Hey everyone! I know my editing has been a bit rushed in the past few videos. Will be putting in more effort in the future, plus being selective in the games I choose. For now, enjoy this peak NA Protoss ;)

[@TwinGhosts]

Bro, don't worry, you've been pumping out consistent SC2 content for as long as I've been watching it. Much love king and take it easy!

[@EDBlCeiferof]

@@TwinGhosts Think the same, but would be cool to let the last comments (few last seconds) from the narrators when a game ends so we can low the "adrenalin" a lit bit slower, when it immediatly stars other match it's so sudden.

[@jacquesford4095]

are there any 2v2 matches?

[@kilvesx7924]

Once again most NA game of the year

[@MattSipka]

Repowering structures with a warp prism is a great strategy in theory but I would have brought a couple probes and some units since it’s also a transport.

[@snowdrop9810]

I have two questions, Why? and How?

[@hinney827]

@@snowdrop9810 probe to re-establish a true pylon, I guess? but he couldn't really bring other units, since his gates were all over there. an immortal could have been brought in, but then maybe he can't afford the units from the repowered gates. not to mention the time sink of waiting for more units to produce from the robo.

[@scarletcat4735]

Yes. Carry a probe and make a new pylon, and let prism in back of the battle-line, saving units. there is no need to save that 150(probe 50 + pylon 100) if you have a super high risk of losing the prism(200).

"If I don't know what I'm doing, my opponent can't know what I'm doing either" is the quote of the year. unironically. i love this crap

[@Nighthawk20000]

That first game was so painful, Trigger fumbled the bag so hard

[@Medabee8]

Not building stalkers was stupid

i mean that adept getting trapped? fudgeeeeeee

Why spoil it u noob ¿

[@hetaresgaming7771]

@@rsbandbj1 The second adept round after the warp prism powered the gateways too. Attacking the nexus and not a single probe goes down? Oof.

[@Ariautoace]

This has to be the funnest game I have ever watched.

[@You-ul8qw]

I'd love to see what the captain would think this league was in if it was submitted to rank roulette.

[@Rhade15]

Stopped playing and watching SC in 2015 but I still enjoy your videos, thank you

[@legionofpie]

I love how unhinged ZG gets at some points. It's so obvious this is the last match of the day and she's hypetired.

[@XOPOIIIO]

He should have attacked his army with DT not his mineral lines, like kill the observer and attack him. That was the only chance. And by the time he did it, Astrea already had the additional observer to teleport.

[@grigorsamsa6564]

You had me at peak NA. C to the L to the Own Fiesta wooo!

[@Wowbaggertheinfinite]

I feel like they both played down to the opponent's level and ended up getting stuck in a loop until they ended up in NA bronze.

[@Wrynwynn]

Trigger fumbled the world’s biggest win by lacking patience. One more wave of zealots or choosing to produce stalkers would have won him the game.

[@miroslavjanosik4844]

Yeah, "5AM strategies" 😀

[@helmutalexanderrubiowilson6835]

Very creative games

[@bloxxberg]

yesterday i saw naniwa building a nexus first in a terran main. still won

[@Lost7one]

i cannot believe the 3 gate proxy inside base and he walks in with 2 zealots lol, could have made shield batteries and stalkers, this dude trigger looks like a plat in that game lol, loved it.

[@eugeneponomarov7429]

What a game

[@BlueWithRed]

Yes, the top tier players have honed their craft over years, and are truly playing on another level. But when was the last time you saw an offensive expand in a GSL?

[@oliverhughes610]

Feel like Rag did it a few seasons ago

[@bsiah9073]

lol are you like bronze player?

gotta love cannon rushes

[@owenollivier4468]

[@reallifescience2069]

These commentators are way to critical and confident in their calls for being wrong and missing the strategy over and over. This is why casters like Lowko are so much better. These commentators are bad.

[@Lost7one]

lowko is not a caster though?
