I am Fenix, wrote a comment somewhere in the endless list of comments with a bit of context. Feel free to pin if you want. Thanks for the cast, was awesome.
Boran is not a liar. He is not a deceiver. If he is going to cheese his opponent, he doesn't want to shamefully hide his intentions, he will honourably put his structures right in his opponent's face. What an honest and honourable guy.
So, we had the famous 7 minute 0/0 Roach/Ravagar push get counteracted by the famous failed-planetary-into-proxy-mining rush. Because of course we did.
That second game was pure gold. When I saw the planetary at the main I thought that made no sense. Of course it then got dozens of kills. By the way, that "don't cringe" challenge is just not possible. Not with the first game and certainly not with that second game, I loved it!
Man, that Protoss win in the second game was amazing. Seriously who else could even be called the winner, Protoss just looks better by not being anywhere near that train wreck. Speaking of which my spine can not be found anywhere near my twisted corpse. I cringed myself to death when my spine leapt out the top of my skull and ran for competence and freedom which mine eyes were not providing.
Hey Lowko, 29:54 Yes I am Fenix, yes I am really smiling like crazy. It's so fun to see you cast a game of mine. Here is little bit of context: when it's late and I don't want to play competitively, I switch server and play like really bad for fun. It creates some funny situations sometimes like the one here where I got more than 100 kills on PF total. I did not expect the result of this game, the Zerg just gave up trying lol. Thanks for casting this was an awesome moment !
6:00 i think if that were to be a thing, it would have to be a temporary one-building power, since it shoots a beam already it could laser power it like a budget warp prism. it would only power one structure at a time, while rendering the void ray either useless until it stops, or make it like a flying photon cannon where it can protect itself but it has less damage and is more vulnerable. cool idea for me to overthink!
Game design concept: Void rays should have the ability to attack it's own structures and power them up if are outside the pylon area or chronobost them if they are already powered. The structure still takes damage from the voidray.
This is exactly how void rays used to be. Play the campaign and you’ll see. It was very popular for players to build pylons near the opponents base for the void rays to charge up on.
Fenix: I can still... how do you terrans say it? 'Throw down with the best of 'em'! [Actual match of 'Throwing down'] Fenix: How do I cannon rush? Raynor: You don't cannon rush as terrans, you proxy barracks or planetary rush. Fenix: How do you planetary rush? Raynor: [sigh] You build a proxy command centre near the enemy base. Fenix: It says I need an engineering bay. Okay, I'm building the planetary fortress. Raynor: Did you lift it off to place it in a blocking position where the planetary's cannons can harass the opponent? Fenix: ...how do you 'lift off'?
Oh man i really made it to 33:50 without cringing but in the last minute Pinger got me good. Although it was more of a really wide grin :D these are brilliant
I did this yesterday (have had SC2 simce it came out) and unintentionally would have done Lowko proud. Both T v T and both ran circles around me while I tried to macro and panicked horribly.
OMG thank you soo mutch XD It was one of my worst matches ever, and one of my first matches as well! XD im relatively new here, but i really like this game!
Okay, I made it to 3:47. Was fine with the strats up until the protoss player started up a stargate while a bunker was being placed in his main with 2 proxy rax production in his face. Definitely a unique decision to be made there.
Best part of the second game is that Pinger KNEW FROM THE START that his opponent had a second base somewhere out on the map, since he knows he never killed it, and even scouted it at almost full health before he began throwing his armies into the main base meat grinder! But he just forgot about it!
3:30 Sorry Lowko I failed, as a protoss player, I would not attack the SCV just for the bunker construction although there's 2 marines attacking at you
Cringed in the first round at 3:09 with the poor (nonexistant) micro of the marines. Terran Pride in the second. Planetary Fortresses players are just so precious.
The cringe actually started 1 second into the show when instead of opening with a “Helloooooo evvvverrrrry onnnne” we got an ad 😜 Also, wow that last game was SO painful to watch! I was yelling “Noooo” right along with you, slapping my forehead, shielding my eyes, and just generally trying to distract from or avoid the torment. Anyway, hilarious stuff. One of your best vids in months 😆😂🤣😭
Pylons are Xelnaga crystals of all sizes, so i guess that one in void ray is not powerful enough to do warpins, but it just making laser from void ray being a lot stronger than just from electrical energy.
