voiceover of more games xD
    Your double ling drop looks super refined now btw, nicely executed and really clean.

  • @todfrye673
    @todfrye673 5 месяцев назад +14

    I also agree that doing voiceover later so that you could play at your best is great. I would also encourage you to make separate videos for each round of the tournaments. I am not sure you want to do that level of effort - but maybe if you hired a person to do the video editing and you just do the commentary?

    • @miza6
      @miza6 5 месяцев назад

      Agree, I’m down to watch the whole series, of it takes too much time, I am also good with modest editing, just clipping dead time from between games.

  • @BoxOfWasabi
    @BoxOfWasabi 4 месяца назад

    Congrats, this is awesome! Been watching for a while and I'm really proud of how far you've come as random! Glad you went with the voiceover. Love hearing your thought process. I haven't played since.. 10 years.. you inspired me to get back online and proxy hatch / spine crawler rush some folks. Managed to get a couple wins! Thanks again thermy.

    "Ziomek" in polish means "buddy/friend", your pronounciation of his nickname was really funny for me 😂
    I completely understand that you said it that way tho xd
    I can't find a way to explain in English how to say it correctly ;) Those are our special "zi", "si", "ci" and so on 😅
    Great video as always!

    • @Konnkord
      @Konnkord 5 месяцев назад +2

      I wasn't paying attention at first when he said he played "ZaioMech" and when I actually looked at the screen later and saw the name I had a huge dissonance :D

  • @larryh8620
    @larryh8620 5 месяцев назад +2

    I've been watching your videos for a year or so and I'm so happy for your qualification. Congrats! This was the best video I've watched so far. One thing on the format, I liked the games that you voiceovered, but would like to see more of the game (like 2x what you showed on some of them). Again, everything is great, but having slightly higher amount of highlights for the voiceover games would make the video perfect!

  • @dajosh42069
    @dajosh42069 4 месяца назад

    Yeah... you move much faster in-game when you're not commentating at the same time. It was very much worth doing it after the fact.
    GG man, you're really an amazing player. I used to play SC/BW when I was younger... never in any sort of competitive capacity, but mainly just for fun.
    I only just purchased SC2 yesterday, after completing all of the free-to-play content.. and I'm really starting to get into the whole SC2 scene! I love your tutorial, and experimental/challenge videos. Can't wait to see more!

    Live commentary gives us insight into everything you're doing in the moment (because you're really good at live commentary), but voiceovers give us your hindsight into things you didn't realize while playing which can be really entertaining too. I'll watch either way haha.

    18:30 When Beasty first ran into MaxPax and became aware of the MaxPax PvT build, one thing Beasty reckoned was that you could fake the build by simply building your gate nearby, but not actually proxied. Nothing ever really came of it, and it's always bothered me, because it seems like it should be a thing. I don't think foolery is being utilized to it's maximum potential.

    I wonder what could explain the over representation of protoss in all those tournaments, even the main event... in theory, the population of pros and semi-pros should be pretty even so what happened to all those Terrans and Zergs ? (and Random as well from now on ^^)

    Actually when I was playing StarCraft as pro, I only have 1 built and I force opposite players to play my style.
    It was just 1 gate dragoons into Reaver drop, micro crazily. Opponent has no choice but to play predictably on my style. And I perfected the micro to a point I feel, I don’t need a second built 😅
    So when you say you only 2 built, it is because you played it so well to a point that opponent can only play react
