I met Arty in Krakow in like 2015, before Remastered was even announced. I asked him and Tasteless about the possibility of casting BW, since it was all SC2 - and their eyes SPARKED. They said that they would love to when given chance. 8 years later, here we are. Thank YOU Arty for your commitment to this beautiful game.
Wow that was insane. I thought for sure the game was over when Light lost the bottom left. And then again when his army basically got wiped when he went cross map to the mineral-only.
In that JyJ game you're referring to he also had EMP alongside the Gols to zone the Queen's out. Also Zelots refusal to get Defilers on 8 base is nuts!
Aggressive zerg vs Macro terran is my favorite matchup. It feels like how each race should play not just game wise but lore wise. Terran trying to establish a base of operations and hold the line against a mindless fearless swarm that slowly eats away at them.
Hey Arty, been a long time watcher of these casts. This has been part of my daily routine for the last few weeks. I love these casts. Thank you for doing these! I also really love the insight you sometimes do at the end where you showcase the parts where the actions they took decides the game, so keep doing that!
@ArtosisCasts: Btw, during the cast you missed on special thing. Zelot in fact did go for something agressive - his opening was 9h 9p. But being cross spawn it prohibited him from going some kind of liing agression. And I also think the marine moveout could have been related to this fact. Otherwise awesome game and cast! Thanks!
honestly speaking I think this was a game played just for the sake of practice. There is no way Zelot being on 6-7 gases doesn't build a single defiler all game. He also splattered himself attacking when he really didn't need to, being up a full 3 bases at one point.
At this point.... if you're losing half your Queens bc you can't get to the tanks..... maybe is better to just broodling the goliaths at the edge?? .... I know it's not optimal... but at least you won't lose your Queen?... and probably you'll get an extra Goliath kill or two bc of SIege tanks friendly fire sometimes?..... I'm really asking bc I don't know. Seems like it could be the case for this game, is it not?
If he had used broodlings on Goliaths light would have killed him immediately. Mass tank with a few goliaths beats hydra-lurker super easily as we saw. Hydras fight goliaths, queens fight tanks.
12:15 Do you think that a pro player can distinguish which valk the scourge are following just by the movements and snipe them by splitting another valk from the group?
This was a really fun watch. Thanks for the cast Arty! On a slightly tangential question, do Zerg ever use Devourers? I feel like I've never seen them in modern sc comp, but I avoid zvz so maybe that's why? Is the unit bad?
This was the first Starcraft 1 game I ever watched casted. Been watching Starcraft 2 for a decade now, just never got into the original. To think that a game that hasn't been updated in 25 years still has creativity and problem solving going on and new metas being discovered....
@RT I think the early harassment is definitely a thing to copy for week players too. With his scouting scv he could get sure, that no lings were made due to the mass drones in the base and avoiding to kill the first scouting ling with his 2 marines should be the attraction for every player in the game.
That’s was something I always wondered about. My feeling was that a cannon rush that was executed that well couldn’t be stopped. I was wrong. I honestly don’t know if Best could’ve done it better and still Action kept his hatchery
Hey Artosis. Commenting because you told me lol. But just a suggestion of what I want to see. How about casting some of your ladder matches every now and then? Thanks.
That is the 1st game where I see a Mech Terran win in this ASL pro gamer setting... maybe the Irradiate was actually a really good choice over EMPing, he constantly reduced the Queens by that
