What impresses me the most about uThermal is how he commentates all his games. How!? That's too much brainpower for me.

[@fatalvenomX]

Practice vomiting your thoughts. You’re not so much trying to be a commentator for a crowd but saying yours thought process out loud. A concise and informative commentary just goes to show how thorough his thoughts are. Speaking out loud like that can also help your mind reaffirm decisions in stressful situations rather than reverting to instinct.

[@chrisklugh]

@@fatalvenomX There is a truth to this, but have you ever tried to voice your thoughts out while playing a video game that does not actually make you worse? Sure a certain practice could make better, but there there is overall a reason why most gamers stay silent and focused.

[@BlackRainRising]

@@fatalvenomX i watch a guy in EVE Online that streams a lot and he will say his targets and what he's doing like he's running a fleet when he's flying solo and it seems to go along with this thought process... he's telling us what he's doing and how his mind is working in the fights and we get to see the outcome as he does it, have taken up similar things kind of whispering to myself when playing warships or league or any high focus game

[@AJollyTeddyBear]

He’s nuts he doesn’t stop

[@lynk5902]

I watched this from his POV. It is still nice to watch this with a caster.

[@lynk5902]

uThermal was "speedrunning SC2". Meaning he had to have his final attack push start around the 6 minute mark (and he would pull all the boyz and stop mining).

[@sloanNYC]

uThermal was all-ins by 6 minute mark. So he had different options. He's a fun channel to watch.

[@davidg7737]

I have watched this 400 times and can confirm this is a certified Lowko classic

[@LowkoTV]

400 times in the 2 hours that the video has been up for?!

@@LowkoTV it´s a time traveler

[@txopin]

I've read your comment here and in uThermal channel 489 times and u are a certified SC2 certificator. xD

You're almost half of Lowko's subscriptions with that many accounts!

[@koohkooh4557]

We of the time traveller Community do not know this man

[@user-ur4nl6dq2x]

uThermal out here churning out content for all the SC2 creators! 😊

[@jellowpy9243]

uTherma gameplay with Lowko commentary! Perfect!

[@daikatarokamegawa542]

I do agree with Lowko. Stalkers don't generally fare well against Immortals.

[@jp7089]

ah man, I wish the cheese machine won, but great crisis management from Elazer. And of course, Lowko, your casting is legendary. Thx a ton :)

[@Dr.Spatula]

The hard time limit prevents transitions and makes it neat impossible to win against pros of the initial attack fails

[@chrisbadgerlord1037]

Thanks Lokwo for all of your hard work! :D I am sick right now and going to physical therapy and it's hard to walk sometimes! But your videos truly cheer me up and inspire me! From the bottom of my heart, thanks for making my day pog with all your great and fun videos!!! U rock!!

[@LowkoTV]

Hope you will be better soon Chris! Thank you for watching my videos and the nice words!

[@Josh-99]

Thermy is just great! I love his easygoing attitude and crazy challenges. It's often non-stop laughing when watching him.

[@Nozdormu1982]

15:20 Yes those immortals do a lot of damage against stalkers :P

[@JaronRichards]

A video title that marcj would be proud of 😆

[@zacherymanning4239]

He had a fine wine selection to go with the cheese

[@PradyumnVij]

Omg Lowko, talk about anything else but the carpets in Royal Blood please 🤣🤣

[@DarthTicius]

Con-cave, con-vex, trial-angle... Lowko spitting math facts!

[@musicretard1444]

"so this is essentially a two base all in off of two command centers"

[@milletmongoose]

Lot of good medivac play and the other flyer unit. I guess you could say that he's the FLYING DUTCHMAN.... amirite?!?!?!

[@strickenlol]

"All I know is concave and convex" might be the most SC caster-y thing I've ever heard you say lmao

[@boreduser12]

Haha, lowko is cashing in on uthermal cheeses too. Awesome. Everyone benefits from fun players like uthermal, rather than snobby SC2 famous people (I won't name them)

[@justadudeN72]

Lmfao alright, the fact that you used his title format got an actual laugh out of me. Good one

[@thdjjfsfh]

Joking: "I am not going to do geometric shapes okay. The only one I know is the concave and convex." That's like saying "I don't do animals, the only one I know is spoon and fork; and the cat."

[@Dr.Spatula]

I can't help but wonder if Lowko knows the beauty that is the Penguin Brothers

[@jaiclary8423]

Almost twenty years ago I lived in Bordeaux, France. It was a difficult year but also a great experience, I made some long-term friends and lifelong memories, even ended up smoking out with one of my professors at the end of the year. I still remember when he, very high, and very proud, declared that we could use "tu/toi." Basically what I'm getting at is it's a shame I didn't buy a raclette grill because holy shit this is a lot of cheese.

[@dakkath414]

33:04 holy sheet, hellbats CAN transform back into hellions!

[@gokublack8342]

It's interesting you bring up 2010 2011 era. Yes learning how to deal with cheese was absolutely required if you wanted to climb at all you weren't getting out of Bronze if you couldn't stop cheese Edit: The days Reapers built as fast as Marines and Zergs were getting bullied by DT Rush 😂 (couldn't build spores without an Evo chamber) and Zergs all going 6 pool rush or 9 pool into baneling bust 😂 Also Toss building pylon on low ground and warping units into your base (You could warp onto high ground from a low ground pylon if you had vision) and ofc this was before LOTV nerfed the warp in speed. Oh back then Reapers had a special attack against buildings where they threw Bombs at them doing extra damage (like in the WOL campaign)

[@megadeth-1a885]

I believe Marc is semi retired thats why he just messes around in tournaments

[@danielizzi7176]

Retired from the pro scene, but he does KZbin and Twitch so technically 'professional' StarCraft player?

