Side note - Has Harstem ever gone on a tangent about Dutch cheese? I'd love to know some unique facts about Gouda, Edam, Leerdammer, etc. Maybe we need to start of poll to guess his favourite.
@@BrewKnowURSA One of the fun facts: foreigners just classify Dutch cheeses by their origin city (Gouda, Edam, Leerdam, etc), but in the Netherlands we have different types of Gouda, Edammer, Leerdammer, etc. There is Belegen, Jong Belegen, Jonge Kaas, Ouwe Kaas and then there are measures of how much fat it contains (40+, 30+, etc). Ouwe Kaas literally means Old Cheese...
When he said: "This game decided to fatalty me", you said you didn't see that the first time. But he sent that message while you were watching the replay ;)
Bgmwss: Killing the workers was an effective strategy, however, they were replenished too quickly due to advances in technology over the recent centuries. Using the disruptor technology we've recently developed, snipe your opponents nexi and prevent worker creation.
What makes watching Harstem cheese so entertaining is that unlike most cheesers, he doesn't need to win with the cheese, he just needs to do more economic damage than it cost. Most players are used to being able to out-macro a cheeser if they can survive the cheese.
Man I have been looking at white label energy drinks to see if I can't get some Bane Boost stuff out there but it only starts at 8 cases haha. Should I just pull the trigger for the memes?
That game against Trigger... was triggering my empathy for the young Canadian. That must have been a really frustrating game to defend. That "GG" came from a special place.
@@henningbreede6428 You have to weight the cost of a photon cannon vs what is attacking. 1-2 oracles, or 1 pheonix probably isn't worth it, just better to put a few stalkers there. But when you see a bunch of pheonix's or lots of air - then put down a cannon. Even just 1 cannon will at least help zone the flyers.
I always wonder particularly after the first cannon is up why they dont build a battery to extend the life of the active cannon.. you see so often that cannon gets a few shots off and dies and then the next cannon is kind of still building so isn't putting pressure.
I think he was muted by harstem in a previous game. If I remember correctly you'll see the messages from a muted player in a replay, but not in game. Not 100% sure tho.
@@LEpigeon888 It could have been too early in the game to make the edit. The episode begins with the first pylon already under construction, and in the replay, you can see the message come in before the pylon. Though I guess I don't know exactly how long the message would stay on screen.
I mean to be fair cannon rushing puts you somewhat behind as well and also the terran wasn't in a good position after losing the workers "still in the game" is a bit of a stretch
I was surprised you didn't target the mules in the first game's cannon rush/with the oracle. The opponent's worker count was so bewildering it threw you off. xD Edit: Are oracles just bad without +1 now? taking an extra hit to kill workers/marines seems like it made them kinda bad.
Considering everything else the oracle has to offer aside from harassing the mineral line they kinda don't suck. Harassing early game vs a protoss who constantly envisions your army becomes a pain in the ass, then you need to worry about stasis traps that can ruin your push.
The absolute glee when the phoenix lifted the guard probe. I love the enthusiasm.
harstem loves when a good plan comes together
Terran players are notoriously late with their second hatchery.
Believe it or not, but some grand master terran players can go an entire game without ever building one!
@@tomatodamashi The more you know!
100% of Protoss agree!
Terran has mind control now?
@@stephenfritz7493 since StarCraft 1 already! Haven't you played the Terrain campaign(s)? You control the zerg a few times. ;)
"who scouts after second gas??!!" A man who just lost to phoenix adept.
Exactly what I was thinking XD
"this is the plan"
me: why do you have a phoenix? what's it going to do? watch the adepts put in work?
*lifts the gate keeper*
when Harstem almost says "road to rank one" instead of "cheesiest man alive" afterwards, you know the game was a banger
Thanks for updating the counter from last week cap'n. Also Cuku single "G"d so you could put it at 26.5/45 instead as a joke.
The double gold at the end 😂😂 such a cheesy way to survive and eventually win
His reward for scouting the first cheese is an even stupider double gold cheese
if the cheese is old it can either be great or spoiled. Looking forward to finding out which!

