harstem constantly: "waking up to the smell of coffee is the worst team name ever it has too many words i need to put a cap on length for next time"
harstem, when speaking to the team: "it's a great name"
"the names too long, i would've picked 'prince of denmark and something something [much longer name] '" lmao
I love these games. It looks like it takes a lot of effort to make and coordinate, but the content is really entertaining and the production is super well done.
12:50 LOOOOL THE TIMING
Man I started buying bane boost because of this tournament and now I’m an addict. TH-cam should really give harstem more adds as he really influences the things his fans buy. 👀👀👀👀
my Bane Boost past their best before date and my bum went bang! :-/
i dont know where to get the 32 pack though, i only ever get the 4 packs. but same, very addicted.
@@Pandesaltosino you can buy them from any Hive, but the local hatch's don't normally stock enough
I'm with you, man. I-I just can't survive ten minutes without some bane boost. I-it's taking over my life! I-I gotta go to my Bane Boost's Anonymous meeting. Wish me luck!
That last game is a certified tvt moment
This being the first comment is actually a huge spoiler if you watch on mobile 😔
Get good trades => deny enemy bases => get better economy and bigger army => lose all production to a doom drop => lose 😎👌
I love seeing MaxPax in Cosplay on the pictures - the other have their boring sports t-shirts, but MaxPax... he really shows effort!
Thank you Harstem for creating such an awesome StarCraft II tournament! I also liked the editing and the design very much.
What a doomdrop! Spotted so early it might as well have been announced in all chat like it's Funday Monday. Just a perfect ending to an archon tournament, too many cooks leading to a completely botched defense. Team assignments at its finest.
"Please let me focus."
Maxpax, as brutal as ever lmao

so cool listening to the strats in between games, this is the best sc content I’ve seen in a while and the last GSL was pretty great
"Marc is so wild, anything can happen" - Kelazhur. 🤣😂
This was such a fun tournament to watch! Getting insight into the players thoughts both before and during the game was great. It was really entertaining! I hope we get to see more seasons of Harstem's Archon Tour.
Harstem: 'This cyclone is useless"
Also Harstem a few minutes later: "Beautiful cyclone move" xD
This tournament was extremely entertaining to watch. Hearing the players' comms, their reactions, and their treatment of one another was very new and interesting. Seeing amazing executions and all the outplays was amazing. Please try and make more of this type of content!
Loved the series!
The players seemed to have fun. Hope that it really was the case.
Keep up the good work Harstem! Best SC2 content producer IMHO.
12:50 - 12:55 for the best part of the entire tournament
Need more bane boost. Burns so good. I almost die every time!
After the bullying it had to endure, I was very happy to see the cyclone succeed in life. Not only did it kill observers and zealots, it also shut down the warp prism. Good job, little buddy. Harstem didn't believe in you, but you showed him!
Yes! I love the archon games x3
That banter during the PvP was hilarious!
Oh! That is fantastic idea for the tournament. Let's make SC2 into a team sport!
That doom drop was such a uThermal move. Epic!
We want mooooooore archons mode!
This tournament is super cool. Thanks for putting it together.
Love this! Could you introduce the teams and players at the beginning though? I forget who is on each team
Archon tournament is a brilliant idea! I hope there will be more in the future!!
That's why harstem is my favorite carster. As professional he knows what he is talking about and he has the connections to the other tier 1 players and is able to plan something great like this
Thanks for this tournament harstem, was a pleasure to watch !
That series deserved a legit sponsor and prize. Maybe next time? Good job..
This was awesome. Way cooler than I thought it would be. I loved hearing the team strat talk between games.
That was the most exciting final game I've seen in awhile! Good stuff, excited to see more of these in the future
Just a fantastic tournament overall, and a hell of a series to finish it. I genuinely didn't know who was going to win for so long. Great format, and I would love to see a season 2 in the future!
Really good series. WOULD LOVE more of this in the future! And that last game holy moly, this is why we watch archon! GG'S and thank you for hosting this amazing series
How can harstem still not get the name of the team correctly this far in 🤣
Fantastic series and amazing final game! Love content like this! Keep up the great work
Harstem gaming
Dear Harstem, great series as a whole, you should really keep working on it it could be it's own genre and breathe new life into this game. I love the pervy sound peek o nthe each team during each maneuvre.
