GuMiho's NEW Viking strategy is insanely strong! StarCraft 2

[@TheHalogen131]

13:08 look! That's a SUPER rare death animation! I've only seen this once. It's pretty fucking gruesome. The marine is already dead, but the actuators in the suit are still running, so the legs are running in circles on their own. Brutal!

[@6ixpool520]

Good eye

[@joshuapatterson3447]

Eagle eyes.

[@Therunner77452]

This is what I was looking for. This is what I needed to start my day. Nothing can defeat you after experiencing ur daily Winter cast

[@bigpapa1954]

Why are you still in gold then?

[@NeoN-PeoN]

@@bigpapa1954 Oh daaaaaamn, he made Gold? Impressive!

[@alexr.138]

My day needs either Winter or coffee to get started. Preferably both

[@ManDuderGuy]

We can fly higher than an eagle, but winter is the wind beneath our wings.

[@laytonmiller5865]

WHAT IS THAT DEATH ANIMATION AT 13:08!? Been playin starcraft since 1998 and NEVER saw that before!!! 😂😂

[@TheHalogen131]

Yeah, it's super rare. I've only seen this once when Jayborino first covered the Before Darkness Falls custom game.

[@JarvisValko]

"I need some ladder points. The season ends in 7 minutes and I need to get to the next rank: Diamond Three." How do you come up with these? Hillarious. Thank you!

[@thorclyde2604]

You are an awesome commentator my friend. I am compelled to watch your vids while i have never played SC competitively. Well done my friend!

[@Pedro38906]

Landing vikings may not be meta, but it's my favorite move in this game. Vikings are just so cool.

[@VenturiLife]

When they land en-mass you know it's getting real... the player has spotted an opportunity to wipe the enemy force with them.

[@michaelbuckers]

Landed Vikings beat Stalkers and Immortals, and they shred Probes to pieces like no other. You don't see people build Vikings for this reason specifically because the economics of it is not advantageous. Vikings are proportionally more expensive than Stalkers, and they're actually very slow even in the air.

[@Pedro38906]

@@michaelbuckers Do vikings really beat immortals? Aren't Vikings armored and take extra damage?

[@yugonostalgia8961]

@@Pedro38906 It's a wash overall, still worth it

[@michaelbuckers]

@@Pedro38906 Not really lmao. Immortals kill vikings 3 times faster than vikings kill immortals. But they cost almost half as much, they can fly, and you can bring tactiboys for repair. Fun fact: pulling workers off the line to repair mech units saves money compared to mining minerals and building more mech to replace destroyed units.

[@krustykill]

I couldn't help getting a little emotional at the end with you there Winter! You're an incredible caster, and I know that we haven't experienced the death of SC2 yet. Stay strong brother ✊️ I'm looking forward to whatever content you're able to muster!

[@Draeckon]

Honestly Winter, it's astonishing that you've kept this channel trucking along for as long as you have with StarCraft 2 getting so little support in a long time. Whatever you decide to do, you gotta do what works for you.

[@wolfross9254]

I got back into playing SC2 because of winter. And I'm sure I'm not the only one who's returned to this classic updated game. I hope blizzard pays winter for bringing in customers.

[@Twiixq]

​@@wolfross9254 Well, Blizzard don't give a s*** about sc2 anymore ^^, everything relay on the community, and our super rich arab from United Arab Emirates who keep spend money on sc2.

[@Mtvee82]

I haven’t played Starcraft 2 for many years, but love watching your cast on the daily. Keep it up. The mix of strategy and humor in your commentary is excellent. Btw, Protoss flavors depend on their starting color. :)

[@GrownByHand]

I absolutely love your intro, your quick wit, excellent puns, and fast paced casting. You are a legend.

[@drakethesnake4592]

Winter: "Please clap." Just for you, bro. 👏👏👏

“Go tell your friends what happened here” 😂

Thank you for getting me back into watching SC2. It has been years.

[@markvon9727]

for Jimmy! "North America and Protoss: like a unicorn, combined."

[@gradualpull2171]

That recall with the carriers on top of the bio ball was some epic play. The storms are almost mandatory to fight against bio Terran.

[@michaelbob937]

Winter have you thought of hosting your own tournaments to attract sponsors?

[@Zerachael1337]

That actually sounds like an amazing concept, I second this idea.

