[@raultrincado7110]

I laughed when I saw that tank rolling with the marines because at that moment I knew uthermal was omega focused

[@datman6266]

Exactly.. saw a tank I was like.. wut? he was on autopilot.. ..I wish I could be this good on autopilot..

[@yann5546]

For me it was that reaper going out like "dont worry guys im just a very fast marine nothing wrong here"

[@Necroneer]

Thing is it felt so natural as well that I didn't really notice it.

[@joelferrer2513]

uthermal noticing he has tanks is the most wholesome thing I've seen all year

[@Supergoon1989]

31:50 "Dear Harstem: Marines are so imba, they just walk into my base without stim and kill everything before I could even get banelings to counter them...."

[@lynk_1240]

I am astounded I have not seen ANY of his challenge videos on IODIS yet.

[@slimpwarrior]

@@lynk_1240 your wish has been granted

[@momchilandonov]

@@slimpwarrior is he featured already? Can you give me the name/link pls?

[@fateriddle14]

Why does he build tanks? Probably misclick, he'll relize it immediately and kill it himself Wait, he builds 2 more? And actually fight with them what the hell? Let me check the challenge name real quick... hmm... 100 years later... uThermal: "Wait, why do I build tanks?"

[@MadMathMike]

Hahaha this is exactly what I went through in my head! 🤣

[@dexiedude]

Not even shook by the opponents. Shook by his own mistake of making tanks.

[@Lollonman1]

I love that face, the exact moment he realized he was playing with tanks was priceless

[@ET2048]

Really impressed that you don't accidentally use non-challenge units more often

[@lxm360]

it put a smile on my face when you realized that you had tanks, i could tell you were oober focused. great video

[@koka360]

You cheated!?!? Oh no! Now the series has to start over *wink *wink Thank you for the awesome content as always!

[@T1stG]

i just laughed when uthermal started using the tanks normally xD so focused he never noticed. even had a random reaper in his drop at 14:30 lol

[@luckylarry71]

ForGG is a realy smart guy. I remember his rivalry with Polt, and how these two adapted to eachother's builds every game, thinking 20 steps ahead, so it's really no surprise that he scouted you on that second game at all.

[@juggling8557]

You are so relentlessly positive and wholesome. Came for the starcraft, stayed for the good vibes!

[@ZipZamZach]

uThermal: *vibing with tanks in marine challenge* also uThermal: **GASP** why do I have seige tanks???

[@brakthalas]

"I was supposed to have three tanks there." Every viewer "Are you sure about that?"

[@ctwest3601]

I really enjoyed that, it was so smooth that you were playing more serious and it just naturally turned into a normal pro match. Best cheating scandal!

[@mnoukadlo5745]

That was so epic when you realized you are autopiloting marine tank :D :D And afterwards like the true emperor you gave the order 66, tanks so surprised when the marines executed all of them :D

[@sfshrimp]

Awesome videos, I don’t even play StarCraft but I enjoy these so much

[@Eddyhartz]

Marine Medivac ... and Tanks and Ravens and Cyclones and BCs and Banshees and Widow mines to grand master.

[@veeeepeeee]

these drawn-out games where bases get exchanged and rebuilt and either player is trying to subsist under one another's noses are just too good. very interesting to see things be played out to really bitter ends like that.

[@Animitzi]

The moment you realized you accidently built tanks was so great! You went so long without acknowledging the elephant in the room that I started to question my own sanity. Love the vids

[@Vaxsysl]

16:22 It was at that moment, uthermal knew, he fricked up.

[@Dangerpurple]

I saw the siege tank and I thought you explained why you made it and I kept scrolling around waiting for you to explain why you made it then suddenly you realize lol

[@WhyWhatWhoWhenWhyAgain]

Saaaaaame

[@sebastiankumlin9542]

On monday, I expect SkyTerran!

