0:53 Thank you for providing the stats on screen. It's an edit that people may not see but it really brings into perspective how people do well in tournaments!
I do agree allthough i am confused by the math... He won 23 of 31 games which ist close to 74.2%...?
i also loved the display of data in screen !
@@mariuspaulbayertz8783 The 89% win rate vs Zerg is for this year 'overall'. The 23 wins out of 31 games is only against the players listed. So he hasn't performed as well against these players when compared to his winrate for the whole year
This was the best match I watched in quite a while. And I love how the Zerg really shows a "Swarm" dinamyc, it is freaking amazing.
Dynamic* you swapped the y and the i. No worries 👍
@@eclipsedyt3599 Tks! English is not my first language. I'll bare the proper spelling in mind! =)
By "swarm" you mean a move dynamic?
LOL I was literally about to say how the Zerg really swarmed this one!
True, almost 1200 zerglings made sums up word swarm pretty nicely 🤣
Everyone likes to talk about how Clem has the best Terran vs Zerg in the world but the stats reveal that this is not his best match up. Instead, I believe the data shows that Clem is just really good at his Terran vs Reynor.
wrg
That is only against the best Zergs. He's close to 90% in TvZ overall. That's unheard of.
@@LowkoTV Clems terran vs zerg is like serrals zerg vs protoss
@@holmis_mc8000 who has good protoss v terran? I want a pokemon style triangle
@@CamBoi99 sad reality is, that at the time nobody probably. Protoss professional lineup is pretty weak right now, since some protoss koreans went to army
SC2 benefits a lot from having such a great caster. You seamlessly explain the basics of the game to allow newer viewers to understand what's going on. Keep up the good work Lowko! 👍
23:45 - for me - it's the commentary, Lowko you are the best commentator for StarCraft games on RUclips!
After Zugzwang Starcraft, that is.
wrr, no such thign as thex or bx or etc, cepuxyuax, say any nmw s perfx
Second best. Harstem reigns supreme.
As someone who doesn't even play star craft I used to watch Husky till he disappeared but then I found lowko. It was love at first sight:') for me anyway aha. Maybe one day I'll try pro starcraft but I think my apm will be shocking xD fun to watch though!
@@Mr_Cookie1111 watch his casting, it's quite funny and insightful
Lowko you forgot that clem has never won against me in all of sc2 and maybe never will.
Thats like the saying, that no girl has ever rejected you
Then I would have 100 percent winrate against clem
@@Rockpet no you wouldnt
@@Rockpet you have a 0 percent loss rate though
Then u suddenly woke up in hospital without hands
What a fucking good game. Wow. That was an awesome turn around. Just wow.
What I understand from Clem's stats VS Zerg: he may lose once but never twice against the same Zerg
Look at recent clem vs korean zerg , clem lost every match
@@invy8477 "Great job going from Grandmaster to a Pro Starcraft 2 player! Now beginning transfer to Korean Bronze."
"Why people watch other esports?" Honestly, because nowadays the matchups are so formulaic that games look the same, outside cheese. Zerg especially - but protoss too, while terran at least has 2 viable and different end games in bio and mech - look almost coreographed with the same moves at the same times. The only difference is how skillfully those moves are made, but watch one and you've watched them all. I immediately cheer for anyone doing anything outside of meta, like tech switching to mass BC, neural parasite, blink DT hit squads, etc.
That's every game bro
People love watching what they CAN do, but on another level. While starcarft is something not many people, or I daresay very few people can play and have fun effectively. They can't do it, so more chance they don't understand it, and thus, don't find it fun. A 700 APM moment of multitasking opponent to death is something not everyone understand to admire, let alone admire. It's like art.
Secondly people love roleplaying a single character than being an invisible commander leading an army.
I have the best tvz lowko I made it possible to lose 50 marines to 5 banes in My tvz
It felt so great when my banes hit ur marines
Shut up noob you lost the game
Is that what you tell yourself? You always end up dying to mutas harass because you lost your marines to 5 banes
@@Rockpet - Don't talk bad to yourself like that. People will think you're crazy. ;p
Muta harras is dumb it is basically impossible to stop
This year solar has already defeated Lowko, let's see if he wins the tournement.
I don't really play sc2 often because I get anxiety in 1v1's and none of my friends like sc2, but I love watching lowko's casts, its so entertaining.
Nothing like a Lowko video on the weekend.
Watching random esports? Nah
Watching pro-Starcraft 2 with lowko? Hell yea
I love when Lowko breathes a little sigh of relief during a brief respite in the game. Shows how exciting the game is, now imagine playing it, if that's the effect it can have on someone watching it 😂
I would disagree just a little on the comment about Starcraft being clean to watch for new viewers.
