That is perhaps the funniest challenge I have ever heard of.

[@J1N6666]

absolute disaster trying to micro all the units lmao

I was laughing just reading the title and seeing the thumbnail

[@shaunshutes7442]

Gotta try it. Godmode is when you can only build two of each units, no reproducing. ⛴️

[@vicarion]

Great job, loved this challenge. Excluding SCVs, including hellbats, there are 16 unique terran units. Average supple per unit is 2.5625. Total supply for one of each is 41. I think you should modify the challenge to allow 3 of each. That way you can get to the supply cap of 200, with a reasonable 77 SCVs.

Once there's 2 of everyone, they're allowed 1 baby. 😂

[@TodorKolev]

That's the Swedish Noah's Arc 😆

[@donbarlow6697]

Love the third wheel idea.. Also wonder if there is a strategy that would look like the thor rush but have two of them to get the early damage.

[@tazd3v]

I love this freaking guy! I'm amazed he actually did try my challenge (yup it's me who suggested it). The actual version of the challenge was: build 1 or 2 units until you do complete building all of them at which moment you can literally spam multiple stuff. The whole point was to see more BCs and Thors in his games and the actual challenge was meant to make him struggle in the early game with microing all types of units and coming up with interesting cheeses :). If you did like my challenge throw a like guys! And r3spect to uThermal always :)

[@generaljellyroll8737]

I just like to see talented people micro all the units.

[@heolx]

I’m still waiting for neural a probe/SCV and then beat the opponent with their own units

[@CyberiaChild]

i think the cyclone didnt shoot the first game because it locked on to a probe that went into the gas

[@dakkath414]

I love the idea of this challenge. Going to suggest again the Purifiers only challenge: sentry, disruptor, colossus, observer, warp prism

[@petomni]

I think once you build 2 of everything you should be free to 'repopulate' the earth and build whatever units you want. Hilarious idea for a challenge.

[@BillyCarsley]

"He even has a fusion core." Protoss fusion core.

[@charoisaur594]

This reminds me of Day9s: How do you counter every unit?? 😂

[@Dadbod007]

Florencio does something similar but they called it the avengers. proxy a Factory and the starport and made one of each unit he could and sent it into the base.

[@SChen-ei8gx]

The army composition confounds your opponents as they don't know what to through at the wall of everything

[@Khantia]

Oh, yes! I've been eagerly awaiting this one :D

[@davidelrizzo]

Loved this challenge! So much chaos. Love to see you try it again, maybe start by proxying 2 Thors and then follow up with the arc 😂

[@Yngin]

Love this video, you should try it with Protoss and Zerg as well! Also, I have to suggest another challenge: Protoss Air units only! Oracle harass, mass Phoenix, proxy Tempest, Carrier Void Ray Mothership golden armada doom recall into his main!

[@ludovictrottier425]

Hey uThermal, I have a challenge idea for you. It's called: The Need For Speed. As zerg, you can only make units that have their speed upgrade researched: zergling, hydra, roaches, banelings, overlord and ultra, with movement speed off creep, and lurker with burrow speed. Have fun!

[@KurmisTheAllMighty]

Hey glad to see some old ideas being reborn, judging from videos location. ^^ You could provide such exclusive fun info in description too. ;) Looking forward to show **Termy trying random things for fun. ** ^^

[@SerLava]

Back when Wings of Liberty launched, Terran was undisputedly overpowered, especially against Zerg. There was a legitimate build where you just got one of each unit. It actually worked.

[@roberts.wilson1848]

Here's a challenge idea: your economy supply to be half of production. If you have more scvs above ration after some fights, you must pull scv from working to send to frontlines

[@jacobdenham5190]

I really like this challenge because it looks like it made you think a lot about where to go and what to do next.

[@MadBunnyLabs]

This challenge was hilarious, I would love to see it attempted a few more times. I think what makes this challenge more fun is the difficulty. Perhaps if you mixed up the build order and perform multiple micro cheese plays instead of a full on cheese. Maybe like a proxy barracks into a thor/tank drop. It's not proper, but maybe you could also try building your production in your 3rd to regroup faster.

