Marc laughing like the evil villain during the carrier rush 💀 💀

[@lilkoolaidbro]

EASILY THE BEST PART LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@lordminsc24]

Maybe that could be a challenge. Wings of Liberty to GM!

[@Chris971.]

And he has to force six of his workers to be idle at the beginning of the game

[@00j80]

Proxy BombCloud. Take An exoiditionary unit accross the map and start at a disadvantaged while turtled.... only way to balance without patch

[@Toast_94]

TLO 7 rax all-in rush lets goooooooo!

[@lekhakaananta5864]

Time traveler to GM. Can only use units from [insert year], and builds that were meta at the time. Must say begin game by typing "gl hf WHAT YEAR ARE WE IN???"

[@kaerscarface]

The joyfull evil laugh when you killed that poor Terran...😅.

[@Digital_Goose]

9 Slow Zealots vs 3 base Zerg. 😂 You are going to time travel the ladder Marc.

[@adcyuumi]

Carriers always look either OP or useless, never anything between. Nature of any unit whose weakness is limited ammo, like Oracles.

[@sneediumminer]

The plus 1 air is fucking gigantic, makes carriers go from 37 dps to 45 dps, a nearly 25% increase. Thats like having 4 instead of 3 carriers, for 1/4 the cost. Definitely worth starting while your first carrier is still building, it's cost effective with just over a single carrier built.

[@skychaos87]

Its useless, he only managed to win cause his adapt denied the CC for such a long ass time and manages to kill off a bunch of marines. If not Terran would have way more and there is no way the carriers would have worked.

[@Starsword1989]

Your first game inspires a challenge: Templars only to GM. Build only HTs and DTs, and Archons.

[@sucksatciv5780]

It would be interesting to see how viable that is

[@amplifiedsilence9396]

He would die to any tier 1 unit. 2 reapers in his main and it’s GG. 😂

[@destonwong2577]

Only be viable if templar regen mana like the new Terran medivac.

[@hoofhearted4]

@@amplifiedsilence9396 he usually allows himself a few units for early things like that that just cant be avoided if youre going late game units.

[@Killopotamus]

@@hoofhearted4 Yeah like 2 adept/stalker or something would hold

[@Epyon1201]

imagine being like the top 5% of players and just getting farmed for content by a dude with one arm effectively being tied behind his back.

[@Airbag888]

So glad I found your channel.. you keep the language PG and narrate so perfectly despite doing like 400 APM.. aka I get to share this with my 8yo son :)

[@Gtown_81]

Uthermal laugh in second game is infectious. Just love seeing that utter delight in dishing out horrible punishnent

[@ja3482]

My current favorite psyop is Marc playing Toss off-race with ten times the skill as main-race GM Toss and calling every single unit* OP (Including, today, the Probes) haha. *edit: and building 😁

[@Mrmaverickism]

Don't forget the fleet bea.... fusion core

[@mark11tz]

In theory, a probe can give a kiss on any units and teleport a pylon in it with mini worm hole to blow it up. Op as F.

[@chloesmith4065]

Probes are really really good. Even Harstem would admit the probe is probably an S-rank unit.

[@asdfasdf-mn8iu]

@@chloesmith4065 Probes are only good because one single probe can warp in a whole base layout. Fighting-wise probes are the worst of the 3 units, because all they have is their shield regen.

[@lilkoolaidbro]

I love how marc casually makes MORE stargates lol

[@pilotnamealreadytaken6035]

17:28 "doctor evil laugh" 😂

[@pilotnamealreadytaken6035]

I would watch a 24/hour carrier cheese stream

[@pietu87]

Carrier rush is the most Terran thing you can do as Protoss 😂

[@DaddyDizz716]

Every Protoss video “I think I’ve mentioned before I used to be a Protoss main” hahahahah 😂😂😂

[@jamesgordon1446]

That probe at 7:30 was a silly goose

[@aneubeck4053]

Uploads have been stellar since your return

[@stevo123s]

LOL the cheaky laugh when the carriers rolled through was gold.

