Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm - Harvest of Screams

Playlist: • StarCraft 2: Heart of ...
My playthrough of Heart of the Swarm, commented this time and in 1080p. I do my best to either get all the achievements or explain how to get them on a lower difficulty.

[@dingodyno9016]

well at least she had a cool backstory, Blizzard tossed the ball around with her background a bit, more it can be found here: starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Izsha :as for the mission, well i never had a problem playing it and i played it a alot of times now so i think it was just a driver problem you had, i also never remember saying that line at all either, which leads me to believe that Blizzard adds lines somehow with patchs that come out or something, cuz i noticed that in D3 there was a bunch of lines that were said (like this one) in the game that were never heard before during the first run, same thing with WoL, haha its okay, if it makes you feel any better ***** also never found it in his playthrough and we all yelled at him in the comments for it

You can use zerglings to trigger the ursadon to attack the protoss by running them to this locations 12:30, 16:40 and 19:15.

[@DelcoRanz93]

You know, Initially they were planning to have Kerrigan shown gradually rezergifying with her Carapace ripping apart her Hostile environment suit.

[@xXMemelord]

Dom Oranzi i wonder why they never did. the little details of itself wouldnt be too bad to create, would they?

[@limhoong464]

why did the game effect the other planets you go to later? example: -kaldir first Flash froze last longer and are more frequently, they last until mission 2 of kaldir(shorter version and not frequently). -Kaldir 2nd or last Flash froze is shorter due to protoss terranforming (only present in mission 1) and help balance the mission as you have muta or aberrations. -Char 2nd or last There will be more terrans and last zerg backups(scales the later you do char.) Mission 1: terran invades the tunnel and you must stop them from destroying the eggs(mostly mass marines marauder death balls, so to force make banelings and not just mass muta/roach/hydra.) tunnel will also be fill with other zerg units other than just infested terrans like ultras. Mission 2:Very few zerg survivors. Mission 3:less zerg backup.

[@JayborinoPlays]

Wait, do these things actually happen or are they your ideas? This sounds very cool!

[@limhoong464]

JayborinoPlays yes there just my ideas

[@k-leb4671]

+Lim Hoong It would be great if planets unlocked early but played later were made to be more difficult than usual.

[@limhoong464]

no, if u got primal kerrigan with psi dash in char mission 1, u r op because is mostly zerglings. when u have primal kerrigan u alrdy op in any mission.

[@s.m.2523]

I /beleive there was something sorta like that that was planned at some point also a whole 'planet infestation system' where you would choose worlds to infest. ... HOTS had a LOT of cut content during devellopement.

[@MalevolentSpirit234]

I mean, Protoss chased Zerg around long before the Overmind invaded Aiur, so I guess Kerrigan can kinda justify it. Another note, in Starcraft 1 Hydralisks were introduced waay earlier. I wish they did the same in Heart of the Swarm to make that third mission waay more bearable.

[@RedwoodTheElf]

You need to hotkey your army. Double click on a zergling to select all the zerglings on the screen, hotkey them to 2, do the same with roaches, and hotkey them to 3, repeat with queens and hotkey to 4, then select entire army and Kerrigan and hotkey to 5. Kerrigan herself would be solo on 1.

[@falconovic688]

I beat Heart of the Swarm on Brutal back when it came out, but man, I started playing again, to go through the campaign on brutal as before, and man I forgot just how much macro playing zerg required!

[@SeriousApache]

Why do you use wireless Keyboard and mouse? They are terrible for videogames. As well as wireless gamepads on both consoles (but you don't have other option here so if it fine to use them)

[@erythrodysesthesia]

SHE IS the swarm, dude, how many times does she have to say it

[@stormzarn3937]

Ok now, why isn't Kerrigan leaving the planet at this point ? She got Nafash's brood back and the Leviathan to transport them all, so why bother killing the Protoss there ? Not like the planet could be a good one to infest for the Swarm anyway.

[@liltonyabc]

Hydro-Iodic (as in iodine) Bile

[@alastorsova1805]

Kerigan is the swarm

[@limhoong464]

it look like the ursadon is charging at 2:15?