[@calmdownson]

Aye

[@Zerachael1337]

Watching Winter drink pixelated liquid is somehow exactly what I pictured fueling his shenanigans. 30:11

[@InputTANK1]

I played Sc2 when it first came out (bronze league hero), but stopped playing shortly after. During the pandemic came across this channel and been watching competitive Sc2 ever since. Thank you for the amazing cast of this amazing game and keeping us entertained

[@DashBlue]

Watched to the end, I'd love to see a bunch of low level games, some good ol' Bronze Leage Heroes!! Otherwise you might need to collab with other channels for small tournaments, or have special community matches where you set some kind of ridiculous rule that all the players have to follow

[@EstebanGamboaDev]

5k views -> 500 likes.... Com on guys we can do better! Winter always does it better for us!

[@EspacioInterpretado]

1:10:16 bit about the Disruptors..." as they are dangerous creatures to everyone involved...A double edge sword. Okay, grenade. Double edge grenade. So just a grenade👨" 😆😆😆😆 for fuck's sake im dying here his faces are so much hahahahahahha

Winter, I found you around a month ago, and I have been bingeing your videos since. I may not "like" the videos every time, but I always like the videos. Your casting has reignited my love of the game. I reinstalled it and started making my way through the campaigns again. Not to ramble, but you are AWESOME. My suggestion is below. ;) Would LOVE more "Bronze League Herooooooes!!"

[@toancaro]

20:25 ... and the GG-Ship 🤣🤣

[@Nuovoswiss]

In the gap in the pro scene, see if you can get replays from more amateur players with unique styles (Florencio, RuFF, known Masters/GM cheesers). Always love to see some weird builds and the opponents reactions/salt in response.

[@simplesudo6470]

To answer your question honestly what I'd love to see is more SC2+1 matches on backlog or new where available casted, especially from the tournaments Kiwian did where the pros and players really started to understand how to use the units in the format. The last 2 you did where I finally started to see SC1 zerg do well for some late game stuff were really cool! I know you had a lot of great SC2 pro matches but I was really hoping to see more of those mixed in between! This one was great, of course! Thanks winter!

[@Leo-pr7ly]

43:24 ..this is so epic and funny how the zealots pushing the archon into safety!

[@IRdatank]

"The Fleet Beacon. Tier 3 tech the only way to deal with this." Colossus that's been around for eight minutes: "Am I nothing to you?"

[@stalwart56k]

41:09 You know Winter has been waiting his entire career casting SC2 to trigger the Beacon's of Gondor twice at the same time! Some very interesting bi-tonality going on there haha

[@jessejames5452]

These casts have been amazing lately, and always amazing commentary. Thank you ❤ tactical mothership dunk was amazing

[@ascendingpotato9221]

One of the most exciting matchups I have seen and I have watched the channel for years.

[@ramchandranair2328]

[@yugonostalgia8961]

I've watched every one of his videos in the past 3 years, though he's only gotten funnier the old ones are still going strong, would definitely recommend going through the archive~

[@theculturedgentleman3699]

Now this was some GOOD starcraft! This is what i like to see. Two absolutely talented players going at it. GGs to Astrea for his brilliant gameplay.

[@andreasauke5724]

Fantastic matches! So fun to see Astrea in top form! Content suggestion: A deep dive into each player - perhaps some clips from different matches illustrating their style.

[@shawnyewest]

Amazing games from these two. Great cast, as always, Winter

[@moradagh983]

I'd love to see more 2v2s casted, bronze league heros style or just in general. It adds different dynamics to the game!

[@DeadlyGrub]

"Who proxies a tank!" That made me remember TB who shouted that during a game once... ah good memories.

[@tylerholbrook8634]

WINTER CUP WINTER SOCIAL WINTER INVITATIONAL All I could think the whole time you were talking at the end was why not throw your own tournament? It doesn't even have to be broadcast live or anything, private games but you cast them afterwards and do a full release on your channel. I'm a new viewer, but my life has been made significantly better having found this channel, and I want to see it, and you, flourish. Host your own series, these top players must know of you by now. When there isn't a clear path ahead, sometimes it's best to make one. Either way we'll be right here waiting!

[@gewinnste]

Today's advanced English class by Winter: "kerfuffle", "incantation", "shoeing" - many thanks :) Btw, did Astrea forget colossus range for the entire game 3, in which colossus played a major part?

