NEW RULE: -- BM means the challenge rules are over -- 100% any units go for the win.

Yeah, I just posted something like this, without having seen your comment. Because Mark and other streamers stream entertaining games with stringent rules, others are sure to emulate that, and, indeed, this will trickle down to diamond, maybe even gold players. By throwing all challenge rules clauses in the case of a bm rematch, (aka winning), Mark would be discouraging people from bming. Less toxicity = better

Mark is an optimist to the point that it borders on fiction. Maybe that's part of his success. But it's definitely why about 10 BC's died.

The absolute gulf between uThermal's demeanor during that first game where he's pointing out his opponent's good plays and giving him kudos for picking the right counter vs. the POV of the other guy who's still raging and crying and accusing uThermal of cheating even when he's winning is truly something else. Edit: The 2nd game is one of the most entertaining things I've seen in sc2 content history though, that play to end the game in particular feels like it's exactly what BCs are made to do, like that's straight out of something you'd see in a cinematic cutscene in the campaign lol

34:00 my favorite move when I have 1million mules is to scan and then mule drop on their last mining mineral bases. Doesn't matter if they return home, they help the opponent mine out faster.
That play to kill the infestors was genius! /chefkiss

Yikes. I sadly went to Avilo’s stream to watch this game from his view. What a downer that dude is an angry elf for sure. I regret going to his channel. Uthermal appreciate the way you present yourself. Your channel is entertaining and I love the positive vibes.
He has only 5 bases... and I have.... more 🤣🤣🤣. Understatement of the year

I am very excited at the potential for a b2gm guide. Got back into sc2 because of your videos. Watched Vibes and PiG's b2gm series and can't wait to see your take on it.
Yeh, would totally love to get a bronze to grandmaster guide. I havent played in ages, just watching guys like you play. And with your positive attitude i might become a player again. Looking forward for your series to help us out. Appreciate it.
Your relentless optimism brightens my day. Thanks for creating consistently great content.
Everyone loves spider mines. Everyone loves battlecruisers.
That final duke to get to the infestors gave me goosebumps, holy smoke!
That second game was super interesting. BCs teleports to split the map makes a ton of sense.
Idea is great, please add to the guide "the general approach to the game" - everyone can learn a strong timed push which is hard to counter and will bring you even to the diamond league.. but what then? It is important to understand how to analyze builds, how to read them, copy them, adapt them. How to understand the economy weaknesses, how to read your opponent etc. Thx :)
I love how you played the second game, slowly taking over the whole map with PFs! Awesome
Planetary, Battlecruiser,Widow Mines to GM !!! I am in heaven now :P let´s go, gg Marc
Uthermal you should hide widow mines vs toss under "a scouting barracks" vs star gate or mass warp gate!!
11:43 utB2GM! Yes! I love your first videos from the "Terran school" list and I rewatch one of them almost daily. A B2GM guide from a pro Terran would be much appreciated. I wish we also got some detailed reviewers of some of the great games. A low level player like me can't understand those games without help, and there only do much the narrators can do. Love from one of your old viewers.
The 2nd game's ending is so epic and satisfying.
Pure brilliance in that second game. The moves you made were absolute chess winner -type of moves. Mark, you're brilliant!
Watch your videos everyday, I love the consistency. I play SC2 here and there but when I watch you I just want to jump in a game and try out your challenges. Thank you for the videos, you recharge my mental everyday when I get a break from work, I appreciate you! Adios.
That massive teleport after splitting his army was both brilliant and beautiful!
400 IQ move at the end uThermal. I don't think he got chance to scout that much, so when the game ended to reveal the map he must have thought WTF
Omg that second game was mindblowing. This is some genuine KZread gold!!
10:30 Mark is the Bob Ross of Starcraft
Jfc that last game was probably the most insane game of starcraft ive ever seen NGL.
Love Planetary + WidowCruiser combo!
I`m very exited about the guide idea from you!) Started to play terran and would love to know how to do it better from your perspertive in a full guide)
The guide sounds really interesting. I watched PiG's bronze to GM, didn't quite get there (Silver 2 😂) but it helped reignite the love of SC2, so it's all good
BRO!!! That TvZ was insanely powerful. The economic choke out is such a cool thing to watch with BC's. I love your videos man. You killed that game! You yamato'd like 10 corruptors at once!!!!!
Dude that second game was absolutely insane! What a checkmate!
Do you think "Supply Block to Grandmaster" challenge would be viable? Where you prioritize destroying the enemy's depot, pylon and overlord to keep them supply blocked?