Bruh, the marine blob getting shelled on the ramp on the way to defend the doom drop was so disgusting lol
In the Phoenix fight MaxPax hotkeys the number of Phoenix to 1-shot another Phoenix, so he has like 3-4 control groups for the bunch of Phoenix on the screen, and maybe a control group for all of them.
In a battle of clustered Phoenix-vs-Phoenix, the winner is whoever lands the first psionic storm.
Such a good series. The advertisers that pulled out, sure did miss.
When Harstem said "build some disruptor," in match 2 I was like "noooooo the channeling will use them" and then realized I am watching a normal archon match...
*changeling
Any team uthermal is on gets my support!
I like watching zerglings and banelings dance around eachother
"I wish we had heart rate monitors [....] they cant stand this much excitement" :D
Great games! Hope you will host more tournaments in the future
Thank you Bane Boost for sponsoring this amazing tournament! 😋
Congratz on the 100 000 subscribers.
Great tourney! Archon mode is so fun as a viewer if you can listen to the players midgame! I hope there will be more if this be it 2 archon or 3 archon tournaments or even 2v2 tourneys! Cool idea
Double upload? Yes
this is why i dont need to go to doctors. harstem informing me im more than half way to the grave. edit: and that nexus is more than half way complete
"It's a great name for a team" says it wrong every time
You're a content MACHINE!
Not keeping the viking back to harass prism once it was spotted oof
Harstem is legit hilarious and someone I think that would be fun to chill with in real life...
"Tanks finally come unsieged. These guys haven't seen action for a long long time...longer than the average SC2 player." Haha

Thank you harstim, loved the tournament
That useless cyclone ended up pulling it weight after all. ( PVT old timers match)
That last game was surprising.
Harstem, I am here to let you know that the plural of nexus is actually "nexus." It's a 4th declension noun. I am a Latin teacher. Just FYI!
Nexi is more fun though. Messe is also the plural of moose
So Leonel Messus is just one guy and Messi refers to a team of them
He plays like three people archon moding football, though. He must be referred to as plural.
Just want to repeat that you should do crowd funding for the next tournament. Let the supporters have access to the full replays and the communications between teams (make sure they know that ahead of time so they don't talk about anything private in the game), and you're good to go as far as incentives go.
You'd need to really go over the details, but funding goals could include additional casters (two per game is optimal), better prize money to attract more players and add more games to the bracket, and beyond a certain point the overage should go towards the next tournament, to keep the ball rolling.
Watching pros go killling massacres on themselves is really fun
Great series, greaat concept, great execution.
Great Hamster
bro i loved this tournament made me hyped to play
Wow that last game was insane!
man this is the best tournament ever, need some bane boost
Maxpax is just built different. Or just simply very specialized.
This one is blowing up
A great finals it was.
that final doom drop from team coffee was 100% uthermal, yeah the one that dropped in front of the siege tanks instead of on top of the siege tanks was probably elazer but, you cant tell me the final drop wasnt uthermal
Loved it, thanks harstem
Bruh
this was GREAT!
Nicely done tournament. If you do another i watch it.
12:20 MaxPax royalty confirmed??
First of all congratulations on one dezimillion subs.
Second, as a great host you should probably have given uthemal a shout out for his channel. I know you directly allowed him to do it, but he seemed to be kind of shy about it. As he is very new to the game he might be even intimidated by your very successful TH-cam persona.
I mean isn't your main the most successful and influential sc2 gaming channel?
Uthermal might even somewhat copied your channel's bgwss.
Well I don't know who came up with the idea of those challenges in the first place anyway.
Also I think uthermal made the challenges into a different format so it is more like he took your channel as an inspiration.
You probably should invite him for a 1 on 1 and as a former teammate and fellow Dutchman teach him a little about the game, no sc2 but being a youtuber.
Again gz on 100k wp hf.
congrats on 100k subscribers
Night be the best SC2 content ever. Thank you captain!
