StarCraft 2: Spirit's SKY TERRAN vs Astrea's SKY TOSS!

[@StraxAsh]

YA THE LOWKO OPENER!!!! YOU DID THE THING!!!! That made me smile so much. Thank you!

[@Amoeby]

3 stalkers chasing 3 marines in 3 different directions is so damn beautiful.

[@kozatas]

I hit the like button after that

[@southpawdevelopment]

He did the thing!

[@hopz4077]

The THING!

[@maus6199]

mom, moooom! come! he did the thing!!!

[@PrimalRockSlapper]

I love it when he does the thing

[@highlordalarak5111]

You know the thing?! You know what I mean? 😎

[@mho...]

one does not simply do his thing every day!

[@Alex-rt3po]

Those DTs did so much work. After Spirit sacrificed so many of his SCVs, attacking the orbitals and drawing out scans did so much economic damage. Spirit was broke for so long, he couldn’t even fully repair his BCs

[@KennyKenKin]

He did it! He did the intro!!!!!!!!!!

[@zxa96]

I first played Starcraft 9 years ago and I never knew SCV stood for space construction vehicle until this video.

[@xitaris5981]

..filthy casual.. (jk :P )

[@pedroguerreros1699]

you can read it on the sc1 manual, is easy not to know it, i'm not sure if that info apear in any other place except for wikis XD

[@noisemarine561]

They should have called it Star Craft Vehicle

[@Ichorslick99]

15:47 I really like this nuke location. He's already nuked the gold mineral line twice, most players would send units to that location expecting him to nuke it a third time. I like it.

[@SchmittySchfin]

4:50 That’s not true. The center of the circle on recall is the nexus, so you can move the circle to control where the units will go. In other words, if you click so the units are on the left of the circle they will pop on the left side of the nexus.

[@adelier11]

Actually, you can control position of the units in recall. They appear corresponding to their initial position in recall area. If you see mines in the left side, you can click recall so stalkers are in the right side, they will appear on the right

[@gaborfabian3967]

Someone must've seen Florencio Nexus rush :P

[@kelurb]

@@gaborfabian3967 its how i know

[@volanceleste]

28:24 that's a very interesting location for landing that command center.

[@lelanddyer9461]

GUYS HE DID IT! Today is a good day :)

[@morningcoffee4522]

Intro is back!!

[@yourname6553]

Always brings a smile to my face

[@hopz4077]

@@yourname6553 YES

[@keiser6656]

16:40 That is quality casting. Love your humour and how you comment while keeping a bit of silliness. That's why i keep watching every videos. Thanks for all the good moments and good laughgs !

[@Daniel-rd6st]

16:45 The Seventy Maxims of Maximally Effective Mercenaries: 20. If you're not willing to shell your own position, you're not willing to win.

[@danielw1383]

Finally the singing intro again. Instant like, the rest of video no longer matters 😂

[@guillaumedanisbertrand6097]

Here's an idea, you could show the amount of minerals mined in the early game when theres a lot of mining disruption to show how much of an impact it can have on an opener.

[@You-ul8qw]

Phrase to add to the lowko bingo card... 'It's one of those small moves we don't see all too often...'

[@Dank_Lulu]

2:09 that right there was so damn smooth, I cannot not tap like.

[@Malacite]

"Sky toss is much more efficient" - 5 void rays immediately get vaporized by Yamato Cannons XD

[@112mausi123]

@13:30 you say an ambitious drone. a slightly delayed cannon rush I say ;P

[@phunglung69420]

Lowko feelin old school, original introduction and Lincoln park !

[@ezraclark7904]

28:25 What is that command center doing? It's sliding off the grid.

[@Zhienerich]

Speaking of Terrans having no melee unit. I am very dissapointed that blizzard never added the Predator doggos to co-op. Not even enemy AI uses it

[@aleksanderkozowski9414]

I love your greeting Lowko :D

[@chriswolf3988]

INTRO! Thanks for doing it :)

[@BouncingTribbles]

Lowko! Just a heads up, you can control where units get recalled. The dot in the center represents the Nexus and the units will be placed in a circle around the Nexus based on their positions in the AoE. So if you wanted to recall a couple voidrays on the left of your nexus you would just have to make sure they are on the left side of the AoE

[@scriciscrici3148]

Dear Lowko, if you ever stop saying "HELLOOOOOOO everyone, my name is...." As your intro I will declare war to Netherlands. And I will come for you.