Woohoo regarding the guide! I'm in the camp of "haven't played in like 10 years" but love your channel and planning to get back into the game soon. My personal recommendation would be something like 1 build per race ... with several videos from you on each of those builds (e.g. how to hold cheese, how to transition into macro, etc.). Then separate videos just on selected topics (e.g. tips and tricks for sieging tanks, hotkeys, drops, etc.) I know you do have videos on some of these topics already, but packaging it up into one guide would be cool!
Dude! My man with the big brain plays jumping on top of all those infestors!
The window-mine plays are just fun as you await to see if they land any big punches. Thus game added the teleport Schick as well, very cool.
Bronze guide sounds good. Maybe after that is released try it out with a 'Noob to GM' series coaching another person that has never played SC2, maybe a BW player returning to the game, spouse, family member, that sort of thing 😊
YES B2GM uThermal style !!!!!!! can't wait !!!!!! watched both b2gm by Vibe, good luck man, it's gonna be long !!! ;)
love these long and intriguing games like the last one. wish i could be at least 3 percent as fast&smooth as you, dude. how about a new Protoss challenge? let's call it "The Proto Bank Robber" rules: - you go scouting at a normal time - the scouting Probe steals both gasses - you never cancel these stolen gasses - you never try to defend these stolen gasses - no other restrictions - bonus points if you don't use Stalkers
"I'm mining 2 of his bases, and he doesn't even have 1 of his bases" epic
Hi, new StarCraft player here! Can't wait for the guide!!
I think a good idea is if you play the same player on the same challenge you can play any challenge you have done in the past to mix things up for your opponent and for your viewers but only ig you play same player in the same challenge as a rule :) love your content
I always wonder how you click on these individual Vipers in such a mass battle?
OMFG. ABSOLUTE BANGER!!!🔥🔥
Honestly the guide sounds fire! 🤩
THIS GAME WAS LEGENDARY!! DUDE WAY TO GO HAHAHAHA I CANNOT BELIEVE THE AMOUNT OF CC"s YOU HAD 😆
and another challenge idea "boss said you two are fired" - you play Random - you don't let two of your starting workers mine and kill them right away - no other restrictions
I almost want to say that in addition to the marines and reaper, you should also be allowed 1 raven, no auto turrets tho. Just as detection, seeing as other races will always have detectors and overseers. Although, that could just be part of the challenge, having to use scans (mainly for burrowed units blocking expansion and burrowed infestors)
Hey uThermal, I'm really looking forward to your guide from bronze to GM... I'm starting to play again (long years no playing) and see you a lot for improving.
I would love to see you fly in 2 factories and a command center full of SUVs into the enemy's base, backed up backed up by 5 or so battlecruisers. Then land the factories and start producing Widow mines in their face. While using the scv's to repair the buildings and battle Cruisers. You could even make a planetary Fortress that would be epic
I am waiting for a long time for uThermal's B2GM Guide!
that move at the end hahaaaaa
I thought about a build where you hide a bunch of mines in the corners with dropships. And then when the enemy attacks you are drop the minds behind them then hold fire. Like a surprise Widow mine that would be fun
Looking forward to this bronze to GM guide !
What amuses me about the games vs Avilo, is that Marc's commentary is, genuinely, the most positive description of Avilo's game-play that I've ever come across. 👍 Avilo's commentary, on the other hand, remains as whinging and full of petty accusations as ever. #avilovsdemonlordcheaterTVTLOLBRONZE
So good haha loving this challenge series x]
What an amazing game, so many command centers!!! Loved this game!! Keep doing macro games please!!
Just freaking awesome ending
Wow! Game number 2 was insane! We're gonna need you to calm down sir... Lmfao! 🍻🍻🤘🤘👏👏
Awesome series
That last game might be my new favorite uthermal
the last tp of the army was so epic
Epic series!
Someone else prob already said this, but you dragged your BCs over the "3" for your hotkeys. You can disable from settings 😊
This is content creation at its finest.
That last teleport...!!
that guy in first game knows uthermal and watched his games and knows exactly what uthermal gona build
watching thermie always makes me want to play sc2 again
I would love to learn how to manage this game (buildings & units) as You are doing it in your videos. I'm looking for your Guide, Sir.
that must have been demoralizing for the zerg. a complete check mate
Funny how the only way avilo can win a game is a blind counter

