The WORST Zerg Cheese... I've Ever Seen! (StarCraft 2)

[@borunation]

AHHHHHHH!!! CaptAwesome here!! I haven't been ranked in about 5 or 6 years, and that was my first placement match of 2023. I literally downloaded and played a placement match just because of how much I enjoyed your viewer-submitted games cast a couple weeks back. I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU CAST MY GAME!!! THANK YOU!

[@borunation]

Also, is there a place I can look to actually have a build order? My only starcraft knowledge comes from watching Lowko casts...

[@aegiseevee]

@@borunationhey, i would say winter starcraft has some pretty good guides, i think lambo has a youtube channel as well

[@buffedcookie6787]

@@borunation You should watch Bronze to GM from Vibe, he did that for every Race.

[@nigellax454]

@@borunationliquidpedia has most of the commonly played build orders and the pros names who developed them if you’re looking for that. You know what an even more valuable tool is though? Your replays. Find out why you lost and correct it. If you do that enough times you just stop losing.

[@tonyfalardeau4858]

"This is a man with a lot of vision who's very blind" WOW BARS! Lowko, love when you cast viewer submitted games, by far my personal favourite! All the best to you and yours!

[@oddyssusthejourneyisthepoi4905]

The probe kiss made my day. It really brought tears to my eyes.

[@Vici0uSquirrel]

8:25 sometimes spine crawlers pull the corpses of the unit they kill, and then that got combined with the water physics and the difference in elevation between the drone and the spine

[@danteprokrustes4795]

That spine was like "Get outta here"

[@mikepalmieri8885]

Definitely continue casting these ridiculous games. They make me feel like I'm actually good.

[@tchunzulltsai5926]

Vincent’s mom: Pause your game, dinner is ready.

[@whaliwhalington6600]

Funny that you can tell the exact moment when someone is thinking during these viewer games, it always works

[@ozthebeeman]

I love the viewer submitted plays they are 10 times more fun

[@deandraycurtis1110]

I feel like Lowko wakes up with the sun shining through his windows with a big yawn and birds chirping in the background every morning

[@LowkoTV]

Pretty much true in the summer. The sun rises very late and sets very early now.

[@ZanyBearR]

When Lowko uploads viewer games it makes my day so much better

[@davidbardwell712]

8:20 best death animation ever XD

[@golagiswatchingyou2966]

5:56 nice soundbite lowko, keep em coming

[@redcreyes]

Thanks, Lowko, for the 21 minutes of [joy/pain] in game 1.

[@BesfrenOnlinegamerz]

Lowko: This is why I love casting viewer submitted games. Reality: Yes they will make you pull your hair out in frustration.

[@JoshuaHLim]

Absolutely love seeing viewer games! They are always something to look forward to with hilarious build orders and strategies. 😂

[@josephdiscavage2709]

It’s funny how attacking enemy units can be a bad choice in lower leagues, as it causes the opponent to wake up on that side of the map lol

[@glitsch7966]

5:00: No, i really enjoy casts of Gold or even Silverleague matches:-) There is not the speed and action all the time but at least i can refer it a bit more to my games haha. As always great cast and i certainly enjoy all the pro content of yours, too! Thanks Lowko!

[@DrakeyC]

For Lowko's convenience - a shorthand list of simple boomer names for Queens and other units ;p Male - Danny, Donny, Eddie, Frank, Gary, Greg, Jimmy, Johnny, Larry, Marty, Mikey, Ray, Steve, Tommy, Willy Female - Betty, Brenda, Carol, Debbie, Donna, Elaine, Janet, Judy, Katie, Kathy, Liz, Mary, Pam, Susan

[@DrakeyC]

In all fairness to Vincent, the fact he had foresight to build even a single defensive Photon Cannon while cannon rushing, and then backed off it and tried to expand, means he's a step above most cannon rushers on principle Also, I thought Page 2 of the Protoss Book of Cheese was Dark Templar? My copy must be outdated

[@DanStaal]

I’m pretty sure they’re page 3. They are more of an advanced technique.

[@tranminhnhat7645]

What a roller coaster match! The tides of battle shifted so much that we could not predict the winner until the very last minute.

