08-09 MST Grp 12 Set 1: Light v Tempest

[@TurnaboutAkamia]

If there are any Dragoon pilots that deserve to be seated in an Immortal, it's that one.

[@SaviorSwords]

It warms my heart to have this game in a HotS reference! Truly legendary stuff.

[@JeiShian]

I didn't play hots. What's the reference?

[@wilddara2792]

@@JeiShian Old but Fenix got added as a dragoon references this with a qoute "Never underestimate the strength of a dragoon. With just a single shield battery, one dragoon can defeat an entire terran army! It's true, look it up" if you click him enough

[@neerGdyahS]

@@wilddara2792 Maybe that one dragoon secretly was Fenix.

[@Deolrin]

I DID look it up, Fenix. Love the attention to detail from the HotS team. :)

[@HerrProfM]

One of the most memorable games. I just couldn't believe it when I saw it the first time. And still having trouble to believing this in 2017!

[@SmugLookingBarrel]

so this was the dragoon that turned into that 45 kill immortal from the hero vs zenexlife game...

[@brandit1540]

XD yes

[@ItsRayBTW]

Rewatching this for the hundredth or so time. Ah the beautiful memories... I really do miss these guys.

[@vibingwiththewind2889]

best dragoon ever hyped for LotV dragoons

[@whatjamacallit]

that goon killed over 1500 minerals worth of units

[@omgLordLituslol]

I can't believe I missed this match... I've been watching religiously but somehow this one slipped by me absolutely awe inspiring goon micro... and winning the game without finding your opponent's base is just amazing

[@Draffut2003]

"I don';t know if there is any way Tempest can come back, but who knows, maybe he'll surprise me" That he did sir, that he did.

[@joakimeen]

best game ever. best commentaries ever (Klazart, Cholera, Moletrap, Rise and Diggity. I will probably watch these commentaries in 10 years :) .

[@pontussamuelsson4003]

Here after 8 years 😂

[@kalorathekau]

33 kills! "Hero Goon" or "ManGoon" sound like understatements! I'm not sure there IS a word to describe the epicness of that Dragoon! This had better be a pimpest play!

[@johnnygao4993]

sadly, we don't see enough of this epicness in sc2

[@imESAM]

Reach may have Manlots, but Tempest has GODgoon

[@ItsRayBTW]

Rewatching this in 2012 for the nostalgia. I miss these guys... :(

[@Noth1nx]

This was almost like watching warcraft III game where a lvl 6+ hero destroys a whole army. Godlike game. Cheers on the awesome dual commentary guys, keep up the awesome work.

[@MrAndersonmm]

I had to come back and re-watch this game. So glad i could find it. So freaking pimp.

[@SindarinElealar]

@TonyJ93 Basically, Shield Battery is a building with energy; the energy recharges shields at an amazing rate (though unit being recharged can't attack while it happens). Often used in low economy games to empower your small armies, and lategame to go "over 200 supply" with mobile high shield units (generally Carriers).

[@xredvortex]

HOLY shit man that was insaneeeeee. the freaking timing on the range was like perfect. was done as the pylon went down. pimpest play of 2009 and its only the 1st week. hahaha

[@randombutler]

Take it from a guy who has never played Starcraft multiplayer but has a decent understanding of the game basics: this is fucking epic micro.

[@DiscipleHonsou]

Excellent Cholera and Rise commentating again, really like your joint commentations guys, please keep them up.

[@artty132]

cholera and rise = the best dual commentary in Starcraft commentary history!!!

[@4ristotle]

There's not much to say beyond, "Wow." Without a doubt, that deserves a star billing on the next Pimpest Plays video.

[@ZkilfinG]

This is why you should never give up no matter how hopeless it seems. Epic epic epic!

[@randombutler]

Literally the last time I have actually played Starcraft was just messing around with the level editor at my friend's house sometime in the late '90s! I just started watching pro play a few days ago (though I'd seen a few Boxer videos before).

[@VanorstusTV]

people still watching SC1 in 2014 :D

[@jasonokane4848]

Nostalgia. (Look at those old computers haha!)