That was an epic final game. That was awesome
If you're making such an ambitious guide, I would really love to see the guide help explain to me how to set up keybindings, and what you need to keep in mind when setting up keybinds. Generally, any help on how to better allow me to control the game would be so great. Whenever I tried a RTS, I would get stuck on how to control my camera/buildings etc

I think Bronze to GM is ambitious, yes. And it should start with, for example, optimising Windows settings for StarCraft. 😁
uThermal loves mass cyclones so much despite not winning a game with it, he finally invented a build himself that can be perfectly countered by mass cyclones.
That is the most command centers I've ever seen in a game
Please do a teaching series, I was master league in WoL but havnt played until I started watching your videos and now have no idea how builds work with all the timings being so much faster because extra worker start and also barely understand stray of new units

Also, just personally if you read this, thank you so so much. From the OG StarCraft when I was a kid to sc2 after I finished college has always and been far been my favorite game and you have rekindled my love for why there will never be a competition to it in terms of a timeless tactical and strategic game
Very nice game!
New Challenge: The floor is lava. You can only build or move units on platforms/raised areas. Or for maps where that's not feasible, you have to keep them close to buildings when on low ground.
Yeah, I think that dude had a map hack and could see you units, that is the only way he would have known to use all those scans!
Wow nice . How do youndo the rapid fire yamato ?
Blinding Cloud don´t work on widow mines, right?
Great last game!!
So I had an idea for a challenge. I call it the Tortoise and the Hare. Basically you build a fast planetary to block your main, with a few tanks. Fast units only then finish it off with a toxic build
I doubt the first one is a blind counter. A bunch of people went to his vid when you rekt him last time so he must have an idea what your build from the start.

That's the literal definition of blind counter. Here being blind is not needed to guess or scout your opponent because you know what they are already doing.
I think a single tank should be permitted for base defense. So 1 reaper, 5 marines, and 1 tank. It helps you at least defend cheese and all-ins when you are playint a challenge like BC's that require a lot of time to get off the ground.
i'm in the mood tonight another one challenge idea "not a single step back" - you play Random or just off-race - you play like you want for the first 4:29 minutes. if you somehow achieve a quick win... a win is a win - since the 4:30 minute mark, you must hit enemy's bases with ALL your army every 60 seconds (more often is fine though) - you have no right to retreat after that point (i.e. you only can teleport your BCs to switch the area you are attacking but they must fight on the enemy's territory until they die or the opponent calls for GG) - quit immediately if you don't have anything to hit with and your 60-second timeout is gone - no other restrictions

speedrunning SC2 challenge is just finished and despite little details it is the same. Win a game under 6 minutes, after 6 minutes aggression should be nonstop or you lose.
I doubt i am the first to comment this, but you have your hot keys set to clickable so when you right click them, they set whatever you have selected to the hotkey. Thats why the hotkeys are getting deleted 25:08
I think the last game pretty much showed that there's not really a good counter to an opponent fully maxed on fully upgraded BCs. It definitely feels like a strategy you have to beat by not letting your opponent get to that point, because once you're there, you're kinda just have to hope they make a mistake and you're able to mass abduct/neural and push your advantage before they rebuild all the BCs.
33:45 holy guacamole this was glorious
I have an Idea for a series for the end of the year. "Naughty or Nice" this would be a Christmas themed challenge. You have so many accounts that you can probably give away some MMR. You play on accounts that are done with the challenge. And maybe randomly select a challenge and if you win and they GG out you try to quit before them and gift them the MMR. But if they bm you can just destroy them with anything, removing all challenge.
You can do what Pig did for Bronze to GM, you get viewers of that level to face you that way its still legit while not making anyone salty
IN-CREDIBLE BATTLE at the end!
