Clem faces the RANK 1 PROTOSS! StarCraft 2 Finals

[@brettstarks1846]

“A shrine to Dark.” 😂 He is the greatest player according to Dark.

[@Schnittertm1]

I also heard that he is sometimes in the himself.

[@LucianDevine]

An absolute master class, especially game 1! That bait at the end of game 1 was BEAUTIFUL!

[@oORyodanOo]

MaxPax almost loose if the Terran still alive!

[@fuffybear6865]

@@oORyodanOonot really, maxpax had a whopping 1700 mineral lead by then but Clem had nothing. It was a true Hail Mary by the Terran, with the faint hope that he could at least take the base to have a glimmer of hope

[@COD8player4life]

Thanks for casting, have been watching your casts on and off for a while. Your banter always puts a smile on my face

[@adrenaline98]

At this point I fall asleep to three to five Winter casts a night. I’m almost back to 2022. My girlfriend uses my YT account and when she saw my “ Watch next” playlist of 50 winterstarcraft videos, she just shakes her head in disbelief a 44 year old can enjoy this.

[@Zeuskabob1]

28:50 MaxPax going for the medevac knowing Clem would keep picking up the cyclone if he didn't clinched the match. Even if Clem hadn't killed the cyclone in the medevac there, he was still dead. The dodges were his only chance to live, and MaxPax was fully aware.

[@izaakkemp8938]

The last time i was this early, Clem was playing protoss.

[@AlacrityTW]

And Neeb was playing terran

Last time I was this early, Clem wasn't playing.

[@TysonJensen]

"The map is dark and full of Terrans." lol. I know I know, you say it a lot, but I am simple minded and always find it funny.

[@MrNotesofmusic]

He’s Terran them apart is up there too.

[@MWTravesty]

Every time I see someone playing against Clem I wonder why they're not going directly for the medivacs in every exchange. It seems MaxPax finally figured it out lol

[@adrenaline98]

It’s especially difficult as Protoss since all your attacks are projectile, so hard A clicking on the medivac likely generates a lot of volley wastage that is likely only possible for the very top players. I think it’s much easier A targeting banelings for marines since it’s hitscan and just jumps to the next target given marine firing speed during stim. Watching maxpax individually blinking stalkers is truly beautiful to watch, compared to someone like Hero who, while incredible, usually blinks in clumps.

[@dunmatta2670]

That first game, using that disruptor as bait to target down was so slick.

[@UrielAngeli147]

Between that and the DT runby killing the planetary... absolutely masterful

[@LucianDevine]

I LOVED that bait at the end!

[@eduardoavila2845]

Winter is by far the best caster/commentator in SC2, the right amount of funny and knowledge. Good job Winter!

[@ZC.Andrew]

Maxpax really needs a card update

[@adrenaline98]

He should have a similar card, if not better than Maru (the current Maru) at this point.

[@christopheleddet2830]

If he plays and wins offline tournaments sure

[@ZC.Andrew]

@@christopheleddet2830 Why would that be a requirement? Is dominating Clem - the world champ who 7-0'ed Serral - not enough to earn higher #s?

[@christopheleddet2830]

@@ZC.Andrew Once again, it's online. If Maxpax does the same in front of a crowd fair enough. But so far he proved nothing, only that he is a very good online player.

[@ninjabreadman22]

Maxpax with a masterful display of the double Ds of destruction. Disorient with Dark Templar using blink. Then deliver a devastating deathblow with Disruptors while the terran is delirious with rage.

[@matthewclark7955]

Honestly, been watching your videos for a decade. Keep it up mate, by far the best sc2 youtuber

[@brycerasmussen2331]

MaxPax treats his stalkers like gold. Masterclass micro making the best use of his units.

[@adrenaline98]

Maybe I’m delusional here, but honestly it feels like Clem isn’t really trying/showing his hand (builds) at this point. This isn’t to discredit maxpax at all, who is clearly the cleanest and best Protoss in the world and who I feel could beat any current player of any race. I’m not sure what these tourneys are worth but I’d imagine after winning nearly $1m in money, it wouldn’t surprise me if he took a more Serral approach and just use these weekly tourneys to keep up his mechanics.

[@Lost_Hwasal]

That disrupter bait was *chef’s kiss*

[@bobscuttled3579]

I didn't realize the her0 vs Dark I watched earlier was from yesterday, so now I get to see a 2nd WinterStarcraft cast today. Xmas in November

[@nlsaiyan]

I think this is the first game that I see a pro protoss wining a game against another pro. To be honest the micro and macro of maxpax was clean af but clem made some critical mistakes like getting destroyed by DTs and loosing medevac with ciclone inside that I hope not to see often, 2nd game was just perfect from maxpax nothing to say watching that kind of level at stalkers micro made me feel that maybe, just maybe we can see nice protoss matches in the future. What I would love to see it, this and watching more mOOtalisk games vs terran from zerg pros.

