StarCraft 2 BATTLECRUISER RUSH!

[@IRdatank]

"20 hp, 7 kills, and zero fucks on that battlecruiser." 😂😂😂

[@Yetti-Stompz2786]

shit had me dyin

[@MZethir]

8:20

[@erik71284]

Its official with the battlecruiser soundtrack. Winter has brought casting to a level that it can be considered as work of art. My enjoyment is immeasurable and my day got a little bit better

[@116th]

When it subtly swelled in, I went slackjawed and then started crying laughing. This man does the Lord's work.

[@Ttsukasaa]

Saw a battlecruiser, "O, so it's a gumiho game"

[@tike481]

Laser-Tubs

[@slavengineering8344]

Bless Gumiho, best terran at the moment (for entertainment at least)

[@BuddyHolly-lmao]

1:11 bugs do not have blood in the traditional sense. They have something called hemolymph which serves nearly the exact same function, but the critical difference is hemolymph does not carry oxygen. Because of their size, bugs can actually let oxygen defuse through into their bodies from the air without even needing lungs.

[@cthonianmessiah]

Thanks for this! I was about to make a similar comment but found yours first.

[@trobertw]

Thanks wikipedia

[@Nazgul601]

Came to the comments for this .

[@deflavigny]

wow i was thinking that exactly ur so smart

[@freezingneptune]

9:00 Winter going classical 🎶 on us. Keep up the creativity and sound snippets 😆

[@scarletmoon777]

Ah the battlecruiser never has their been a unit that so accurately predicts a throw.

[@richardnary4572]

My ultras would like a word

[@patrickstagz4699]

The production value winter manages to squeeze out his four person crew is incredible.

[@cthonianmessiah]

38:00 witnessing Winter's soul leaving his body as he sees into the future 🤣

[@TheLiquidpower]

As a smart person, I would just like to say that I think you got the best words.

[@ende666]

im not even deep into SC2, but i always watch your videos- your commentary is so damn good and fun to watch, love ya

[@BrianNibley]

I'm also not that into SC2, I might play a noob co-op match once in a blue moon. But watching this guy stream the replays is too entertaining, and similar streamers don't match up.

[@116th]

That long-sleeved SC joint is fresh

[@herpderpslerp]

I like gumiho because of his reluctance to go ghosts instead of the OVER RELIANCE. That it seems so many high level players go for. The balance patch is so.... Not a patch. I want to see good awesome back and forth games. Not the zerg and or protoss with 1k apm didnt do this 1 thing because their humans playing a game and then the terrain got 3 bases with drugs and guns into ghosts at 10 minutes. AGAIN for another 3+ years. I can only watch mass bio play with what seems to be a "oh I didn't stim to win in 7 minutes? time to go ghosts and win at 10." With what seems like the other races struggling to respond let alone fight back, For so long.

[@roadtrip6075]

"by begging you to like...and maybe even....subscribe" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@BrianNibley]

"Hope you're having a good day so far, and hopefully it's about to get just, a little, bit, better." 👍

[@DaveGiant]

I haven't watched Starcraft for years and KZbin decided to recommend Winter. I love the casting. 5th video in 5 days. Loved every minute. Keep up the good work mate.

[@quarantinezone2844]

Just like when I'm awake at 3AM. Cheese will always get my attention. 🧀

[@GabrielRodriguez-lf9qg]

Describing my target demographic "Post Youth" is crazy! LOL Keep up the good work!

[@kobragangbit]

im 33 grew up Peak Blizzard i still have plenty of youth left 🤭

[@hugosantos7180]

Battlecruiser + dark in thumbnail My brain imidiatly: dark will neuro an scv and rush BC 😆

[@ttprophet]

(SVC starts a 10' patrol in a stray corner of the map) "Shhh! Let him cook!"

