[@ethanfrench9111]

There may be spoilers but here are some explanations for the player’s behavior. I’m not sure for how long Bly had been streaming for, but for Beasty this was a WARMP UP game and one of the most interesting warm ups he’s had. When Beasty was pro I’m not sure if they ever faced off, but Beasty said from the start that Bly was definitely to take the cake. 2:12 yes, that was indeed an anti-Bly bunker. Beasty even said it was a matter of time before Bly all-ined him so it was guaranteed to get value. 6:50 Yes indeed. Beasty had sniffed out the spire and came really prepared much to Bly’s surprise. 11:49 Apparently all the Overlords were on purpose? Not sure how true it is but whatever the case, that follow up ravager push had Beasty thinking he was dead as well. I think he was a bit confused as to where all his opponent’s minerals went... 41:23 Wait, does he not have anti air? He’s got nothing and he’s sure to be mined out at this point.

[@thegoodthebadandtheugly579]

Bro, Bly was just fucking around.. making overlords anytime anyone on twitch said “overlord”, delaying his build orders to give Beasty a chance.. Bly is way out of Beasty’s league.. I like Beasty, but he is no Bly, bro..

[@ethanfrench9111]

@Đăng Đức Trương Ok, I have just gone to his channel, clicked videos, searched for overlord and the video is 3rd on the list ;) I literally found it in under 5s! I think it is this one, title: "I Disconnected My Opponent in 1v1 With ONLY Overlords & Changelings!"

Lowko should play 1v1 against beastyqt for best of three. Everyone who approves of this make sure this comment remain on top. What do you say lowko?

I like this idea, but Beasty just has to go mech and Lowko will lose instantly. Also Beasty is the better player.

Ohh I think I saw this on beasty's channel. He said "were gonna make a bunker because, you know, it's bly. Even if you don't use it right away eventually you'll get some use out of it because he always all-in at some point."

[@afinjer]

Fascinating game! And it was unexpected that vikings counter swarmhosts so good LOL

[@dennisfechner9969]

When you look at the resources lost chart at 35:44 you also have to keep in mind, that Bly spend tons of minerals for 40 overlords, which are basically useless at this point. :D So the difference is even higher...

[@shazbotgaming7576]

Brenda is alive! May she live forever.

[@ShibalotonSeattle]

Bly can literally use the overload block ability which is to place all your overlords over the battlefield, to block beasty from seeing and controlling their units and kill them.

[@trevordrakenor2063]

Good day Lowko, this is something that jus pop at the back of my head. You know those baneling drops and the sneak attack people tend to drop in Terran mineral line? What if, they have bunker there and when the enemy decides to drop by, SCV can get into the bunker/command center and thus they have less risk of dying as they have more option to find cover/escape the bomb? Running is a go to most of the time when enemy pushes in and you dont got troop in position to defend. but for those drops in the main base and natural or maybe places where drops are more common than getting pushed by main force, having a 3-4bunker close by for SCV to go into seems like a good idea. Even mutualisk will have to destroy building just to get 4 scv, instead of many scv at once. buys time for troops to come defend too if they decided to stay.

[@Necroneer]

Yeah Bly mentioned after the game that he wanted to play SH in a situation like this, might be an excuse but it makes sense.

[@taylordana3740]

[@timothyallen3117]

Bly, secretly wondering how many dropper lords filled with banelings it would take to instantly kill all the terran buildings and win the game, subconsciously builds more overlords.

[@albertnorman4136]

I'll agree it's a shame that Blizzard doesn't let ultimate units be ultimate in the late game. My attempted fix would be to give them more upgrades, so that rushing them early doesn't become the be-all and end-all of SC2 strategy, but by the late game there's been time to buy those upgrades and really bring units like Ultralisks, Battlecruisers, and Carriers into their own. For ultras, I think it'd be interesting to give them an upgrade that allows a crawler to root into one, perhaps at the cost of a bit of speed while carrying that much extra weight. Maybe broodlords could have a dropperlord upgrade that gives them two units of 'bunker space', permitting a queen or hydra to perch on top of one and fire out? I wouldn't be adverse to seeing transports with 'door gunner' upgrades that allow 2 spaces of unit to shoot from the transport.

[@f1r3-y_l1on2]

[@jkobain]

[@illuminutty9723]

Probably the Overlords are game conditions. Like every batch of units created, make two of the larvaes into Overlords.

[@sylvariatzaka]

woah what a game. ALL THOSE OVERLORDS THOUGH!!! AHHH!!!

[@androgenius_alisa]

This wasn't anti-Bly bunker. It was Winter's terran guide build

[@miles8385]

REEEEEEEEEE Lowko has a ZeRg aGeNdA!!!! jk jk I mostly just watch, but I see where you're coming from. Then again, I also feel like it sort of plays into the zerg theme of being able to grow very quickly but relying more on quantity than quality. Tit for tat zerg units don't trade evenly with their counterparts, but zerg are able to grow faster and get those units out earlier and in larger numbers than the other races. Also I think in this particular game you had Bly investing so heavily in ravagers he didn't have enough roaches to tank for them. Consequently he lost ravagers at a higher rate than he should have, and that contributed to the massive units lost disparity.

[@devinray9132]

Beasty is no push over. Honestly probably the best SC2 youtuber as a player of course.

[@dataexpunged3914]

I feel like bly wanted to make so many overlords that the opponents can't see anything other than overlords

[@nexirall3431]

I remember when I did a silver league match against a very annoying widow mine/thor terran, I used to mass overseers just so I could continue mindlessly a-moving my roaches into his potential deathtrap. And guess what, I won.

[@daethalion1725]

Guys. I've figured out Bly's ultimate strategy. Cloud the sky with overlords so that it becomes impossible to micro troops on the ground, and then rush everything with banelings and roaches!

[@Daniel_ParkDNA]

If you watch beasty's stream, he always builds bunker vs zerg

[@Telhias]

I feel like building that many overlords is not just a mistake but a colossal f-up. I am pretty sure Bly did it on purpose as they were not built once but quite regularly. Maybe he wanted to try one of Harstem's beating people with stupid stuff?

[@mathewstormblessed4706]

32:00 Bly started mining from the base he attacked

[@niklasschroder9564]

Lowko math 2020: Both have roughly mined the same amount, but the Zerg has 8k resources more lost. Beasty is below 400 minerals. How did Zerg lose minerals it did not have? :D

[@TyphoonJig]

Units on the field and buildings, Terran have 8k mineral more value on the field.

[@evernewb2073]

Lowko: "microing this many hotkey groups is _very_ difficult" broodwar players: oh, oh child... seriously though, the game literally can not process enough command inputs per cycle to play "perfect" Starcraft 1. even at the absolute peak it's still all just people bailing water as best they can.

[@sabbathjackal]

Remember when people used to fill 30 overlords with banelings and send then to bomb the enemy base?

[@deSolAxe]

To be fair... I always got the impression that as long as there is a zerg in the game, the cast is more often than not following them more..
