Spoiler alert!!!
The chat at the end of game 1 says,
Dark : Draw??
Byun : lol
Byun : Not coming?
Dark : Never
Byun : lol
Dark : Not even if you give a million won
Byun : Let's call it a draw
vibe
Oh come on they could've clashed
i don't get why they called a draw. i didn't think that would be allowed in a finals match?
@@anthonybarajas2838 What I believe they were saying is that both thought attacking was a losing move so both would just sit their side of the map. Nothing would ever happen because whoever attacks loses. So draw. Or play until 1 guy just falls asleep I guess.
First game reminded me of that Einstein quote: I know not with what weapons world war 3 will be fought, but world war 4 will be fought with sticks and stones
"Best Game of the Year" Counter: 273
There are a lot of years. Looking forward to see number 2000.
Expect a lot more. It's only mid May.
But he's never wrong
Best game of the day
I mean this isn't the best game of the year. It's the best FINAL of the year. Different counter required :)
Using hellbats to damage a structure is “the Terran equivalent of keying someone’s car” lol damn Lowko that’s a good one XD
Lowko loving and hating the mutas in game 1 was hilarious.
“31 MUTAS !?”
“Ok certainly he’s done- MORE MUTAS !?” 😂😂
Best of 5, over 2 hour video. Here we go! :D
Lowko "Best Game of the Year?!"
Also Lowko: "I don't want to overhype it."
Hey lowko. Love the vids. Suggestion: on match starts, describe the map advantages and disadvantages vs the specific matchup. Thanks for the vids. Love the 45min+ ones
he does that sometimes, but it doesnt usually give any worthwhile info. if a map has a heavy advantage, then pros veto it. otherwise its mostly 50 50
Lowko. They didn't send you the replays because the replays are that good. They sent you the replays because _you're_ that good
wow game #1, was not expecting that ending!!
Gave Lowko a thumbs up for this one.. long matches, tough job! Well done, buddy!
Parents: Have you seen that new Netflix show?
Me: No, have you seen Dark vs Byun?
Not only a great series, also top notch Lowko commentary :) broodling rain was was my favorite!
Need some translator heroes!! Honestly, these games are making me want to learn Korean. I looked up a "how to read Korean" RUclips video after some long chats in a previous match. lol
Byun got completely outplayed in game 1 against the mass muta, completely bizarre, Maru and Clem would laugh at that kinda of game
I think he got so focused on how well the tanks did during the mid game that somehow mines never came to mind, probably because he was tilted. Really strange game but my goodness was that memorable.
@@natecw4164 i think he hyperfocused on liberators as the counter when mines, thors, or even marines would have done better
@@Jdog-tt8qe yeah how that didn't cross his mind when building his 40th turret is beyond me 😂
Two hours of Lowko casting professional SC2 finals? Is it Christmas already?
Hahahhaa that chocolate rain reference got me good
Dark was playing with his feet, using his hands to lull his kid to sleep. It will take some time before he becomes as proficient as with his hands.
I heard Dark has three feet
I am surprised Lowko until the end apparently didn't fully understand what Dark was doing with the Mutas. He got SO MUCH value from one-shotting the siege tanks and harrassing the ghosts - which are good against almost everything, but Mutas not so much! - before walking in with the Ultras. It's a brilliant idea, which I feel has even more potential to give Zerg another option in late-game ZvT.
Although it didn't amount to much, I have to call attention to Dark's 200IQ play of weaving the initial muta swarm through all the turrets and picking out all the tanks to clear the way for the upcoming ultras.
Dude the ending of match one is insane! Wtf!
"24⁰C!? Ai ya yai ya yai."
Me looking at my AC set at 25⁰C: 😐
I think Lowko will melt here.
Lowko might be incinerated where I am (Australia). A day in the low 30s in summer is considered “cool”. 🤣🤣
1:57:51 "we don't talk about stamina of programers very much"
Also goodguy Lowko: *talks about it in each long match-up*
The wow at 1:50:26 from Lowko, genuine impressed!
The word "meme" certainly existed in 2008. At least in the 4chan circles.
