"absolutely disgusting, absolutely incredible, let's keep it going"

100%
wicked
Disgusting is the right word.
I would bite into my table if that happened to me. XD
This quote should be the channel description
Imagine if a mountain flies next to your house and builds a fortress next to you.
Marc be like "I don't know if I'll be able to do this challenge guys" then goes 18-0
He's not playing vs 5.5k+ players yet. That is what he's worried about.
Big props to Marc for trying so hard to switch up his strats within these series. He could just do the most broken version of his build and fly to GM. But he makes sure to try every variant possible even if its really difficult!
This is what I wanted when you were doing the cheese to grandmaster. Anytime you did a PF rush, it never worked or was half-hearted. I love this series.
You know Marc, you're putting in so much effort to enterain us yet we do nothing but sit here and twiddle our thumbs so I just want to say, merry christmas Marc to you and your family, and I hope you have a fantastic new year. Thank you for everything you do!
I just got my power back in Buffalo New York after the giant snow storm that destroyed the power grid. I honestly missed your videos so fucking much!
35:10 Ryan McBeth always says problems have solutions but dilemmas don't, so you should create dilemmas for your enemies. Way to create a PF / Hellion dilemma!
I have no idea how you're doing so well this series... shows your game knowledge and skill. Absolutely awesome.
This christmas long editions are quite a nice gift! thanks mark
The fact that you can get to GM with so many different openings and strategies is a huge testament to the brilliance of the game.
Watching every vid you post. You made me play starcraft again. Sooooo... Daaamn you makin me "waste" my time with a decade old game. 😁
Hey bro I havnt played sc2 in 9 years , I recxomend vibelols bronze to gm guide ! He has one of every race ! It’s amazing !
@@goldenmemes51 know the series, watched it to check which race to start with. Zerg it is. Easiest to climb when the fundamentels are solid I think. 😁
Waste. Think of the value that $60 has provided.
replay value of this dead ass classic game 💀 SC2 and D2 is going strong
@@nickholman3843 don't know how much it did cost back then tbh but def worth for all the hours spent.
i rarely watch 30mins long videos but uthermal's narrating while playing is really entertaining. keep it up simon pegg :D
For longer macro games can you try prioritizing the upgrades in the Engineering bay and see how much of an advantage they offer to the BF?
Range and defense seem to be quite helpful here.
Armor upgrade alone cuts worker DPS by 40% and for zerglings as well, marines lose 33% dps and zealots lose 25%, it's expensive but if the enemy is going to pull the boys it makes them basically useless.
Yeah I'd love to see an upgraded PF like maybe further into the game haha
"Bad game, lucky. Well that's your opinion" savage as always Marc
I'm so impressed and so entertained at the same time :) I love all the little details, like blocking the probes in the choke in the mineral line with the first reaper, getting two shots off, then killing the damaged probe while running away; or knowing exactly which units are going to die and which engagements are profitable, or reading the path of the observer. It must be scary for these guys to play against you. I also really like hearing the considerations that go into your builds. And the most important part: it's so clear that you're having a lot of fun :D
Marc's reaper micro is just absolutely insane
Marc, awesome videos I’m a huge fan. Wanted to float a series idea for you: swarm host to GM… I know you are a Terran at heart but I think it would be a fun and obscure unit for you to make shine, plus you can prove you are a great all around player running the ladder with Zerg
I wanted a salt cannon for Christmas, but this will do.
When you placed that CC right in the path of overlords going from the base it was clear it would be found.
So well done in still making it work.
4:57 "its over kristo, i have the highground(vision)"
I never seen greed punished so ruthlessly as that first game. You can feel the salt, even if none was typed.
The way you always know if you're ahead just by how they build is pretty awesome.
You are part lion, part surgeon. Imagine an elephant being attacked by the pride and as they are chewing him to pieces, they are explaining the details of the anatomy and what cuts of meat taste the best.
This was a really strong episode of the series, meme strategy + rush + static defense is a rare combination but very satisfying to watch play out. I'm catching back up through the backlog of this series while it's still relatively new, and I had to stop and comment here since it was so good.
