I've probably been watching you for a year. I mostly watch you, UThermal, and Harstem. You for sure cover my need for a juicy cannon rush. But what keeps me coming back is that you almost always see the game through even if it's botched and your immortal prism micro (and micro in general) is some of the best I've seen. Keeps your games winnable and constantly nail biters!
same here I've also been mainly watching these 3 haha
yeah me too :)
"my need for a juicy cannon rush" is a great way to put it in words hahaha
Thank you! It's worth trying if the 1/50 games can be won and make for a great story!
I'm the same, watching the SC2 trio, was good to have other videos during the break at the end of last year.
I always watch the entire video, and I'm addicted to watching every one.
The games from today were great, the last one was fantastic how you were able to turn it around and get the win!
@ That's awesome, glad you enjoyed it!
Mana, I always watch your videos from start to finish. Best SC2 gameplay IMO. I watch you, Uthermal, and Harstem, but I like your videos the most. And btw I've been watching for about 2 years
The Golden viewer. Thanks a lot for watching my channel for a long time already!
I love your videos and watch them from start to finish. Especially, the canon-rush series. I've been watching for a couple of months. I'm not even a Protoss player; I'm Terran. I'm a big fan of uThermal's content and I think the algorithm showed me your videos because I've been watching his for a few years now. But once I found yours, now they get recommended to me all the time and I watch almost all of them from straight to finish. Your commentating-while-playing style is the most unique of all. It's not only educational but also full of excitement and emotion -- please keep creating.
That's so kind. Thank you. I love it when people can recognize the work I put in and enjoy the full of it!
6:15 Is the reason why I love your video's. Commentary like that is gold!
Same here. EPIC laughter Hahaha.
I love being 1 step ahead of my opponent
I started watching about a year and half ago. I actually started watching because I play 2v2 with my friend and he always is bad at cannon rushes. So I was finding videos on how to cannon rush and yours were the best. I continued to watch because you have an entertaining play style and I enjoy all your challenges. I do enjoy your facial expressions especially when you make big mistakes, you are just honest and laugh it off.
Glad I was able to hook you to keep watching :D
Dude I’m soo glad you are back!
It feels good to be warm welcomed back
Years watching you, and still it feels fresh haha...
Good to see you generating content !
Honestly I can't believe I've been doing StarCraft for such a long time myself. Still excited about it all :)
I remember Raven commenting on how you bravely supported the Polish national team in SC1. It's great that you still enjoy StarCraft. You are the most distinguished StarCraft player in Poland. Powodzenia Grzegorz!
I always watch from start to finish. Sometimes I even rewind to get a better look at what I just saw! I saw your tournament match against Clem recently where you won the first game with a fast mothership and it was such a beautiful game! You actually made Clem look desperate and I loved it! Entaro Tassadar!
Haha Clem usually destroys me without any trouble and I play so many matches with him. Glad you enjoy the content!
Long time viewer here. This is my favourite series of yours. Glad to see it return again.
Thanks for still watching!
The golden buddies always here !
Your game at 10min was cool. This strategy has many advantages. I think the terran could be better, but whatever you completely open him.
At 11.53, one alternative build should be to not go on another canon/ battery but to build another nexus. In this situation, it wasn't necessary, ofc, but in some situations, it can be interesting to abandon the siege position and start the " normal game" 2 bases vS 1.
Considering pylon give 8 supply and nexus 15 + spell, + drones + better def ( if sneaky drop etc ) you would lose "only" 226 Cristal. Basically, you have 2 workers and one Canon less but one nexus more. If the ennemi Look more résistant, you should give a try to instant nexus when you can still hold your position at least for 1 min more.
I've only subscribed recently as I got recommended more and more sc2 videos. I've started to play (and watch) starcraft again after a 4 year break. I really enjoy how much fun you have with the game! Really awesome poeple like you, harstem, uthermal, pig, winter and even the lagtv guys are still so active! Really keeps it alive and I'm all here for it! Keep it up!
Thank you. Really all these kind comments I get from people that enjoy my content make me keep going.
well deserved!
I'm subscribed for some years now. I started watching SC2 with WinterStarcraft, then Harstem, then you. I especially like it when you're playing against Harstem.
