@@GameDogLeader21 it's a steep learning curve, seeing Marc troll 'high' level players is much more fun. Starting out is similar to suffering the Thermy defeat. You barely understand what just happened. Campaign could be fun, though.
I've heard a saying; "the world's greatest swordsman doesn't fear the second best, he fears the worst because he has no idea what the idiot will do" which kind of crystallizes these things. The opponent is already well prepared for anything smart so doing something slightly stupid is going to throw them off balance and give you the edge.
“Me, I’m dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. It’s the honest ones you have to look out for. Cause you never know when they’re about to do something incredibly stupid.”
Eh.. that's not really true though. I mean, if you've watched him play vs. Serral for instance, Serral absolutely destroys him when he tries goofy builds and it isn't even close. This isn't a case of catching players better than he is off guard and beating them because of an unconventional strategy - this is beating players that are way way worse than he is in spite of using a weak strategy, and he would've had a much easier time beating them if he had played standard.
@@asdfqwerty14587 I mean, he did beat harstem in one of these games, and harstem is around the same level as uThermal. So I definitely think he is beating some players at roughly his level. The thing he doesn't show is his winrate with these strategies. If the strategy has a 33% winrate, it's just not a strategy that you would ever take to a tournament. And it wouldn't surprise me if some of these builds were lower than 33%.

"it obviously *sounds* pretty ridiculous to fly a starport in to your opponents main just to make a medivac" ... no thermy... it doesn't sound ridiculous, it actually IS ridiculous 😂
5:10 YOU CAN RALLY UNITS TO ATTACK STRAIGHT OUT OF PRODUCTION???!??!!??? 15:58 YOU CAN USE EMP TO REVEAL CLOAKED UNITS?!!??!!!!!! 38:18 now you’re pulling my leg, you can’t just drop mules to repair anything anywhere like that. I thought I had checked, maybe I saw they couldn’t build and assumed they couldn’t do much of anything. This freaking game man.
This is probably my favorite SC2 video of all time. I've been watching Winter for 2 years and only just now discovered you, hats off to you for making such entertaining content
Hearing the huge smile on your face as you comment on those cracks me up XD. We already knew that you blew a gasket a long while ago but this level of unhinged is amazing. This is gonna be hard to beat.
You know how there's this mass overseer & changelings to cover for roach hydra lurkers strat that's been making the rounds? Do it with barracks, mules and mech. A large enough barracks cloud over a deep enough siege line can stall amove'd units with anti-air attacks, and if you can't see the tanks, abducts/blinding cloud is a lot harder, even if the rax can't be targeted by spells like overseers can.
Me looking at the screen, wondering what the world has come to, the unstoppable marching of time that is slowly guiding us all towards an inevitable death... After being tank rushed in my main, while I'm doing a one base all-in...
I love how pros and gms acknowledge their losses as learning opportunities and say things and so congratulate their opponents on wins. It’s wholesomeness born of what is required to achieve their greatness.
after the intro, i thought you would play 1 or 2 games with the first unit as part of a series. but you went full baboon and did every unit in 1 video. you're a psycho and i love ya!
imagine doing this whilst also performing bongcloud so the opponents are confused to an even bigger extent some things are masterpieces. this video, however, is a beatgrandmasterpiece
Notice how most these cheese were vs toss. Terrans be like, hell yeah thatd how we do it! *getting canon rushed once* Gather the council...time to nerf toss....cant tolerate lactose... That being said, thats one of best SC ive seen content wise. Amongts the units diversified, hidden based and all the creativity, was really refreshing games to watch. Love to see those units used fully and not just 1 of them if any along with the standard meta builds. Very fun!! Wanna see this from other races too! Awesome video brother!
It also reminded me of GSL match between Cure and herO, last GSL before they nerfed mines. Cure built factory on hero's third, flew it to the corner of his base and started producing mines
♪♫ ♫♪ “I could have gone for the one base thoooor. But against zergling I needed a little bit moooore”. Uthermal busting out evil rhymes! ♪♫ ♫♪ One base Thor. A little bit more.
it's a bit like elephants and infantry taking up the same space in AoE. 4 elephants, 4 people: same thing! Medivac carries 2 tanks (60 tons each, according to lore), 8 peoples, but no thor ;)
at least the thor could be too tall to fit - though it could perhaps just crouch, or lie down. I doubt it is as wide as 2 freaking siege tanks! Which could fit in sieged for a while too...
now that you can salvage turrets, it would have loved to see someone counter your starport drop with like 4 turrets around it like "go ahead, make something"
Ngl, a grandmaster saying ''Hey, great timing! gg wp :D'' made me very happy. He wasn't toxic, just appreciates a good play, regardless of how bad it stinks of cheese.
1:14:45 kinda sad the starport had to leave... but there was still no creep, most likely no vision, and the opponent definitely wouldn't have looked for it in the same spot again... could have been enough to fly out of vision for a few seconds and return. the spot where it did land should have been a worse place to hide, tbh :D
I told people many times that SC2 so drowned in meta and same strats that opponents can't counter different approaches. I was called an idiot. But there is dude that makes stuff that funny to look at and is working. 👍

