Absolutely top notch fun to watch. Please don't forget that even though at least one of these players watches your channel that doesn't mean they know what they should be doing! Why make mutalisks? To shoot down the liberator of course. Still I hope they watch this and learn something and thank you to the players who sent them in for our entertainment.
@12:15 Lowko's encouragement seems pretty earnest here @13:11 That lategame Triple Hive play came in clutch Lowko. Anthros lost two of them but the third ended the game unscathed
You know I've actually been unwilling to start playing SC2 as I worry about getting stomped and having no fun like online fighting games. This video has me... thinking I might actually be able to learn this game and have fun
I'd legitimately say bronze league heroes have a heck of a lot more fun than people who really know what they're doing most of the time. And Blizzard has honestly done the most masterful job of designing a balanced matchmaking system in gaming history.
Viewer submitted games are the best, because they make me feel like if I practiced a build order a few times, I could actually have some success on the ladder
@@oshawott4544 I mean not using some typical/usual/good build orders. Use your own build order / flow / just build stuff (same as having no build order) without afk between buildings/units, don't do 3 hives and you are gucci.
Okay, I feel the Zerg in the first game. Upgrading your hatcheries makes them bigger, and you can do it more than once. Until I found you Lowko, I was under the impression that bigger base = more larva. But then I learned none of the higher elo players do it, because that imaginative effect doesnt occur.
But bigger base with more spikes = more scary-looking = more psychological damage to one's opponent. Sure, the spikes might not do anything, but the Terrans don't know that! As far as any given marine knows those spikes might be full of some horrifying kind of parasite! Always invest in more spikes.
4:43: No civilian deaths. This is how the civilized play the game. Bravo sir o7 8:45: Reviving Anthros' ego; what a champ. 11:50: OMG it's F'n KILLING ME how it takes 10 seconds between the Neural and commanding Hydras to attack 🤣 12:10: Ey! Only 5 seconds this time! 😅 Like, what is happening? Is he individually shift-clicking each Hydra, instead of double-clicking? I have questions... 13:10: That's where you're wrong, Lowko. 3 Hives is a lot of HP to work through, after you forget to tell your Hydras to kill the BCs and end up in a base-race. Genius! 16:00:
i usually think that i suck at any idea of competitive SC2, but even i felt a bit of pain watching Anthros move command roaches as they were made so that they got killed before they could attack
I know that a botched noob build order gives you a visceral response, an involuntary compulsion to kick short people... but these are by far my favorite videos that you do! 😂
15:08 Well, we have to admit this happens to the best! I remember a pro game with Scarlett long time ago aginst some pro-Terran - I am not sure who - they played until the whole map was mind out and Scarlett won with just a view ground units left. She even denied an offer of draw and the Terran surrendered after more than 1 hour of gameplay. Both players said after the game, that no one of them had thought of the lifting ability for terran buildings. Does anyone remember that game?
I hope one day Lowko will have a Gen Z intro like: Whats good SC2 OG's!!!! It's ya boy Lowko here. Casting a Game of GOATS!!!! Maru and Serral. FR FR NO KAPP. Please make it happen.
Honestly it'll be cool if he had multiple introductions such as the one above, the original, one where it's like he's introducing two boxers, etc. "In the blue corner we have(....). He's been known to be a cheesy player so make sure you hide your units if you want to make a good burger! And in the red corner we have (...). He's the underdog but don't keep your eyes off of him or he'll underdog yoouuu! Ladies and gentlemen, are you ready?? Lllllllllllet's get ready to ruummbllleeeeee"
I haven't even tried multiplayer in Starcraft 2 because I am old with low APM and just assumed that I would get destroyed by anybody, but holy crap the level of play in these games is making me reconsider.
Well i basically left the OCC burn from the swarm hosts, so the swarm hosts deal the damage to something with a lot of health instead of killing my barracks. Every other critic was true tho!
I know that a lot of people make fun of "F2 + A-Move" players (like I am...). But seriously, almost everybody below Plat (or maybe even higher) would just be waaaay better if they use F2 + a-move. No matter if it your bronze league heroes, Winters series or Harstems IODIS. The lower level players would always win easily if they only used F2 + a-move.
I’m going to start back up on SC2 after having not played in nearly 10 years. Worthwhile uploading match plays to go through a zero to hero run proving measureable progress? Do players usually just stream and create yt content?
I think the issue is that they are playing the game like it's the single player campaign. In my experience, the way to play the campaign is to turtle and wait until you have a big army, then go across the map
Starcraft 1, you used stim-pack you were forever damaged there was no way to repair it. The medic was a great unit in brood war, turned that stim marine rush into god mode early game if you were quick enough
I started playing again since not playing since wings of liberty, I feel like these replays could almost be mine. I couldn't even remember how to exit the game when trying to resign.
Crayon is very smart, he saturated his first mineral field with less workers than he started with so no one will say he’s floating minerals
If you put enough crayons up your nose even the likes of Maru could rival crayon
Lowko, as the player known as Anthros i thank you for reviewing my match
I also have a compulsion to fully upgrade every hive.
More spikes = more good and nobody will change my mind on that.
@@harrisonjodeit4340 fyi, my brain was straight up on auto pilot
@@harrisonjodeit4340 that's flawless logic right there. In reality, Serral lost against clem because he didn't have enough spikes.
TY TY TY!!!! I have been waiting for this!!!! PLS more bronze and silver league in the future! Love your work Lowko!
8:41 "When you are strong, pretend to be weak"

