[@Deto128]

I wonder if what happened here was that the Zerg really thought that Terran was finished and so they didn't really focus on eco-ing up after that initial successful attack - instead kept thinking they could just finish them off with another push until they realized it was too late. Terran recovered back up to 60 scvs really quick while the zerg stayed on 45. Happens to me a lot - I often underestimate how hard it can be to finish off a Terran.

[@ddenozor]

To think that instead of taking out starport tech labs, Zerg could destroy fusion lab that was researching yamato at the time with his roach ling attack... With no money and no SCVs, terran would be stuck with 2 BCs with no yamato guns for a long time.

[@chloesmith4065]

Yeah agreed and then this gives the zerg time to get a spire

[@OpiatesAndTits]

Queens can dodge Yamato by jumping into a overlord, nydus, or by burrowing. I don’t know about the other methods but burrowing actually puts it on CD which is amazing. I think it’s totally worth the gas and hatchery time if your opponent gets Yamato. You can also pre burrow your drones. They either waste scans meaning less mules or they can’t kill anything.

Dodging Yamato with burrow feels so good

If you have a 20 minute game, and you don't get to hive, you may be doing it wrong. A good rule of thumb is to get spellcasters at every level: queens, infestors, and vipers. I often skip infestors, but you need some aoe vs swarmy boyz like mass lings, marines, or zealots.

[@Merumya]

came here for an IODIS. Learned during the first 2 minutes, that harstem seems to believe queens are imba. guys! get on the case! Submit IODIS forms about queens!

[@PenguinIceDelta]

I don't think he thinks they're broken, but due to zerg lack of reliable anti-air in the early game they're too relied upon. They're zerg's macro mechanic. If Zerg's macro mechanic was hatchery based it would be very broken. Injects would essentially be 2 key presses for all hatcheries (select all-hatchery control group > select inject) vs 4 per 1 hatchery (camera > select queen > select inject larva > select hatchery to inject). Zerg macro mechanic needs to be mobile for creep maintenance, so they have sufficient warning to react to an incoming attack (react race). If you remove the queen something would need to be provided that can fill its role sufficiently as a hatchery tech anti-air.

[@OpiatesAndTits]

The 2 base roach wall off is a build made by vibe for his bronze to GM. The idea is that you block the hellions especially at lower leagues where you can’t handle them as well. It’s sort of his catch all build for metal league zergs looking to get better. It’s not at all meant to stop a reaper. So this is a little dishonest. Now I want to be clear he isn’t executing the roach wall off build perfectly. Pretty sure you only get 1 gas in the main lol and you only take two more gases once your nat is basically droned and your ready to build your safety roaches plus start your +1 and roach speed (lair taken with first 100 gas). This build provides a sharp roach timing of like 14ish roaches that kills alot of zergs but many other lower leagues players.

[@haste953]

This is not complaining but actually giving advice for low leagues...also a bit of rant. Worked for me should work for everyone below plat. 3.5k and he plays like a clown. Don't mind the skill but if you're seeing this and you think it's imbalanced then it's like getting cannon rushed and thinking it's broken because you don't know how to counter it. Most build orders have a key part of it though If they watch Harstem so much they should at least have a high understanding of the game unless they watch to have it in the background. He explains everything, shows everything, shows wins and losses, plays everything, talks to other pros, explains low elo, explains absolutely everything there is to know about SC2 and the core mechanics you need to learn. If you watch all his videos for at least a year and you play diligently, reviewing your vods to see what you did wrong instead of playing, saving the replay and sending it to IODIS, you would be able to climb up extremely fast. It's not about playing a lot, but about playing a lot WITH BRAIN. How many times has cheesiest man alive won with stupid strategies or beating grand master with stupid stuff. Even macro games with standard build orders can be won with just the right units and a functional pair of eyes that is paying attention to stuff like idle workers, creep, chrono boosts, control groups. Not everything is imbalanced, if it were Lambo wouldn't be so good at the game and someone like Clem wouldn't be able to drop 3 bases in 1 second while 2 armies are in your third and fifth base. Also a good technique I used back on 2016 to learn the game when I started is that I only played VS Ai starting from the easiest then to the hardest BUT I ONLY could turn up the difficulty if I managed to beat the AI under 6 minutes. This meant perfecting my macro while trying to use advanced micro techniques at the same time. It wasn't easy but it worked, when I started beating the most difficult AI extremely early without any mistakes while feeling confident I went to play ranked as soon as I could and won everything except my last game where I got cannon rushed which I didn't know how to beat then. I used to watch a fuck ton of Lowko and someone called Dragon I think it was back then. I learned so much about the game it became easy to rank up past gold then I stopped playing the game for Rainbow Six and Overwatch. I started again when I discovered Harstem and it's the same story all over again. Now I don't play as much but low elo is not hard. Some people play worse than the hardest AI and also having a custom game with 2 hardest AI helps a ton I almost forgot to mention that. For beginners and people trying to perfect the build order this is it. Not spamming games and complaining, build your foundations first, learn about the game, if you're so keen into playing it so much that you complain online then this is nothing if you really want to climb. Starcraft is a game of player vs player, you have complete control of everything that happens, if you lose it's your fault, it's as easy as that. If you were playing team games it's understandable, you would have to be so good to win more but in this case I don't understand, are the iodis submitters not thinking? Do they not watch all of harstems videos before claiming they're "a big viewer" and sending IODIS? Do they not pay attention to their vods? Are they uncapable of making reasonable decisions with a bit of brain behind them like not go lings against BCs? I've learned so much from watching these videos in the last year and a half that I'm still shocked when I see people on 3.5k mmr making these bronze mistakes. Of course I know not everyone has time to play a lot or watch a ton of videos but if you're submitting to iodis or rank roulette you CLEARLY watch videos and play enough to complain about the game's balance, if you're still bronze/silver/plat and you complain about the game's balance which means you're not having FUN which is the most important part of it all, then I think it's time to stop playing the game and switch to Minecraft vanilla for a while to calm down. Not on hard mode though or else you will think Skeletons are broken and imba and you'll send a message to Bill Gates asking for a fix. In the end just have fun, think while playing and review your mistakes as hard as you can. Don't play just for the sake of it. It will not help your mental state. Believe me I used to play League of Legends haha
