@@Dark_Voice ok, the main point is that theres a SC2 WOL mission where you start off with just probes and presumably macro up and kill the hybrid. immediately, it sounds ridiculous and undoable, and most of us can immediately intuitively think that theres a need to amend the rules slightly. with havens fall, you can argue, be technical about it, and yes it ended up being difficult, for incredibly specific reasons such as how you specifically had 3 vikings, no medics, the damage output from 3 vikings was at a specific "unsweet" spot for killing that last infestation, etc. these incredibly technical reasons are not what we would think of as causing it to be a really tough one, until we watched this video or watched GGG attempt it. your very generic reasons actually say nothing about anything at all (not a slam on you, i just think youre misthinking things). everything you say, can be "generically" true in "generic" plain words, but its not like the first case where there are FULL ENEMY BASES and you know you start with probes and a base for mining. in fact, havens fall could still be all that with "regenerating, replenishing structures" bla bla bla, and if instead of 3 vikings we had 6, GGG would have did it in 1 to 3 tries. who knows. im trying my best to explain it and if you dont really still get it still im not sure if theres more i can do lol

I remember looking through the triggers for Sinister Turn and Haven's Fall and I've never seen any code more spaghettified in starcraft 2 than these two missions

Those vikings deserve a promotion.

Haven's Fall: When the enemy goes to infest a colony, if you clear the defenders and let the virophage finish and then kill it (and the colony buildings, but you can clear them while the virophage builds), then you never have to deal with that colony again. Rinse and repeat until all colonies are infested and then easily cleared and you no longer need to scramble or clear overlords.

The positioning you used on Outbreak and All-In was stellar, and really cool strategizing. Hope we will get to see some of your other recent challenge runs here soon too, I have been watching them on the other channel.

@@BigBoneBusiness If I remember correctly, they started by importing existing Brood War units for all three races. Marines, Battlecruisers, Zealots, Carriers, Zerglings, Mutalisks, and more were all present in very early builds of SC2. So they would have had prototype versions of each race which they could use to make maps. I'll have to do more research on this. Also, the skins are great. I'm pretty sure skins are purely aesthetic, so they wouldn't affect the core mission mechanics. For example, a skin wouldn't change the collision mechanics or anything like that.

Thank you Grant. I've been watching your channel since HOTS Deathless and enjoying it so much I got into playing Starcraft Coop with a mate of mine. And your strategies and cheese have saved me during missions several times. Just the other night, I was playing A Sinister Turn and we were STUCK. Maar kept respawning too quickly and I broke my army on the enemy's main base. It looked like a reset, but I thought what would Grant do? So I pulled the boys, dodged Maar, rushed through the enemy base and parked them behind the Preservers. Then I did the same trick you did in this vid, taking down preservers with drones and then hiding from Maar.

Now we're learning all the secrets of the game. Thanks, Giant Grant Game and his teams

For the Zerg, they hide a lot of their forces underground in preparation for battles, and keep a bunch of eggs mostly matured, but not quite hatched until they're needed. The Protoss just warp in most of their forces from other locations, so similar to Terrans, with all of their units prepared in advance.

A sinister turn might be the craziest thing you have done, except maybe the blindfolded run. What the actual fuck. The entire segment I was just waiting for you to move on, and was confused why you would take so much time explaining why it didn't work, it should have been obvious with 6 probes..

This challenge is completely insane. Between beating a mission with literally 6 probes to using the AI’s complete map vision against itself. This takes a complete mastermind to pull off.

No fair, I have to study, oh well, my scores can wait another 30 minutes

watched this already in the archives, but it is such a crazy concept. take all the macro out of an RTS. love it though. such a good run

This is, strangely, a great guide to someone who is new to starcraft and struggling with the campaign. good work.

This has got to be one of the more impressive challenges you've completed.

last time i was this early my scvs haven't built anything

man beat sinister turn with 6 probes smh

That's what I love Grand for! Absurd strategies and insane stubbornness Thanks for the work, dude:)

And here I am dying on normal mode with building units. You sir are a legend

I miss your stories about why your challenge exists in cannon. I liked learning that the mercenaries that Arthas hired went on to lead happy lives.

Really good video, always fun when you and the viewers come up with the insane strats. Btw I wish for more warcraft 3 content, though I do know that you are still a bit scarred after the no death run, but I hope you will return to it someday as long as you are having fun ofc.

@@Cat_in_The-Box damn thats too bad, but understandable

Man, this is really outstanding, how you beat the infestation, A Sinister Turn and the final mission,, especially vs. Leviathan. Those strategies are really on the next level! Plus, you know, I loved the part, of a bit of history, of SC2 script code ;P Plus, plus I especially love the those moments like fabric vs. firebat ;D

I watch the archives so much, that I start to forget that this is the main channel :D

Can you beat SC2 without making us look like prehistoric monkeys?

I swear at some point he's gonna go like "can you beat starcraft without breathing"

Me who is suicidal: "I'm gona beat ya' to it."

As always, Grant, the video is fantastic, and your tactics simply brilliant. I’m not sure a whole lot of other people could have had the patience to deal with that as you have and still come out loving the game as much. You and the community really have put the passion back into the SC2 campaign and I am incredibly grateful for that.

I just came from your warcraft 3 deathless run videos, and have only just started this one, but your strategy in these games is surreal. its incredibly impressive.

Without knowing what the heck is going on, I automatically assume this is gonna be fun

Will there be other passes from the archives on the main channel?

Most of the main channel videos were originally archives videos.

now I know why that one viking in the cinematic thought he could take that ultra, he must've been one of those 140+ kill vikings from this campaign

At first, when I saw the title I was like : "Ok, so he only produces units from his initial building, that's a good challenge", and then I saw I was very far from that, and that's more amazing ! This is wonderful ! :)

This channel rocks

Everybody: Dude, you've beaten this game like a joke. Can you just chill out and play as it was intended? GGG, doing another crazy run: I'LL FUCKING DO IT AGAIN

35:02 three battle battle cruisers against Leviathan? EPIC!

I love all these incredibly unique missions with four things around the map. Truly a masterclass of mission design.

The lost Vikings before: *Killed a guy named after a vegetable* The lost Vikings now: *Hero of the rebellion, slaughterer of infested*

6:13 the things you come up with are just brilliant and funny.

These are such awesome runs that I'm back, 3 months later, watching for about the 4th time, and still as giddy as the first.

I watched these vods and have been looking forward to this series to show up on the main channel! As always the production value is high and the stories of each run are so fun

At this point you're becoming an expert on fighting Kerouac Kerrigan. You know what her abilities are at each stage, how her AI works, what her weaknesses are

This is beyond amazing. I love it. Thank you for even thinking of the possibility of doing this!

22:31 - The Supreme Protoss technology bested by three heaps of scrap that hold together with ducktape.

I didn't realize how much I enjoyed playing certain missions like this! Zero Hour, The Devil's Playground, Echoes of the Future, In Utter Darkness, Engine of Destruction, The Moebius Factor, and the Gates of Hell were always fun to play without making anything! (I mostly only played on normal difficulty, though)

Expertly done as usual, Grant. Frustrating as they are in the moment, I always enjoy your main-channel explanations of the hardest missions, and how you finally managed to find a way to beat them.

This is probably one of my favorite of your playthroughs! GG Grant!

Really crazy to see that something like that could be done. Thanks for the great content

The absolute shift in voice to, "Nuking myself" is hilarious.
