Cannon rush seems to be one of the most popular strategies for lower league Protoss players. In this PvT, it is no different. However the Protoss decides to take it to the extreme and Cannon Rushes not just once or twice, but he keeps on going.

seeing a cannon rusher fail is exquisite

This is why you should not try to do it to a terran. He will simply lift off and move to new real estate.

@@mancamiatipoola Actually that is terrible logic, but I loved Terran players that thought like that. they lift off, I run a probe ahead and slap a pylon down where they want to land, then laugh hysterically as he has to land barracks, make marines, kill the pylon, then land to continue production. Meanwhile, I my first expo is in full production and I am starting a second, while teching to sky toss, and I keep throwing the occasional cannon his way so he goes tanks, then as soon as he is good and dedicated to tanks I stop building cannons and send my void rays in. Guess what a 3 base economy with void rays does to a 1 base economy with tanks. The only reason not to cannon rush Terran is if you don't know how to cannon rush like marc in this video. A year ago I finally got bored of cannon rushing just short of diamond with a 60 something percent win rate, including the games I spent working out my strat. Today i played my first game of 1v1 SC2 in a year+, and guess what. I beat a diamond 3 with a cannon rush. Admittedly he was zerg, but had he been Terran I would have used the exact same tactics. block his expo with cannons, pylon nearby expos to prevent him from landing, force him to clear the cannons, while I tech and build econ, then show up with void rays on a multi base economy while he is single base tanks. The reason I didn't win every game is because I am actually a terrible SC2 player. Rarely did my apm hit 100, I can't micro and macro at the same time, and I have no clue what units counter what, or even what some of the techs/units do. Including protoss units. Yet I still won most of my games cannon rushing...even against terran

Normally I route for my fellow Protoss executors, but then I saw the BM and routed for the Terran. GO HUMAN!

Poor decision on cannon rushing the second base. The main thing of cannon rush is to contain your enemy where it won't happen in such an open area.

The protoss also overdid the rush. WAAAAAAAY to many canons. As a protoss, you always try to minimize the amount of canons.

that cheese was effective, but protoss shit the bed real hard in the mid-game.. no warpgate, no micro.. sad indeed
That rush might have actually worked if he had actually blocked the entrance off with cannons. That was a lot of scvs that got away. Also should have had a probe following the command center to know exactly where he was migrating to.

He also wasted a fuckwad of resources on single cannons that got killed by a reaper and a couple SCVs... lilke 3 times.

No need to block it. once you force a lift off you won as a cannon rusher...he just didn't know how to close out the game. Also, there are not a lot of expo choices in that direction, he just needed to run his probe ahead and pylon at the landing site.
@zqzj

He should have sent out half his probes to scout while the command center was looking for a place to land. Very easy to block off by dropping pylons at key landing points. Keep him suspended in the air for a minute or two and it's game over.

You are the best comentator! I really enjoy they way you present new and sometimes unfamiliar people. Really polite, but still entertaining. Keep up! :)
I laughed harder than i ever should have at this cast, everything was random af and that made it funny as hell thank you
Protoss needed to prevent those SCVs from escaping and then expanded in the Terran's initial base.
Cast more of these type of videos, these are so fun

The Protoss are not sending out their best people... they are sending us ilegal aliens, they are sending us cannons, and some I assume are decent protoss units.!
nice casting lowko, congrats! loved the match.
sometimes the highest-class matches get boring, because everybody is just doing the same thing, transforming the game from a strategy-based one into a dexterity one. The winner is not the one with the best strategy, but the fastest one on the keyboard and mouse. But THOSE matches, like this one...... they are brilliant. Well done!
After your castings I can't go back to other casters, I'm not sure if I'm happy or not about it, but at least there are plenty of games like this one I've never seen. Props man keep it up!
Awesome cast! I am so glad i found your channel! Bless🇯🇲
That politician's reference is gold :D
I miss Huskys replays so thank you for doing these lowko
Love how Lowko always pronounces Protoss like Plotoss xD Love your casts Lowko

protoss expansion should have been in terran's starting base. if anything protoss should have closed off the main put a couple cannons (1-2) and with photon overcharage, he could have defended while he was safely getting resources from his natural ( located at the original starting location of terren) and expanding his army
the picture on front is from legacy of the void trailer nice touch.
This one was a fun match to watch.
Awesome channel Lowko.
Hey Lowko, I am not sure how much control you have over your overlay UI, but if possible can we worker supply next to the regular supply? I think it would be a nice addition.
5:26 "And so many resources wer infested...." ?!😂
That... is what passes as a Platinum Protoss nowadays? I think I could probably make Diamond, then. *shrugs*