Your games are awesome! You're mixin your strats like a skillful bartender. Haven't played for quite a while, but watching your series with an unbelievable interest. And it's not only the game, it's your comments that makes its so great!
Love the series!
Love these long episodes 😎. WP as always!
I think it makes sense to build spines. He figures you are gonna keep your troops near the PF to protect it and to keep them safe, so he builds spines to deter you from attacking just whenever you want to. Gives him more time (more APM) to do other stuff because you can't just poke in with a few hellions every five seconds, and gives him a bit more time to get in position if a full push does come from you.
Edit: Well I was assuming he wasn't just gonna try to break it head-on. I thought he was buying time for mass mutas or some other air or siege strategy.
You did a move in ep4 with reapers supporting the planetary landing, I really liked that. I thought about that too before I saw it, it's really really cool.
I think you could maybe also pull a few scvs to load into the CC for repair micro.
Cant afford a computer and played the starcraft2 campaign once. been watching this duuude uThermal for the past month. keep it up man! You are getting noticed my guy!
Love this series almost as much as Marine Medivac to GM. Great content, please keep up the amazing work.
Thanks for the extra long episodes!
Can I suggest showing the opponents pov of when they see the pf it's so enjoyable
great idea
Man. Whenever I see the PF rush I always think of Total Annihilation artillery rushing for some reason. I think the mind games are a bit similar.
Except big bertha cannon can hit from half a map away
@@sirmicro Yep and you really have to deal with them asap or you'll get picked off sometimes, the resources made them less practical but it was always a threat lol
When I was like 6 I used to think it was the funniest thing ever to rush the opponent and try to D gun their commander lol
@@austinvitelli1528 my buddies went crazy when I started speed running carrier commander. Ahh the memories
Always fun videos. Every series has been so easy to watch. uThermal#1 self-commentator/player on SC2!
*Viewer suggestion for video - collab with another content creator/pro on 2v2s. My fav gamemode right now.
Thank you for the great content!
Love these longer episodes! Really feel like 30 min is the perfect length
I want to see one of the zergs do a nydus vs PF, not even a rush, just to move past the choke lol.
Really good games. well done Marc!
"bg lucky" The salt cannon is extra salty.
Opponent: bg lucky
Uthermal: bad game, lucky, hahaho, all right, sure, if that's your opinion...
Epic response, made me laugh... That opponent clearly didn't notice that he got completely out-micro'd in every engagement...
Great video, love it.
these videos are such a fuckin delight ty uthermal
Challenging yourself to extremes challenges your mind to be more creative and strategic. These vids are inspirational and motivational. Thanks.
That last opponent was actually unlucky to queue into Marc :) So I get how his bad luck seemed to be luck for Marc from his pov
If you go cyclones, keep some scv's permanently with you on autocast.
I peel off the ones that are down on energy, and keep them behind the line of actual control, and treat it as a repair bay. It ends up snowballing.
killer episode, so great :DDD
I love how much fun he has doing this :D
Love ur series :)
I think this was one of ur best videos
I love your videos man, they make starcraft entertaining again!!!
Love this series
Great matches 👏👏
Amazing games Master.
I love when you say "Adios" . (I'm from Spain)
Absolutely sick games. So clever, game sense is incredible.
So awesome!!
Didn't realize hellions could flame up to high ground. It makes sense when I think about it as a board game with pieces, but I thought they couldn't. You learn something new every day.
Loving the longer videos
your content is always top-tier uThermal :D
build request for moondance - proxy pf + factory in the pocket base for a tank push timing?
Your building placement on that last game was immaculate
Bro. You made me start sc2 again, I was master back then, now playing in Diamond 2, gotta get back to my old level ahah.
(It makes me rage like crazy to get cheesed tho, that was not the case 10y ago 😂🙄)
Anyway, thank you and keep it up!
Man, some truly interesting games happen when always build a doom cannon at your enemies' front yard. Who knew.
