- @LowkoTV believes mech terran is overpowered. Lowko might be a fantastic content creator, but lets see how this claim holds up when a couple of experts look at this replay...
Finally someone wants to do a video with me! Thank you @LowkoTV ! Go and check this great lad out.

I wasn't first to comment, but at least I was first to watch it.
smash like and go thank my man Lowko for sending in the replay
Fake news chief! I was first! Ez gg no re
@@hamster_designs Hamster out here on the road to Watch 1
Please play against oh boi Lowko.
Watching this while Lowko is streaming. Awesome roasting especially the last part
Actually there is a style with zerg fights mech building hydra&lurkers. The idea is vipers blind tanks and h&l charges into mech. Lurkers became viable because of their splash, fast borrow and range.
I'm surprised making the Lurkers wasn't strike 2 to be honest.
I saw you
I believe it ended up being strikes 2-5
Can you play against captain Harstem, please?
5 strikes
Same as 5 progamers saying that you suck:
Reynor
Miniraiser
Special
Serral
Harstem
Still, you did well though.
Well tried Lowko. Keep it up mate.
"Serral: Local finish minigolf amateur, enjoys starcraft in his free time" really got me lol
lmfo didnt even noticed! tnx
I love how Serral also mispronounces Lowko^^
the best part is that Harstem misspelled Serral's real surname.
The fact you got serral and reynor to say lowko sucks has me dying
Local golfer tho. I peed a little lul
I mean does Serral saying you suck has any impact the man is so good basically everyone sucks in his eyes
@@thatguynamedgabestyfy8348 Yeah but he can perceive shades of garbage you know. XD
@@Abandon-art garbage has shades?
@@zerglinglover2303 yes my connoisseur
He came to watch the Incredibles but instead it's Human Centipede. So he s wondering where the super heroes are and what these people are doing to each other. Lololol. 10/10
So Funny!!!
I had to pause the video right there because I was laughing so hard.
came here for this
@@hadriewyn HAHHA BRO SAME
Yes, I paused and looked for recognition of this comment. LoL indeed.
Changed to lurkers, didn't work.
Changed to banelings, didn't work.
Changed to ultras, didn't work.
Changed to broods, didn't work.
Maybe use neural parasite on an scv to make a command center and add terran technology as well?
MECK VS MECK IN TVZ!
scv neural is meta
He did that with Winter as a meme play at gamescon.
@@HiopX the vid where they nuked the terrans when playing zerg?
@@lucifersatan8240 yes, that one
SpeCial's laugh was so pure
A thing of beauty
Harstem, you seem to be a nice guy. You play some pretty darn good SC2. But your content, the quality, the entertainment; that's just from another planet.
I enjoy the hell out of your stuff and I want you to know that!
'Infinity War' Is The Most Ambitious Crossover Event In History
Harstem: Hold my pylon
Lowkos composition was the most ambitious crossover in history
I'm glad Serral's burgeoning mini golf career is still leaving him with enough time to get some starcraft in on the side
Achievement Unlocked: Roasted by the best players in the world
That "I'll save that sound effect for later" prompt made me smile
It was so good! I'd love it to be edited in to every IODIS episode lmao
woop wooo
Can we get a remix...?
12:21 This is Lowko's greatest error. He marches 20+ hydras right past an ursadon without killing it.
I so wanted that ursadon to diiie!
“Hello effree one, my name is lowkooo, and what I got for you today is professional match of roasting me!”
I would totally watch a reaction video of him watching this.
Here is the time stamp on his stream where he watches and reacts to the whole video! www.twitch.tv/videos/702107401?t=1h24m00s
Charles H yes yes 🤣🤣 harstem is professional
Charles H My point is the roasts were professional 🤦♂️
The ending was like the infinity war trailer
"Local Finish Minigolf amateur, enjoys Starcraft in his free time" xD
Lol, this was my favorite detail. I wonder how many people noticed it.
it´s the little details that make this content so awesome :D
Where is that?
@@ciaochrystusa4778 38:56
Serral felt so convincent saying "you suck", it was quite scary honestly.
For serral nearly everyone suck
I mean, this is the Night King we're talking about.
