400 Reapers vs 50 High Templar? What a mess

[@Tya.]

I hear you about the co-op units. I did a vid once for them but I might do more! Round 1 ▶ 50 High Templar vs 400 Reapers Round 2 ▶ 50 Hellbats and 20 Ghosts vs 25 Ultralisks Round 3 ▶ 325 Zerglings and 20 Lurkers vs 50 Stalkers and 10 Colossi Round 4 ▶ 50 Mutalisks and 10 Brood Lords vs 90 Marines and 10 Medivacs

[@52flyingbicycles]

Definitely co-op units!

[@Iuckycharm]

the real surprise was 4 high templars having enough dps to finish off a 5hp reaper with their auto attacks

[@gabrielbelouche3954]

Water balloons are OP blizzard nerf plz

[@jigokutsuushin]

I feel like the Stalkers blinking actually hurt them, as they exposed the Colossi and still got hit by the Lurkers' spines.

[@SeventhSolar]

The stalkers blinking made the lurkers constantly burrow and unburrow for the first half of the fight.

[@waterzoip]

yes because keeping them clumped up against lurkers would have worked way better ._.

[@Its_me_Stolas]

Doesn't Odin punishes them as well? Anyway, other units suffer more from blinking stalkers

[@SuperfieldCrUn]

Probably would've been better for a few of them to blink towards the Lurkers so as to get them to fire in random directions and only ever hit one unit at a time.

[@runtergerutscht4401]

The stalker blink worked to their advantage. The reaper explosive charge however actively screwed them over. They need to get in close and not run into the storms, yet their own charges make them run straight into the storms. Big L

[@jarrakul]

Honestly, given that the battles are designed to be at least somewhat close, and the resource costs vary wildly between opposing armies, I feel like the real story in these videos isn't who won, but what an even-ish matchup is.

[@Villiscaband1]

And how unbalanced the entire game is

[@GolemRising]

2/4. Reapers vs Templar was indeed a mess, bet on reapers and lost. I thought the colossi would be better against the lurkers than they were. The zerglings got wiped out as expected but the stalker colossus just could not get the job done against the lurkers afterwards.

[@flamerollerx01]

Yeah I think stalker blink was the absolute worst call for the AI, because it left their colossi unguarded. Stalker don't have good dps, but colossi do.

[@chinogambino9375]

@@flamerollerx01 Lurkers have 10 range and go through targets, you cannot guard the colossi with anything. Blinking over and around the Lurkers to divide attacks might have bought more time but its an unwinnable MU if the Lurkers just don't unburrow.

[@100nitrog2]

Templar are probably the least consistent unit out of all these matchups.

[@cyclonegaming443]

I was about to comment that then saw this comment

[@michaelmichaelsen3472]

1/4 today but that was some interesting matches

[@vasudeanguy8523]

I got 3/4. 1st one: I thought the Reapers would have a better chance, but the psi storm is just awesome. It was close though. 2nd one: Hellbats suck and Ghosts aren't so awesome as to stop the Elephant charge. 3rd one: While the enemy was polite enough to stand in a line for the Colossi, the Blink Micro actually worked against them this time, allowing the Zerglings to get in. 4th one: While Brood Lords play hell against Marines and Mutalisks isn't much worse, Medivacs make a hell of a lot of difference.

[@arkhaan7066]

I was betting on the broodlords as well, but as soon as the mutas got a little distracted by the medevacs it was over

[@dimitarlinov2393]

Assuming there is any amount of front line, ghosts wipe ultras in a 3 to 2 ratio or 1 to 1 ratio, not 100% sure if they have enough energy for 2 or 3 snipes. Ultras die to 3 snipes (510 damage vs 500 hp). If there were more ghosts instead of hellbats (and also them being a lot closer forward), then ghosts might have had a good chance to win. For the final one, no way can 50 muta beat 90 marines with or without medivacs. Now, if it was 117 muta without the brood lords, maybe muta would have had a chance. (10 broodlords cost as much as 66.6 muta)

[@Noaxsette]

Oof, nope ! Mutalisks are very bad versus marine cost-wise.

[@dimitarlinov2393]

@@Noaxsette muta costa only 75, compared to marine 50, does a bit more damage per hit (though lower attack speed), and has pretty much 3x as much hp, after stim (120 vs 45). Feels like they wouldn't lose by much if they do.

