[@WinterStarcraft]

Hopefully you guys enjoy, I was focused here not on just casting the matches (I think Tasteless and Artosis did a pretty great job of that) but instead focused on going beyond just the play by play.

[@destro-tt6ve]

WinterStarcraft Thank you you are a great caster😀

[@tobiashmm2322]

WinterStarcraft did you need to ask iem for using there content?

[@joshsimi8680]

WinterStarcraft I didn't think they need permission especially since this is for educational purposes.

[@faridmk3707]

those two clowns have nothing on you. I am serious. I literally mute them when they talk. I'd much rather watch you analyze paint drying, than them describing a game.

[@riceballanimations8962]

where did he get the replay for you think?

[@kevinxin1545]

Dude, the only damn reason that you don't have hundreds and thousands of subs more is probably not many people play starcraft. You're like the best starcraft commentator I know, this is damn awesome. Thanks!

[@stevejobs5919]

he is the best commentator man, leagues better than LowkoTV

[@Mathdoesgamez]

Live stream commentators are great because its live. WinterSC is great because he breaks it down and does analysis.

[@R1s3s]

A very interesting and palatable commentary, thanks a lot Winter

[@visceraljourney]

I like Winter commenting style so fucking much more then those official commentators, who bubble up fake emotions non stop. His analysis and showing player thought process.. and all in calm voice, gush

[@nikowardenski8044]

Casters dont have the time to really analyze everything while the game is going on. As in soccer the analysis happens after the games and is prepared while the game is still running.

[@burntcharcoal3]

Racoon Jack those casters are not fake.

[@burntcharcoal3]

Racoon Jack and they need to appeal to a wide audience, and make the game interesting

[@notMattGarska]

I think the commentators are fantastic to be honest. I would have no clue how to be like that while looking at a video game, and same could be said about 99% of people I'd say, how do you even do that? Still, I do love these commentaries

[@visceraljourney]

I am glad you enjoy them. I just dont. I understand that they need to put on a show and so forth, but I just prefer Winter commenting style a hell of a lot more.

[@timothylutrick193]

Thank you for the sentry explanation. I’ve been playing for awhile and never took the time to understand specific unit abilities. A video explaining all units abilities would be an extremely helpful tool for players who only play one race. I recently have been watching your videos and enjoy every second of them thank you!

[@kirktown2046]

Damn dude, you're the best streamer I've seen. The first vid i watched happened to have bad audio quality or something and I didn't quite get your humor so thought you were complaining... so I ignored you for months until I watched a few cheese hours and... damn dude. You've got solid play and are pretty chill -- You've got all the little quality of life overlays and just have the stream itself setup nicely. Makes me want to get back into streaming! Keep it up, W.

[@shavais33]

Very high value material. Haven't found this level of analysis anywhere else. A few things have changed, but the majority is still relevant 16 months later.

[@absentminded55]

Winter, i gathered the courage to finally try starcraft about 3 1/2 weeks ago. Started out dabbling in the campaign and then played vs A.I. for a week straight while i scoured forums and youtube. Shortly i came upon your channel and after binge watching your videos i finally jumped in to ranked. I'm Gold 2 (still not high and i sit with the majority of players but i have a pretty positive win-rate with TvT really only thing lacking) and climbing as Terran and everything i know is partially from experience and mostly from watching your content. So thanks.

[@toaonua523]

Played a Co-op game with TYTY once, randomly. He played as Raynor, and god his micro was a sight to behold.

[@gabrieltataru7366]

Getting into the players heads and explaining how they think and what they try to accomplish, this is really nice ... thanks for the effort.

[@albertlogan7403]

I truly appreciate your "going beyond". Great fun to hear your input.

[@guetali]

ur doing an awesome job ... thank u so much .. of coruse its nice to see live with all the hype and the tension but so great to analyse that after and u make it so clear ..

[@TheIronEagle14]

Thanks WinterStarcraft for doing these super long series! Just recently found out about you and really enjoy your casting style!The live games are great too!

