Silver League Toss is ENRAGED at this “rush” | Salt Mines #20 - StarCraft 2

[@chrisrose1983]

Leave it to a french player to build a wall that doesn't work.

[@matszz]

I'm utterly convinced that PAC didn't know he was about to lose until the score screen came up. When he said "LOSER" he thought he was winning.

[@asharak84]

Though he could spell loser, so that puts him above most ladder ragers...

[@SolarisKane]

This is what I believe too. If he knew it was game over upon losing buildings he would've hid a probe and built a nexus. The fact he didn't means he probably didn't know.

[@MisterNightfish]

I love how there are 8 cannons and it would still be perfectly possible for 6 or 7 roaches to run in and kill all the probes and we'd probably lose one roach

[@BaufenBeast]

He went air on one base and didn't even make a wall with his cannons. It'd ruin the aesthetics I guess.

[@mhc706]

Man hearing “sunken colony” really hit the memory part of my brain so hard. They were so much cooler than spines

[@theswiss9063]

This isn't salty at all - Pad was clearly inviting his opponent and his family to a Canadian 'adult party'. And Poutine will be served. Sounds like a friendly guy...

[@ArtyMcMuffin]

Ay, as a french canadian myself, I am fairly sure that he's from France and not Canada. These are clearly "France's" insults, and a reference to a certain russian ruler. Quebec's ones are a lot more.... colorful and Church-related. However, you would be right in some aspect as poutine (the dish) is quite "salty". :D

[@plutonrond9206]

Mcmuffin is right, our insults are way more well though than those primitive mum and others basic jokes.

[@eructationlyrique]

Poutine also happens to be the french spelling for Putin. In context, that's more likely what they meant

[@Deipnosophist_the_Gastronomer]

I was going to say, because poutine is tasty.

[@Shmandalf]

Maybe these protoss came from something like Age of Empires, where the average game is like 30-60 minutes, so the concept of an average game lasting 10-20 is just something that isn't clicking.

[@baltulielkungsgunarsmiezis9714]

Thats still wholy on him tho. Ive never played any Starcraft and my favorite RTS is Age of Empires 2 and I understand that in Stacraft you wall less and scout more.

Thank you Dot, this selection of replays were chefs kiss :D

[@BeesNTrees47]

I watched 3 seconds of this randomly from autoplay, it was the part where he moved the probes into the banelings... pig - that was literally negative micro! rofl

[@helgrin8754]

I'd say that "turtling up" is characteristic of a player that went straight into multi after campaigns

[@baltulielkungsgunarsmiezis9714]

I wouldnt. Campagne maps whos objective isnt hold out are most effectively beaten by rushing them.

[@WyandWombat]

You know, I watched countless hours of SC2 and probably still couldn't do much better than the angry protoss. I'd probably have a somewhat better strategy, but it mechanically overwhelms me to the point where I just sit there and nothing happens the way I want it to. Still entertaining though :)

[@allorgansnobody]

Watch the bronze to gm series ^^

[@Shmandalf]

Its just practice like anything, eventually your openers become like auto-pilot and everything kinda flows. Its like learning a tune on a piano in a way, you learn a tune but when you're bored or the need arises you put your own spins on it by using different keys. I went from Bronze to Diamond one season just by playing 25-30 games a week for about a month.

[@aaronbrucker966]

I love the team game analysis, spot on. I play zerg and get toss allies like this all the time.

[@pigeonwrench8476]

I have never wanted to see a pro win as much as I wanted Danny Devito to close that one out.

[@Knowbody42]

I think when he said POUTINE, it might have been a mis-spelling of Putin.

[@pierrefley5000]

It's not misspelled, just French. The French transliteration of Путин is "Poutine".

[@baltulielkungsgunarsmiezis9714]

@@pierrefley5000 So it is a misspelling. Путин = Putin or Pucin or Put'in or Putyn. There is no o or e in the russijan dictators surname.