[@Noaxsette]

@@dimitarlinov2393 What, no ! muta cost gas too. I didn't play SC2 since a long time but last time a muta cost 100 gas 100 minerals. If you consider that 1 gas is 2 minerals, a muta cost 300 ! A muta is meant to harass an economy, not to be in the thick of a fight !

[@woadblue]

Nice this one had me like "oh shit I don't know" and mostly guessing, got 3 out of 4 though. Good fights! I also like the ones where you mix armies from different races. Good job mate

[@danielbedrossian5986]

The last was super onesided fight from the point the flying meat-wagen spawned in...

[@flamerollerx01]

1/4 I was NOT expecting the lurkers to win and thought surely there were enough mutas to hold off the marines from killing the broodlings and they would kill a lot more marines before they died. The templar were very... shocking!

[@MoonlitMarch]

3/4 my HT boys pulled through I knew the lurkers would do serious damage, but I wasn't expecting them to win. Also those mutas got eviscerated lmao

[@singlenator9138]

Stimmed marines with healing is always so good, love it.

[@Noaxsette]

stim marines + medivac will always be the king of battle as long as no splash is involved !

[@trassage]

If the Broods killed all the Marines, what would happen then? Medivacs and Broorlords can't kill each other.

[@alexhurlbut]

in an actual match the Broodlords would then move on to demolish terran base. Cant say same for the Medivacs trying to take out a zerg base by themselves.

[@JokeofAllButts]

first tie ever

[@SeventhSolar]

Then the broodlords win by default, I'm guessing.

[@enciorandomvlogs9694]

@@alexhurlbut The terran would simply lift their bases it would be a draw somehow

[@Xenobears]

@@JokeofAllButts actually there was one where the last baneling killed the last high templar in another vid.

[@chrishubbard64]

The lurker one I thought was doomed because they had to constantly unbury and rebury themselves. But that stacked dps they unleash is truly vicious.

OMG Lurkers are SO good they had managed to win even with those stupid unnecessary re-burrowings

[@capnandy462]

What would have happened if it came down to brood lords vs medevacs?

[@mcspud]

2/4 - Got rekt on ghost/hellbat vs ultra - Got rekt on muta/brood vs marine. Both of these surprise me

[@DrewMiller1]

Did the broodlings have attack and armor upgrades?

[@Xenobears]

3/4, so close. I figured that the colossi would do better against the lurkers, but the teleporting stalkers left them exposed. Figured that the high templar storms would shred the reapers. I knew that the ultras would shred the hellbats and tank the snipes. Marines with heals and stimpaks are the bane of a flier’s existence.

[@jackdaniel2438]

If there is one thing I know it’s that mutalisk never wins!

[@vespenegas261]

Hellbats are useless. Mutas not so much

[@momom6197]

[@Mephisto707]

No wonder Marine/Medivac is the most overpowered combination in SC2!!

[@Guo1234bob]

I’d love to see some of these with campaign units fully upgraded.

[@TomGalonska]

Well, 3/4... The rule "Never bet on HTs" has been broken. :D - I wasn't super sure about the Ghost/Hellbat vs Ultra fight... Maybe if the Snipes would've been used more effectively, hard to judge. - Stalkers suck against Lurkers and Colossi just tickle them - I was considering betting on the Marines without the Medivacs (i know that they wouldn't win without, but with Medivacs this was an easy call. Mut-Muts are not meant for fighting)

[@offirbaruch7895]

Noticed noone ever goes BACK into the barracks? :D :D :D

[@Toast_94]

3/4, lost out on the reaper fight, not even mad about that beautiful mess.

[@Observer29830]

Lets see if I can guess it right! 1) Uhh... I think I'll bet on reapers. Maybe their healing factor will help them survive. 2) I'll bet on ultras because hellbats always lose :c 3) I think stalkers will win enough time for Colossi to kill all the zerglings, and then they'd defeat the lurkers! 4) 50 mutalisks should be enough to kill marines before they could be healed, so I'm betting zerg. 1/4, wow I suck xD

[@veilnebula2411]

Medivac pilot: Eh.. why are you boys all wearing red shirts anyway? Random Marine who is covered in blood: girl what the hell kind of question is that we are all in red because we serve the Dominion Obviously!

