Hope you guys all enjoyed this new challenge! Let me know if you would like to see more of this and if there's any improvements you think I could make :) Also a quick note about the player with 3k mmr you guys are bashing ; he usually plays on another server and got 3k mmr after doing his placements, I checked his match history and he got a freewin against a diamond player and besides that only beat a bronze and a silver. From playing against him I don't think he lied about his rank ^^ Thanks for watching all

I would love to see more of this kind of challenge, it's fascinating! Another idea could be: "bronze to grandmaster". It's like the "win using only my mouse" challenge, except you don't get a mouse either, just a bronze player, who you would coach live :D Except you don't coach to help them get better, but just to get them to win. It would be cool to see how far that player could get, if you could get them into master league. And I would want to know after the challenge how much the bronze player's game improved due to all the experience they got on the show.

Bunio here. I waited for this video! It was a great pleasure to play with you. Now, thanks to the video, I know what did happen because it was too quick for me during the game :) Sorry to my teammates that I was too passive in the 3rd game. I believed that my banshees would help, but it was too late (I was too slow). However, BCs and widow mines did some work! I am looking up to the next game! It was awesome. Thanks, Marc!

I was really impressed by some of the bronze players, building Thors and Mines catching you out and managing to scan and hop into your main base in the first was honestly impressive work out of them. I love that they managed to take 2 games off you, but you managed to adapt and win the third.

Honestly I think it's probably one of the best challenges you've came up with. Hope it will grow to a full series.

I was sitting on the edge of my seat the whole time expecting some giant army a-move but it just never happened.

Was fun to watch

Amazing content as always! Way to keep the game fun/fresh this many years later.

Great videos uThermal. Loving the entertainment. Would love to have been listening into the other players' chat. "He can't be attacking you, because he's attacking me". "Quiet you two, he can't be attacking either of you, because he's defending against me!". "How does he keep making units?". "He's taking a new base!".

This is so much fun omg. You're single-handedly bringing new life to SC entertainment. Your commentary is amazing as well, WHILE PLAYING AGAINST 6 PEOPLE! Insane.

After your first game I thought you'd taken a challenge that was just way too difficult. 6 players, all able to commuicate and micro all at once sounds insane. Yet what's even more insane is the speed at which you learn and realise what you're opponents are going to do, to be able to go from a relatively quick loss to a win in just 3 games is amazing! Its awesome to watch you complete these challenges!

I see that you had your apm counter on this time. Could you keep it on for all your games? I love to see the raw numbers of your performances.

I think it would need to be 3x13, or even 2x14, if you can believe that. With 2 pro players, they can build massive synergy, while the extra 7th-14th low league heros are still just going to die. I think, funnily enough, if you give the other players enough games, they might start to be able to beat Marc. It only took Marc 3 games to find the right balance, and I bet he could keep winning. We'll see how vs 7 goes.

Thank you so much for the level of commentary you bring, it makes your videos entirely unique from all the other starcraft vids out there and its something I've wanted ever since I got interested in the scene. Keep up the good work!

The interesting thing about this challenge, although you can adapt, I think the lower elo players can adapt better- They have so much room for improvement and if they all did just a couple things of things additionally, they'd sweep.

Crazy to watch, always happy to watch and learn just how efficient one can be against any odds.

I really appreciate the real-time tactical commentary on these. Helps me think about what to prioritize and the pacing of everything, in a way that watching high-level commentary on pro games just doesn't.

This was fun to watch! Can't wait for the 1v7!

I had fun playing 2v6 on Planetary Annihilation (as one of the six) against some of the top players in that game. It's an amazing experience. Not only is it fun having such a tremendous advantage and yet watching the small team somehow weasel themself out of it. It also really does require a different mindset while playing, and I found one of the most effective things I could do in that game is just scout out the two players for my allies. Less experienced players are unconfident and tend not to take risks they should (myself absolutely included). Scouting out the enemy and revealing where the weakpoints are was such a huge difference I could actually see it. Of the games we won, it was often due to a blindside against weakpoints discovered by my satellites.

Awesome, as always. I would also like to see in Archon mode a game against six gold players. You present wonderful challenges, it is a pleasure to watch you.❤️

It's probably the first gameplay video i watched till the end and didn't notice the time! Man, you're insane player and speaker, which is twice harder, I think!

Your positive attitude is truly admirable. Cheers Thermy.

gj with the games. enjoyed the surprise. thank you. gotta watch the rest later after work. so sad. lol

This is so epic. Would love this again

Fun! The randomness of it all. Always appreciated.

Holy crap, this was fucking intense, loved every minute of it, best video ever of yours, was on the edge of the seat many times !

i bet the voice chat was hilarious! GGs to all the players

This video was nuts. Kudos for keeping in your failed attempts and not just showing yourself winning. Joined your Discord because of this video. I'm a trash player, but I enjoy Starcraft and wacky games like this. Reminds me of the energy from back in the day when there was a queue for FFA games (can't remember if it was ranked, pretty sure it was unranked) which was so much fun. Real shame that they removed it, so much harder to find good FFA games in lobbies.

I remember cheering for uThermal waaaay back in beta/WoL days if memory serves. maybe even SC1? Glad this showed up in my feed! This is really entertaining, u!

This is a fun challenge, especially since you always keep it lighthearted. It's really bringing life to starcraft, at least for me.

Such a great joy to follow your content. please keep it up good sir. :)

How can u just seemingly effortless talk while doing all this things, its just mindblowing. When I look at your eyes that jump around all the time it is just funny and impressive :D

Amaizing dude. Make a serie please of this challanges

This looks so much fun , wish I was free that day :( . yet another great video!

This challenge is so exciting from the very first second it starts!

Holy crap! Your APM was the exact same as all of theirs combined! Gg

It is much more interesting when you add the games in which you lose too, not knowing if you will win or not is super entertaining!

After seeing this I believe that 7 vs 1 might actually be possible. Amazing video!

You are insane uthermal lol This was awesome

When he said “auw” from the mind hits instead of “ouch” I suddenly remembered that he's actually Dutch. It's quite amazing how fluent some of the can be at a second language. One completely forgets while watching that he's commentating his own game while playing in a second language.

I liked that each had a personality in a way, that was fun to watch and your reactions to it, the planetaries were genius move. Fav player was that mining zerg, I figured that he was trying to strip mine the map and playing a supporting (sugar) role, a player that doesn't have to worry for upgrades and units will be able to just skyrocket the economy and send to his allies as needed~

Super cool challenge!

"Two people eliminated....that is what progress looks like!" Excellent quote!

Nice to watch you play against some bronze/silver players. It was fun to see them trading some jokes/banter back and forth with you. I find the higher tier players never seem to do that, ever, even after a match, unless it’s salt/rage!

I love how positive you are. That is the best feature.

It is just amazing to see how absurdly good you do ten things at a time and then still have enough mental capacity left to actually properly comment on all the things happen. Absolutely mind blowing. 😯

Crazy micro-speed and fast-thinking from uThermal! Best comment in part 3: "There are actually so many banshees they block out the sun!" This is just golden :D