Hello Harstem,
Really enjoy your contents, keep it up buddy!
would prefer not or there would be immediate spoilers since you would know how many games will be played and even what matchups
Just not enough coffee jokes.
After watching the PvP...
Seems to me like Maxpaxes engagements consist of positioning the phoenixes near the opponent and then just stack them defensively and let the opponent engage and disengage (assuming similar army size). He doesnt seem to poke in first, therefor he will always have better focus fire.
He seem to heavily prioritize stacking over movement. I assume the more you stack the phoenixes the more likely the enemy army AI units will choose different targets in your tightly stacked group and spread the damage out over multiple units, resulting fewer or no units lost. (at 36:48 and 37:41)
The opponent lost phoenix count/hp, because he let the phoenixes spread more and dmg output, when units in the back moved in and out of range. When both sides were focusing on stacking , it was equal trade and he had no advantage in the fight. I would probably? put move-command on rapid fire, just for phoenix wars.
Basically, aggressive camping. Not really complicated.
(Worth mentioning that the more you overkill a single phoenix, the less valuable target firing becomes, because you waste dmg output , although that is only relevant in longer direct engagements, which didnt happen here. Since humans cant control two groups at once, maybe in that case you'd want to have a split group for stacked target fire that doesnt overkill too much, while the rest of the army just fights straight up or with a few shift queues.)
Catching a single phoenix in the middle, when jumping in from the fog of war was a different case of course, which has not much to do with the main phoenix engagements.
(I dont really watch PvP anymore, because it became a terrible matchup with the superbattery, however based on this instance this was my perception.)
I also noticed it seemed like maxpax got advantages in trades often at the end of the engagement - the opponent would try to retreat, spreading out their phoenixes and leaving the ones at the back to take more damage without the bulk of the army returning fire.
Great games - would like to hear coms for the teams 100% of the time though. Its so interesting hearing them strategize it seems a shame to not be listening to them the whole time
Amazing games
Super fun games!
I would have GG'd after that first trade with those Phoenixs where Maxpax got 3 to Showtime's 1 lol. Maxpax must have the perfect amount of Phoenix to do just enough damage (or a bit more) to kill another Phoenix on a single control group and then the same on a second control group and probably even the same on a third control group. That way he can tell his Phoenix to do 3 Phoenix worth of damage at once to 3 different Phoenix at once whereas Showtime is using all of his Phoenix to target fire one down at a time which is HUGE amount of Dmg that is being wasted each volley. I always wondered why more Pros didn't do this. Because it's true for all units except for ones that deliver a continueous stream of Dmg ie. BC and Void Ray and etc. Even Harstem says that he had "no idea what happened there." Target fire is ridiculously ineffecient with larger armies. It's really damn cool to see how frickin efficient Maxpax is compared to one of best Protoss in the world, Showtime. So cool! GG!
After further observation, Maxpax DEF has them on two different control groups, you can see it in the way they move and how his group of Pheonixs shoots twice for Showtimes once. He tells the second group to hold position for a fraction of a second and then tells them to attack. Doing this perfectly DOUBLES his effective DPS! LOL That's insane! I'm am absolutely amazed that NONE of the three of the Old Timers noticed that Maxpax was doing this. After the match they were all baffled, Harstem too! Insanity!!
Your observations are completely incorrect and make me wonder if you even play the game.

Good content, thank you)
Do we finally get the 100k face reveal!
yayyy archon games
I was hoping so much for a classic ZvT ... xD
Love you content
pls more. that is a great system!
What if he did another archon tour with one pro player on each team that controls 2 noobs?
The 2 noobs would be destroyed
I just had an idea for a beating grandmasters with stupid stuff, mass landed vikings
So much Cyclone hate! It wasn't the Cyclone's fault it got commissioned :/
100k!
I live in Alabama and that is indeed wrong here
"wake up and smell the coffee" is too long, if i were capt id choose 'the prince of denmark and company" (longer name more syllables). lmao
where is the imba or do i suck form?
I love these lol
πάμε ρε γαμότωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωωω
This series had to be scripted!! One of my ATF's. Thanks for putting these together,
was the order preset Z then P then T? Is it to keep the ghosts out of zerg matchups because they're so imba?
