[@randalhinman9648]

I'm 52 years old. Played Blizzard RTS games all the way back to Warcraft 1 through Starcraft II. Found your videos and didn't even realize this game was still being played at a high level. I appreciate and enjoy your commentary. Makes me want to get back into it.

[@ryanj610]

Koreans will never stop

[@S3IIL3CT]

also theres of course serral, clem and maxpax which are a pleasure to watch

[@PJOZeus]

It's more of a commentary of how bad and ideologically poisoned the industry has been since Hell Starcraft 1 has a bigger competitive scene than Starcraft 2 just much more Korea locked, LOTV and such, when there was still active development, kind of took big chunks from the game

[@randalhinman9648]

Looks like there has been quite a few changes to the game since I last played. Probably been 15 years ago now. The game still looks to be a lot of fun and competitive even with newer games today.

[@ZC.Andrew]

​@@randalhinman9648It's a better game than it was 15 years ago. And it's even more competitive now. Despite idiots who keep calling the game "dead," the ladder is still very much alive, and bigger and bigger tournaments keep happening, including an upcoming million-dollar one. There's honestly never been a better time to jump back into it. Glhf!

[@IRdatank]

Winter, I hope you enjoy making this content half as much as I enjoy consuming it. Many people go their entire lives searching for what their purpose is. I believe this is yours.

I was today years old when i realized: if Dark neuraled a probe and teched up to templar, they would be Dark's templar...

[@ZC.Andrew]

It's so dark, it requires two scans to see it. 😂

[@bt920]

36:41 holy shit Trap's oracle harass/micro is wonderful to watch on those drones!

[@OpiatesAndTits]

Or just kinda filthy like I suppose at a certain point you make a second spore and it might be worth it

[@justinpeterson7246]

From a lore and gameplay perspective, motherships should be immune to yoinks of all kinds. Absurdity of the highest order that a winged worm can yoink a flying city. Also, the 'incident' lmao!

[@orangepearlf40]

Zerg logic.

"The Incident" was a surprise. Gave me a solid, respectable, chuckle.

A really good PvZ is a lot of fun to watch. It feels so much less hard countery than TvP.

[@RainingYayo]

37 year old here - Been playing this game since Grade 5. Great content brother 🙏🙏

[@NnNeo-ql2kq]

The 2nd game is incredible. Trap really turn the game to his own advantage also Trap is known as the best defensive Protoss

[@bkeerz]

Honest question.. Better defensively than Die Mauer?? Also known as ShoWTime.

[@Wwillswords]

​@bkeerz an argument could be made for trap or showtime depending on your personal position. For example, recency bias or just general worse skill during traps time of fame or just the general chaos trap routinely had to deal with are both arguments in either direction

[@OpiatesAndTits]

@@bkeerzI dunno he’s cooking here. Great offense, great robo unit preservation and insane defense. Honestly not sure what dark or rag where supposed to do? Get burrow in case of glaives XD problem there is oracles tag

[@christopherscott6383]

Yeah!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉Let's Freaking Go! Jimmy, I'm not sure anything starts a day off better than Winter casting SC2 😅

[@cubandarknez]

SPOILER wow Trap showed a lot of grit to commit to the base trades. Hard to confidently do so when the stakes are high, since it can be a thin line between a winning trade, and just looking silly.

[@Buddha2723]

The anti-spoiler games really increase my enjoyment. I don't have to avoid looking at the time remaining for the most part, which is very nice.

[@Naointeressa-vz7ph]

The déjà vu stunlock 😂

In that second game where dark's supply plummeted, it was the immortals putting in work.

I have never played StarCraft before but I love halo wars 1 and 2 and this looks like my type of game about to try it out

[@zergstirfry]

If you throw in an anti-spoiler I will watch it and trust in your choice. You always know how to show a game in an entertaining and interesting way

[@amputechure]

"Watch me dance, Susan!"

[@jeffreyrook8073]

I know players like Classic and Gumiho have been changing it up, but that start to match point was like an entirely different player.

[@TheRecurrence]

"BRENDA THE HUBRIS!"

NO, YOU'RE BREATHTAKING!

[@JohnCephas]

Is it just me who hears 'chargelots' as 'chargenauts' when Winter says it?

[@joshgoulash4889]

I noticed the incident just before Winter did. Had to go back and check the previous game. I have to believe that Jimmy's getting a strong reprimand after that one.

[@bcaraveo03]

Did jimmy get an earful after this is the question

[@andrewferris6239]

The Hubris of Brenda, I died.

Vipers are so OP it's ridiculous. Bad enough they're the second-most powerful spell caster in the game, but the consume to re-energize in seconds?!

[@TheRecurrence]

"no, I'll keep it as a bug so that way it doesn't get nerfed"... BURN lol

[@Cellus5000]

Zerg army try to kill a single protoss unit challenge

[@ntm4]

Honestly, I feel like the Amphion game was won in spite of the glaives attack, not because of it. That said, it is nice seeing a shake-up in the PvZ meta.

[@bt920]

Woohoo!! Anti spoiler games! Thank you Winter for answering my prayers. Trap is looking in top form!! Everyone, Like and Subscribe!!

[@ulysesjoos6628]

Great games Winter! always entertaining.

You got me back playing the campaign of SC2 for old times sake. Been fun Ty. QQ why does it seem like we see so little protoss in finals? Most of your vids are TvZ?

Am I missing something but why didn't dark go after the spore in the expansion while it was morphing vs the useless hits on the hatch

sad day when dark loses really is damn fatherhood got him slippin

If you had to specifically rank Dark against other pros where do you have him at?

With Serral gone for now it should be painfully clear how terribly balanced Zerg is for fair game. Protos have been buffed against terran but also become basically unbeatable with similar or higher(!) APM/skill zerg now
