Last season of rank roulette I guessed every single week hoping to see my standings vs other viewers at the end, but community guesses were only used as an average. I won't be guessing this time around unless we hear more about what will happen with our guesses. Still a very fun series though.

Holy hell, the editing looks awesome!!. Congrats Hamster, you overcame all of my expectations.

yes he truly seems to be on another level now

The editing is indeed great, although I would have loved to see the intermediate results between the rounds.

Damn you, Arcprism!

[@aresagathos2075]

Very interesting that Harstem focuses on what people do well to judge them, while his oponents always focus on the mistakes, to figure out the league.

[@ellipsis...1986]

"This is alright Starcraft" no rotti nothing about 12 cannons per base skytoss is alright lol

[@turtle_stew_Lukas]

Would love it, if Hamster introduced the clips with the matchup and region again, especially because the region can make quite a difference. Awsome season 2 is here!

How many guests are there this time around? Also I miss Hamster's announcer voice for the games

[@AAkCN1]

Thank you for continuing this series!!!! I was excited all week for the release

[@11cyrus11]

Word of advise as a diamond zerg. Creep spread is not a thing until diamond. If we spread during platinum then that is a rare thing.

[@bvittlegit1005]

I'm spreading it all over in silver2 , just not consistently... one day!

[@AAkCN1]

Hamsters editing is on point. lmao @8:37

[@MaskedImposter]

Harstem will need to come up with new tricky tactics if he can no longer anchor his opponent.

[@dromeosaur1031]

I have a feeling that the last replay was literally Harstem. No way he would have praised it so much otherwise.

[@loneranger707]

hope you go better than the dutch soccer team

[@soundsnc]

Silver was was a dead give away for round 2 when the zerg move commanded his queens PAST the BC's and they all got set on fire without firing a single attack.

[@Darkshadow7827]

Sweet. Imma take a guess at these community replays even though I have never played SCII ever haha. Love the series and glad that it's back!

[@ebbethinggaard]

This is great, looking forward to more RANT ROULETTE

[@scott5203]

Hey my guy Harstem(and hamster) the great. The link in your description to your second youtube channel(which i assume is harstemcasts) doesn't work! love the content =)

[@MythXRaser]

About the second game: When both players don't follow something even remotely resembling a build order you can be pretty sure they are low silver, if not bronze.

[@peterkallese6967]

22:44 it is not the first link in the description lol

[@jpawluk]

Yes! I love this series!!! Game 3 I guessed gold because it reminded me of vibe’s b2gm.

I have been waiting so long for season 2. This is the best series since When Cheese Fails

[@drakorez]

14:59 I had not looked at the server yet, but after seeing the 3rd there was only 1 option it could be.

[@TrueThanny]

I'm surprised during that second game neither one of them commented on the Zerg player move-commanding an entire conga line of Queens under the BC's. That alone seems to mandate the league of the player.

[@clee89]

whoah we got a sponsor? nice!

[@matrixfan566]

In the last game i just want to say there are somehow adepts with zealots, stalkers, sentinels, hts and colossi in his main army. also every single sentinel is full energy, and every ht except the one who just casted a storm at 22:01

[@IconiaAngelos]

That community game must've been Harstem's own replay, I bet.

[@fate711]

Harstem: Don't read this post! Hamster: Please submit a game from Harstem's off race so we can rank himself. 😈

He is both mid-GM as both T and Z as well tho

Last video is Masters 1. Amazing timings

[@jorgemichaelquino7562]

Congrats Chief And Hamster♥️♥️♥️

[@Nutella150]

mid-level SC2 is so fun to watch cause people get there with different skill-sets. You can have say a diamond TvZ player with a near perfect macro, but his micro is trash and he a-moves his bio into lurkers and banelings so he never reaches as high MMR as his macro should allow. In that same game you could have a Z player who is a little suspect on the injects and creep spread, but played a bunch of WC3 and likes to micro so they get really good engagements and stay in the game even with worse economy than terran which "shouldnt" happen in the matchup. Pro games are fun to watch of course but even amateur mid-high level games are great too just to see the different styles of play people bring to the game

[@axh2]

11:45 Terran's only tank: Screw you guys, I'm going home! Have nice fight

[@AD-lr6pc]

I have been waiting all week

[@RekijanGaming]

Well in Rotti's defense of his record score, last season people discussed and thus were always closer to each other. I like this format better though.

[@hamster_designs]

Is it really just a disadvantage though? Since he cannot fall to the legendary Harstem-Anchoring-Technique now!

[@RekijanGaming]

@@hamster_designs well I guess it works both ways, good point. I am expecting more variance in scores though.

[@fulldisclosureiamamonster2786]

@@hamster_designs With how anchoring has gone for Harstem's opponents, I'd say not letting him anchor his guests is putting them at a huge disadvantage lol

[@sassazing2346]

but but but what about the booming echoing voice announcing each round with the player names and server? I loved that part D:

[@Keex11]

The most important sporting event this year!