Serral is a scary guy & not just because he's a Zerg.
@@davidabeillaud5521 That s not the point. The fact that Serral took the time out of his minigolf to _say_ that someone sucks is the terrifying part.
@@henryviiifake8244 He was actually getting birdies on holes 3&4, and setting up an eagle on hole 5 while speaking to the camera.
Best one so far, absolutely insane production quality. Nearly died laughing half the time, 10/10 would watch again
38:56 Serral local finish minigolf amateur, enjoys Starcraft in his free time. I died
I mean, if I'm gonna suck at least I want some pros to be the ones to tell me.
I'd love to have Finnish golfers tell me I suck
Harstem roasting Lowko, this is going to be awesome :D
Can we just talk for a second on how amazing Harstem's editor is. I love his little "hidden" notes to the viewer, like : "I'll save that sound effect for later ;)"
"wait but lowko what if you had microbial shroud reeeeeee"
Also see if you can convince Serral to do a BGWSS special with Overlord Creep Pylons
I like how when lowko casts viewer replays he makes them look so stupid and bad, but when Harstem casts lowko's replays he makes lowko look so stupid and bad. There's criticism out there for every player, even the best of us.
except me, I'm perfect
Except Serral

"For our strike system, we're going to use the American justice system, which is based on baseball, so...."

I think this video showed exactly why zerg is at a bad place vs mech (I think the main problem is BC). We can clearly see Mech is not OP for the pro's and I have always been a firm believer in "just get better, scrub!" mentality. I play both terran and zerg and I gotta say it feels pretty freaking good to play mech vs zerg and on the other hand it feels god-awful to play vs mech as zerg. The reason why I think BC is the problem is because of how unbelievably forgiving it is. I feel like the BC rush is killing 4-8 drones no matter what and the BC is for all intents and purposes going to survive and come back with full hp + yamato cannon and have practically infinite value. With enough dead space on the map the only real option is to counter attack and do more damage than the BC or have enough air units to actually kill a BC before it can yamato and teleport away. This problem compounds with hellion run-by's and potential nukes, hellbat drops, and ranged liberators. Pro's can juggle all of this most of the time and have a game vs the meching terran with superior tempo but as we can see some of the lower ranked players are having problems with this. I really think the sc2 team should really take another look at how they balance their game across all skill levels and not just the best 50 or so players in the world.
TLDR: Early BC's are too forgiving of an opener that requires specific defenses that are obsolete vs anything else just to deflect (not shut down) the BC's while getting poked out by Yamato cannons.
Next week on RUclips: Lowko and Harstem try to train Winter in the gym.
I saw him doing some push ups because he said: if this hatchery dies to vikings raid...his form was all over the place...
Oshit its serral, cant wait to watch one monotone guy roast a replay while the other monotone guy analyzes it very quietly lmao
Legend has it that serral is quiet only because his brain is using up all the other energy
It’s difficult for Serral to communicate with lesser beings, as he must slow down his brain so much to speak at a pace we can understand.
@@billcoley4426 lmao and it still sounds pretty fast when they interview him at tourneys
"His entire army consists of support units, which makes no sense"
Enter: the infestor.
You meant Winfestor I believe *
The Bop sound effect pushed me over the edge :D
Honestly I would be really happy if reynor miniraser special and serral told me i suck... the descriptions are absolutely hilarious.
Very nice video!
ohmaygahd, been waiting for a lowko/harstem collab. cant wait for the roast, shts bout to get real!!!!
Be bad -> pretend to be even worse, finally a strategy for me
Holy shit. I was sure Harstem won't ever make a "you suck" part that would be as brutal as in that 50 minute long video where both players did almost nothing. But this one was beyond brutal.
Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?
If you look at the capitalisation on "special guest" you will understand that the guest is.... Special!
Indeed, he is special.
wow poop man dropping big hints
I was watching this on my phone while eating dinner, when I heard the sound that was added to the viper pulls I spit hot soup on my mom. Always be prepared for laughter when watching harstem videos.
"Lost the plot", " sacking workers " I never realized how British Harstem sounds
Well The Netherlands is less than 300 miles from the UK
if anyone says Zerg is OP after watching Serral I just show them Lowko replays.