[@pierrefley5000]

@@baltulielkungsgunarsmiezis9714 There is no P or c or i or n in there, either. Those are all Latin letters.

[@baltulielkungsgunarsmiezis9714]

@@pierrefley5000 Em, ser, it doesnt matter if you write his name in kirilik or latin script its the same name.

[@pierrefley5000]

@@baltulielkungsgunarsmiezis9714 Ah, but how do you transfer a name from one script to another? You can come up with some mapping between characters and simply replace each character from Cyrillic by the equivalent you've chosen from Latin. This is called transliteration. However, a character-by-character mapping might not be appropriate because some characters may not have exact equivalents in the other script and it doesn't capture pronunciation anyway. And for names it is usually the pronunciation that matters. So an alternative is to write the name in a way that preserves the way it sounds as much as possible. This is necessarily language dependent because different languages pronounce words in different ways. For example, the name Ельцин has an official transliteration of Elʹcin in the Latin alphabet, but in English it is commonly rendered as Yeltsin, in German as Jelzin, and in French as Ieltsine. None of these are misspellings; they're all correct orthographic transcriptions for a particular language. Similarly, Poutine is the correct orthographic transcription of Путин for French (and Poetin for Dutch, Putin for English, Pûtîn for Kurdish, etc).

[@Santisima_Trinidad]

You can get an animal which is of a different breed from the mother, if the father is off a different breed. Usually called half breeds or mixed race, and often with technical names such as mule or hinny.

[@BroadwayRonMexico]

I'm guessing the ledge canon is to prevent Nydus worms from popping up there. That is around where a lot of Zerg like to pop them in

[@ToTheNines87368]

I was screaming internally at the end “make fucking units Danny!” then he proceeds to make 12 cannons for whatever reason.

[@Lucas-qp4ht]

Hey, just to clarify things up, Poutine is the french spelling for Putin, as in the russian president. Also the same spelling as the canadian dish, but I'd think Pad meant Putin here :)

The best thing about the Salt Mines is the straight-faced linguistic and cultural analysis of the profanities. Love it!

[@helgrin8754]

yeah, in the first one, protoss would be me if I'd jump into multi straight after the campaign, since this is the classic campaign play style. Beautiful defense, with proper batteries, preeetty sim city, since it's fun in campaign meanwhile zerg would be me right now, after watching lots of multi star craft

[@raphaelfamilyfirst3058]

[@fundamentalconvolution1749]

That and it doesn't help that Starcraft 2 has actively punished turtlers through updates (nerfing things to weaken turtling, forcing them to expand more frequently so they have to space them out, etc). The toss player is definitely overdoing the base defenses, I agree.

[@fundamentalconvolution1749]

I got shunted into playing protos in my group (3ppl including me), but I love Zergs offensive speed (which I got to play eventually). We were all new, but me with the knowledge from watching pros. Lets just say in my first game, my "rush" at 5 minutes with 20 stalkers annihilated my group

First one: I think the quality of the salty meltdown would have been ever greater, had the zerg army visited the two secret bases after the first attack :D edit: wanna bet pad and PAC are the same player?

[@MrYago-xd7um]

Dot probably thought the same and seems to be consistent in making that impression with these replay packs.

[@Xylasider]

Okay PiG, I'd like to point out some discrepancy with your MMR guessing. I'm not a good player by any means. But I do Bronze to GM strats, I can manage 65-75 APM with Terran at Silver 1. And that was with an MMR of just over 2000. So when the games are of terrible play and you say it could be 2200 MMR, that makes me feel really bad.

[@patberresford7195]

i feel like you are describing my specific 2v2 experience

[@AEtherstream]

9:43 i choose to believe it is actually a super deep meta insult because he is a zerg, and by saying he is the same breed as his mother he is suggesting that he did not evolve at all, which as a zerg would be an ultimate insult like calling an Asari a pureblood (for those who played Mass Effeect)

[@addham82]

I see your Protoss Cannon Rush and raise you an UNO Reverse.