[@MisterJ900]

Harstem you are lovely and everything, but we all know hamster is the real mvp of the channel and u are the pet here

[@Nutella150]

the bill gates with a loaf of bread analogy was so on the money, well done

[@snowdrop9810]

Community one: that toss played better than me for sure, so he’s above diamond 1 likely. my guess is its either masters 3 or masters 2 though, i am leanig more towards masters 2. Masters leauge is pretty large, so i doubt he’s actually too high. Terran also didnt control his vikings perfectly(likely in same control group as bio) but he did use his ghosts decently. Both sides werent great, but they werent bad. Definately felt like a msters game though.

[@Misha4em]

I think it’s diamond league. We can see that Protoss gets resources piled up. Gets Colos AND high Templar against bio army. And the response from the Terran is about 20 Vikings or more. We can also see dark shrine and +1 armor just finishing for Protoss at 12 minute mark. Can’t be masters

[@richardgallimore5976]

I also guessed Master 2, the money was too well spent in the beginning of the game to be below Masters imo. Ghosts were used, Vikings were used, Terran didn't just ram into Storm. I'd say GM, but the float at the end was to high.

[@celestrius9197]

All jokes aside what if it wound up being silver.

[@Herold_sc2]

This is what we have all been waiting for

[@michalvodicka5123]

Haha Im so glad you are so bad in this game :D Because you are much better in SC2 than me, so this is kind of satisfaction :D

[@madsondurton8754]

cool to see you two

[@VillaMasterSF]

harstem got some serious NA judgmentskills.

[@drakorez]

That last one had to be GM right? That actually looked like SC2.

[@richardgallimore5976]

My guess was Masters 2. I was thinking Masters 1, but then the 3K float while not maxed made me think it was lower. As Harstem pointed out, he didn't make the correct Gateway count to remax.

[@celestrius9197]

Building placement I feel is a giveaway as well because I'm pretty sure any gm even on na will have optimal placement unless harassment forces buildings into certain places, or your hiding something for a specific timing or some such. Very very clean for most of the game if you're not gm though

[@cottoncandy3577]

@@richardgallimore5976 Plus it was on the european Server. I personally guessed Masters 1. Because the Protoss does seem to misjudge fights that he can take. I didn't see him fallback with his army even as it was very clear that he couldn't win the fight.

[@zzvbm]

Uff Rotti wild shot on the first one :p

[@Haluc7N]

Wouldnt it be 7 points in the old counting system qhich means this is actually the record, not a tie for the record? Or am i missing something? :)

[@hamster_designs]

Well, we only have 4 replays this season instead of the 5 last time. So actually the scores are kinda comparable to last season ^^

[@Deto128]

Does anyone else really want to see how these games end? I think having a quick edited sequence showing the finale (maybe after they make their predictions and the level is revealed) would be a good addition.

[@Fabelaz]

love to see the return!

[@Sparta-vu3jj]

Did you guys forget to play with the new scoring system or am I missing something.

[@celestrius9197]

I think 1 off is 2 pt 2 off adds 3 more than that adds 4??

[@celestrius9197]

Nvm rottis score does not reflect that lol

[@celestrius9197]

Also I'm an idiot harstems 2nd guess wasn't as close as I recalled. Yeah so I think we assumed that it cut off at 4 but they just didn't show it continue. So perfect is 0 but 1 off is 2 and that just continues

[@Sparta-vu3jj]

@@celestrius9197 ahh I understand now. Yeah I thought it cut off at 4.

[@TacticalFlukie]

For round 4, I guessed Platinum 1 because even in NA the stupid stats like mass static d doesn't work higher up on the ladder. I'm diamond 2 and rarely see this stuff (that said, I do see it sometimes) To reiterate: This is exactly what my games against opponents like this look like XD

[@richardgallimore5976]

I guessed Diamond 2 for round 4, the only one I got completely right. My Protoss offrace is D1 and sometimes me or my opponent will just mass Skytoss. If I try to play against Skytoss by being more mobile (like the Blink Stalker attack on the main) I just die because I can't control units well & Skytoss a-move is very easy. I feel like my D1 games and this game were very similar, this looked VERY slightly worse.

[@danielskrivan6921]

I got 13 points! With my first guess... Only 8 points on the other guesses. Total 21 points. 1) Silver 1 - 13 points 2) Silver 1 - 3 points 3) Gold 3 - 2 points 4) Diamond 3 - 2 points

[@AB-xo3pl]

[@Nexus_542]

"his prisim Sarah Kerrigan'd him" LOL that was so off the cusp

[@pelinore2366]

@@SaiKisaragi the natural CC not changed to an orbital and the complete lack of wall in TvZ was a good indication for silver. Then again they were making units (even if not the good ones) and expanding, so I was putting them at gold.

[@SaiKisaragi]

@@pelinore2366 I said diamond II. Most of my matches are me doing [zealot - archon - counter unit] and laughing at other Protoss using prismatic alignment on archons or losing to any attack before 6 mins.

[@SaiKisaragi]

@@pelinore2366 also I don’t wall off in TvZ because if you are rushing lings, you probably are a better person than I am. And when I use lings versus a terrianer, I just get fucked by marines, so I just go hydra - roach every goddamn game.
