I know there's a new GAME OF THE YEAR every week (especially with IEM Katowice soon™) but this one checks all the boxes for me. Neither player plays a perfect min/max game, but they just keep throwing units at each other until they nothing is left.
Burrowed infestors crawling under the army makes sure that they can’t be target-fired or selected for feedback, neural parasite instantly gives you +4 army supply worth of units per cast and give the enemies -4. Pretty nice strat, good thing that reynor wasn’t facing a race that has the ability to disable all spell casting in a large area with no target selection
thanks for letting others know! I wanted to make sure it's StarCraft II before committing to the 32-min video, so went to the comment section to check first. and I was not disappointed!
Sometimes what seems to us like a sloppy play is just the other guy giving it all and making what looks impossible happen. When Reynor went in for killing blow having almost twice the supply I guess we all were sure , herO is finished. How he held on is unbelievable @@anderandersson5229
Man, this felt like one of those battles in the semi-finals of a tournament arc, where neither of the fighters are the main protagonist/villain, so narratively either one of them could win and it wouldn't matter much. So, both characters just go absolutely all out for the win, and it turns out to be the best fight in the whole arc.
The secret cool thing about this game was heros queen purge build at the beginning. Presumably the only way to really stay even with zerg in the midgame.
i wonder if hero forgot he had all those air upgrades from that void+ oracle early game, it felt like there were some great opportunities to go for air
Hey dude, I haven't watched sc2 since heart of the storm. Thanks for doing these. I love watching these pro games and your commentary has me laughing. Thanks brother!
Spoilers. The amount of effort it takes for protoss to get even a pyrrhric victory is disgusting. Someone explain to me very slowly the counter to Ling runbys and infestor parasite please.(I know about Hightemplars practically short range energy denial ability, realistically not feasible when they will just get slowed and zoned out on the approach.) Also very alarming that the protoss makes a warp prism and voidray or two early and does good with them... then just forgors, especially when broods are made?!?! 1-2 voidrays left on patrolling all bases would have drastically changed the feel/tempo of this game.
Harstem said that once Lowko made a "Game of the Year" video on this game nobody was allowed to flame him because this was actually was the game of the year.
I think broodlords and building 9-12 queens is a good idea, because queens are thick bodies low damage, but the eaiblity to heal your heavy hitters that ahe lots of hp... I like how he went Immortal.. I would of went, void ray... and half hte ammout nof immortals.. just so I had an air pressence, since he doesn't have hydras or anti air... relatively great exchange unit and surprise unit, especially if yo ucan tech spire snipe... spire is the best building protoss shoudl always snipe. COnstantly sniping a zergs spire, spells death typically. lol if your going air...
what is the card @ the start of the video? are those real powerups shadowstep/gatekeeper. i cant find much info. sorry i dont play sc2 just a noob spectator
That would be a cool update, units get ranking system, but if you clikc on them provide their hiring/cost/forge wahtever, against their kill cost accumilation. IE 25m for a ling.. Be easy to add, and each unit would have its money value, to a get a better picture, and then the losers that you paid for but did 0. SO negative net, lol
come on Winter we both know it wont make any sence, when a queen tells voidr. to stay off her creep, or didnt you notice that its a flying unit, jeez..
Your personality is so awesome and lighthearted. Used to play sc2 a long time ago and i love how you mix knowledge of the game with making the game entertaining for people who don't even play at all. Nice channel

If you time the time of upload towards your viewer base you will get alot more short term views when you launch a video ❤, (ex: fridays at 4)
@@isaacerwin9402 meh don't game the algorithm - do your part best. If these videos are good they always wait on top of youtube recommendations.
It’s like when a game wins game of the year in January!
appreciate your uploads broddah. always enjoyable
Your casts are great man glad to see em everyday haha.
At the end of the year it should be a competition between all of these "game of the year" videos 🤣🤣
Omg that’s a great idea 😂
winner idea
Game of the year OF the games of the year
The Game of the Year (so far) and Game of the Year (post-year)
It's what he said he would do last year, not sure if it ever happened. I'm all in for it @WinterStarcraft
13:45 "Thankfully he has some friends comin in; making them unique among Starcraft players." - That cut deep, I felt that. lol
We need a game of the year yearly playlist at this point. The year is starting good.