[@electricitybomb]

"tempest dps is high but not that high" - tempest dps is actually less than that of a stimmed marine. Even against massive its about half a carrier's dps

[@TyphoonJig]

Yeah, tempest have 16.5 DPS(air) with the 3 attack upgrade. Stimmed marine have 21.9 DPS with 3 attack. Though tempest have +11.8 DPS against massive units (total 28.3). So it's 1.3 marines against those. For comparison a stalker have 17.9 DPS against armored. So a tempest is worth approximatively 1.5 stalkers of DPS against armored massive units. Corruptor have 19.1 DPS against massive. Vikings have 23.7 against armored. That is, obviously, before armor is taken in account. Marines suffer a lot more from armor. They lose 2/3 of their damages against BCs when tempest lose barely anything (9%). But overall, as anti air, tempests have a really terrible damage output.

[@conelord1984]

Yeah. They do have a good alpha strike, but the dps is very low.

[@mho...]

great game, i really dont understand why terrans hate the raven in the lategame soooo much.... would have been great for most games in the last weeks! imagine anti armor rockets & "free" detection in these fights!

[@PatrickstarPhD]

space construction vehicle... SPACE CONSTRUCTION VEHICLE. I've played this game for over 10 years and that's just blown my mind

[@ashra8281]

@lowkotv you can control where you end up when you recall BTW. It's based on the position of where you recall

[@jessjs57]

He did it! Brought a smile to my face! Liked the video even before I watched the match.

[@HaidaHelmer]

The thing is back!!!

[@xelibri21]

Lol... years of watching SC2 (never played it much apart from campaign), finally learned that SCV stands for Space Construction Vehicle...

[@nocomment6421]

Yes, He did his Signature move

[@chaywarburton3488]

Just submitted a video for your stream! It's silver league vs gold but the loser WAS SO TOXIC.. hilariously so... I included screenshots of the after chat too! Please cast it xD A friend gave it to me... holy crap xD

[@josuahahn9047]

Best Intro 😁

[@evanparish3994]

I would love for Loko to have a Q&A for his subscribers and fans.

[@Meschi-]

Lowko's Opener always makes me smile so much

[@gerbenrampaart8042]

Ok first the Nice game and now this. I think I'm gonna watch all of Spirits stuff from now on.

[@pantsonhead9694]

HE DID THE INTRO! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@KnightBubux]

It just hits differently when lowko does his intro..!!

[@justinlauria82]

It's all about the way he digs deep for that "weeelcome back"

[@ferallhamster970]

Down below the like button in the discription… hinting at something are u lowko? Lolol

[@e7venjedi]

Thanks for the cast Lowko! Was a nice way to eat my bachelor dinner while my wife was out for the night :P haha

[@cesarverduga5966]

Yay original opening!!!!

[@heat76ers]

Maru popularizing extreme turtle... Should have done that on this exact map against Serral

[@xavierroche6686]

Dat opener🥰 thought the video was 1 or 2 years old X) sorry for not watching them all

[@reaper8113]

Day 114 of asking lowko to play Emperor battle for Dune. Almost 1/3 of a year

[@mirekkratochvil9341]

videos with singing in the intro are just better.

[@billk2742]

FINALLY the intro!!!

[@DarkRavin07]

Spirits just sacrificing command center after command center and not even repairing his last mining one to those dt's up north hurt. An all the scans compared to just making a raven or some turrets. Like dam

[@zeldaholic]

Hey Lowko - what are some of the most fun matches you've ever casted? Could you provide some links? Or - other viewers - could you provide some links to some fun matches?

[@velocirapper]

I hate this early armoury shenanigans from terran, so frustrating! Also with recall I heard recently (I actually thought it was here but maybe it was from PiG) that you can control where you recall to, if your units are to the right of the recall circle, they come out on the right side of the nexus

[@joeslambers3537]

oh boy this was amazing!

[@MAlanThomasII]

The BCs made great hit-and-run units, but I feel like Spirit spent most of that game with no win condition and no answer to Astrea's units, especially the DTs.

[@1KamaronConClase]

Very nice game! And I agree, once in a while is great, but slow games are not ideal if they become the norm.

[@Ghost-dx8mm]

Thanks for posting :)

[@joyjumper14]

It's amazing how accurate Lowko is at his intro, half the time I think, wait have I seen this video before?? Just perfect matching of pitch along the way and pretending W doesn't exist

[@DudePossum]

8:10 Hellbats? After hellions transform, their attack is.... pretty short-range. Does that count as melee?