Mules and hinnies are an example of an animal where the offspring are not the same species as the parents (mules have donkey fathers and horse mothers, while hinnies are the reverse)

[@TiGobMan426]

French Canadien here. About the "Poutine" thing, this is how "Putin" is spelled in french. Looks like the guy is from France, so it's more likely he was refering to Vladimir Putin. Your interpretation was funnier tho haha

Pad plays exactly like how every opponent I used to play when I was under plat lol. Always hidden bases and straight to end game units. They trained me to take the advice of "if he's doing weird shit just kill him"

[@jean-christophearsenault2104]

Yes the french come from a long heritage of looking down upon french canadians, but they mostly have a culture where you ascend by pushing others down. Most french moving to Québec to study are open minded and feel very welcomed into a culture of humility rather than humiliation.

[@2pairOfAces]

Ligers, tigons, and mules come to mind as separate breeds from their mothers. Also, cuckoo's and other brood parasites.

[@Chessdrummer83]

Culturally abrasive is such a good way of describing aussie bogans hahaha. Hi from Albury! Love your content mate

[@toadkult]

We used to play every game with the rule no attacking for 20 minutes. So any attack that comes before both players are at full supply tier 3 units is a rush. That's why you build the static defenses. If you can't rely on macro or micro to give you the advantage, and the game is balanced, getting your opponent to fight you over your defenses is the only possible advantage.

[@Broformist]

I meet these amazing Protoss players in Plat team games fairly often. Ton of cannons before even taking a second base. Getting a teammate like that is when I know game is gonna go great. I lost patience with one of them couple of days ago and tried to explain that this is stupid, all I got in response was "stfu loser". :D

[@markpayton3895]

How is it a Plat team game when your teammate is a silver at best?

[@Broformist]

@@markpayton3895 How the fuck should I know? Only that's about the majority of protosses I've met playing public 3v3s in Plat, close to Diamond actually as its over 3k MMR. I decided to stop any attempts to play with pubs few days ago because of shit like that, had enough. Plenty of idiot terrans who are not aware they can make a second base too, but at least those guys make some units. I can only assume people who play 3v3s have no clue when their build is garbage and always just blame teammates for losses.

[@AdolfRothschild]

​@@markpayton3895team game rankings go something like this Bronze- can be anything from bronze to plat Silver- Silver Gold- no idea, never seen gold players before Plat- same thing Diamond- Plat M3- bronze 3 to silver 2 M2 and 1 - diamond to grandmaster

Different cat species can breed in captivity and as result they will have hybrid kittens. (Tiger and lion for example) So there is a way to be a different breed then your mother.

Turtling on canons and rushing a carrier fleet is actually one of the most common strats in the first days of broodwar.

[@glados4765]

Have a feeling that DannyDevito player was stopping to look at his build order guide. The build order guide didnt tell him to just run past carriers and static defense and go straight for the probes.

[@nicg8919]

I am french canadian and honestly I doubt this guy even really speaks french. That felt more like google translated stuff he just typed in. Fils de pute is not an expression that is used that often here either that is more something they would say in France. And unless I am mistaken he was probably not talking about poutine the meal but Poutine the russian president :), would make more sense with the rest of the sentence anyways imo! Very entertaining nonetheless!

[@JonNeimeister]

I'm pretty sure "poutine" is meant to be "putin" but I still appreciated the in-depth analysis of the classist food-judgment verbal harassment.

I always was the lunatic that was like "how fast can I get another base" and starting I was playing vs my uncle a lot of times and he usually would be someone that did rushes (maybe because I was an idiot that always wanted more bases).. and grew into building defense into expansion lol i progressed in reverse.

Not every parent is the same species as the offspring. An obvious example is a mule which comes from the mating of a donkey and a horse. Also, if you use breed specifically instead of species there are even more examples. Two dogs of different breeds mating will produce a mut or a new breed.
