StarCraft 2: FLORENCIO Is Feeling Gouda!

Florencio is back with other crazy strategies in StarCraft 2. Hiding Starport production with a lifting Factory. Landed Vikings inside of Medivacs. Massing Thors and Tactical Nukes. And a whole lot more.

why is there a city named after cheese

[@edstirling]

nah nah, it's named after soup. New England Clam Gouda.

[@tomasbelohradsky4510]

even in czech its a cheese

[@EncryptedLiberty]

@@tomasbelohradsky4510 In Russian, it's a mixture of the two pronunciations. "G-ow-dah"

[@corbeau-_-]

it's just like balsamico and alp milk. Just a typical regional product that became successful. Goud is gold, btw... So it's like golda for us xD

[@noaccount4]

Nobody is going to comment that lowko's high school biology lab has a baneling on a glass?

[@MattFrisian]

My fiance is Russian, and I just explained to her the correct pronunciation of Gouda this weekend. I felt like Lowko would be proud.

[@MSDoL]

Tbf, the Russian pronounciation of Gouda (both the cheese and the city) is very similar to the Dutch variant, except for the historical tradition of translating germanic names with an "H" sound at the beginning of the word as a "G" sound. And the absense of the choking sound.

[@MattFrisian]

@@MSDoL It is true, but she had been hearing English speakers saying the name, and had learned it that way.

[@ivanatreides]

Your girlfriend is ruski? GG

[@MattFrisian]

[@Artess-od8wb]

17:20 "Oh no, it's like one of those biology labs in high school where they, like, keep the banelings on, like, whatever it is..." I always had high opinion about Dutch education, but looks like their high schools are pretty rad.

[@tinoneher8047]

For us Germans it is very easy to pronounce these vowls or throat sounds. Much love from Germany.🇩🇪

[@Beatfriid]

I doubt it. Most germans I know can't pronounce "CH" in my language, which is exactly the "G" in dutch.

[@tinoneher8047]

@@Beatfriid I mean then they can't pronounce something like "Lauche" or "tauchen"= diving. It seems a bit unrealistic.

[@denispeter8145]

The dutch OU seems like our german AU, while the G sounds much like our CH. I am pretty sure in Austria and Switzerland it should also be a regular occurence. Don't feel to alienated Lowko. You got a lot of friedly neighbours with the same glibberish of a language for the english natives :-)

[@karlkarlsson8826]

@@Beatfriid Your doubt is misplaced. We have the exact same throat sound. With our „Chr“. Shut up, sit down.

I propose a Lowko cast drinking game: Take a shot when Lowko: -yells -says Oh oh oh -discusses orbital commands -gets offended at map decor on the zergs behalf - discusses how good of a cameraman he is -says he’s a jerk to his viewers -Kek kek kek HWUAAAAHHHH - Discusses a language I’m pretty sure he made up

[@kaylahill3d546]

Lowko being so upset about the Zerg being slow cooked around the map is actually adorable.

[@OptimusWombat]

I love the additional analysis that Lowko provided at the end here. Don't normally see that sort of thing in a cast.

[@joe7380]

Slowly over time I will learn Dutch word by word by watching Lowko.

[@TheOnlyRizzy]

That LOTV unit tester bit at the end was super interesting! I'd love to see more videos of you just teaching StarCraft 2 to us like that

[@devonoltmanns5453]

I really enjoyed the unit tester at the end, helps show that it’s not always the quality of the units that wins the battle and that the user plays a big role

[@michaellacks9179]

Thank you Lowko for some Goudal SC2

[@zErotiBeriuM15]

Florencio and Has are now my channel favorites

[@Moshthun]

18:16 that roach didn't want to get slow cooked, but went for the fast option.

[@soulflame799]

Hello! Flo said in one of his games on his channel that he doesn't forget the upgrades of his units. He doesn't do the upgrades because he wants to master the units first and leaving the upgrades out (for now) making the game harder for him. When he will be better, only then will he start to upgrade his units. So it's just part of his training strategy at getting better at SC.

[@fiks267]

That nuke is like scarlet banglings burrowed. So epic and nice

[@YiddishDancingClown]

29:26 Florencio is anything but average Lowko

[@CallinWire]

Poor Lowko is gonna have war flashbacks over this match. Florencio's mistakes, the Zerg player's mistakes, realizing that Beckett Industries was built to slow-cook Zerg...

[@stephenfritz7493]

9:46 Reminds me of a scene from the Avengers. That cell is made to hold the Hulk. Maybe that hydra can turn into a Hulk... Cool. Or, else it's Loki. Neat.

I still would love a best of 3 Lowko vs Florencio with Harstem casting and roasting both! ^^

[@HugoBass83]

When I went to Amsterdam, our dutch guide told us the dutch pronunciation of the name Van Gogh. I was 18. My life hasn't been the same anymore. :D

[@Telhias]

That moment Lowko had to backtrack at 14:05, I was so sure that Lowko was going to talk about the fact that one gas geyser had too many workers and the other had only one. Alas not.

[@Treksh]

Time for some crazy games!

[@Reztiips]

Lowko, weapon upgrades scale with damage and attack speed. Thors roaches tanks and other slow attackers benefit from weapon upgrades more than any other unit in the game, with the exception of the carrier, because interceptors attack twice and both attacks get 1 damage. So carriers get +16 damage, but slow attacking units like tanks get like +10 base and like +20 vs armored. It's a huge amount of damage that allows them to kill more things in a very low number of hits. Roaches get like +6 per hit from +1, which is why in ZvZ +1 is so important, because the roaches can kill other roaches in considerably fewer attacks.

[@getawaykid]

You've got it all wrong, Lowko. beckett industries is actually a spa resort for zerg. Those pods on the cliffs are "Volcano View Suites". That hydralisk booked a weekend getaway on AirBnB that was listed as a "hot buy!". Those smaller pods are just a fancy skin care treatment spa. Because zerg deserves a little R-n-R now and then too!

[@JosephParker_Nottheboxer]

I just wanted to put this here.... upgrades for weapons, particularly slower fireing weapons get bigger upgrades. Siegge tanks do 15/25 damage in tank form, upgrades make that 17/28, 19/31 and finally 21/34... in Siege mode this is 40/70, to 44/75, 48/80 and 52/85 with full upgrades. Where as armour only goes up 1 per level.

[@timbaleno9269]
