That was a good showcase of a use for Ultras. If you lower the ghost count after trading out your army, a remax on Ultra ling bane can just hammer through the opponent. Dark did an amazing job with multipronged attacks with nydus and run-bys.
Lol so many people are complaining about the casters, I like zombigrub. Steadfast seems a bit new to this and is finding his place on funniness vs information etc
I like zombiegrub, she knows her shit. It's FearDragon that annoys me, the things he says are stupid and his voice just pisses me off. I can't watch anything with him commentating.
I've seen Dark do this to Clem too, where he has this freaking killer instinct to just jump on his opponent right before he is ready and catch him off guard, it's like he studied them so much he knows where they are on the map w/o vision. Insane
Yeah, sorry if my comment above sounds confusing but both of them are great, Dark was really good in this. I'm just too used to see great play from my boi Maru XD Oh and thanks for the upload, really appreciate your videos @SC2HL
I thought Zombiegrub did a pretty good job casting, here. Also, you usually see ultras flopping because they just... fucking die and do nothing, and even in this game where there were points where they were just getting swatted down like flies, Dark was managing to accomplish something else somewhere on the map to make up for the losses somewhere else, I think that's where he ultimately out-paced Maru.
Yep, the ultras ate a lot of ghost energy but other stuff was getting done as a result. Enough ultras to keep the ghosts pinned down but enough lings and support to swarm the other forces.

It's always satisfying to see a zerg somehow weather all the bullshit a terran can throw at them and then gradually take the terran apart. Well played.
Sad that with all the ling/banes, not even Maru can make Hellbats a useable counter to soak up the damage and fry them. Definitely need to bring stimmed sc1 firebats back.
Honestly don't know if I like Steadfast as a caster here. I saw no reason for him to emphasize Maru's mistake in losing those ghosts so much that one time, and bring it up again later. You could hear Zombiegrub being hesitant whether to agree or move on. Also, Maru losing was mostly because he didn't lift his 8th base cc, unnecessarily lost 28 scvs to banelings and also lost 5~6 ghosts at the front line because he was out of position, that it all scaled. Perhaps I see a need for him to scrutinize the game more and have respect for the players?
you mean the transparent Sponsor icon in the top right or the icon showing what match it is in the Tourney on the bottom left? cause those are the only thing that arent direct game related.
Steadfast gives me the confidence i need to go on. Imagine being absolutely clueless, trying to hint at things or a "famous adage" that a caster who's been around for years, and has played at a very high level, has absolutely no idea what you're talking about, "The G word"...I'm not even going to get into that one. Embarrassing. Don't do that again, for your sake, and the fans. "little bit sus"? Ultras were absolutely perfect after the ghost count had been reduced to soak energy for a remax. HARD focusing on a single mistake made, repeatedly and just over all being generally awkward, so much so, that you legitimately ruin the other casters ability to analyze and talk, CONTINUALLY getting lost trying to think of examples or metaphors. yet STILL get the opportunity to cast a game and have it uploaded. Steadfast being allowed to cast this is definitive proof that, as long as we DONT act like this, we can achieve anything.
He was, basically not at his top level during this tournament. The lost to Bunny earlier by YOLO his Medivac into Bunny base, and then let Dark popping Nydus into his main this game, Maru wasnt playing his best SC2.
This game just shows how broken zerg is. DRG loses 15+ drones to start the game and still manages to have a bigger army and more reinforcements mere minutes later.
Sc2 has become a joke man. Wings of liberty was the best. They change the game every few weeks... Do they have flying, teleporting, splash damage probes yet?? Sounds like theyd do that
The announcers said it! As long as Dark makes lings he’s gonna win the game! I think Dark is a great player but Maru is easily a cut or two above him as a player. Still can’t beat those lings though.
Maru was too happy to switch to Ghost early. They are good but not great against what Dark had which is Ravager Lingbane. Pure Bio Tank Mines army would crush what Dark had.
This shows how imbalance ZvP are even for Maru!! Where are the static defense for the Terran?? Don't even dare tell me planetary do the job because they don't clearly !! There should be auto turrets (remove them from ravens and replace with mech healing disk) Flaming Betties helllllo!!!! Also tanks should Always be behind bunkers the only reason players bring them infront is because Terran doesn't have a reliable moving AOE !! Banshee if they had their barrage ability would do the trick! Mines are on a cooldown base and the mech unit that replaces firebats is just plain bad without its ability smart servos!! Also for God's sake ghost should have their double shot ability in place of that steady targeting and why for the love of God we don't see players snipe the overseer (should kill 1 shot with that double tap ability) so that they can clock safely !!!!
I’d feel bad if Terran ever used bunkers. It’s honestly pretty weird that they won’t burn minerals to kill 5 banelings, or refund them if they want. Did no one play command and conquer?
Is the female announcer a pro level player? I honestly ask only because she has a VERY condescending tone and seems to really enjoy when she thinks a pro level player made a mistake. She has a jovial tone like she revels in it. ESPECIALLY when she casts Scarlett. It's like, MEOW!!!! FR though, if she isn't PRO LEVEL, maybe she needs to take it down a notch.
You don't need to be a PRO PLAYER to understand the strategies and nuances of the game. The best players in the world of any sport all have coaches which are nowhere near their skill level. Casting and playing are two completely different worlds.
Made a mistake with the lower third at the beginning (DRG vs. Serral) - Make sure to tune into the TSL 8 finals this weekend: twitch.tv/tlnet
5??
11:04 the hero bc, the one who has seen it all, the one who had over 40 kills, falls by corrosive biles landing at its jumping point.
Damn bad way to go. Imagine the crew of that ship had no idea they were worping into their deaths
Hated to see it go, but love the skill at landing them perfectly the instant it comes out of warp.
I love the skins we see in pro matches, havent seen as many different ones in one match before.
I'm a simple man, I see Battlecruiser's and I press like!
Same lol 😂
same same
You’re a simple weeb
You see hentai anime pillow
You buy!
It’s just “battlecruisers” no need for an apostrophe. It’s not possessive.