The word "meme" is a concept proposed by Richard Dawkins long before memes appeared on the Internet. In his proposal, the "meme" is the most basic element of culture to share, like a "gene" with genetic information or a "bit" with computational data.
Later, in the early 90s, the "internet meme" first appeared when Mike Godwin talked about how such "memes" were spread through email, forums, etc.
Finally, during the new millennium, globalization allows people to access the digital era where social media have a great impact on the way, speed and breadth of dissemination of these "memes".
@@MarlotteTR memes the DNA of the soul
I didn't expect a 2 hours video, today's a lucky day
Dark at 1:33:08: 'Noone saw that'
I think the thing that Lowko's missing is that the mutas weren't just "against terran late game". Dark was very specifically hunting down tanks and ghosts, i.e the things that would kill the ultraling composition that he would swing to after the mutas. He was essentially repeatedly clearing out the counters to ultraling so he could do damage with that.
Dit aan het kijken op mn balkon op de zonnige namiddag met een hele dikke jonko. Bedankt lowko.
When translated to English you said “very fat youngster” I really wonder what that means when translated properly XD
@@p.p.wienersson I meant a joint, I like your name P. P. Wienersson
I love that they spent 40 minutes, just to re-play the map
22:56 "HE MAKES MORE!!!" xD
Hey Lowko, Been a fan for years. I've probably watched about 75-85% of everything you have produced over that time. However I have found myself not watching as much lately, maybe just all the tournaments that have been going on. Not a criticism at all, just giving you some feed back on my watching habits if it happens to relate to a trend. Always enjoy seeing you cast at the big tournaments.
1:18: Lowko the prophet
I always liked Dark's play-style, but after that first game I'm a fan.
This is going to be one of the few series - and one of the videos over 2 hours - I watch on multiple channels just because it’s just that wild
Delightful commentary!
7:50 Dark the « Hatch-dra » ( Hatch Hydra 😂😂 ) ✨✨. Love it !
1:41:00 I didn't take those attacks to be desperate, I took them as just trying to stop Byun from being able to expand ever: stop the deathball from popping up while mining Byun's bases
The video duration got me concerned over each player's, especially Micro Jackson's, wrists.
ooh!
a movie sized "craziest grand finals ever" featuring Dark and BuyN?!?! sure
*I'm glad I started this where I can finish this in one sitting* lol Thanks Lowko!
holy crap, that "first game" was great!
24 Celsius is 75 Fahrenheit, you're welcome
Dark is matchfixing, not mining gas on 11 and 5 o'clock based deliberately to lose game 1. He's basically like Life, the only difference is he didn't get caught.
yea sherlock i think you got a case (sarcasm)
@@ashesofaranea1:33:18 Detonating his own banelings, ever heard of man who did that? He's called Life(not sarcasm)
Yeah. Why blame it on lack of sleep common in parenthood when you can go full conspiranoic?
Game 1 is crazy ! This game is amazing !
Lowko: aye aye aye, 24 °C, I'm melting
Me watching at 40 °C in Mexico: it's fine🔥🐕☕
Thanks for the great cast!
When you look at top level starcraft the micro and macro factors of the game make it next to impossible to comprehend the skill involved.
That first match was just crazy. It's like to neanderthals saying ugh ugh, dropping their fists, and just slugging it out
what if you go into view for one player will observer chat be visible then?
2 hours of Lowko casting a TvZ... and no wild immortal shinanigans, incredible!
Queen, Ravage, Infestor, Viper, Broodlords, Banelings and walking spores. Dark is a madman!
I already know what's going to happen, I just have to watch another caster cast it lol
instead of 'rock paper scissors' -> 'ling bane bane'
one doesn't beat the other its just catchy to say / hear
"ling-bane-bane , ling-banebane"
1:29:16 Kelvin is the metric system! You ought to know how to do that conversion! Kelvin = Celsius + 272.15.
Though to be fair, not many people in the US even know what Rankine is, let alone how to convert it from Fahrenheit.
273.15 actually. not 272.15.
