Props to Totoro for taking on this absolute madman twice! If Thermy is spreading creep tumors automatically without thinking about it, then his transformation to Infested Thermy is nearly complete :D
Um...imagine with the deepfakeyfacemappything, Thermie playing with a Zeratul 'mask'...between that and the voice-changer thing, he would surely receive more minerals!
Love that the editing is increasing. I never miss it because Marc is so good on his own, but I do love to see it. Hopefully one day we will be getting slow-mo instant replays of incredible moves like that zergling split at 5:28 (:
37:10 your supposed to take a big line of drones like 16-24+ supply in drones build all spore/spine crawlers can't remember which. Then build a bunch of army to fill up the loss in supply. Once 200/200 is refilled cancel the spore/spine crawlers giving you 220+ supply. Allowing you to take massive fights like that while still mining.
I've already watched this 53 times and this is the best proxy hatch game yet. truly a uThermal moment. I can safely confirm that this video is a classic
@@XRyanK it's an MMA meme making fun of an analyst named Luke Thomas who rewatched a fight 49 times "I watched Volk-Max 2 *49* times. Yes, 49. What I took away was not a scoring controversy, but that Max & Alex are grand masters of their craft. This is MMA's highest level & I feel like the story is being lost."
@16:33 he's talking about hoping his overlords didn't miss the drop, as the banshee flies through his overlord vision and he doesn't see it xD feels bad when that happens
Thank you for content and positive mindset. In late games you might attack your creeptumors with broods and then use broodlings to engage,constantly spaming new ones at back line, while your army in safe position. Cheers. Merry Christmas!
As a gold zerg, I can confidently say that they solution to the supply problem with late game BLs is to put down 20 spores, morph an extra 10 BLs and cancel the spores for 220/200 supply. Hax. :D
At the late game you should do this: 1) get 100000 larvas, a lot of minerals and gas 2) lose all your army in the great fight 3) rebuild your army up to 200 in a 1 second, zerg can do it 4) destroy the opponent P.S. english is not my native language, sorry for misspeling
Lategame units like broodlords and ultras take a minute to get, so you will lose about 2 bases in the process. So the opponent then retreating and remaxing puts you in a really bad position. Only unit compositions that are heavy on ling/bane or roaches can remax fast enough.
@@henningbreede6428 you don't need broodlords or ultra to desrtoy the low ammount of units. Your opponent also will lose a bunch of forses, if you fight in the good position. Zerg rebuild way faster, than terran or protos, so you can make a lot of lings or roaches and kill an enemy at the second push while he has no units
I haven’t played in years, but back in the day I played random and when I got Zerg, mutas to broodlords with 6ish corrupters was always my goal. If the opponent went air, I’d get more corrupters and less BLs. Although, using vipers to yank a carrier into a mess of corrupters or mutas sounds like a wicked idea.
Getting air attack upgrades for mass brood lord is an interesting move, since the broodlings scale off melee upgrades. Love the challenge info card at the start though.
man i love your content. had i not messed up m hands in my younger years... and stayed focus on competitive gaming i could be where you guys are today.... youtube, twitch with partnership, sponsorships; but sadly, when i was at my peak gaming, "esports" wasn't a term and tournaments weren't a thing. LAN was a thing but since i live in a small city almost town size, and no one games here; just drugs and gang bangin... i coulda goneto WCG Germany in 05 however my family said "there's no future in gaming, you're wasting your time, you need a job, etc etc etc." now look... one of the higher paying jobs in the world with entire highschools AND colleges AND 'gamer houses' around the world... i'm so depressed
I don't know what's more hilarious, if the fact that I can't even understand the 5:26 splits at 0.5x speed, or his absolute drunk voice at 0.5x speed lol
Recommendation - gotta transition from zerglings a little faster. Sometimes you don't transition at all and it costs you the match. In the first match, you could have went baneling if you wanted to stick with a ground based army
You should be bringing a bunch of queens for the transfuses on your broodlords and you can free your supply by making a spore forest in your frontline siege. GG
As someone who is color blind, I really appreciate the CB mode for mirror matchups. I usually skip any mirror matches as I just can't follow fights and just get frustrated trying.
@@scottb4087 SAME his ZvZ is completely nuts for me as i can't understand which zerglings belong to whom, too fast & too colour blind BUT this makes videos even more chaotic so i DO NOT MARC TO ADJUST COLOURS
One of the other Dutch youtubers said you guys celebrate Christmas on 25 and 26. If so, hope you have a great next couple of days and we'll see you back soon!
I have an idea for a new challenge. You are not allowed to leave your base until your opponent attacks you. Let’s say you can take your natural but other than that you aren’t allowed to scout or move units across the map. Can do any race/build but can’t move out until you’re attacked.
Is it possible to have queens and hatcheries in one control group and inject larvaes all at one just clicking on hatchery miniatures? Closest queen would be chosen for each one. Does it work? Plus for the split brain challenge - you pick bronze players and you tell him what to do and he are going as high as he can, or on the opposite - you do all the mechanics, but he tells you what to do. So you are the sergeant and he is the general.
I have a question, if I may. At 7:50, there's a mention of "no upgrades yet...", and I've noticed in previous videos that it has been said as well. How does one determine the upgrades that the opponent has? Is this something that just comes with experience (like in this case hoq quickly a ling dies to the marines), or is there some visual hint that I don't see or so... (I'm still fairly new to the game, and curious to learn more about things :) )?
@@PhuVinh030609 Oh, wow, I had to pause the video and look for that moment where you see the opponent's marine for a fraction of a second, but I was now able to see it. Thank you for your answer, it was really helpful :)
The build I keep seeing on ladder is first a random drone comes to main to "scout" and make a proxy hatch in the far corner. While this is happening, a second drone comes to make a second proxy in my nat. Playing against this is super infuriating cause you never know is it just for creep-blocking everything on my side or is it committed queen-snipe-ravager bust. I really wish that one guy who keeps doing it to me would stop.
I thought you could have won the game earlier. The way you positioned spine crawlers, attacked bunker then depot. The delays kept you from going in. You got the gold base but never got it running, and you are one of the very few players that doesn’t really use bannelings to bust walls. I think you had almost every single Zerg unit except bannelings lol.
I hate corruptors, they're still super OP. Dude literally had 3-6 marines for every corruptor directly underneath you but could still barely tickle them. Just way too much HP. I'm sure the upgrades didn't help the terran in this game tho.
Waw, i am Zerg player, and i always think, how i suppose to win in early games, i thought that zerglings are awfull but your video showwed me that they kinda cool, sadly i cant play starcraft now(
You say "Free" often but it's rarely "free"... You're losing 1 or 2 roaches or 1 ravager, those cost something. =P The worse "free" fight you mention in this video is at 31:19, the fight with your broodlords... You have 9 of them. You lose 4 of them. >.
That mine split at 5:26 is legendary. If that was me i would have lost all the lings and the queen back home
yeah like for real, what sorcery is this? XD
i had to rewatch this a couple of times because to me it looked like he just ran over the mines like they weren't even there.
This man took window mines to gm he knows their ways.
Yea, I watched this moment for the second time on lower speed to even see the move ;D So quick and elegant.
Love the new challenge rules pop up at the start, awesome to see you evolve as a content creator. Always a blast to watch!
+1
thought the exact same thing lol, good addition.
Thermy playing zerg lategame in confusion was hilarious.
I wasn't even moving units. I just stopped and wonder "are we winning or not?" lol
Props to Totoro for taking on this absolute madman twice! If Thermy is spreading creep tumors automatically without thinking about it, then his transformation to Infested Thermy is nearly complete :D
I hope it sticks, I could definitely go for more Zerg challenges :)
Yeah, GG Totoro, that was fun to watch.
Um...imagine with the deepfakeyfacemappything, Thermie playing with a Zeratul 'mask'...between that and the voice-changer thing, he would surely receive more minerals!

