14:00 Damn bro, knowing when to snipe an observer is way beyond my league. Im sure the protoss guy was surprised by it too

Even though there were several suggestion for other episodes, I thought about two challenges for you, uthermal. Inspired by the Ghost to GM, you could make an episode called like "uthermal covert ops" where you only build cloaked units (banshee, widow mine, ghost) and build hidden bases. The enemy won't even know what is happening. ;-) The second idea, just for fun, you could make an episode where you only build units that shoot fire (hellion/hellbats, nukes, liberators, battlecruisers) to make a convincing stand for your name ^^

THANKS FOR DAILY VIDEOS UTHERMY

Thanks for daily videos. On Stargazers i build the third right below those back minerals and then just fly it over.

You are what keeps SC2 alive for me

I love this specific challenge more than all the others ones you’ve done. The number of variations makes it so much more fun.

If you're gonna do Marines you gotta do marines in all their glory. Stim, shield and medivacs.

I'm NA...Our man Thermy is on NA for this...I've been killing my hands playing so many games in hopes that I'd bump into him before his MMR got too high for us to versus on the ladder. Unfortunately, that did not happen :( Maybe next challenge! Either that, or I need to get "maor gud" faster lol.

Observer whisperer over here like “I feel like it’s the right time for an observer” like goddamn bro how did you know?! Lol

It's refreshing to see someone type GG WP for once on these challenges. Also, how would you feel about doing a "hidden base/fake cheese" challenge, uThermal? In spirit of the Bongcloud challenge, I would love it if you were to have a hidden 2nd base and confuse your opponent into thinking you were doing a cheese/all-in of some sort! Especially with how good you are at reading your opponents I would love to see if you could really sell the cheese and have them freak out and take advantage of that economically or however you choose.

That protoss player is truly a polite man of culture, very nice

Really loving this series so far, your marine splits against siege tanks were amazing. I'm excited to see all the ways you use medivacs, marines and bunkers for this series.

You're putting out the absolute best SC2 content around right now! Thanks for the entertaining and educational videos!

31:32 - For a second there, I thought you were going to follow up your all-in with the bongcloud :D

This Guerrilla Terran style is an absolute blast, I loved that TVP game!

Love to watch and listen to all your experience and the details you know and use to your advantage! Timings, builds, how to react to different situations,.. AND still having fun enjoying your own challenges so it#s not too easy for you.. just insane! :D

Mass turrets defensively with crazy amounts of run by's for Colossus in TvP? Love all of your series. Thanks for so much great content! Edit: Turret Range would be especially potent against mass Robo.

I love your content and i want more challenges like this one! Keep up the good work!

I'm enjoying watching this so much. I haven't played SC2 competitive for years but watching you work within the constraints and finding a build that works, I love it. I miss doing that and finding your own way. I don't have the time but can live by proxy though your video hahaha!

After watching many of these videos I'm impressed on the ability to play at that level and add some enthusiastic commentary in too. Love watching the content.

This is such a great show! It's amazing to have a chance to get to know a pretty high level pro, especially one with such good communication skills. I like the trappings, the little intro animation, the music, etc., and I like the way the commentary is so clean, cheerful and up beat. Even when it's negative it's not really, I mean, it's not actually vitriolic or acrimonious. I don't mind when my 11 year old comes in while I'm watching this, because the role modelling being presented is good. I feel like even on the rare occasion when uThermal actually sneers at someone or something, it just doesn't have the same acridity that a lot of content creators have. I think to some extent acrimony sells? Or draws attention, anyway? So that might be why so many content creators are so big on it. It's so nice to find one who isn't.

Just subbed today and man oh man I love your stuff.

I was going to suggest in base proxies for this challenge, but you were ahead of me and already had some in the first episode. But I am requesting more of that good stuff. These maps have some huge main bases, so I think the map makers agree: hidden in-base bunkers, barracks, planataries.

You are literally 75% of what I watch on KZfaq now. You're so good at commentating and playing. I don't know anyone as talented at SC2 as you.

loving this series so far!

man uThermal these videos are always great!

I don't play starcraft or anything but I just want to say I really like your videos. I started watching about 3 days ago. You are a really cool person and it makes for entertaining content.

Thanks for the great content. You're the man

18:25 - "If he didn't attack me" should be "If he hadn't attacked me". This is an example of the third conditional.

