StarCraft 2: The PERFECT Couple!

Stukov and Karax, a match made in heaven. I ship them.

Previous mutation mission: goo.gl/00jHVs
One of the easiest mutation missions in a while... As long as you run the correct commanders. Karax and Stukov work like an absolute charm. We managed to complete the "Charnel House" mutation mission on Brutal on the first attempt.
A sinister disease runs rampant on this bleak and desolate world. Amon's forces have repurposed the miners' defenses to target your armies instead of the infected. Brave the Darkness so that the survivors can escape this nightmare and live free from the contagion.
Darkness: Previously explored areas remain blacked out on the minimap while outside of player vision.
Photon Overload: All enemy structures attack nearby hostile units.
Black Death: Some enemy units carry a plague that deals damage over time and spreads to other nearby units. The plague spreads to your units when the enemy unit is killed.

15:52 "I guess I'll put down some defenses here huh, just a handful" *proceeds to build 14529 cannons*

[@falconman69]

Snow Protoss are like salarians - they never have enough

[@makaramuss]

AND HE IGNORED STATIC DEFENSE IN WARCRAFT 3 AT STARTIIIING!!! RHAAAAAAARGH!!!

[@jvjd]

Close enough

[@dronewars7186]

Snow HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH And he left hes defenses after that hahahaha he just wasted some minerals hahahaahahahhaah

[@jimbalaia]

slowly but surely

[@Chippyishere]

9:09 First time knowing barracks walk faster during chrono boost

[@ladotb]

Me too

[@jackmarcer1691]

Don't forget that karax's energizer can boost them as well -> +33% attack- and movement speed if I remember correctly.

[@CrypticElements]

That's so weird.

[@zhupaul4547]

+1

[@Swap-511.0]

Temporary leg upgrade.

[@daburgerbandit1598]

13:24 These ships have one button to start up a system that will deploy an advanced cargo freighter from stationary on the ground into space. wtf NASA git gud.

[@underfall2749]

Nova: Oh my units die this is so hard Stukov: huh, what died? Karax: who needs units?

[@derpasuarusrexilous9999]

so the title is about karax and stukov, or the ever-loving-better-than-twilight-scvs?

[@alexpivniouk8421]

Definitely SCVs

[@_alex_the_wolf_--7091]

Kyle Pham All of these are better than twilight.

[@JoshSweetvale]

Karax's ridiculous defense skill makes all defense missions basically an auto-win and the Spear's powers are so much fun. He's quickly become my favourite guy.

[@FallenDragonMX]

9:12 have you ever noticed that when you use surge, the barracs of stukov run faster? ... i've never been aware of that ! :O

[@semprog]

It looks like your body at the first seconds

[@abernein1949]

semprog Yeah xD

[@LowkoTV]

Biceps the size of watermelons confirmed.

[@TheIndignation]

Solar lance with the fire upgrade is super good here. Also, did that Chrono Surge make Stukov's buildings run faster? Looked like it haha

[@JD867]

Ever push a void shard with a walking command center and Alarak's photon overcharge? It's the best thing ever :D

[@TheIndignation]

Jonathan Rhodes I've done it with a group of flying barracks, but I'll have to try that one!

[@EnzoSilva-zk6cd]

And burrow faster too

[@thecommentguy9380]

*Ship at 99%* "those monsters are already clawing through the hull" 1 exp left to mastery up... every single game greatest troll.

xd so true

[@ultralaggin8467]

lowko your a god, i was about to complain about you always play stukov all time then you say lets kix it up and im like, thats why im subbed

[@SkyLordPanglot]

While he was explaining his head was so close to match Swan's body. :D I actually laughed at the image of SwanKo.

[@makaramuss]

lowko: Missing best items dropped in w3 while they are in his sight Can look for someting while that thing just behind his base(do you rembember secondary bases at starcraft 2 campaigns? :P) Cant see enemy in FRONT of tree at battlegrounds but when its starcraft he can see 2 infested SCV doing cute stuff ... Lowko... you are greatest miracle ever born... :D

[@chloeblances2597]

[@jerrywilliams9934]

Local deserves much more attention on youtube with such quality video.