As per your suggestion I rewatched this at 0.25x speed. Couldn't stop laughing.
Love the newish rules placard at the beginning of the videos now, really raises the production value! Really snassy/sharp
I feel like he's having more fun doing these in an off race. Cant wait for a protoss series
yas!

Or just actually make spores, they’re the best AA zerg has and you really dont need more than 40 drones at that point.

can I be curious and ask what flavour your Ph.D. is in, doc?
@@ralphm4132 of course. Cultural Anthropology ✌🏽✌🏽
what a BANGER of a last game. Your overall experience coming thru. but the hold by this Terran was one of the best we've seen!
What I like about these videos is that is that they make me wanna do fun stuff. I'ma go do a proxy hatchery right now!
is that some sexual innuendo?
Congratulations on 70k man you deserve it.

that was/is about to be patched
Loved to see a bit more zerg game play from you here. A zerg unit restriction challenge would be really cool to watch I think.
For as many overseers that randomly died, overlord speed would have been great to take early.
pros disrespect it too much lol
He really shouldve, he just made it in the main instead of the 3rd or nat
What about a video series where you take a bronze player and personally train him up the ranks? I would love to see that!
he needs to raffle the spot and then "randomly" pick his gf

Great game indeed ! :D

Challenge cards are a nice touch 👍🏻
1:33 bad Terran! 😄
I'd love to see Lowko commentate that last game. It was a banger. Loved it.

"I feel like i need more brute lord" 😂
Marc- Nobody would play Zerg without Queens
Marc at 36:34 - *forgets his Queens*
Insane gameplay! and props to opponent for giving you a run for the victory! GG
Add a bunch of spores and spines in your late game. In your expo's and where you camp your slow units.
I haven’t played in years, but back in the day I played random and when I got Zerg, mutas to broodlords with 6ish corrupters was always my goal. If the opponent went air, I’d get more corrupters and less BLs.

We can define a new challenge here: make Marc play proper macro games on his off races =D

Great fun to watch :) Thanks :D
Last game was pretty good, i have to ask, how about some zerg drops strategy to gm? I mean transport overlord to gm or something