[@Shazbot277]

wow! a Lowko intro

[@gabrieldinglasan]

Missed that intro!

[@jamesm7324]

Banger game

[@joep6017]

Thanks for your great and very fun casting. I am a Russian Linguist and I'm trying to improve my Russian in fun ways. Is there some Russian SC2 casters that you can recommend to me Please! And just some Russian game casters in general?

[@reteiddlefnosch1244]

28:22 whats going on with that floating holographic orbital command?

[@dragon9898]

I am curious if someone would do all marauders and 1 ghost and nuke the main base. The marauders would tank all dmg while the nuke comes down

[@yamilabugattas3895]

¡Gracias!

[@twofish777]

The old intro!!! :D

[@lefm_]

For the current cost of BC, it should really get some buff

[@atesinsan]

OMG OMG HE DID THE THING!!!

[@methodicalmayhem5881]

Sky Terran functions far more effectively with supprt from units such as Vikings and Ravens. You can't brute your way through a Protoss army.

[@GrahamNificent]

danggg I wanted to see sky Terran win :P

[@grfn3135]

Hey Lowko! Great channel! I watched the grand finals yesterday. Thanks so much, you did a great job casting it. To me though I have always thought Zerg is a super strong race but ZvZ is, unfortunately, the most boring matchup. How do you feel as a caster?

[@junweihe8229]

no one talking about the OB surviving basically the whole game pretty much above the whole Terran army??

[@vvva15]

Terran Melee = Hellbat

[@myleshubert3540]

epic game good commentary as always lowko!!

[@Hlodolog]

As a SC noob, i wonder why don't these pros build photon cannon in each mineral line as soon as they find out their enemy goes for widow mine drop? I know that every single mineral counts, but it still must be better to spend 150 on cannon than on new probes and lost mining time... right?

[@mikegarcia4808]

It's crazy you can kill 25 workers against toss and it doesn't affect them.

[@linglee8688]

Wow how did I not know what scv meant till just now😂

[@goldensea03idk51]

He did the thing :)

[@gabrieljulien412]

He did it

[@VinayKapadiaVK]

It has been 36 days since you last cast a Maru game.

[@csmlouis]

Throwback Thursday is a thing. I know, I am a millennial boomer.

[@thowe354]

Maan. I prefer Protoss, can't get more badass than a maxed out Zealot but everytime I see a marine get melted, a little piece of me dies inside🤕. Shout out to HeroMarine for holding it down for all the marines out there

[@zaksmith1035]

Lowko: HEELLOO everyone, my name is LOW-KO!!" Me: Why is autoplay putting on a game from 3 years ago??? Oh,wow.

[@Zulu4impi]

Hello 🎶 ...that be Lowko 🎶... cheers mate love your cast intro, always makes me 😁 Great cast as always 😜🌋😳 Have a great weekend 🇺🇦👍

[@TheJaniv]

Hi, Can anyone explaine to me what is it about the "...a free one" on every video opening?

[@Rorimac67]

Ok, that's the other version of: Terran wins every late game with mass Ghosts: It looses without mass Ghosts. :-)

[@RushAnthem69]

Protoss FTW!

[@ambulancekun3142]

Apparently harstem doesn't like carries on a side note who said to "never do math on stream/video" first would love to know.

[@amythystmiriel]

No idea, but I've seen it in Minecraft videos too

[@antoniorafaelzamora8072]

I was today years old when I discovered what SCV stood for… o.O

[@captainfischi1029]

Its not Ironbank lowko, i like to call it Terran heaven. ^^

[@oldzas]

Крутая игра, супер.

[@mikegarcia4808]

The Terran did all that damage and never once got ahead in workers toss need nerfs. The carrier needs interceptor count reduced by 2

[@coldnapalmFJ]

Why didn’t toss just build one cannon in each mineral line for detection and defense ? Would’ve been way cheaper than losing 50 probes…

[@dothim6944]

Finally!

[@jamesclayton9177]

"Spirit Air in starcraft"

[@robv8044]

i used to play starcraft 2 a lot and loved it, but for some reason now if i play it makes me feel depressed, so i play down of war 2

[@pablovirus]

So many salty noobs talking about balance in the comments it's painful to read. Great cast Lowko btw

[@ICManiac]

Can't we rename it to SKYRAN?

[@normanharrison8215]

TvZ is the most fun game to watch, but Battlecruisers versus Carriers? TvP is like real space wars.