[@paulbarteltii9998]

I appreciate Winter showing off his artwork between matches

[@dubnubgtd8538]

I love that when he plays the lotr music and FUSIOOOONN COOOOOOORE

[@ShikiKhorinthian]

I absolutely lost it at the end of the second game. I may love watching Dark games, but GuMiho is sometimes far more entertaining.

[@Wanderer1991]

That was nasty with the BC opening but Dark held his own. Came in clutch with the SH.

[@Patton1944]

I remember when Totalbiscuit would do those proxy battlecruiser games. Man I miss him.

[@RyuFelinshire]

Winter has the best words. -A smart person.

[@ManDuderGuy]

It's amazing how much Gumi effs around and still remains a competitive pro.

[@miza6]

This is in the top 3 of the casts of this series i have seen! Jimmmmmy!

[@matthewray5954]

My day got a little bit better after I watched this. Thanks Winter 🎉

[@116th]

8:52 Industrial Revolution? I'd say it's a Five-Year Plan.

[@LucianDevine]

I had a home defense Banshee, but I eventually traded it in for my home defense Battlecruiser.

[@t3e_e]

22:00 "it doesn't give you supply this patch" 🤣 🤣 Gdi we love you, Winter

[@aidanholden0]

26:10 winter that made me laugh so hard. winter zoned out and dropped 'the BBC play'. Winter, I would this is the funniest cast hahahahaha

[@griffincoccari9396]

Super excited for StarCraft 4, they're taking the game back to its roots

[@pitecusH]

So, fun fact: gumihó *could* mean "rubber snow" in a european language nobody speaks or has even heard of. Whether or not "rubber snow" makes any sense is debatable, but it can be considered a word... ...but after the first 2 games, I'm starting to think it matches the player quite well! (it's a joke, don't hate me, loved the sudden appearnce of the cattlebruiser and how happy Winter seemed about it and I've seen all the casts of the last two weeks)

[@StayaYL]

Honestly, that segment with the opera music was very chill. Have you considered doing golf style cast with opera playing? This could be cool, and different.

[@tyletwoodworth3145]

Gumibro always delivers

[@TheHalogen131]

1:14 not quite. Insects have something called hemolymph. It serves as an oxygen transport system just like blood, but instead of hemoglobin, which is red, it uses hemocyanin, which is blue-ish when bound with oxygen and white-ish, when unbound. But since zerg bodily liquids are red, I have no fucking idea what it's supposed to be. You'd have to ask Subsorian.

[@Juvyss]

"Baracks into battlecruiser rush, the bbc play" LMAO

[@dwpteng]

A typical Winter cast 🤣, thoroughly enjoyed!

[@yaboyalaska7550]

zerg are canonically insects as you can tell by thier larval life cycle, 6 legs and morachical social structure and yes lizards have blood

[@shawnyewest]

Ohh hoho I've been wanting another Battlecruiser Gumi-game for a long time now. With The Final Boss? Hard to beat. Winter be delivering, as always

[@spokoman23]

"Barracks doesn't give you supply this patch" LOL

[@101mazz]

Your Dark intro is the best in the biz....

[@travisthomson1985]

9:43 no jimmy! no! This is what I fall asleep to

[@spawnofheck]

Bug "blood" is called hemolymph. They defiantly go "squish" when popped

[@dhelsel89]

That gg when the Starport was killed 🤣🤣

[@hexaquras9374]

I appreciate Gumiho for not building Ghosts which is weird since its kinda the easy win unit but instead opted with the BCs and ranged libs, I hope this way he's gonna add BCs to the lategame as suppose to just building ghosts

[@th3cub350]

Pretty sure the PTR patch is in preparation for the coming of the game to the gamepass on november 5th and yes, sadly PTR patches are usually the ones going live, i don't understand their choices here, i was hopeful with microsoft behind the games now we will have some more sound decisions, but apparently NOT.

