That hallucination cheese was AMAZING!

[@ucleazgard]

Hallucination cheese? I wanted to see this thing for so long I've forgotten about it! Man you just made my little dream come true, you are absolute Legend 😊

[@Deipnosophist_the_Gastronomer]

Hallucination play is really sweet when it works. 👍

[@aierce]

Making enemy quit from hallucinated army was my favorite strategy when I was still under the impression that I will get good at this game some day

[@LCInfantry]

Lmao

[@scotwilcox1771]

I downloaded sc2 after I started watching uThermal and then after a few practice matches I was like, "you know what, nah. I'm not putting in twenty hours a week for years to someday hit Diamond."

[@LCInfantry]

@@scotwilcox1771 It’s more or less just playing an RTS game or genre. If you already know how to play an RTS, then you already got 70% of the work completed.

[@JonnyCraig33]

I hit Diamond and can confirm it takes forever 😂

[@Necrocidal]

That marauder cheese was so stupid yet so amazing

[@serv-on]

I dont even like watching rts games but your explanations, positive attitude and diff strats makes these vids entertaining

[@adrianr9454]

The PF cheese where it survived on 1HP will always be my favorite. What about an all out uThermal cheese, play the best you can until you hit GM and voice over it :D

[@eclipseeffigy]

If he's gonna play the best he can he should start in GM, otherwise it's just mean to his opponents lol

[@mBlackThunder]

that was a really cool save that one^^ I remember that one clearly as well :D

[@onemember]

7:00 Think trying 1 Nydus vs all those ground units was simply hoping he would not attack it... Waiting few seconds for resources to drop two Nydus in opposite ends of his base may have worked better.

[@true_xander]

Yep, split attack is usually better than everything at one place, specially when your opponent is ahead economically.

[@ilikedragons7928]

Hallucination has so much potential. It's fun to see it work.

[@WhitePointerGaming]

In a lot of ways the creative thinking behind these cheeses is really what Starcraft should be all about. Not just pigeonholed into a handful of canned macro builds, but actually thinking on your feet and coming up with plays the opponent couldn't possible expect, or fooling them into thinking you're doing something else. It's weird that so many players don't respect that and get salty when you don't play the way you're "supposed" to.

[@dylanberger8701]

THAT PAUSE BM LOL

[@Zenkujo]

Sees "halucinate" in title... instantly giggles at Huk vs idRa... "that army was haluc" **giggles**

[@HungTran-gz5em]

That protoss was super mannered. 90% of players wouldnt have gg'd that

[@gbrlim]

Almost 10 years of Starcraft and this is the first time I've ever seen a Terran make stim in their opponent's base slayyy - what a move!

[@andrewpotapenkoff7723]

That last game player - his hame is Sergey and his favorite tank in World of Tanks - is 6lv French light tank ELC AMX. At least that's what I've read from his nickname :D

[@swahilimaster]

That marauder cheese made me happy, it was so stupid to watch that working.

[@patrickfell3311]

To answer uThermal's question about my favorite of his cheeses? Proxy-Hatch-Spine-Crawler. I recently tried it against another player (was a Terran), and it worked!

[@Batmane812]

The PF rush where you were scouted by that protoss and then still ended up making it work (and lifting up and edging closer to his base) was my favourite haha. This was an amazing episode as well but to be honest, its always very entertaining. Thanks again for your content, from Canada!

[@myowngamingaccount8882]

Hallucinations to Grandmaster: Doable or just imaginary?

[@shinyary2]

I would love to watch that. Could be his hardest challenge yet, though XD

[@sveintheberserk]

My favorite cheeses are the PF ones where the pf is right in their base just destroying everything and also the Proxy hatch spine rush. been watching since penguin brothers.

[@noahkurilko4948]

Great video, man. Love seeing you have so much fun while you play, makes the best content. Hope you aren’t killing yourself making videos, but they’re always worth watching so take that how you will

[@eriksih7832]

Planetary fortress rush when it survived with 1 life is the greatest moment in StarCraft every!!! Love lowkos video with it also!!!!! You are the man!

[@DeathOfALegacy]

My favorite is watching your bongcloud get more and more refined. Then watching someone medivac drop an empty main base haha

[@manixburn6403]

I love the first zerg cheese, probably not strong but very lore friendly i suppose, StarCraft 1 vibe. Basic zerg striking unaware humain colony.

[@balazsfenyes3880]

That last marauder cheese was so good even a saltoss had to say gg.

[@realestateYT]

Being a protoss, it would be the most "WTF" moment in my life if I saw 4 marauders show up in my main WHILE my natural is under early push.

