One of the most impressive things about Dark is how is constantly looking for a way in, even going to statistically subpar strategies to see if they leverage a weakness that crept in. I think he thinks more of a toolbox rather than builds or buildo orders, which can seem (or actually be) sloppy, but it means he is more willing to pivot, and his experience helps him know when to pivot. Such a good series! Love Dark's play.
@@kosmosXcannon a hypothetical serral-dark hybrid that knows every zerg strat, picks whichever is most likely to work, and uses constant aggression to defend while also having excellent macro and micro would be close to the perfect sc2 player
In an interview talking about Dark's family and life situation, he was quite candid and spoke of plans to return home, spend time with his family to make up for the time he's lost with his daughter and rest for the two months he has before he has to get into military service. I'm assuming this is a strict deadline now, the way he talked about it, but who knows.
Why Dark is not Military yet? because he became a Dad and if he gets 3 babys before he turns 30 he might not have to do his Military Service at all as you are obligated to enlist for the service between 18 and 35. And the reason: the South Korean government desperately wants to boost the nation’s ailing birth rate to stave off a looming demographic disaster btw this idea from the gov, came just before Dark became a dad. so we might see dark never go to military service Such amazing Games i could watch Dark and Maru all day long
You 100% need to win something big before being "the best of the best" We don't call none champion basketball players the best of the best, or any sport for that matter.
Hey lowko if you ever read the chats want to know when did you do the live casting for the torment day itself on the venue like you stated in the 1st vedio
@@Kazuhiro-i he didn’t do anything wrong, it was just a joke because he comments under almost every lowko video „spoiler shield! Like this comment to ensure others aren’t spoiled by the top comment!“
Lowko what is the ewc video where you share your "expertise" about starcraft? I want to see that but there are several videos and like 11 hours each... Fan from Costa Rica!
You can be the world champion, but you can also not be the best terran, zerg, or protoss at the same time. That is determined by your winrates in each matchup combined.
They say Maru has never won a world cup but forget about all his GSL runs. GSL is a global league, it just takes place in Korea. I used to hold GSL on just as high a standard as the WCS global finals, only its a different format.
The final game is casted first by everyone youtuber,I saw 3 casters casting final,before lowko,its top priority I think,we dont need 2 weeks fairytale till we get final game
is it possible to make a map that isn't symmetrical? where the race you are will dictate where the gold minerals will be located? sometimes it feels like gold base locations only help one race but by making it change locations based on what race is selected. If zerg, put the gold base closer but if terran, that same base, same location, would be regular minerals. the mineral location would be the same but the gold minerals would be swapped. I have no idea if i explained that correctly. thanks for the videos. :).
The current best Terran, without a shred of doubt, is Clem. I will not give a spoiler, but his last big tournament play was so ridiculous that it was the best performance ever seen since the golden Maru days, and Serral won everything and shocked the world.
Maru vs Dark is always my absolute favorite matchup in the entire game and this series is a perfect example of why.
One of the most impressive things about Dark is how is constantly looking for a way in, even going to statistically subpar strategies to see if they leverage a weakness that crept in.

Such a good series! Love Dark's play.
It feels like he truly plays the game the way it's meant to be
Wonder if Serral could learn a thing or 2 from Dark
Couldn't have said it better!
With that last game, the nydus and burrowed roach harassment was on point!

Probably the only player left who playes with what his heart desires, not what the numbers say.
Dark is a true impersonation of Zerg.
personification?
@@brianmendelson1736 Nah, I'd say humanization
@@Notrealbuu not zergification? maybe he is like kerrigan.
Maru: You know the rules and so do i.
Dark: Nope i don't.
Big props to EWC for getting those replay packs out so quickly. It's been great seeing these replays so fast.
Lowko probably was there with a USB stick sneaking in the server room to get the replays.
32:26 That's one hell of an engagement from Dark! Really beautiful.
@44:20 Lowko wanders from technical Starcraft into Existential Musings after making a new sound effect, the memeable trifecta lol.
Love the term, "Dark Spot" 😇
Dark is something else entirely, no other top Zerg player is nearly as fun to watch, he actually plays SC2 as a strategy game.
Dark is so creative! His matches are always fun to watch.
Yes, there is beauty in this game, Lowko, you are right.
amazing series, amazing casting , thanks man!
In an interview talking about Dark's family and life situation, he was quite candid and spoke of plans to return home, spend time with his family to make up for the time he's lost with his daughter and rest for the two months he has before he has to get into military service.