Vessels are just better, Valk's big benefit is their ability to deal with clumps of air units, and Queens do not clump up especially when they get their spawn broodlings command. A queen can move in, spawn, and move out before a valk kills them. Vessels can emp, d-matrix, irradiate and detect, which gives them an immense amount of utility. Just doesn't make sense to burn production time on Valks lategame (unless you expect a muta switch)
It's not about the gas (vessels cost a lot more). It's about the usage of the starports. Valkyries lose a lot of their value when mutas aren't being made anymore. Vessels are just much more versatile.
This was a super interesting match. The map is different from what we usually see, and the unit combination for Light at the start was so cool, came out with everything basically. Really well played on both sides.
Hey arty, why don't more terran players do this kind of valkyrie rush build? Correct me if i'm wrong but if light had been a bit more cautious with those valkyries until he got 3 of them suddenly aren't mutalisks basically useless since 3 valks will one shot? I feel like so often mutas kill so many SCVs and bio that having a "cheat code" to just not deal with them would be a no brainer.
its because you need Science Vessels to push out against Lurkers. The Valkyrie rush can be quite good but if the Zerg is able to get lurkers close to your base and contain it can be hard to apply pressure.
I figured as much, but i guess what i'm asking is how important is applying pressure after the muta harass? Is staying on two bases for a bit and macroing just giving zerg too much freedom to expand and max out?@@IanFanselow
@@Tungar111-mv2hw I think the big concern is to make sure a defiler can't dark swarm the natural with lurkers there. And if the lurkers are containing you it's a lot scarier because the Defilier can just waltz up. But definitely the valkyrie seems like a good thing to mix in, especially if the Zerg goes extra heavy on Muta cause that delays lurkers so you don't have to worry as much
What bloodsuckern said. Basically with hold position you can allow the enemy to walk over your lurkers without knowing and you can then order the lurkers to attack when it's too late for them to flee or spread out.
I don't think this was such great game. ZeLot got real lazy the last 10 minutes. just throwing away his armies for peanuts. Anyway nice cast, love the channel!
HI Artosis. Thank you so much for all your casts. Absolutely love them. I have one suggestion. If you have the answer to that question, it would be nice if you tell us at the begining of the match if the players know who they are playing against. As so many pros use code bar names. It would help understanding some of the choices. Like you said on this one that Light knows he plays against Zealot etc... But does he ? Are we sure ? :). Thanks again and keep up the good work.
Did light know he was playing zelot? You said this was a ladder game? You kind of made it sound like light picked his build because he knows he is playing zelot. Zelots id is just a barcode from the looks of it
I thought zelot was going to lose when that happened, all the value he gained was lost in the hydras he sac'd you cant hold up 6 bases and have enough for map control.
I wonder if the Zerg should instead just broodling the goliaths when they are screening for the tanks that hard. Maybe once the goliath count is reduced you can hydra bomb the tanks with overlord drops like Protoss does with zealots? IDK. Seems like ZeLoT in this game just ran his queens face first into the goliaths multiple times. He still got value out of them, even still.
Why can’t why patch SC1 so you start with the same amount of workers like SC2? Would that break the game ? Wouldn’t we have faster games like SC2? Which is better ?
No, it would completely ruin the game. The 12 worker start was one of the worst things to ever happen to sc2. There is almost no variety in the early game compared to 6 worker starts.
Seems like there were enough close engagements where the cost efficiency of cracklings would have cleaned up. At least provided additional targets for the goliaths to buy more queen spellcasting time. I really liked the parasite for the vision, allowing spell casting splits while controlling elsewhere.

