very long game, nice. And still waiting for Lowko vs Serral
Honestly the fact that Neeb brought it down to the wire against Serral, very impressive. This was a great game!

If Serral lost this game, he was out of the tournament, but he pulled the victory just barely, and from then onwards, made it to the finals winning the Homestory Cup Tournament. Such and amazing player.

think he did lose; neeb just tabbed out like Idra; tabbing when you already won bc frustrated and dumb ;) . look at the last fight, serral has NO energy left to fungal or on vipers, the fungal is half way over and 8 tempest out of 9 has half hp+ only 1 tempest should die on the last tick and you could micro split them. that would leave 8 tempest, 2 carriers,4 zealots against only 3 spores, 2 queens, 4inf, 2vipers without energy; even IF neeb goes back recharge all their shields then just split up so fungal+viper can only hit 1 at a time, have carriers in front and just A-move; then neeb wins! it is absolutely impossible for a couple of queens 3 spores, 4inf 2vipers to burn through the HP of 8 tempest 2 carriers individually Even if they clump 2 by 2 it would be impossible to kill their HP pool, and EVERY shot kills 1-2 units, and if the Vipers die it is 100% gameover even if all the units clump and move stupidly as fungals alone will not kill them and they can just return to recharge shield whenever they want. it is impossible for neeb to lose this one if he hadn't done an Idra out of frustration (assuming its true those dots wouldn't have killed 50%hp on the lost ticks, but it really doesn't look like it would and even if it killed ust of them you still has two carriers to buffer).

Hey Lowko, don't know if you're going to read this but I want to tell you how awesome your casts are for me (and many others). My older brother told me about starcraft if 2004 (I was 6 years old), and when WoL came out we played the sht out of it. Recebtly I found your channel and your casts reignited my intetest in the game (as a spectator). You make the games feel so alive and your casting ability is enviable to say the least, please keep casting man!
I know this video just released and I only started watching it now, but I saw a fungal parasitic combo landing on a voidray clump (thumbnail) and you have no idea how much I wanna see that.

A lot of people are surprised that Neeb held his own so well. Neeb used to be the best performing foreigner in the history of SC2. He's still one of the top earners of all time. Before the era of Serral was the era of Neeb, where he was completely indestructible. Changes in the Meta knocked him down a couple pegs, and he's seemed demoralized for the past few years, but since changing teams we're seeing more and more glimpses of the unstoppable force Neeb used to be. I think we'll be seeing a lot more Neeb v Serral in the near future, and I don't think they're all going to go in Serral's favor.
The only anti air Serral had was like 3 dying spores, he still killed the fleet. Never seen a comeback quite like that. I thought it was already over, that retreat of his was so deceiving.

@@Erebus2075 Carriers with what? Look at Neeb's minerals. Those don't have any interceptors. 2 queens? Can you count? Serral had 8 queens WITH energy as they even transfused the corruptor. 1 corruptor survived. 2 more just hatched from eggs. Zergs and broods will kill the zealots. The infestors are waiting for energy. The tempests are still dying from the fungal. Are you sure you're not imagining things? Assuming the Tempests survive. How can Neeb win with them? He has no minerals, no mining. Serral is still continuing to mine. Serral can have a snack and the Tempests still won't be done with destroying his bases. Then he could just rebuild and finish off NEEB.

@@Erebus2075 Serral still had a couple of queens, infestors and vipers left. You can see right at the end of the game how neebs supply drops to 47, so there was still enough AA damage to kill the heavily damaged units. The carriers also only had a few inteceptors left, with no money to rebuilt them so they were pretty much paperweights. And Serral still had a little money and was mining. Year Neeb might have still been able to pull a rabbit out of his hat, but i think Serral had the game in his bag at this point.

After a shitty exhausting week at work, there are few things that bring me joy as a long game of sc2 casted by lowko. Thanks man
Am I the only one who gets sad when the you tube video doesn’t star with, “Hello Everyone my name is Lowko!!”.
Neeb is looking absolutely incredible. To go from almost retiring to producing this level of game is fantastic to see. I've always liked Neebs style and I'm delighted to see him doing well. Serral for me is the best player in the world and I think pretty much any other Zerg would have tapped out in this game. We know the man is not a machine but he sure sometimes feels like it. Breathtaking game. Well played to both and thank you for the cast Lowko.

It feels like no one remembers when he used to be the world champ. Getting knocked down seems like it knocked the wind out of him, but before Serral he was the best performing foreigner of all time, and the highest earning SC2 player ever. I think the change in scenery is pulling him out of his slump.

