Hey I'm one of the Terrans (Thor) in the first game... one thing I think people don't realize is just how difficult it is to adapt against a vastly superior player until you're in that situation. Yes I've dealt with reaper harassment before, but never against such perfect micro (and macro behind it too.) yes I've dealt with marine drops and tank pushes before, but never with such perfect movement. I think I'm a decent plat player (only started to play sc2 a few months ago,) but It really just goes to show on how different a level pro players are xD Uthermal made me feel (and look) like a much lower level player out there... had a ton of fun doing this though haha! For those wondering, yes we were in voice chat trying to coordinate our strategies, but he was simply too good!

I'm Vloxal from the first game, had a great time being obliterated after my horrible reaper micro. 10/10 would lose again

uThermal vs 3 platinum guys is indeed an insane challenge... for the platinum guys

I think Uthermals secret is to shout encouragement to each unit. THIS LIBERATOR IS DOING AMAZING. THIS SEIGE TANK IS REALLY GOOD TOO, oh look at this pack of marines this is going to be amazing. Very entertaining to watch GJ

it's crazy that you can overcome such a massive difference against players who sort of know what they're doing.

These out-numbered challenges are quickly becoming my favorite content.

19:05 "I feel like this is finally the kind of army I can push forward with" Has maxed out supply

What a show of force to mark your 100K subs on your main channel! The showmanship, commentary, and mental dexterity to outplay six opponents. Seriously, you deserve every single sub you get and I hope your channel continues to grow. GGWP!!!

How did he put three players on the back foot at once? Insane skill man

Mark, keep this up and it will eventually be, "Defeating 3 grand masters at once". Love your vids man.

I was like Damn, 47 minutes? They did pretty dang well for themselves! Oh, you crushed them twice Lolol

Great fun to watch that challenge! Thx a lot man

Congrats on 100k thermy, been here since 14k amazing so fast you have grown....

The problem these challengers keep running into is that they're playing like it's a 1v1. They keep playing into your strengths by allowing the early Reaper harass, the midgame drops, and suiciding into tank lines with ground units. I feel like a simple focus early game defense with one person quick teching into air superiority like Tempest/BC that can break tank lines would be a fairly simple but reliable strategy with this kind of numbers advantage.

"I've learned that platinum players all suck at something different." ~Marc about a month ago

Love these challenges where you go against several lower-skilled players!!

Thermy so good. I wouldn't mind seeing a 1v3 with diamonds though. I want to see what it takes to stop him!

imagine being the Zerg player in the 2nd game. "Why don't you just finish me, Thermie ~~!"

Def fun to watch. It really seems like if there was some planning and coordination the 3 plats should be able to hold. If there had been some static D (spines, cannons, bunkers) near the mineral lines then he would have had a hard time chipping the econ early. After that you could specialize with one Terran pursing pure air starting with vikings patrolling everywhere to stop drops and another focusing on tanks to start pushing in the ground slowly. The third player could either try to grab some cover for tanks or just pump money to either ground or air Terran. By splitting the army between air and ground you'd also get a good upgrade advantage. OFC you'd have to work to coordinate but with a tiny bit of practice I think it would be very hard to get enough damage done to the econs to keep it from spiraling out of control.

Cannot overstate how entertaining this was. Super well played, your best video yet

Two vs. ten would be super entertaining! Make that one happen.

Congrats to 100.000 subscribers, well deserved for the awesome content!

This is top tier content. Great job!

uThermal: INSANE CHALLENGE Also uThermal: does it twice 😳

The quality of your gameplay matches the quality of your commentary. Your videos are always really fun to watch, and these fan challenges are really cool. Keep it up, my dude!

That terran repeatedly muling the gold base in game 2 hurt my soul

Awesome content Champ!* Really enjoy watching!

Congratulations to 100k, i love your videos!

Digging this series! Please keep it up!

i used to play brood war and sc2 so much back in the day. I thought i was good (was master) but definitely not this good. Its insane how fast you are, very impressive to watch. Im enjoying it a lot! Just subscribed :)

He should try playing as 2 different races at the same time in a 2v2. I don't know if it's possible, but I can't think of anything that's actually a challenge to this man anymore.

damn, this reminds me of the old days of playing campaign missions.

Congrats on 100k subscribers!! Best SC2 content in the world. Thanks UThermal

Really fun to watch the multi-prong and multi-tasking here : )

Imagine if all 3 of them did a different one of your signiture cheese's. 1 does PF, 1 does thor drop, 1 does BC/Mines

Thanks for the great content. Perhaps it would be fun to see you team up with another (weaker) player(s - different races), the goal to win but with both players surviving. Maybe without discussing strategy first so that communication, resource sharing, army sharing - joint or independant defence, harass, adapting, scouting etc. would be variables to be considered. It would be great content and very instructional. I realize that this would make your solo-multi plays more difficult as adversaries would copy your style, but I imagine it could be fun and if anyone can do this well I believe it to be you. I've seen other pro players play some team games, but these games are often less interesting to watch than professional 1:1's as ultimately they often lack real communication skills or any deep strategy, mostly just combining some units and attacks. The fact that you are playing with a weaker team mate could add layers to this.