Seen a lot of your bronze league hero vids. I’ll be honest it was ok, until the end. The hydra meat grinder got me. I blame you as the caster for my loss 😂
like 0:10 seconds in when there was no SCVs being made xDDD 2nd game: cringed at the 25 seconds of inactivity at the start since the players had to boot up their mental HDD-drives to be able to play, and 19:55 I have never seen such polite avoidance by the zerglings from harming the marines D: 3rd edit 34:00: Atleast the zerg now knows that planetary does splash-damage lowPalm
God, I love viewer games. I sent my first one a coulle of days ago. He is right about the heart beat. My APM might of been in the double digits, but my heart was racing. Hand shaking and everything.
I know Fenix, it's a friend frome the begenning of SC2. He played more on America server, his real level is around platinium-diamond. But, he likes make troll strategies. :3 GG my boy
I’ve played against Fenix before if it’s on NA. Not sure what ranking in this game since it’s unranked. If it’s the same Fenix, they’re diamond 2 or 3.
4:40 next cringe, protoss player sees he's being rushed and does not build anything to counter it. Then when getting attacked does not use a few gathers to do extra damage since the other dude CLEARLY doesn't want to kite at all. Yup, this is definitely some low ranked crap. . .
I don´t know How matchmaking in this game works.. I just started playing, I have played like 20 games. I am silver 2 and yet, every game I play against gold/plat or aven diamond players with hundreds and few aven thousands ranked games played. Is there something I can do to play against players with my rank?

We definitely need more people like him :)
@@yomama8935 :)
Fights like a true warrior.
The second game was just a campaign mission where you defend against the Zerg and Fenix beat it
That little pylon on the void ray cannot power buildings. They are too small. However you can charge your phone on them.
Okay, I survived the first game, but the second one got me. Those planetaries were worth every single mineral spent on them.
I played that 2nd game and yeah, that was sooooo funny lol. Never expected that they would get 100+ kills lol
So, we had the famous 7 minute 0/0 Roach/Ravagar push get counteracted by the famous failed-planetary-into-proxy-mining rush.
Because of course we did.
23:20 In the meantime, in the bottom-left hand corner, playing with the red terran pieces, we have none other than Fenix
Ah yes, the grand “Send in another Gorgon!” strategy
Oh man... I'm not even a Terran player primarily, but each battlecruiser that went down in game one was like a stab to the heart.
I haven’t laughed like that in a while on the end of the Second game. 😂
I played it as Fenix. Yes that was crazy funny for me too, which is why I sent it to Lowko lol
Omg, I'm still laughing so hard and the video has been over for at least a minute....
@@stalwart56k I'm happy to have shared a very fun game and make people laught :P
Boran and Pinger: did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?
That second game was pure gold. When I saw the planetary at the main I thought that made no sense. Of course it then got dozens of kills. By the way, that "don't cringe" challenge is just not possible. Not with the first game and certainly not with that second game, I loved it!
Man, that Protoss win in the second game was amazing.
Seriously who else could even be called the winner, Protoss just looks better by not being anywhere near that train wreck.
Speaking of which my spine can not be found anywhere near my twisted corpse. I cringed myself to death when my spine leapt out the top of my skull and ran for competence and freedom which mine eyes were not providing.
Ah yes, my favourite kind of Lowko video!
That second Terran game is the most turtle Terran shit I've ever seen, I'm almost in awe
oh my god i was laughing so hard at the end of that second game. He just kept walking his units through the meat grinder!
He was the WOL Zerg-AI.
That was funny to play. I was the terran and I laughted alot lol
Hey Lowko, 29:54 Yes I am Fenix, yes I am really smiling like crazy. It's so fun to see you cast a game of mine.

Plays bad on purpose huh? 🤔 likely storey.
Thanks for the game! Fin to see PF plays lol
@@jjjarod1 Yeah, that's what happen when you just don't care and start doing absurd strategies for fun. xD
Fenix actually made a win condition out of playing tower defence like a campaign mission.
Yeah lol I killed armies after armies without ever attacking. I was Fenix.
@@ScBroodSc2 Hello there :P
@@MaitreEtherion Hello there :D
5:41 I think that we should let lowko decide how to balance sc2, he would probably do a better job than Microsoft :)
1:15 Challenge failed. I started cringing when terran put down the first bunker
not even mad that you have a sponsor just glad that the channel got big enough to get sponsored
This the kind of ally I get when I play 4v4
6:00 i think if that were to be a thing, it would have to be a temporary one-building power, since it shoots a beam already it could laser power it like a budget warp prism. it would only power one structure at a time, while rendering the void ray either useless until it stops, or make it like a flying photon cannon where it can protect itself but it has less damage and is more vulnerable. cool idea for me to overthink!

