"It's too cringe." Does it anyway.

[@shadowconquer-yv5yd]

About your Archon question, I think it's like in Pacific Rim where they test the compatibility of the pilots where in this case it's the Templars. Unless there's like one templar that's mainly controlling the Archon and that main controller would be the more powerful templar of the 2.

[@AlexCatable]

Cheers for nominating and casting the game! Respect!

[@701e9]

That sandwich.. damn 🫡

[@makscatt_YouTube]

unfortunally u missed the main moment in the game. in 32:15, when hero splits army he killed bunch of broodlords with stalkers while reynor was on the way to protect last mining base. That was the key moment, when raynor lost the game :D

[@ChrisConnett]

Liked - only because you did the thing :p

[@JQ888]

8:29 Protoss not on hold position. Classic hero. Literally laughed out loud

[@NoName-kf1cy]

I think at the end of the year you should review the games of the year. To have a few acual winners to game of the year lol just a suggestion

[@megustAslagt]

Can we have a 'game of the year' awards/review/retrospective at the end of each year? That would make sense considering there are multiple games of the year each year :)

[@starwarsfamilyguy0]

33:08 how could think that lol

[@sidonchte1983]

Imagine becoming an Archon with Lowko.

[@ThoriumThoughts]

Those are always my favorite openings, part of it is because they aren’t the opening every opening.

[@urkrass1581]

Awesome Coment like usual. U need to do something'bout these who are trying to copy u without Ur Energy, ridiculess. Go for it, wanna see 1kk 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

[@dzuritaa]

I’m here for the intro

[@DreyDope]

I won't even bother watching the whole vid if there was no "hello everyone" intro

[@jdspencer60]

HELLO EFRYONE my name is the GOAT caster!

[@DDD-wt7ly]

If Reynor built even 10 workers after being ahead he would have won

[@mrwolf9095]

Even though I love your intro lowko, don’t do it if you aren’t able to. I understand it gets you more likes and whatnot, but don’t strain your voice. Great cast as always though!

[@NovusGM]

I wonder how many "game of the year" games have been cast so far 😂

[@mikegomez2646]

So glad he pushed through the cringe to give us the iconic intro

[@spaggetoni]

wonder what he wanted to say at 28:25

[@bosilisk]

too much math...brain melting 7/10 😂

[@MrBiosh0ck]

Other races are cool, but zerg makes the game fun to watch.

[@andrewbarnes4443]

God if you didn’t do your intro I would be heartbroken

[@MrChocolows]

Game of the year for two weeks at least.

[@macq1]

I don't understand why Hero is considered top tier anymore. He all-army hot keys. His retreat timing is terrible. When he disengages, he still looses too many units. He is not it any longer

[@TheRealKimJong-Il]

Ive been wondering this the past couple days. Hes also making weird compositions and decisions

[@yamilabugattas3895]

Did you see the game? I think it's pretty clear why he is considered top tier, despite some terrible mistakes.

[@jbwallenstein4151]

No not Zackery! Why!!! (20 mins in)

[@Awakenlord]

archon comment ftw :))

[@pichit.t]

Every other game is game of the year.

[@vape_monkey]

You should always use that intro. Like all the great rock bands, same intro for 50 years.

[@Z7Sakari]

Nah nah, it’s ok you don’t need to backpedal. Becoming an Archon with someone who talks about formula 1 all day would be horrific 😂

[@sk-nc4ew]

Man, you need a new intro. Maybe with slightly less hype, no sparkles... ;-P

[@eztvlight1202]

A moment of silence for Lowkos larynx 🥲

[@patricktuminski3931]

Lowko stocks at an all time high after that intro

[@simonlind44]

Such an emotional rollercoaster. Yes the intro of course!

[@rearnakedguy1501]

Lol the Fakeout in the beginning. Always love the content!

[@tiaranha]

Yeah.... I was Thinking do It do it

[@xBermellonx]

😂 I was about to get sad in the intro and then you saved it 😂

[@jayhxmo]

Lowko you missed the best part with the stalkers catching the brood lords at 32:25 😭

[@kozatas]

32:18 10 Broodlords 32:25 5

[@fsabouni]

nice catch!!

[@suzukaiv5987]

ty for mentioning, it seems hero split the stalker to chase the broodlord and the zealot are just bait for broodlord to go there 😊🎉

[@andresv.9365]

I noticed the same, the slow broodlords got left behind when rushing to save the base, and hero sent the stalkers down from the south knowing that would happen. That's got to be one of the best moves I've seen, recall into attacking the other side of the map, into chasing the slow broodlords. I wish Lowko had noticed it.

[@rintan5231]

I can't believe Lowko missed the best trap by Hero at 32:20

[@badtiming2208]

So glad you continued your intro. I was hovering my mouse pointer over the red X.

[@WoA596]

That was a beautiful game! Some very sharp decision making and manoeuvring by the winner.

[@rgytos]

Here goes another one "game of the year" 😂🎉🎉🎉❤

[@danailmarinov7299]

Always do your opening! It's comforting for your regular fans. Me included.

[@10manan]

Imagine becoming an archon with Lowko

[@Raesh_]

My day doesn't start until I've heard: "Hello everyone! My name is Lowko! And welcome back to a professional match of Starcraft 2."