[@ZGGordan]

+The Odd Pyro 2016 xD

[@electronus97]

2017

[@EdisonArias]

Came in here august 2017

[@TheSweetSpirit]

2017 woohoo.

[@Tor-Erik]

Fenix: "Never underestimate the strength of a dragoon. With just a single shield battery, one dragoon can defeat an entire terran army! It's true, look it up."

[@MrAitAliProductions]

Wow - that was the most EPIC comeback that i have EVER seen in the history of PRO gameing Literaly Awesome :D!!!

[@BeggarSyu]

This is probably one of the best comebacks iv seen. This and Firebathero's comeback against savior.

[@edenite]

@justadued nah the colours of each race change from cyan and red and vince versa. I found out that they change spectator views which explains it. :)

[@d0lphinsafe]

Cheese refers to a recklessly aggressive strategy in the early minutes of the game that aims to catch the opponent unprepared and is usually an all-or-nothing gambit by the attacker.

[@calm87]

that dragoon and the shield battery were like cholera and rise

[@trigunxvash10]

"33 kills Dragoon....PIMPEST dragoon in the history of starcraft!" Cholera is awesome! LOL

[@arthainius]

That is one of the most unbelievable games I've seen Ive seen in a long, long time, props to Tempest. BTW does anyone remember the IntoTheRainbow game where his reaver got 55 kills?

[@asl2g4u]

At 10:54, when Light saw the second dragon, I bet the way he felt must've been how the Persians felt at the end of 300, when the 10K Spartans showed up.

[@SteelManJ]

@1979Tron a cheese game is one where an opponent will rush very early on as to stop the game for going to long (generally done by weaker players with less apm)

[@DrPepperPower87]

gg actually means "great goon"

[@chrisbary]

that's top five pimpest play for 2009 already, i love dragoon micro

[@velociper]

on of the most amusing games in a while

[@ckyisyourfuture]

Usually it's "h" to hold position, as it causes a faster attack rate with most units than a-move itself.

[@pianomikey0]

God I love cheese. Win or lose, I LOVE it. Brilliant play with the batt.

[@artman40]

Mangoon backed up with shield battery and probes makes an awesome game!

[@puk3rz]

check out Tempest vs Lomo if you wanna see another crazy cheese game... I think he has a few others aswell

[@coldinfusion]

HOLY FUCK that was the most epic comeback cheese game EVER and ive watched SOO MANY STARCRAFT GAMES

[@gameboyredpee]

best goon, EVER!!! "i have returned, WITH VENGENCE!!!"

[@Senatorpaulo]

Holy crap that goon was made of freaking adamantium...

[@kalorathekau]

Any combination of Moletrap, Rise and Cholera is epic ^_^.

[@crorens]

it moves to first person view to one of the players, he sees colors different than the observers do

[@EebstertheGreat]

No, it was July vs. NaDa. At least, that's the one I was thinking of. It's one of the Pimpest Plays that Cholera cast. Anyway, obviously the best Terran anticheese is Use Your Illusion; what was I thinking?

[@hi19hi19]

Even Reach would be proud of that dragoon.

[@thedavidcake]

Tempest got range after the second pylonn powering the gateways warped in for about 7 seconds, enough for the research to finish.

[@ItsRayBTW]

I miss this combo soooooooooooooooooo much... :(

[@the_slick]

wow! tempest just earned himself a new fan

[@PhilippeMusique]

very good game, i like the match up for those dual commentaries :)

[@cloudie88]

That goon was absolutely SICK!!!

[@rippa86]

that was one of the best games i have ever seen. wow Great commentary to :) that is one mangoon lol

[@CodeZero34]

What I don't get is why Light didn't split his marines into 2 groups to prevent the dragoon from dancing. Especially near the end when Tempest left to go find the proxy - send a couple marines north or south and get behind the goon.

[@rupang886]

That goon, dubbed "Man-Goon" became one of the first legions of Immortals.

[@leakingpear]

I totally said it when he did well in GomTV classic 2, him and hoejja are the future of KTF!

[@mauricioroche6067]

In here becouse of the heroes of the storm fenix quotr

[@jiGGyboy77]

DAMN!I WANT THE REPLAY FILE!!!

