StarCraft 2 series between Serral, the number one Zerg and player in the world, and Clem, Europe's greatest Terran player. Lately Serral has been beating players like Maru, Cure and ByuN and he's been making it look easy. In this match he goes up against another Terran, but this time one that's a little closer to home.

@friedNchips 10 ай бұрын

The terrans benefit tremendously in terms of resources. Thanks to MULE, I spend less resources on SCV and only have 1 type of mechanic shield-up, so there is a lot of resource benefit The scanning range is also very wide. Blizzard have to block the Battle Cruiser for 5 seconds from using the Yamato Cannon and Tactical Jump LIBERATOR & Ghost Sniper so OOOOOOPPPPPP. On the other hand, Protoss & Zerg need to invest more in ground and air defense upgrades respectively Even Zerg & Protoss' defense towers cannot recover resources, but Terran has another resource benefit with the bunker recovery function In terms of resources, Protoss & Zerg are at a huge disadvantage overall The zerg is still garbage INFESTOR skill Deleted but Ghost skill always non Deleted!!!!WTH! Zerg units are expensive to upgrade and take a long time to complete The tech building is also expensive, but you have to invest 50 more minerals called drones there and pay 50 minerals again to produce the lost drone Are the zerg a cheap tribe? Fukshieeeeet. Zerg most expensive and inefficient tribe Zerg adds minerals and gas when transforming units No race is more expensive than the Zerg One last thing on my mind. Terran Cyclone & Battle Cruiser can auto-attack Protoss Phoenix & Carrier can auto-attack Zerg have no such units Blizzard needs to patch these issues quickly nonono, please delete the zerg SC2 only requires Terran and Protoss Blizzard Always just trash balance thank you so much!

@gewinnste 10 ай бұрын

In the 1st game, why did Serral pull his defensive roaches away from his main? Neither did he have any spores, nor spotting ovis next to his main (same in the other games btw)! This allowed Clem to kill his main + nat without any punishment, despite it being an obvious target (he dropped several times at the same location before). And in the last game he constantly let his vipers get killed or EMP'd without a single spell cast - that was so hard to watch :(

Most the others, he was steamrolling Serral. Wild to think about. I can’t think of anyone else that can make serral seem unable to touch his foe.

Hej Lowko I've been following you for few years now and this is my first comment so far. So I have 2 questions for you. Do you have a playlist on how to start playing stacraft II on more serious level, progress, what to work on, watch for, what should become second nature to you, mental approach and so on. Like a in-depth level by level streamlined teaching/learning curve. Second of all, since you are still an active starcraft II player, I do not know if you dwelved into Arcade much but would you be able to recommend top 3-4games/mods for each section of co-op, pvp, free for all apart from the built in co-op commander and mutations part? Would much appreciate your point of view on any of these, because most of us who do play are not pro-level, like to watch pro matches but while playing its all for fun and a bit escape of reality, if you catch my drift. :) Keep the good content coming, and cheers :)

@SD-jf7nb 10 ай бұрын

I'm sure he meant burrow move - continuously spawning swarms could burrow w\o the upgrade, as it only spawned when burrowed, but couldn't burrow move. Dunno about now, but I think it requires the burrow upgrade, although only accidental swarms typically ever get burrowed. I always thought it would be cool if they continously spawned non-flying locusts when burrowed, but could launch waves of flying locusts when unburrowed. Anyway, I hate them, but they do have a ridiculous amount of dps. Infestors cannot burrow w\o the burrow upgrade, but can burrow move once they have it. I used to always put them on control group while they're chrysalis, so I can burrow them as soon as they pop: otherwise I forget I made them, F2, and derp them to their deaths.

@irrelevantfish1978 10 ай бұрын

Well, one thing that's going on is that pro-level, late-game Terran is OP. In the case of TvZ, Zerg's only decent, mobile anti-air comes from spellcasters, which just fizzle and pop due to EMP and Snipe unless the Zerg has significantly higher APM and can multi-prong hard enough to overwhelm. Hopefully, the upcoming patch fixes that, but I can't see how. IIRC, the _goal_ was to maintain Ghosts' effectiveness against spellcasters, the Hydra buff seems more like it will delay the onset rather than fix the problem, and I don't recall any meaningful changes to the Corruptor.

@KingOfNebbishes 10 ай бұрын

@irrelevantfish1978 They claimed the goal was to make people less reliant on mass Disruptors, Ghosts, and Banelings. Disruptors got a direct supply nerf, Vanelings got a damage nerf, and Ghosts got a nerf that doesn't do much to discourage mass Ghosts.

@irrelevantfish1978 10 ай бұрын

@@KingOfNebbishes What I'm referring to is the snipe nerf. They specifically said in the proposal that they nerfed base damage but gave a hefty bonus against psionic so that it would be less effective against general units but just as effective against spellcasters. IIRC, they used the word "spellcasters" and specifically mentioned Vipers as an example.

He seems to know their timings better than they do in those games, his scouting is perfect, not just incredible, it's perfect and doesnt have a single flaw. Clem was just one of the very few who are able to get into his head instead of getting Serral in theirs at least in this series. I truly believe that Serral is just on another level. Doesn't mean he is invincible but his stats do speak for themselves if he wins 90% of his matches on the highest lvl in the world.

@polca4love 10 ай бұрын

@@xandara75 Yes? I was just pointing out that this video does not mean that zerg is not OP, since given Serral stupid superiority over other players, both terran and protoss, this series could be considered an anomaly. Even if Clem has a "good" percentage in this match up. And honestly, after people insisting in another video how well Clem played this one, i think that in the third and fourth matches, Serral gave up too soon, which is something the finn has done other times, like in the last World Championship. Serral is indeed in another level. He is so superior that after a fashion it gets boring. Imagine the Dream Team of Barcelona 92. The six matches that are played in the Olympics? Nice. For the length of an entire season with that superiority? It would get boring really fast.
