Congrats. You have no life.

Nevermind proxyhatches, this is the last episode of this year from Thermy! Lets go 75k and beyond in 2023! Cheers everyone and a special cheers to you Marc for being the single best content creator for SC2 out ther right now. If not for you I wouldn't play this game anymore but thanks to you I still meet up with my brothers on discord and run some cheesy 3v3 or 2v2s.

Don't try to play quickly. Just play correctly. The speed comes to you with muscle memory and repetition. Playing your fundamentals and making good decisions are waaaaaay more important than high APM especially at every rank below grandmaster

Happy new year everyone!

Congratulations! It's fun for me seeing you play something other than Terran. As a zerg player myself (10 years ago when I played) I'd love to see you try some protoss challenges

Those two last games were fantastic and had lots of flavor. A macro transition and then a gambit all in. That's a chef's kiss for sure.

Thanks for all the amazing games, so entertaining! Happy new year! Looking forward to more in the next!

I have noticed against zerg you are usually quite far behind due to banelings. They completely counter proxy spines. I know you don't like playing them, but unfortunately I don't see much of a win condition against high level zerg. They will have defenders advantage and banelings. Roaches won't work unless in high number.

Loving the constant uploads. Happy New Year!

There's a macro challenge for zerg where you spread creep or die and it's really painful, but it really keeps your macro cycles tight.

Best live commentary makes the videos so entertaining and fun to watch best sc2 KZreadr for sure

GGz Marc, this has been a fun one :P! your zerg is looking stronger and stronger

Just watched the last video, that Reaper proxy was awesome!! Keep up the great work Marc!

Heck YEAH! Happy New Year, and what a start it is! Stay safe and keep rockin'!

Happy new year Marc, wish you many good things !

28:36 o7, Brenda. You killed so many reinforcements. What a legendary queen!

Marc, Happy new year. Hope you’re having a good one. Thanks for everything!

Just thought about another fun proxy-hatch option available during later ZvZ games... neuraling an opponent's drone to plop down hatches or static defense. Love your content, keep it up. = )

You’re a champ! Thanks for the great content

On the second map, you could make a proxy hatch close to the two minerals patchs on his in-base expand, then try to get in after mining the minerals.

Happy new year 🎉🎉🎉

Man I've been playing/watching SC for over a decade now so I got a pretty good feel/intuition for how the game state is progressing, but these proxy hatch games...like I honestly don't even know. This series as a whole is Absolutly fascinating.

That 1st zerg definitely new who you are. He was so ready to counter, that banling nest was up so quick and that was it.

The creep tumor challenge from opponent's face to yours and every quarter of the map genius 👏👏👏👏

Units lost vs Z is misleading when banelings are involved. When the stats are equal, the opponent is still ahead, because banelings that self-detonate aren't counted. (Banelings that are killed by the opponent still are, even if they subsequently kill a clump of marines with their splash, but the method of termination matters.)

This is just not true at all. They do not show up in the shift+L tab as units lost, but they are 100% counted as resources lost.

best gm ever!!! so many proxy hatchs i loved! i wanna more zergss

"Silly goose," lol. That reminds me of my Dad, who died in his 70's in the late 2000's. He used to have this prank he'd play on youngsters whenever they'd say something silly. He'd say "Here's something funny - repeat after me:" "Oh wah " "oh wah" "Tah goo" "tah goo" "sigh am" "sigh am" "Good. Now, say that 5 times fast." ".... Ohwahtahgoosigham." "Indeed."

hatchery the back door allows some mining and love... lol

Banneling optimisation is 1 banneling cannot kill 1 banneling. So groups of two bannelings is optimal if they explode on target. If itsa fortified position 3 gives you a back up one to die. You can burrow them also and use htem as banneling traps... Effectie against terran, since terran relies on Scans far to much over ravens. Ravens prevent banneling bombs... using E to explode them verse A move is what I find most peopel struggle with. If your bannelings are too close, then what happens is they kill otehr bannelings and have not exploded, the jsut die to no effect. So double / tripple groupings of bannelings are effective. The area space is you want about 2/3 banneling space ot avoid its aoe killing all your bannelings. Burrow is really good early game or countering against air problems on mineral lines. classic... while a a tower is up, but more often its better to jsut have air, or hydralisk opportunity.... Banneling overlord drops are pretty fun to... overlord trasnports are extremely cheap... in teh sense of what they offer and conversion rate.... breaks ahead of other races at 3 overlord transports.

nvm, bannelings apparently don't do friendly fire anymore.. hmm A move it is.