[@tejntanga]

Tempest's MAN-GOON! Number 1 Pimpest Play of '09

[@CentsOfFate]

Spoiler Spoiler This game has to be nominated for a Pimpest Play. That is some SICK Micro. Hero ManGoon for the Win!

[@EebstertheGreat]

If Bisu vs. Pakju was the best Protoss cheese ever, this is the best Protoss anticheese ever. I haven't decided for the other races yet, but I guess the best Terran cheese was BoxeR's SCV rush, and the best Zerg anticheese was the drone counterattack. (Was that July?)

[@JakeGittes84]

There is a Protoss air unit called Tempest, so I doubt it

[@unihumi]

It still is an awesome VOD!

[@mrsmi1ey]

HOLY MOTHER OF GOON. that was frigging epic.

[@ItsRayBTW]

hey just wondering but what are the timings for bbs (barracks barracks supply depot)?

[@mmpsp693]

A Mantoss went down and came back as a Dragoon to fight for Aiur!!

[@barbahaba]

i think we need to make a place for a 7 dragon if he keeps this up

[@mechwarrior13]

WOW this is what sc would look like if it was a rpg!!! that dragoon probably had lvl 80 full epic t9 gear and a legendary disruptor canon!!

[@TonyJ93]

@SindarinElealar thanks!

[@TakedaKenshi]

Cholera　is the best god damned announcer in history. Fucking love that guy.

[@ChAoS9779]

Spoke too soon, you guys said it right after I posted X[)

[@nathones]

thanks for the hard work guys

[@7DarkTemplar7]

game three of the flash vs bisu in gom was SO EPIC

[@JeepTerran]

My faith in dragoons has been restored...

[@Caesar512]

a battery! now that's thinking on your feet. well played.

[@justadued]

@edenite you mean when they got into first person view?

[@Spenfen]

There is blink, though...

[@xodarapi]

Shield Battery FTW! my new favorite structure.

[@CyRxJustin]

Yeah but there's also a Protoss air unit called Phoenix and a Protoss hero named Fenix.

[@therocks1682]

i wonder if something like this wold be possible in SC2...

[@playerexe8129]

1 stalker with blink maybe? but i havent played SC2 in forever

[@Anomen77]

The Rocks They are going to add shield recharge to the Nexus and change the damage and attack speed of stalkers to be closer to the dragoon's, so yeah. It'll be possible.

[@uberkidx]

don't u all c it? Reach was actually piloting that goon with a remote somewhere and man-gooned tat victory!

[@ItsRayBTW]

I miss this duo... =(

[@junwithgod]

wow this one was the craziest game since 2009. I think the guy made a big mistake by not being close enough to the Dragon after the range was upgraded.

[@vladkama]

2018 Phoenix.

[@StickGuy0000000001]

starcraft classic game love it, those guys a sick players

[@jackal327]

if light had positioned the bunker more to the left, he would have won this game was awesome, it was won on the tiniest details that's why SC is so AWESOME!

[@ijuka]

That was Fenix, the manliest of all Dragoons.

[@obiyer9224]

So much heart! T^T

[@Lucifur666]

That goon may have had 32 kills (I don't count the one after gg) but that shield battery totally had like 25 assists!

[@messitup]

that was a fucking MANGOON! lol, i love this amazing comback, and Choleras so called Mangoon

[@DILDOBITCH]

Jesus, that was an amazing game.

[@ZergrushEddie]

Without a doubt, that should be a Pimpest Play. I don't even think a Carrier usually gets to 33 kills...

[@ImNgamer]

I don't know if a Goon Hall of Fame exists, but if it doesn't yet, I know who should be the very first entrant!

[@Athos90]

Look at related vids on the right: "Cholera fatalities "rise" in Zimbabwe" LOL

[@newphew92]

no way man, it was the shield battery!

[@JaredK511]

You guys are all praising the goon (which was absolutely insane) but the real star of the show was the freakin' shield battery! Without that Tempest would have been long gone.

[@crispen1151]

That was awesome. Finally, a mangoon.
