"oh I have very high ping, that means I will go macro instead of micro": goes mass reapers

You asked for idea for challange. May I suggest one? You go fulll turtle and you are not allowed to attack your opponent bases until you are max supp. Then you play however you want. I really enjoy watching macro games :)

Watching those zerglings fly around from the grenades was beautiful.

Thank you so much for posting more vids 💗 💕 💓 I can't play SC2 right now because of a condition I have and watching you makes me so happy, both because of your personality and because of your amazing gameplay! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

I love your mass reaper micro. So sick. This is my favorite series by far, and they are all great. PF to top ten lets fucking go!

These new names are fucking great. xXEvilsmurfx hahaha

Always amazed how you can play so well while commenting on your play. Keep it up!

Man i love to watch your videos ! :D I found my love to sc2 because of you . All the great strategies and possibilities you showed us

Have you considered doubling down on the PF rush? Rush with 2 PFs instead of just one?

@@fytube7818 That is an understatement. I did a lot of planetary rush with structure armor back in the days. It reduces zergling/queen damage to 0.5 - making it practically immune to early zerg tech. It does not have to delay the attack for minutes. You just build the engineering bay very early. The upgrade also helps a lot on the command center - making it very much easier to keep alive while morphing! I think it is worth a shot!

Most of the time it wouldnt be worth it since the extra delay means the enemy has more units and thus can deal with it better.

That is a truly legendary MMR for a planetary rush! Even if you can't sustain it this is still incredible, nicely done:) Time to head to your second channel for a bit more crazy stuff!

I look forward to the next episode of Planetary Rush to GSL champion :D

Hahaha you made me laugh so hard with the 2 Barracks cost more than one 🤣❤️

That first game was great, seeing the planetary supported by tanks is super satisfying

That first game. That is how I have been saying is the best way to use a PF. Don't fly it into the base to lose it right away ( Or win sometimes ) But use it to lock down the other player on the map. and use it as a point to control and push by keeping it alive. Chocking them out.

Dude blinked _into_ the planetary!

the scv that's left over should start building a bunker some space behind the command centre when it lands and starts transforming into a planetary, maybe some bunkered reapers could deal with the ling spam that usually comes?

you can do different timings by building 3-5 SCVs at the proxy hatch before flying in.

The silliest of all the gooses! Thanks for the upload

Always Bangin'

dude, you are a content creating beast.

You were such a silly goose in this game

It's always a good day when uthermal uploads 🏯

Would it make sense to build a factory or barracks in your natural cc's place to fake an expand? I know they're different sizes but I bet opponents wouldn't always notice.

Just noticed that its always Protoss that get salted by the saltcannon, I wonder why?

Evil Smurf 🤣

I know you like cheese, uThermal. So I have a strategy for you to attempt - in PvZ, specifically. It isn't "a cheese" with one tight build to follow, so much as a cheesy strategy that takes advantage of a significant weakness built into Zerg. The Zerg weakness you seek to poke at is Zerg's lack of response options to massing Void Rays. Typically Zerg has only one early option - build lots of Queens, build Spore Crawlers, and sit back on defense unable to build other effective combat units or expand freely without walking a lot of Queens out to take space. Their Overlords can't move out to scout. It's PAINFUL, from the Zerg side, to have to play this way. Zergs will typically want to change this dynamic by going for mass Corruptors (and maybe Hydras) to give themselves a more mobile army that can actually cross the map. Occasionally they will try Infestors. If an Overlord can sneak out, a Nydus Worm counterattack might get tried. But this bind of restricted clumsy responses is where the cheese part of the strategy comes into play. Your army composition, roughly, is something like: - a number of Void Rays, to create a problem Zerg needs to solve - a number of Stalkers (vs massing Corruptors and/or Vipers) - Blink here is important to get; don't forget it. - a Warp Prism and 2 Disruptors (vs massing Queens and to decimate drone lines defended by Spore Crawlers) - a couple of Oracles (possibly replaced by a couple of Observers if you lose your Oracles) The way that I'd suggest opening is Stargate into 2 Oracles. The first Oracle defends vs zergling cheeses until you have your second Oracle, then you cross with both Oracles to do damage. Ideally, you hide the Stargate and the first Oracle from any Overlord scout. You want to at least kill something if you reveal your opening, rather than give out the info for free. So it can make some sense (in a cheesy world anyway) to proxy the Stargate on your own side of the map where it will waste tons of Zerg's scouting time to ever find. You use the Oraces to semi-contain while you expand, build up a Void Ray count to help, and at some point completely wall off at home so that a run-by of fast Zerglings doesn't zip past your Void Ray semi-contain. You never engage the Queens. You just make them walk out en masse to fight, then fall back calmly. At a certain point, you make the Warp Prism and the 2 Disruptors. Queens, being slow and needing to mass up to contest your mass Void Rays. You hit the massed Queens with your Disruptors as you force a fight with your Void Rays, then clean up vs the injured Queens. It's a bit of a messy fight sometimes, but you do win it and can then just utterly wreck Zerg's bases while they scramble to put together new anti-air defenses. Against mass Corruptors, you don't need that tech. Instead you just split your army - some Void Rays, some Stalkers (with Blink). It doesn't take that many Stalkers to make even a huge ball of Corruptors feel like garbage. The whole build doesn't really need any upgrades or a lot of production, other than Blink for the Stalkers. So despite some of the units being expensive, the build itself isn't all that bad. You can kind of execute it off of 2-3 bases - two that are walled off (Void Rays fly out, the Warp Prism ferries Disruptors out, Stalkers blink out) and then maybe a third base hidden in a corner somewhere that gives you extra minerals/gas without needing to defend an obvious forward base. The whole idea is just to make Zerg play in the most miserable way possible - that's the cheese. They are forced to turtle and move their Queens together in a ball, they can't send out effective scouting or harassment squads, their creep spread can be pathetic, and a lot of units that some Zergs love to build (like Zerglings, Roaches, Banelings, Brood Lords, Mutalisks) may as well not be part of SC2 because they'll be utterly useless. You pigeonhole them into a play-style of YOUR choosing, one that they don't know but that you (because you use this cheese strat at least occasionally; possibly often) know very well. Things that come up sometimes: - Oracles might want to put down Stasis Wards to help contain. If Queens walk out and some get caught, that can be a moment for mass Void Rays to swarm in and take an advantageous engagement. - Observers are good to spot desperate moves, like burrowed Roaches trying to sneak out (perhaps with the help of a Dropperlord to get them past the mass Void Ray semi-contain). It is an easy way to catch it without having to move your camera around. You don't need that many; 2 is usually enough. - Sometimes the play with the early 2 Oracle harass, once they are repelled by Queens and/or Spore Crawlers, is to Stasis Ward in clever places to slow down Zerg's ability to expand. One "cool trick" I like is to catch the drone that wants to make a new base before it can get there. Another trick can be to place a well timed Stasis Ward behind the mineral line of a base about to be taken, just before Zerg moves out to take it - they end up triggering the ward with new drones that are mining, slowing down Zerg's economy. When the Oracles can't be used aggressively anymore, things like this can buy a bit of time to increase your Void Ray count. - Going against on-creep Queens + mass fast Zerglings can be awkward. You really want the Warp Prism to deliver the Disruptors to/from battle, to guard them vs a metric ton of fast Zerglings rushing them down. But the Warp Prism can get picked off by Corruptors/Queens if you aren't careful enough there. Of all of the easy early defenses Zerg has while it scrambles for some kind of way to actually go on offense, this is the one you need to get down to a science. Or... just suck it up build an extra Warp Prism and 2 more Disruptors too at a certain point, in case one gets picked off. It really depends on whether you have that third base up and running (and maybe a 4th, depending on how effective your contain has been). - The mistake is typically getting overzealous with trying to kill Zerg's units just because an exchange is favorable. You end up losing too many Void Rays at once, Zerg despite the semi-contain can remax faster than you, and things start to unravel. It is better to just squeeze the Zerg, forcing them to fight for inches without ever giving them that big engagement until the one they do get is the one where you wipe them out practically for free.