[@ahyamx]

many people can handle this kind of struggling level but, they couldn't play and explain with a commentary just like this player to make every single move so much easier to remember or understandable. Cheers LowKo ^^.

[@_alex_the_wolf_--7091]

Legend says that the three hero probes still are alive, building a bunch of cannons.

[@CtG-Games]

Well done~ I was hoping that you would do a different combination. Everyone has been doing that combination. TIPS: - There is a SIDE ENTRANCE at the first ship. You can go around to the east of the enemy camp to get high ground. - Energizers don't really make things stronger; they make them shoot faster. Also you should siege them up so they provide an additional power field. - I see you've been doing my top bar-click trick to shoot faster! Now to take it to the next level by rapid-firing! xD - ENERGIZERS! They make things shoot faster! - Raynor. Spider Mines. :B - You better have those clowns ready for the next video.

[@feron_ve]

CtG Wait what clixk trick ? How so i drop down orbitals much faster ?

[@alterranlongbow5067]

the way the overcharge mutation works is that it gets the overcharge after taking damage

[@JagiraGames]

SEE Lowko that is why you always need to do the bonus mission!! xD

[@hibanamain5709]

Karax and Abathur also work pretty well on this. Just go hots campaign mode aka only queens and you good.

[@anonyanonymous1900]

I've been thinking, and the only mutator combination I want to see now is Reanimators, the Propagators from two weeks back, and speed freaks. I think it sounds like a difficulty Lowko would enjoy.

[@HiopX]

Hey Lowko I have some ideas for future videos: - introduction to each Co-op general and mission, and your top5 of both categories

[@theSato]

at the start I was still waking up, and I saw what appears to be your head on Swann's completley ripped body and said "wtf Lowko got buff.."

[@horner385]

You guys know that probe in the Solar Core that Karax repairs it lile everytime? that probe is the one that warped cannons and was kept alive by the healing beam from the Spear of Adun, just repaired constantly

[@monsterrus1963]

Hooray for SCV love!

[@zxKAOS1]

From the very start of the video... your head on Swann's body! Nice StarCraft complex we have there ;)

[@Obsidian0Knight]

LOL at the end, just short that exp. I nearly died!

[@andreoorschot]

Karaks+Nova worked on brutal too, her mech units get healed by the repair beam and bio ones get healed by the drone

[@schwarzkralle2654]

Very nice karax play :) wouldnt mind to see you play stukov once in a while again either tho But anyway great vid, keep it up!

[@illican]

good thing you remembered to upload in "60"fps

[@krissimonis3604]

Yeah, that's a perfect storm of commanders right there for this mutation. I ran it this afternoon with Stukov myself, easy victory.

[@ryanfrantz8994]

Do we get the clowns and cake in the next video instead? ... Lowko?... Clowns?... Cake?

[@armstrongboys23]

Alco...

[@thecommentguy9380]

Lowko+Clowns=Lowklown

[@JohnCLiberte]

the cake is a lie

[@callslightning]

Those SCVs! "Whoa, whoa, whoa, we're there for each other! Whoa, whoa, whoa, we'll repair one another!"

[@Metalders]

So that's the lesson: whenever possible, do the bonus objectives! ^^

[@ShinySC]

You can Chronoboost your ally's structures in co-op, so if you're not researching upgrades as Karax, you might as well use your 2 boosts on your ally's buildings.

[@meomeo9776]

at 11:19 that was, I believe, a behemoth of the zerg.

[@sugarqbs]

is it just me or is lowko funnier than usual

[@tynado7807]

“So many dead, so many at my command”

[@pogliok8340]

We also made this with Karax and Stukov. But we havent bothered with the second base. Just Bunkers and SD from Karax is enough. I also used Chrono-Mastery for Stukovs Infestedbuilding. Stukov is by far the best Commander this week followed by Karax and then Swann.

