for soo many years how was i so blind not see the OPness of the Hivemind Emulator. Great video man!

[@DaveyGunface]

They're soooo good. Char is so trivial with them, I think it's the only way you can kill all of Kerrigans bases in All-In on Brutal (which makes the final cutscene incredible)

[@Anolaana]

12:46 for discussion of the HME, Davey doesn't use em before char!

[@keneecalderon9715]

Me too.

[@keneecalderon9715]

That was an amazing challengue. Congratulations.

[@Guardian-of-Light137]

As a protoss main back in broodwar. Mindcontroling enemy units is always OP especially when it ignores supply limit. (It was better back then cause if you mind controled a drone and SCV you had 3 entire armies at your disposal if you had the patience or need to set all that up.)

[@apipek]

13:57 "Your forces are under attack!" The adjutant means the zerg, since you control so many of them, activating the artefact is basicly destroying your own army.

[@fulldisclosureiamamonster2786]

Kerrigan: *Clears the way for Jim's dropship to pick up the artifact then has hydras guard the dropship* Also Kerrigan: "Damn! I forgot how resourceful Jim was." But jokes aside these only keep getting better. Gonna do the same for the other expansions?

[@DaveyGunface]

These ones I actually do think could be interesting. I didn’t want to do HotS or LotV no units/buildings, because 90% of it would be Kerrigan / Spear of Adun spam, and stalling for energy or health. It really wouldn’t be fun, despite how many people ask for it

[@Guardian-of-Light137]

That just makes me wonder. Could leading zerg to your stone zealots be a new strat?

[@marley7868]

[@userasdf]

Supernova makes perfect sense. If you let the fire kill it, the area is way too hot to retrieve the artifact. If you kill it with banshees, you kill it a split second earlier so your guys can get the artifact and get out while just being singed

idk if it is the mic or him being younger, but i never realised how different Davey's voice sounded like in this video

[@DaveyGunface]

It was a combination of being younger, the microphone, mereadingmylinesstupidfastbecauseiwasuncomfortablerecordingaudio, and on that note just feeling very uneasy and making tons of mistakes while recording. Not that I LOVE my voice now, but everyone absolutely despises hearing their voice for the first few months/years of creation and eventually they just grow numb to that feeling :P

Apparently the Hive Mind Emulator also makes zerg immune to the artifact's energy nova

[@DaveyGunface]

The Hive Mind Emulator is completely broken. The second you have ~20 of them up, and Rapid Fire hotkeys, you basically can't lose. It's actually pretty easy to just kill every Zerg Base that way too.

I watched this video while singing the great anthem "United forever in friendship and labour, Our mighty republics will ever endure. The Great Soviet Union will live through the ages. The dream of a people their fortress secure. Long live our Soviet motherland, Built by the people's mighty hand. Long live our people, united and free. Strong in our friendship tried by fire. Long may our crimson flag inspire, Shining in glory for all men to see. Through days dark and stormy where Great Lenin lead us Our eyes saw the bright sun of freedom above And Stalin our leader with faith in the people, Inspired us to build up the land that we love. Long live our Soviet motherland, Built by the people's mighty hand. Long live our people, united and free. Strong in our friendship tried by fire. Long may our crimson flag inspire, Shining in glory for all men to see. We fought for the future, destroyed the invaders, And brought to our homeland the laurels of fame. Our glory will live in the memory of nations And all generations will honor her name. Long live our Soviet motherland, Built by the people's mighty hand. Long live our people, united and free. Strong in our friendship tried by fire. Long may our crimson flag inspire, Shining in glory for all men to see."

[@DaveyGunface]

We've talked about this challenge before, most of the time he jests that he'll do it if I do something like Deathless or all achievements speedrun. In all realism though, it's just not possible. Too many missions like Maw of the Void or Supernova have positions with units or terrain that wouldn't be possible to get through without the help of the starting units. I did go ahead and rechange the title since there seems to be some misconception with it.
