In team games, a gg after 2/3 of the enemy team left usually isn't an offensive gg, it often just means "good game". People in team games (and lower elo 1v1) often mean it when they say gg.

[@OniByFame]

Hahah when Thermy says: "hey guys" Pig is like "oh boi, here we go again....what crazy plan is on agenda today marc?" 😂😂

[@Joe_Joe_Ultra]

Marc what i do to remember opponents' races is to remember the *color* of the *random* -- i.e. in your game 1: "blue - toss - toss." This way you know if you see a blue unit, you know instantly that it was the random. Alternatively, on the traditional method, "random - toss - toss," if you see, for example, a blue probe, you have to verify if blue was the 'random' player. You're the best! cheers ~

[@moneygrab610]

In larger team games, early pressure is really valuable because 1) it gives time for your allies to set up and 2) the opponents might overreact, putting them behind but still on the defensive.

[@ThortheGodly]

Game 2 terran player pushing early disrupted enemy team which is very valuable in team games. A lot of people (like me) are often unprepared for a very early push like that. Its a gamble, but the 4racks gives you enough production to snowball quickly if you manage to pry an opening. If one player loses his workers and ragequits then you often win right there, the rest of the match is just cleanup.

[@Stevintage]

yah, and sometimes if the push is dangerous enough, their whole team tries to help and that slows their entire team while your teammates are playing normal. Just gotta hope the other team just doesn't decide to make a huge army and come and crush you while you're temporarily down a player 😂

[@xeruexe1624]

I think it's more confusing in 3 player mode because your random mates will be asking, "Is he talking to me?" Or maybe expecting the other guy to do it instead. In 2 vs 2 your team mate knows he or she is being directly asked, so they can agree or veto it immediately.

[@Leshi4]

I never played 3v3 with humans, but aggressive proxy barracks strategy seems solid to me, even without any consolidation with allies. The guy did put on some early pressure on opponents, probably forcing them to invest in the army supply earlier then they had planned.

[@whateverppl1229]

19:22 in a 4v4 with my friends, we massed units, I made nothing but zlots and just kept attacking bases with waves. one terran made widowmines so they couldnt take map control very easily, the other protoss made archons and the other terran made marine / tank to ensure we dont die to the enemies marine / tank (he was our best player so we usually made him keep us alive so we could do dumb stuff)

[@MsHojat]

How much minerals did you mine in that first game though? I was curious. There's less patches to mine from, and on top of that the mining time and building time is subtracted at the start.

[@fredchar2386]

you should play 2v2 or 3v3 with a known teammate and play really weird strats: -2-3 zerg for MASSIVE one attack banling; -toss + zerg for only mêle units; -3 same units only (marines, queens, sentry, etc). Really nice idea team games!

[@MattBraynardChannel]

What makes the gold patches worthwhile enough to do that? You saved a few SUVs in the long run but lost the time you could have made them by flying your base down there.

[@phillgizmo8934]

Yeea, Thermy brought some new fresh stuff as mostly. I've been thinking about new perspectives of competition too and it came up to this idea: Make competition of beating the Coop missions as fast as possible, two teams of gm players start the same map and the timer, one team beats the map - it's GG. Spectators have to watch both games at the same time though, but why not, I'd enjoy that. I'm sure there are charts of the best times of coop missions somewhere, but this idea is to see GM class players compete by choosing the unit comp and sync the abilities and crazy micro. Adios

[@Sidicas]

31:25 when his teammates leave, game is pretty much over so it is not bm in a 3v3 to gg after teammates leave because it is the only time to gg.. People usually leave when their teammates leave.

[@LaTeX657]

@uThermal Arranged Teams still have to go through placement - correct. However, your combined MMR for solo teams is averaged. Example: Serral is Gold and you are Diamon (realistic assumptions) in solo 2v2, but when you team up and do placement matches your then average MMR will fall somewhere in Platinum. Your first placement match should be vs other Platinum players and your other placements can then scale from that initial point. If two Bronze solo players team up, even if they win all 5 placement matches, they're unlikely to get a party league above gold. Same for two top Master 2v2's can still get Master's after losing all 5 placements.

[@somestoopidgruntohtreelevin]

Love the Illaoi reference. ...could you invent a build/strategy called the muscle mommy in honor of this? 😂

[@jimdelsol1941]

For those placements matchs, maybe 4v4 because you'll start low, do a drone rush into mass drone, and drone drop harass them. With your micro i'm pretty sure you'd win like that with 200 drone army in the end.

[@alesjaterka2155]

Yo, uThermal, you can build one CC in the middle of the rocks and mine all bases at one time. Don't waste 800 minerals on two other CC'c.

team games are officially my favourite to watch

[@TheFavorite95]

gg when 2/3 of the enemies have left and game is over is probably ok. "wpgg" might be nicer. In LoL during the final few seconds before the nexus dies or the surrender vote triggers the end, gg'ing as the winning team is fairly expected and mannered. maybe thats a game culture difference, but it could also just be a team game format difference.

[@mikeballew3207]

[@worshaka]

I find your random team game content highly entertaining. The 2v2 has been better, my guess is with 3v3 the extra communication becomes difficult so people tend to not engage in it. Not to say this one wasn't enjoyable but the 2v2 content was highly amusing.

The population is much lower in multiplayer modes. When you play solo, there might be only 10-20 grandmasters online at a time. When you search for a match, only 1-5 of them are also searching for a match. IE: there are only 1-5 fair opponents in 1v1 at any given time for you to play against. This is proven when you match against the same guy 3 times in a row. Now reduce that grandmaster list to 0-5 GMs playing 2v2/3v3 modes(total)...and you only have 0-1 fair opponents searching for a match at the same time as you. which means you are going to get matched against whoever is next highest and searching for games at that time. Diamonds, masters,, platinums.

2v2 relies the most on the team working together, so that probably works best for this format. of course, i still appreciate the experiment, but in 4v4 these strats are an ancient tradition from day9's funday monday, and 3v3 isn't that different. in 2v2, it's more important (and therefore also easier) to get the teammate on board, otherwise you just win the 1v2 or 1v3 at this level, which isn't really the point.