[@adamtennant4936]

OMG, the storms in that first game! 🌩🌩🌩

[@xilial]

5 storms to kill the rouches

[@shinjan-w5o]

I think KZbin algorithm is starting to like you. Dont stop making videos these days

[@burningsheep4473]

17:30 Leprechaun :D

[@jonathans.8650]

Love this Protoss series! 😍 Please, more Protoss content!

[@YeOldeManRiver]

I wouldn't be surprised if that Terran from the proxy carrier game submits that replay to Harstem for IODIS.

[@KoDoG06]

The laugh Thermy has when he completely owns someone is priceless.

[@leykias]

the kill at 12.31 is hilarious!!!

[@EssDubz]

These videos are so fun and entertaining. Cheesey, on the edgy of my seat, tilting, etc. The 30+ minute ghost vs BC game was just a slog. Couldn't even finish it.

[@CrymsenSC]

10/10 called the fleet beacon a fusion core awesome when u destroy with off race 13:24

[@WadeSmith-oe5xd]

We've been doing this to people for a decade in the lower leagues. Your first carrier kills about 20 marines or maybe 10 hydralisk before the enemy player stabilizes.

[@mauricegoz]

it’s weird that he knocks the zealot rush while simultaneously saying how effective and fun it is

[@SyzygyTT]

Terran could have taken that army and killed your bases before you killed him. Theoratically. There's no way he realises that during the match. WP

[@chloesmith4065]

It's something I often realize after the fact. Sometimes I don't even have to watch the replay, it's like right after I gg "yeah I should've just went for the base trade." Just another amazing, interesting aspect of starcraft, really fascinating how that hidden information affects people's decisions and whatnot

[@LitheInLitotes]

Dumb comment

[@ONEMANUNITX]

this guy. this is the second time ive felt like i had to comment something strong. but this guy is really nearly worth me joining. and ive never joined anyone hahahahaha

[@andrewblack6151]

watch how he defends the attack at the 9 min mark... dood is a beast that was awesome

[@barryb1490]

I love how happy he sounded in the last game 😊

[@dustinmorrison6315]

* Terran's natural gets blocked by probe. * Zerg: first time?

[@lilkoolaidbro]

Marc's troll laugh always gets me lol

[@Necrocidal]

That WoL slow zealot rush was brutal!

[@kevinhall6241]

Such a great series! Game 2 opponent needs a hug.

[@jordanmayer2016]

Best thing to wake up to is a thermy vid

[@balazsfenyes3880]

Uthermal does the 'every gold- MMR protoss build' that involves cannons, DT and carriers.

[@Siege181]

Marc, your the best silly goose on the ladder! Love the content!

[@irey6504]

wings of liberty were the days. remember when you could proxy pylon warp from low ground on to high ground?

[@paulypauly2062]

"but I'm annoying him, which is a bonus".... drop the merch thermal!

[@bookworm8415]

Bro. I PLAYED THAT when SCII first came out. Got me to diamond. Haha. Oh man, the memories. However, you did a way better job than i ever did, thats for sure. For those who didnt know, void rays increased in dmg the longer they focused on you uninterrupted and reapers and ling rushes were so broken, you'd straight up die if you didn't rush a cannon. Or at least, i would. The cannon gave you just enough time to do one thing and counterattack...maybe. But then toss also had the baby mothership back then too. Man. The memories. Lol

[@bookworm8415]

Oh. And terran were supposed to use scvs to just build thors in place... but i dont think that ever actually happened.

[@PenitentChaplain]

Loved the strat spread in these games.

