Love that bit about learning about Prussia. They had a reputation for being extremely martial (a leftover from being founded by ex crusaders) and the Kingdom of Prussia would be the one to unite and create The German Empire, only to be toppled a couple decades laters during WW1 One of the big what ifs of history will always be if Prussia survived

[@FalconPaladin]

Truth! Major what if!

[@chuckytronicx]

Welcome to high school 2004 world 🌎 history class with Ms. White 😹. How old are these children???

[@EbeeDeeby]

Marines dropping into the Zerg base is kinda like running up to a big wasp nest and whacking it with a stick

[@thecurbdog123]

Today's Broodwar Fact. Dropships say "in the pipe 5x5" This refers to old radio calls from world war II era and are still used today in certain situations. When you're receiving a radio signal you give a quality rating and a power of the signal rating after you receive the first message. These are on a scale of 1 to 5. So 5x5 is equal to loud and clear whereas 1x2 would be barely readable. I'm a captain on a ship and we still use these today. It's specifically for long-range radios. So when the dropship says in the pipe 5x5 she's basically saying that she has received your message loud and clear.

[@MrBmnmtfk]

It's also a starship troopers reference

[@klas666]

What does "in the pipe" mean, then? I read that "the pipe" refers to a visual representation of a vessel's route on a screen, so the message is "I am well on supposed route" or something like that

[@besthsq]

@@klas666 Interesting. So the whole line means "I'm on route and I read you loud and clear"? You don't get this kind of voice line anymore. Before this explanation I thought the dropship pilot was telling the troops to be loaded into "the pipe" in a 5x5 formation or something.

[@klas666]

@@besthsq I think so, I'm no authority on the subject, but it sounds plausible

[@thecurbdog123]

@@klas666 so the "in the pipe" reference is to let the person know that you have some sort of signal being received. And that part isn't official that's just kind of some slang that was come up with between the radio jockeys at the time. Because there are other sayings like "I got you on the wire 5x5" that were also used and are still sometimes used.

[@FreddyVizzel]

The term "fog of war" was first coined by the Prussian military theorist Carl von Clausewitz in his book On War (Vom Kriege), published posthumously in 1832. Clausewitz used the term "fog of war" to describe the uncertainty and chaos that commanders face in battle, including the lack of clear information about the enemy's position, strength, and intentions. This concept emphasizes how difficult it is to make decisions in the confusion and unpredictability of combat. While the term originates from 19th-century military theory, it became popularized in modern times, especially in the context of video games like Warcraft II (released in 1995). In these games, "fog of war" refers to the limited visibility of unexplored areas on the map, which enhances the strategic element by hiding enemy movements until they are scouted.

1:26 Falcon Paladin musings about the Fog of War 16:57 "Or a fire, batman" 18:05 Burrow is such an underused Zerg ability

[@rinscheida]

Ahh Flash vs Jaedong, the best TvZ there is. Flash's record on the channel goes to 102 wins and 57 losses

[@TheRealDa-xg7km]

2 hours ago? Flash vs jaedong?? Lets go! Jaedong is my favorite player

[@ДмитроМанжур]

Я думав, що за п'ятнадцять років, я вже бачив усі протистояння цих двох найвеличнійших гравців. Але, саме цю битву я бачу вперше. Автору респект!

[@klas666]

Я так понял, это свежачок, так что ещё повидаем обоих пап в деле 🤘

[@coltonbranch7305]

The drones are like “we’ll fight you!! Raaaaaaaa” so funny lmaoooo

[@Peixing404]

The contrast of JD's attitude in the two games (vs Flash and vs The Rock)lol🙈I sometimes got confused when Falcon said Flash was doing some zerg things🤪 Maybe it was a long day for Falcon. Please take care!❤

[@cynthiacrescent]

the reason some zergs go for low ground 3rd base is because it's better against drops and can randomly dodge a scan

[@FalconPaladin]

Hmmm, fair enough!

