At 39 years, I don't even make it to the 3 beers any more. The hangover headache starts *while* drinking after beer #2. Enjoy your diminished capacity before it erodes further 😅

[@petercarioscia9189]

24:00 im about to be 40. I had to stop drinking entirely tbh. At first i just stopped going out on weekdays...but if i drink too much on a friday, I'm still frazzled by monday. Part of that is i can't just have 3 beers, i get buzzed and it always turns into a rum and coke nightmare. I'm a bit if an alcoholic.

[@jadinstevens]

Just the idea of putting an ultralisk in an overlord feels so cursed

[@gamezoid1234]

Imagine how the over lord feels about it

[@ermbenguin]

bgmwss where at least half your run-by's are hallucinations. so you can either do, for example, a run-by with 4 hallucinated zealots and later do a run-by with 4 real zealots, or you could have your run-by's be 2 real zealots and 2 fake zealots.

[@Billbarker57]

At the risk of sounding like an idiot, I am 42, and I had 5 beers for New Years and I still haven’t recovered fully. Youth is wasted on the young.

[@slutmonke]

I just turned 40 this week. Yes drinking and staying up late gets harder and harder to recover from, but there are some tricks you can do so that you can have 3 beers and stay up till 1am and be mostly ok. The main thing is to drink a lot more water at the end of the night before you go to bed. Drink two pints of water before bed and if/every you have to get up to pee in the middle of the night drink another glass. If you stay up until 2am or later make sure to have a light meal before bed as well so that your body has some fuel to recover with--a couple oranges can work pretty well.

[@JFox4587]

“Otherwise they just camp forever and it becomes very difficult for me to do things.” Welcome to the plight of playing as Zerg. “I’m up a two bases and can’t break my opponent” is a trivial statement these days.

[@dougsnyder440]

I turned 40 last year. I can drink like a fish still, I'll throw down 12-15 beers and a few shots on a weekend evening most weeks and be fine. The key is to drink lots of fluids, light beer and good tequila. Also a sauna and cold plunge the day after and eating clean through the week is the key. But 3 beers in an evening?? Cmon that's just a waste of time, gotta pump those numbers up Captain!

[@shaunavalon843]

I'm heading towards 34, I really plan and prepare to have a few beers. Like, will the event be over before 22:00, is it close to my house, can I uber easily. Do I need to do anything the next morning, etc. and like, hydrate a lot, make sure I have adequate food, and that the path from the front door to the bed is clear of obstacles, and stuff like that. It's fun to go out, but drinking a lot becomes not so enjoyable.

[@ninety56]

[@isufan89]

Bro the hangovers hit so much harder the older you get. I used to be able to drink every day and just get up and eat something and be fine. Im 34 and if I drink during the weekend it takes me like 4 or 5 days to feel like myself again

[@tree_eats]

Cheeky little ultra drop, lmao. Would pay to see this in an ESL final.

[@yoshitsuneminamoto9470]

next episode, build 5 nydus and use it as forcefield

[@oOOoOphidian]

the question is, which overlord is the ultralisk in?

[@HsDLScorpioHD]

Catz

[@miza6]

i’d love to see you do this again but with just a couple queens as backup. because the ultra has so much armor, each hit point the queen heals (initial 75) is way more valuable than any other unit. plus their durability will let them take advantage of the additional +50 heal over time.

[@Alex-pq2fv]

15:13 bro what is this music i didn't know starcraft was a horror rts

[@Reddisteddigo]

SC1 zerg music, which is more of a horror game than SC2

[@calebstimpson4412]

however, this song is from SC2 - I believe it is “The Hive”

[@SouthAfricanWanderer]

I'm 42, and the advice i would give you is that the recovery time increases exponentially through your 30s and you will reach a tipping point where it is not diminishing returns but rather negative returns in that you spend more time recovering than you actually spent out on the town and enjoying...