[@vasiledragos2115]

You seem to be on something lol, your like ultra hyped

[@Umbra_of_Emberspike]

This may be the perfect couple in defense and exactly how I too got this on brutal with ease, but I say Stukov and Alarak are the perfect couple otherwise. My only problem was having a weak enough graphics card making me go down to 2fps the whole time, so I had to play stukov.

[@Josh-sx4fz]

@lowko should do these missions with a few different commanders if they are this easy.

[@shayden598]

most commanders are unplayable for this mutation cause of the black death, only karax, stukov, maybe raynor or swann (mass static def) would work

[@gaged.8062]

Lowko *reasoning out of doing bonus obj* Lowko at the very end: If only i did a hand full of bonus obj i could have got to level 80!

[@Ragnarok6664]

The endless horde and the high tech defense..

[@SangoProductions213]

Holy shit Lowko. You got ripped. What's your workout plan?

[@grillbottoms]

17:08 spear of the doom

[@brd_exe]

lowko is one with swan 0:18 fair#

[@GhostMihneaRo]

I too played karax first time this mutation but I wanted to go zealots into carriers with the repair beam and the carrier drones healing up the army but it didn't work cuz zealots were too weak.

[@pallingtontheshrike6374]

Have you heard of Swann Fenix Mass carriers?

[@junlinliu6112]

build a Twilight Council and research the energy recovery speed for the batteries and sentries. That will be so much helpful.

[@mrflaminghead1]

10:58 I think he was doing his best Kendrick immitation

[@hu-ry]

Lowko, the master of SimCity ^^

[@TheCaptainAtomic]

"I had clowns ready, I had cake. I had tons of...No."

[@fyssengel9620]

Lowko, what times are you often online, so I can finally see you online, and maybe even play with you :)

[@ninjacya3219]

I learned something new when I beat this mutation, Stukov's missile turrets can uproot O.o shocking I know.

[@ianlogan5817]

i realy liked this veo

[@physxme]

played this mission using Stukov with a guy who played Nova. Nearly got myself killed when I didn't pay attention and let a couple of plagued SCVs repair each other. That really devastated my bank for a moment.

[@dmg8162]

the crescent moon thing became kind of a meme on this channel =)

[@alanmccormick6911]

Lowko, you should also play the mutation on brutal with the 2 commanders each week that you think would be the HARDEST to win with... just to see if it can be done.

[@JR-cr2zg]

That will never happen!

[@alanmccormick6911]

Hey.. he said he wanted a harder mode!

[@repeatplease3330]

how do i make my sentinels build multiple structures like that instead of selecting one at a time?

[@Ishlacorrin]

" more quickly "..... Karax the word you want is 'Faster'.

[@MugenYomi]

If Blizzard makes a higher difficulty setting, and lets us vote on it, my vote is for the name "Lowko."

[@FullBringer1]

*sees Lowko posting something about Starcraft* I am shower you with love,likes...and awkward comments. For the Swarm and for Kerrigan heels !

[@horner385]

Hey Lowko next time get the upgrade at the Twillight Council that improvez the energy regen for energyzers because the Shield Battery beneffits from that too I saw that your batteries had energy depleted all the time oh wait you got that, neeeevermind

[@FretkaCienia]

If you take the chrono boost mastery you can chrono the solar forge more efficiently = more energy

[@albertbergquist2113]

It looks so easy when you do it with good commanders it'd be fun to see you try it with the worst ones, like Noca+Fenix on this one. :)

[@ss5gogetunks]

Surprised he didn't make any bunkerlisks! They are only units when uprooted

[@marikmeier5605]

he should have said: now out of spite i'm gonna make antoher barack ^^

[@luskito]

@LowkoTV you should try Karax with mass immortals. Their ability can shoot on flying units, so u do not need any other AA :)

[@syth9]

It’s funny because “priority 0” in the software engineering world is the most urgent kind of issue that requires immediate attention haha

[@justlasse7773]

Can you sort Coop and 1v1? I just watch 1v1 and is difficult to figure out in some titels, which kind of gameplay it is.