[@ArmagedonCS]

Im biased Zerg but damn Hero played it well

[@velocirapper]

I love the hello my name is Lowko. This is the most Lowko video cos it has the intro /and/ its "game of the year"

[@徐裕成]

第五新年快樂

[@cjfletcher325]

Ultralisks should be able to walk over top of zerglings

[@ManDuderGuy]

Agree. And motherships should not be snatchable by vipers 😢

[@Defileros]

Damn these immortals in the end melted the wetpaperlisks

[@REgamesplayer]

I would not call this game of the year material, because it mostly felt like one of those games where your opponent allows you to come back to the game. Reynor did not comitted to an aggression or to economy after that massive lead. Instead he started building Broodlords on a miniscule economy. He seemed indecisive entire game and this is what had caused him to throw this match.

[@mar_sh4617]

This was so much Reynors game to lose, and it really shows how far ahead Serral really is. Reynors absolute refusal to make a single drone for a majority of the game killed him.

[@Bookqoutes_]

LOVE THE CLASSIC INTRO, WILL REMEMBER IT TILL I DIE!

[@Iggi_101]

Leaving a comment for the algorithm, great casting as always.

[@CubeItself]

i am so happy to see infestors being utalized to probably their best potential

[@Ziggenvox]

WOW that last fight was insane. It looked like hero was going to lose for sure until the sandwich.

[@BlackFeno]

That intro is the best Lowko content ever!

[@ryanmurphy4870]

Storm gate will never be starcraft 2.

[@jackinthebox301]

It isn't trying to be.

[@soulvanquisher1]

I was really liking and getting used to no intro just “what I have for you today…” but I’m here for it whatever it is. Love the commentary 👍

[@jasonlynch282]

Sad thing about archon formation is it's a one way ticket. The two high templars sacrifice their physical bodies to turn into a conscious avatar of physic energy. But they burn out and die later on.

[@rossburney8713]

I'm late proof that you *do* have fans who watch all your videos. Just late. Saved in my Playlist and your better give me the Lowko getting! Love the casts Lowko. From one Boomer (grew up on SC1) keep up the good work

[@francoispellerin4268]

The best part of watching your videos is singing along with you at the beginning.

[@backbeatben]

lolol when lowko talked about becoming an archon with someone who loves watches... one time I was invited over to my landlord's house and he showed me and some guests his watch collection... 1 hour of the most boring thing ever xD

[@rc-fannl7364]

Lowko, some Telegram spammer tries to make people believe they've won something from you. Maybe you've already seen it in the comments.

[@Zoutsteen]

why don't you make a 2023 game of the year excerp? Just pick the moments that made a game memorable to considered game of the year, kinda like an energy bomb of OMG and WOW's for the viewers?

[@blindguardian8599]

Is it me or is the image not native 4k ? It seems blurry, as if it's 1080p or something. I'm comparing to other channels (like ''PiG Casts'', where the image looks 4k, crisp and sharp). It's a shame, cause the commentary of this channel is top notch.

[@rc-fannl7364]

"Never give up" sure applies here

[@carlossalas1354]

jeeeelooww every1 my name is LOCO and welcome back!! hahaha I LOVE THIS INTRO!!

[@watermenplumbingfiltration144]

Wow, what a game. Definitely game of the year!

[@FDCPElmo]

@9:53 I haven’t played in a decade and recently started watching sc2 again. Why does he need a proxy gate 10 mins into the game? are forward placed or hidden pylons not good enough to warp in from anymore? Back when I played you used to build a pylon at the front behind your attack to reinforce from.

[@willpilot7580]

It could be so much worse than being an archon with a watch or f1 guy. You could be stuck with a train spotter, a sneekerhead, or even someone who watches other people play video games.

[@easlern]

Great game but I’m really here for the archon dating advice 😂

[@orangepearlf40]

MY NAME IS LOWKO!!!!

[@aclock2]

Protoss doesnt have any ground option against BroodLord beside Stalker. Terran has Thor, Marine, Ghost all are good

[@Ty-bz7zx]

DO IT ! ! ! Nice.

[@pichit.t]

Every other game is game of the year.

[@RCG3.]

Lowko if you ever stop doing that intro ... well i won't do anything to you but I'll be mad.

[@Mainlychesscontent]

My favourite unit is assimilator

[@ljwidrow4558]

he did it.🥳

[@toolshed47]

0:09 I hit like.

[@theorochocz6735]

this game would've been so easy to reynor if he hadn't refused to drone in the last half of the match....

[@burdy1990]

When he created that sandwich, hero was showing why “ Power overwhelming “ is a Protoss thing.

[@highlife6026]

keep the introduction, its really the best and one of the reason i watch your videos...

[@iamgreysian4016]

What a hero

[@maximesavard-beaudoin560]

intro

[@JG-ti7id]

U CAN DEW ITTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TheRealKimJong-Il]

So by extension, are you also telling us you collect stamps Lowko?

[@holyslaya1645]

I don't know if it was intentional but not hearing the end of someone talking about watches is funny

[@davidfroman4943]

Please continue doing the intro. One of the best parts of the video.

[@tacochaos5127]

"At least go on a few dates before you commit to being an archon" 😂😂

[@noborikoon]

The mad lad started to do it, stopped himself.. then did it anyway!

[@quantifiablyqorrect2905]

Man z could have easily won that.... he didnt capitalize

[@p0part299]

Second

[@dsjanc]

??? Nor cringe at all. Kinda fun and trademark for you

[@tillman1697]

This Thumbs Up was for the INTRO!

[@joeludlow8837]

Hah. This is what happens when zerg makes ultras.

[@ryanwsu4]

Can we get a “game of the year counter” for 2024?

[@isoufo]

He always gets a like from me for this intro

[@ShinigamiPrime]

how dare lowko try to cancel his own intro! >=E

[@hellangel28]

if i would be called zachary, id be mad, too!