If ever you have heaps of reapers, they become much more effective, when you back them up with hellions. Reaper, hellion, BC is a good opening.

Wow, +1 reapers SHRED. Queens especially are pretty tough usually, but they just melted after +1 o.O.

Yes!!! My favorite series 😂

That first Planetary was amazing! 🤩

Would be nice if you upgrade the Fortress armor and +2 attack at Bay ;)

“No creep” to grandmeister

Why don't you use a PF in the centre of the map against Zerg, and use it to get a forward radar?

11:55 Couldn't you kill the creep tumor with reaper grenades?

Hey, Thermy, for the mind games when you're parked out front their natural with the planetary... what about shaking their resolve and floating a second CC overhead as if you're planning to drop it in the main? Sure, it might not work and 400 minerals is a solid dump for what amounts to a ramp scout... but the mind games might break your opponent.

Rush with 2 PFs

Terran FTW!!!

Rule of them for mining count, is calcualte your mules at 4.5 or just make it 4.. rounding down works better because you would be more ahead.. with a non over estimation. technically with three mules active your worker value is 35+12.... or more exact 13.5. or over estimate is using 5... 50.... anyways your worker count is 47... so... mules are powerful economic heros of hte Terran army.. allows high army cap.. and mules cost no supply.. I think they should cost suppy because it would balance the power of mules.. but skill wise.. most players don't have the skill to manage terran as well as it oculd be, and imo, Zerg is just more fun to play... you have what I call all units have static cloak and basically you can harrass in comical ways... lmao... Althoug hI jsut watched a game, where someone did somethign I mentioend a long time ago.. which is you pile up your BC's.. you make a route(shift click path) then you add spell casting like trans warp.. and then shift Yomamto to each target.... your T-jump needs a slight plannign takes about 10 seconds to do... with about 15 Bc's... so once you have all those orders bascially automated in a chain command, you simply need to keep vision ofthose targets and scan and then can freely manage your other units... while your shift routing command operates. THus.. Ithink it was Byun game verse creator or something.. when htey exit Tactical jump.. all your yomato cannons fire... at their targets... first.. and lightning speed and hten auto attack. decimating any army.. from 160... supply sky tooss to 16 supply in about 6 seconds.. the magic nad power of shift controlign and tactical jump re distributes units in thir proper space so they are not over lapped so its like magic boxing your enemies also... It was good to see, oftne if you TJ and then yomato you ru nthe risk of targeting your own ships and over target other units... good see good routing plants for units that are not oftne used. SPell casting routs can be really effective, of course.. they can get picked off easy too... drops it doesn't work so well.. infestors it can work, ghosts it can work... if set a shift move, into SHIfT (spell) into shift move and then shift nuke.. so it optimizes route, and shift retreat... High templars.. can wonder about and psi storm an area nd move back ,but they are obviously quite slow... magic of shift spell casting.. It also works well with siege tanks.