[@daveo1808]

I'm sad to say that I had no idea until you said something lol, thanks for the awesome videos sir love watching these every day

[@kf7137]

The epic cheater gasp is at 16:20 🤣

[@milletmongoose]

16:20 I was waiting for this moment and I guffawed out loud (GOL.. gonna make this a thing dammit). I was grinning up until then.

[@eulefranz944]

Terrans and sieging bases is like bread and butter Understandable that you built them Your reaction was insanely funny at 16:21 !! You see the endless swarm of marines and the name of the challenge clicks in your head. All gears were turning and then the shock sets in hahaha

[@ssvensic]

Building tanks actually slowed you down, you would have better upgrades and a 4 medevacs worth of marines more. And only thing tanks actually did was keep him at bay in the beginning

[@sfshrimp]

LOL I was watching waiting until 16:25 I was like “okay I’m not crazy 😂”

[@spinfrost]

Lmao when he realized he had tanks.

[@Yorekani]

That third game against the Zerg was totally like some WoL campaign mission. Commander Raynor waltzing through together with some War Pigs (elite Marines) and shooting everything dead.

[@aarongazzaniga1929]

In all fairness you do sometimes make units that you're not allowed to build, but you usually catch it and punish yourself before you use them. I like the honesty to the challenges

[@loafbreed7246]

HELL YEA would love to see coop content from you I definitely think it has potential - it's also the only mode i play outside of campaign & arcade. would be interesting to see how your ladder knowledge translates.

[@hamburgers7817]

Laughing at those tanks, I might have been smoking while watching and was like wait isn't this the marine challenge so confused haha

[@monstersaint]

That's the best realization, in a while. Yes, wholesome. Hilarious. We'll never recover Thermy. LOL.

[@notcrazy6288]

That look of absolute horror when he finally realized he had tanks lol. Worth the whole video.

[@crabapplemcnasty3546]

Really glad to have found your content, as is often the case a good video may get my like but a great personality gets my sub. Keep doing what you do and coming up with fun ideas, I expect I'll be here regardless!

[@HappyTwoBe]

At was in this moment... uThermal knew he'd f**ked up 🤣🤣🤣 Lol the look on his face too. Autopilot finally gets turned off at 16:21 😊 ggwp uThermal, awesome games as always. I think we all can collectively forgive you. You play a lot of challenges and the rules are always strict so breaking them once isn't that big of a deal.

[@bobjohnson1096]

I just figured you made an exception to the rule fighting someone so high level. XD!

[@dryadelder]

Oh my god, that focus level ^^ ... :D Good job :) I mean you had a game against high elo player, and that might turn into autopiloting, so obv your muscle memory kick's in... ^^ We are all humans... Very good job... and your reaction on your autopilot ?... awesome ^^.. + you are the one of few what dont hide it ^^..

[@benjamindudas9386]

Hey uThermal! I know you would absolutely enjoy my idea! I thaught of a "troll play to grandmaster". You could execute moves like kiting his army to a nuke drop, or nuking his base and right after you drop steam packed marines in his base with medivacs or similar. I am not an SC2 player, I don't know if the idea is executable, but you play so well, I think you could really play in a trolling way.

[@gatorboy25000]

ForGG was my favorite Terran 10 years ago, cool to see he's still going strong.

[@mirado8738]

If you are looking at some co-op challenges, then you may find the arcade map nexus coop interesting. It has all the normal coop maps plus one more with several new and cool mutations and new commanders. Also a good tip for all coop lovers.

[@contemplate1789]

On like 9:30 of that game I scrolled to the start of the game to re-watch... I couldn't understand why we do have tanks. Also checked challenge name. I thought I just missed Marc saying that he decided to build them! But I haven't missed! 😂

[@Damndaniel51]

I did the same thing!! I was washing dishes while watching and then saw the tank. Had to stop restart and try to catch why he made it! Thought that his cheat was later in the video and he made it intentionally. I laughed so hard when he realized 😂😂

[@km333dev2]

Hahahaha I thought I missed an episode and you went into phase 2 with tanks or something LOL

[@wiider2510]

you should do a co-op 3v3 where each member is one unit style, bio/air/armour

[@DpNemo]

the moment he realized he made tanks... pricless

[@dennis2society]

HAHA that is too funny. I shit u not right b4 this vid i got suggested ur semi final matchup vs serral 3 years ago (obviously i had to watch u go full thermi) and there i saw u use tanks and i thought "huh thats how it looks when he goes no challenge" and then i first recognized u use ur tanks when u looked up the single one up the ramp and just like u said it - i saw it but didnt see it - something was off but couldnt tell. u da man. enjoy ur tea!