[@Schacal6666]

Crazy how every ability and sieging and unsieging of Terran is instant and unpunichable. Love balance But Gumhio and Dark having fun and just enjoying old and odd unit combs make it still enjoyable

[@ErosArkheinym]

>instant and unpunishable >sees tens of tanks die to literally the worst unit in the zerg comp sure jan

[@JohnWick-ry3yo]

How have you found a way to balance whine despite gumiho getting smashed? Is your brain functional?

[@ymalikov]

[@Wabits]

You make it sound very fun and interesting. Its a good talent and I thought I would just encourage you some more to keep going, its working.

[@spenserroxsox]

Community support saw this game and thought "we better nerf protoss"

[@LucianDevine]

Game 2 is the best game I've EVER seen! Just trust me bro!

[@Dark_Silver]

the reason GuMiho lost first match was he had NOT ENOUGH battlecruisers, which is sad, just go 20 BTs and gg btw, not a StarCraft 4, but a World of StarCraft and not extraction first person shooter, cuz we have Helldivers for that :P

[@Zslone2]

Game 2, man that was amazing

[@demacry]

It's nice to see the results of your average ladder game in that game 2

[@nobodyhere22500]

Battlecruisers really are the best zerg unit.

[@bryteofficial]

Jimmy! Gaad... dammit Jimmy!!!

[@theanti-hypemonitor9079]

its funny how strong bc rushes have always been yet blizz gonna nerf queens xD edit... its amazing how dark even ends up winning when he is CLEARLY losing earlier

[@cathulionetharn5139]

Thank You Om nom nom

[@kenhorn4327]

Siege tanks can still fly while sieged if they are sieged, and a viper grabs them! Right!?

[@tomerbarzilay8553]

"The BBC play" had me dying

[@CreepingTerror]

Good games for the fans are fine and all, but I'm really here for the queen dialogue.

[@VictorAlyCS]

Swarmhost are op. They add instantly more army

[@blazingsun971]

When is Dark going to the military exactlly? I kinda heard about him going to the military for the whole year now, and yet here he is still.

[@LucianDevine]

I think he already did? It was Serral who had his, and he just got back from it.

[@screes620]

Wait.. did he gg with a dozen libs still sitting idle in his main?

[@TheStracky]

Does anyone know what that replay Interface is?

[@morganwilson6390]

i like the music.

[@trobertw]

Honestly, I don't care what ppl say. The terran buff was overdue. Zerg wins most major tournaments and protoss dominates the ladder. Terran requires the most skill to micro and macro. Protoss can literally teleport and almost every unit can cast a spell. Some would call that OP. Zerg can also see the whole map with creep which is pretty easy to do. Facts are facts

[@StayaYL]

Okay, what's the lore behind the paintings? o_o

[@TheDarkwill777]

Your new bit should be seeing how many games you can get away with mentioning that the game version is on the new patch.

[@WhoTheLoL]

Hm... I wonder why Swarm Hosts are considered a supply trap because locusts are an active threat for 18 seconds on a 43 second cooldown... and somehow disruptors aren’t considered a supply trap even though the nova exists for 2.1 seconds on a 21 second cooldown, can be removed by killing the ruptor, the ruptor is immobilized when the nova exists and only deals damage once. Maybe zergs can try to start using SHs like tosses use ruptors, to generate a steady stream of deadly meatshields. The slow speed of the locust shouldnt be an issue if you send them in ahead of time. I would imagine defending a roach ravager attack on your base should be much more annoying if there's wave after wave after wave of several locusts incoming every few seconds.

[@LucianDevine]

Ruptors aren't considered a trap, because the AoE is necessary. They are just considered a coin flip, even if they are a necessary one. Whether you do Ruptors, Colossus, or High Templar, you have to do one of them if you need the AoE, or you are just throwing the game. As for why Swarm Hosts are considered a trap, it's because they are 3 supply each, you need a decent number of them for them to be effective, and they are doing nothing 2/3 of the time, even if you are using them on cooldown, not to mention they are ESPECIALLY vulnerable during that 2/3 of the time, or HAVE to be in the Nydus.

