Now Serral is Serral of rank roulette

The discussion for the second match was the best. Artosis saying "Alright, hold on, I got this." while Harmstem sees Lowko's guess in disbelief and then trying to hold in his laughter when Artosis continued with "[...] if I see a 2 come in from you [...]". Then Lowko revealing his guess and Artosis commenting "[...] I was like "I'm gonna crush him, he's gonna put something dumb like Gold 2" [...]" and that ends up being Harmstem's guess. 🤣

The intro sells it. Harstem giving passive insults, Lowko cheering and Artosis booing. The energy kept going.

Artosis and Harstem's committment to the idea that zergs do not have to macro is what really gets me here, Lowko is trying so hard not to get baited. You can feel years of suppressed anger bubbling beneath the surface.

I'd love a cookout with Harstem present. He's so good and tasteful at roasting just about everything.

I wish there was an episode with Artosis and Winter with Harstem

A lot of people play league of legends and know how to stutter step but are still terrible at starcraft (such as me). Amazing episode and season of Rank Roulette, sad it will be gone for a while.

talking about the last game, there is a famous uploader on bilibili named 大刺蛇 aka the gaint hydra. He is a gm zerg player who always uses the 2 base swarmhost against protoss after his early game went wrong. Apparently there is a lot of zerg player flowing her style.

I do this as well - however I have to be honest (just purely assessing this game and not attempting to compare to me) - the micro of the SH of this player seemed very low for that build - just all SH launches / no locust micro / nydus was late etc. The DTs are a problem of course but it wasn't a good example of what 'can' be done with this build.

I haven't played starcraft in over 6 months, but I strongly suspect the second game was me. A lot of that game felt very familiar, and all the mistakes highlighted were the usual mistakes that I make. But to be fair I guess a lot of games at my level will look similar to that. Either way, it was exciting to watch!

Lowko and Artosis on Christmas? Thanks for the Christmas gift Harstem

Excellent christmas present Captain

This series is one of the best on youtube purely because harstems commentary

oh man i would really like a viewer participating in this rank roulette, something like people competing each other on rank roulettes and the first place can take place on the championship against the "celebrities" and we can see how well they do. Could you imagine a viewer getting to the grand final and going toe to toe with idk, Reynor, or lowko, artosis. That would be cool

We really need to see a game from Winter’s low APM challenge runs sometime

Lowko: That was actually not a bad game Harstem: *face*

Would love to see a rank roulette where you just throw an absolute wrench into the guessing and just use a bunch of IODIS replay submissions for it (perhaps come clean and put the submission text at the end to prevent people getting too salty, and call it a special unranked episode outside of the regular season)

I lost it at the end "it cost me 20 bucks to engrave" 🤣

My guesses were d3, s1, g3, and p2. 10 total. I expect my queen-sized solid gold trophy in the mail by next week. I want to say hello to my mom, and tell all of my fans that what brought me here was not hard work, but sheer, pure luck. Git gut, nerds!

My guesses: Diamond 2: 4 Platinum 1: 7 Diamond 3: 14 Diamond 3: 14 Yeah, they definitely saved some of the hardest games till last.

Awesome season. Im really glad to see lowko win. I hope Harstem engraves something funny or puts something gross in lowko's trophy.

W0ooo hooo been waiting on this

This was better than the last HomeStory Cup finals 😁

A merry Christmas to all!

Best thing is that artosis didn't play season 2 because DUH

Holy shit the intros were fantastic

We demand season 4 start next week 😁

BROWN BREW CREW WHERE YOU AT!!

Really like Arty and I was rooting for him, happy to see Lowko succeed though and in the end not watching Harstem's amazing content, especially his premier I^3odis series, really got Arty and that's a good lesson to learn. How could he pass on that content it's friggen amazing?

that "Gold 3" game actually demonstrates a serious flaw within this otherwise AMAZING idea of a series... ...namely that a lot of games might come from otherwise really strong players who are climbing the ladder from a brand-new account, and thus, -- -- still have a lower placement than the one they actually belong to. Thus, any serious attempts to accurately predict the league / division would be in vain...

@SaulGoodman3D2049

Жыл бұрын

That's kinda why it's Rank Roulette, not Solve the Rank. You're never gonna get the full picture from a 2 minute clip, especially from a game like SC2 where skills develop asymmetrically. We could just be seeing the best or worst 2 minutes of either player's performance, or there could be hidden factors in the early game that could throw off your guess, like that Gold game in UpaTree's episode where both players thought it was much higher than it was because they macroed really well (because as far as the comments could tell both players left each other alone for like 20 minutes). And this is all assuming there's no external factors outside of the game, like smurfing, or climbing the ladder with a new account as you've mentioned, or trolling. Just like a casino game, Rank Roulette is stacked against the players, but that hasn't stopped some from having great scores.

@@SaulGoodman3D2049 you're right of course. Still, I think it would be to everyone's benefit if such cases were as rare as possible.

love how it ends on a super hard episode also :D

16 Points today. High-scoring game, but I actually beat the host and one of the guests. If I was cool enough to be a contestant, I probably wouldn’t have been here today anyway, and even if I was, I still would have lost. . . . Round 1: D1 (5 Points) - I feel like these are guys who not only understand the basics of the game, but also know how to prioritize their APM and respond quickly. However, they’re still building those responses. Was waffling in which Diamond league to guess, and then guessed D1 because of how action-packed the game was on both sides. Round 2: G1 (6 Points) - The macro was really bad, but there were two things I really noticed. The marines kiting the ling/bane (and then the complete destruction of the mineral line), and the fact that the Zerg player mixed in Corruptors to fight the BCs. Silver macro, platinum decision-making, I think it’s gold. Round 3: P2 (3 Points) - The opposite of the last game. Macro was a lot better than everything else. Also went with the “2” based on the last two rounds. Round 4: D2 (2 Points) - Cheese is gonna get you pretty high up. I also feel like the deficiencies like lack of creep spread don’t really matter. You don’t really need the vision when you’re cheesing, or the movement speed when you’re using Nydus. Both folks were cheesy, so I think that plays a big part.

:( I am dia 2 and play quite some games per season, ... damn Artosis does not acknowledge I exist. But I do watch rank roulette! Great show !