I have never been so angry yet laughing so hard at a video before. Both instances the opposite person won.
5:49 "Overlord", a true professional caster

Husky's Bronze League Heros is what got me onto starcraft in the WoL days. Hype for lower level viewer games!
I needed this so bad I’ve been watching like 6yo viewer games.
lol "this is a fully un-upgraded ultra"
There is an advantage though. Hives have more HP.
They are also bigger and spikier, so as to better intimidate one's opponent.
I'm only 5 mins in and im already laughing my ass off 🤣🤣
Lowko as a dedicated viewer I highly recommend more bronze league heroes. These are pure gems.
I feel warm inside when Lowko says 'Don't forget to smile.' Make's my day. Thanks for all you're doing Lowko!
Gotta say, I always enjoy these. I miss Huskey’s old bronze league heroes but if you (Locko) plan on making this a regular thing, I’m here for it!
You know I've actually been unwilling to start playing SC2 as I worry about getting stomped and having no fun like online fighting games. This video has me... thinking I might actually be able to learn this game and have fun
It's a fun game - even if you just play it for the campaigns, which are great fun!

Goddammit that first game was some gnashing of teeth on my part - hilarious!
Thank you so much for more viewer games, they are always appreciated.
Viewer submitted games are the best, because they make me feel like if I practiced a build order a few times, I could actually have some success on the ladder
it makes me actually want to play Starcraft
you don't even need a build...
@@Braincho you... Do know what a build order is, right?

@@tbird-z1r entertaining in a different way
Thanks for casting these! Games like this are fun and make me want to jump back in more than watching pro players :P
great cast!
I'd be all for more of that sweet bronze league goodness!
“Really is that what we needed? A third lair? 😂 😂

@@harrisonjodeit4340 Based and Hive-pilled.
This video is humbling, reminding us all that we all once was like them. Learning hard lessons the hard way.
This is the best content one can watch for Starcraft II. Serral with 500 apm? Nah let's watch a 30 apm bronze league hero!
I need more of these lower tier games, you never know what will happen
Low ELO is always fun to watch now and again, if only to recapture the feeling of starting out and all the mistakes that come with it
Even if they are not spectacular games, I really appreciate seen "real people" playing the game. Very neccessary perspective shift 😂
4:43: No civilian deaths. This is how the civilized play the game. Bravo sir o7

Nothing makes me want to pick this game back up more than watching these bronze league heroes videos
i usually think that i suck at any idea of competitive SC2, but even i felt a bit of pain watching Anthros move command roaches as they were made so that they got killed before they could attack
Finally! been waiting months for bronze league heroes
27 APM unranked game? I have never felt so well represented in a starcraft video!
Thanks for the video, Lowko. Appreciate it.
Your singing voice is decent, and i LOVE to see more of games like this! Silver league myself😅
FINALLY a video with my kind!
Aaah, classic Lowko! 😊 Mixing the unit since ever. Naming the medivac an overlord
tytyty lowko, this was excellent content/commentary
I know that a botched noob build order gives you a visceral response, an involuntary compulsion to kick short people... but these are by far my favorite videos that you do! 😂
YES! Love these videos!
Lowko you are so funny i'm gonna hit the like button
Was also easier to build your own command center with a captured scv...AND you had 200 supply for the captured race too!
15:08 Well, we have to admit this happens to the best!