Love the Bit By Bit play at the end.

love the POV aftergame scenes if the opponent had a "oh S"hit"!!!" moment :)

GG that was fun to watch!

Wow that observer snipe was insane

The very first opponent you were playing looks like he was playing the 2 base muta build that PiG introduced as one of the builds in his zerg B2GM

Enjoying this new challenge. Thank you.

Hey Thermy, thanks for keeping me sane through the last year of law school! I actually got back into Starcraft after quitting 11 years ago, and even switched to Terran in part because of you (used to be a Protoss player). Really appreciate how you're both so skilled and also humble and humorous. For a future challenge, I'd really love to see Mass Battlecruisers or Mass Thors to Grandmaster (or better yet, Mass BCs/Thors to Grandmaster)! Maybe I'm unable to comprehend the nuances, but it seems very bizarre to me that Terran's T3 units don't seem to be where their late game fighting power lies. Would be really cool to see someone going late game and wining with just the two of them, especially when they each seem to have lots of well-known counters. It would be amazing to see a 200/200 army of T3 units looming over an enemy base. I also wonder if there's some synergy between BCs and Thors, since Thors have the range to zone off air units that might threaten the BCs, while BCs shred light ground units that counter Thors. Possible format: Allowed 1 Reaper, 2 tanks and as many marines as needed for defence, but have to go pure BCs/Thors for attacking or once it's economically viable. You can also have a few Ravens for detection and the synergy between Anti-Armour missile and BCs' fast attack speed, and some medivacs for Thor drops. Thanks again, and keep up the good work!

Great content!

I love how you're playing mass marine into colossus-archon and you're like "we're suddenly in a very winnable position".

Really well played!

when you're so good that you can fight off colossi with marines

haha that mining the minerals to hit from the back was great. i was thinking of a big guns challenge for you uthermal, where you only use units that can hit very hard individually, like mines, siege tanks, libs, thors, BCs (yamato), somewhat the opposite of mass marines xD

Pro players watching uthermal youtube posts and challenges: right that down, right that down!

OMG, marine hold versus colosus was fantastic!)

13:54 I'm sure the protoss is like fuck I'm going vs a map hacker.

Cant wait for the real episodes, multiprong medivac drops, fast upgrades, etc

Damn I'm early this time. But I gotta go to work so I'll watch it later.

30:42 To him it looks like I'm scared, he just thinks "he cancelled his CC , he's sh!tting in his main base" 🤣 Didn't think you looked THAT scared 😅 Love the videos ❤️

Purple is the best color. I didn't even realize units are highlighted behind buildings until you switched to purple last episode, That neon glow is dope. The purple, dark grey, light grey buildings are nice, royal af. (i don't play sc2 (sc1 long time ago), but you make me want to play)

dude the marine vs colossus match was insane

That was bonkers. Ggwp

Props to BangDingOw for keeping that meme alive

Never played sc2 but i am enjoying watching your skills. Impressive!

Great videos man! Would love to see some build with many battle cruisers

Uthermal, you can name your only marine style automaton split style xD Your split vs tanks and colossus is awesome

15:32 Observer flying over top gas :D

Observer snipe was incredible, damn!

ahoi, love your channel, attitude, humor n playstyle - i follow your channel since u got about 15 k subs .....and holy fuk how fast you got now 40 k , almost 10k in just some weeks , amazing to see your viewership grows - so happy to see u reach more people with your great show, u great , please allow yourself also some breaks n freetime for other stuff to enjoy n relax , your upload level seems almost stressful ??

WOL VIBES LOVED THAT COLOSSUS MATCH

Mass marines vs. colossi. You're insane, man.

Uthermal over here.... Droppin The Thunder.. and Purging Heretics :D

Thank God. Got notification. I don't get notified before. Until I check channel. Same play marine rush with bunker in. Can you try build bass in the opponents bass 😂 Change color into teal 👍🏼

Hey Marc, you know MARINE TELEPORTATION? You just make a lot of bunkers 1 space of distance each other, and spam marines to the first bunkers and keep clicking to unload marines. Each bunker must be pointed to the next one, and they must be build inline from your base to the enemy bases. Every marine that spaw will eb instantly at the oponnent base as soon u keep clicking to unload with all bunkers .