Hey, this was fun to watch :)
Made me think about your next Beating GM with stupid stuff..
Harstem, copy Lowko in making at least 5 tech switces so each an every one of them can be a strike out !
That ending just made my day
YEAR OF HARSTEM
Feel like this video absolutely shows Zerg has to outplay Terran to win vs mech. Lurkers aren't good, Broodlords aren't good, Ultras aren't good, even Hydras are called 'meh'. So Zerg needs to use high micro units like infestor/viper/muta that can easily get wiped with any misplay, while also out expanding and out macroing Terran.
And then it's a surprise when Terran can hit expansions easier when Zerg has to expend more APM on both micro and macro just to stay even.
The funny thing is? Most Bio Terrans I've heard from make the same statement RE: micro about Zerg. "If you can't split a Marine ball into 8 pieces before the Ling/Bane ball collides, while having all Tanks/Libs perfectly lined up, you lose the whole army at once."
The biggest weakness of a solid Mech army is slowness. If you want to fight Thor/Hellbat head on with, say, Roach/Hydra and can't get the Vipers in place to take care of the Tanks in the back? At the very least, a-move some Adrenal Lings around the other side of the map to the Terran's mining bases as the fight starts. You're never going to get dropped by a Mech Terran the same frequency as with Bio, so do your own 2-pronged strikes if the Viper micro is too much. At worst he splits off Hellbats to respond and you get a better engagement vs the expensive Thors, at best you cut the economy in half and stop him from auto-remaxing.
GG Lowko, hilarious video
Loved the bub bub when the vipers pull something
Can you make Bo5 matches vs Lowko. But for each match you have to choose one of the silly strategies? So none of you have idea what is going on?
Also: Bo3 but with storytelling. And you win not by winning the game but - who made better story while playing :D
Commenting for visibility, would love this.
Harstem, Lowko and Serral in thumbnail..
I don't know what this is, but I certainly can't wait to find out
My two favorite SC2 content producers in one video - this is gold. Loved it, thank you so much for this and the incredible high quality even getting pro-gamers to comment. Serral probably at his Mökki, all these great dudes giving their free time, your Dutch directness and jokes, Lowko being ok to be roasted - gold!!!
The Human Centipede comment is a perfect metaphor for my Starcraft 2 experience as a whole. I came with my nice decent standard build (The Incredibles) hoping for some good Starcraft. But instead my opponent brings The Human Centipede and I'm left with a nightmarish and scarring experience that in some bizarre way keeps me coming back for more.
When I thought this series could not get any better ... *_drums_* WATCH 8:20 !!!
AWESOME! Harstem and Harstem's-Editor GRATS!
@LowKo: Well done!
OMG I LOVE THIS EDITOR SO MUCH
I love you too
@@hamster_designs !!! Is this the editor? Really wanted to say, you are really funny, i loved you sound effects here in this video. Keep it up! I like your extra info as much as i like captain's videos.
@@ybk9698 Thanks dude ^^ Love that you are enjoing it ^^
"Our green-pilled hero" lmao
Best Part 8:23
Props to the editor, giving so many good tips and making the content so funny
He doesn't really do any double pronged harrass. As a terran player, this is one of the most difficult things to deal with against zerg because lings are so fast and banes are cost inefficient but they do so much damage they almost always get the base. If he can keep the aggression and have the terran struggling to move the mech army around he had this game in the bag.
4:58 is the spelling of queen as "qeen" intentional?
27:55 Harstem sounds like a good friend sounding so sincere “Bro this really isn’t how to do it, you can be better so easily.”
Oh wow, this episode was absolute *gold*. Props to everyone involved!
38:56 that misspell is kinda blasphemous man
Those special guests made my day. Just dying over here X'-D
PS. Lowko my dude, sick macro, but at least poke around with the overabundance of corruptors right? Snipe some undefended bases...
"The american justice system, which was based on baseball" XD HAHAHAHAHA I wish that was the extent of our problems...........
Greetings to the editor! Pup sound effect.