[@yann1922]

Could be fun to see a "Offensive Tutel to GM" with the Terran obviously The plan would be, to slowly push with bunkers on 2 different paths. Making bunkers and static defense everywhere that would be useful as well as walls (doing some directly in front of the bunkers might be useful to keep the enemy's troops away from your bunkers, making them able to survive longer especially vs melee troops), that would be supported by Siege Tanks (for the splash damage), Liberators (for that insane single target damage), Thors (for anti-air purpose), with Marines to obviously fill those bunkers, and any other units that would be needed at the time Imagine the enemy, trying to push your little fortified outpost (probably loosing quite a few units in the process), only to see your army retreat to another one when the first one has been broken while you are pushing on another path in a similar manner This is probably not a good idea, because too many different unit types (thus the upgrades would be spread out and would cost way more to max everything), more diverse production capabilities instead of doing the 2/3 sames units in an absurd amount, you also have to expand quickly as it is going to be ressources heavy to do but by doing so many defensive positions you might secure more bases easily, it would be fun to watch and as you're a skilled player, you can probably make this work somehow

[@krunkcleanup2949]

In game 1, I wonder if you could put a drone in with your ling drop, have your overlord poop out some creep and make a spine in his base...

[@derdino67001]

That episode contains all the cheese that you need, perfect

[@Slashed888]

the Marauder Cheese to round it out is an honorable mention also! I had to rewind to see it!

[@overthinker8706]

Marvelous episode. Both hallucinations and Marauder proxy. Your cheese I like mostly is proxy Reapers from either 2 or 3 Barracks. Your most hilarous cheese was proxy Starport into Medivac filled with Vikings (I miss Sky Terran series...).

[@thedarknight5100]

Your best CHEESE to GM is "Ghost-to-GM"! TERRAN for Life!

[@anthonyrepetto3474]

hahahaha! thank you! 1hp PF is definitely the god-tier... I'm sure: when your opponent was watching that replay, they were chewing their fingers off...

[@scottkim7283]

marc, did you catch any of oliveira's run at iem katowice? my god... an instant classic.

[@skarp0ye]

Your content is so good, keep it coming!

[@Robothuck]

Just came here from the Katowice finals! I'm hungry for more starcraft, uThermal flavoured! Edit: that game 2 was insane, I've never seen someone use hallucinated Immortals at all, let alone do that with them! Edit2: That game 3... Now I've truly seen everything... I don't even have words to describe the murder that just occurred on my screen

[@mattmbx5472]

Anyone else had flashback of IdrA GGing against Hallucination haha... Great matches, Only Legends upload on Sundays.

[@vastac13]

That last game! He got brain fart doing another oracle 😅

[@damienturner6368]

Game one was entertaining. Very creative and loved you trying to play it out!

[@memedaddy6932]

It was really cool to end the episode by playing a wings of liberty mission

[@chimdor8503]

I would love to see some challenge based around the colossus at some point!

[@tomatopotatocelery]

Flying rax into their base for ghosts is the best

[@Mach1048]

Favorite Cheese? Look I'm a big fan of Swisse. Favorite Cheese of yours? I have to say Mass Reaper because it's just nuts.

[@vadstradamus]

I wish I could get my hands on Hallucination Cheese when I was in college. Sounds like a wild ride 😂😂😂... thanks for the fun content!

[@wolvie90]

If I executed an in-base proxy Marauder cheese like that, I would have such a big banana grin on my face I'd get muscle cramps in my cheeks. That was so beautifully stupid.

[@AB0821]

What an episode! Insanity :D I would love to see you playing DT

[@BaufenBeast]

I think he forgot that Marauders don't really die to oracles that fast.

[@laurencepeclo9504]

Hey Uthermal! Nice vids as always! Could you maybe do a pov analysis of Oliveira's run at the IEM? It was such a blast seeing him take out all the best players in the world.

[@amythystmiriel]

The proxy thor+battlecruiser from Cheese to GM was one of my favorites.

[@jednooki555]

Damn, I'm falling in love with sc2 again thanks to those videos.

[@luckylarry71]

It's a very close call on which of uThermal's cheeses are the 'best' for me, but proxy Thor drop with SCV pull has to come slightly ahead of the proxy Ghost Academy and Rax inside your main into Ghost rush.

[@HeavyLiftGaming]

Gotta be more sneaky with the Zergling drop cheese.

[@faithful451]

My fav was the proxy ghost in their main, also the PF rushes, so many good ones though it's hard to pick a favourite

[@bboyjmillz-g2g]

what an unreal ending to the ESL tourny!!! now we got Uthermal for the save lolll

[@brianr6661]

So many fine cheeses to choose from. Your next name should be dairy related.

[@lynk5902]

I honestly don't know why hallucination isn't used more often. Hallucinations can tank damage, meaning your units stay alive longer in combat. They are effectively free hp at the cost of energy from a sentry.

