    I Liked your Terran strategy a bunch, it’s unfortunate your tank was so late. If you manage to keep your medevac alive during your widowmine drop, you could have used it to bring your tank. I’m not sure how much of an impact it would have, but maybe it could help next time. Thanks for the episode!

    #uThermal @uThermal OK, I got a challenges ideas for you. Race challenges.
    1) You play with each of the races and are allowed to make 5 losses only. 5th loss means your challenge is over. Which race will you get the the highest MMR with?
    2) You play X (let's say, 50) games with each race and find out the best race (according to the achieved MMR).
    3) You play random, but after the loss you are forced to play the same race (maybe with some additional restrictions/requirements).
    Viewers can make bets/predictions on your challenges (like the race and the MMR achieved, closest wins). The winner gets a free coaching session from you.

  • @richardkalmwater5996
    @richardkalmwater5996 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    On the Thor drop against Clem:
    It seemed the battery wasn't the biggest problem because he happily pursued you out of battery range and eventually blinked on top of you taking out the Thor. I think the threat of one or two widow mines would have made him less likely to blink a cluster of stalkers on top of your army.
    However that would be less marines so the question is that swap better or not? I think yes, because a widow mine punishes clumping armies like Clem had...

    • @TekGriffon
      @TekGriffon ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Widow mines, like nukes, simply don't work on worker lines at high levels of play. You're going to get 1 worker at BEST out of them.
      If Thermy had kept them secret and deployed them behind the thor to bait out a blink, the value would have been huge and possibly game ending. Alternative, stick to the idea of using them to distract, but just deploy and undeploy them back to the medivac. Force the opponent to keep an eye and units focused on the medivac.

    • @adampreisler5679
      @adampreisler5679 ปีที่แล้ว

      He simply would not have his army clumped or only jumped 1 stalker to deal friendly fire from the mine on the marines or similar. I think the thor was not strong in that instance but the mine>marine>tank>liberator push in the last game might have more promise. But it was obvious how on point Clem was about everything. Bringing the second tank sooner with medivac would definitely help but still the scvs were pulled, Clem was likely having like 3x the amount of economy. I would be interested what would happen if you exchange drop widow mine and hellion at once because you are required to do different micro against both (for widow mine you want to pull away but for hellion if you simply pull you create a barbecue line).

    Thank you for repairing the Medivaaac! I don't understand why drops go without ONE SCV?!? Like, we all see how often the Medivac rushes back in with 10health, dies, and all those units and push/distraction potential is lost! Thank you for using SCVs to their fullest potential!

    • @wolfclaw3812
      @wolfclaw3812 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Usually if you have the space to put an SCV in, you have space for another Marine. If you're in a tight situation, there's no time for the SCV to repair the medivac, and you may as well just bring another Marine for an extra bit of damage.

    • @alekzanderor5489
      @alekzanderor5489 ปีที่แล้ว

      Its considered to be more efficient gameplay. Repairing medivac mean -1 marine in medivac and less firepower for drop, -1 scv in mineral line and less economy, - some resources used in repairing, its extra apm/attention, it slows the next drop and reduces your drop pressure/intensity.

    • @anthonyrepetto3474
      @anthonyrepetto3474 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@alekzanderor5489 I understand all of those value-streams come from marine vs scv; yet, you should look into scenarios for risk-analysis - there is a clear *threshold* ; when your medivac dies, the push ends, which is a large step-change down, while an SCV mitigates that tail of risk. "pay a small cost to prevent a huge loss" is worth it when the cost ratios are large (entire push defeated and medivac dead, divided by 'extra marine and mining') AND when the risk is likely ('medivacs get shot-down or chased away wounded and useless... OFTEN.') Just look at the *percentage* of medivac drops that lead to that dead-end of "damaged medivac, basically worthless now" - that percent incidence is high enough to be worth an onboard SCV. And, with a two-widow-mine-drop, the chance to repair a damaged mine is gold, too...

    • @alekzanderor5489
      @alekzanderor5489 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@anthonyrepetto3474 the cost isnt "small", and either the "risk" isnt that high in early-mid game, or the "loss" isnt huge for late game, both resource and pressure (you just designate new drop squad right away) wise. And for example i seen many instances where 8 marine drop sniped the base just in time run away without casualties, you sure you counted this case of job not done into the 7 marine drop? Not that i have anything against idea making use out of repair ability, it just doesnt seem worthwhile unless its mech army / squad od battlecruisers / raven ( primarily because it requires tech lab thus taking away production power for 2 medivacs/libs if you want to rebuild it for creep killing)

    I htink a trasnfer to high ground, and low ground with hte medivac cold added a better mix, if you could cut him off on teh ramp, they go into a nice file and can't all hit hyuou. a little retreat and lift to the main, so retreat out of view, and easier to reapir and hten you can move back down.. plus you cna put hte tank in apinch poitn and hte group would of walked bakc up and around ot main.. then you cna go back down withte support and take out the natural.

  • @StpMakinMeChangMyNam
    @StpMakinMeChangMyNam ปีที่แล้ว

    I think the Widow Mine drop before the Thor all-in is not good against a player of Clem's caliber. You killed 2 Probes and delayed maybe 100 minerals worth of mining time in exchange for a Medivac and 2 Widow Mines. Even the amount of time it delayed the first Immortal for was pretty meaningless. The Immortal still came out really fast.
    I think building the tech lab instantly and a tank instead would have been better. That way you could siege the tank right outside the natural and it can constantly shell the buildings and units with your Thor and Marines. Much more DPS and makes blinking on top of the Thor much harder.
    Even then though, Clem's defense was looking really clean. It still might not have worked. There's a reason why Thor cheese hasn't been popular since Wings of Liberty. Protoss defense has been solved.

    • @adampreisler5679
      @adampreisler5679 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah that would be good but I am sure Clem would keep punishing with Stalkers from far away picking away marines, medivac health or scvs. I wonder if building a bunker would help if only to create one more 400 HP target for Clem to worry about and building it far away so it only barely reaches the bottom gateway (so kinda close to the robo). Clem would have a hard time punishing that because his units couldn't all fire at once.

      They are used, it’s just fairly situational. Against Terran they’re a must, against Protoss if there is collossus you want about 6-8, and against skytoss a few more. It just depends. Depending on the Zerg opponents composition you might take some against broodlords, but generally thors and ghosts work better there. They’re just very flimsy, and quite expensive so landing them is very rarely the right call except against unguarded tanks or something