Love these challenges :)

Congrats on the 100k subs Marc! Keep up the good content!

This is fantastic content. Anything goes, no mercy, fight for your life. Brilliant!

Awesome video from uthermal! Congrats for 100k subs 🎉🎉🎉

Most fun series to watch for me, cant wait for another episode

2v10 sounds amazing, I definitely wanna see that

Incredible. Great work.

Great games! Respect for the opponents as well! Must be difficult to play against Thermy.

100K buddy 💪, congratulations 🎈🎉🎊, NZL

CONGRATULATIONS ON 100k!! 🎉🎉😊🎉

Bro really opened the video with "F*ck around and find out" calling everyone out 🤣

Love this series. Thermy sees this , hard challenge... sure. Let's go again. Hahaha it's a true joy to see.

That was great to watch, and I hope the Plat's gained some insight from those replays. Maybe you could do a mini lesson after to teach all of us wood league plebs what they 'could have tried' in those situations? Especially the reaction to mid game.

You had me a triple cheese. Digging in now for what I'm sure will be a banger.

kind of makes me realise how OP u_thermal is against anyone under GM on the ladder in the other challenges. Like he can win just with reapers against 3 diamonds at once...

Love these. I'd really want to see some where you lose them too. Just to keep it a bit more suspenseful

5:00 "Oh wait... we forced him to make 10 reapers... maybe that's not what we wanted" XD lol especially when you lose 5 of yours for free!

That reaper beginning looked so effortless and smooth 😲 I figured someone would BC rush but that never came. These guys should at least agree on a few things before the game starts 😆

Entertainment worthy of a subscription!!! Absolute pro!! Wow!!

This is bringing back memories, I have not seen good SC2 content since bronze league heroes.

rofl, 28:03 i really expected utherm to say 'come at me bro'

Damn fine work mah man!

Man, I need a replay of that discord call between those 3 players.

Have a nice vacation and get well soon :)

gratz on 100K ! Finally

These challenges are by far my new favourite!

Thank you for uploading every day, I watch them all :)

“Not the ovies man” 😂 Because it was his only job left.

that protoss in the 2nd game got u with some 200 iq storms Marc

Thermy and reapers is really a match made in heaven.

13:43 LOL 'im gonna split' is american slang for 'i'm gonna leave', which is exactly what they just did with the medivac. You meant 'split' as in micro.

What would be really cool for your Tournament Challenges would be if you had a wheel of a bunch of different challenges and you spin it to pick a new challenge for each match

i can imagine the team chat, ok 2 guys def the early rush and 2 guys on bcs, then the 5 proxy baracs die and everything rolls over

Great Games uthermal!!!

Congrats on 100k!

Oh no, Uthermal is imba.

Congrats on 100k bud!

That moment in game 2 when the zerg player wrote 'ummm...' and minutes later you realize it's probably because the other 2 stopped giving him minerals. I feel for him because it's not like uThermal was targeting him 1v1 like he would in premier tournaments.

Very fun stuff!

INSANE because it’s also written in the video title to emphasise that just like the other videos

Banger episode!!! 🔥🔥🔥

i jump ahead and watch in 2x speed often, but these I watched fully. Do more :)

This was a blast!

Congrats on 100k :D

The skill ceiling is so high in this game its crazy, made 3 mid tier elos look like bronze league noobs LOL. Good effort guys ❤

You make me dizzy, you move So dang fast!

CONGRATS ON YOUR 100K KZfaq PLAY BUTTON 😍😍😍😍😍😍

Wait I thought you were the narrator playing starraft while talking is insanely impressive

I've seen a few of these games now but I've learned that against him you need cannons/spines in your mineral line as fast as possible lol 😂😂

this was awesome

I love your vibe man you are amazing

you should do 1v4 in archon mode. pig did it and turned out to be a banger. love the video

That Reaper Harass is ridiculous. I have no idea how you pull it off.

You know what would be fun is if you had cams on the other guys and we got to see their discussion, etc as you were playing the game, lol.

more of these challenges please Thermy

Where is Uthermal? I look everyday for more videos but nothing.

I hope your feeling better Uthermal! Missing my dose of penguin bros.

The number 1 unit that gives players below pro level a hard time is tanks IMO, and uThermal seems to understand that quite well. Obviously these games emphasize how hard tanks can be without being countered. Many units can be dealt with by using un-optimal units with decent enough success, but sieged up tanks must be countered, which really stresses a player's multitasking/apm. uThermal's opponents played well and I commend them for lasting as long as they were able. I am always surprised to see how much better players in gold through diamond are than they used to be years ago.

9:40 insane move

I want to do one of these!!!! Sounds like some great fun!

that poor zerg must have pissed in your cereal or something for you to brutalise them so.

Congrats on 100k

From beginning of video More like golds I get annihilated by in my plat 3 league have a profile summary of diamond leagues 😭 it was a rough stretch yesterday. Excited to watch! Demoralize us plats

doing this while also commenting the whole time is crazy