[@amerys]

When I have learnt more about SC2 PvT in this commentary than I have ever within the past few years... GOD DAMN WINTER!!! You got some naise commentaries

[@BillTheConquerer]

Fair to say Winter is to Starcraft as Jon Gruden is to football? Love the analysis and info here!

[@connormchugh8456]

Extremely informative commentary. Learned a ton from this that I otherwise wouldn't have known had Winter not dropped those knowledge bombs! Keep up the good work, yo.

[@jonathanbody3890]

Love the analysis Winter, this is priceless. Thanks!

[@TheKnightofold]

I watched this entire thing while studying, time well spent.

[@Quardawg]

Awesome vid, I am now a fan for life !!!

[@simovihinen875]

Whoa! The art in the intermission screen... serious skill right there.

[@anthonyrobles8450]

i really enjoy the way you communicate with the audience i used to watch HuskySC and Lowko but idk for some reason you ring true in my heart buddy keep up the good content ;3

[@michalkowalski1618]

Why have protoss players stopped going for the double robo production? I guess maybe you can get more units from the gateways, but isnt the backbone of the army the tech units? even doing like 1 colossus and 1 immortal production to even more deal with the ground, then just some meat shields and stalkers vs the vikings. And yeah its a big commitment early on and reduces your map presence early on, but couldnt that be helped by say a mid game transition into the double robo? after doing some sort of a pressure play. *Edit* In game 1 stats goes for it at 12:30, why not try something like 9:00?

[@raimb3948]

did anyone notice at the start when winter said "deal with it",. the sub notification typed it at the same exact time ... coincidence ?

[@tornagh9200]

We all want those dank fresh ehm, mineral patches, instead of the old used up ones.

[@QianBing]

wow!!!! amazing analysis. I learned so much from this

[@golikogoliko1850]

Hey Winter, keep up the fun videos and such. You are the only sc2 gamer I'm subbed too, love the way you keep the fun with a splash of starcraft-education and personality! Keep growing, keep going. :)

[@stevethechinchilla]

Great breakdowns

[@sfukuda512]

Good cast and analysis. So many mindgames. My only question, with $100,000 on the line, how did SoS not win?

[@PutinKPA6]

Awesome analysis!

[@marshie1337]

"stats with 341 apm, what a scrub" god i love you winter

[@jerryy538]

can't do a uturn doing 60? hold my beer !

[@recklessroges]

I'm surprised that there isn't already a youtube video of "Worlds fastest u-turn in a car". There are plenty of hand-break turns, and the u-turns seem to be political.

[@fouronetwo813]

Even F1 cars don't take hair pins at 60 LOL

[@assiaisindegyara4905]

F1s dont even take turns their built to go really straight really fast. They aint doing no fucking uies.

[@snak9742]

48:00 why build an engieering bay there?

[@antoinegrenouilloux4908]

What an amazing video

[@James90jsp]

yo winter.............................. gg. edit: how much do u bench?

[@jonasvsn]

James90jsp lol

[@ArcaneMage54k]

160 supply

[@mrzewo]

This video is the best I've ever seen on a starcraft match :)

[@SquirrilahFish]

I'd like to see Blizzard give you a choice of where to put the add on in SC3 (48:01) or just make the addon a vertical add-on, like a loft.

[@Gredddfe]

2:08:55 26 probes go down and I don't really know how it happened and Winter didn't mention it.

[@p0ma147]

1:06 timing was perfect. Deal with it

[@gabrieltataru7366]

You should write Blizzard to be officially casting the plays with the big boys .... I think your subscribers will support. :D

[@cobyreimer6918]

Very different casting style then vs now. Also it physically pains me that 2017 was 4 years ago

[@Andresm092]

I'm learning how to play so I'd rather watch this kind of commentary and not the live and emotional one. I don't even find StarCraft gameplay that much exciting (at least for epic commentary) compared to other games like dota or csgo, but it is indeed a much harder and skillful game. It's really enjoyable to watch the best players beating each other.

[@guelly1267]

Hey winter I love your streams but sometimes I would love to ask you a question but why is chat disabled?

