People often say the Sc2 skill has dropped off compared to the olden days. But I always held Parting as the king of Blink, what MaxPax is doing is not just evovled it's another level above that pure pleasure watching him pick off and annoy even the best. The level of both these players is just insane.
This finals just reiterates why I stopped playing when Adepts were nurfed to need 3 shots to kill an SCV. Funnily enough, I'm pretty sure Protoss havent won a tournament since. 8, 9 years? How can you win against cheaper, faster, higher dps units that have an economic advantage with mules? Idk why i still watch these.
The balance is horrific for Protoss right now. The balance council basically expects them to play like a more expensive, but shittier zerg, to somehow pull of wins with perfect micro. I've noticed it from the Protoss losing all of these tournaments, but now the influencers are starting to shout it as well (The latest balance patch was a joke too)
@@theblessing33 it is just stupid to look at these big protoss numbers not getting anything done and destroyed by smaller groups of tiny marines and marauders... protoss units really lost their identity of being costly but strong... even lorewise, it was always about fighting against big army sizes with small numbers of strong units. and you always had to manage to somehow keep those strong units alive and fight countless weaker units with it. but nowadays protoss really feels more like zerg, while terran bio feels more tanky than protoss ground troups. when it turnes out protoss is too strong, then it's still possible to increase costs in supply or rescources, but instead they really just made them more like a shittier zerg, like you said. i don't get how the balance team can lose their vision to this extend. i don't even care if protoss is slightly weaker or harder to play. i just want them to be real protoss again.
Been loving both players recently. I can't stand watching MaxPax, not build freaking star gates or phoenix's lol. Wanted to see him destroy all of Clem's medivacs and ravens. They are fun to watch though.
@@growtocycle6992 last time I watched herO he blew up 1/4 of his army with his own purification nova while being outside combat. It was unlucky indeed..
The jab at Blizzard's working environment was on point ;) Great to watch a fellow Dane. Did not know we had one capable of competing with the big boys.
hes honestly more consistent than hero hero takes big risks literally the only reason he doesnt show up in the huge tournaments is because he doesnt do inperson stuff
The deciding engagement in game 3 when Clem took his third was weird. Maxpax went for mass zealot but then his forcefields were in front of the marines and tanks so his zealots couldn't do anything.
Considering Max won their last two matches... Why do you balance whine before it starts, clearly it's absolutely fine to play as Protoss vs Terran, including Clem (if you're Max)
@@geuros"Look! Protoss can win against terran. No issues with balance that means. Forget allllll those other times where protoss didn't even make it to the semis. But NOW balance is restored!"
@@geuros Yeah you only have to outmanuver your opponents with dozens of finicky, incredible fragile units with hard counters while MMM+Ghosts kills more or less everything cost-effectively
@@geuros protoss is hard countered by a cheesy composition of easy to spam units, max pax does triple the economic damage he takes and it's all meaningless because mules and ghosts. Emp should do waaay less sheild nullification.
At +2 protoss ground weapons it takes 8 stalker shots (by my calcumalations) to take down a +0 medivac. If you get 7 shots, the medivac escapes at 3 hp. I find this extremely frustrating to watch. It's almost as much as a liberator, which has 30 more hp, but 0 base armor. It's not fair.
From the videos I've seen: Clem avoid pretty much ALL disruptors when he micro, Maru and Byun 50 / 50, the rest don't bother to micro to avoid [Terran, I have not pay attention to Zerg, like Dark or Rogue].
Rooting for Max tbh... each of the first two games, Clem found a point he would repeatedly ignore as a nuisance-level threat and kept exploiting it. Saw the amount of time remaining and didn't watch the third.
those are cards from another game called heart stone, those are just a way of describing the players playstyle while referencing heart stone, it doesnt affect the gameplay.
If the terran was patched to a 30% win rate in both matchups it'd still be too goddamn high. On second thought, nerf terran mirror matchups too. I dont care how.
Proud to be one of the likes that took us past 1445 likes! Let's go. We need to make a bingo card for all the things Winter says. "eviscerated", "a brenda blackout", what else?
Curious how/why maxpax didn't have more advantage in game 1 after rebuking clems entire widow mine drop, trading better in the initial fight, and denying stem. Two siege tanks just completely shut him out 😶🌫️
So, first game MaxPax did good start and still lose. Second game he have a bad start and lose. And last game also did a somewhat good start and still lose. Then, how to beat this Clem guy? Cheese him?
Clem is just happy to be playing anything other than Rogue's Zerg
Changling derangement syndrome
time for maxpax's mass hallucinations
"how many disruptors are left?! zero! ... that's not very many!"
How can you not like winter? This guy is humble and just doing his thing
"trying to keep up! it's exhausting! ... maybe i'm just getting old."
I felt that in my soul, winter. I felt that in my soul.
They got stims for that.