It wasn't until I started to practice playing and listening to casts that I truly got a grasp on what was happening in tournament games.
It also gave me a huge respect for just how amazing these pro players are at what they do.
When you try to practice a build order against the A.I. and even without harass, you find it hard not to mess up, it tells you alot about how good these players really are.
I'm a simple man. I see Lowko uploading an epic game and i watch it 20 times.
Thank you for adding the information floating text, Simon :)
I miss the "hello everyone this is Lowko!" Another great video man :D
Love the new stats screen (Clem’s TvZ W/L) you displayed at the beginning of the video. Hope to see it more often!
Just back from a girlfriend's place. Got the rest of the night for myself. Got a cigar and some beer. Enjoy a phenomenal pro sc2 game commented by Lowko. What a great day.
living the life
Suggestion / hint for 1:10
When using text on top of a video, use a dim outline / background (even a light grey or simple black will do) to make it alot easier to read, especially on irregular background.
I did not expect such an incredible game, and I certainly did not expect Clem to lose that after such a significant advantage. Impressive game!
16:52 "The medavack provides vision"
Man the splits on those missile turrets were sick
Great game. Comebacks in SC2 feel super rare.
Because there aren't any comeback mechanics. Starcraft can be extremely snowball-y
Best zvt I've seen in a while
As a former SC2 elitist, I now enjoy League of Legends just as much as well as watching it. It's the team aspect that makes it interesting it its own way. If there were huge maps with 3v3, 4v4, or 5v5 in SC2, that'd be so fucking epic, though. It'd be the best of both worlds.
There are, theyre just not... Popularly played. Also the game lags crazy hard even with good rig and net due to it not being optimized for such number of entities being active at once.
Love the additional stats on 1:00.
P.S. I often keep an "aligulac" tab open while watching your videos. U might wanna consider (Obviously, hiring an editor, u cant do everything, Lowko!) adding graphics more often in videos (Player stats at the start, some end game graphics, tournament tag, etc...)
I think most people don't understand how hard it is to play Starcraft. Most people think Tarkov is hard...
statistics in the beginning - VERY NICE
This was the most fun match in ages!!!
I love Solar's style in this one - embracing the swarm tactics despite the massive cost.
Love the way he utilizes hellions.
This was a great TvZ match to watch
⚫️ I am only 26:00 into the game, so idk who wins!
⬛️ However:
◼️ It really seems like Clem was absolutely DOMINATING the whole game, but then it really fell apart really, REALLY FAST somewhere along the way!
◾️I really can’t tell where it seems the wheels came off ◾️ Whether “LiquidClem” choked extremely hard somewhere ◾️ Solar transitioned his army so fast that “LC” was completely caught off guard/screwed!!! (Actually that’s partly false, because I know how wickedly terrifying & abrupt the Zerg become as soon as they start popping those Lurker’s out!!! [ I mean Lurker’s are like “Ichigeki Hissatsu Demolition Nuclear” {To steal a quote from a 🇯🇵Japanese🇯🇵 Kickboxing Ring announcer, where bro got switch kick K.O’d 4 seconds into round 2) *Ichigeki Hissatsu = Solitary strike, instant kill]
▪️ So I think I personally, and maybe a legion of fellow sc2 lovers, need to rewatch the game!!!
⚫️ As an aside ( idk the outcome still) regarding the economy, Clem was pretty much f’d over once Solar got his hands on 12 o’clock, and now is on the verge of robbing the 6 o’clock as well!!!
🖤 I really don’t have much I can reasonably say except this : 🖤This *Competition* (* because even if StarCraft 2 is a super competitive game ➖ this right here is the “poster child” for the word in every sense, from its root to its ultimate!!!) was absolutely AMAZING, and to steal a phrase from “Loco Lowko”, the Epitome of the “Tippidy Toppada” of competition!!!‼️‼️‼️💯💯🖤
Observation:
Solar is a master strategist of zergling rallying and zoning. His work ethic in relentlessly hunting down memes was the tactic that broke the infamous Clem memes contain.
Lurker baiting done wonderfully with very aggressive ling flood. Never touch Roach, Muta, Queen (except for creep spread and early range defense), Nydus, Ultra.
Just simple overseers, lings, banes, with lurker baits.
Curiously, Clem did abandon the MMM way earlier than all of his TvZ matches. Maybe has to do with lurker baiting without any zerg flier?
i can tell you are bronze lol
As great as the gameplay was in this I've had waning interest in SC2 because TvZ is my favourite matchup but I'm tired of seeing widow mines ""great hit" "super efficient" "OMG those widow mine hits" "amazing widow mines" "so many dead lings to widow mines" Widow mines Widow mines Widow mines Widow mines Widow mines Widow mines sigh. I'd like to see some other Terran units doing well.
