12:50 the discovery of hold position lurkers changed terran vs protoss completely 😂

"I feel like when terran takes a 3rd base they lose" -Artosis

"You're gonna have a fire-bad time" - Scan, 2024

Scan played that game so well it was inspiring to watch. I feel so helpless sometimes against end-game defiler Zerg it's helpful to see someone seem to have all the answers like this.

BASED Firechads. Terranbros... we eatin good tonight 🍴😋🔥

In my opinion Artosis is the best esports commentator ever. The knowledge he has is incredible. He is able to explain absolutely everything.

18:27 longest production tab ever

"Tu tu tu tu tu tu tu." -Scan at Artosis's house, vocalizing his APM, telling us why it is important.

11:05 that is simultaneously peak toast and terrible, indeed

@11:05 Tasteless makes a guest appearance lol. Thanks so much for casting these games Artosis they've been awesome so far!

Scan is out of this world, very damn well played

What would a scan scan if a scan could scan wood

Wow Scan played that game almost flawlessly holyyy

Only this comment can repel SPOILERS of this magnetude!

Wuu, firebats, back-rank checkmatexDDD. Scan is a monster. So happy couz of him:)

i think the opening actually favors scan pretty heavily. not only did he kill 3 drones but yoon lost so much mining time from pulling so many drones for so long

Scan is a very good friend. I learned that from his room invasion years ago.

In those first few minutes, how big a factor is the lost mining time of all those drones that get pulled? Seems like it's a lot of minerals that don't get mined there, or does it matter due to larva number?

Falcon Paladin and Artosis uploaded their today's video at the exact same moment.

For years it was said that Restoration wasn't viable because of medic energy and APM. Why is it that only now is it starting to be used and considered going forward? What's changed?

Wake up babe, new CNSL just dropped

What a sick game from Scan. I'm learning so much just watching his games it's wonderful.

11:05 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Watching Artosis for a month now, I've come to the same conclusion as him: 5-5 upgrades on marines is worthless against zerg down 100 supply as long as zerg has 2 defilers with consume and dark swarm. You'd have to have omnipresent micro from that point on.

I've started to really enjoy the scrappiness of the Zerg, and how they can hold with like half the supply. So many matches where you see the T supply at 170 and the Z supply at 95 but somehow they're still holding.

Thanks for casting looking for more from this two

How did Scan not get into ASL this time? He’s so dominant and plays more modern games.

Thanks for the casts Arto. Scan! Hype!

That was such a good game. Hope we can see some of these guys in the next asl season

Been excited for this one!

As a low level terran player all of artosis casting about terran is so damn helpfull :). I think science vessel energy is a must get upgrade against zerg. Starting with 63 manna instead of 50 feels so damn safe

Would love to see some d-matrices on those fireboys vs dark swarm.

Artosis, i dont want to watch all of the games of this tournament, but interested in Scan, can u do something about naming the videos? also is there any idea to share replays?

Spoiler BUNKER

Note how Terran plays near perfect and continuous pressure past the 9min mark. Yet the game gets closed out by 20+ min, where are the quick moderately timely wins for T that Z can always get?!?

Firebathero's name was prophetic then

jesus christ look how much effort scan had to put to win this match and zerg keep being in game even after losing almost all encounters... plague and dark swarm op

I know this probably isn't even a factor at the higher levels of pro play(or any level really) but i feel like playing red makes the zerg plague better just cause its harder to notice at a glance.

FIRED UP

That game was intense. Scan clearly had more apm and an army. But even that, zerg was hard to kill will defiler.

Why doesn't zerg use burrow to protect their expensive defilers? Burrow a defiler with a small group of lings. Much harder to target for irradiate, imo. Burrow epic spell. Ask Kevin Bacon how powerful it is.

Ok so I've been gone for a couple months, but holy TOLEDO!!!!! There's GRAPHICS NOW?! Player portraits, some other info at the middle, cool animated triangle graphic thingies in the background. DUDE! This looks COOL! Just wanted to give feedback on it ASAP. Also, one more piece of feedback. Can we please have your face on SOME thumbnails? It doesn't have to be all the time, but seeing you go ":O" sometimes is funny.

Go Scan Go

How many scans would The Scan Man scan if The Scan Man could scan scans? TWO?!

The Great Firebat Army is real.

Hydra/Lurker/Defiler comp shown, instant round of almost completely firebats. Hydras do not hit firebats under dark swarm! it is a simple but very good plan!

Yellow zerg makes em look like bees lol. Doesnt help their stage 2 main building is called Hive.

