[@toadman1092]

6:15 as someone who has studied starcraft modding/unit behaviors, Siege Tanks and Goliaths use a different AI attack behavior than other units. I think this behavior is supposed to be for upgraded siege tanks to calculate when/where to deploy into siege mode. Without the upgrade, they bug out and move command into death, they'll occasionally stop/stutter to fire a shot and constantly re-target different hostile units. I would bet that the AI on this map wasn't given the siege mode upgrade by default/wasn't told to upgrade it/hadn't upgraded it yet and the deployed siege tanks in the mission were manually placed.

[@Geesaroni]

If I remember right from way back in the day, Terran 10 is the first mission where enemies actually have access to siege mode.

[@ScBroodSc2]

In SC1 one thing that makes a bigggg difference with sc2 is high ground advantage. A ranged unit on low ground shooting something on high ground will have 50% miss shots.

Full Circle is a Zerg mission - your thinking of Eye of the Storm. And you may be able to, but it would be rough since you need to keep Zeratul and Gantrithor alive and they start off in the Protoss base which gets attacked pretty quickly - you might be able to sneak them around the sides of the map though to secure them behind the Terran base and then Marine from there. I think the biggest difficulty would be in killing off/destroying the buildings and units that can attack on the Protoss side before the first Zerg assault comes in, which juggling Gantrithors/Zeratules movements in a way they won’t attack anything or die, and while ramping up your Terran economy.

The fact that in episode 4 , the first macro mission you get 3/3 archons... yeah protoss was a joke. UED and episode 6 were occasionally challenging, but you inspired me. You beat UED with marines only, I did it with 5 APM and marine-medic. Did you know 1 marine and 1 medic can beat a bunker with 4 marines? crazy shit.

That was a wild one. For To chain the beast, you can sacrifice a few raxes to get to Red's high ground, land, defend the position with spawns and shoot down the defenses from below once secured. Then, after some creep is cleared, you land a rax to the the low ground to slowly crawl into the cerebrate. Its much more efficient that way, but probably not as fun as throwing 500 marines into the cerebrate lol

Flash would have been able to beat sc1 with only marines *oh wait*

"Task Failed Successfully" needs to be an achievement name in StarCraft 3 😂

This video is how generals Gerasimov and Surowikin together with defence minister Sergey Shoigu would play SC-1.

[@SmallzSC2]

Hey I saw a video of yours. I am subscribing soley because you don't beg for it. Keep up the fantastic work!

[@CaptainEuropa98]

Yes, he has a ton of my respect for that, also he does his best to release 2 videos daily on his archives channel

[@Micheals64]

Really cool to see that the enemies in the Stukov mission become allies

[@jaythompson5102]

Human wave tactics are against the Geneva conventions man! Seriously great video, I really enjoyed it as an old school StarCraft player.

[@superZvegetto]

The fact that you didn't try to block Torrasque with medics or buildings, let alone not use marined bunkers and still win the game was most satisfying.

[@StellariumSound]

Alright, you're pretty good. Have a sub for the editing and the great deadpan.

[@firesturmgaming]

The one pretty major challenge with SC1 marines is that they suck DPS wise. And that zerglings in SC1 are actually pretty tanky.

[@DireLizard]

When you walkthrough the Emperor's doom, it almost feeled like Warhammer 40k. 700 marines dead, thousand are wounded, holy moly!

[@NineNoRouge]

Been watching these on your second channel. Soooo glad to see this.

[@kittelwatne3527]

I love the pauses you do before each pun.

[@mironsamokhvalov9323]

3:37 wait, you’re supposed to clear the infestation? I just built a lot of dropships hoping the one with Raynor is not killed

[@silencearts33]

This thumbnail is absolute gold ✨ clicked as soon as I saw it, I loved this series

[@notbanditatall]

I like the capions or timestamp titles, its most definitely worth the time you put to make them!