I have good news…
immortal chargelot archon definitely feels like the most 'lore protoss' army.
With Colossus burning the field, With stalkers and DT’s ambushing from behind the enemy
@@GrippeeTV That's the "variety pack" army
Idk, to me, it's zealot-dragoon-carrier.
(and realistically, it's probe-photon cannon, lol)
With Hero it's not a matter of IF but WHEN the zerlings are gonna get in...🤣🤣🤣 This guy is just great at casting
29:40 That was the decisive blow! What a catch! 👍
If you have broods in your army, it's best to zig-zag as you move so you don't leave your slow ass brood lord's hanging like that. 😢
@@SD-jf7nbhe was responding to herO's recall and moving to intercept the attack on his northern base.
Leaving broods open.
Next level play from herO
Burrowed infestors crawling under the army makes sure that they can’t be target-fired or selected for feedback, neural parasite instantly gives you +4 army supply worth of units per cast and give the enemies -4. Pretty nice strat, good thing that reynor wasn’t facing a race that has the ability to disable all spell casting in a large area with no target selection
Can it be the same race that doesn't have to rely on observers to look for hidden stuff?
Also the race that doesn't need workers late-game with energy -> superior workers, max army supply hax
Looks like hero beat one of the good races with the weak one.
And the infestor ability shouldn't be in sc2.
29:45 Parting approves of this blink
Hero was decisive af there
Was wonderful to see the protoss zerg the zerg
Can confirm with title, this is indeed starcraft 2
thanks for letting others know! I wanted to make sure it's StarCraft II before committing to the 32-min video, so went to the comment section to check first. and I was not disappointed!
11:22 I laughed out lout at "you guys have phones" it came out of no where and just got me so bad. 😂
This really really is the game of the year
Just enough sloppy plays, perfect plays and just enough plays 😅awesome 😊

What a amazing game to watch. @winterstarcraft wish you casted the full series, only 30 min of winter isn't enough!
The secret cool thing about this game was heros queen purge build at the beginning. Presumably the only way to really stay even with zerg in the midgame.
At 2.30 "Get off my creep" - love your facial/hand expressions Winter!
just starting this now but yesterday's game Reynor (Jackfrost) vs MaNa was such a rollercoaster!
Oh my goodness that first game, what a roller coaster!
i wonder if hero forgot he had all those air upgrades from that void+ oracle early game, it felt like there were some great opportunities to go for air
I personally think Protoss should build their Pylon in random spot, or like Zergs. so they can have army rebuild, reinforce anywhere.
Hey dude, I haven't watched sc2 since heart of the storm. Thanks for doing these. I love watching these pro games and your commentary has me laughing. Thanks brother!
This one is bookmarked. Geez, great game
I miss playing this. Too many good memories
I want to see more games like the last one in this series! SC2!!!
This was indeed Starcraft 2.
What a crazy game!
I don't know why we don't see more Void Ray openings. It was shown in this game that you gain map advantage when used with Oracles.
Lord. You saying, "You have phones" is the best comment ever. You win the interwebz today, Sir!
Second Game of the Year so far and we haven't finished the month. Banger matches and I can't wait for more!
Here's to hoping there are Brenda / Winter blacking out moments HAHA
We need a compilation video.
7:21 Metaphoracle
Man what a game!!!! Hero really fought for that win he deserves it
The infestors are the ghosts of the zerg, the pride of special zerg forces!!!
Crouching void ray hidden zealot, would have been the pun there.
Lack of Hydras baffles me
I thought hero was down and out at least two separate times this game, but my god what a nail bitter this turned out to be.
Spoilers.
The amount of effort it takes for protoss to get even a pyrrhric victory is disgusting.
Someone explain to me very slowly the counter to Ling runbys and infestor parasite please.(I know about Hightemplars practically short range energy denial ability, realistically not feasible when they will just get slowed and zoned out on the approach.)

Winter this is the third game of the year video and it’s January.
I think broodlords and building 9-12 queens is a good idea, because queens are thick bodies low damage, but the eaiblity to heal your heavy hitters that ahe lots of hp... I like how he went Immortal.. I would of went, void ray... and half hte ammout nof immortals.. just so I had an air pressence, since he doesn't have hydras or anti air... relatively great exchange unit and surprise unit, especially if yo ucan tech spire snipe... spire is the best building protoss shoudl always snipe. COnstantly sniping a zergs spire, spells death typically. lol if your going air...
