I haven’t played SCII in years and I don’t follow the tournaments, I literally only consume it as media through your channel and it’s a complete joy whenever you upload, settling in to watch a comfy curated edit of exciting clips that still manage to form a cohesive narrative within matches and series. Keep it up!

[@SC2HL]

Love to hear this! Hopefully the StarCraft interest stays and you’ll keep watching ;) I do definitely encourage you to play some StarCraft! I still play in my free time and there’s nothing more rewarding than getting that sweet promotion. I wish there were bigger patches, and new units introduced to make it more invigorating for a casual audience (we haven’t had a major patch in years).

[@magnusbjarnisk]

Would recommend watching Lowko and Harstem as well, since Lowko has decent quality content (longer games, but not as good commentation) and Harstem is obviously a pro, so he has exceptional insight to the game and provides great commentary. SC2HL is still great, since it provides all the highlights from brilliant games in a small package, but if youre hungry for more, then Lowko or Harstem are also good.

[@jonas1247]

Ryung was very patient through out the GSL. Never overextending, truly a masterful game

[@methodcafe]

I have absolutely no clue how 10 zealots, 5 archons, 11 stalkers, 5 colossi and 2 sentries lost against 13 marauders, 9 ghosts, 13 medivacs and 46 marines @12:55. It seems like Ryung strategically tanked the 5 colossi with his marauders and 13 medivacs on the right side and pulled his marines back, while Zest's unfortunate blink left with his stalkers had them engaging into pure marines with no colossus support. By any measure that I would have taken this fight as Terran I would have lost conclusively.

[@Pher0cious]

Archons vs emp really?

[@vampuricknight1]

Yep, After his cheese he had a slight advantage and was able to maintain and expand his lead slightly through a larger economy. However, he treated it like he had this overwhelming lead and played it out a bit like as if he was zerg faceplanting gate units when he should have been using his economic advantage for a greater tech and higher tier unit advantage. If his first big push on max was delayed by about a minute, trading out some of the stalkers for a few more colossus, rush zealots, and a few phoenixes (mostly to remove the medivacs) with a tech upgrade he'd have crippled Ryung's army to the point a quick warp gate rush zealot on the follow up probably wins the game flat out. As the Protos upgrades are your bread and butter and of all the races and economic advantage is the weakest for the protoss as both Z and T can negate an economic advantage against protoss fairly quickly.

[@kogerugaming]

@@vampuricknight1 Exactly my thoughts, he kinda played it like he was a zerg, swarming the terran player with his overwhelming amount of resources converged into units until the terran is out of steam. If he was a bit more cautious, and just contained ryung, until building up a death ball, he could have win.

Good example of how OP Terran is.

[@Aymanzendo911]

EMPs are OP! I can't believe that we had this game for 10 years, and we still have a spell that can erase a 100 shield with one click over a radius. One Ghost can have the damage output of 16 L1 Marines assuming they both attack one target. Given that the EMP Radium can have easily 5 Toss Units. That means a single freaking EMP can have equal the damage of 80 L1 Marines against Toss units that have more than 100 Shield! Insane!

[@Kingofredeyes]

Ghost having EMP has literally been a thing since the original, and while it was good it was never some ZOMG OP nerf plox thing. Then again the original SC didn't have a select all army button for you to try and deathball with so armies tended to spread out a lot more naturally meaning AoE could be more easily mitigated. If AoE is killing you, spread your army out. Zest did his damnest to deathball roll over Ryung and Ryung made him pay for it.

[@Aymanzendo911]

@@Kingofredeyes bs, so many pro players get hit with an EMP that takes out the sheilds of a squadron of Stalkers or Zealots or whatever. My APM is around 100, if the pro player cannot escape it most of thr time, then I have no chance.

Out of all the pro players I think Zest is the most creative, in both winning and throwing his game.

Wow, I honestly thought Zest had it when his mineral/gas bank was WAAAAAY higher than Ryung's. He got too reckless with the trades. The barrack and command center placements by Ryung were also genius plays. it made it so hard for the 'toss ball to roll out.

[@MajinVegeto89]

This really demonstrates how frustrating it is for terran to play TvP. The toss cannon rushed, the terran held it as best as he possibly could, but even so the terran is unable to go punish the toss afterwards because he can just instantly transition into mass gateway units and then expand to FIVE BASES while the terran has to struggle to even get to 3 bases. Such good balance.