[@unclenchasbestos]

3/4. Why did the ultras win? 3 uses of steady targeting per ghost should kill one ultra per ghost, i.e. 20, and then the 4th use kills the last five ultras, right? Did the hellbats fail to tank for all of 5.7 seconds?

[@winterFox2r]

3/4 - Hm… better than I thought. Round 1 - Guess: Reapers aren’t too strong when it comes to taking damage. Storms should be enough to deal with them. Result: Well, it was close, but storms did do enough and the Templars had not wasted all of them at once. Round 2 - Guess: Steady Targeting is powerful, but I don’t think it should’ve been Hellbats to tank at front. Marauders would do much better. Result: And… I was right. Not enough ability cast for Ghosts to deal enough damage to enough targets without micro. Hellbats do too little damage even in a splash to matter. Round 3 - Guess: Colossi should be able to do enough area of effect damage to eliminate most of the Zerg units, but it could come close due to the amount of Zerglings and the Lurkers. Result: Oof. Not enough damage overall to Lurkers. The Zerglings did their part, distracting and pulling fire long enough for Lurkers to deal severe damage. Round 4 - Guess: 90 Marines with Medivacs is enough to decimate this number of Air Zerg with this kind of number. Had a couple of memorable versus games with this kind of setup (approximate numbers, maybe slightly less or more) and even with micro, A-Moving marines mowed down everything. Result: MUCH better than I thought. Marines do mow down everything with enough healing support.

[@ltdzinger]

Tya loves ultras

[@tsundude4320]

1/4 Storms won? Impossible Thought the snipes would be enough Not enough stalkers...

[@CRXPTXCXCCXS_NXXFXRMXNS]

If Mutalisks focused Medivacs instead of Marines, maybe they would have won As Brood Lords cannot attack air units

[@supercoolguy43]

there's no world where 65 marines lose that fight on flat land I've taken fights like that with 50ish and still come out on top.

[@Santisima_Trinidad]

@@supercoolguy43 for a player, yes, but in this mode marines don't stutter step forward, so against longer range targets they get stuck behind the frontline and thus have zero damage density. Mut muts don't give them that problem.

[@supercoolguy43]

@@Santisima_Trinidad yeah, the lack of stutter step is made up for with 15 extra marines, which is a decent amount of extra damage

[@daddysempaichan]

2/4 Reapers would lose because the bound grenades would force HT back and make Reapers run forward instead of creating a concave. Ghost snipes didn't do as much as I've hoped. Lurkers man, Lings would've died too quickly to have much of an impact due to the Colossi but man are Lurkers tanky. Marines counter Mutas pretty well, ya know, but also if I'm not mistaken Medivacs prioritize healing units that are taking damage first, instead of healing whoever is closest to them, which helps keep marine numbers higher longer and thus more damage inflicted.

[@danhay2505]

Widow Mines vs Spider Mines!

[@seanwhitman8353]

3/4 on my score today Reapers vs High Templars with no micro is like throwing tomatos into a wood chipper This just demonstrates the point of micro. If you don't know how to kite an Ultralisk, you are going to get slaughtered Wow. Lurkers surprised me on this one. Thought Stalkers and Colossi had this. I was betting on Marines, and glad I was to be proven right, as the Mutalisks focused on the ground units first. Combine Medivac healing and game over.

[@Yapity111]

Man I can't believe the lurkers won. That was terrible strategy for them how they were programmed to unburrow and move forward into the line of fire. Really reduces the amount of attacks they can get in

[@cliffwood7386]

1. I feel like Reapers don't have enough HP to tank the storms. HT. Result: The bombs letting the reapers reposition nearly won them that one! 2. Hellbats might be trash, but they have a decent amount of HP that will let the ghosts do some work. Terran. Result: Weird, looked like not all the ghosts started sniping right away for some reason? In any case, Hellbats did NOT hold the line lol 3. Stalkers are just shields in this matchup, but with blink they're pretty good at it. I think the colossi will outrange the lurkers which is a pretty big advantage. Protoss! Result: I keep forgetting that colossi just... don't do very much damage lol 4. Fuck it, Marines! If they shoot the broodlings they'll win handily, if they focus the BLs then they might just get their ankles bitten to death before they can finish em off. Result: Close, but man with gun stronk. 2/4, gotta stop betting on colossi