People saying that are deluded by nostalgia. Clem, Serral or MaxPax would make any old school pro player look like a diamond
Stim amove up a ramp into a few hydras used to be the epitome of good play. Not even stutter stepping, just stim amove.

Man that was so sad. Out of a 100 high profile games you see protoss maybe take 1 or 2, its crazy.
Don't worry though! They just nerfed them even more! Wait...

DJ Clem about to drop the base. Srsly dude how? 🤣
That's genius haha
THANKS TO MAKE OUR DAY A LITTLE BIT BETTER
What a series! I love MaxPax! MaxPax actually turned 20 this year 39:47
AND JIMMY WHAT ARE WE AT
I have had a good day so far, and it just got better. Love your content, keep it up!
Holy Moly, Maxpack and Clem always have such nail-biting games.
Just when I thought he was taking a break today he uploads.
dang, game one was basically peak pvt. MaxPax feels like the only protoss who can fight with Clem heads up.
Hero would like to have a word... He got unlucky last time

@@koutetsusama2498 well it's not like marines can't shoot up, so fenix on their own dont kill medivacs.
I've decided to quit my job, leave my family, and become a preacher on the street corner yelling out to people that PvT is unbalanced.
let me join you in your crusade, templar
only terran beating toss is clem rn tho 🤔
Now you know how it feels when it's tvz. Serral be owning all terrans and toss every matchup.
@@keyes8495 Serral lost 5-0 to Clem.
They need to buff protoss or nerf terran. Id be okay with a zerg buff too

Thank you. First was a typical Max game with disruptors, storm needed I think.
Thanks!
Ohh yeah i see MaxPax and leave everything aside and Like the video 👍
The deciding engagement in game 3 when Clem took his third was weird. Maxpax went for mass zealot but then his forcefields were in front of the marines and tanks so his zealots couldn't do anything.
and it's best toss player😂
Just mentally screaming at clem "CADUCEUS REACTOR"
That face at 26:50, Winter is so sad about MaxPax wasting this round
Man, it just seems like 1 phoenix would be so valueable for defense
"Widow-mine" presumes the Protoss get married. But what of the Zerg weddings???
wow that first game was intense!
Maan, Winter can make a video about a dusty old vacuum and it would be epic... haha, i can hear him talking to it in my head right now !!
love the high quality stream, very crisp and good looking graphics
47:50
needs a passive aggressive "job's finished" at the end
Winter: "Why does Clem have two liberators just guarding this base?"
Winter 5 min later: "This one base is the only reason Clem's still in it!"
"Nextsus" is another great pun, hope to hear more about it ❤
Thanks winter you're the best
Im here for another game of the year and the classy intro
My day got a little bit better after watching this
yes just what I needed
Dude you got such a heavy 5 o clock mustache shadow. Just grow it out for us already
This was most professional! Please cast another one. You were probably going to do it anyway😂
Wow! this two are soo good. Another level of skill
to know if I see this before you can put on the description: mach played x day, ty.
I cannot see how Protoss can stand any chance! It’ll be an exciting watch regardless

