This Is The Greatest Zerg Cheese Of ALL TIME (No, Seriously)

This can’t be said enough, thanks for bringing me back to SC2 and making me absolutely love it because of your videos. That despite me not being very good

[@sako2239]

Shhh his saving his creep spreading skills for his widow mine spread. Somehow he can cover the map with mines but not creep.

[@Toast_94]

One thing I believe you should consider taking advantage of is the overlord's generate creep ability. When you transport queens with a nydus you'll usually have an overlord nearby, use that overlord to dump creep on them so they can transfuse, even just long enough to place a tumor in their base. :3 You can also do other cheeky things like building proxy spines without a hatch, delaying expansions since it takes 45 seconds for that creep to fully dissipate, or dropping a queen with it to place a creep tumor at these expansions that vs terran they'll have to spend a scan or tech to a raven to be able to take. Edit: or use it to hide tech buildings by placing them away from your bases.

[@dogabutila]

Yea. Or even prevent spines from taking damage when the hatchery dies

[@soulofshukaku]

Marc's strats are Dark level, but his creep mechanics are definitely not. Rank 100 GM if he ever learns to use creep effectively.

[@AC3handle]

@@soulofshukaku Marc's strength is micromanaging fighters. I'd be hard pressed to say there's many others than top tier players that can match him. But managing base stuff, especially overlords, creep, etc...not so much. But he's great at managing workers of every race, he just needs to extend that to Zerg.

[@BusterBeachside]

I like how in each video, the titles get more and more certain that THIS is the most disgusting cheese ever, lol. Also, whenever I hear you say ""Maybe he's not paying attention", I instantly become glued to the screen to see what you're about to pull off! XD It has "last thing you hear before you die" energy

[@124horst]

that shadow of the mule at 17:40 because there was an overlord in the natural that had vision on the mineral line. Haven't seen that from so far away before

[@MasthaX]

Always love seeing your enthousiasm every video and your analytical commentary, cheers from the homeland!

[@Nizmopower]

Absolutely loving your content. The cheese ones are by far my favourite, however it's also enjoyable to watch you transition from cheese into macro games so fluently.

[@Bagheera2]

Sir its YOU. Every cheese you do is great. 🤣🤣🤣

[@Acetazy]

My guy, I love your videos. I really enjoy them, I've tried out SC2 on and off and your videos inspire me to come back. I just think you could have twitch chat create your video titles for one or two videos (maybe with spin the wheel mini game?) Just to add any kind of variety to them. Keep up the awesome work & content

[@WikiED]

uThermal is exactly what you want to watch from ppl with high skills in a game: using their great skills to make garbage work creates unique and entertaining watching experiences. Pro games in any game are incredibly boring as they always funnel down to the same strategies you see in every other pro game it's like a groundhog day. uThermal puts modifiers/conditions on himself, every pro game should have a wheel with modifiers spun to decide entertainment from said game seeing incredible skills players have to make a real spectacle.

[@ghetifal]

Yeah. Imagine if conventional sports had standardized strategies. Oh, wait...

[@enriquegarciacota3914]

Imagine how much better this would have been with a faster ultralisk burrow. It’s such a critical buff for Zerg, a truly qualitative change that the unit desperately needs.

[@briananderson3627]

That and adding +5 to ultralisk range

[@kw8295]

Gotta love the Ultra Autobahn, I would be salty after a loss like that Terran had ouch. Great cheese uThermal!

[@user-uz8js5bm9i]

Wow this was an absolute masterpiece of unorthodox zerg!

[@GrahamSmith1523]

This is the Zerg cheese episode I was waiting for, thanks so much.

[@vladislavkerdyashkin9120]

Thanks for the ultras. It was very fun to watch. Hope for some more ultras or hydras or somtheing weird like that in future games :)

[@zeejustin6]

I'd love an ultra/hyrda rush! ultras to soak up the damage for the hydras.

[@user-c4b9b]

Thermy one of the greatest of all time, single handedly brought me back to SC2 - you rock man it's a treat to have a channel like yours

[@saurianwatcher4437]

24:35 what was that weird grid thing with a health bar by the refinery?