Also remember that stress comes form not knowing what your opponent might be doing, so scout, harras and prevision are your best tools to play in a more relaxed way
this is great, you are making a spiritual succession to bronze league heroes!
Would anyone else like some sort of viewer gimmick games like Day9 did back in the day with Funday Monday? Loved doing those and always fun to watch.
holy crap the quality of this video!
im very happy with that satisfying result
why did't the photos make an expansion in the teran's old main? could have used the canons as protection?
For your next cast video from viewers, can you help with us "newbs" for replays. Do I look for them in my files on my pc or just copy link? Thanks!
Would love to see you cast in a Tournament for WCS. you did this one by yourself and managed it pretty well :D
10:26 - when you're too impressed by your own joke, lol
I like it how you mentioned Warcraft III, neat.
That was... intense.
I laugh a little every time I hear the name "Lequisha"
Guess having that depot down was a good idea after all. lol
Doesn't orbital command prevent you from loading scvs?
Reminded me of a game i had a couple of weeks ago. PvP, opponent canon rushes me (succesfull) but i get a stalker out and it was a greedy gateway into expand build, so i had my natural up. All probes to the 2nd base, and denying the opponents probe from leaving with my stalker. After the the rush i still had better tech and better income. That's the thing with most canon-rushers, they have NO idea how to play an actual game. :D
haha, I approve the lifting off ahahhaha. 12:19 "All the units will counts as a building".... hmm ... haa?
Hey, Lowko, how do I submit a game?
This was beautiful
Oops, how embarrassing can be when you think at first that you will win? It turns out you lose...so funny
Just realised that I've already watched this one. :P Gonna watch it again I guess
Very moving quote. :D
How calm Laquisha is Really satisfying game
And this is why you never get arrogant in SC2 or any other rts game for that manner. As soon as you do, you end up looking a fool when the tables turn.
Lowko it would be fun if you posted a 2 v 2 with someone maby. It would be fun to watch :)
ahhhh happy endings, never gets old
Lowko please mark lower-league casts somehow in the video title (as you do it with professional games casts with casts')

and lift barracks / factory afterwards to shoot upwards
Protoss made a huge mistake not moving a 2nd into his opponent's natural. He committed so many resources to an immobile attack that could have become a nice defense and bought him the 2 minutes needed to stand up a new production site.
I wonder if Laquisha here is the same person I use to play against in supreme commander:FA... that guy was great fun.
My favorite thing about these matches is how respectful they are commented on. These days, everyone's so disrespectful. It's refreshing and it makes for a fun viewing.
Crazy match
lowco are you the hero starcraft needs huscky left us you are the only hope
extreme cannon rush but 13 mins hmmm i can see this failing in the end lol. 5:00 there is now a reaper aswell ready to start dealing some damage to that reaper. double reaper what does it mean !
Lol that c-rusher was so bad. You have to cancel cannons if they are almost down and c-rush the next base if he lifts up.
lol that tag...
I loved this match! Hahah countering cannon rush with Lift-Off was hilarious. I justs wished L didn't make so many silly plays- namely the supply block, as he / she seams very good at the game (or at least micro).
Its in the wrong playlist. Where is rooks story update?☹ cant wait anymore
i dont even play sc2 yet i watch u i guess that means i should play sc2

Lowko, this series is fun, but make sure to limit the number of cannon and worker rushers or it will get stale after a while.
actually i think planetary into siege tanks is better choice then cc when going vs mass cannon

Except the cannon rush worked...he failed every aspect of the follow up though. He won the game at 4:00, but built 2 too many cannons, didn't have his expo started, and built too many ground units before building his econ. He also failed to run his probe to where the command center was headed and build a pylon there to block the landing. In other words he was a complete noob at cannon rushing, and still only lost because of how little he could play the strat.
Nice ;) just so you know, a mule is not equivalent to 6 scvs... closer to 3 or 4 according to luiquipedia
Congrats laquisha ! He deserves
The counter BM!
Lol almsot perfect cannon rushing. That guy learned it from me :DD His mistake were: 1) he didnt block ramp from terran main base with pilons 2) he didnt follow command center with additional probes when it flew.
"Marc, you're a jerk!"
I always like to watch cheese punishments...!
Don't fear the reaper, man.
protoss: cannon rushes terran terran: lifts off and acquires a new base protoss: woaa...I look like a fool, lemme do that again