[@nasterkub]

16:45 you said "doodoo"!!🤣

[@wojciechsura]

uThermal. A Terran Has.

[@milviodeleon4421]

We need a uThermal vs Has series…idk just saying @LowkoTV

[@JoshuaBenitezNewOrleans]

I can just here Mark “let’s go to game number 2”

[@n00bster83]

Love Thermy's speed-run 6 minute challenges

[@AJollyTeddyBear]

Uthermal the underdog we needed

[@boreduser12]

Funny how Lowko refered to the marauders as immortals at 15:15 ish

[@callummunro1184]

we need more Uthermal content haha get him to do more spinerush to gm!!

[@J9045hello]

i love these pro cheese tourney games lolol . I don't even play SC2 (FPS main), but love these - very nice

[@LrdGranticus]

Maxpax needs to read the book of cheese. In the second half of the book you learn how to counter all cheeses.

[@RubbeldieKatzflott]

you and marcj are one of the best combos for SC2 KZbin :)

[@matthewshuck5190]

uthermal is second to only harstem in the fun pros to watch. As silly as his games and challenges are....Harstem is currently doing a probe rush challenge and there was a game where the opponent was doing the same so there was a 2 minute base race

[@gundummies]

as much as I wanted uThermal to succeed with that last play, hats of to elazer for doing an incredible job.

[@LGB-FJB]

I enjoy watching uThermal.

[@TheMythh]

Oh so good, love uThermy, fun games!

[@sirmathias8852]

When you already got the recommendation for uthermals video but you wait for lowkos video

[@lonelymonkskitchen7493]

I really love watching uThermal's challenges, however watching from his POV it's really difficult to follow the gameplay. Big ups to Lowko for casting this

[@BlackRainRising]

I've had a hard time watching any of the pro gamers PoV plays, can't see much of anything and it's almost seizure inducing

[@dustinmorrison6315]

If MaxPax, a master cheeser, can't know a three racks attack is coming, how in the hell could a lower level player know?

[@MistaMasta420]

Most low-level players don't even lift up the depo in time, just walk in to the main base, you'll see nothing and no gas.

[@varoonb6593]

Great viewing fun, this would be so frustrating to play against. But man is it fun to watch

[@contemplate1789]

I heard the word "switcharu" - did it stick after watching F1? ))

[@darklajid]

15:17 obviously Stalkers, they don't fare really well against Immortals 😛

[@nsa3679]

i did play the both games, but I have no idea whats going on

[@zapoyou2]

This video title lmaooo

[@tomasduchan8275]

his strategies and challenges are nice, however still waiting for a match vs @LowkoTV

[@Ghost-dx8mm]

LOVE YOU LOWKO!!!!!!!!!

[@AevenSong]

There's only 1 flavour of uThermal. SALT

[@nenno6748]

I imagine the title of this video is an omage to uthermals title. = P

[@liquidpropaganda]

Why does lowko hate so much on uthermal? Uthermal makes phenomenal content but he always talks down about him. Give uthermal the respect he deserves for his interesting gameplay, show him up with your own game or stfu.

[@patrickb1303]

It was the Oscars. And no one cared about them as usual. At least no one who has any respect left for themselves. Watching rich actors celebrate themselves yay!

[@billygreen3431]

Except for the fact we got Brandon Frasier an Oscar for possibly the best movie of this year

[@patrickb1303]

@@billygreen3431 that’s cause he was the only human story of the Oscars.

So how does one define "Cheese" in SC2?

[@Leonhardt04]

why lowko saying "stalkers" weird like STAULKERS STAWLKERS

[@kindlin]

Today on KZbin News, man discovers _accents!_ More at 11.

[@jameswhitmore1984]

Is it just me or is MaxPax often times very shaky in the early game it seems like if more pro games went for early pressures they would have a lot of success against him. It seems like he always has trouble holding early pressure and that if he does survive its by the skin of his teeth. No disrespect to uThermal though his micro of early game units might be as good as any of the best pros.

[@calvyoel1515]

Nope. He doesn't do straight up games. Hah.

[@RavagHer]

i mean if u know chances are 50/50 to being worst if u play a standard game. just cheese. cuz chances are its gonna work. like blizzard has built the game around cheesing so u might as well take advantage of it. i mean especially for 400 bucks. i mean cheese, get the games over with and chances are u have a good chance of winning.

[@hilairebeatz]

This terran lame 😐

[@alpergaran7394]

Many are OK with it but I can't really have any respect for a player who does cheese in almost all of his games and on top of it he even brags about it like it is top-level gameplay. I can't even stand guys like that. His game style tells about his character too.

[@hydraulichydra8363]

That noob got owned. He just does this because he's bad at macro!

[@kharnthebetrayer3846]

Also he beat the #1 Protoss in EU in the tourney so take your troll ass elsewhere.

[@hydraulichydra8363]

​@@kharnthebetrayer3846You are also a noob.

[@kindlin]

Have you ever watched the videos from his perspective? He knows exactly what he's doing, when what he did failed, why, how it could have been better, and 3 other flavors of cheese, all flying through his head at the same time.

[@kindlin]

PS: He was, and still is, one of the top SC2 players, so I would take your negativity and jealousy elsewhere.