[@propeacemindfortress]

@Mark I have to come to come back here... your "cheating", I did not mind it... actually... I would love to see you revisting your old cheeses for "Post Grand Finale" and doing your composition +1 ... Example MassRaven Hellbat/Cars + Ghost, then +BC, then +? Content I deas can be difficult, but I think that "extra" is something a lot of your viewers not just me would enjoy it basicly takes your cheeze out of the "cheese rule" (post grand finale 😉😉) and gives it a real utility factor on top of the fun factor. Your fans and students get extra content and extra ideas/guidance what would go good with it or against what race which additional unit does best... doesn't have to be random number generator or going down a list but can be totally based on the early scouting insight to turn those fun and effective combinations DEADLY yeah!!! Slaughter em ALLL muahahaha heheheh (sry^^ had too^^) Love your stuff ;)

[@michaelgibson6166]

I was a massive ForGG fan back in the day .

[@_Wai_Wai_]

That thumbnail looks incredible

[@matthewwallace5682]

The moment of realization ... hilarious. We forgive you

[@MadMathMike]

I had forgotten the title of the video, so when the first tank came out, I was super confused! I was waiting for that moment at 16:21 for what felt like an eternity! 😂

[@ronaldo-cf3pu]

oh no, my personal hero cheated! I'm gonna use that as my villain origin story uthermal!

[@seven2864]

16:08 uThermal: "I do think I actually missclicked and lost 2 tanks in the front and that might've the losing move... Because I suppose to have 3 tanks here and I only got one left..." A lil bit later: "Oh, wait... Why do I have siege tanks???"

[@WhyWhatWhoWhenWhyAgain]

Laughing so hard at the tanks auto rolling out of base

[@ronaldo-cf3pu]

What do you think of playing/making videos with other races? I have an idea for a challenge: you do whatever your enemy did last game, like he tried a cannon rush? next game, you play protoss and try to canon rush your enemy etc. would love to see that ^-^

[@LouisLeGros]

I was so close to getting into a coop game with Marc on the last stream

[@Ayrinth]

At I was like - heh - did I miss an episode, why are there suddenly tanks there. Then he was like "Oh, why do I have tanks here" and then I knew the answer :D It was quite funny.

[@gyoyyk1]

You should've brought that last tank close to your opponent's units first, and then execute it demonstratively for the extra wtf effect. Edit: and this gives me an idea for another silly challenge - you do one of your normal challenges where tanks are normally not involved, but in this case you actually make some and then try as hard as possible not to inflict any damage with them. E.g. you scout with them, "tank" (take damage) while other units shoot, occasionally you execute one of them in from of your enemy as an act of intimidation. It'll be like bongcloud, only better (I promise).

[@vakilian]

Idea for a challenge (apologies if these have been suggested already) 1. AIR TERRAN TO GRANDMASTER ie Viking/Banshee/BC only 2. OFF RACE TO GRANDMASTER Great videos man, thanks for uploading so frequently

[@henningbreede6428]

His off races are already in GM and air terran is something he's been talking about for a while. We already know that it's the next challenge after cyclone/mine.

[@rothenbergt]

His next challenge is air Terran. Coming up soon! 😊

[@vakilian]

@@rothenbergt ah awesome I didn't know, thanks! Look forward to it

[@quicksilver39]

Let's go!!!