And the captions. Great job.
in Lowko's reaction on stream he said he was playing on NA, that's why the only SJK on EU was gold, because lowko didn't actually play that SJK, he played the gm one
also this is funny:
** SJK vs ** Lowko
Haha yeah I think they're both me, but I've only played like one game on EU
Did he already reacted to this video??
When??
@@skyebuddha ggwp bro
In game it looks like suk suk
Lowko constantly engage in wasted moves. Moving entire army back and forth waiting for an attack
Great IODIS episode again, but I feel like the analysis was too one-sided.
Even though Harstem's assessment of Lowko's play and game choices was generally correct, he failed to comment on the Terran's play.
It would have been fair to point out that the Terran wasn't doing anything special. In fact, he was playing pretty one-dimensionally.
idk if Lowko "sucks", but that Terran sure sucked even more.
LMAO, best Episode yet
me and the bois telling lowko he sucks once again LUL
I'm only ten minutes in, and as an ex terrible zerg player I can understand the logic of the Hydra Corruptor. Corruptor is obvious and I think the idea of Hydra would be that they are light units that don't take extra damage from mech, then into lurker. Makes sense to me. however as stated before, not a great zerg player 🤷♂️
Nice cast, but 60FPS is mandatory. Couldnt care less about higher graphics.
Beating grandmasters with stupid stuff... But with Lowko as your opponent next time??
Fucking loving the new improved Abduct sound effect. Blizzard plz
Boah @Harstem
the end is super hard. Getting all the PROs in....
awesome video :D
Serral: Enjoys Starcraft in his free time ....muahaha
"I hadn't even though of that scenario!" lmao
Terran is op. That's a fact. Zerg has to struggle the most. Protoss is kinda in the middle. Just compare every unit in the game.
That was cool. Thanks for that. Lowko is a good sport.
I've been there... You tried vipers and failed. Then you move on to something else. Problem is you need to go back to those viper shenanigans but do it better.
Actually. Lurker viper is totally fine against mech. I've seen serral and reynor use it to dismantle mech all the time.
When Hamster learn so much about zerg?
23:55 5 lairs start morphing
The classic quintuple lair strat
Rofl nice catch
Oh wow, I really wish he had seen that and commented.
you have sucha great voice and pacing with your words you could be doing some esotherical tarot shit and i'd listen.
Geez Harstem this was hilarious, thanks!
I have waited for this video when Lowko said he sent you a replay for Is it Imba or Do I Suck. I knew this day would come this is AMAZING
Omg this video is awesome. You are a super funny guy Harstem! Keep it up! Love it.
Made the mistake of watching this at work during lunch. Am now the mad man laughing to himself in his room.
Look at some bronze to gold games, now, do you still think Lowko sucks that much?
So do we get Special and Serral to rip Lowko apart? Or Dutch Special and Italian Serral? Love the idear, Lowko brought me into following SC2 pro scene with his replay casts a few years ago
Who is the Dutch Special? I assume Italian serral is Reynor
@@whirlwind872 optimus is a retired Dutch terran who harstem could possibly call up and refer to as “Dutch special”, but i suspect harstem got actual special
@@whirlwind872 I meant uThermal, but (Spoiler) yeah, he got actual Special, Serral and italian Serral :D
Class A editing with the random ass abduct sounds btw.
Lowko rocks, he just sucks at StarCraft2 (a little less than me tho')
Can I make a comment just out of laughter? Well, why not! xD
My two fav sc2 creators in one video? I don't know what i did to deserve this but ty gawd
Hmm, do ppl pay you for this, or I can get roasted for free once in a while?
This is such an amazing video xD
LOVE the pro feedback xD
the drag sound effect was amazing thank you
Wow man, the roast at the end... 😂
R. I. P. Lowko man. Those gamer boys are so mean
Even pro can not predict the strategy. Maybe it's strategy to beat alphastar
Quality entertainment right here. Lowko was a good sport. Very fun to watch his reaction to this. I was dying.... X) Harstem you're hilarious.
no such thing as massx or not, bigx doenst matter, also, any s perfect
this line is hard,thanks for collab with lowko,please collab with neuro next!im sure u would do some nice psychology breakdown
That was some high quality roast if I've ever seen one.
Subbed mate, keep it up! Netherlands ftw! :D