The structure still takes damage from the voidray.
sort of like the tesla troopers in red alert 2 that can super power the coils for extra distance and damage
You know that was a thing removed right?
This is exactly how void rays used to be. Play the campaign and you’ll see. It was very popular for players to build pylons near the opponents base for the void rays to charge up on.
I held out a long time, I really tried, Lowko... But when the planetary got it's 72nd kill, I just couldn't prevent the cringe from ravaging my mind.
16:03 zerg supply depots really flying man XD
As a Terran player I lost it after the Terran in the first game lost his third BC to the exact same way he lost his first and second BCs
Fenix: I can still... how do you terrans say it? 'Throw down with the best of 'em'!
[Actual match of 'Throwing down']
Fenix: How do I cannon rush?
Raynor: You don't cannon rush as terrans, you proxy barracks or planetary rush.
Fenix: How do you planetary rush?
Raynor: [sigh] You build a proxy command centre near the enemy base.
Fenix: It says I need an engineering bay. Okay, I'm building the planetary fortress.
Raynor: Did you lift it off to place it in a blocking position where the planetary's cannons can harass the opponent?
Fenix: ...how do you 'lift off'?
Lowko, i congratulate you for your first sponsor
Made it to 11:47 when I saw the Zealot just give up on chewing apart all of those undefended SCVs
genuinely loved the second game. absolutely unpredictable but very interesting
Your casting is amazing xD That was hilarious, was sitting here laughing till my stomach hurt.
Oh man i really made it to 33:50 without cringing but in the last minute Pinger got me good. Although it was more of a really wide grin :D these are brilliant
makes me want to play ranked just to send replays to lowko. I've never played ranked.
I did this yesterday (have had SC2 simce it came out) and unintentionally would have done Lowko proud.
Both T v T and both ran circles around me while I tried to macro and panicked horribly.
the SCV to the Cleaning-Bot: Hey I got a job for you. Wanna become a Mule?
Love watching these heroes with 15 AMP and 185 heart rate. My eyes and my heart hurt on the second game no cap.🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is?
Pinger is definitly going on reddit/forum/whatever saying; "terran op"
OMG thank you soo mutch XD
It was one of my worst matches ever, and one of my first matches as well! XD im relatively new here, but i really like this game!
Hahaha nice work! Thanks for sharing.
28:08 Lowko is so cringed out he starts giving "advice" and I died of laughter hahaha
28:00
I've been shouting at this zerg player, this entire time, to build flying units LOL
Same. Like, 6 brood lords and Terran would be toast. They certainly had the bank for it.
don't forget sunshine and rain hahaha
This is gold, please make more of these videos!
Could be misremembering, but I believe the Void Rays have that crystal like Warp Prisms because they used to be called Void Prisms in development/beta
Surprised Lowko didn't put together the "prism"atic alignment ability.
if you watch the OG unit intro video its actuall called Warp Ray
Okay, I made it to 3:47. Was fine with the strats up until the protoss player started up a stargate while a bunker was being placed in his main with 2 proxy rax production in his face. Definitely a unique decision to be made there.
Best part of the second game is that Pinger KNEW FROM THE START that his opponent had a second base somewhere out on the map, since he knows he never killed it, and even scouted it at almost full health before he began throwing his armies into the main base meat grinder! But he just forgot about it!
Look closely at 8:50 there are now two roombas. So you can imagine what the SCV did there :D
34:00 Let the voice of Lowko take you higher. Peak ASMR
That third jump into the Protoss base got me...
Forget Lowko's pro league SC2 commentaries. This is where it's at!!!
Honestly i did not expect a 4k bank zerg to tap out i lauged so hard and absolutely loved it
11.21...
The battle cruiser 'tactical' jump an vs subsequent death got me
3:30 Sorry Lowko I failed, as a protoss player, I would not attack the SCV just for the bunker construction although there's 2 marines attacking at you
Cringed in the first round at 3:09 with the poor (nonexistant) micro of the marines. Terran Pride in the second. Planetary Fortresses players are just so precious.
