I love this! 4 infestor drop, 4 spines in the mineral line!!!!

Dang, you beat me to it.

Why not do this against the AI instead of against low mmr players? same effect and people can play their ladder games without getting griefed

​@@stefanfrank7426 This is a strategy game. It is also competitive. Consider chess. If you play vs a grandmaster will you complain that you are getting griefed or should you try to take the game, analyze it and see how you can improve. Of course you cannot win, but you can still get better in strategy, execution and overall learn things from a loss. I have been wanting to play vs Uthermal for a while. I would totally get obliterated, but it would at least be in a cool way :)

@@stefanfrank7426 dude calm down, it's just a game. Everyone can play it as they wishes as long as they are not hacking or cheating in any ways

@@stefanfrank7426 Low MMR? That's Diamond league, lol. They are much stronger than AI and most of them reached Masters in the past and play the game for many years.

@@Ayrinth but sc2 isnt chess, if the diamond leaguer goes to analyze the replay he will see that he lost because his opponent played 30.000 games more and as a result is two times as fast with their actions. thats not a factor in chess.

having a Protoss opponent on 2 bases whilst you already have an Infestor + neural is extremely unlikely. but denying their 4th or 5th this way is pretty much an option, yeah

does stealing the probe spend the opponents reasources aswell?

@@MrUSAFMatt it doesn't, the opp just loses this worker

"you mean base count?" "NO, the NEXUS count!"

That's called foreshadowing :)

if you built a nexus in their base could you recall to it?

@@trenthansen3950 if it was still standing, probably

​@@tromedlovdrolmai I guess my idea isn't that great because nydus and dropper lords are probably better

Use a mothership to cloak lurkers.

cloak is not passive anymore!

First thing I thought of too, Destiny was ahead of his time Kappa

Was looking for this exact comment

@@LetalisLatrodectuscan you guys believe Destiny went from a SC2 pro on 2013 to a global L debater on the internet , he’s been around for a while

BAWLERS!

We got it Kyle, we're winning the war!

You lose vision from neuraled units

@@ten8468 do you really? I had no idea

@@scottbruce7423 yeah I use that often to try and neural probes and build a nexus in the corner of their base without them even getting vision on it. If you distract them by attacking at the front at the same time and send the probe back in the middle of their mineral line after, it sometimes works depending on their level and how far ahead you are. You can then bring a chronoboosted probe back to your base using a droperlord.

This is so absurd I think there is a way to make it work.

This will rarely - if ever - work for multiple reasons. You cannot wall your ramp as zerg because there's no creep there, you'd need like 2 hatchs to wall the probe in. Walling your own ramp means no units or workers can leave your main and the opponent knows this, losing per default on any level higher than plat or diamond. The queen in the main will auto-attack the probe whenever she's not moving, you cannot even stop her from attacking without issuing move commands. Lastly, you'd need like 6 minutes or so to finally get neural out AND you will have to put up with the probe potentially attacking workers or even just your hatch or queen and killing them in the process and no amount of micro can prevent that, because you cannot kill the probe in order to stop it. So nice idea, but that won't work.

Opponent splits would be in slowmo.

Am surprised it even managed to get back unscathed when it literally run through the entire terran base.

I was thinking this exact thing

Funny.

dropperlords don't seem to be able to pick up probes

You stole my question! Lol

Nydus?

A: What's up, why are you feeling down today? B: I got cannon-rushed by a Zerg on ladder. A: You mean spine crawler rushed? B: Nope...

zerg cannon rush. now that’s content

He knows the probe was giving vision; he mentioned it in the vid :)

Sooo, did you have a night? This is the real question we should be asking.

I've been having a night for a long time now... @@RehPetr

Are you sure? Harstem did it a year ago is that what you're thinking about?

I’m torn about that with all the sc videos where the main moment is the thumbnail and title so you may know who wins and what the climax is. But it’s hard to say cause it’s better without provided you were going to watch it anyway. It may actually boost viewership though for people who weren’t necessarily going to just watch them all. It may be a necessary evil to advertise the video.

Agreed. I hate all these 'game the algorithm' tricks, in part because they make videos actively worse, and in part because there is enough stupid people who get tricked to make it worth it doing. Same thing with ads - I don't remember the last time when an ad influenced me to buy anything, and I actively try to avoid wasting my life watching them, yet it's one of the biggest industries in the world.

Skip it if you don’t like it. If it helps get more views and keeps those views longer that’s all that matters. He’ll have the metrics on the backend to make that determination. You really can just skip ahead and you won’t have anything spoiled. Making the $$ and keeping the videos flowing is what truly matters.

I like it, If you are new to SC I can see how it helps you understand whats going on draw you in. Plus he only spends a few seconds on it which is great

@@JA-in3hw This is also why I block thumbnails. :P

I tried this strategy a while back and it took me 10 games to win one. The reason is that overseers are actually very expensive - you just don't realize it when you only build one. But eventually I managed to defend a protoss push and then perma blocked the 2 robos while I was pushing back with roaches and wo immortals he couldn't defend.

@@ten8468 I feel certain uthermal could make this happen hehe

I remember Catz doing it in a pro tournament, don't remember against who it was

is everyone referencing that one tweet every time they say "tools"?

Or harstem with beating Grandmasters wth stupid stuff. Both good to get some ideas

They will be yours

also, I'm fairly certain you can produce structures on your own creep

@@johnsontommyg Nope, creep prevents any buildings other than zerg. Coop removed this altogether, you can place any buildings on creep in coop. In 2v2, T and Z are a pretty annoying combo on some maps because you cannot even land your buildings anymore after lifting them if your zerg partner creeped everything. And some maps make it nearly impossible not to creep everywhere if you want to move your queens or units properly.

No the game determines ownership of the building as it's placed neural on the scv would just make it attack them

You can’t load units effected by neural parasite into a transport, typically you can pull the probe a few times with a viper though.

​@@jacobolson5582Can Marc build at least one Vipers in his zerg challenge like how he can built one ravens on his terran ones?

No

In brood war with dark archon it gave you a new supply count, but I don't think that's the case now

@@chrisbyrd1349 Yeah, same supply cap. Would be cool to have -recall large hydra army to enemy behind wall -bunkers, just engage with them You can neural and use scans still I think ? Maybe even lift building in wall, eh ? :) Evil smurf-troll eh

Yeah when marc talked about getting an enemy drone it would just grant him another hatchery if he morphed into it instead of adding more supply. I'm curious if you can pick up a captured probe in an OL and transport?

You can't. @@melonfarmer5290

@@melonfarmer5290 Captured enemies can't be loaded into transports.