I for one, am delighted to see Neeb regaining some of his past magic. Thank you for your comment 😀
i really love Serral, so patient, he knows what he going to face, and so careful calculate those.... I want to said the army, but he calculate all, including worker and supply, 32:23 omg serral forgot that bottom left base for so long of time, BTW, top right base still got some money, may be better to get that? not sure is it worth tho. 35:39 look at those ultralisk butt skytoss are powerful, but if they have a few storm, the game may be totally opposite

44:35 "Too far foward!! TOO FAR FORWARD!!!"
Man, another classic after the banger during HSC. Game 3 and Serral, down and pretty much out, rallies back to take the win and avoid the sweep. I don't know if he ever came close to losing a series again after that moment.

Yeah Serral pretty much dominated the entire tourney except for this series. But if anyone is capable of pulling off a reverse sweep, it would be him.
If we had the injections on the hatcheries in the production tab too, I would be happy.
Having a creep percentage on playbacks when Zerg are playing would be a wicked nice update.
Imagine how much worse it would be if fungal growth still rooted units...

Crazy good game.
Zerg really gotta pull some moves to win against lategame protoss. Even with all that Serral barely managed to win and mainly because Neeb refused to abuse that left side base. It's so stressful for a scrub like me to go against similar comps.
That was insane.

Truth
Daaarn, the base on the bottom was just sitting with the hatchery on for 10 good minutes. All it would take just 6 drones and probably 5 seconds of attention to quietly mine it out.
Serral vs. Neeb is just good Starcraft. :)
If a friend of mine asked me for a good game of pro SC2 I'd show them this game. Good showing from both players. USA, USA, USA!!! Neeb is the NA hope.
That was awesome.
I think I followed Neeb since 2012? Maybe at least around that time when I I was watching the TB king of the hill tournament, seeing him now giving such a game against Serral is amazing on both part, I was expecting a best of 5 considering the length of the video but wtf

Banelings have never had any special interactions with shields, and shields in SC2 are dealt damage just the same way as to the unit's base HP are - if a unit has +Light damage, it deals that extra damage to a Zealot's shields as well as its normal HP. The Baneling nerfs moved a lot of its damage from general damage to being +Light specifically (used to be 20dmg +15 to Light, now 16 base +19 Light), which nerfed them against most Protoss units (sans Probes, Zealots, Sentries and Templar).
Great game!
Amazing game.
Wow what a game!!
EVERY TIME THE TWO COME TOGETHER TO FIGHT HE PANS AWAY!!!!!!!!!!! EVERY TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I wonder if Serral built the base in the lower left precisely to get an opening when Neeb moved to destroy it.
you forgot to say "Don't forget to smile. alright.
Errrr, one hand Neeb is the pride of Murica, the other hand is The Goat. Not sure who to cheer for. I cannot believe that the MOBA unit was the deciding factor. Good call Lowko.

I think Neeb lacked some macro here. He should've mined a little more when he had a chance, he had real chance to starve Serral of resources. Also it was painful to watch how he committed the whole army to killing the corner base when just like 2 void rays would be sufficient.
I think there is some significant problem with late game ZvP balance: Zerg spellcasters and ati-air is way more better than anything! Corruptors: tanky, fast, high single shot damage; Queen: OP healing (still thinking it should be nerfed, at least decrease the instant healing); Viper: AOE AA damage (parasitic bomb), Abduct (instakill 90%), Blinding cloud (one of the strongest spells in the game); And finally the Infestor with fungii. Protoss just doesn't have the correct response - void rays are dying to the fungii+parasitic bomb, tempests are vulnerable to abduction because they are slow, carriers are straight garbage unit since 2018 - so whats left to fight Zerg air? Phoenix and stalkers? With no chance to rely on the static defense because it will be killed the moment army moves out? I think there should be some clever and unusual solution other than straight buff to Protoss units, like a late-game upgrade that make Photon canons and batteries able to teleport once in a while. Another approach is to get rid of the Abduction completely because its the only instant spell in the game that almos guarantees a unit kill, hence in the late game where the resourcces are mined out it helps to trade for free.
Uggh, i really love starcraft ..
It's kind of insane how quickly Neeb's skill rate is increasing.

He used to be the best performing foreigner in the history of the game, there was a time when everyone thought he was unbeatable. For about two years, no one could beat Neeb with anything resembling consistency. I think losing his top spot demoralized him a bit, but the change in teams has kicked him back into gear. It's good to see him getting back in the swing of things.
I really wish you could blow up probes to restore hull health kinda like wisps in wc3, maybe as a late game upgrade or something, it always feels bad where you have to throw away probes and might end up having to rebuild them, scvs can repair and be phased out with mule mining, while drones can just fluidly added or reduced with static defense. It also avoids the conundrum of do you kill your own red hp carriers and tempest because they would be bad in a frontal clash? Or do you hope it doesn't come down to that and be efficient with your money?
Wow!
star craft 3 is coming out the bata is out in 2023 but its on steam its called storm gate the creaters of war craft and star craft have joind to gether for this

Last time I checked, Serral has 2 hands. But he should have 8 fingers on each hand that I didn’t check