[@brett2themax]

I drink 1 beer every day. 3 beers gives me a hangover. Turned 39 13 days ago

[@timothydavis8388]

Always like to drop a like and comment to get the KZbin algorithm going for you, you deserve it!

[@wowscortcher]

Almost 40 here. Compared to your 30s, you don't drink beer anymore. You drink wine now. And the next day feeling is the same. Good news is that you're now used to this and you optimized so it doesn't affect you that hard. You know when to pop a pill, what to drink, eat, patch and you don't go out for another week 😅

[@mariuszdziem8203]

[@mynickisjal]

How cool is starcraft with little to no air units and spellcasters? It becomes so more action packed, balanced and risky. Without area damage battles last longer, and without air tactic, positioning and strategy have much more value.

[@RecOgMission]

45 here. I don’t drink (hate the taste) or ‘party’ (not the type), but I can still go with 6-7 hours of sleep a night for extended periods. Exercise does take way longer to recover from, though!

[@EatPezzzz]

Turning 50 this year and I've never had a hangover in my life. Take care of your body and it'll take care of you.

[@michaelf3745]

Hey man. I know you didn't ask for this (well, you technically did) but... I'm not exactly 40, I'm 38. As an alcoholic of 2 decades what you have to do is eat pasta before the drinking then hydrate while you drink. What you want to do is not breathe through your mouth when you sleep, because you will dry your mouth out and your body will move hydration toward your mouth and that's not the key because your brain's exterior cellular barrier needs that hydration to not cause headaches. You can avoid this by either just sleeping with your mouth closed or.........well.........sleeping with your mouth closed by taping up your jaw. I know that's the same thing, but it's really a pivotal contribution to not hating life in the morning. I felt the same thing you did since I've been drinking for so long. Though I've been a functioning alcoholic for far too long, I also don't want to act like this is proselytizing to people that they should drink at any age. You should obviously just......stop. The pros of drinking through my life are heavily outweighed by the cons. I've been down to $10 and chose to drink. Please seek help if you're in a similar scenario. I hope things get better for you. Take it easy, Captain. $30,000 dollar jackets of insulation due to Captain Morgan aren't good brags in retrospect.

[@abyrvalg_]

Don't drink beer, drink cognac slowly, warm it and drink it with lots of lemons.

[@tobiaskarlsson7565]

I'm 45, and immune to hangovers and lack of sleep for the last 3-4 of them.

[@tomwilson9736]

Recently turned 38. I think it's highly variable person to person. I haven't really noticed much of a difference but I make sure to drink plenty of water in addition to the alcohol when I go out.

[@k3llym0]

I think all your missing is defensive lurkers sacrificial evo chambers corruptors and burrowed drones -- the single ultra drop doesn't do alot of damage to any thing but probes and pylons. Once the probes are gone you should try to air lift to base 2 rather then loose the ultra for free if possible -- did you notice the ultra get 8 kills with one attack? because the probes where stacked up tight? what helps at home is lurker evo spine spore -- as supposed to mass lings by them selves at home. Ultralisks also have the health pool lurkers need to dps longer, and have a higher threat priority then lurkers do, which means units like immortals will focus the ultras first based on range and threat -- giving lurkers more time to burrow micro -- even if 2 or 3 ultralisks die the 10 lurkers behind can finish burrowing without loosing half of them. I also think your not burrowing drones enough -- I know you loose mining time but I think in the long run you will gain minerals and larva based on less drone replacements. This was a trick used as far back as the starcraft1 days. Simply burrow drones when oracles come around, oracles are too fast for drones to properly run from its silly, or when zealot run-bys happen, without an observer they can only attack the hatchery, and then un burrow them later when its safe. Holding position them does help in the battles against zealots to protect spines thats for sure, but hold position sacrifices their dps too. so in some examples its might be better to attack move the drones when the dps is tight and the fight is close rather then hold positioning -- especially with zerglings -- zerglings do not have a high enough push priority to push past friendly drones on hold position, and it will hurt your zerglings against ranged units like stalkers -- and is better to attack move the drones instead, against ranged units. Lastly, I think you need more evolution chambers on your flanks -- to plug the gaps between your extractor and your mineral line -- with the spines inside the mineral line and the evo chambers blocking the gaps -- you can defend longer against smaller zealot groups -- the evolution chamber is cheap and has a high health pool for its cost and adds bulk to the meat of your base -- spines are semi squishy and only have enough health to last a tiny amount of time without transfuses -- but evo chambers are basically free when you are floating 2.2k minerals and are exactly the thickness needed for the tentacle to reach over them and hit units just Infront of the evo chambers. Place spines tight to the hatcherys northern western and eastern sides -- as to not block larva -- and place evo chambers Infront of the spines. This is similar to the way multiplayer humans in warcraft3 would place towers tight to the town hall and use farms as a wall between the towers and the enemy. This combined with defensive lurkers and spores should be all you need for the void ray zealot harass. The phase prisims are really hurting you too, forcing your zerglings out of position for a long time. perhaps a trio of just 3 or 4 corruptors to get air superiority over your own base again as well, keeping them home, rather then just relying on giant zergling balls under the phase prisims. remember you can split your over seers as well, and use the multiple nydus net works better, by placing your nydus net works simultaneously all over the place, in every base, rather then together in a clump.