[@blamasterk]

I like that map where you build bases onto carpets ))

[@DiscipleofVenser1992]

Favorite cheese: Planetary Rush where it survived at, I think it was at, 3 HP. Of course I like any of those but that stood out. Also I have no idea if the terminology is right or if you've already done it, but I'd like to see a Terran speedy Marine/Medivac + Reaper rush to go for early economy cheese. Follow up with whatever you like if it doesn't succeed. Thanks for great RTS content UThermal!

[@chaotixthefox]

It was 1 HP.

[@DiscipleofVenser1992]

@@chaotixthefox I stand corrected.

[@beetlepoundcarrot6412]

Planetary rushes and proxy hatches are some of the best; but, you have to try ebay blocking the zergs in pf rushes

[@re1per3]

Long time viewer, first time commenting. You're f*cking amazing Mark. Keep up the awesome content and crazy builds. But take a break mental health is important too.

[@timmuche1093]

Thanks for Daily Upload, Like it so much

[@chandler7493]

That would have been funny if the marauder in the base finished off the recalled adept at 17:00

[@ScrapDMX]

The lastest videos feel like you are trying 'Harstem to GM'

[@CaerwynTV]

My favorite uThermal cheese is definitely the boar bus

[@Scizzzor]

My fav is Thermie protoss baboon style where I don`t know whats going on xD

[@fragg999]

Lol nice!! I always enjoy your vids. I thought you were shirtless for a sec I had to look 2x

[@bboyjmillz-g2g]

PF's hands down, watching a CC slowly creep up and make it's fortress plant is just nasty

[@cosmosorbust]

The best episode ever.

[@Ty-bz7zx]

Banger!

[@peterhardie4151]

New cheese to try : double proxy planetary rush. Vs Terran or Protoss 2 planetary timing attack.

[@alexkong6823]

The stim research is so BM its hilarious

[@dominikhublin3023]

I can't decide which my favorite cheese is between the Thor Drop or Spine Rush. Spine Rushes turn into such a fun micro battle usually and are high octane all the way through, but seeing a Thor THAT early is just hilarious

[@stefan.jokanovic]

Wooo! Next time cast the entire series ❤😊🎉

[@crispycrimps865]

what an abzerg strat! incredible

[@nikopaterakis]

Last time I saw one of these was IdrA ragequitting vs HuK glorious !

[@PR-cm7nl]

always entertaining to watch your gameplays 👍would love to see if you let one overlord spread creep at the zergling drop and a drone for a spine to defend the nydus 🤓

[@PhaseCannon]

You have GOT to rename the Thor drop to SLAMazon Prime drop.

[@Pryde551]

So much fun!!!

[@Maty514]

Good watch ty sir

[@Gtown_81]

I love how easy uthermal makes it look. Gold leaguer that has failed to copy any cheese.

[@user-ur4nl6dq2x]

My favourite uThermal cheese: Dutch Camembert

[@derpysean1072]

These cheese strats of yours are scary. People would not risk it and play greedy on the ladder anymore.

[@TeslaGengar]

challenge suggestion: random race, either mass oracle-muta-raven

[@codyheiner3636]

Giving MaNa some inspiration for his series and the upcoming Sentries only to GM :P

[@holographicmeatloaf1596]

right in time for lunch

[@michal888ful]

Best cheese ever was that one game where someone created Nexus in opp base, then hidden probe with it - next it was hidden pylon and then hidden army to kill opponent (I think Harstem made a joke tutorial for it) :) OF COURSE don't take it as sugestion/challenge for your new series or something:)

[@montypython5521]

should've started pooping the overlord and had the queen drop a tumor in game 1

[@EnemyN666]

Perfection 👌

[@thehoogard]

Don't play SC2 but for some reason I love watching these. Why do all map names end in "... LE"?

[@Kassidar]

Mark... turn overload creepdrop on when you're doing the zerg drop cheese

[@rockyweinstein5826]

AMAZING

[@SirVlad_IV]

How didn't you remember in the last game proxy Barack on the opponent's base with cloaked ghosts? That would be sooo cool to do again

[@zxczxczxc7240]

My favourite has to be planetary fortress rush, or proxy hatchery, I can't decide...

[@thomaschevrierlaliberte5884]

Best 🧀 was the intended multiple PF against the zerg. And every episode is indeed amazing. And now my like button is broken from smashing....

[@marphillois]

AMAZING cheese

[@Darkness2Maxrocko]

Hi is blocking an enemies 2nd base with a supply depot a good strat?

[@PashaSlavaUkraine]

FANTASTIC :) last game was so cheesy

[@JoeEames]

so awesome

[@gcl2783]

I enjoyed this episode.

[@Agentbillia]

really great episode. all cheese was fantastic

[@lex9141]

is there a playlist for your speedrunning series? i can't seem to find it.

[@uThermal]

Yep! It's an older playlist (I did about 5 videos over a year ago in the same form)