Dj Clem about to drop the bass (base) lol
Game 1 was one of the best game of this year
Clem is in his chef era 👨🍳 max pax is cooked no rizz reapers on micro sigma no cap on god fr fr
How do protoss make love - I've always wondered ..
Maxpax took the forward base on Amphion because the SCV was blocking the 3rd after it left the engineering bay.
@WinterStarcraft 47:34 BASEket ball reference?
I believe it might have been a reference to the movie 'Dodgeball' That's a bold strategy, Cotton, let's see if it pays off for them
Love your content.YOu are the best human to have existed.
Damn son.
Is Clem still in Korea? Man, that trip really paid off.
11:24 Box art
Is this a reupload? Im pretty sure I've seen this game before like a year ago.
"DJ Clem about to drop a base" 🤣
If tanks have extreme damage and range than Disruptors should. Move slower but the projectile attack should be quicker

"walk over a bulding?" you have any idea how many codes and regulations that would violate? the permit paperwork alone...
Game 1 was unreal!!
Long live the Emperor and Terran Empire!
Watching this after the latest protoss nerfs and terran buffs is just brutal
Rooting for Max tbh... each of the first two games, Clem found a point he would repeatedly ignore as a nuisance-level threat and kept exploiting it. Saw the amount of time remaining and didn't watch the third.
7:06 deathstalker recall 😅😅😅
From Cuba you are the best
I will never get why Protoss players build disruptors
INSANE FIRST GAME
First game was epic but also frustrating
Lol. Look how effortless terran harras was. Half a dozen blink stalkers cant get the same damage as one auto turrents. That was funny
battery.
Sorry if this is dumb but what are those perks in the beginning for each player? I’m new to StarCraft and interested in learning more. Thank you!!

@@markrose8440 thank you!!
I don’t even need to watch the video to know that Terran wins the series 😂
fortuitous means happening by chance
47:20 clem may have overcomitted to phenix😅
Ridiculous imba. Terran is unbeatable here.
If the terran was patched to a 30% win rate in both matchups it'd still be too goddamn high.
On second thought, nerf terran mirror matchups too. I dont care how.
Heh. Why not go a step further and delete Terran altogether.
Actually, it still might not be enough. We need to nerf Terran more.
Proud to be one of the likes that took us past 1445 likes! Let's go. We need to make a bingo card for all the things Winter says. "eviscerated", "a brenda blackout", what else?
Jimmy, what are we...
Clem, the new age Starcraft villain. At least, to me as a Zerg main. Love and hate that dude.
I'm 100% sure this time, Terran is unbeatable by design
I wish there was some way for the video length to not spoil the outcome from like one third of the way into the video.
Until I see Maxpax’s face I’m just gonna assume he’s Alpha Star.
Curious how/why maxpax didn't have more advantage in game 1 after rebuking clems entire widow mine drop, trading better in the initial fight, and denying stem. Two siege tanks just completely shut him out 😶🌫️
That marine at the beginning stressing me out
The new terran expansion defense is now 2 libs and a turret,
Planetary is no longer needed
MaxPax is that young?? Wow
Terran won, i am really surprised 😂
Disruptor needs one second more duration for nova.
GOD DAMNIT DO I HAVE TO SUBSCRIBE AGAIN
What Protoss has to achieve to have.ä a slight winning chance .. Terran balanced of course and not to cheap and versatile
The storm not to use is the key cause of lose game
I bet we could pressure Microsoft into giving us a Sc1 remastered style update for 2
Stalkers are very good.
How many ruptors are left? Zero, that is not that many!!
Wish I could like this video twice!
Is it just me or have i never seen a series on your channel winter with clem where he loses the series? Seems like everyone i watch he always wins
is it 30fps/lagging? or am i trippin
So, first game MaxPax did good start and still lose. Second game he have a bad start and lose. And last game also did a somewhat good start and still lose. Then, how to beat this Clem guy? Cheese him?
drop the beat! Dire, Ire
Medivac OP
Hey, there, guys!
There's so many finals
Another OP Tarren
The nextus?
who would have guessed, protoss lost again
2nd to last game would have been a win if those ghosts were nerfed