Haven't played Starcraft 2 multi-player since Heart of the Swarm but I think I'll get back in it after watching these vids
Enjoying the longer length videos
Marc you are really getting a lot better, watching your videos from the start, you gameplay and ability to make builds are amazing and you have improved a lot. If you run into problems with the PF2GM, you should maybe as challenge go ghosts with PF or marauder ? You should make a composition depending on the race of your opponent, ghosts against Zerg and maybe raven against Protoss, together with the PF ? Thank you for making these amazing videos, very fun to watch and learn from :)
Hi Marc, you asked something about video length. I love watching your videos while I ride my bike. Longer is better for me. I will watch up to an hour maybe more. Not sure how long other people like to watch. Wish you the best.
Nobody ever sees the Salt Cannon coming. Great series!
Would you ever consider slapping up a cheeky bunker to keep your repair dudes safe near the dakka bases?
very nice !!
This serie is just hilarious to watch 😂
Can't sleep, am sad. Uthermal make me feel okay. Thank you.
Danger levels! Love it
"A zerg called Jimmy", good name for a band.
That moment when the opponent realizes who he's playing against when he sees the PF on his base. "Marc?" Lmfao hahahahahaha
Loving the series! Maybe try a game where you get the 2 ebay upgrades fast?
I love this series.
Another 40 minute video?! Thermy, you generous sausage, you are too kind!
Lucky?? Bro XD "oops I accidentally countered your strat perfectly" also he was using YOUR BUILD haha great series
hey uThermal -- love your channel and content
do you have a channel on north america server? if so what is it and how do i join it?
Why not do building armour or the range upgrade for the rushes?
"Knowing myself I am going to be totally messing around anyway." It is important to know oneself.
Thumb role in this case: Lift everything up and just leave. Cover the SCV's with the Marines left.
What happens if your opponent gets ventral sacs or medivacs or prisms and expands by transporting workers and defensive units? And/or harasses with early drops on your bases?
Thought the gameplay and casting during this episode was especially fun
2nd game review. First I thought you were going to walk away from planetary, thinking about it. PF is bait, lines up zergs in a line for a good hellion in line shot. Forces Zerg into panic mode, leaving hatchery to go into main as the kill move, timing excellent. Finishing queens doesn’t allow heal or injects. Hellions come out faster than Zerg lol. Only meta I would add is move PF next to hatchery because your too busy continually attacking into main. Bring up more scvs or make more. That’s if Zerg countered properly.
I watch these and get anxiety thinking about how I’m going to remember all of these details of what I need to know to out play each race knowing darn well I haven’t played SC2 since 2013 and I will never be playing again.
Let's go!
The helions were the perfect counter for his zergling play.
Marc handicaps himself with 700 resources in a distractive planetary and still gets called lucky by the sore losers - love it :-)
That's gotta be an in universe kids story... "A Zerg named Jimmy"
Advanced Penguin Bros or PF rush, which do I like better? It's so hard to decide!
it was pure skill, not lucky . great games !
What about loading some scv into the cc to repair the planetary
I can imagine, everyone on the ladder, who get to counter a planetary rush, asks his opponent, if he is Marc )
i haven't seen so many unneeded commas before, it's like you've needed none of them actually
@@cyberkekosis :D
Min 30:44 did i hear music to my ears when marc said .. MASS PF? Ghost? Yo you have to try a double PF rush!!!!!!!🎉🎉
"Marc?" LMAO :D
I don't understand why you canx the PF in last game. Was it doomed? Bored winning so much ?? lol =) Incredible talent and strategic innovation as always. Thnks!
39:50: "I don't think it was lucky, I think my strategy was epic.
Let's be real though, I'm not sure this strategy was good... I think we got a bit lucky"
I don't know what to believe anymore!
2:20 I also like to get a little bit a head Marc, it IS nice
Haha so glad to see you get tricked by the portraits too
i wonder if researching "hi-sec autotracking" as soon as ebay finishes would be worth in some cases. It only takes 57 seconds and 7 range makes it even more awkward to break the contain.
Lol amazing content!