[@KingCobra459]

I know it has already had it's own time to shine in other series, but that doesnt usually stop you from pulling out builds you enjoy haha... I am quite surprised to not have really seen any classic uThermal spine rushes recently haha

[@davidelrizzo]

Loving the Ultras... BUT I want to see like 20 of them like you did with the Thor match 😂😂😂

[@mariogutierrez4989]

An opponent hearing the nydus sound is as panic inducing as "nuclear launch detected". MORE nydus chaos please.

[@orfeo-7_]

When you get a worm in the main I think you should use a queen to place creep tumors. People seem to underestimate the power of denying realistate with creep. It also forces them to commit attention and resources to clearing it.

[@kudohlol9379]

When you are good at the game and you have a personality and a great commentating voice, you get Uthermal.

[@danielmata610]

@uthermal thank you for all the great content. I’ve been subscribed for years and your videos are what I watch the most. Thank you!

[@volodymyr_budii]

22:40 Since you already have lair, you could have brought an overlord and spread creep with it to get transfuse

[@Slywinters]

"this has been an incredibly confusing game and I'm the one in the driver seat..". Is exactly why you're the best

[@Neront90]

Hey, how about adreno glands rush? it will be very fun and intresting

[@vitaligofman1801]

hello again! have you considered dropping creep from overlords to be able to transfuse on the front lines?

amazing content, it is so enjoyable to watch your videos. Thank you for doing this

[@dashvash5440]

Admittedly, I haven't seen every video. Been watching more. If you know or have a theory/educated guess, I would love to hear why a cheese build probably doesn't work in pro or why you think it could. Obviously, this would be tedious to do every video but I'm always interested in hearing more about theory/strategy especially in pro SC.

[@disinformationworld9378]

This is the most epic Zerg content ever. Now you have to do a series on ultra rushing.

[@natecw4164]

You had me at Ultra Nydus.

[@michaelswain868]

@Uthermal If you end up wanting to do longer macro games for zerg content ling/bane/infestor/ultra is a real composition and you are basically a baneling nest away from getting to it off of your ultra rush. I still reckon if you want early game zeg aggression you are better off going up to 3 bases ASAP just so you can really try zerg your opponent... Even unconventional cheesy and aggressive zergs like Bly and Meomaika will typically go up to 3 bases before they get aggressive usually trading very efficiently just off the back of higher supply than their adversities and either crushing them, getting good eco damage or trading up in resource value with a follow up of either further macro, more units or upgrades.

[@rzrzrzrzrzrzrzrzrzrzrz]

This video keeps showing in my feed what algorithm magic is this

[@ltsarunas614]

I have never delved into SC2 MM, but, as a zerg "main", i can tell you, you're expressing my dream zerg plays

[@ChristofferFlensburg]

Now I want to see the ultra rush with medivacs healing them in a 1v2! That is the 2v2 with ally leaving at start.

[@TT55_STS525]

SCV steal with infestor neural would also do the trick, and it's way more cool.

[@00j80]

When you say (for real seriously.... when is is from uThermal... You know it is NOT clickbait. Period.

[@maximk9964]

Don't see ultras very often, so this is pretty exciting

[@eelcohoogendoorn8044]

Same; ive only ever seen them be used as a late game desperation play; almost a pity-play as to say to the opponent 'look how trash my zerg late game units are this game is imba amirite'. But I have to say when rushed like this (and when your opponent refuses to build marauders I suppose) they do seem really scary.

[@kevinchang5082]

@@eelcohoogendoorn8044I use ultras generally as finishing move if im ahead and i know theyre stuck on a high marine count. Ultras with the armor upgrade make marines useless as seen in this video. But yeah ive also thrown games before with them 😂

I'm surprised you haven't used any strategy that involves droping creep from overlords. Maybe something like you go for dropolords and along with other stuff you drop drones that morph into spines on creep that you drop and then rush with them? Great episode.

I watch a good amount of pro play with a friend and Ultras are the one we make fun of the most. Love that you're doing zerg cheese since it's almost non existent. Really hoping the patch fixes my, limited, view of competitive SC. Terran is my fave but it's too strong. Zerg had fallen far but made a bit of a resurgence. Protoss had seemed so so weak.
