Harstem: "Walling properly is a high level skill. These low rated players don't know how to do it properly". Me: "Ha, noobs can't wall". Harstem: "My opponent is only 5.3k MMR so only maybe top 180 Grandmaster". Me: >.
I am so sad how his Sunken in base series failed miserably, as they look like the most dick move one can make in SC 2 :D. Next ti building assimilator in the enemy base of course! xD
My favorite cheese on Zerg is a proxy hatch roach-all-in where I hit with 7 roaches at 3:15. Not sure how well it would work at higher level, but it's pretty darn good in plat.
BOOMER ALERT, BOOMER ALERT. Oh sorry about that, that's just my boomer detector alerting me about some boomer it has detected. You wouldnt have happened to see one around here have you?... Have you?... You know, the interesting thin about this boomer detector is that it is never wrong. When it goes off, there is always a boomer near by. I know I'm not a boomer, and if you haven't seen one around... well you can see where I'm going with this. Why dont you come with me back to my car. I have some friends, and they dont take no for an answer, so dont try to run. We have a few questions wed like to ask you.
Harstem has became what once upon a time something he swore to destroy truly u either die a hero or one day see urself as the villain fun games! More pls
Once many seasons ago I cheesed my way into perfect placements a plat by just running the 6 pool without ever playing sc2 before. Bring back the 6 pool!
harstem playing zerg? YAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I'd love to see some burrowed baneling/lurker jump scare traps, on ramps, and inside ur/enemy mineral lines, so you can defend/jump scare them with banelings under ground. and random defense lurkers for random xelnaga towers, I know you dont tend to get burrow much, but its actually pretty good for drones when getting shot at by banshees mutalisks liberators or phoenix beams, while not being so great against hellions since their line damage doesn't need detection like the mutalisk glaves bounce does. You can also catch oracles with groups of burrowed queens by hiding them under drones then swapping burrowed units burrowing drones and un burrowing queens while also transfusing the queens with each other and transfusing your spores, to show us your counter to oracle harass. in the old wings of liberty days, we would put burrowed banelings on ramps all the time for zealots and set them on the bottom of the ramp for the sentries, or marauders, and in the mineral line for hellions that are after ur drones. another fun trick with banelings is to put them in groups of 2 or even alone hidden inside bushes on hold position command, hitting entire marine blobs for those precious close range jump scares.
Heck, cheesiest man alive as zerg is sick! I was waiting for it for too long. How about revisiting the eternal classics of Bly proxy hatches, especially, variations of 3 rav rush in ZvT and 12 pool hatch block in ZvP?
To be honest, I think he needs to seriously stop and consider just how much power over the mental aspects of the game he truly holds. He has such a practical working knowledge of the game that he can play at this level with any race while simultaneously casting it AND making up adjustments in real time to ANY race's build orders on the fly just to see what happens. And he has no fear whatsoever to go into a game and play any order he choose. That kind of lack of fear of failure combined with the knowledge of the game mechanics he has is something unusual.
@harstem I don’t have the micro for it but do you think you could defeat a battery in the natural with 8-10 babes? The strat would be to put a couple on the unit at the gate but then use the remaining names on a pylon or core to make the hole? Perhaps soften the core with lings as required
You got me laddering again after not having played 1v1 in like seven years, ever since day9 stopped making dailies. I can't play and talk at the same time, let alone in another language!
@@rozmarinideas5340 because I need the wins and in some cases I get nervous mess up the build orders and lose up to 10 games in a row,I uninstalled a few months ago btw :p
You showed a match between serral and reynor where one of them did a proxy spine in zvz , has that become bad or could you use that build in your zvz ?
I really hate Zerg cheese because it never feels like it needs to be all that commited, like you can flood 50 lings and have 50 drones behind it with three bases.
@@henningbreede6428 well, yeah I'm only Diamond, that doesn't stop all my opponents complaining that Terran is imbalanced whenever I do any damage, so I can complain about cheese.
This episode really did a number on the GG counter 😂
21:10 was a thing of beauty
He makes it look so easy
Harstem: "Walling properly is a high level skill. These low rated players don't know how to do it properly".