[@Nhbucsfan]

“Closeted forge first guy” fucking sent me

[@89qwyg9yqa34t]

Hah. That first game was infuriating, but since I've never actually played a PvP game of SC2, that totally would have worked on me.

[@Overgis4058]

Game 1 was obviously Serral vs Solar. Intense back and forth

[@borunation]

which one was I? (CaptAwesome)

[@Raziel1984]

these viewer games are very fun .... your commentary is a big part of that fun tho :D

[@mangamer2818]

17:12 since the macro was so bad, if I was him I was just making a ton of spines and just walk them to fitzroy's natural ( which is in the other side of the map but that's isn't and issue ) edit: Bro I've just heard lowko saying what I thought

[@IaMufasa]

Lowko has done so much for the community. Immediately purchased his announcer dlc. Love this dude and all he has done for SC2!! Thank you Lowko!

[@meikmiemiec2069]

That was such a easy win for fitzroy.... That was hard to watch haha

[@RastamanLiveUp]

Introducing to you this morning, the number one ranked SC2 commentator on youtube, lover of Clem, praiser of Serral, the Dutchman himself: Lowko.

[@Ultramito]

This game is incredible hard to cast! Very well done @LowkoTV. My guess is that they are silver.

[@DarsusD]

always love to see some viewer games

[@zrzexplore7695]

Viewer submitted are so much better then pro matches to watch :D

[@enriquegarciacota3914]

I believe the way to do spines against a Zerg is to build the proxy hatch in the 3rd, or not even in a base. Somewhere close by walking distance but not visible from the straight line between bases. The first 3 larvae become drones, which become spines. A couple more drones from the main. Then 5 spines get uprooted and rooted in the opponent’s second.

[@MrProbe-nk8gm]

Loved it lokow Would like to see these more often

[@wanglelife]

Love it when the game stresses Lowko out and he's screaming into the mic

[@orale_]

viewer submitted games = Dark on his best day

[@barnaclebob123]

man i love these so much but they are also so stressful. The surprise ending in game 2 i didnt see coming. and lowko shame on you for not titling that first game game of the year on one of your last chances to have another game of the year.

[@Deni.Virent]

Really funny games to watch! Based on the first game though when you mentioned the ranked roulette, maybe it could be a fun addition for you to guess the ranks if you can hide them/don't look at them on the loading screen somehow? Might make it more interesting for us to guess at the same time too! Thanks for the amazing videos!

[@YadaYadaMan]

I love these. Please Lowko never stop!

[@SneakyJoeRu]

It's painful to see both zergs ignoring spore crawlers which do amplified damage against bio flyers. Back in my time this level of play was bronze...

[@kennyawho6444]

this looked a lot like bronze to me tbh. silver at best just because of the little bit of zergling micro at the start.

[@alpergaran7394]

Vincent heard the keys in the lock which means his mom and dad came home early.

[@danielheikkila3352]

Pls more often viewer games! They are actually amazing!

[@brianfernandez7456]

I want more! More viewer games!

[@keishito]

That drone got stuck in the sting of the crawler

[@4b0d3]

@LowkoTV will you be doing this for stormgate when it releases?

[@MrBoyDangerous]

Love it! Thanks for Posting! Just what I wanted this morning!

[@tackion5371]

Always a good day when there’s viewer submitted games

[@KingsNerdCave]

Love these hilarious viewer submitted games!

[@Hranica8]

I don't even play Starcraft but I enjoy watching Lowko before I fall asleep

[@marzix427]

If all CaptAwesome did was build queens, he probably just wins. He had a huge bank of minerals and supply.

[@BrodalNso]

Dont be that harsh to the Vincenzo 28:48 He was in that base and i think he didnt thought he was able to in the planing Phase ❤😂🎉

[@ByronCorella]

I love these games, the cast with sounds are the best

[@ryanfahey1281]

We're gonna have to stretch the definition of enjoy reaaaaaallll far with this one.

[@Bootsy187]

How do you download the replay to send in?

[@ahizzy5566]

This was a painful demonstration of why scouting and aggression are important in RTS games

[@1un4cy]

Besides microing the spine to 1shot the hive, I woulda gone with hydralisk+infestor

[@hazeyaims86]

The last game was epic, laughing the entire time lol!

[@grittytheg5077]

captn awesome was trying his hardest to lose that game good thing fitzroy was trying even harder

[@budliquor6972]

This game reminded me of Hudky"s Bronze League Heroes.

