  • Apparently Serral is a cheeser in StarCraft 2? In this video I cast three best-of-3's that he has recently played at HomeStory Cup 22.

    Once again, welcome to learning with Lowko!
    The facts:
    -There's an amazing restaurant called "Cheeky Cheese" that serves deep fried Mutalisk wings and nice toasty Zergling legs. (Try the wings, they're delicious!)
    -Overseers have at least 6 eyes on their carapace.
    -"According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a Mutalisk should be able to fly. The Mutalisk, of course, flies anyways. Because the Zerg are a hyper-evolved race that do not care what Terrans think is possible."
    And one more thing! Lowko, if you think the Mutalisks are unrealistic ask yourself this: how do Drones fly?

    • @DanStaal
      @DanStaal Год назад +7

      The Zerg obviously have anti-gravity tech which they use in multiple places. The drone, the mutalisk, the corruptor, the leviathan - all would require anti-gravity to operate as they do. (Probably broodlords as well - overseers likely could do without, I think.)

      I always thought all the zerg flyers had some kind of gas balloons in them, and that the mutalisk wings were only for maneuverability. That and/or they are all psikers, lifting themselves through telekinesis.

    • @infested4494
      @infested4494 Год назад +2

      ​@@DanStaal For the drone, they fart on the ground. Since they constantly do that, it allows them to float over the ground, and so they can swim.
      Quote From The Starcraft Wiki: "Drones move by hovering above the ground using a float bladder[3] (factoring this in, a drone stands nearly as tall as a terran wearing CMC armor).[4] This peculiar organ emits a low-frequency energy field that disrupts gravity around the drone. The creature then "swims" through the air by undulating its body and using some of the excess energy as a means of propulsion."
      Maybe the other air units also have a float bladder?

  • @Z7Sakari

    I’ve always imagined that the top portion of the Mutalisk that curves upward can partially fill with gas to keep them buoyant in a similar way to the overlord, and those undersized wings are mostly for propulsion.

    For a player of Serral's caliber, who has already conquered the vast majority fo his goals and left his mark on the game, it makes sense to deviate from his "serious" usuall gameplay. Serral imo has refined his macro and tournament game playstyle to such an extend as to allow himself the opportunity to explore cheesy builds and approaches. After all he who remains stagnant, dies. Also, if you are a good macro player (good as in the top 5 for the past years) you can try cheesing, whilst the reverse is not that easy.. He is the GOAT of EU players of SC if not worldwide.Also, Lowko, thanks for the amazing quality content , as always!!

    • @cameronmiller6240
      @cameronmiller6240 Год назад +2

      If you watch the previous video loco posted serral is in a similar situation, the oracles can’t really “push the zerglings away” because serrals micro is too good, they just run around the bases and dart back in as soon as the pulsar beams are turned off. Even IF the zerglings disappeared harstem was down a full base, multiple queens, spores have started (harstem couldn’t see the production tab but you can guarantee serral is macroing perfectly during this)…it’s not like harstem was dead when he gged but his chances of winning were effectively zero.