At this point I think we need to be talking about 'game of the Decade' goty just doesn't cut it anymore.
Jimmy ! Remember to patent moracles and foracles ! And remember to keep count for ppl who don't watch dates... Ty Jimmy.
hidden forge crouching chargelot build ;)
It’s an absolute disaster! Haha, I really like when Winter says that!
Get offffffff myyyyyy creeeeeeeep!
Of all the games that was one of them
I know nothing about Starcraft but it keeps recommending your videos
One of the best games I've seen in forever.
I like when i get to like the video before it hits the daily Jimmy target
what is the card @ the start of the video? are those real powerups shadowstep/gatekeeper. i cant find much info. sorry i dont play sc2 just a noob spectator
Better change Reynor's card nickname to Daenarys because he's playing the Game of Throws lately.
Thanks for another great cast!
I don’t ever comment, but I’ve been watching for years. Thanks so much for your dedication to the craft. 🥰
So rare for Protoss to win against Zerg these days, wow!
Jimmy has got to start turning up these like numbers, it’s just too easy
After the patch, ZvP is the only matchup keeping SC2 worth watching, but it really is SO good!
you could pick like 6 different times any other play would have tapped out. no idea how they held but they did.
Wait a sec… hero just got rinsed but there’s 15 mins of game left…
Man, I totally thought this was Stormgate.
The boy who cried GAME OF THE YEAR
This is quite possibly the first time I have rooted for a Protoss player to win. And I normally root for Zerg.
25:05 it is in God's hands
Amazing match.
Lets gooo! Another game of the year! : )
What. A. Match!
Why didn't Raynor make Hydra in the beginning, to defend against the oracles?🤔
Didn't need too, it wasn't a mass oracle build.
Was one of my fav games wish it was a best of 3
It was BO5, iirc.
I think your counting is off. Wasn't yesterday's video 1245?
Is this the second game of the year in january?
That would be a cool update, units get ranking system, but if you clikc on them provide their hiring/cost/forge wahtever, against their kill cost accumilation. IE 25m for a ling.. Be easy to add, and each unit would have its money value, to a get a better picture, and then the losers that you paid for but did 0. SO negative net, lol
I'm new to this channel! It's amazing! But I have one question... is Jimmy real or? :D
Jimmy ain't real, its a bit, now go tell jimmy you appreciate his work
Jimmy is real
Sure he is
Jimmy is as real real as god is praise Jimmy
You are Jimmy ;)
without lurker and hydras, i feel like zerg is easier to beat for toss (constant snipe on observers rather than reynor let obi see it all)
What a game!! 😊
dt's are good homebased probe defense cheap too... z and p... not so much terran because of scan.
If they don't have mouths, how do they consume energy drinks?
Why didn’t hero kill drones after he killed most of the queens?
The most fun games are with Hero...
24 queens dead...crazy game!
Palworld is gonna be Game of the Year
Just saying
Thank You
Om nom nom
How about a game of the month instead each month for 12 months then we get a poll at the end of the year for the real game of the year
come on Winter we both know it wont make any sence, when a queen tells voidr. to stay off her creep, or didnt you notice that its a flying unit, jeez..
GOTY confirmed
Your personality is so awesome and lighthearted. Used to play sc2 a long time ago and i love how you mix knowledge of the game with making the game entertaining for people who don't even play at all. Nice channel
Top kek episode thank you ser
So often reynor gets sloppy with the upgrades.. sad to watch
IS JIMMY A REAL PERSON?
Down 100 supply 15m in? Well this is over, it must be a best of 3 right? ... DELIGHTFULLY WRONG.
1237 likes on this cast!!
I’m shocked heros hot keys are so bad. I
SPARTA!!!
Im a simple guy.. I see hero i click like .
❤️
No freaking way protoss won in long PvZ...
Why here are so many game of the year?
Speed or not, Ultras are such a waste of money.
BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONZE
Ultras still suck bring back armor and siege attack
DKZ hero defeat a champion zerg on a zerg map
