StarCraft 2: Some TERRIBLE StarCraft Cheeses! (Viewer Games)

[@sciencetube4574]

When you see that Zealot with 8 kills, remember those aren't Zerglings or Probes that he killed, no. They are cannons. That's a 1000% cost-efficient Zealot right there.

[@tomb8602]

8×150 = 12x100 so it's precisely a 1200% cost-efficient zealot

[@Ishlacorrin]

@@tomb8602 He then got the nexus kill as well so add another 400%

[@stofsk]

That Zealot is now a legend and grew up to be an Executor

[@naphackDT]

@Rei One step at a time.

[@FlyingDominion]

Some of the kills were pylons too.

"So the win condition of SC2..." every time I hear this, I know I have got the time for a dessert too.

[@JsonLim3]

Lowko missed out on the first game that the two spines of RaccoonMan died because they weren't uprooted xD

[@giggitygoo21]

if Ultrahugs had cancelled that 1 roach he could have made a new base with all of his Drones xD

[@RCG3.]

I'm looking out for that. They made it out of the first base and made it down to the second so far lol Edit:Jesus that first game was chaotic lol I'm too turtly for that lmao

[@iamscoutstfu]

That's actually one of the best cannon rush defenses I've ever seen. It was a complete failure, and cost the attacker that much more because he was convinced by his opponent that he was winning and kept on trying to pull out the win that was never going to happen.

when i was like 9 yrs old playing og starcraft i used to try and get as many kills on my hydras as i could, hoping they would turn into hunter killer hydras. would have been a cool mechanic. imagine marines getting promoted or zealots get green wristblades after like 20 kills on a unit.

[@dangkhoi5677]

That spine crawler of red in the first game is the decedent of the legendary spine crawler that saved the whole world in Carbot animation

[@Jabawalk]

I just love the 5 probes doing merry-go-round while others surrounding the cannon trying to kill it

[@SaltpeterTaffy]

That spine crawler that went across the map. That's like the Star Crafts spine climbing up the cliff.

[@highuchi]

Ok, gotta say, this is just pure gold, please, Lowko, do get your blood pressure up more! By the way, recently started viewing your videos and it kinda just rekindling the SC flame... thanks bro, keep it up

[@ACommonPlant]

Watching that spine get escorted and protected by the roach reminded me a lot of a tank being protected by a dps and 3 healers!

[@towelie5127]

what a game , ultra scouted the drones and lings coming in , doesn't immediately start making all the lings he could.

[@csmlouis]

Too bad he wasn't given the time for him to hug his opponent with ultras.

[@emdivine]

To Ultra's credit though, they do immediately start up 3 spines and a queen. So some defensive reaction was had, though not the most appropriate one.

[@lalijara]

I swear, viewers submitted matches are really funny, you made my day.

[@StormflameMW]

Lowko's thinking that, if he has to endure such pain, we also have to.

[@Boiling_Seas]

Shadowdragon fell into the pit of path-dependence. The first pylon was fine. Heck, even the first three pylons would have been a massive low-commitment advantage for him. He just needed to transition to something other than total focus on cannons.

[@SupaFighta]

He didnt even need to transition. He only needed to use the minerals he had in the bank as soon as he could, and cancel the buildings who had less than 3 hits left. he would've had at least 8 cannons alive and shooting if he did so, seeing the terrible defense.

[@NeonKix]

I am terrible at Starcraft, but this made me die inside just a tiny little bit.

[@sasugashogun]

It's possible the Protoss was doing a Cannon Rush Challenge for the hell of it, or for another KZbinr that gives out these challenges from time to time. If that's the case, the Protoss, to meet the challenge requirements, only had one option.

[@HM-yq3cn]

Amazing video! Reminds me of the good old Bronze League heroes, please make more like this!

[@CubeItself]

ultrahugs must be my favorite name i've seen from a lowko cast so far

[@afqwa423]

I haven't followed Starcraft in forever, but even I could tell that first game was such a clown car.

[@michaellewis742]

I can't believe I applauded the first game...splitting off those few drones from attacking the roach was the game winning decision there. Loved it. The second game started off just as entertaining but quickly died down when Dawnshatter stopped the rush. I was really fixated on the fact that he didn't chase the probe down with 3 of his own...killing the probe stops all the building potential of the rush even if a pylon does come up

[@balticguyltu9352]

I once killed my zerg opponent as zerg using a spine crawler and few zerglings! I think it took me like 7 minutes

[@lolshot]

and this is why i stopped playing sc2 a while ago. all people do is just cheese strat their way to the top. very little skill. and you defend against the cheese/rush strat and they just call gg. 5-10minute games get boring.

Doctor to Lowko while looking Lowko's results: sir, do you cast Starcraft games for a living? Lowko: yes, why? Doctor: because this blood pressure is not normal Lowko: starts remembering viewers games. Doctor: sir? Sir? Are you OK? Sir?

[@MsHojat]

12 pool doesn't need to produce lings. Don't forget that 12 pool used to be a common opener back when 6 workers were the starting amount, and it wouldn't necessarily get any lings either. Although it is odd to not get at least 1 pair of lings, since they're good for scouting and killing scouts.

[@inflatablewolfie]

This is quite a bit different than in the 6 worker days. 12 pool needs to deal some damage to offset the cost of the pool and associated loss of mineral due to the fact that you can't produce drones as fast. As such, it gives the opponent time to get a strong economic lead, which is a hell of a good step toward winning the game.

The funny thing is, based on how the cannon rush was being defended, if shadow had just cancelled their structures as they were about to be destroyed they probably would've won. Imagine how many more cannons could've been placed if cancels were happening.

When it come to drone and ling rush, does one need to save a couple of drones home so they can get the mineral income running?

I don't play but from what I've seen in casts, 3 drones can be left at home. Not sure in which situation doing which variation is best though.

@@indominusrex1652 You are 100% right. I didn't know that was a requirement.

[@indominusrex1652]

@@Iyashu5040 the overlord needs authorization from the higher ups in the lair to spread creep because the overlord vomits creep which would require a lot of energy for the overlord if it was in real life and i think the hatchery lair and hive are memory storages or something so it would make sense that the drones cannot build more advanced structures until they have a blueprint thingy available in their mind And yeah that would of been an easy win