[@JG-ti7id]

32:21 "he's just going to do a cyclone drop?" "who does that" "now build the fusion core..." roflol tytytyty winter as always ty for your hard work and dedication!!!!

[@JojoDaYoyo]

I like your casting lol

[@IngensViator]

Wow, this is Protoss battle I fantasize. Back and forth all the way instead of waiting for late game.

[@sircristosterone1950]

Back in 1999, in high school and the most beloved "drafting" student of my teacher, I asked him "would you mind if some friends and I played some games on these computers during lunch? He had no problem with it and I began playing LAN SC. I lost 2-3 substantial years of my life COMPLETELY addicted to the game. I would fall asleep at night thinking about how I could fine tune builds, counter certain aggression, be the best. At some point, I thought I was "the best", that's where college and Koreans come in. HAHAH, Long and Tan taught me, very quickly, that there was MORE to the game than I have previously though. Interesting cut short... I think MaxPax will become the greatest of all time. Shout out to the INK clan

[@izaakkemp8938]

What an amazing showing by the man of mystery.

[@Blizmb]

[@mr420quickscops2]

Damn that was an intense battle

[@JurijLasic]

Well played with the bonus game, I actually looked at the length of the video to see if that's a proper long series. Got tricked here sir, but I do not mind.

[@Madlaxy]

Can't understand how protoss despite always having economic advantage early in the game always has army advantage in the same time.

[@adr2t]

Every other tarren has it, I mean, why not just give protoss colsi the ability to target air with some type of weaker weapon as well? It has way too many counters anyways, at least softten the counters would help at least make it a unit that can last more than just a window. With that said, vikings way too way too good of unit really. Along with the fact that toss just doesnt have much ground units that can shoot air.

[@scarletspidernz]

How does fire work underwater?

[@SusansoSusie]

There's lots of fires that can burn underwater irl and this is sci-fi, so, y'know. Funky materials/munitions

[@psykhecreativa]

[@cathulionetharn5139]

Thank You Om nom nom

[@AJ-fe8ml]

did you need that? Well... denied! 🤣

[@The_G_Way]

First time I have been first comment! There is a reason you get the most views out of any Star Craft 2 casters, your energy and word choice and animations are so great! Keep it up Winter!

[@TheSimianDeity]

When casters can so confidently say thing like "Protoss will always lose an engagement to Terran without a supply or tech advantage" it should be obvious the balance is fucked. Just watching the difference in DPS between 20 supply of Gateway units and 20 supply of Barracks units should set off alarm bells. Protoss has some neat tricks, but every pro sticking with them is essentially playing from a massive inherent disadvantage.

[@SD-jf7nb]

The asymmetrical balance in SCII is the 4eason it's not boring sometimes nobody wins.

[@feeko2239]

You’re not updating the scoreboard Winter

Is this a reupload, I feel insane. Ik I've seen this but I don't see it listed under Lowkos Channel.

[@versavices3776]

People always say Protoss is easy but Blink/Prism has a super high skill ceiling. MaxPax is insane

[@LucianDevine]

And a MASSIVE penalty for messing it up. The pros make it look easy, but if the average medal leaguer tries it, it goes disastrously.

[@willnash7907]

What the hell? This isn't about MaxPax outperforming, Clem was running units into melee and misclicking drops. I guess he was really sick that day or something lol.

[@DrewSeef]

awesome!

[@elgar7252]

Wait, guys! You mean Clem is actually beatable and his Terran isn't a guaranteed unbeatable Imba balance complaint!? :O However will the Zerg hivemind complain when Clem keeps losing...

[@U2befantom]

Remember when Clem swept Serral and everyone said he was washed up? Pepperidge farm remembers.

[@nathanbennett1735]

I don't think anyone is saying Clem is washed. He was clearly deviating from his normal strategy

[@MrVeryfrost]

@13:20 no skill DTs blink "master class".

[@Leonhart_93]

Considering MaxPax's precision with the map control and those blink stalkers, he definitely feels like the best player right now. Probably only the lack of power of the Protoss tools held him back for so long.

I love how Winter’s new titles are all “Clem loses to [new strat/newly buffed unit]” bc in truth, Winter hates that Clem is now in a league of his own & Serral can’t touch him. Even with the new massive ghost nerf, Serral isn’t winning any more major tournaments unless Clem sits them out 🤷🏻‍♂️sorry big dog