Me: >.
My captain, as a bug myself I believe I speak for the swarm when I say we'd love to see more zerg gameplay
I concur. This one speaks truly of our consensus. We are the swarm... or perhaps the geth. Whoops, wrong franchise :D
@@mikeballew3207 borg?

21:05 that was so sick.
The laugh when the opponent leaves immediately is the best part
6:55 is when an entire zoo went loose
"And here is a Harstem in his natural habitat."
Goddamn, the surround using slowlings into the rage quit, beautiful, peak content captain!

I use to switch up this and 3 base ling floods in ZvP and it worked well.
The problem with that is that Dark-style proxy hatch into a spine rush is tastier.
2 cheeses in two days? This is making your opponents lactose intolerant, and makin me laugh 🤣
BOOMER ALERT, BOOMER ALERT. Oh sorry about that, that's just my boomer detector alerting me about some boomer it has detected. You wouldnt have happened to see one around here have you?... Have you?...

Actually cheese has a lot less lactose than other dairy so it's generally fine for lactose intolerant people 😉
3 cheeses in 3 days would be correct.
everytime he wins... all i think about is how cool his execution is
Using the ramp to waste the banes is a brilliant move. So many good plays in this episode.
This is the best series on TH-cam
Would love to see you play zerg more often 🖐
I love the aggressive play! Have a Starcrafty day!
Stinky Zerg cheese tastes most deliciously. Well played Harstem thanks for the vid.
Learned the power of the Zerg cheese. I knew this day would come and all I can say is ANOTHER!
Wow that overlord acted as some kind of magnet....
The retard magnet haha, classic.
21:16 Your inner joker is leaking out harstem ;p
Harstem has became what once upon a time something he swore to destroy truly u either die a hero or one day see urself as the villain fun games! More pls
That second game was awesome. Reminded me of a strategy from a player called Destiny which had an offensive name for the bait overlord
You should try rogues hatch cheese outside the natural with spines. Love the Zerg vids btw
Thats one of the best videos i saw of you. Good job!
Once many seasons ago I cheesed my way into perfect placements a plat by just running the 6 pool without ever playing sc2 before. Bring back the 6 pool!
Just kill half your workers and make a pool.
Ah yes i love watching you play zerg cap
That laugh around 21:20 hahah, made me smile ^^
21:10 was SO SICK
Somewhere in the shadows, a hooded silhouette of Bly is laughing proudly

Fucking Brutal
Only thing that's missing is the mortal combat voice announcing Lingality
This IIIIII guy plays so many games, I see literally see him everywhere.
Thank you for the cheesiest man alive again, my favorite show on the channel.
This video makes me so happy. Harstem natural zerg
This was such an amusing episode
Today on the Bailings desk: gree goo explosions, mayhem, and melting marines. join us at 18:00pm
16:14 "start the speed immediately" - started 2s late, for no real reason... ;)
Wait, isn't this supposed to have a GG counter?
In Game 2, that overlord maneuver reminded me of a certain phrase used by a certain popular SC2 streamer-turned-political streamer.
hope you got the chance to do this cheese again! had a good laugh on this video
Heck, cheesiest man alive as zerg is sick! I was waiting for it for too long. How about revisiting the eternal classics of Bly proxy hatches, especially, variations of 3 rav rush in ZvT and 12 pool hatch block in ZvP?
The only youtube videos I watch on 1x speed lol
Hahaahah the second win reaction was so funny gotta love it
You're actually really really good as Zerg!! how is someone offracing seriously this good, OMG.