Gotta beat his terran with Cannon rush once, I am thirsty for blood.
lol, the drawing! love it. and agree with many others, probably had to go right cause left was blocked by probes. I usually watch beginning to end, either while im eating lunch or before bed. Thanks for your content!
Thanks for watching!
i'm new, started watching a few days ago, although i dislike playing against cannon rushers, i do enjoy your content, good energy, stay kind friend
Welcome to my channel! I am glad new people are visiting my content and stay a while longer.
I think your probe was blocked from pylon-walking by the probes on the other side
edit: clicked cause bored at work, sshhhh don't tell the boss. Have been subscribed for nearly a year - can't remember which vids initially made me subscribe but your upbeat attitude is a big part of why I enjoy watching
Hello Boss, this guy is watching really important work stuff on youtube, please give him a raise.
Nice recovery on the last game! I'm glad you played it out. You were thinking about GGing when the cannonrush failed. But good to see you play it out. Thankyou.
Never give up!
Daily Cannon rush episodes is my jam :) oglądam od kiedy pamiętam:)
No i ogladamy dalej!
Perhaps the probe didn't go the way you wanted because the other side of those pylons were being attacked covering all surface area of them, maybe test the position with out the probes attacking. Let us know if you do and how it works out(or anyone that sees this)
I watch your videos because I really like how you narrate your decision making. It's similar to the reason I like watching uthermal. I also enjoy how hard you try even when it seems like a position is unwinnable.
I'm gonna sound a bit arrogant here but I think I do a good job at narrating my thoughts throughout the game to make sure viewers understand what is going on and what I am planning on doing.
i used to watch ur sc2 vidz all the time to gain strats, the cannon rush is my favorite because its so fast. i havnt seen any of ur vidz in like a year but because ive been watchin 'cheese or fail' (maximus black) ur vid was added to a list of vidz i may be interested in watching.
Welcome back!
Toss player: "GLHF" Mana: " You've been hit by a smooth cannon rush".. 😆
i think this is my favorite canon rush episode, the super decisive games are awesome
Congratz on the 200th CR win!
Thank you for your content Mana, always a breath of fresh air. Congrats on your latest performances. Loved your games against Serral and Maximuspaximus.
Thanks a lot!
I just started watching last week. I just like seeing good players play. I don’t play sc2 at all but it’s fun to watch, just like Uthermal
I think there are more people who watch StarCraft 2 rather than play. Both is fine!
I'm not really a fan of the "theme" only build challenge videos, but I am a sucker for some good cannon rushes. So I'm all here for it.
Amazing cannon rushes, as always 💪🏻🗿😎
I am a new viewer, as I said in another comment I first discovered you through the tournament vs Clem and thought you were an awesome Protoss player so I wanted to check you out. I have been cannon rushing since Wings of Liberty so I absolutely love to see this strategy in high MMR to improve my own methods. Anyways, love the videos, keep them coming.
P.S. when you go PvT and use fast tempests try getting the fleet beacon upgrade tectonics disruptor. It’s pretty cheap and quick and it’s SO much damage vs structures
Awesome, welcome to my channel! I'd love to have enough money for the tempest upgrade and +1 but I gotta have my priorities right :D
@ agreed, you are an amazing player so I trust your judgement, but if you ever find the opportunity to squeeze it in there is a massive buff to your siege. Looking forward to more of those tempest contains!
Bro’s been on fire lately
If printf is the indie (anti-)hero of cannon rush, Mana’s the public ambassador of the filthy art
lol printf and boaanan the real masters of Cannon Rush, I am the PR version of it.
Congratulations to the 200th Cannon Rush win! Time for the next 200 wins.
Gonna be cannon rushing till I am 80 years old
Uthermal's team games have been bringing viewers back to sc2 stuff
only started watching u in the last few months, i was looking for cannonrushing videos and i found you by accident, remember you from the old days and i wanted to expand my SC2 channel roster
Awesome, glad you continue watching!
POG another MaNa video, streak it up king MaNa!
Let's gooooo!
I also watch you, Uthermal, and harstem. The big three of entertainment StarCraft 👍
Harstem and uThermal are great!