[@yotemanjohnson3875]

Somebody used the proxy hatch zvz strat in a game against me yesterday and it ended in disaster for them lol

[@burdy1990]

I was shocked when Fitzroy said „wp“ 😂😂😂😂

[@McShank]

I feel like game 1 was a fine example of players who know a fair bit of theory, but don't have a lot of practice. There were a lot of good ideas that were just executed really, really badly.

[@Deto128]

I wonder if LeBonnet realized his opponent had left at the end of this?

[@Yosskovya]

A bonnet is what Gertrude wears

[@OnkelZoid]

how is this not this weeks game of the year?

[@1KamaronConClase]

painfully awesome, as always 😂😂😂😂

[@nonamenomad320]

1st game be like - BEHOLD....... THE WOOD DIVISION

[@FernasRPG]

This probably high silver, low gold

[@jlee1522]

I have never played a 1v1 game in sc2. Is it wrong to think I could beat some of these guys just because I've watched Lowko?

[@Krltplps]

Lowko has spoiled me with all the pro game casting. That was downright painful to watch :)

[@claudebird1147]

I always watch these to check to see if I’m randomly in them

[@johnbalbin6471]

I have a request, would you be able to cast more multiplayer games? :)

[@danielbob6900]

Was it me or did the blue probe push the red probe out the way

[@xMickx]

It's called: Le Bonné ;D

[@zigfreidbop]

Dude, there is no way this is even gold league. I would be surprised if it's even silver 3. These are bronze league heros.

[@nicocastillo2099]

I’m baffled with the players’ absence of common sense 😂

[@maces5607]

lowko is sharing his pain too all sc fan all around the world

[@danielbedrossian5986]

I tell you a little secret, leagues don't realy do much to kind of matches like these!

[@stofsk]

Fuck I love viewer submitted games

[@ryanj610]

Game 1: getting rushed, better not build units

[@hiddentruth1982]

drone 2 got scooped up and ate.

[@lhouwie08]

Another example of a player not losing because the oponent is not winning😅

[@Nekomonger]

isnt it Harstem? mhm "CaptAwesome"

[@stalwart56k]

The only way these could be better is if Rushi cast them with you to interject American slang and terminology. My only critique is that Gertrude is 100% NOT a boomer name in America IMHO. I'd start going with boomer millennial names like Sara or Kate next time there are too many queens :) Also I am 100% that canon rusher who goes down two leagues when my canon rush fails.

[@ElJulyPK]

Querido Lowko: how do you do to be at the right moment every day? Edit: they have to be more than gold

[@MrBiosh0ck]

Silver or stoned gold players. Reaction time has left the chat.

[@chir0pter]

I dunno about league but Fitzroy has to be like 7 years old at most

[@AdamLarson23]

This has to be Silver league at best. Super fun game to watch though.

[@hiddentruth1982]

I am going to say high silver low gold.

[@TimmyInTarky]

So there is some hope for someone like me to return to SC2 and not get totally obliterated by ppl who have played this whole their life?

[@AwayFromTheWorld]

Every once in a while you gotta show "how not to do it". Funny though if not taken too serious.

[@gressorialNanites]

I am very, very sorry to say, Lowko, but every time you said Fitzroy's name, my brain wanted to assume that you are trying to say Viceroy, but with your Dutch accent :D sorry

[@Bootsy187]

Bronze/silver league, painful to watch

[@quinlamothe5929]

Id rather watch these than the same clem/serral/byun game! as much as I love the high level matches, games like these have much more variability.

[@DistrictTerra]

I'm going to guess silver 1 for this. Before I read any comments in case the players come forward.

[@_Wai_Wai_]

I mean, just look at what resources you are missing and move drones over....sheesh.

[@tzvirubin9708]

i love the channel but i don't think i would come back every single day if i didnt need to know what today's queens were nicknamed

[@DiegoBragion]

most canon rushers dont know how to play the game... lol its true... and ppl get to grand master canon rushing ....

[@arthasss]

Everyday we stray further from god

[@Awesomee89]

cmon, bro, ITS JUST HIGH PING!

[@StaK_1980]

I'm in bronze and I face better opponents than these... the F is going on!?!?