Also maybe after the challenges end a video showing how to beat them might be interesting

If you send a couple drones to your natural you can get 18/14 extractor trick =)

This is actually awesome.

Let's go!

Mvp Queen in the end there

15:00 Wouldn't aggressive creep tumor in his 3rd base or one near his rear/2nd natural help a lot if he wasn't paying attention? If you managed to get a near-cliff tumor your creep would spread up the ramp and give you vision to a lot of his stuff.

Happy New Year guys....

Hey uthermal, play some age 4 for a change. Happy new year, hope you keep up the good work ❤️

We have the planetary rush, the proxy hatch. When will we get proxy nexus to GM? Could be very fun even as a joke episode. There is some good mindgame and recall potential.

So what would you recommend for the Terran response to a proxy hatch like these two?

How important do you think that quick overlord snipe was in game 1? 3:30

I wonder if making a third spine crawler in ZvZ would make the difference.

what does one g mean?

Any chance you could do an episode explaining how to handle a proxy hatch properly as terran? I get ruined by this every single time :)

From what I got watching uthermal play this, just hold the ramp. Let him take the natural. Because he is always happy to see terrans building a bunker next to the hatch. I think getting two bunkers and a tank should be a comfortable hold. Second cc to drop double mules and expand eventually is a good bet too.

18:20 because you waited, he also heavily over stimmed

Yeah, beatiful episode!

For the maps with Gold bases, doesn't that make them premium proxy hatch locations? The income difference alone should mostly justify pulling half your drones just to begin that extra mining.

10/10 creep spread

Do a series with baneling carpet bombing!

Let's go

at 26:58 you have a few larva after the hatch died why you don't use it?

Terran should take shields 1000% with out medivac steam hurt so much. And shields add billion hp to this army.

maybe some new protos challenge like proxy mothership? xD

Proxy Hatch is the way Zerg is meant to be played.

Hydras to GM!! Lets go :-D

If the opponent only sends one g does he mean "good" or "game" ? :D

Top 10 NA.. What is that in EU. top 50 or top 100?

If you're staking 3 MMR to try for like 55, how do you not go for a BO win?

God save this queen. ;)

I want you to analyze your own game, and see how fast the game changes when those bannelings come into play. Taking out Thors, groups of marines, etc etc. There is no wall off capable of stopping a banneling rush. Trust me, beats a spine crawler and zerglings push. Once you now incorporated bannelings with wall breaks and spine crawler pushes your cheese will go faster. 6 minutes isn’t really a lot of time. Practice, practice with bannelings. If you aren’t good now, you will be if you practice at it. Every professional you see started out as a fumbling newbie.

in the last game what i don't understand is why people don't just make a single tank, tech into stim pack, combat and atleast +1 if not 1/1 slowly break out of your base and expand into a 1-2 base all in when your timings finish. even if you don't think a full assault will result in any meaningful damage you can still do a double drop for harassment while you ahve tank + bunker defense at home on the ramp

Silly goose, I don’t like using bannelings. That is heresy for a Zerg player. Your excuse is I am not good at? Well practice at it until you are is the cure. Once you do get good, you will never go back to not using bannelings.

Zerg is the only race where there is no way u can beat them when they are 2 base ahead.

This is actually worse than the worst build in ZvZ. You have to at least trade a little time to walk your spines in and get maximum DPS, but by the time you do that, you've lost economically.

"...if only the Queens could give themselves a little love..." Every weeb: 🫠

I gotta challenge for ya... you've done so many side quests with these rules. Let's see no rules rank 1. That seems like more of a challenge for you than all these silly rules at this point.