[@k-leb4671]

I wonder why the Leviathan doesn't even have Hydralisks at its disposal. What happened to it that diminished its variety of Zerg strains?

[@s.m.2523]

Presumbla the queen that got frozen on Kaldir took all the hydras with her before she went away ?

[@ventrue4600]

intressting that in the First and Second Mission Sahra Kerrigan in the Mission stay and now only Kerrigan so that she become again the "Old" one

[@longethdayv770]

Has Kerrigan ever heard of the word diplomacy ? 'cause she's killing daelaam protoss when she could just talk to them. I hate those missions because kerrigans's only justification is "protoss kill zergs too", even though most of them are civilians, and they are fighting in self-defense.

[@kaeljadondavis2779]

I don't think that was much of an option, seeing as the Expedition leader made the first move of attack and was already attempting to contact Shakuras

[@bunsonbaker4156]

Impure inn0cence Kerrigan never approached diplomacy in any of the missions honestly. She definitely could be defined as psycho bitchy

[@rotarucornel237]

U know zerg are beter on creep, right? U can spread creep with queens. More creep tumor faster spread.

[@dudkisc2810]

I agree Izsha is annoying. They could have made her just like the Terran adjutant, and she is, but Blizzard decided to give her the most obnoxious voice ever, which makes her much worse. In terms of this mission, I remember how much I actually liked this back when I played it the first time. I liked the concept of it, and it was on an Ice-world terrain, which I had been wanting to use in the Editor ever since Wings of Liberty came out XD

[@dudkisc2810]

***** Yeah, you obviously have the right to have your own opinion. I don't know, it's just after a while it gets a little irritating to listen to. I think it's also because of the reason that it doens't feel Zergy enough for my taste. Honestly, I think it sounds more like a female Protoss voice, but without the echo and Protoss feel. It's hard to explain, honestly. xD

[@dudkisc2810]

***** That is a really good point too! There was indeed a ton of information that could have been interesting to reveal about her. It's a real shame Blizzard left that out.

[@dingodyno9016]

DudkiSC2 and thats why she sounds more Human the kinda Zergish, but to be fair she dose have an interesting backstory to her, more of it is here: starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Amanda_Haley

[@s.m.2523]

I agree Izsha was a big missed opportunity. Besides her storry as an infested terran which would have been a good counterpoint to Kerrigan own storry (and Stukov's too later), or the fact that is memory serves she's supposed to be tied to the dark templar trilogy along with another infested character ethan stewart that doesn't even get a single mention (rememeber that series of book that were meant to be a big deal and an introduction to starcrat 2? No ? Well neither did blizzard apparently ?) so besides that, there's also a line when you meet her that old kerrigan used her to 'storre' her ideas and plan. Wouldn't it have been great if through Izsha the 'old' queen of blade (well an incomplete mental copy of her anyway) could have talked to the new one, thus offering a before/after contract ?

[@GekiSonic]

@@dudkisc2810 Dude, it's the internet, nobody has the right to their own opinion without opposition. Just like real life.

[@AnsonEnderBorn]

if ur not selecting all the units by dragging with mouse then just press F2, for christ sake

[@JayborinoPlays]

for christ sake, here is an updated playlist where I play the missions so well even you couldn’t complain: kzbin.info/aero/PLMmfhvBzj4FCdeLlIr-JRsGVtNXiHr1Zw

[@drmattconrad77]

If it makes you feel better I don’t think Abather is great either. He’s ok but....

[@Metalders]

Well, Izsha works just like Terran adjutors: she's just a manager of the swarm, no wonder she sounds so boring. ^^

[@GekiSonic]

I'd prefer "generic" but that's just splitting hairs, ha.

[@Atamosk-bu7zt]

Buys Logitech mouse, complqins it doesn't work. *achievement get: crappy tech, issues abound* (complain about your decision to buy either crappy tech, or weird peripherals every five minutes.) Total point for achievement: 1.5 Tl;dr: this is my only complaint about the video. Look, i get it, but complaining about new tech seems kinda scapegoat-y to me. Blaming lag, the other player cheating/hacking, or peripherals seems very sus to me and quite pisses me off. I run shitty tech and kick ass regardless of the pricetag.