[@theprogenitor9087]

16:05 I get turned on at his sadistic smirk and laugh there.

[@nickomon7822]

Notif squad coming through

[@runic9217]

Oh your couples are pretty good!!

[@torkusqerdoon1062]

you should play it again but with commanders that don't work well with this mutation. give yourself a challenge :P

[@n00bas23]

Carried a Nova with stukov couldnt carry all the way with karax This mutation mission seems straight forward.. Stukov + karax = OP team

[@lightsoaring4699]

Match made in hell you could say

[@FlyingDominion]

16:48 "fresh infested" infreshted. 20:20 blaster Billy

[@headnut57]

Hello, Im trying to bind karax abilities to my hotkeys like lowko did, but cant seem to find a way , anybody got time to help me out ?

[@olavlomeland2183]

In the Hotkeys tab go to Global and check the bottom of the list in Top Bar Powers, thoose are the ones youre looking for.

[@armstrongboys23]

I totally ship it

[@luyendinhtien1987]

21:31 smartwatch?

[@arnehenkler8391]

Hey Lowko, you get this wrong every time: The Bonus is worth 4000 xp on brutal. The 100% additional xp applies to bonus xp as well.

[@arnehenkler8391]

Haha Haha look at 21:10 Dude. 'Difficulty Bonus 22000 xp'. that's 20000 for Mission and 2000 for Bonus.

[@ajcannQn]

Lowko sacrificing bonus objectives needlessly, and it looks like, they'll be paying for it, with their levels.

[@willt2810]

Nub question, why do you over-saturate your base? Does it really help?

[@SkipperDan]

He sends the extra workers to his expansion

[@kinciscorner]

Will T it works, until a certain point. for example in a normal game, max workers is 16. You can get over that, but each extra earns a little bit less, it's still good until you hit the max 24. Then you don't earn extra minerals anymore. So in a normal game, around 19 workers is quite fine. in co op, since the mineral patches is more, you can also go for more.

[@Fireluigi1]

Does sushikiun watch these videos after you upload em?

[@razgriz8856]

#fair was my favorite :D

[@torkusqerdoon1062]

the next highest difficulty should be called Diabolical

[@wylliamjudd8175]

Why do you never use solar lance?

[@shayden598]

ikr, its so strong, much better than orbital strike...

[@CrazynToughKiwi]

It's mostly energy inefficient. IMO it's only good used against large waves coming to your bases.

[@wylliamjudd8175]

That's not remotely true. Even if you're only worried about damage to a single target, Solar Lance deals 600 damage for 50 energy, as opposed to 50 damage for 5 energy. That's 20% more damage per energy, even if you don't account for the larger area it hits. I get using Orbital Strike, but when you unload all of your Spear of Adun energy on it, you might as well throw a solar lance in there.

[@GameDogLeader21]

more work when its not needed, this is why people want things to be hard, so you have to use everything in your arsenal. If the difficulty isn't up for it then it doesn't matter.

[@thelunchbagwarrior9115]

10 Orbital Strikes is capable of dealing 2500 Damage, because it's 50 Damage x 50 Energy, which is much stronger than Solar Lance Yeah, Solar Lance is good agianst a big group, but Orbital Strike is more efficient when damaging a single target

[@ronon93]

How do I use the waypoint Stukov is using at 3:59? I think it's called Psy waypoint?

[@ronon93]

Yeah, I haven't played it yet. Am still leveling up all the commanders :P Thanks tho

[@shayden598]

its on the top of the screen, you can also set the waypoint if you select your barracks or the colony combound and just click somewhere on the map.

[@georgeduluta814]

out of context im gone buy a coop commander so who should i buy

[@andhikasoehalim3170]

Karax can counter the blizzard mutator by his autoheal too

[@superdoner]

No "Slowly but surely", no like. Sorry

[@andyblizzard]

Dom Ott no "for the time being", too. Wtf, Lowko? We miss those. :(

_If I only did the bonus objectives in previous missions_ Don't think like that... you need to cancel out all of the missions that failed because you guys went for the bonus objectives!