You play Zerg like I wish I could :D
That ZvZ ling bane control is absolutely crazy.
Really good episode haha
Swarmhost + Nydus 2-base. Like Rogue on Golden Wall
Feeling nauseous just watching it haha, wouldn't want to be on the receiving end lol
Oh GL in caps : NOW WE ARE TALKING lolll this fucking guy . I love harmstem !!
Go full Ketroc, its the most fun, spicy build a Terran can do!
Do some spine crawler rushes whenever you can ! They are fun to watch =) PS: Also do games focused on nukes pls :D
more Zerg plays plz i love it
Neural parasite a worker and build structures and units from it.
Just imagine a burrow speed upgrade for spines/spores and let them be carried by dropperlords..... all those new flavours of cheese
@harstem I don’t have the micro for it but do you think you could defeat a battery in the natural with 8-10 babes? The strat would be to put a couple on the unit at the gate but then use the remaining names on a pylon or core to make the hole? Perhaps soften the core with lings as required
I love your Zerg cheese! Thanks for the great video.
You got me laddering again after not having played 1v1 in like seven years, ever since day9 stopped making dailies. I can't play and talk at the same time, let alone in another language!
Harstem finally ready for GSL
Play Zerg GG
Dear Harstem, Zerg is...
They were not prepared..
7-0 cheese day wow, i love that
I was never too good at counting 😂😂
I'd be terrific to see some proxy hatch play.
Harstem you monster.
Pepperjack or sharp Cheddar? Or wait, what is Harstem's favorite cheese? 🧀
Had to go get myself some cheese while watching because of this comment
@@TheEvergreeni Lul
love the Zerg
Jesus, he never lost
Now you see how easy Zerg is
we need to go for harder zerg cheeses, maybe a muta episode?
can you make a video how to actually defend ling floods as every other race?
Alright I’m switching my main race lol
I use to play like this too but the sweaty shaky hands and fast heart beating plus ladder anxiety makes it soooo hard lmao
Why would you have ladder anxiety when you only cheese? You get a lot of easy wind and have the excuse that "I wasn't playing properly" if you lose.
@@rozmarinideas5340 because I need the wins and in some cases I get nervous mess up the build orders and lose up to 10 games in a row,I uninstalled a few months ago btw :p
@@MisterMike101 that's a pity. What do you need the wins for?
@@rozmarinideas5340 I was masters for 4 seasons and almost reached GM but no luck got nervous started losing and uninstalled xD
You seem to be enjoying yourself lol
I find zerg super boring usually but these cheeses are beautiful to watch!
You showed a match between serral and reynor where one of them did a proxy spine in zvz , has that become bad or could you use that build in your zvz ?
Could you try railgan's 3 roach pressure building with zerg into 2 base muta?
This is how every plat zerg plays :p
Welcome to Zerg gameplay. Just flood and inject and gg
warp in banelings Kevin :)
Your Zerg is fun to watch
I'd love for an update for 2024-2025. These sort of work, but are outdated.
Is it possible to access these replays?
I love watching you cheese
GG-counter?
16pool is valid play, no cheese !
there must be something inbetween cheese and metamacro. maybe lets call it goldplay with masterexecution ^^
sorry, n00b question, how does he add to control group #1 at about 3 minutes (goes from 18 to 21 to 24) seemingly without clicking anything?
When choosing units to spawn with eggs, you can add the eggs at the same time to a control group so when the units pop they get added
thank you o7
why 5200 terran so stupid, but dia not? you see late hatchery and stay on lowground? or not build bunker?
18:10 You JUST said your follow-up on 'ling flood was 2-base Muta. What are you doing? \o/
I really hate Zerg cheese because it never feels like it needs to be all that commited, like you can flood 50 lings and have 50 drones behind it with three bases.
That's you not understanding the game very well.
@@henningbreede6428 well, yeah I'm only Diamond, that doesn't stop all my opponents complaining that Terran is imbalanced whenever I do any damage, so I can complain about cheese.
So obviously you need to try Zerg main, my captain. It works for other European pro gamers!
Can you upload the game where Jannis crushed you with 2 base roach?
go next time 12 pool drons+3 spine, its imba vs hatch first. and 2th fake base ravager vs terran
Pls do hatchery cancel to spine crawler cheese
FINALLY