I concur. BW might very well be the best game ever made, and Arty is the king of its casters. Thank you for your commitment.
arty with sparkling eyes . I m scared, dude
This story gave me chills.
best game ever brood war
thanks Artosisssssssss
Wow that was insane. I thought for sure the game was over when Light lost the bottom left. And then again when his army basically got wiped when he went cross map to the mineral-only.

And then sometimes they just suddenly deliver a knockout blow on the zerg out of nothing
Hey! Nerds! Artosis is back. Watch Artosis!
Glad Arty moved to Canada. I can see the sorries kicking in ❤
Hey Arty, been a long time watcher of these casts. This has been part of my daily routine for the last few weeks. I love these casts. Thank you for doing these! I also really love the insight you sometimes do at the end where you showcase the parts where the actions they took decides the game, so keep doing that!
Your casts are always awesome! Thank you for making content, you are a StarCraft legend!
Wow, amazing back and forth game! Was sure Terran will crumble in face of 14+ queens, but he adapted and managed to prevail
Such a great game! Thanks for casting
Glad to see you back. It was hard to get by without my daily fix of Starcraft
Clean game from both players! Very enjoyable match with battles and troop movements all over the map.
This is the kind of game you want to show someone asking about Starcraft! Great stuff, thanks for casting.

A game of mass Queens casted by our King ❤️❤️❤️
Awesome game glad to have you back sir. Health always comes first, don't feel pressured by anything.

Artosis: *cough* sorry guys, I'm still a little sick! Sick casts!
Prepping for ASL with ladder games same match up is the career dedication that gets us behind the scenes thank you!
At this point.... if you're losing half your Queens bc you can't get to the tanks..... maybe is better to just broodling the goliaths at the edge?? .... I know it's not optimal... but at least you won't lose your Queen?... and probably you'll get an extra Goliath kill or two bc of SIege tanks friendly fire sometimes?.....

If he had used broodlings on Goliaths light would have killed him immediately. Mass tank with a few goliaths beats hydra-lurker super easily as we saw. Hydras fight goliaths, queens fight tanks.
Just want to point out that Zelot's build was 9 hatch, 9 overlord, 9 pool. Maybe to combat 8 rax?
It's apparently in vogue vs Terran.
What a long 30 min game! It was fun and challenging to watch. As we can see, both sides are very good players. Mass queen, wow. This game is awesome!
12:15 Do you think that a pro player can distinguish which valk the scourge are following just by the movements and snipe them by splitting another valk from the group?
Great map, awesome game! Glad you're feeling better Artosis, welcome back!
Loving these games and your casts RT. Welcome back.
Welcome back to the action!
Happy you’re feeling better!! 😊🎉 glad you’re back
I'm so psyched for this ASL season. I know this is a TvZ, but I am really hoping Snow takes it all. He looks unstoppable in recent games
This was a really fun watch. Thanks for the cast Arty! On a slightly tangential question, do Zerg ever use Devourers? I feel like I've never seen them in modern sc comp, but I avoid zvz so maybe that's why? Is the unit bad?
Sometimes they are used vs carriers
if that's the type of games we're going to get at ASL I'm excited
Thank you for the great content as always.
i have to watch everything, keep em comin arty
Artosis Casts is back!
This was the first Starcraft 1 game I ever watched casted. Been watching Starcraft 2 for a decade now, just never got into the original. To think that a game that hasn't been updated in 25 years still has creativity and problem solving going on and new metas being discovered....
This game was fantastic. ASL is gonna be hype!
Every time Arty has chills Im getting contact chills
BEAST MODE !!! Both side played with amazing mastery !
glad ur back and feeling better!
Awesome match!!

Was shocked he didn’t go queen hunting with the valks! Was screaming at my tv!

Welcome back Artosis!
Thanks for the great content !
CHILLS TASTELESS CHILLS
i dont even play starcraft so excuse my ignorance, why aren't valkyrie used as counter to queens?
They don't fire fast enough.
Hey Artosis. Commenting because you told me lol. But just a suggestion of what I want to see. How about casting some of your ladder matches every now and then? Thanks.
Im here one more day. Thakns arty
ASL SOON BRO!!!!! TEN MORE DAYS LET'S GO
Would a full group of valkyrie not be the solution to mass queens??
Queens vs mech, always exciting
That is the 1st game where I see a Mech Terran win in this ASL pro gamer setting... maybe the Irradiate was actually a really good choice over EMPing, he constantly reduced the Queens by that
Are valks too gas intensive to add in vultureless-mech against mass queen? Or the priority for science vessels is justified by their spells?
Vessels are just better, Valk's big benefit is their ability to deal with clumps of air units, and Queens do not clump up especially when they get their spawn broodlings command. A queen can move in, spawn, and move out before a valk kills them.
Vessels can emp, d-matrix, irradiate and detect, which gives them an immense amount of utility. Just doesn't make sense to burn production time on Valks lategame (unless you expect a muta switch)