[@N0noy1989]

Still with the whining about Zerg? Can't just accept it's the players aren't the same level? Zest was the previous GSL champ and look what nonsense he did this time around? Got knocked out of the group stages. herO is supposed to be the next Protoss torchbearer, but if someone aggros him first, he crumbles. Zoun is the Protoss who got far in IEM Katowice 2022, and what did he do this GSL? Played dumb and got knocked out in the groups like Zest. Creator is improving, but still so far away from the top. For Terrans, there's Maru. You see the BS Maru is doing in GSL right now? Just throwing games that people start to suspect he's either wasted or intentionally losing. Cure is like Zest, capable of great things, also capable of great throws. Byun has his wrist in offline tournaments, which means he can never try for worlds again. Bunny kinda there kinda not. Ryung is doing great now, but I'm not sure if he can maintain that. And you're going to compare these guys to Dark and Rogue? BTW, Zest beat Dark at the finals last GSL. I don't see anyone complaining about balance. And then when Zest plays like ass, it's the Zerg's race fault? Come on. Protoss and Terran just don't have any god-tier players. Reynor practices vs 5 GMs in Archon mode. Serral is even above that, just playing with all Koreans of all races like they are babies in the last IEM Katowice. If Serral and Reynor transfer races, then that race will be the top. Simple as that. Reynor and Clem switched races before and Reynor's Terran trashed Clem's Zerg. It's the players not the race.

The broken power of emp + stimmed bio. Just love how they say Protoss is the broken race. 7 Protoss bases vs 3 terran bases and terran still wins. Even though Protoss had all the tech, you just can't stand up to that power as toss.

[@frostman9661]

I mean Zest did throw away a lot of stuff unnecessarily multiple times just trying to end it. But with that said, I agree.... Like the fact that you can literally just evaporate 1200 gas worth of archons in a couple emps is just stupid. That combined with stim gives terran massive power spikes for 11 seconds at a time while toss losses nearly half their hitpoints and takes at least 60 seconds to recover all their lost shields. It allows for huge swings even if terran is way behind if Toss makes even a small mistake.

[@frumpledpigskin]

You can, just need to know how to counter. Templar feedback the ghosts and/or use less shield dependent units like mass zealot, land disruptor shots, etc. I’m sure Zest knows that but he was just being lazy and tried to end it. but man what a hold by Terran here, never seen anything like it

[@frostman9661]

@@frumpledpigskin I would recommend trying to feedback 5-8 ghosts before one of the 5-8 send of at least 1-3 emps blanketing your army while simultaneously sending off disruptors. Even for pros that's fricken hard. Besides, most pros have high templars in warp prism to avoid emps which is even more micro intensive. Not saying it can't be done, but it's drastically harder to to pull off than sending out an emp.

[@MohammadAijaz5842]

Welcome back!

[@MattSipka]

I don’t get what’s so “genius” about this rush. Every Protoss cannon rushes and the most efficient way to do it now is to put your pylon and cannons in the enemy natural on the low ground and have an extra probe on high ground for vision and to eventually place a pylon. Even if it doesn’t win you the game, so long as you continue to build up at home and don’t overextend placing extra unnecessary structures you can still win having your opponent on the defense at least mentally. However at pro league levels, cannon rushes aren’t as effective since players know how expensive it is mineral wise, those cannons cost 150 each and one pylon plus two cannons is the same cost as a nexus. If you are building cannons you are most likely not building probes or units.

[@shane2095]

It’s just a title to get more views is all. Great video though

[@shapowlow]

you answered your question. this is GSL level. cannon rush is done at bronze level, every single one of these pros know how to beat a cannon rush, so making a cannon rush work in the top level is amazing in terms of timing and mind games. this game showed a failed cannon rush though, so SC2HL's title must be just to bait views but no, it's not a genius cannon rush. Zest overproduced cannons and failed to kill Ryung outright. His recovery was impressive though: he took high risk by mass expanding and it paid off, too bad he was probably tilted and lost every single engagement he should have won.