Rankine is completely unnecessary and almost useless in modern reality
@@cyberkekosis See, that's what I thought, but I googled it just before commenting just to make sure it was 273.15, and it told me, right in the url bar, 272.15. I should go with my gut. :(
"Modern reality" is a strange phrase. When did _reality_ enter modernity?
everyone is looking for matches with this mod! ive played myself a couple on my youtube channel! cheers keep it up!
In germany we use Celsius as well btw
when you open BO5 video and see 2 hours in timeline
In the first game they were asking for a draw, and said they won't go away for a 100 million (currency)
Dark should keep it up with the mass muta strategy
why is Serral doing military service? they have that in Finland too? 🤔
I wish that after agreeing to a draw, they just played it out anyway. So much buildup of tension, and such an anticlimax.
SPOILER from the first game:
I used google translate to translate the end of the first game and basically they said that none of them was gonna push, so they decided to draw, chat was like:
TalonDark : Draw??
Byun : lol. Thougts? Not coming?
TalonDark : Im thinking to come (joke)
Byun : lol
TalonDark : Not coming even if you give a million won
Byun : draw. let's do it. gg
great series
"Sometimes when I'm feeling extra crazy I'll have a diet coke at like 10pm ... even though there's some caffeine in it" -Lowko the party animal
Does someone know what they said in game 1 im curious now
Dark offers a draw. Byun asks him if he is not coming. Dark says no. There is a comment somewhere with the translation. I missed it lol
Game 1: why use creep tumors, just use hatcheries, keeps Queen energy up.
An agreed draw... super rare!
Can we have full version of Broodling Rain?
In todays episode of Lowko teaches science we talk about Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin.
all of these games were great, best set ive watched since innovation vs serral
Me oh a new loco video I can spend 20 to 40 minutes on this lowko How about two hours? . . . Me, changing my plans time to lay in the bed for two hours, watching Lowko.
checks time of video...
pees, goes to get food and drink, gets comfy.
Nobody bother me for a while
Thanks for the video, Lowko. Happy Mother’s Day every one! ❤❤❤
Lowko as usual rizzin up Dark 😭😭
Omg that first game!
26:35 je suis d'accord avec toi ! Malgré qu'on a l'impression que buyn est ultra Large en ressources et en efficacité il n'a pas de réserve et atteint difficilement son maximum
Et que dire de l'économie de masse de dark qui est sans fin 😱
Dark is just here for the lulz and I am just here for dark
Nice to see Byun win for a change, lol :D
"Oh Jimmy... no."
that's amazing
If mules cost 1 supply while they're on the battlefield, that might reduce the turtley-ness of Terran just a bit - they'd still be extremely powerful, without being borderline broken in the very late game.
Also, Lowko, do you ever cast with the SC1 music enabled? The old Terran music is so freaking good
freaking epic!
Spoiler break
> 50 minutes
> 0- ByuN
> 0- Dark
> Game 2
I don't know about best, but it's definitely cursed.
It took me like 5 days to watch this series.
AI casting a starcraft game would really be interesting.
@10:02 "My God" - Lowko
you should do a top 10 game of the year at the end of the year
What a game!!!
New build order confirmed. 3 hatch, pool, 2 more hatch, bane nest, 2 more hatch, then make a unit. Should do great on the ladder.
would like… five swarm hosts be a good end game choice for Zerg? Just create some good guaranteed free damage?
I think game #4 could have been a Dark win, if it weren't for terran comeback mechanics, like low minerals = mass mules.
I would assume that Kevin is around normal body temperature, so that 24 C is about 0.66 Kevin.
Finally some 2hours gameplay 😆
Higher unit quality = better unit density
2 hours?!?
What a game 👍gg
Serral went to the military? I hope they at least offered him the position of a general.
Someone so intelligent would be such a huge waste as a footsoldier!
he did the thing!
If you'd be brave enough to do math while streaming again, you may add 273.15 to any Celsius degrees and you'll get Kelvins :D
Byun really slowed this series down. It was really good, then Terran gonna Terran.
I have never seen anything like that... ❤
At the highest level it feels like TvZ isn't quite balanced. Bio seems so strong and ghosts can answer almost everything zerg has late game with snipes.
42:46 did you just snap your fingers to transition to ByuN? xD
