Mengsk, in lore, is an absolutely brilliant tactician and probably one of the most intelligent characters in the Starcraft universe, easily standing at equal with beings who are canonically hundreds or thousands of years old. He's an absolute beast to fight against in any mission where he's the player's enemy, putting up the best defense a Terran AI can do. (pretty sure Duke is your opponent in True Colors.) SC2 Mengsk didn't happen. He never happened. Mengsk never changed from a cold intimidating badass into a deranged Colonel Sanders.

You almost certainly could beat that one 'ling only. (Similarly, there's a Protoss mission in the original campaign where you get a Terran base.

[@RoyalFusilier]

I'll never forget the intro of SC2 Zerglings Only, where you had Stukov describe Zerglings as "They are the ultimate weapon of the final war." I think about that a lot. Also, You needed that beacon from the Helms Deep UMS maps that would just send all your military units into the enemy at once, which was the primitive version of the almighty F2. Even without it, excellent job on this run. While there were a few rough patches caused by your own rules, that's a big part of the charm, and it honestly didn't seem like this was any more taxing on you than marines-only. It shows how the two starting units are at least more equivalent in Brood War. Zealots-only, from what little I saw, uh, let's just say I'm looking forward to that one.

My god, you make zergling only look EASY for some of these! Like it’s the way Zerg was meant to be played, or something! (#Swarmling-Reconstitution-is-awesome)

Your challenges are sick really, inspired me to go through all Starcraft games once more. Alongside Mass Recall mode for original

[@DeCode343]

Very cool video, love OG star craft broodwar. Keep 'em coming! Also pls give us a minute more of zergling slaughter on missions like korhal :))

[@dinodude722]

[@Regunes]

That tassadar moment is hilarious. Also those time stamps

[@TheSpectralFX]

Man, I wish one day I can be as cool as that one siege tank with 2 kills from "slay the beast" What an absolute legend ruining all that planning you people did.

[@PulsatingNipple]

Damn this is good content

Mengsk on Omega really went for the Artosis strategy of turtling until 200 supply xD
