These ELITE ROACHES Are Actually Far Too Cost-Efficient... | Is It Imba Or Do I Suck?

After a lot of high elo replays in Grandmasters and other high leagues it is time to get back to the lower leagues again. And here we have a beautiful Bronze replay trying to showcase why Protoss is OP. But these players completely exeeded my expectations! Smash like to give them the power to rank up!

[@damedley75]

Come on in the water's fine.

[@dominikmagnus]

clicking things fast and consistent is much more desirable to get into masters, than knowledge, since no amount of knowledge would save you, if you have less workers -> less eco -> less army (Lanchaster's law is no joke) and also late timings on any type of push/cheese. Then, after you get to masters with your micro and macro, you can have benefits from your knowledge gained in full.

[@kelfablob9823]

I wish I could Roach like you, Tolo!

[@dominikmagnus]

Well, imagine your opponent transition into immortals or voidrays, which is a couple of clicks away (Build robo -> build immortals/build stargate -> build voidray). Suddenly your lack of transition makes you loose your army rapidly and you have no tech to transition to. Zerg is often described as reactive race, since you can get out many units of your choosing quickly. So making a couple of tech structures in anticipation of a switch is quite common. For example a lot of the times roach warren is placed "just in case" Zerg is in need of a dozen of roaches to defend bases. With your lack of scouting and transition you could've been dead much earlier, if toss decided to make even a couple of immortals. It's like seeing you miss incoming traffic by an inch and still insisting on crossing every road with a blindfold and earplugs...

I wrote you recently about me thinking of playing SC2 - those guys being bronze scared shit out of me

[@matthewclark7955]

Why did you barely mention the drone count.. like.. 25-38 drones total throught pretty much the whole game surely this is the main issue we're dealing with here?

[@meandmyself1600]

Kill off the whole army of your opponent twice and call his race IMBA - nice one

[@soju69jinro]

sc2 needs another metric called WPM, not Words Per Minute, more like Wastefulness Per Minute.

god tier series

[@jakes.5206]

Is that an Easter egg Scrabble tile in the units lost tab at 18:02?

[@Ivanical]

I'm actually impressed. Sure he didn't know how or why he lost but not bad for a bronze player. Goes for both of them.

[@AlexanderVRadev]

2700 MMR on the complaint form. He is Platinum. Ether the dude is having the placement bug and not know, or more likely he is trolling Harstem.

Speaking of Age of Empires, did you try AOE IV this past weekend?

[@ryfors]

Another fun episode, thanks Captain and Hamster

[@LiD777]

The intro for this on had me laughing a lot.

[@liampett1313]

This guy could low key be plat...

"They want people to get better, they send you in" lmao

[@millermeares6676]

“That is a big truth” made me LOL

[@Skelli2]

Maybe im a little too rusty to ask this since i havent played in years but wouldnt adding a lot of banelings to the zerg comp just stomp the toss army?

[@mareksicinski3726]

9:42 microing comes after actually most likely

[@ilikedragons7928]

Dear Captain sheep was added at Age of Empire 2 .In AoE 1 I watch them chop trees and hunt and keep building towers.

[@damedley75]

I was not this good when I was Bronze

[@damedley75]

I definitely had under 70 APM with Zerg

[@damedley75]

But I didn't blame my losses on balance

[@januszkurahenowski2860]

It's really impressive where your 400 apm zerg micro is worse than clicking A move and taking your hands off the keyboard until they die, literally. It's sort of impressive in a way

[@bobjohnson1096]

I love how players build one unit and wonder how they lost.

[@erickpoorbaugh6728]

Yeah, if Zerg could win massing one unit with bad macro, it would be Zerg that was IMBA.

[@josephfield6903]

2769 mmr is bronze??

[@spandanganguli6903]

Age of Empires 1, 2 , and 3 are such nostalgia trips.