[@Jimmy-vg8mu]

Thanks for sharing till the end ! sad to see SC2 is not looking good at the moment -- but hoping it will be back officially

Cast on point this episode!! So we'll done you linguistically genius Winter!! ❤🎉❤🎉

[@dewottgaming1507]

honestly, even if you start playing custom campaigns and stuff to fill the time between tournaments I'd still watch it. there are quite a few awesome and/or challenging ones out there like mindhawk's challenge gauntlet for WoL or LotV. maybe also give the meme campaigns a go if you wanna have some laughs. would love to see it. so far no rts has managed to surpass starcraft 2 and until that happens I'll be here and watching people like you, PiG, Grant, Harstem and all the other content creators who keep this game alive and fresh for the fans.

[@wheelwrightpl9429]

Some of the best Protoss micro I have seen recently !

[@jonsolo32]

That mothership usage was very impressive. Well done.

[@lightdx7008]

Astrea is really good at flanking his opponent. Really deserved this win.

[@RustyFoundry]

Astrea is such a fun player to watch. Loved the mothership recalls

[@griffincoccari9396]

Tough to hear, but solace is we'll still be able to watch winter in his next adventures.

[@Limewire1984]

Ideas of what I want to see: Mortals, non-pro, playing the game. Could fill up some gaps for you too.

[@natecw4164]

14:11 Might not look like much but I see that as a Protoss, I'm getting ready to GG. Jesus Terran is terrifying 😂

[@Nivek57]

I come here for your commentary, idc if you have to start commentating the weather. Actually I think I'd enjoy the hell out of Brenda giving weather updates.

the world of warcraft music in the background i love this lol

[@Paladin314]

That thumbnail killed me

[@davidscolli8165]

Fantastic! GhNiho and Astrea the Last American Protoss hope! Two of my favorite players and why Starcraft II is still the best RTS game out there. By the way after watching several videos on Stromgate I'm not super excited about it anymore. What are your thoughts/take on Beyond all Reason and ZeroSpace?

[@kaiser2261]

Winter *watches uncounterable F2 a move carrier army easily decimate everything* Winter: ghosts OP amirite

[@arvedpittner9782]

Hey Winter love your content really I have been following these casts for a couple month now really enjoying the commentary I even tried actually playing SC2 (this is a very outragous claim I know) but gave up after 3 rounds when my old laptop literally failed to properly function running SC2 lol. I remembered why I stick to youtube then. Anyhow I noticed that we had a couple of 1 day breaks in between the videos now. Was there an announcement I missed that the schedule switched to once every 2 days or so? My feeling is this new schedule started exactly after the crazy Game of Clem just steamrolling Serral (This was entirely based on my emotional wish for more SC2 now checking the facts there are simply 2 videos "missing" in 10 days) ... Now of course the theories abound if that's connected somehow lol :) I would be very happy for an answer (but I believe you do not answer comments anymore^^) so maybe just mention it in a video? There is always plenty of time to fill at the start after all. What I'm essentially trying to say politely: HOW THE FUCK DARE YOU DEPRIVE ME OF MY DAILY NEW CASTS???!!! EXPLAIN YOURSELF OR GO BACK TO MAKING DAILY UPLOADS! Really, reallly Thank you so much for all the great entertainment you produce, by pirating and repurpesing the very livelyhood of poor/rich e-sport nerds, for me (and some other people too I guess)! PS: I wrote that comment at the beginning of the vid thats crazy timing, that the exact video I decide to comment you explain at the end.Thanks for the infos Winter!

The number of times there's a base trade and the terran just doesn't fly their stuff away is astounding.

I hope there are more tournaments as a ex-player I would say it brings joy and is a nostalgic moment for me.

[@neonsocks6010]

Would you consider casting old but standout games? For me it's just the love of your insights and humor you bring to your cast and watching amazing high level play.

[@Eisenbrei]

Hi Winter! Thanks for the all the vids. I watch you because you are an awsome caster, not because i am so interested in Starcraft. So even if you start casting other games, like Stormgate or BAR, or go completely crazy and do something wierd like casting baseball or some shit like that, i will still watch your videos!

[@jimmyha1898]

Dear Jimmy, Since we're entering SC purgatory maybe you could find some old matches for Winter to re-cast? Not sure if that would be possible but maybe he could use the old video and give us some fresh new commentary. Thank you 💜

[@TechRoll123]

I know there's a good reason why you are not doing the show anymore, but since you're asking for suggestions, I really like the angry coach series ^^

[@kicknitoldskool]

I love me some bronze league heroes would love to see how the Very Old Men specifically one very old man often featured in the metal leagues are struggling. I know when I play I'm struggling, detonating my own banelings instead of morphing more, losing dozens of workers to basic harass, forgetting buildings, staying in games I have no business staying in, leaving early in winning positions and just generally getting distressed, it's hard out there

[@colinfraser7150]