[@BBJones93]

Was it laundry day?

[@dem0nicist]

Almost 40 here, and I'm here to confirm that it does not get easier. Recovering from a hangover keeps getting more difficult. However, you will learn what your body tolerates well and what it doesn't. Beer and wine are both terrible for hangovers. Hard spirits are generally a bit better. Drink lots of water. Consume electrolytes. You'll still struggle if you drink, but it won't be as impactful. Glhf.

[@antonskundrotspravieniskis1188]

how did you were more cost efficient in that last game lol

[@SuperNhodge]

It's not you getting older it's you not exercising like you did when you were younger. You can turn back the clock with exercise.

I see ULTRALISK, I click.

[@TordStromdal]

48 years old here. It's not getting better. It's only getting worse. Fortunately, the standard build order includes spawning underlings, which results in zero beers. Unfortunately, they also result in zero sleep, so you'll never feel rested until late midgame or early lategame. Of course, you can choose to play non-standard build order, however that usually result in the game being single-player only. Also, you still can't drink more than one or two beers without taking serious hull damage. Shields tend to completely disappear around 30-35.

[@dogfoot1874]

40 here. It depends on whether or not you wake up drunk. I've slept the night before about 7 hours woke up and blew .10 BAC and felt perfectly fine. In your case it might be because your not a heavy drinker but yes as we age you might get to the point where the juice isn't worth the squeeze. For me personally it isn't worth it but I do it anyway

[@Mollock]

At 40 you just need to stop drinking all together. Takes too long to recover. 25:40

really 2 ultras in an overlord was just too op no one could deal possible snipe a flying unit with no attack and slow speed. yet 8 marines yeah thats fine plus give them healing and require almost nothing to make them. also might as well give the ships healing. oh wait ship is still vulnerable better give that bad boy some boosters. when did this nurf happen...what a joke...

[@2019inuyasha]

maybe we could make them take 6 slots so you could load a couple lings or drones.

[@JFox4587]

I think if you can fit two immortals, you should be able to fit two ultras. Ultras are definitely a worse unit in so many ways, you really need a buff to their movement somehow and dropping them on the enemy could be a really fun way to see them played, otherwise they are a tier three unit that just keeps getting kited to death.

[@enriquegarciacota3914]

I mean I get you, but have you seen the cinematics? Ultras are essentially mountains of flesh. Only one Thor fits in a medivac, only one ultra in the overlord.

As a 26, almost 27 yr old that’s been in the army for 8 years. I can comfortably speak for all 40 year olds and that at 40 years old if I stay up an hour or 2 too late. The next day WILL be horrible. Secondly if I consume any alcohol the next day too WILL be horrible. Stay young captain. 🫡
