@@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.

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
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.
41:30 Lowko doesn't speak Korean and neither do I so I ran this through google translator image translation and then text translation and this is what I got; 무승부?? tie?? ㅋ lol 올 생각 없음? No plans to come? 갈생각 없죠 I have no intention of going ㅋ lol 100만원줘도 안가요 I won't go even if you give me 1 million won 무승부 tie 하자 let's do it
Even though I don't play Starcraft 2 often, it really peaks my interest to watch Stream Cast from your vids, Man. I played Starcraft 1 before, so I understand how complicated it is to play this game. Keep it up, Man!
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.
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.
@@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?
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
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.
Terran does have very good units to counter mutas. For bio builds it's the humble marine, for mech it's either the cyclone or thor depending on the version: battle and standard respectively. There is also the viking of course. However when Terrans enter the very late game they typically stick to mostly ghosts and liberators, neither of which is particularly great against mutas. Actually making a late game muta switch a very viable tactic as Dark showed in game 1.
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.
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
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 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".
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
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.
Dark's muta usage was brilliant in game 1 but I was so frustrated by him throwing away 30 banelings for an orbital at a base with few minerals left. He just needed to focus on mining out the bottom right base as much as possible, as long as he mined two more bases than the Terran he could afford to simply sit back, defend his bases with baneling packs while harassing the Terran and keeping him on the back foot with his mutalisks. If he had mined out the bottom right base it would have been completely over after Byun failed to kill his top left.
at the end of G1 Dark-" Draw?? ByuN- "Thoughts"... "None?" Dark - "It's a good idea to go"... "I won't go even if yopu give me 1 million Won" (korean currency) Byun- "Draw."... "Let's do it" GG
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.
Sounds like even Lowko gets bored of his own commentary a little after the hour mark. I switched over to a video by another caster at that point. Great games.
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 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.
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
something lowko keeps forgetting: terran also has to build a shiitload of buildings which also cost resources to produce theor units, unlike zerg. unless they are destroyed they dont show up in resources lost, but obviously those are also resourses that do not do any actual fighting.
It's been a few years since I've last played / watched SC2. Still amazing how much multitasking & micro-ing these players do. SPOILER ALERT: ------- ------- My noob brain was thinking in all the matches: "oh the zerg is clearly winning ez gg", but then the defense from Byun was amazing. Wave after wave and you feel like every small mistake can cost the match. So It looks like playing zerg is a mandatory super-aggressive game you need to perform which can be exhausting because you need more brain power to process everything that's going down. So GG to both of them, but terran wins it.
Spoiler alert!!!
The chat at the end of game 1 says,

Using hellbats to damage a structure is “the Terran equivalent of keying someone’s car” lol damn Lowko that’s a good one XD
"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 :)
Lowko loving and hating the mutas in game 1 was hilarious.
“31 MUTAS !?”
“Ok certainly he’s done- MORE MUTAS !?” 😂😂
Five. Hundred. Mutas.
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
Best of 5, over 2 hour video. Here we go! :D

Not only a great series, also top notch Lowko commentary :) broodling rain was was my favorite!
Lowko "Best Game of the Year?!"
Also Lowko: "I don't want to overhype it."
41:30 Lowko doesn't speak Korean and neither do I so I ran this through google translator image translation and then text translation and this is what I got;
무승부?? tie??
ㅋ lol

갈생각 없죠 I have no intention of going

100만원줘도 안가요 I won't go even if you give me 1 million won
무승부 tie
하자 let's do it
Gave Lowko a thumbs up for this one.. long matches, tough job! Well done, buddy!
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
Even though I don't play Starcraft 2 often, it really peaks my interest to watch Stream Cast from your vids, Man. I played Starcraft 1 before, so I understand how complicated it is to play this game.
Keep it up, Man!
wow game #1, was not expecting that ending!!

byun forgot about mines
"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”. 🤣🤣
Two hours of Lowko casting professional SC2 finals? Is it Christmas already?
I didn't expect a 2 hours video, today's a lucky day
1:57:51 "we don't talk about stamina of programers very much"
Also goodguy Lowko: *talks about it in each long match-up*
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

The mini map looked like TvZ late game by minute 8 in game 1. Absolutely bonkers how fast they both expanded.

Best of 3 starts at 1:25:45 for those with little time on their hands.
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

great series!
2 hours of Lowko casting a TvZ... and no wild immortal shinanigans, incredible!
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
I always liked Dark's play-style, but after that first game I'm a fan.
at the end of G1
Dark-" Draw??

Queen, Ravage, Infestor, Viper, Broodlords, Banelings and walking spores. Dark is a madman!

That first match was just crazy. It's like to neanderthals saying ugh ugh, dropping their fists, and just slugging it out
In todays episode of Lowko teaches science we talk about Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin.

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
@10:02 "My God" - Lowko
Lowko as usual rizzin up Dark 😭😭
all of these games were great, best set ive watched since innovation vs serral
when you open BO5 video and see 2 hours in timeline
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.
something lowko keeps forgetting: terran also has to build a shiitload of buildings which also cost resources to produce theor units, unlike zerg. unless they are destroyed they dont show up in resources lost, but obviously those are also resourses that do not do any actual fighting.
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.
An agreed draw... super rare!
Years work differently in the Koprulu Sector. Can have up to 7 games per 1 of our years.
In germany we use Celsius as well btw
would like… five swarm hosts be a good end game choice for Zerg? Just create some good guaranteed free damage?
I already know what's going to happen, I just have to watch another caster cast it lol
I have to say I was a little disappointed at 54:54. And you'd know why
Mutas made out of paper, but can shrug off multiple missiles and regenerate rapidly.
Game 1: why use creep tumors, just use hatcheries, keeps Queen energy up.
It's been a few years since I've last played / watched SC2. Still amazing how much multitasking & micro-ing these players do.
SPOILER ALERT:
-------
-------
My noob brain was thinking in all the matches: "oh the zerg is clearly winning ez gg", but then the defense from Byun was amazing. Wave after wave and you feel like every small mistake can cost the match. So It looks like playing zerg is a mandatory super-aggressive game you need to perform which can be exhausting because you need more brain power to process everything that's going down.
So GG to both of them, but terran wins it.
