StarCraft 2: Epic Match! REINVENTING TERRAN MECH?!

I hate Terrans so much for going bio all the time. This is sooooo refreshing and so cool to watch!

That was beyond sick. Omg. Gumiho shined, epic indeed. I remember Dark winning against Maru, and now we see him struggle against this Mech master. Awesome. Added to favorites.

Gumiho is playing swann from co op

[@Nod_L3g1oN]

with the problem that units dmg is differnet from normal sc2 then co op.there in the co op mode unit balance is better,some units not doing high dmg on building and vs other.Example roaches can barely scratch a building in co op,while normal sc2 they melt it so crap dmg balance is a joke.

[@selectivepontification8766]

These comments are absolutely on point.

[@mahdimoradkhani6610]

The sheer amount of SKILL to pull that terran style off though, damn. I thought bio terran would always need more micro but the way he moved those thors and helions was beautiful

you missed that epic play of gumiho in the 4th match. Where the overlord was still scouting after that early ling attack. When gumhi went for the starport with techlab he started building a viking and cloak so dark things banshee cloak again, then killing the overlord cancelling the cloak and immediatly beginning the production for that counter attack which won him the game

[@g.zoltan]

Time to learn some new strategies. Actually, no. I don't think many of us play on a level where this would be useful.

[@jash8270]

Yes better watch other silver leagues to improve your playstyle. 😬

[@soongwanjun9381]

Why don't just focus own play style and improve from there wouldn't be better?

[@schippes24]

it's probably not that bad to watch pro plays and get inspired by some of the little things that "ad up quickly" like lowko likes to call it.. obviously you cant do pick up micro for 2minutes with thors that have like 50hp left

Not too sure. Mocha make great mob control

its because of mules :P

[@mrmurpvw]

You can mitigate my terran mule income with burrow. Block an expo site with a burrowed ling. Send a burrowed roach to harass. Detonate a burrowed baneling as my army rolls by. Even if it doesn't hit me, I'll throw out a couple scans to be safe. Each scan costs me 250-300 minerals.

Holy shit that final game.. That drop ship & Thor micro while still keeping up macro and splitting up his army conducting multi-pronged harass and killing dark.. amazing.

I also feel like Lowko is going to be listening to Starcraft music in the retirement home 60 years from now :) My best friend as a kid loved the SC1 soundtrack.

[@KhoiTran-xm1tj]

"HELLO EVERYONE! MY NAME IS LOWKO…” got me so excited every single darn time!

Lowko is no stranger to me... but this is the series that finally made me subscribe.

[@havenl2612]

GuMiho should now assume the title of INNoVation.

[@astupidlylongnamethatstoolong]

Has innovation really ever held that title properly in the past?

[@havenl2612]

Well...no...but I have been a big fan of INNoVation, whose power (well usually...) comes from pure hard-training and promised high level performance in every game. It seems like SC2 is now encouraging more creative play and making the game a test of "brain" than that of "muscle." In which case, of course, I love Scarlett and GuMiho, but I'm still hoping hardcore Micro players like INNoVation could shine again in the professional field.

[@AIRDRAC]

@@havenl2612 I really miss Bombers creative style in high level Terran, but luckily we have beasts such as GuMiho to lift the mantle! ^^

[@ghornisbae1653]

Debatable, maybe he should get the title Stubbornness. He made a style work that few others believed in, its only new cause he’s worked on it hard over the years, and he probably won’t be making many new styles, he’ll stick to mech and make it work.

[@QueenRaven516]

In game 2: Dark and Gu had 2 entirely contrast strats to be pitched at each other. Dark seeks the early game gutting of the opponent as Gu seeks to rush production of a control mid-game after his opponent runs short on steam from early harass. Gu had a great turn-around after surviving the early game rush, but once he started that mass push and began strip mining those outer bases, he had only one choice left, win now via bleeding Dark dry of minerals, and drones for an easy sweep or late game I lose due to lacking resources for my heavy cost army. Dark was in trouble a lot of that match, he lacked adequate answers for the comp he was up against, and if he had simply went with a more aggressive position by having bases on the opposite side of the map instead near his side, he may had been able to keep an edge over Gu. He pulled over Gu in the end however, for finally realizing that Gu's fatal flaw was he lacked any late game answers due to investing so hard into the mid-game control. All he had to do was bide his time and survive. In the end, no matter the composition, no matter the lead, if you have the timing, and the positioning, you can change a game in single moment.

[@Dadecorban]

I haven't paid attention to SC2 for a couple years but your commentary has made me start watching again. You are both mildly funny and insightful.

[@matthiasoc7141]

I will admit that I like to watch these while unwinding with a beer, and I don't always play as close attention as I should, but GuMiho's build order in the first two minutes was so close to the last match you cast that I felt like I was having a stroke. So much was so similar that I almost had to go back and check it was a different vid.

[@matmerz]

Your casting legit got me back into this monster of a game

[@BlackCollar]

57:00 - Gotta cast 'em all! :D Seriously though, I don't even play SC2 PvP and this is becoming one of my favorite channels. I mean here I am watching a 2-year-old video, lol. Keep up the good work, dude.

[@yarugatyger1603]

Cyan? That's no shade of light blue it's its own color, Lowko. I think he is using teal because it looks badass with blue-flame.

[@sinephase]

unseiged tanks are great against armoured units so I don't see how this is a surprising move, but yeah gumi really seems to know how to use units! :D

At about 56:00 he called us non-subscribing viewers. Well, now I HAVE to press the button.

[@gojete]

Great series man. Im doing the same mech play now in gold/platinum vs zerg and protoss and they dont have an answer. Cyclone is really strong with upgrades. I know the meta top lvl play is very different that low levels and in gold/platinum throwing a lot of cyclones is more effective than a bio ball. If anything because most of us have 70 apm average and cant micro, so just throw them forward.

[@iremembersleep3083]

Holy shit. I've been playing more Terran due to the incoming changes and hot damn this style looks right up my alley. Great commentary, Lowko. Never fail to amuse and inform

*Dark puts Spore Crawler where it would logically be more effective against southern drops* "This is very peculiar Spore Crawler placement."

I also had noticed unsiege mode tanks had higher DPS than siege mode tanks. Still i didn't expected to be able to use it to roll over his oponent that easily.

"ultimate bm... drop the mules" i lost it hahahaha

[@gamfc]

Just a random info that you mentioned mid-video. WW is gg because in korean keyboard layout, the "w" key is the letter ㅈ, which is a consonant with the G/J sound. And another random info you might see in other korean players gameplays: ZZZ is another thing that people type, because in korean it's ㅋㅋㅋ, which is equivalent of "lol" in english. Crazy good games btw, keep up your casts!

when you think of the upcoming balance patch.. i think gumiho is in a pretty good spot. shorter cd on medivac boost? haha gumiho is laughing.. thors with better AA? still laughing.. maybe he will even make the BCs work as some kind of late game harass tool or as a tool VS protoss.. i'm curious about future games of this madman

[@rompevuevitos222]

BCs will likely be better for front pushes, they have less delay between shots so higher DPS overall too. So they can just move and slowly consume any non-hydra heavy army Edit: just checked the wiki and hydra (with upgrades) have the same range as battle cruisers, and since they are an anti-kite unit now they can probably deal with hydraball too

GuMiho is so cooool man,loved the mech play,thats how its done!

[@colliningraham8838]

If Dark had a hand full of banes in game 2 GuMiho would not have been able to push in on him like that. He kept blinding clouding the hellbats an bunching up his hydras so the hellbats just walked closer and got better shots. If he had some banes just a few they would smack into them when as they walk forward after you blinding cloud.