I hate the units too.
Its okay. The marines, medivacs, marauders do well too. Along with massive amounts of tanks and sim city.
I envy Clems ability to multitask to his insane level
that tvz wr though holy shit
Uploaded just when I was sitting down to have lunch 🙏🏼
@10:48 "through the slowing ZERG'le"?? Is zergle a thing now? Instead of circles?
Damn, what a game.
is it possible to do a Medivac, BC, Ghost and marines? Medivac picks up or drop ghosts to snipe anything coming to atk the BC and BC can kill all the lings, banes and lurkers and marines just be a buffer as a frontline
The only Clem game I ever wanna watch ♥
I want another Clem vs Clam
What a game
My heart hurts for those thousand fallen zerglings ...
What a game!
I saw today how rogue wins 3:0 against Clem ;)
the thing is terran is higlhly micro intensive, especially Clem gameplay.
So it is higly related to ping,
Clem, with Byun are maybe the 2 players in the world which gameplay is impacted by Ping the most.
So when he play vs korean player online, he struggle.
Holy shit, DRG has a 100% win rate against Clem this year!
Hey Lowko! Did you cast the game of Ragnerok Vs Clem where Rag wins?! Would love to see how they pulled it off
14:40 voice crack
I feel like making so many ghosts was a mistake, should have went more siege tanks or mines
Awesome game
Hey Lowko, regarding your winrate calculations of Clem this year vs Zerg.... His Winrate based on your video informations is 57.90% not 89%. I dont know where do you get your numbers.
really? because it seems there are 23 wins and 8 losses, my calculations are there is 74% win ratio xD
Why don't we have these battles viewable with AR/VR? I think it'd be so cool!
All videos with Clem start by praising him because he always wins against Zerg... But then in all videos I saw Clem ends up losing :) I would be happy to see Clem win from time to time (as apparently that should happen 9 times over 10)
Does ping make a difference? When Clem plays Koreans online, both players will have a high ping. This is fair for both players, but it must detract from Clem's micro a little and make the games a little more weighted to other factors. I'm assuming that when Clem plays European zerg, he's at lower ping.
This might be critical, Reynor once said he hates playing ling/bane against Clem because his micro just makes it impossible.
The zerg definately has the advantage when the ping goes up a bit, fully upgraded zerglings are easier to control compared to splitting and target firing with marines.
Why clem focused so much on ghost in the end game :(
2 more tanks and 1 more libe and he could have crushed that bane flow
I think it was around 20+min mark that Solar took a fight at Clems 1st expo and main that Clem lost his only factory that was making the occasional tank and the low eco of the late game that prevented him from investing in more tanks instead of ghosts and libs.
I wouldn't really blame Clem's decisions in the late game, he was doing his best and was trading pretty efficiently on defense but that's all he was doing at that point. He wasn't counter harassing or pushing back as aggressively as he did in the early game which is what ultimately lost him the match. Great solid slugfest all around.
we need a patch to compensate... the terran is very weak compared to zerg
Lmao
16:50 bc Medvacs are now detectors
I don't really watch many eSports, but SC2 is not a team game. At least, not most of the time. LoL/DotA/etc. *are* and the team dynamics is probably where a lot of the fun comes in. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
However, my smooth brain can't even figure out what Clem did wrong here. How did he lose after that dominating lead?
I think it was just that Solar was able to keep up with Clem's shenanigans very well; preemptively pumping drones to nullify the early game harassment, keeping up with Clem's want to split his attention to multiple fights, and using Zergling's mobility to make pushing forward very difficult while he built up tech and materials in the background.
THEY PLAYED US LIKE A DAMMED FIDDLE!!!
Poor Reynor not in the match but still catching an L with those Clem stats
that was an epic game
How come terrans never move their production structures to their mining bases in the late game? I mean if Clem had moved his barracks to the 6oclock base he wouldnt have had to shuffle between his main and mining base. He would just have to stand his ground... and i dont mean fly them all at once but maybe one or two at a time maybe?
They cant make units while moved, the more you move them the less units you have.
I think it's mostly because the add-ons can't fly. They're pretty important. And while they're not hugely expensive individually the total cost is quite significant. It's is enough that you really don't want to rebuild them just to move production location.
Obviously this isn't a hard rule; in base trades the Terran will absolutely abandon the add-ons to relocate production.
@@mso2013 Ayup, Terran late game is production non-stop, people can't even spare a tech lab for starport despite how great Raven is at creep cleaning + support.