[@Phenom98]

I miss this map so fuckin much :'(

[@12crenshaw]

It's stupid. EMP is like instant damage storm with feedback at the same time. They should make a delay on this like with fungal

[@professorsnap6232]

Terran is just too op that make this sc2 not balance and dead

[@vladoatanasow7878]

Dedication never rewarded;(

[@denizcoaca8625]

are those your paintings?

[@septasc5436]

20:43 my new ringtone :P

[@stanislavgordinskii886]

Hey, Winter! Nice comments! :) I wish you gave a bit more details and tips during these casts! :P Anyways, my question is: what happened to all the TYTY vikings when they were landed in the 1st game? What killed them so quickly? The protoss army was not there so I relapsed a couple of times and could not get it.

[@Str8Wildcat]

Stanislav Gordinskii a single disruptor hit killed 90% at once if I remember correctly

[@stanislavgordinskii886]

Oh that's sad winter did not show it. :(

[@kebecois71]

Good Job !

[@Dustieno]

Stop Pausing it for 3 minutes after 2 seconds of game play!

[@justingardner4332]

whos gonna charge vs one reaper

[@gcg8187]

Turn down that annoying ass music. Great vid dude looking forward to the winter career growing

[@gcg8187]

Actually the musik is pretty cool

[@Shamrockin]

i dont play and probably will never play starcraft but watching the breakdown of high level play is just so interesting..

[@dragonzipper3426]

These dudes have 300 apm whilst I'm sitting here at 26 apm. I don't think I'm going competitive just yet.

[@bostonholland3704]

Nah man its all about your EPM and TPM, just pump those up, and you'll be pro in no time.

[@tim1210]

Winter, for a terran is it worth walling off mineral lines like they do for zerglings to keep those toss shades out? Might have made the difference in game one?

[@Kisoro]

Guardian Shields shut down cyclones too ):

[@FxGatog0ds]

Bob Ross are you there ?

[@SquirrilahFish]

Stats hit whole army hotkey! Haha

[@SquirrilahFish]

Haha, I said this like 10 seconds before you investigated it.

[@untergeduckert]

thx

[@JC-dz5ur]

fantastic casting. I prefer your unique play by play comments. It sets u apart from the rest of the emo, fakey commentators

[@mitchbuoy7191]

The sc2 mug lol

[@looots1320]

Stats = observer king

[@notMattGarska]

I have seen loads of casts and matches... is it my impression or does protoss basically almost always lose????

[@riceballanimations8962]

well this was the finals so he won all his series up until this point....

[@FerocLPs]

Protoss did not always loose

[@chrisbennett4564]

At this time Protoss was dealing with some issues as all of the staple builds at the time just were not working anymore. Thus to win players had to try new things and in trying those new things they were exicuting them less well as they had practiced them less this led to protoss having amonth or two of a slump but they are bringing it back this sort of thing happens all the time.

[@zachhudson3137]

If 2:08:03 isn't the truth, I don't know what is lmao

[@ShailenSobhee]

You probably mean @2:08:17 : "Shit's about to go down" :) :)

[@johnreeves3876]

[@johnreeves3876]

[@unkn0wnv1rus3]

Notice me senpai

[@TheMarc9096]

this apms wtf really

[@elmuerte17]

Keep pausing the game every four seconds to spend another twenty talking about it, I really like when the action is interrupted over and over.

[@adamryll1271]

It's pretty great

[@syedreza8722]

Falconpaladin for better commentary/more personality

[@zulzmei]

nice comentary, but 2:28:29 ... no offence the moment i see that i know im skimping through the video. that misses the hole point of your video. i seriously dubth many wached the hole video all the way - beggining to end. just pick one very good game and analize that, or do important interesting to see bits

[@MrMister5555]

I watched the whole thing over 2 sittings. I loved it.

[@nibekspeed]

I did so ur not right at all ;P

[@gcg8187]

zulzmei I agree

[@kontoname]

Those are ALL very good games you cookie. And he casted them very entertainingly. You do realize this was done on a live stream? I watched the whole thing and so should you.

[@Kyle-kt9qr]

get out of the video I want to watch the game not you!

[@FerocLPs]

lel

[@jarrettrost]

Good god. You talk and pause too much.

[@untergeduckert]

thx