[@maximk9964]

Here's another wacky challenge suggestion: Aggressive Turtle - take bases as quickly as possible, don't attack enemy structures* until there are no free expansions. * Unless they cannon rush or something

[@IcariumGaming]

Unfortunately it would be boring and lead to the match taking 30-40 minutes each. We would be waiting for the opponent to act, not uThermal, and lead to coin tosses for the result.

[@maximk9964]

@@IcariumGaming Yeah, I figured it could be long, so it wouldn't work as a repeated challenge, but a one-off might be fun. But I can see how it would be down to luck whether it's boring or not.

[@yunwenlei3383]

This might work for an all-in strategy. You can not make enough units for macro.

[@DrRachelRApe]

Well technically the Noah's Ark challenge should have 2 of every unclean unit and 7 of every clean unit, so they can be sacrificed.

[@joaqueim5201]

This guy Bibles

[@Tom_Tom_Klondike]

Oh my god I'm in love with this challenge idea! XD

[@krellin]

you should fill up the rest of the supply with SCVs that constantly repair your units or try to end the game early with few units...

[@DiscipleofVenser1992]

That was entertaining for sure but I have a challenge in mind. "Back to Basics". No upgrades on any units or buildings. You can build the buildings and any of the basic units. Think you can do this one? I think the buildings added should up the difficulty

[@d35t1201]

I think I have an explanation to the cyclone bug I think one enemy probe went into the vespin extractor the moment that the cyclone locked onto it. That probably bugs out the lock in mechanic

[@qontodemigo2461]

This is a great one for Zerg take over. Where you beat them with their own race

[@Mr0Mey]

Such a good idea !

[@finalbarrage7108]

A really silly challenge, try to expand a LOT, and build as many barracks as you can fit, and win by just sending wave after wave of marines from every angle. And i mean, A-Move them in, and forget about them, no micro

[@elricdotah]

Secondary status vehicles don't count in my opinion, so landed vikings and hellbats are clearly ok to have 2 when you have 2 flying vikings and 2 hellions. Also 2 stationary tanks and liberators should be allowed in addition to maneuverable ones, if you want to siege up the maneuverable ones you'd have to unsiege the others though. You could discuss about cloak but a) the unit doesn't change much and b) it's really easy to cheat massively once the units run out of energy. I really liked the challenge and would love to see more, maybe do it like you did a while ago and start with a fresh account from zero, so you have some training games before the big boys arrive.

[@Iseenoobpeoples]

I got a strategy idea for you, with Zerg, build a large ground army and hide it on the map close to the opponent's main base (burrow could be used), then when he moves out with his army wait until he is about half way across the map and push strait to his main (this part is critical, the timing of the attack has to trigger him to turn around and defend his base), put two Nydus at the back of his base, kill the main and retreat through Nydus, gg.

[@BillyCarsley]

So Protoss then?

[@tyler197802198]

I love this challenge!

[@mikeshivak]

Yo I love this challange idea!

[@Univenon]

I've been binging your challenges for the last couple weeks and I had an idea of a challenge you could do. "Spawn to GM" where you play as Zerg and only make Spawn Lords and Brood Lords. Could also call it "Lords to GM" I suppose. I have no idea how far it would go, but it would be fun to see. You would probably need a few allowances of starting units, but I think you could make it work.

[@davidbodor1762]

If you lose the units, you should rebuild them, but only up to having 2 at a time.

[@bboyjmillz-g2g]

No Fucking Way. NOAH'S ARK CHALLENGE?? LETS FUCKING GOO

[@jme4786]

You know . . . Noah was actually instructed to bring 7 of each of the "clean" animals onto the ark (some of them were for sacrifice), and 7 of each flying bird. Maybe you need to revisit this challenge.

[@bobbob-gg4eo]

Awesome game! Can we see "simultaneous maxed out nukes"? where you max out on nukes with just enough ghosts to launch them all and launch them all at the same time 😂

[@KERAAK35]

Marc, how come when seeing you? :D You always remind me of Hara Christna or Budha monk! :D Cheers for the amazing tactics that you developed, some are so similar of guerilla tactics or any past historian once and modern warfare as well. :) You are an amazing person and man, thank you! :) From an elder to a younger, keep it up! (y) BR AN.

[@ZionSingapore]

Beautiful challenge 👏😆 enjoyed it. I think to make this viable, you should be allowed to have multiple armies but each command group should only be allowed to have 2 of each unit. That makes it easier to have 2 groups for splitting and attack/defend

[@Maty514]

Needed some hail mary nukes maybe 😂 fun video!