I watch every day before sleeping. But you stopped. So I went to Uthermal. Now I came back
Welcome back!
4:02 Pro was scared, he hid behing a cannoon, perfectly rational behavior.
I'm a simple man, I see cannon rush I click. You were probably recommended to me because I watch harstem's videos.
It's refreshing watching Greg develop his craft.
Maybe the probes attacking the pylons in game 2 made the path slightly longer than the way it. went.
Love these quick games
Action starts and stops right away
I decided to click on your video because I used to watch you like over a decade ago when you were a pro. Havent played or watched SC2 in over a decade. recently started watching Harstem videos and so you got recommended in my youtube
New Episode. Epic how often you have been uploading rescently. Apreciated
I've been uploading everyday for almost 2 years I want to say, only took a longer break in the past few months to fix some of my personal stuff :D
First time viewer, most of the time i get Harstem videos. Watched Lowko in the past as well. When I see cannon rush I click ghehe
A man of great taste! Hope you'll keep watching my vids, enjoy!
i am watching you more than year, everyday like a tradition )
What do you have prepared for our anniversary?
@@manaesports I am just asking God to give me more Heaven's Mana and usually TH-cam shows me notification about your new video after that.
A golden Crator deserves golden Fans!!
Long time subscribe to your channel, so watch all videos you reliese. I like your gameplay style, your ideas, your narration. You and Thermi are my besty in SC2 World.
Amazing, I really appreciate it!
I watch you on my TV man. Big ass screen cannons look amazing 😂 No idea how someone may see anything on mobile device. I watch full episode no skipping ever. I used to watch Harstem 24/7 until he started fooling with Terran race. Such a downfall. I watch him now only when in his true Protoss form. Until then you're my first choice for 3-4 videos on a roll 👍
Fantastic, the golden viewer indeed!
5:23 - shocking behind-the-scenes footage from the balance council.
New Viewer was watching one of your matches on Winter Starcraft and he pointed out your page so checking it out
Awesome, welcome to the channel! I have multiple playlists so make sure to check them out!
Hej Mana, od niedawna wróciłem do SC2 (20 lat temu całkiem dobrze radziłem sobie zergiem w BroodWar). Teraz gram Tossem i inspirujesz mnie do cannon rushy 😂
I dobrze, wiecej cannon rushy na ladderze. Niech cierpia!
been watching for a few days. Watching solely for cannon rushes
A man of good taste I see
Go MANA, go!
Oh damn the first game was hype. Didn't expect all 3 of those pylons to fall
Every small detail mattered in that short game
Hey thanks for cannon rushing videos
Do will have a 500 cannon rush, or 100 episodes celebration?
I certainly hope so
Returning viewer. I watched a few of you x to GM series but don't like them anymore as it just feels like smurfing. However, I LOVE these cannon rush in GM videos. These are what I watch for you. Also, once the game goes from cannon rush to macro, I usually skip to the next game
Good run i like it😊
daily cannonrush lets go!!!
Watch a few of other sc2 creators but just recently seeing your videos come up as recommended or in my feed.
Harstem has been doing some team games lately, would be entertaining to watch you guys 2v2 together 😅
Edit: Subbed!
Awesome, welcome to the channel! I am not much a fun of team games, but doing cannon rush in 2v2 sounds interesting...
@@manaesports thats what he’s doing, dual cannon rush to GM?
I think the probe went right because he had a full wall of probes, but even without, i think the right is the shorter path.
excellent as usual
SC2 is the new chess, i'd like all starting bases to have static defense though, deter so much cheese, instead require smart sized armies
oh man I live the dream watching you!!!
I was watching for few months, I think you can remember me, because I was actively commenting. Then I had aboout half year break and I'm back just since the previous episode which appeared on my YT wall. My favorite series was Sentries/Sentries+Tempest/Cannon Rushes. Btw. have you tried to rush carrier instead of tempest against terran? You can abuse recent attack priorities change, by sending 1 carrier closer to opponents units, so marines auto agro carrier instead of interceptors.
Carrier is much worse because it's more expensive and builds longer and needs time to finish interceptors. Also marines can easily out DPS the 1-2 carrier that I can build first not to mention cyclone or vikings to add to the DPS. It's just not good.