That observer prediction was genius

This zerg player couldn't believe their eyes, when ten thousand marines could fly, straight into their main when they're asleep.

Don’t think I’ve ever clicked faster on a video on youtube…and ive had this youtube account for YEARS. i see Thermy and i click

anohter amazing video!

On stargazers when you take the pocket expo, build the cc next to the minerals blocking the expo and have the scv mine it while you morph the orbital. I'm pretty sure it's more efficient than sending the scv before and building the cc in the center.

Omg, I'm scared by the end of the challenges we get uThermal-Skill Mixed with Florencio tactics 😳

13:55 wow that observer snipe!

Random fun fact: the first opponents username is a reference to a news report prank involving an Asian airline crash. Pranksters gave a news channel false information naming the pilots "Sum Ting Wong" (somethings wrong) "Wi Tu Lo" (we're too low) "Ho Lee Fuk" (holy fuck) "Bang Ding Ow" (crash noises). There's videos of the news reporters listing these false names for Television, LOL!

wicked sick!!!

Insane skills!!!

The split against those tanks were neat.

Impressive. There are no "ex-doctors", "ex-terrans", "ex-scientiststs". You made it look so easy.. But, as a former gm, I understand that monobattles are hard. Fun to watch, tough to execute. Glhf. Thank you for the skill, shown to us.

That first game was disgusting lol, keep up the good work.

In the early days Tharson played a Game with Marine, Medivacs and Battlecruisers against a Zerg, that went Baneling Queen Corrupter and pulled it off. That was one of the very few Builds I tried that actually worked against my friends (I am super bad, play only for fun but that build was very funny)

another challenge idea: apm limited challenge! see how far you can get while having your apm as low as possible. this is also an excercise in making every keystroke count!

the colossus has entered the game

I would love to see an IODIS submission by you uThermal haha

31:28 BITbyBIT Prime would be SO proud of you.

yey new vid

The purple terran stuff looks so good

I have a challenge idea. Seige Terran to Grand Master. Seige tank, Widow mine, Liberators.

Wow this episode was very very cool brother... And marines are absolutely insane, best Terran unit besides ghost and best basic unit of all races hands down. I feel we should start sending some petitions over to Harmsten for his "Is it Imba or do I suck?" section. By the way, you Uthermal, Harmsten, Lowko... What is with you Dutch guys and SC2 KZfaq content? Why are the Netherlands producing so many awesome YT creators of SC2?

Therm "since i cant make hellions hold a baneboost wold be very difficult." Me Who never make hellions against zerg. "Oh... thats answer a lot..."

Try some bunker sub challenge. Make all bunker upgrades, fill the map with bunkers, contain him with bunkers, and you're only allowed to win with marines shooting from bunkers - aka you can only shoot bases from bunkers

You have to try my 5head marine strat, Marc. 2/1/1 with only combat shields and medivacs. Feels like you have protoss units with a warp prism.

The ability to first recognize and then take advantage of the small mistakes and/or opportunities in games is what makes you one of the top-most players. imho anyway. =)

Beating Colossus with marine? That's pure skill to pull it off!

Gonna recommend one thing, thank me later: have some nice hot tea with honey and ginger to clear your vocal cords. Most people do not realize how intense it is sometimes to speak for long periods of time.

Marine is a fun unit to use, when i do co-op i always go raynor for dat sweet sweet rapid recruitment and orbital drop pods.

thanks for adding episode numbers, and again thank you for not including your keyboard noises.

I like this purple for the Marine challenge. I think you should stick with it.

gefeliciteerd met 40k subscribers makker

addition, i very much like you and became a fan of yours , i always like to know a bit from an artist , so im also very interested in you as person , so im very grateful for kinda Q n A sometime or story from ur life , like why u are in mexiko and that u retire from pro tournements and so on , its nice to know a bit the person behind these great challenges, so appriciate other stuff in the commentary beyond the game =)

Наверное, у юТермала марики на столько суровые, что он их сам побаивается)

oh man uthermal was a maplestory chad? now i wonder what class he played

13:51 wow, lol

Man, I would've loved to see the last ditch fight of that protoss player.

This is how I like to play the game, just get good at rushing marines and do it in every-single-match. Win or lose it does not matter, I play to relax and not to compete.