Silver vs silver: already a waste of time. Lowko showing it and kinda making fun of it: NOT a waste of time anymore
Lowko don´t blasphame, we all already looked voidrays for years!
This is too much to watch 😂😂 “fOrTy fouR kills FORty foUr!!” lmao
I love how Pinger didnt even think of using mutalisks xD and keeps on using ground army
I lost as soon as red put his first depot down haha
With the voidray you can warp in units in the air. It makes so much sense!
The cringe actually started 1 second into the show when instead of opening with a “Helloooooo evvvverrrrry onnnne” we got an ad 😜
Also, wow that last game was SO painful to watch! I was yelling “Noooo” right along with you, slapping my forehead, shielding my eyes, and just generally trying to distract from or avoid the torment.
Anyway, hilarious stuff. One of your best vids in months 😆😂🤣😭
HE GETS THE SPONSERSSSS WOOOO
an ad? thats so cool seeing how you have grown :)
Seems like Fenix has a good understanding of what is enough to beat this particular oponent. Sun Tzu would be proud!
Fenix: "It just works."
i haven't cringed the entire time because i am as bad as the people in the video
Pylons are Xelnaga crystals of all sizes, so i guess that one in void ray is not powerful enough to do warpins, but it just making laser from void ray being a lot stronger than just from electrical energy.
Did Pinger try to use the viper as an attack unit against that first medivac? does he know what the units do, or was this one of his first ever games?
Amazing zerg unit cost so little… even though zerg keep throwing unit he still has 4x more mineral
Seen a lot of your bronze league hero vids. I’ll be honest it was ok, until the end. The hydra meat grinder got me. I blame you as the caster for my loss 😂
Trying to confuse the opponent by having a Protoss nickname but being Terran.....hey, a similar strategy worked for Reynor!
I failed each time I saw no worker production at 0:01
R.I.P.
I made it to game 2 when the roach revenger clumped up to the planetary n tank. Then I cringed very hard
I love these videos so much. Please keep 'em coming!
6:10 Was the staring into the void joke intentional or just happened unnoticed?
Lowko describes a warpprism
While talking about a voidray skin😄
AMAZING planetary fortress strategy from Fenix
like 0:10 seconds in when there was no SCVs being made xDDD
2nd game: cringed at the 25 seconds of inactivity at the start since the players had to boot up their mental HDD-drives to be able to play, and 19:55 I have never seen such polite avoidance by the zerglings from harming the marines D:
3rd edit 34:00: Atleast the zerg now knows that planetary does splash-damage lowPalm
I wasn't cringing since I am even worse than they are...
Lowko : cheering for himself doing the math for 2 BCs right - but forgetting completely about the costs of the 2nd Starport. LOL @10:30
Watching these games reminds me that the ladder is a big place with a very very wide variety of skill lol
God, I love viewer games. I sent my first one a coulle of days ago.
He is right about the heart beat. My APM might of been in the double digits, but my heart was racing. Hand shaking and everything.
I'm at 14:49 and haven't cringed. I just feel hollow and cold watching this
6:00
Congrats on showing me this game lowko, I want to die now. Thanks.
Boran asserting his dominance with his proxy
Hey, Lowko has a sponsor!
Imagine void ray proxies with them powering their own shield batteries..
I know Fenix, it's a friend frome the begenning of SC2. He played more on America server, his real level is around platinium-diamond. But, he likes make troll strategies. :3 GG my boy
In that second game, I was thinking to myself " oh it would be funny if the terran ended up winning." it was a joke i didn't expect it to be real...
I’ve played against Fenix before if it’s on NA. Not sure what ranking in this game since it’s unranked. If it’s the same Fenix, they’re diamond 2 or 3.
I didn't cringe, because I don't know how to play either.
you learned to proxy barracks cheese , what did it cost?
ladder players: macro
I think the void ray has a void pylon on the nose to channel void energy... void
I'm not cringed: I'm pleased.
Thanks a lot, Mr. Lowko!
4:40 next cringe, protoss player sees he's being rushed and does not build anything to counter it. Then when getting attacked does not use a few gathers to do extra damage since the other dude CLEARLY doesn't want to kite at all. Yup, this is definitely some low ranked crap. . .
Literally rolling laughing at 9:56

if only all those hydras became lurker...if only that !!!
That planetary is painful....
My hand was on my forehead for most od the second game. That hurt. I loved it.