[@sloanNYC]

That is a crazy challenge.

[@Chefkok09]

Me: struggeling on bronze to get a decent army. Uthermal; nah i just go build 2 of each warriors 😂 Me: losing after 5 minuts Uthermal: 15 minuts😮

[@brandon079]

Once you have built 2 of everything, you should build whatever you feel like. You've earned it and it's logistically too complicated replacing units otherwise.

[@amythystmiriel]

Hilarious challenge, but you had four widow mines at 15 minutes in!

[@usnationalist]

Should have used all that extra supply on a scv repair blob to follow your army.

[@TS-sg6yf]

Well done. Finally we know how to lose.

[@Nekoyashiki-san]

Thanks for the fun. ^^

[@jonsolo32]

Please do the penguin bros hybrid challenge. You also send a medivac with SCVs on auto repair in it. Any penguin that gets damage can be picked up and repaired in the medivac.

how about a challenge of only 1 barracks 1 factory and 1 star port

[@mr.floppi8275]

It was amazing. But sadly it's too hard to work properly. Thanks a lot for trying it.

[@Drymarro]

Protoss - 4 gate stalker for early-mid game. Mid-late game: Protoss death ball. Refuse to ever play that race.

[@jonatasleitedepaiva5777]

I thought was a challenge where only lab tech units are permitted

[@ScBroodSc2]

Challenge: Launch 10 nukes within 30 sec. You can make any unit you wish to survive.

[@TheBookOfAkersGaming]

Id love to see an Ai do this because it would gbe the only thing that could handle the Micro of it all.

[@BillyCarsley]

2 of each unit and no losing units. God will provide.

[@ml8443]

Terran death ball 😅

[@danielsz3281]

you need to get 2 of each type faster so the opponent army doesnt scale, thats the challenge.

[@tbarron1631]

If a hellion and a hellbat count as different units, does a landed viking and an airborn viking count as different units?

[@njdarda]

i guess that's what Artosis faced during 2011 State of the Game podcast.

[@davidbodor1762]

I want to see you do this with protoss and then try to use every single ability.

[@foreverzero15x6]

I got a challenge you play starcraft 1, they play starcraft 2. Go with every race but you can only use units, abilities, buildings that are available in starcraft 1.

[@roguegargoyle914]

Very silly 😂

[@gesus6613]

Triples might be better to watch so you can get closer to maxing in the late game.

[@artemirrlazaris7406]

What about, A glitch Challenge. Using every exploit and map glitch and in game mehcanics not working properly.. There is some fun Teleporting bugs with various tools and being pushed into a base etc... hmmm Anyways teh Noah Challenge can work. I would count up your supply. and then you can make marines in bunkers only over that 2 supply. so if they are made tehy essentailly act like defence for your bases. Then you can micro your noah army. This owuld make more sense... Noahs army... and your ark is your home base which is with more then jsut two humans! so think of the story, animals, but those commadning the ship borthers mothers, dads, sisters peopel right,... so yeah... make it slightly easier... I thin its like 24-26 marines or something... which is about 5 bunkers. 5 base set up with bunkers, lol

[@Ampersand38]

Perhaps a small tweak to go up to 3 or 4 of each unit, however much gets to 200 supply.

[@Tom_Tom_Klondike]

It could be called the "all gods creatures" challenge

[@Seba-iz6wc]

First challenge already looks nearly impossible lol

[@cuddlecakes7153]

See this is a challenge I would do lol

[@alk672]

So here I am hearing about building 2 of each units... thinking maybe low diamond... then the loading screen pops up and of course Marc is playing a 4.8k GM... so typical.

[@akeustis]

More than 2 SCVs were made. Challenge attempt is disqualified.

[@goldenmongoose1717]

I think it should be 2 vikings and 2 pengins

[@jallison79]

Once you make 2 of every unit then you should be able to make units freely

[@nathanstretch]

If you've got the money, why not make the extra 40 scvs and bring them with your army as a meat shield/repair?

[@calvyoel1515]

Actually you should do a part two. Call it the Noah's ark 2.0? Basically the "clean/eatable" animals were in groups of 7 so.. yea, special tech units groups of 2, major support in 7s!:)