Thumbnail guy giving me chills

artosis keeps saying that scan made it to an asl before. but what season? i don't recall scan ever playing in an asl

I been mixing in firebats for a while. Those and Sci vessels.

Firebats! Literal Chills!

I would like to see shields on firebats more.

SCAN SCAN SCAN SCAN SCAN SCAN SCAN

How many lurkers could scan scan if scan could scan lurkers?

GRANDE SCAN, GRANDE

The future is here

Startosis trolling us, he would never make weak unit like firebrat

bro you should bring in Nyoken to guest cast a couple of these games, nyoken artosis cast would be so dope

aww wanted to see zerg try to bust that bunker base.

I know im a noob, but dang, the skill between the ASL regulars and the wannabe's is stupid. Them regulars eating good

Scan good player tho! strong mindpower and twitchy fingers!

What is the point of flying the barrack back or building it forward in the first place

Why can't the Terran just transition into mass battle crusiers at the same time as he keeps the pressure up in games like these?

Scannnnn❤

10:55

buena partida

fucking love watching firebats kill zerg. soooo tasty

It’s crazy titling the video “the future” in like a 30 year old game

Scan's macro is just too sexy.

Hey, Artosis could you start putting the map name in the title?

Can someone explain why players continue to run their marines away even when zerglings are already on top of them and doing damage? Seems like a better idea to stop, fight, and get what kills you can, no?

love Scan games, than you Artoise

ggs

I'm very high on plague over dark swarm. Especially when I see the changed opinion on firebats that more than 2 is okay, more is good vs swarm. But plague it just a continual nightmare on targeted units, even BCs can only take 2 before they need repair/or restoration micro. Then I think plague as a spell for sieging over dark swarm, does really well vs bunker/turret chokes. Then I think u know, Nuke has same AoE as plague. As a tempo based play, nuke is a good alternative to idling the bioball while irradiate grinding lurkers, and still needing to bust the sunks. Why should a lurker egg at ramp cause such problems only to then still race up ramp taking massive damage, when 15s to call down nuke would clear a beach head for your bio to get up ramp en masse. Even if lurkers repositioned out of nuke range , it can't be worse than racing your units through the 1 lane meatgrinder (otherwise that would be the initial position). Canceling nuke and catching lurkers while repositioning is also possibility. it takes about 2.5 min to set up nuke as suggested above, can be done after Titan reactor, but I think it's worth delaying reactor 30 sec to get down covert ops, idea being a tempo play alternative to irradiate grinding, finish game before BC/tank transition needed. can always pop up and start physics lab if didn't workout, but I think 200/200 is worth bypassing the 1 lane meatgrinder, or blasting open a rallypoint nat choke clearing out all the invulnerable units protected by a dark swarm. If I were good enough to manage units all over the map, I probably wouldn't bother, but I think this could be worthwhile addition vs transitioning to unupgraded units, that will require higher resource and supply commitment to transition (Tanks and BCs), when problem could be resolved by safely breaching chokes with most of bioball. Of course drop play is also an alternative transition, but that's also a type of investment halting vessel production and drop force treated as disposable, nuke is cheaper throwaway that lets you use most of your army instead of a small detachment, also costs less effort with control group maintenance.

gg

Scan eliminated my boy Ruin, so he'd better win

Why is swarm a thing

😀

I see that "GG" isn't actually getting typed out in a lot of these games, is that going out of style or something?

Defilers broken. Blizz should patch up "consume". Consume breaking the game.

decent skill gap between these two

Too sad to have seen the best plague ever in a Yoon's poor game.

A video made by the guy who kept dying to ling floods 5 games in a row and simply refused to make firebats

My favourite videos of BW are the ones with units you don't usually see. Ghosts with nukes, firebats, queens, whatever. I just kinda stop watching when I see a mutaball, dark swarm, dragoons, afk with siege tanks..

Gay is the future

god dark swarm is such bull @!@#$. disgusting.

Unban cleverstarcraftguy

sc1 players seems to be so bad at controlling units. They waste so so much

Really bad Muta control compared to ASL Zergs, and really bad Caster flip-flopping: One minute he says twice they are about even after the initial exchange, then the next he says twice Yoon is slightly ahead. Bruh, how are you "slightly" ahead when Zerg is 90% of Terran's worker count, and there aren't any immediate threats? If this was Hero as Zerg against anyone (except maybe Rush) continuing the play from that position he would steamroll every game.

Dam defilers are so broken. I hate this unit so much.

you talk way too much