[@jeroenstolp9889]

@@shapowlow The video didn't show a failed cannon rush. The Protoss was wildly ahead after the early game. If a strategy places you in a very favoured position to win, it doesn't matter that it doesn't kill outright. The strategy was succesful. We're definitely agreed on him throwing most engagements later in the game though. As much as Ryung played amazingly, that was definitely Zests game to lose.

[@shapowlow]

@@jeroenstolp9889 actually i think it's more of ryung failing to punish Zest on a massively whiffed cannon rush. I think if he moved out with his cyclone instead of removing all cannons, he would have made it in time to catch Zest off guard, but this is just a speculation from a low master player haha. These guys are effing GSL players so I guess you're right. He probably pushed way far ahead because of the cannon rush.

[@jeroenstolp9889]

@@shapowlow I think this is more a matter of perspective. The way I see it, IF Ryung did punish the mistakes in the cannon rush, it would have been a failed rush. Since the mistakes were not punished, it didn't fail, and the rush placed him solidly ahead. You're honestly probably right on the cyclone call, but as another low master player here, I am not going to pretend like I would've played perfectly in that scenario.

[@bayasgalantsogtgerel3346]

Well what unit do you reckon can be the backbone of a Terran army in a TvP and fill shoes of ghosts? The core of a Protoss army lies in it’s splash damage where even if HT’s become obsolete do to EMP’s there are are still 2 other forms of AOE the Terrans still have to work around with from dodging disruptor shots to dealing with colossus’s with over committing against them so your core army still has enough fire power. Zest threw this game by just continuing to produce Carriers which were mostly ineffective, where he could have won by simply if he used those resources on a couple more colossus’s.

[@chinogambino9375]

@@bayasgalantsogtgerel3346 P need a unit that can actually win battles consistently instead of contextual bullshit units. We all know if T or Z was in the same economic position P is just dead. Even with face roll micro. Imagine if storm did all 80 damage instantly to Bio, that is ghosts to P gateway, T doesn't even need AOE to annihilate a Protoss ball in reality. In fact EMP used to do 100% shield damage with a 2.5 radius in WOL, the best T players still didn't make Ghosts every game. Now that they are forced to think about it we can see how insanely strong nullifying P units only advantage, shield HP actually is.

[@Kassplaylist]

Not to mention ghost counters every single zerg unit due to snipe.

[@bayasgalantsogtgerel3346]

@@chinogambino9375 The reason why Ghost’s weren’t used much in the pro scene in WOL was mostly due to the fact Terrans didn’t have to rely on it to win late game against Protoss and there wasn’t really that much need to tech into a gas heavy unit when the games were low eco. Terran is literally the best and most cost efficient race when it comes to defending positions, and even if I was economically in Zest’s position as a Zerg(I play zerg), if I made multiple poor engagements along with a army comp that literally was being already countered by the Terran, after 3 waves of course they Terran will stabilize and be on even footing. In TvT the defending player always has the advantage thus the same could be said about the same scenario in a TvT. In all 3 matchups you have to have had better engagements and more suitable army comp to deal with the turtling Terran. If Ghost’s are to be nerfed(I have no qualms about it, as it benefits Z’s and P’s) Terran need another alternative to beat Z’s and P’s in late game and they have no other unit that can directly fill the role of ghost’s unless the unit gets completely reworked.

[@AloneSoul666]

@@bayasgalantsogtgerel3346 If you cut the balls off both snipe for zerg and emp for protoss, and traded them to buff literally every unit terran has with 1 to 2 dmg, it'd still be a thousand times more fun to watch terran match-ups, and honest to god, even with EVERY OTHER UNIT BUFFED, it'd still probably be easier to take down than 20 fucking ghosts.

Psi storm just seems to tickle a large number of Terran units but not actually kill any. Meaning you lose out on supply and never actually decrease incoming damage.

Terran OP! Need to make widow mines single target imho, those just are imba AF imho.

Definitely a highlight. Pity it didn't pay off tho.

Ryung was not playing in real time in this match, in fact, he never seems to play in real time. He always makes his opponents look like they have started the match all by themself 10 minutes ago, then pause, and the Ryung joins the game. I am not sure what his problem is but there must be a really slow process somewhere in his whole gaming mind.

Build a shield battery, easy defense but well :( Not all Protoss like Parting

[@britishbeef4890]

clever title

[@katolink]

SCV rush is still the best strategy!!! Valhalaaaaaaaa!