@@Khaim.m good answer. I hadnt really calculated with the costs of addons, just the time it would take to move.
Dont get me wrong, Clem is super great player. But he is one trick pony against zerg. Marines mines is must and later it is ghost time. Even when ppl knows what is he going to do, they cant punish it. Reynor tries to mix things up against him, but none of the mix seems to work great.
This time I think he only lost because of that one ghost missplay. Is Clem really that good? Or is just this strategy really that good?
BTW huge thumb up for Solar, his focus was insane!
I think a couple of Thors would have made a big difference. Needed something to hold the front line while the weaker units can dish out more damage. 2 thors per a fight would have made a pretty big impact.
So you're using thors against ling bane lurkers? Okay.
This is kinda frustrating, after all that dominance from clem
damn, this is insane
The title and the first few minutes of Clem intro is so misleading, LOL!!!
Halo War 1&2 are awesome.
Awesome nice game 🎉🎉😮
clem lost the game when he lost all those ghosts to those banelings
Assumptions
Well I'm a Solar fan now.
Even with 85%+ wr against zerg Clem loses to a Z key spammer, unbelievable how stupid zerg is.
I used to play League of Legends like an addiction and watched the pros for years, was my first e-sport. But I quit League, and don't watch the pros, because this is so much more interesting. I play Starcraft 2 but at 35 I'm just too old, so it's tough playing competitive and learning how to get good, but I absolutely love watching the pros! Thx Lowko for still saying things here and there to help new players, like what certain units or buildings do.
I feel the same way. I'm also too far into my 30's and just started out playing Starcraft 2.
I'm a big fan of C&C, especially Kane's Wrath. I used to play pvp back when the game was just out, but not anymore. I still entertain the thought of trying some multiplayer, but never do, because I'm just too slow with the hotkeys and stuff.
I do play some Quick matches now and then in C&C Remastered and even win some games. But those old C&C games are simple compared to C&C3 and Starcraft 2.
I love every game that clem loses :D
Looool bugs faster than a car lol
Scale the speed of bugs the same as scaling to the size of a car and it makes sense.
Maaan i get you when you say that you wonder why people would watch anything but SC... and you are right.... Now... the league of legends comparison doesn't fit there... cuz league of legends I would say is a differente type of game. So these two games I think shouldn't be compared... they are incredible in their own particular style.
Clem getting stomped by zergs, as it should be
Rip the 1k lings
Fully upgraded zerglings are disgusting
Does Clem ever use nukes??
Clem is INSANE! fixed your Video title Lowko :P
Yep, you are a fanboy and you surely delete comments that are not in agreement with your fanboy opinions, so don't say you are not a fanboy! Anyway it was a very entertaining match.
That terran play is extremely annoying but effective
The Terran lost because he continued with the same strategy the entire game, you cannot continue with Marine and Bio only until the end of the game, seeing that the Zerg is faster on land, a banshies or some bater cruiser could have made a difference, Furthermore, liberators are terrible to use in large armies, they are only useful for flank attacks and quick strategies.
geezus I almost wet myself during these epic game @_@
24:20 I would disagree about Starcraft being simple and easy to watch. I think a League of Legends game is waay easier to keep track of especially compared to the fighting all around the map that Clem did in the early game of this match. That being said, there is a certain beauty in these SC matches.
Lol, I thought Clem won in this game? Does holding the game until 30 mins insane enough? Jeez
solar won
why did clem insist on having 90 scvs? at some point he even rebuilt one at 89 even though all his bases were oversaturated
Aw, I wanted to see Clem win again. :( The title is so misleading... Although I kinda expected that.
14:43 awww lowko is hitting puberty xD
Clem relies way too much on offense.. you gotta protect your CC's even if it's just a bunker and a tank .. it goes a long way
Niet normaal jongen
Honestly I don’t know why guys fan boy over Clem didn’t he recently get smashed by Rogue 3-0? Show those games Clem wins against lesser Zerg players and beats reynor and Serral because they’re not as aggressive as Dark and Rogue. Clem is great when he is on the enemies side of the map and harassing them to death he can’t take his own medicine and quickly falls apart when he’s being attacked and harassed. There’s just too much bias for this kid and I don’t get why.
No one really cares about your silver opinion dude.
24:20...yeah, sure, super easy :P. It's because of how used you are to the game and how much you know about it. I play SC2, but not even close to ur lvl. Think of the bronce league viewer submitted videos and that's pretty much it lol. Without ur comentary I wouldn't get half of wtf is happening (or why it's happening) which would substract a ton to my enjoyment of the match. I could say the same you said there about LoL or DDO because I play them a lot, for example.