[@nonamenosurname8516]

regarding 3rd game. I used to play WoL at kinda very high level (not on competitive level but close. I stopped playing SC2 in the middle of HotS). It is nice nostalgic game. I dont think I ever get 4g build order out of my head :D 3rd game really warmed my hearth to see +1/+2 4g/8g blink/charge push vs zerg. I have been playing this a LOT for several years :) - I love to watch it, I also loved to play it. There isnt anything more satisfying, then beating zerg on creep at his 3rd base with blink stalkers, and zealot warp-ins nearby vs bigger zerg army. But I have question: why arent those strategies being played today? Is it because zergs learnt how to deal with it? Different timing due to more workers at start so it doesnt have same impact? Or is it because "new" units are better?

[@TheNeomare]

I think you are right on the money there. If Zerg defends they are probably ahead. Zerg kept throwing the units onto zealots and losing them. If instead they collected a slightly bigger force and did a cleaner fight it would be a totally different story and it snowballs from there. I also guess even if the third falls for the zerg they are probably still ahead? I also think it is to hard to transition out of it as protoss. you are behind on both the tech and economy. Not sure what the best defense would be but I imagine if you scout it on time maybe you can even save the third with a well placed spine crawler. I think however the bigest crux of this build is that zergs build a lot of queens these days because they are great against everything. you can defend with queens against slow zealots really well. Things started snowballing once that first queen got surrounded I do not think that is supposed to happen. 9 zealots cost as much as 6 queens. I imagine that is a very one sided fight in favor of the queens. they also do well against stalkers if they have zergling backup. it is only a matter of buying enough time to build them. As for why it used to work and not anymore. Number of starting workers could definitely be one of the reason. Another one could be standardization of maps. If maps got bigger or smaller or third bases more defensible that would be another reason that things changed. Also players got much better as well in the meantime and learned a lot. This kind of all in has a skill ceiling there is only as much micro you can pull of with a bunch of zealots, once the zergs learned how to play cleaner as well ( micro queens properly, micro roaches properly ) without damage that zealots did blink stalker follow up would not look as deadly. I think. that would be my guess. would be happy to see somebody with litle bit more hands on experience to shine some light on the matter what the biggest factor actually is.

[@thingsthatgobomb]

I'd love to see a robo to GM. Just a cheese with an army of colossi beaming everything down.

[@aerob1033]

I'm a simple man, I see new thermy clickbait, I click

[@whynow4306]

Actually its ridiculous that Zerg can get 2-3 ultras most likely not fully upgraded by 6 min mark. Where you can simply block them/run away, kill them with air etc. And here protoss have 2 carriers already flying at 5:25 that you simply cant avoid

[@chir0pter]

this was awesome. i want to see Ancient Aliens series- builds from 2010-2011 WoL

[@DarylMetzler]

WoL builds winning in 2023. What a game. what a cheese. WP!

[@TheAndrwwJohnson]

So great, thanks for the best sc2 content!

[@00j80]

Best Technical Commentator in Starcraft.

[@agustingtkr]

Lunch time is uthermal cheese time hahaha

[@alk672]

Next time I lose a TvP to something like this (which happens about 2 or 3 times a day any day I play), I'll just pretend it was uThermal. Really makes it easier to swallow than the reality (which is that you need 50 APM and a quarter of a brain to do this at my MMR).

[@alk672]

I've never been able to shake the feeling that normal laws of RTS don't really apply to protoss. Playing TvP, I never feel like it makes sense. They can go into everything at once, have a third an an all-in attack, they can change direction of their build at any moment in time and unless terran reacts immediately and perfectly - they are ahead. It just doesn't seem to make any sense.

[@thrashandburn10221]

It's the Khala 😆 they move and think as one 🧠

[@MenzeL7]

Thx… now I know what all Protoss will play in ladder today

[@Diogenes2077]

Well, as long as they are not playing against people a thousand MMR below them they'll probably die trying.

[@john_hFg]

The disgusting cheese series is my favorite.❤

[@juanjosejaimesmillan9070]

uthermal one question . How can I capture the camera in the game, to locate myself quickly?, What keys do I have to press?