Golden, yes! ❤
The highest order in here!
What's new about your cannon rush? just asking :) been watching your prev cannon rush and it was funny :D Im also watching uthermal and harstem
The new mappool is pretty good for it!
@@manaesports Nice! cool 😎
First time watching you, but surely Not the last time. Didnt know you were Even Streaming. Love your emotions weile streaming. It is Better than harstems Version. Even though i Like his content too.
Yes! I love when new viewers decide to check out my channel, welcome. Harstem is awesome too, can always watch both!
I’m here for the cannon rushes
Nie no Polaka rodaka to się ogląda od zawsze
POLSKA GUROM
I watch because it feels like you are having a heart attack every game
I do, then I just overcharge it and queue next ranked match.
i am a golden viewer
excuse my ignorance but arent his probes blocking the squeeze gap?
i wonder if fake cannon rush into quick nexus with cannon and shield battery could be a fun mindgame for a quick lead
Certainly possible, but not optimal :D
The same people that "skip" parts of the video (aka me) are the same people that also watch the entire video. MANY times I just kick back relax and watch but if I'm up right and have a mouse in my hand there are also times where I will fast forward the first minute of a match to get to the action.
with a drawing like that 5:24, blizzard will have to refund your free cd key for sure ;)
Hey I bought my StarCraft, wasn't free!
I enjoyed a lot 👋👋
Happy to hear that!
I almost always watch start to finish. Sometimes I skip over transitions where everyone is regrouping but usually the commentary keeps me interested anyway.
Awesome! I try to stay informative all video to not bore, but it's not easy :D
golden viewer ftw
hello, i am one of those people who skip through parts of videos. Sorry! lol. I do it for ALL starcraft videos, don't take it personally! I like certain parts of the game more than others.
To make up for it, I rewatch parts of the cannon rush many times because I enjoy that first moment when the cannon finishes building and starts killing probes!
@@macphearsome no worries! Let everyone watch the video however they like :D
LETS Go!
Winterstarcraft mentioned you so I searched you out.
I saw that today. Hope you'll enjoy your stay here
Greetings to my friend algo and his rythm
I wish they were my friends
Why I click on your videos: I finished all the uThermal 2v2/3v3's and this is most certainly the next best thing.
Why I haven't clicked until now: Your thumbnails look like your target audience is ~20 years younger than me, I was very pleasantly surprised when you didn't act like PiG.
Glad you decided to give it a try despite wrong feeling, and for the compliment!
@@manaesports thanks for the awesome cannon rushing content! I've been shredding through the backlog, reminds me of the legendary Printf
BTW this forty guy is probably a maphacker. I had a really sus game against him, where he did not probe scout and went straight for my proxy stargate.
I've been watching you only for a week or two as of now, but watched over 100 videos (you've been a mainstay on my second monitor), specially the canon rush and cheese videos (honestly can't stand normal sc 2 play ever since the 12 worker change, completely killed the game for me - but canon rushes and crazy builds are still fun)
That's a crazy watch streak haha, I am glad you found something you enjoy!
Impressionant
Oh I'm new member, I think u should play with harstem
Welcome to the channel!
I'm the golden viewer. Yay. 😊
I'm a golden viewer!
The highest order on my channel
I've been watching since I first found out about your channel. I feel like u were getting 300 views per video or something. I'm guessing maybe like 2 years or so?
I remember!
I watch the video at a faster speed. Does that negatively impact the viewership???
I have no idea but I see no reason why it would. Just enjoy in any way you enjoy it!
@@manaesports I do, I have been watching you for a few years now. : )
Spoiler cover…
@18:43 You incremented the win counter, but not the GG counter. I know that the player didn’t type GG but the player wasn’t there. Is that really fair?
A win is a win!
@ You get MMR so there is no doubt, a win is a win.
if a video says cannon rush... i click it.
I'm not quite a 'Golden Viewer' , I must confess: I 'L'-Skip twice at the start of each match. Normally I reserve 'L' Skips for obnoxious uploaders who like to try to sneak ads into the middle of their vids. But for you...I know that you build a pylon and then build a forge. I know what that looks like, so I don't need to see it. So I skip to the good bit!