[@muffinbutton8858]

It was even in the title and I forgot too lol. So funny

[@aldemarranthisspaceintenti9852]

No tanks for you! And I actually love the idea of you exploring coop builds. Please, bring it on!

[@milletmongoose]

28:58 - Huh, I always learned to pull all 3 drones out of gas at 100 so I can have enough minerals for 4 queens and ling speed. I'd like to know what other zergs are doing nowadays.

[@milletmongoose]

Also, your opponent could have spared his lings and turned them into banelings instead of throwing them into your marine ball, but I can understand that he wouldn't think that in the middle of the game.

[@propeacemindfortress]

demoted? goooood! Means we get more episodes 😍

[@Juice-chan]

UThermal with the imposter marines

[@IsaacScharp]

The moment I see that tank I start laughing and just don't stop.

[@IsaacScharp]

@uThermal you seeing this?

[@hoofhearted4]

16:12 you werent supposed to have any tanks hhaha

[@fenryrtheshaman]

The way you didn't stim to trick your opponent was really cool

[@VestigialHead]

The tanks did confuse me. I thought oh is this a different challenge uThermal is doing?

[@kaiser2261]

I literally rewinded further and further back to see if you had justified the tanks for some reason and I had missed it lmfao

[@DarkSaruman]

I would love to see some SC2 coop videos!

[@westkoastdogg6680]

the tanks made u blush haha

[@llllllllllllllIIlIllIIllIIIIll]

I like to have a beer and watch uthermal

[@patitio487]

It all started from that moment 12:00

[@margidda]

it would be cool to see you do coop

[@alk672]

The first tank I didn't notice... the second tank was what did it for me.

[@juny9445]

16:23.riiiiiiiight...new series..mas cheating to GM,tank edition.

[@sellis2819]

wouldn't mind seeing some pro v pro with the co-op commanders. the main thing is this channel is mostly just you streaming so doing doubles could be odd. could try soloing some of the co-ops for fun

[@ryjelsum]

lmao he did a mini bongcloud as a legit strat against cannon rush basically that's good shit

[@davidjordan393]

Not going to lie If he had won that game I would have been disappointed he didn't instance concede the game when he realized he had used he shouldn't have for the Challenge (If he doesn't use the units in combat it doesn't matter to me) Cant say I have much interest in co op but I think it would be cool if he did 2v2 challenges or other race challenges would be pretty cool Keep up the great work with the videos I have really enjoyed watching you challenges videos!

[@CplSpider]

Great video, as always. Can you explain how you set up your camera positions and what hotkeys you use for it?

[@Koshak87]

12:34 - chunky “marine” time.

[@s4if]

Takeway from G3: marine is OP... lol

[@valpanig]

it was part of the grand master level games, 2 tanks allowed per command center

[@SvendleBerries]

To be fair, with all the different challenges you do, Im surprised making this mistake doesnt happen more often lol

[@lawless9056]

Can we have the APM meter up all the time?

[@eriksih7832]

Yea coop is awesome to see you play also

[@cjjavellana]

When i saw the tanks, i have to read again what challenge you were doing, slow APM or marine medivac.

[@AndrewArts]

3:00 Freud is rolling in his grave!!!

[@vincentqiao5930]

He built 1 tank… Me:“Oh, he miss-clicked” He sieged the tank... Me:“Hmm?” He built 2 tank… Me:“What’s going on?” He lost all 3 tanks and annotating: “We were supposed to have 3 tanks”…Me: “Hmmm, are you sure about that?”

[@nyambe]

I didnt realize either about the tanks

[@_OpFor]

dear Harstem... Marines with combat shield are OP

[@wayfarerzen3393]

CHEESE, EVERYWHERE Excellent games lmao

[@patoguzman4275]

You could play the campaign in brutal mode

[@sinephase]

LMAO how you totally brainfarted on the siege tanks XD

[@Dangerpurple]

Afternoon cheese time

[@Outshinedsg]

Game three may be the most "a-move" game in a while. Literally just make marines and walk over their base =P.
