The tangent about cycling was golden, I appreciate such introspective thoughts in casts and I have consumed my fair share of casts over the last 5+ years of watching SC2 TH-camrs
If watching this on Harstem channel: " Haha, beat his ass, Harstem, you got this!" If watching this on Reynor channel: "Come on, Reynor, beat his ass, he's nothing!" Can't be helped, love them both.
so at the start of this video the way you talk about yourself triggered a memory and the a comparison and i think it was interesting one. During the opening moment i felt like the crew did in the matrix when someone runs into the room and yells Neo is fighting Morpheus. 'Harstem is fighting Reynor !!'. I literally stopped all other activities except eating lunch to watch this. Great game by the way.
G1; GGWP; you started out strong with some off the best early game stalker micro i've seen you do; near no hp loss and took out properly 1k res; you pulled them back skillfully as the micro to keep them safe now would hindre your next move. did a really solid hold (biggest mistake was the 1 templar who got ambushed and killed as the first victim.) midgame you lost focus bc your brain blocked and you couldn't see how a chokepoint, with highground advantage, templars, tempest, static defence under; would be the perfect place to constantly trade shields for hp and resource. think protoss most consistant improvement should be in trading shield for hp; constantly; whenever your not doing something important you are trading shield for hp; from the very early scouting probe to the late-midgames tempest with constant revelation and photons + shield bat infront off them; the creeping doom static, as long as you keep them so you can get reasonable far behind they should be safe from vipers and fighting on top off your doomstack defence should garantee your win the trades ^^
Hi Harstem. I've watched plenty of Reynor's stream and his weak spot ZvP is late game skytoss. For future games if you strive to transition faster. Mid game tech is fighting in his wheelhouse. Adepts early also :) ggs!
7:23 honestly yer, its the best control ive seen you do ^^ stalkers has been engaged almost constantly, they picked off a lot off free units before escaping home for the defence. you didn't overbuilt units and had only as many as you effectively could use, you saved the archon (we almost never see that and its such a strong 2apm move:P ) love the thight controll more off that :D
In case you’re not aware…There are many #1’s, as the servers are based on regions. So byun can be a #1 and this doesn’t stop Reynor from being number 1.
I'd love to see a map hacker episode where out captain plays in the metal leagues, and utterly destroys the map hackers anyway. They are a cancer in to lower leagues. In about 1 in 5 games the replays show peeking, preemptive army movements, and blind counters with zero vision of the opponent. I really want to see some of these players banned, or at least embarrassed by harstem
Hmm, they have no shame. They will lose every time they encounter someone who's using their brain and still coin-flip the rest. They likely have about 65% win rate that drops rapidly as soon as they hit their ceiling, so losing a game to Harstem wouldn't really phase them.
Yes? Protoss is very strong into an even late game vs Zerg. Reynor and Serral are just that much better than any toss. Have you already forgotten how the two have managed to get zerg nerfed several times in the past?
@@rykehuss3435 problem is that in lategame zerg corruptors is just stronger. And as toss you cannot mass voidrais because of vipers. So corruptors and vipers kill all toss air. And all toss ground units will be killed by broodlords and lurkers with hydra.
@@ЮрийСергеевич-з9е Vipers require good micro. If opponent massing corruptors, you can just not continue to build air?? if youre losing the air battle. confusing idea for a late game toss I know but try it. Corruptor almost completely useless waste of supply in that case. You get easy 30-40 supply edge in full army engagements. Amazing. Thats enough to walk over the zerg ground army of lurkers and hydra with immortals, zealots, archon And lurkers are not good for engaging, so its not like you have to commit anywhere if opponent is massing lurkers and corruptors. Use your brain. Lurkers are expensive, and corruptors only shoot up.
Yes. PvZ lategames are usually devolve into stalemates with Tempests and High Templar/Archons against Brood Lords and Corruptors. Protoss can usually win if they keep their Tempests alive, but it definitely is difficult. A ball of Corruptors is really strong and can survive long enough to dive on all the air units, so it is not an easy task. Zergs can also just press the issue a lot of times and be okay with some losses if they eliminate key Protoss units. It always looks difficult to be Protoss, but I think the end game is relatively balanced. A lot of it just comes down to good unit control.
Cycling is easy for the legs but hard on the buttmuscles if you cycle longer distances (upwards of roughly 4 hours on a bike). I cycle quite fast and long distances myself, I pass everybody on a normal electrical bike and some on a mountainbike and roadbike (racing bike).
Why even build carriers lol. There has never been a unit so garbage against Zerg. Then again no Protoss units are good against Zerg. Let me (a low rank shitter) explain to you (an actual pro) how to win PvZ: Win before he gets 3 bases or you're toast.
Win fast for sure, upgrade melee units and mix in the rest as you go, it is fun to Rush Zerg as Toss. They often seem puzzled. I suck at the game currently though, trying to get hot keys down!
Winning over D class korean zerg at dreamhack was the worst thing that happened to this channel. We had funny and creative content from semi-pro guy, now we got semi-pro guy being a tryhard at ladder which noone serious takes seriously. I'm out, have fun guys
theres only so many platinum IODIS (spoiler: you suck) reviews before you lose your mind. this game is complex but the content you can create from it is not. you psychoanalyze a youtuber you dont know for putting in effort in a game he is passionate and devoted to XDD. i think he was top 5 on ladder recently? currently top 14 in whole of EU. what a bizarre emotional response. get lost mate
@@kurt-o0o I did get lost, I unsubscribed and out so please stop tagging me so I don't get notifications. I came here for funny content like rank roulette. If I want to watch "pro gamer laddering" I think there are better places to do so than someone who on aligulac is placed between mana and krystianer
Bro is opening with a nose scout 0:25

