    I feel so honored to be the first comment.All of my hard work and dedication has paid off. Being the first comment has been a dream of mine for many years, and I would like to thank those who have helped me along the way. First and foremost I would like to thank god for giving me this opportunity. Next I would like to thank my parents. I want to thank my friend Peter Griffin for being really skinny and always there for me. I would also like to thank my pet tadpole for surviving against all odds for over a week. Next I would like to thank the squirrel that lives in my backyard for climbing trees because that gives me inspiration that I need to get through the day. This is a special moment in my life and I would like to thank any of my unmentioned friends and family that have helped me along the way. This moment will be a moment that I will never forget. I just remembered a few other people I would like to thank; youtube, the fish I caught in the third grade, my light in my room because I wouldn’t be able to see the keyboard without it, the internet for letting me go on youtube, my house because without it I would be homeless, and last but not least I would like to thank all the people out there that actually took time out of their day to read this. I cannot stress how much of a big deal to me this is. I have been trying to get this award from you for years, but that has not been possible until this amazing day. Hopefully my good luck will continue, but this is undoubtedly a rare occasion. If you asked me how I did this, I would say, you can achieve anything u set your mind on. To all the kids out there reading this, I would like to tell them to follow their dreams. Being the first comment is truly amazing, thank you everyone

    Well, I think Scarlet has made her point: Zerg air is broken, but everybody - besides Blizzard - already knew that. Perhaps Scarlet felt it was necessary to provide Blizzard with some direct evidence.
    What Zerg needs is an upgrade to the mutalisk that stops the bounce of their glave so that instead of dealing 9, 8, and then 7, it just deals 24 damage to one target. Or give Zerg a speed upgrade for the mutalisks.

    Crazy last game, didn't expect a base race at all, surprised Scarlett tried for one. I remember back in the day, mutas were NUTS. I went gold league easily simply rushing mutas, it threw people off so much. I am a wood league player, but mutas in large groups with their bounces mowed things down entirely too well

      @Ranmyakki 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I can't say I'm too familiar with it myself but I can give a basic description.
      Lacrosse it 2 teams running around with sticks that have nets, and passing the ball from the nets to eachother.
      Otherwise roughly the same and just as violent in Canada at least XD
      (Someone can correct me if I'm wrong of course)
      EDIT: Just looked it up, they're different sports that share a lot of similarities.

    • @OptimusWombat
      @OptimusWombat 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Field hockey is a different sport. It's sort of similar to ice hockey, but the main difference is that it's played on grass. Also, the sticks are shaped a bit differently, and also used slightly differently. It's played with a round ball, not with a puck. And players wear a lot less padding.
      Lacrosse is completely different. The sticks don't have blades, they have nets to catch the ball with.
      Lacrosse is officially (as declared in law) the national summer sport of Canada. Ice hockey is the national winter sport of Canada, but definitely first in Canadians' hearts

    Protoss seems more versatile in defence and attack than I can remember. Maybe Scarlett could have gone for different kinds of queen march (Seoul stroll, German taxi, Warsaw(?) subway) in all the games, but Astrea might have had a counter. It's not just Showtime who can defend everything and then counterattack with overwhelming force.

    I dont play I only watch them play through casters, so take this with a grain of salt. I understand oricles have limited energy to attack with, but once the zerg over commit with queens and spores why dont they start killing hte free lings before zerg is able to push? it's still minerals and larva you're taking from them, but i always see them try to force in the oracles just do do nothing in the early game or die in matches like these. I'm not saying they are wrong, it's just something I'm failing to understand.

    38:19 was holding my breath for the mutas to just charge in and flatten that base...woulda been fun to watch
    also am trying to understand the strategic thinking -
    6 bases, gas-intensive mutas, a slow protoss ground army -
    would a couple of spine crawlers for base defense not have worked?
    or did the mutas simply take too much APM to afford the split attention?

    • @userasdf
      @userasdf 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Spines would have helped but the main thing is that Scarlett didn't do enough damage with her mutas before phoenixes were out. You basically have to end the game with mutas by either destroying their economy while you have a bank to remax on another unit or just picking off their army so they never form a death ball. Scarlett was spending all her money replacing her mutas she couldn't get enough economy up.

    • @333kenshin
      @333kenshin 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@userasdf interesting - lowko mentions at 39:04 that in the old days muta players would "build a spine crawler forest back home so protoss couldn't really engage", which I'm surprised 6 bases wasn't sufficient to support. Even if it only slowed down but didn't entirely stop Protoss aggression, one would think that would suffice to win a base race
      oh wait, I guess despite the number of bases, her actual worker count never exceeded her opponent's by much. that explains it

      @TrueThanny 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's not actually true. Due to two of the three pigments being on the X chromosome (which females have two copies of), females are far less likely to be colorblind, and can rarely have mutated pigment genes making them tetrachromatic rather than trichromatic. But a normal female does not perceive colors better than a normal male.