Would you ever consider doing a video going over the basics like you did at the world cup stream?
As someone who has been watching this game for a very long time. I would still enjoy watching that.
As someone who played this game for years... I'm sure I would learn something
I love how dark throws his oponent off (at 7:10)
Can you do videos of what each species units do, their strengths and weaknesses, and what’s good builds to counter opponents?
dark is a monster. great set from the both of them.
beautiful stuff. Watching masters at their craft competing.
That first game. This why Dark is my favorite player 😂❤. I love the "IM THE SWARM" style of play ❤❤❤😂😂😂
I'm Literally Shaking Right Now Watching This. wow.
It was fun Dark! I love to watch ur games
Dark is so fun to watch. Beautiful
what an amazing series. way better than grand finals ! kudos dark
Thanks for the video, Lowko. Happy Friday! ❤
Loved it!
hahaha! this series was great, especially game 1! thanks SC2 Expert!
Swarm Hosts?!?!?! tunneling claws Roaches?!? haha, I love watching Dark!
that last game was dope!!!!!
great games! great series!
Plans are nothing but planning is everything. Is it possible that dark is so prepared he is able to be more dynamic than anyone else?
Dark has got to be my favorite at this point.
Starcraftis best rts. It will never be dethroned
Dark is by far the most fun to watch out of all the top players
Dark brings light to my life
crazy good
dark live
I'm a big fan of Serral but Dark was the most suitable to play against Clem.
10:50 did the reaper always headbang? thats crazy
This guy “Lowko” comments better than GSL commentators. Thumbs up 👍. Also my English teacher lmao.

btw this idea from the gov, came just before Dark became a dad. so we might see dark never go to military service
Such amazing Games i could watch Dark and Maru all day long
WAIT! Epic. Shouldnt this be "The Game of the Year" video!!!
first! always love seeing new lowko videos :3
'i wont bother practicing terran vs zerg on dynasty cuz itll get vetoed anyways'
meanwhile dark:
Dark was lowkey BMing him in that last match after the initial "you lost, get out" moves were just greeted by repeated hatch snipes.
LowkoTV lets hope Dark can avoid military service at all. I love his game in SC2. He is the funny man, someone that cannot be replicated.
You 100% need to win something big before being "the best of the best"

Okay bro
Yeah like... by definition you need at least one championship under your belt. Otherwise you aren't even the best at the tourney lol
@@JD-wu5pf okay sis
I need to know where the name "Crimson Court" came from!!
New lowko!!
Hey lowko if you ever read the chats want to know when did you do the live casting for the torment day itself on the venue like you stated in the 1st vedio
Aka which stream which day
Hey hey, I was on the EWC Central broadcast last week
@@LowkoTVyo lowko when is SC3 dropping
Dark is best sc2 player. I love watching him and serral. Don't happen often. Best 2 players tho

dark his macro is absolutely crazy
I Aldo pooped my pants!! 😀

Bruce Willis was dead the whole time.

I hold an sc2 tournament in my basement every year. The entire world is invited. I guess that makes me the goat.
@@jakelink1482 U probably are a goat, or at the very least, looks and smells like a goat.
Dark for pres.
These thumbnails... 😂 I guess it's game of the year substitute for now.
I poopied my pants!
Why did you upload the final first?
Its not the final
@@SoyJuIia I know. it’s serral vs Clem. Which lowko uploaded first
The finals are up on my channel already, posted it a few days ago. 😊

Whenever Lowko says 'generally speaking' I say General Lee Speaking to myself and do a mock salute.

I've been away from the SCII scene for a while (ever since MarineLord win in nation wars 3). Isn't innovation the best terran player any longer?

play company of heroes 2 i recommend rts game
third yay!
I'm upset at you Lowko
It’s obvious that Maru is way more skilled than Dark. Swap Dark to Terran and Maru to Zerg and Maru stomps no contest
Zerg is OP, that's why the world champion is Terran