@@Kholdaimon This is why I follow the SC2 scene. Highly educationally... and genre-crossing with my other passion: food.
Cheese only gets better with age
unless its nacho or american
I agree mr. Sergey
@0:15 LMAO!! Gotta watch those Terran hatcheries!
I honestly would watch a whole cannon rushing series lol, i love it
Same. I don't play SC2 but I want to see how far I can get with pure cannon rush.
I think he has exactly that
@@steven13929 mid gm is possible for sure

Once you get to high- GM that's not really the case anymore- even super macro players like Serral have to be ok with pulling out cheese
"No second hatchery yet because we are playing against a terran player" omg I Harstem that was hilarious
@14:40 your plan worked! Then... 'an Immortal!?!' 😜
The last guy didn't GG, he Ged! With a single G.
The fearsome ear destroying war cry of Harstem. YAYAYAYAYYAYAYAHAHAYYAYAYAYAYAYAYYAYA
That stolen gold base was an absolute MVP.
Grandpa Harstem's old cheese looked absolutely fantastic
Fantastic final game. So cool so original! Really happy.double gold and mass adept vs Terran. So great.
36:25 he only G so the counter should increase half only 🤣
That last game was really good
To this day the only build order I know vs Zerg is Zealot Immortal two base. Zerg remains my best matchup.
that game against Cuku was insane, i can't believe you won that
My favorite format 🤩 just need to get a ice cold bane boost to enable full enjoy mode
Man I have been looking at white label energy drinks to see if I can't get some Bane Boost stuff out there but it only starts at 8 cases haha. Should I just pull the trigger for the memes?
This is as old as Bitto Storico (18 years old cheese) :D

That 2nd game with the Pheonix's - a small investment in a couple of photon cannons shuts down the entire plan, lol.
'small loan of a million dollars..'
Spotted a max gold league player. It's impossible to afford "a couple of photon cannons" at that point in the game.

They usually don't have a core yet so can't build shield battery
@@handushk ahhh thanks bro!
Those games werde all really sick
Wait wtf, the "this game decided to fatality me" message in the first game replay never showed up in the actual match

That second game was beautiful.
Ever after killing 15 workers Terran can still stay in the game with the power of miles. 😂

More like the power of playing against a terrible composition.
Hamburger thanks for the great video! Love your content😳😳
way to go captain, and great tunes this week
Best content on TH-cam
Poor Trigger, just got hit by uthermal's cheese a few days ago 🤣
Last game was hella fun!
I feel old. I remember spending weekend after weekend playing the beta. So many changes.
Great work captain
Harstem I had an idea for your beating GM's with stupid stuff series:
Only using units / strategies from StarCraft: Broodwar. No sc2 units.
Also known as Platinum PvZ ... Carrier Templar Zealot only
You're a content MACHINE!
you are dedicated thats for sure my dude.
Canon rush into DTs ... always the way
Dat artosis pylon and stolen gold . mint game.
How did you “see” the mine at 9:28?
the Oracle. if you're asking why he knew it was there, he saw them walk there a few seconds earlier
Asking "no?" as to confirm something said before sounds very very french to me......
Do you think protoss is in a good spot compared to zerg and terran
Sick last game.
The last game was only one G, so the counter should only go up by 0.5 :)
Stupid stuff suggestion: Gold bases, but with Nexi built on the 'wrong' side.
CuKu always having a bad time on Harstem's channel
I was surprised you didn't target the mules in the first game's cannon rush/with the oracle. The opponent's worker count was so bewildering it threw you off. xD
Edit: Are oracles just bad without +1 now? taking an extra hit to kill workers/marines seems like it made them kinda bad.
Considering everything else the oracle has to offer aside from harassing the mineral line they kinda don't suck. Harassing early game vs a protoss who constantly envisions your army becomes a pain in the ass, then you need to worry about stasis traps that can ruin your push.
I loved 4th game!

hellofriendsandwelcomebackto
HI HARSTEM I HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY BECAUSE YOURE AWESOME!!!! 🐋
nice game
After watching this series, I accidentally ordered twelve charcuterie boards and I love it.
Mass adepts were way cooler than the cheeses. You kinda crammed BGMWSS in here.
The boss!
Unreal 4th game.
Was here before he changed the title kekw
stupid stuff idea. All your expansions must be built on your opponent's half of the map.
ye
👍
NICE
