      Stu style of editing and just going pure business slightly more is slightly better for me. It's just easier to appreciate how precise some moments can be, feels more tense that way as well.
      Personally when it comes to watching someone else gameplay how it's done on this channel is just perfection as I didn't ever had any extra questions beyond what is provided by the added text in the video.
      Dunno, it just have that slick, professional feeling the way it's done here.

      @aceshighdueceslow ปีที่แล้ว +10

      @@andrzejnadgirl2029 I think what Stu does is great for TH-cam, since they're doing straight recordings as opposed to doing edited VODs from Twitch streams. Sometimes those are nice, say if it's someone just doing a 20 minute summary of something that took them several days worth of 6 hour streams (I don't watch Twitch, I don't know how long streams tend to last) and they're highlighting the good bits and a few funny things that happened.
      When it comes to speedruns or similar challenges, I do like to watch the whole thing instead of just the good bits from a couple missions to demonstrate why it was a challenge. It might not get as many views, but I do prefer watching the whole playthrough as opposed to an edited down version

    Your channel easily has some the best SC2 campaign content that exists. Would love to see a full "Destroy Everything" run of each campaign mission with your play style - my favorite missions to watch from your speedrunning series are those where you take this approach. Your clears of All In, Zero Hour, Sudden Strike, etc. are all absolutely impeccable.

    • @amplesstratleholm7609

      I dunno if someone has done Destroy Everything on LotV, but that seems like a great idea, though I'm not sure how possible that would be (I guess Rakshir is the bottleneck). DaveyGunface and GGG haven't covered that yet (they only did WoL and HotS).
