Imagine being that one brooding being pulled back thinking you'll be promoted to a zergling, or even better a broodlord. But then you witness everyone start shooting you as a sacrifice for more broodlings.

[@csmlouis]

[@wanderhillen2435]

​@@csmlouis I think in the lore there's not really such a thing as "being that one broodling". The hive mind controls everything and individual zerg units have no individual minds. So any broodling being pulled back to be a sacrifice would already know exactly what is going to happen and why, because it is part of the hive mind that made that decision.

[@asterpw]

In your last Reynor vs Maru match 10 days ago Reynor tried this strat at 38:35 but he only attacked his broodlings a couple times. I knew it had promise. I think changelings would also make excellent targets

[@alexsis1778]

Changelings require some energy though. Creep tumors are an initial energy investment and then technically unlimited after that

[@ToiRChannel]

9:24 The map is called Data-C because of the little lore the creator made for it: "The interplanetary surface scanner has found great amounts of resources on planet 37/ data-set C. The catch: It's at the bottom of an ocean under the sea."

[@Johnnymagnet92]

32:30 - that was a perfect example of both territories meeting

[@brahmdorst5154]

Yeah, I’ve often had the same thought when watching late game zerg pro games. I’ve never had the skill to test whether it actually works. I’m about to watch this video and look forward to seeing how it pans out.

[@TheBleachedazn]

It's extremely micro-heavy because the broods don't automatically march towards the enemy so you have to control them while keeping a few back that you can switch back to broods and attack with. That, and you need an insane # of broodlords, along with good control w both the infestor and viper.

[@ShadowTheHedgehogCZ]

It's very micro heavy, mostly because Broodlings have very short lifespan. So you need to keep switching between Broodlords and Broodlings all the time. And you are basically screen locked to that one location on the map. If you look away and all your Broodlings in range die, then you have to start again by finding something else to attack to spawn the first wave again. I mean, it's not too bad to sacrifice 1 creep tumor or one Zergling, but this strategy forces you to keep sending waves manually in a given rhytm. And the player needs to do other things in between the waves as well.

The Overlord didn't head in that direction until after the game was unpaused; what if Dark saw Byun spamming his hotkeys and thought "wait a minute, what two things would Byun hotkeying so rapidly this early in the game?" to which the obvious answer is "two proxied Barracks".

i do LOVE this kind of terran style, on the defensive part, putting up plana everywhere and turrents and tank etc.. it makes terran feel like TERRAN! from the lore. would like more focus on having less ghost and more battlecruisers late game and especially superlate game. i honestly think the emp should be removed from the ghost and given to the battlecruiser; then it would have to make the choise whether to yamato or emp and it would make battlecruisers a must to have at least a few off in super late game, which would be really cool. ghost are honestly too good at too many things as it is and counter too many units; FAR more than any other spellcaster, they basically make every other spellcaster of Terran absolete bc it is just too good at everything already- and that makes me sad, i want to see armies with ravens and battlecruisers mixed in there ^^ would love to see the Zerg swarm host redesigned as well; free units can't be balanced in a proper way so it would be better to make it a spellcaster so it's locust are dependent on energy instead of free and so that they can actually created a SWARM! with a handful of them, so we again don't see insane masses of them but more like an addition to the armies^^

[@jasonlynch282]

Feel like a couple options to break this is possible sacrifice some thors to build 6 BC's to Yamato and jump on top of the broodlords. Sacrifice some thors, for some liberators attacking in a highly spaced out concave. (To reduce amount of fungals and parasitic bombs splash damaging them. Cheapest and probably most effective is a ghost or ghosts cloaked all dropping nukes at near the same time. Broodlords are almost utterly immobile when doing the mass broodling micro. Even if they stop and flee. Then the terran is free of the broodlings and can advance and do damage.

[@ferallhamster970]

not gna jump to balance but am going to point out some problems nonetheless. BCs get assaulted in a non fun/enticing way by corruptors, so no point, libs get got by corrutors and ghosts cloaked are just as good as uncloaked with 17 overseers, so either they are safe, and too far away to hit a successful nuke, or just get killed.

[@Brooke-rw8rc]

Imagine only launching with half the brood lords in the first volley. Then you immediately target the rear-most broodling and the other half launch their broodlings. By setting up a staggered launch within the control group, you can effectively launch volleys twice as fast, meaning you don't have to keep pulling groups back to target.

[@unheardhydra6112]

@LowkoTV It may be called Data-C because it is a digital (data) sea (c). Or the map maker saved the file under that name and forgot to change it before submitting it in the contest.

Wow this is incredibly impressive play from Dark. I feel like I've seen this Broodlord thing done before (I maybe even did it myself 11 years ago), but never any significant results from it. The amount of unit management do do that is crazy. You need like 2-3 groups of brood lords, then also micro-manage the infestors and queens (or corruptors?) at the least as well, but really probably Vipers and other units on top of that.