[@WhoTheLoL]

@@LucianDevine I get it that toss desperately needs AOE, but just because toss needs it doesn't make it any better. Also, you do realize that the entire second paragraph of your reply could be copy-pasted about ruptor as well, right? You just need to change the name of the unit and make all numbers look worse (3 supply -> 4 supply, 2/3 -> 90%).

[@LucianDevine]

@@WhoTheLoL Except that Swarm Hosts are never necessary. So if you aren't using that 1/3 timing perfectly, you are falling into the trap. Every one of Toss's AoE options has a flaw, depending on the matchup. It doesn't change the fact that when Toss needs AoE, they NEED AoE. So you have to take the chance and try to toe that line or you are just dead anyway. You either build your 3 Colossus, and no more so you aren't too vulnerable to things like Vikings and Corruptors, build your Ruptors, flip the coin, and make sure you always hold one back so they can't rush you while your AoE is on cooldown, or go Storm and are vulnerable to EMP or armies that are too bulky for it.

[@WhoTheLoL]

@@LucianDevine Well, I disagree with a some points here. Most importantly, while it's obvious toss needs AOE, I disagree that toss ever needs ruptors - or at least ruptors functioning as AOE. Without getting too much into detail, I've seen plenty of pros handle their non-mirror matchups without ruptors. Colossi covering a transition to storms/archons suffice. Storm prism is a great answer to EMP, it provides a micro-based counter that can't really be stopped in any easy way - you just have to be good enough to use it well, which is what we want from SC2. There's also no such thing as an enemy army that needs your AOE but is too bulky to storm - if the enemy sports Ultras, Thors or other beefy units that shrug off storms, then you should be using Immortals, not ruptors. A ruptor scoring full 145 damage to 6 enemy units (not even sure if it's physically possible to hit 6 thors with ruptor, but let's go with this) equals 870 damage, over 21 second cooldown it is 41dps. A +3 Immortal has 57dps vs armored (after the upcoming nerf from 5.0.14 PTR). Anyway, I think that the playerbase has somehow completely missed the point of the disruptor, which imho is to... disrupt. It's not meant to score AOE hits, it's meant to force the enemy to waste APM, cut DPS and abandon convenient positions by forcing them to dodge the nova. The reason why Protoss needs that in the first place is because protoss has the hardest time disengaging from a fight because of how slow they are. When they want to retreat, Protoss need help. Forcefields are OK-ish until EMP/Ultras, stasis wards are unreliable. Disruptor is the only unit that is capable of effectively negotiating a retreat with the enemy army. So, with the above in mind, I think that the Disruptor's role in the Protoss arsenal is to disrupt - force the enemy to dodge the nova, at the risk of receiving massive losses if they fail to do so. At that role, Disruptors are OK.... ... but could Swarm Hosts not be thought of the same way? They both produce something short-lived on a large cooldown that is capable of dealing exorbitant amounts of damage if not paid proper attention. Isn't that kinda similar? 3 SHs take 9 supply and every 43 seconds produce 6 locusts whose DPS exceeds that of a full medivac of stimmed marines... which is 10 supply. Long story short, I believe that the SC2 playerbase, including the pros and casters, have a lot more depth to discover in this game. You might say that after 14 years we've seen everything, but it wasn't more than 2 weeks ago when Dark broke ZvT with his mass Overseer/Changeling strategy that actually works on highest level of play. Skillous is the only Protoss I've seen to use the FF/Ruptor trick, where he drops two ineffective forcefields and retreats, dragging the terran bioball through the gap between the FFs, and then fires a ruptor nova - the terrans have to squeeze through the hole between the FFs which slows them down just enough for the nova to actually hit. SC2 is such a gem, played to death by thousands of players, tens of thousands of times per day, and there's still new stuff to discover in it. I believe SHs are the same. Some pro player will soon realize that just having a handful of SHs as a distraction can actually force micro errors on the enemy side, just enough for their Ravagers shots to hit home.