The fact that you can build literally any and every unit in the opponents main base and win as Terran leads me to believe we need to nerf Toss.
They’re looking for someone like you to join the balance council
This comment made me smile so much :3

I LOLed
Toss power fields should fail if exposed to terran buildings.
Other creators: 15 videos to max monetization
Uthermal: let's just shove it all in one video
correct
Im back! Glad to see this style of video. Its a good balance. Look forward to catching up on the videos i missed.
Other creators: sucks
uThermal: the goat
well technically if he puts it into 1 video, and it gets more watch time than say 4 videos would have, its just better that way.
thermy needs a social media manager
Grandmaster: please let this be a normal StarCraft game
UThermal: let’s build medivacs and Vikings in their base
I can just imagine this as the Magic Schoolbus intro.

"With uThermal? No way!"

"It's not really a proxy it's part of his civilization" - had me in stitches.

Dude this was better than going to the theater. Best movie I've seen in a long time haha
I want to see part 2 of this challenge where you build a reactor in your opponents base for double the units.

Great challenge bro once again solidifying why you’re the GOAT
Loving the edits and commentary. Very crisp
Flying terran buildings into opponents base has always been my favorite cheese... Now this is giving me more ideas hahah
Great series Thermy... love the new editing
awesome vid, I love watching interesting challenges and strats like this you never know what you're gonna see
imagine doing this whilst also performing bongcloud so the opponents are confused to an even bigger extent
some things are masterpieces. this video, however, is a beatgrandmasterpiece
You are a monster at this game. Very well done.
Thermy out here spoiling us today
Flying a starport into the opponents base displays dominance xD
Absolutely nuts that you pulled off every unit!
Can't believe I watched an entire hour of a game I have not played in a decade lmao
That was a lot of work for one video! Very entertaining, thanks uThermal!
Thanks for all the awesome videos! This is so fun to watch
floating buildings and producing units in their main is an absolute peak and joy
Loved every minute! Beating Harstem's terran was impressive.
You didn't finish the challenge with EVERY unit. You didn't proxy a command center and used SCVs to win.
Perfect edit for viewing pleasure!
You already built a SCV in your opponent main base in the planetary rush challenge!
"Zerg's mission is to be as greedy as *humanly* possible" (uThermal, 2024).
would love to see harstem's streamed side of that game
I cant think anything else when Uthermal says my Last Viking than the Lost Vikings
The sheer fact that throwing out build orders and timings, and just winging it can be so powerful is the reason why I love rts
Sure the build orders may be generally optimal, but there's a battlecruiser in your base and it's not yours.
Zerg challenge: Can you win by constantly corrupting opponent research (regularly) & production (right after fights to delay replenish)?
Massive respect for that first player. Recognized, and acknowledged a good play and took the loss with grace.
absolutely top content that makes people not usually comment like me also need to share the joy of this
We're always so spoilt by uthermal combining so much content into a single video. Peak gaming right here
That Tank game was really funny. I quite enjoy your baboon plays. :)
absolutely nuts, love it!
Very enjoyable ! Thank you Marc