Yeah, when you have mined 10,000 more resources than your opponent you get 5 or 6 attempts at it where you can bungle your army and remax.
@@peterhardie4151 being able to make 40 units simultaneously isn't bad either. Or build one army did a tech switch. Pretty helpful
@@Gil-Galad yep, not only the easiest race to build a huge bank but also the easiest race to spend a huge bank. Good point.
That gonswa comment by ZombieGrub made my day hahaha
Feel like watching the last campain mission of the Zerg when they went to the capital to hunt down the Mesk, pretty mere game for Maru :^)
Dark also just played crazy good this game
Yeah, sorry if my comment above sounds confusing but both of them are great, Dark was really good in this. I'm just too used to see great play from my boi Maru XD Oh and thanks for the upload, really appreciate your videos @SC2HL
@@SC2HL this is how I always imagined how Zerg should win its very lore accurate
The turrning points imo:
2:47
8:10
Thanks for highlighting these!
I thought he was going in a wayyy different direction with "the G-word"
Those scvs have some crazy long screwdrivers, honestly impressive that they can even hold them
when dark catch's you slipping mans like a kid in a candy store he just doesn't let up
The "small audio issue with casters" was them yelling "HOLY FUCK ItS A BC RUSH." jk but itd be funny
If I see a pro game with BCs, then it’s for me! Love BC games
Battelcruiser + Rush = Top Content
Damn serral and drg playing insane
ooohhhhhh myyyyy goodddddddd that voiceeeee...nails across a chalkboard
Battle cruiser is always my favorite rush so whenever I see the word battlecruiser in youtube I just click
I thought Zombiegrub did a pretty good job casting, here.

What Kind of Skin is that? Units Look phenomenal
Gosh, darks macro is like God, don’t know how he injects non stop
Most pros have macros for it I believe
9:56 sus XD
The gongwa 🤣🤣
I am simple man.
I see battlecruiser
I click like.
zombiegrub way better than steadfast lol
Where can we watch full games of this?
So weird to see Maru lose. GG though.
Hide yo ghosts hide yo SCVs cuz Dark all up in your base up here!
More like Dark’s ultralisk bust, eh?
cursed subtitles at 8:44
I may be weird but I'd much rather watch the full game without edits casted. Do you have a chance for that?
I like Battlecruisers but I get the feeling every time Maru uses them for a rush he loses... He says in interviews that he hates them
They are just too easy to counter now.
Zerg OP
Not a reupload? I must be seeing things.
It was played yesterday so I doubt it
It's always satisfying to see a zerg somehow weather all the bullshit a terran can throw at them and then gradually take the terran apart. Well played.
Yeah insane to see zerg throwing billions a moved crap and win
@@adrienperret9473 If a terran loses to a race that basically has inefficient units and no anti-air, they have nobody to blame but themselves. ^_^
When I hear "battlecruiser rush" I imagine more than just the 1 BC... Did anyone else feel mislead?
yep, that was completely misleading
@@Sirwastealot it was a bc rush, not a mass bc play. bc spawned at around 5:25 which is standard rush timing.
@@krispywater I always thought a "rush" with some unit meant you had a group of those units that you rushed with. Maybe i understood it wrong.
@@Sirwastealot ngl, I was expecting maru to go up to 3 bc's at least before going into mech, but was sort of disappointed with just the one 🙃
I’d argue this is a battlecruiser opening, or a battlecruiser harass. I, too, think that battlecruiser rush involves more than one BC.
...For the swarrrm
GG
WTf? I’ve gotten the same ad for google 12 fucking times during this video.
That really shouldn’t happen, or the settings for ads shouldn’t have that happen. Sorry
🔥🔥
Zombiegrub is soo unharismatic person. I mean caster is not her life-buisness
Maru loses? My day is ruined.
Dont be misled by the title. This BC rush still lost.
Sad that with all the ling/banes, not even Maru can make Hellbats a useable counter to soak up the damage and fry them. Definitely need to bring stimmed sc1 firebats back.
Yeah I was thinking the same
saving you some time, Zerg wins

Steadfast aint a big Maru fan, I think hes bias over EU players mostly, and his KR fav are Zest and Cure.
Yeah he's an awful caster
There is way too much on the screen that's not the game, feels very uncomfortable to watch
you mean the transparent Sponsor icon in the top right or the icon showing what match it is in the Tourney on the bottom left?
cause those are the only thing that arent direct game related.
This female caster is being held back by the male caster. She casts this great but they have poor chemistry

Good lord this Steadfast guy is trying way too hard to be funny and failing.
Ultras into throw rofl
Just me, or did Maru seem really off this game?

Found the incel. "omg a female she obviously doesn't know anything"
seriously? a chick commenting???
This woman commentator is the worst, please don't take her