Since the normal spiler shield guy isnt here i will take his place
SPOILER SHIELD

no please god, no
That would be so cringe, it’d be amazing.

29:40 Yeah, that's why it took me so long to realize the value of stim pack.
Anthros is like an onion, he has lairs
I haven't even tried multiplayer in Starcraft 2 because I am old with low APM and just assumed that I would get destroyed by anybody, but holy crap the level of play in these games is making me reconsider.
These are the best games.
I love watching low tear playing 😂😂❤❤
Ahh, the reason i started watching Lowko all those years ago.
Those guys are great for not minding sharing those games,
Ah, some peasant games to ground our expectations. Love it!
Damn I missed BLH.. welcome back! More please!
Well i basically left the OCC burn from the swarm hosts, so the swarm hosts deal the damage to something with a lot of health instead of killing my barracks. Every other critic was true tho!
I love these type of games
Gotta be honest, love the viewer submitted more than the Pro matches. Maybe I’m weird
Because it is fun to watch 😅
I know that a lot of people make fun of "F2 + A-Move" players (like I am...).
But seriously, almost everybody below Plat (or maybe even higher) would just be waaaay better if they use F2 + a-move.
No matter if it your bronze league heroes, Winters series or Harstems IODIS.
The lower level players would always win easily if they only used F2 + a-move.
If you’re able to get enough replays, having one of these every couple of weeks would be so good
I think I love your comments on these low level games than anything else. 😂😂😂
I prefer these over professional games honestly. Please upload them more often!
More more more viewer submitted games PLEASE¡¡¡
You should start a channel for bronze league commentary!
i'm glad lowko warned me to wear my hazmat suit...cuz it was definitely needed
It’s a nice change of pace, also learned a few things not to do from watching this.
Watching this made me realize maybe I'm not so bad at this game after all 😂
That second game with juanmatife is a pig cheese. One base nydus/swarmhosts
lowko this was awesome lol
Sweet! People still play this!!!!
this is super fun!! 😁😁
We need more!
These are my favorites.
You still got it brother! Good Vid!
For not a second was i not laughing
This was hilarious
These are my favorite
Bronze League Heroes still reminds me of He Who Shall Not Be Named. This shall be fun!
What I learned from this video is that stimming in StarCraft one pre broodwar is a horrible idea
this is fun !
i'd like to send one of my replays, but sadly it's from 2 months ago and it can't be watched anymore for some bug they introduced in the last patch
Yup, lots of dead marines in my SC1 games 😂. Medics were amazing, id neural them to heal my hydras, cus hydras was dominant if you hit critical mass!
lowko youre so funny im gonna hit the like button

... bruh... i started watching... saw the 3 ovies pop... rechecked the title to see wtf was goin on...
BRONZE LEAGUE HEROOOOOES LET'S GO!!!❤
love it!!!
man crayon really had a soft spot for sparing workers lol
You owe Winter some royalty :)
I'm glad that the right person won game 1, i'm angry that the person who didn't win could have just... done one thing... and then it was unloseable.
Starcraft 1, you used stim-pack you were forever damaged there was no way to repair it. The medic was a great unit in brood war, turned that stim marine rush into god mode early game if you were quick enough
user submitted .... i am so hoping that you really have just 4 hours of sleep .... tht would be great fun!!! XD
Legends
I started playing again since not playing since wings of liberty, I feel like these replays could almost be mine. I couldn't even remember how to exit the game when trying to resign.
Bronze leugue games really remind me of my sc1 days😂
Amazing games 😂
lol the infestors