[@fred.dekker]

oldstyle hyper mode 🙃 perfect entertainment

[@davidelrizzo]

Great games! More Carriers and Laser Giraffes please 🙏❤

[@hello_hello435]

Man, flashbacks to when I use to play haha

[@RoboticsBay]

I legit got WoL flashback memories. Good times.

[@SindarinElealar]

Honestly, that +1 Zealot rush makes me think of Brood War... +1 Zealots smacking Zerglings two games in a row.

[@dj_koen1265]

Ye between the forge expand and +1 slow zealot push It was clear early protoss players played like it was bw

[@minimeatball253]

I’ve seen 2 Mech-y looking Zerg theme’s from uthermals vids, is that like a skin or something? looks cool

[@dawnstar81]

Yeah you can buy them in-game. Even if you don't have it you still see it if your opponent is using them.

[@L-uu7fq]

The carrier broke him haha oh man, well done 👍✅

[@bobby4tw]

How do I stress this enoygh?! Sentry!!​ Gateway units with Sentry as the main unit to Grand Master. Gogogo

[@chaosprinz1983]

Yay daily Dose!

[@diazalex5314]

Feels like this is how an evil genius is born😂

[@heremits]

I think there is time for a challenge: random mind games.

[@randomletters543]

Can you do a mothership probe all in

[@sloanNYC]

Can a cyclone with lock on out range the carrier?

[@murphy54000]

they have +1 range over the carrier, but carriers have +0.5 launch range and can change targets within 14 range without needing to move.

[@fenderOCG]

Holy crap video after video is a scorcher, what a run

[@jaysoncooley1865]

Why do people only block mining with their probes against Zerg?

[@Dimondius]

21:54 it's just cold outside

[@lynk5902]

Harstem will be getting another IODIS submission from that second game...

[@sc2starkey]

Archons running from roaches 😂😂😂

[@knappador]

Open Void Ray. No scout, and they won't make spores as early.

[@emanuelubierna8361]

I dont need to play anymore, looking at you is way more fun

[@kdis1977]

I only tune in for uthermals evil laugh

[@maximk9964]

I don't know, for Wings of Liberty Protoss I would've expected 50 void rays

[@RMutt-fj1sz]

Love the joy!

[@00j80]

Did I witness a Casual Dual Carrier Scout?

[@Hallenhero]

Uthermals newest build? : His oldest build.

[@hwile]

Why did the spores burn? I thought they were supposed to bleed??

[@murphy54000]

it's a mecha-zerg skin.

[@Siirr22]

Does anyone else desperately want to see Uthermal cannon rush to GM?

[@bartdebaere2252]

Mark Denying GM since 2010 🤣

[@Guyinkgo]

Great challenge! 😊

[@jackryan6446]

Probes aren't broken, your micro is LOL! You micro your probes like a reaper :)

[@Xelnarash]

pls send this to Pig ... i would be intressted what he has to say ... well .. if the enemy gets salty

[@Necrocidal]

vs zerg, after 1st DT push get a void ray to kill overseers if he tries to push or defend 3rd :D

[@КарлКарыч]

Hahah Kingcobra style

[@henrywallace1732]

The Carrier rush was pure cancer xD I need more

[@graham1403]

Future series: WoL builds to Grandmaster?

[@easycake3251]

Mmm... those storms...

[@fivenine1057]

No shield batteries back then 😢

[@Ty-bz7zx]

*B*A*N*G*I*N*

[@Theyeti17]

ThE VOiD huNGeRS 🛸

[@justatiger6268]

uThermal is just pure evil. That laugh :/

[@MrPZS]

uff esa cochinada protoss esta super OP no me jodas es frustrante defenderse de eso

[@konstantinalpatov1221]

Oh my god, I'm confused. As a diamond terran I'm in disgust. As a fan of tight builds this warms my heart.

[@christianprice9832]

Honestly, how was that Terran almost 5000 mmr? 4888 is so high for the number of micro mistakes.
