While it's good to see the highest tier of play, it js also really nice seeing you cast more of the "normal"(?) tier of pro play as well. Thanks for casting this! Like don't get me wrong, they're both obviously very good, just not the Serral, Clem, Dark, MaxPax, Hero, etc.

Thanks for the video, Lowko. It’s refreshing to see promising talent still keeping the StarCraft scene interesting. ❤

great series!

Great commentary, thanks!

That ending with the protoss army being hit in two fronts was wild. Epic play fr

w lowko me and my dad love watching your vids

In my humble amateur mind, I think the voidray first is something Hero has been doing a lot the last couple of months. I believe it is to try and counter Serral, who has an amazing ability to be able to scout what his opponent is doing better than any other player, and then always be ready to smash whatever the opponent is doing. Game 1 here, DRG is basically playing blind the whole game. 6 adepts shows up, does not have enough lings, builds 24 lings, no followup, basically could have been at least 6 drones instead. All game, trap is on the edge of the creep, poking, DRG has no idea if a +1/blink timing is coming, or whatever it is, as he is blind. He is always overreacting a bit to late and never getting the droneadvantage that we usually see zerg being able to get.

holy cow lowko, i didnt realize u already have 500k subscriber, its 3 digits of K follower, its hard to believe i followed u since u were only 1 digit follower. almost everynight watch ur vid before sleep since then.

Fun fact: when you say 'thank you' to your brain, it is in fact your brain who is thanking himself, which is very egocentric of him...

its an old meme, but it checks out

You should cast more mirror marches.

It's great to see Trap back. But what happened to Goblin? He was my favorite Protoss, cause he was basically the Gumiho of Protoss. :d

More mirror match ups!!!

So I've been thinking about Ultralisks lately, and how they're kind of bad as the game goes on in most cases. What if they came with one more base armour, but Chitinous Plating instead of just giving +2 more armour, instead it reduced bonus and spell damage by, I dunno, 25/33/50%? Would that be too OP? At least Ghosts and Siege Tanks wouldn't annihilate them instantly that way, though technically it would make them a bit weaker to stuff like Marines. What do you think, Lowko?

@hivetech4903

25 күн бұрын

Typically Ultras only ever make it to +2 carapace, but always want to engage with Plating, so usually have 6 armor. Having one more base armor, +2 but no bonus from Plating means they would engage with 5 armor, getting wrecked by Mauraders. Terran wouldn't need Ghosts. Siege tanks don't annihilate Ultras anyway... not sure what you mean... but they would counter them harder with this change because tanks don't do spell damage. All Protoss units would also fare much better, so this would be a massive Ultra nerf.

This was a pretty bad series, lots of mistakes.

very weird to see pro players play like this!! specially seeing DRG eating up those storms completely

Protoss is too weak in high end player level, even MaxPax the best Protoss in the world right now with 6900-7000 mmr still stand no chance against Clem or Serral, in very last tournament rounds there are always be ZvT no Protoss show up

we all lost THE GAME

A Zerg who choose to make Swarm Hosts has clearly a death wish and wants to lose the game asap. Swarm Hosts, Mutas or Ultras are pointless in the current matchup.

psionic storm should really be removed in protos. that is too op against zerg. what? no one has played sc1? that was so op then. and still op now.

Ye nothing special here, the good old a-move protoss army that you deal with or you dont. The one shot most protoss have after doing nothing for 20 minutes. Bores the fuck out of me

hes not exactly playing against serral here....