My theory as to why the map is named Data C, and the pun there-within is that the map maker is playing on a phrase from the movie, The Little Mermaid. Where in which a crab sings a song called "Under Da Sea" under da sea....date c...supporting evidence: in the map description the maker maker describes it as under the sea. So thats why its hotta under dee water, under data C.

[@okwaho5316]

To make late game less Terrain favored they need to do a couple things which I think would also be fun. Ultralisks, no longer can be sniped. Additionally the space between their legs allows lings to pass through single file. Second is Nerf Hydra but allow them to be build at a lower tech tier, but at the current tech tier allow them to get an additional upgrade making them what they are now. Lastly this is the one I can't quite think out but either Lurker, Swarm Host or Nydus needs to be better somehow. I want changes that will 1)make zerg feel more zerg and 2) get less used units back in the mix.

[@cyberkekosis]

"nerf hydras" made me firstly think in the way of "hol'up, they already only have 0 health" but then i realised they do also have a million DPS. probably the pre-lair appropriate nerf would be lowering their attack speed to the roaches' level so the roaches become actually more DPS worthy. but OTOH, hydras can shoot air, unlike roaches, and some research like "paralysing spines" which makes hydras deal additional damage (of about +100%) to light units plus some research like "frosting spines" which makes hydras deal additional damage (of about +100%) to armoured units (you only can research one of them so hydras won't suddenly become OP). this way their price would realistically be lowered to that of 75/25 like in roaches but probably with lowering the supply count to 1. or maybe throwing a "simplified DNA" research instead of all this thing. it just makes hydras pop in couples like zerglings effectively making one hydra cost 50 minerals/25 gas/1 supply. at what cost? lowering HP and damage output of course. 90 → 70 and 12 → 7 is probably the way to do it. they also should become smaller and lose their range upgrade after that. Lurkers and SHs are completely fine, no need to change anything about them though.

[@REgamesplayer]

Data-c for me always sounded like data-sea which can be in reference to data center which is under a sea. Which in fact would be a logical solution to a huge computing building if we would have sufficiently advanced technology to construct buildings like this. This is because all that sea water would act as a coolant for all the calculations which we would do in a datacenter. Thus, naming data-c. It also might mean that there is so much data here that it is almost like a sea. A sea of data if you will!

[@jacobjimenez3240]

I believe "Data-C" is a double entendre referencing the file formatting of Data:C, Data:D, etc. in your library, as you can have multiple drives to store your files. It's also saying "C", as in "Sea", so maybe that's what the name is about.

Also, this was one of the reasons the Terran meta had stay on bio instead of Mech against Zerg, since broodlords are SO slow the bio composition works wonders for this kind of crap. Who needs infested terrans and instant FG when you have blinding cloud right? What's next? mass ravens with infinite Auto-turrets? LOL

One of the other casters at HomeStory Cup pointed out that if you say "on data-c" as in "where we find ourselves on data-c" it sounds like "on-da-ta-sea" as in "where we find ourselves **under the sea**." This works best if you pronounce "data" da-ta instead of "dayta."

[@ruffianeo3418]

My guess is, that soon, Terran will modify their late game composition and add something very mobile (speed banshee + marauder (against the spores outside the deathball area of the zerg), maybe), such that when those 30 brood lords are in one place, they can start knocking down stuff on the other side of the map. They have to get that composition right, before they have no more gas income, though. In WOL, there was a reaper upgrade which did tons of damage against buildings. I would love to see that upgrade again, maybe in the fusion core. In WOL, 3-3 reapers with that upgrade could trash whole bases in seconds...

C is a homophone for sea, and "data C" is a homophone for Captain Datassey, a naval captain who played a huge role in winning the first Indochina War, and claimed to see an aquatic alien life form on one of his missions. That looked really real, but you knew it couldn't be true didn't you? That's why it's good to think about what you're watching on TV, and ask questions, kind of like you just did.

One of the coolest games I've seen this year probably.

Lowko. It's Data-C. C spoken as *sea*. There's your underwater element. A "Data sea".

32:05 --> Lowko trying to sound like he didnt saw this game before. haha, its funny :)

[@MikeOldani]

Data sea.. The phrase "oceans of data" has been used, and data "flows" and forms "streams" and can be found in a "data pool". So they just choose a water name less commonly attracted to "data".

seams like broodlords are broken with Spore Crawler and queens

absolute implementation of '입스타'

[@nmgaro2156]

That tactic, if ever gets to be used constantly, will for sure trigger a change on the broodlord only being able to shoot broodlings if the target is an enemy unit/building...the thinking behind it is for sure a masterpiece, to out range the thors, spores to prevent air units, few vipers to control the aisr with para-bombs if needed, and infestors to fungal everthung on the ground.... worst case scenario for zerg, you get a draw. No army can go through that unit combo