[@MrBmnmtfk]

Your reading of the game is off the charts Falcon

[@dongwonderful16]

The way you say “plaguuuuee” always cracks me up 😂

It's PLAGOOOOO, I'll have you know

[@davidramtjarn7766]

Glad to see jaedong won a cool game for once lately!

[@jimraynor6159]

6:20 where you asked why zergs started taking the lowground base on 4P Maps - according to Arty, it's to have an easier time taking the fourth base. If you'd take the highground base first, you might not be able to set up the natural as your 4th that easily with tanks and what not besieging.

[@-Nick-T]

the curse?.. is it back?? stay tuned!

[@Classic_DionysuS]

You take the natural as a 3rd so you have a garuenteed protected 4th.

[@GringoXaba]

Think 3rd base at natural, not low ground. Then the entrance to the main (4th) is already covered.

[@lockelaton287]

These guys playing, automatic epic.

[@aldousbrawndo996]

I don't care if terran wins or loses I'm just happy to see battle Cruisers

[@Zyzyx442]

DMATRIX+RESTORATION BC LETS GO!!!

[@Overgis4058]

HA! I KNEW IT! I've been saying for SO LONG that BC's belong in TvZ. I got a couple questions about my choice to go BC's in my game against GoneRogue that i casted on my channel, but no one wanted to listen to my reasoning.

[@FalconPaladin]

At least on my channel, the winrate for BCs vs Zerg is like 5%. It's rough out there.

[@Ziegfried82]

​@@FalconPaladin I think it's a waste to just make 2 BCs most of the time. At least Flash used D matrix on them and did a big drop while they were distracting. The BCs seem to do a lot better when more than 2 are made.

[@tereninsecundus6084]

Make 4 or more of them. Give them Yamato-cannon. Have them come over and supporting the infantry push when YC is done and energy exists for at least one shot. Eliminate the sunken colonies with the BC's, use D-matrix to shield them form scourge and spore colonies if needs be, then push in. The BC's target-fire priority targets infantry attack-moves so they swap to attacking ground Zerg or scourge etc. and like this the line "WHERE IS THE AIR SUPPORT!?" in a specific cinematic is properly answered: Above you, doing their job, instead of messing around elsewhere to die alone because lone BC's are easily countered. Oh, and you want to be REALLY funny? Have medics with restoration, so when the plague hits the BC's, remove it. This keeps them healthy, this keeps them able to punish mutas, to eliminate lurkers with scanner/Vessel support, this keeps them able to nuke ultras faster when they come in, this helps on everything, you can even yamato the ultras, it's well worth the energy spent. I really, really don't get why pro's never do this. I've not seen ONE game Falcon has cast where this was done effectively, but I recall one where the Terran player had wraiths overhead along with the infantry to do all this just with bigger numbers of invisible units.

[@baotranxuan6440]

Ôi đáng thương 2 chiếc tàu bay.

[@TheInverseable]

Its kinda amazing terran ever actually win agasint zerg, they spend the entire game pinned in base lol

[@Bovine_Slime]

Imagine if you had fog of war with allies in broodwar

[@GreenGuyWoo]

We need Flash and Jaedong vs 6 other people😂

[@323wallyman]

that was so even.. then it zerg swarm just took over lol wow

[@user-qadsfasdfasdf]

flash is an old man, he only know to use Marines

[@Acrillian]

Amazing game

[@mubeenafzal]

Do players know who their opponent is in ladder games? e.g. does Flash know he’s playing against the dong, and vice versa?

[@collincollar1398]

For the algorithm

[@Yobtvmt]

FINALLY XD!

[@plink2336]

woahh

[@kerajel]

Not sure who a fire batman is, nice game though

[@bathoi79]

Why terran player don't use Tank 2 side main base?.

[@narcirvalor2718]

flash did'not now what do again carrier or Ultra...

[@sanaebeast4485]

Nearly all top TVZ proved that BC vs Ultra is a such bad decision.

[@Overgis4058]

@@sanaebeast4485 maybe at the pro level. But if youre making decisions in platinum based on what works at a high level, you might end up hurting yourself. Pro's depend heavily on skills lower level players dont have, so saying what doesnt work for them wont work for us is a little backwards.