nice to see queens but really threw away so many hydras, could've added in some lings when there were no vultures too
Can't wait for season 17!
chills @ 18:51
wow terran was running the show that you thought at some point was gonna go down
I think against heavy goliath, no vulture type mech zerg also needs to go dark swarm so the hydras can fight for a bit longer
Where were the defillers....
Always love seeing mech vs Zerg
Weirdest thing, I do not remember Queens from SC1 at all and I played this game day 1
Nice to see some late game action from zealot!!
This was a super interesting match. The map is different from what we usually see, and the unit combination for Light at the start was so cool, came out with everything basically. Really well played on both sides.
tryin' ta be helpful for the algorithm or summin' with muh commentin'
thx arty fer makin all dem vidyas!
Why would you throw your first 2 valks like that lol
Great game, well done RT.
awesome
just pure beauty
thanks
Still wondering why zerg didn't add some defilers... All terran units are ranged.
Getting hype for ASL. I don't even watch SC2 any longer, but can't get enough of BW 😁
Hey arty, why don't more terran players do this kind of valkyrie rush build?

Wow what a game!
He parasited some of the tanks, but I didn't see if he parasited the vessels.
If light and flash are sooooooo good why didn’t Blizzard name units after them like Zealot?
9:50 Why is it relevant that "hold position" is used for the lurkers? They're burrowed.
they cant autoattack when theyre held
What bloodsuckern said. Basically with hold position you can allow the enemy to walk over your lurkers without knowing and you can then order the lurkers to attack when it's too late for them to flee or spread out.
since ally to stop attack is against the rules, hold position lurkers are to stop auto attacking to lure them into bad position.
@@Repetoire What ally? This is one-on-one. I don't follow what you're saying.
Flying queens? I'm missing something
I don't think this was such great game. ZeLot got real lazy the last 10 minutes. just throwing away his armies for peanuts.
Anyway nice cast, love the channel!
Did they know they were playing each other? Lights name looks recognizable, but Zelot is playing on a bar code 😕
Damn fine game, sir!
Vulkires gettin f'ed up 😂 "cough cough, excuse me" come on arty!!!!
wow that was amazing
HI Artosis.
Thank you so much for all your casts. Absolutely love them.

what a crazy beaytiful zerg game! Feel the swarm!
The new jungle maps are impressive.
Amateurs do strategy; professionals do logistics.
Light is sooo strong, halfway through when Zelot wiped all Light's tanks I was certain he will loose, but damn what a skill and commitment. GG!
I thought zelot was going to lose when that happened, all the value he gained was lost in the hydras he sac'd you cant hold up 6 bases and have enough for map control.
Crazy how much the algorithm does affect your vids because it completely stopped suggesting them until like a week after you started posting again
I think mass queens is so stylish, but seems not to be very effective, or maybe too hard to pull out
Mario chomped down onto Luigi's ana
I wonder if the Zerg should instead just broodling the goliaths when they are screening for the tanks that hard. Maybe once the goliath count is reduced you can hydra bomb the tanks with overlord drops like Protoss does with zealots? IDK.
Seems like ZeLoT in this game just ran his queens face first into the goliaths multiple times. He still got value out of them, even still.
How to be a great terran in scbw?
Are ultras bad vs mech?
They are not very good against tanks
Artosis, don't apologise for coughing, mate. It isn't rude or whatsoever 🤘
Strange that terran stopped producing valks. 6-7 of them could be the end of the queens menace
Flying the queens to die into missile turrets doesn't feel like the right call... waiting until the push comes seems like it would be the play.
I wish there would be more switch to mech in macro games. Vults with mines, tanks are very strong vs ling, defiler, lulker...
It is a little ridiculous that spawn broodling works on siege tanks but not on reavers
Makes sense in terms of the game lore, and obviously in terms of game balance as well. What's your complaint then?
@myconpodship protoss's long range ground unit is immune, while terrans is not
@@john-ic9vj So? There are good reasons for both.
Why can’t why patch SC1 so you start with the same amount of workers like SC2? Would that break the game ? Wouldn’t we have faster games like SC2? Which is better ?

Looks like pretty sloppy play from the Zerg. Who pushes Hydras into tank lines like that without thinking??
Queens just deleting armies are so beautiful!
Seems like there were enough close engagements where the cost efficiency of cracklings would have cleaned up. At least provided additional targets for the goliaths to buy more queen spellcasting time. I really liked the parasite for the vision, allowing spell casting splits while controlling elsewhere.
Guess who’s back? Back again? Tosis back! Tell a friend!