Can't be helped, love them both.
7:49 placing a stasis in the mineral wall where Zerg is 100% going to push again would be an S tier move
And some cannons, their stats are amazing for their cost, if you know the enemy is going to attack a specific spot, there is no reason not to do it.
Have you seen overseas? There was 3 of them haha
Lol Raynor didn't want to bother with harstem anymore so he sent his little brother instead.
"I cant remember why i forgot..."
"Which is one of the main issues of forget"
LOL no truer statement...
Whenever I'm cheesing, I hear Harstem singing "Here comes the cheese" to Here Comes the Sun in my head.
0:25 no scout < nose scout

thats how u take revenge, if some guy slaps u multiple times u just beat up his little brother
@1:10 I misheard Swarm hosts as Shoarmas, I'm going to stick with that
1:31 that emblem in the face of rank #1! :D
7:23 honestly yer, its the best control ive seen you do ^^

love the thight controll more off that :D
12:20 tempest. as the two carriers held the push, its tempest time or other anti lurker stuff ^^
The lyrics are actually "Little darling, it's been a long, cold, lonely winter".
I thought the title was The Rank 1 on Ladder Harstem at first lol came to drop a huge grats
Just watched a bunch of your videos lol. Good stuff btw ! Nice to see you here ! ^^
"let's take out some anger here on the family" 🤣🤣
We need a tournament of everyone's siblings
Wow, wouldn't think that Reynor is #1. I guess he has played a LOT of ladder matches
In case you’re not aware…There are many #1’s, as the servers are based on regions. So byun can be a #1 and this doesn’t stop Reynor from being number 1.
In any case they all can kick my ass!
What kind of mouse and keyboard set up do you use?
1 mouse, 1 keyboard. hope that helps
@ 21:38 cause you forgot to remember
Oh no! Harstem is getting into cycling. Videos are about the plummet xD PS Cycling is my favorite hobby! It's just extremely time consuming!
He's Dutch, they're born on a bicycle
I'd love to see a map hacker episode where out captain plays in the metal leagues, and utterly destroys the map hackers anyway. They are a cancer in to lower leagues.

Lost the connection at 33:17, and had to look at Harstems worst focusface for 2 minutes 😮
When you can't beat up your rival so you beat up his little brother. 😅
You have to do an iodis for serral vs clem!
I thought Harstem was the rank 1 protoss on the ladder, XD.
need your opinion on EWC.
How much do we have to sponsor an event to get the legit Grandma's of our current scene to do a SC2 battle...
breaking news: dutch person got into cycling
I would like to see Harstem play µThermal in Bo5, I am curious who would win. I think that µThermal might still have it to beat him.
love the videos harstem
I swear every time I see you I see Tony Hinchcliffe lol
why does it make you happy when they scoute :D
Is protoss able to win any lategame vs zerg on this level?
Yes? Protoss is very strong into an even late game vs Zerg. Reynor and Serral are just that much better than any toss. Have you already forgotten how the two have managed to get zerg nerfed several times in the past?
as a protoss player not anywhere near that level i find it very difficult to close out matches vs terran a lot not really zerg
@@rykehuss3435 problem is that in lategame zerg corruptors is just stronger.
And as toss you cannot mass voidrais because of vipers. So corruptors and vipers kill all toss air.

i wish i can fight against t like this...
Stormgate will never be better than SC1 or SC2
so good
Who is this harstem guy
Once upon a time a champion, still a good player, would like to see him make a big comeback.
You struggle with oracles huh? Maybe you should do a challenge to fix that...
Gj buddy
Go Harstem
Cycling is easy for the legs but hard on the buttmuscles if you cycle longer distances (upwards of roughly 4 hours on a bike). I cycle quite fast and long distances myself, I pass everybody on a normal electrical bike and some on a mountainbike and roadbike (racing bike).
Wow
Im sure everyone that drives around you going half the speed limit loves that
well played. terrain players are so annoying, little pesks.
First
Jesus your cocky for being hammered twice an then getting a win on a lower mmr then yourself 😂
