  • I've barely played SCII since I bought it shortly after release but I've watched a number of PsY's casts. What I don't understand is why he handles Colossi the way he does. "He's got nine Colossi, NINE Colossi!" - why doesn't he just get Corruptors and roflstomp them? Why aren't Zerg high-level players using them?

  • He had that collossus attack that immortal on purpose so he could kill that creep tumor with the splash.... thumbs up, yo :D

  • Sure you look like a tool, but for all the right reasons. Spanishiwa is pretty damned amazing.

  • Actually Ultras would work great in this situation Spanishiwa had no ground force to defend his collosus

  • @MESHASMGUD He had void rays though, which deal 20 % more damage versus massive :'[

  • 13:55 u got an OVERSEER and ure afraid of halucination?

  • Is there a way for me to get this replay? I want to watch it from Spanishiwa's perspective :)

  • psy your a funny mother fucker.

  • Ling muta agenst this DUH XP

  • How did he know the creep tumor was right there under the immortal?

  • @palenshus he saw it finish

  • killing the greater spire won the game

  • Psy, you need to mass roaches and corruptors after you took out the ground. You had alot of reasources and mass corruptors would have taken out those collosus. At any moment, you could then morph them into broodlords.

  • only 7 dislikes??? holy dildo

  • I think ultra ling woulda prove better/cost effective in that first big engangement then ur hydra/roach army. ultras are nice against sentry hoarding toss's lg

  • you have almost 4k likes... where is the zvz?

  • sry PsY, but u look like a serious tool

  • what are those supply depots doing at the base of the ramp???

  • colossi....... good unit, good unit. 

  • Wait why do lots of maps have supply depots at the bottom of the ramp?

  • Corruptors basicly suck vs voids, but when he only had about 5 of them it could have worked...

  • Now you have to do three ZvZ ! :DD

  • killing the greater spire to cancel the best counter, mass corruptors... that's inside knowledge, he's thinking as a zerg while playing toss, :D

  • spanish plays toss like a zerg player. just beautiful.

  • Very creative protoss play.

  • I hope Spanishiwa wont change to Protoss, Swarm needs him!!!

  • @madarHR he was maxed so couldnt do much could have slammed up some spores though

  • Damn, Spanishiwa just put some Protoss players to shame...

  • Comment removed

  • why didnt you just rebuild the spire? you had 1k minerals and 1.5k gas

  • @iSmexx exactly

    

  • "i just dont have it in me"

    oo00h..

  • spanishiwa how could u betray ur zerg homeboys 

  • well that was truly an invincible army of colossi e voids

  • Spanishiwa is going to revolutionize the way all the races play the game.

  • Dude ultras i perfect against the collosi and mutas because void rays are weak against them study starcraft a little more psy.

  • anyone else hear the police near the end?

  • Does anyone else notice the supply depots? Is this a secret 1v1v1?

  • @qwcaster It's because its the MLG version of the map, they out those supply depots there so that there isn't any lame cheese happening at the front of the ramp.

  • Atleast i have chicken! Leeeeroy jenkins quote :D

  • lol this is funny,

  • Spanishiwa's Protoss is pretty terrible, he got supply blocked a lot at the start... Still much better then anything I can do tho.

  • Comment removed

  • Psy, 19mins in you said they should've been corruptors instead of infestor. But he killed ur spire =(

    Also i think in term of voidray stalkers collosus deathball, I think roach hydra corruptors works fine. Except instead of Roach + Hydra + corruptor, u would have to send roach corruptor 200/200 in first

    use corruptor to kill all collosus while roaches are tanking

    as corruptor die off, reinforce with hydras

    eventually u will send in an army full of roach hydra into stalkers vr.

  • @5:38, psy is so gosu that he gets a hive w/o the lair. dat baller!

  • Anti-spoiler: Like the video immediately and it will hide the top rated comments too. I've seen so many spoilers this actually is a good advice!

  • Good play by spanishiwa, dat kid.

  • rofl spanishiwa scrwewed up his chronoboost at the start

  • Hey Psy can we get another replay pack I really enjoy those thank you and keep making awesome videos

  • Dem throat muscles, Psy. They're a bitch to use.

  • he atkd his immortal to kill ur creep tumor

  • Yep, complete tool.

  • wow, maybe i should forget how to macro, and then i'll start beating zergs too!

  • 4-gasm :D:D

  • what, just 1,000? should have asked for more TBH

  • I dont understand

  • omg ive been waiting for this

    

  • ggggggggggggg

  • Why didn't you just remake spire when he began attacking it?

  • and nice creep spread..

  • span is a good troll o.o

    im gonna try the air units thing :|

  • @yvald1 3k thumbs up, zvz bo3

  • how the hell did you lose this game...

  • damn, I thought u had him. Voids SUX! I understand Psy, you let him win. I ain't mad at you, lol. They need to make zerg 200/200 better, man. Great video! GG!!!!

  • Genius immortal play to kill the creep tumor!

  • Psy, you should send this to Artosis and IdrA for their next imbalanced episode. Kidding :p

  • haha, epic game. you're not only a cool commentator, but you also pull off awesome games. keep it coming!

  • Attacking his own immortal was absolutely brilliant. He was using splash damage to kill the invisible creep tumors.

  • Muscles of your stomach? Psy, are you burp-talking on your commentaries??!

  • The first thing i did when i saw this was immiedieatly subscribe, like, and favorite

  • Mass infestor against a death ball. That would have worked if you just went mass fungal and kiting.

  • @qwertyzz7 colossus out range fungal

  • To use the immortal to mark the creep tumor and kill it with the colossussplash dmg is tbh fucking great. You dont even see this off main protoss player

  • @Bruni101 most protoss have 1 or 2 observers out when they have already colossi and immortal tech :) so normally no need to do it that way ;)

  • I bet Spanishiwa could make terran interesting if he played a little. (yeah, even terran) :D

  • @Aenulindale mass reapers and mass ravens? like the live 4v4 with Husky and Ahnaris?

  • @wharfreek I didn't watch that :s but he makes protoss even more interesting than they already are, so I suppose he could make terran bearable to watch (since they are normally pretty boring turtles or pesky mmm players)

  • i didnt know you're in Vile Psy. since when?

  • @bongbongbong888 he's been in vile longer than spanishiwa

  • that creep spread is too good

  • orgasmic creep spread :3

  • Comment removed

  • note to self: make another spire... got it :)

  • THAT was the most creative protoss playing i have ever seen.

    awesomeness.

  • entertaining.

    fun cast!

  • he wuz atacking his immortal to kill creep i think LOL

  • at 11:34 spanishiwa attacked the immortal to kill the creep tumor he saw, it wasn't an accident

  • this felt like a tutorial/forceVid.. but hey, still good :)

  • you better step up your game Psy for the zvz...

  • Do live casts 2v2 with him like husky!!!

  • 11:18 The Warp Prism's shadow on creep looks like a spider. I think Karrigan designed the warp prism :D

  • Spanishiwa need to switch to protoss, Im tired of feeling suck all the time playing as toss after watching his game

  • He placed the Immortal over the creep tumor so he could attack his Immortal and kill the creep tumor even though he couldn't see it.

  • Comment removed

  • you could have got another spire. :S

  • Aaaaaand....Idra didn't gg out cause its protoss...

  • @Kenniej

    wtf

  • wow, 2825 to 5, i have actually never seen such an awesome ratio before

    ...gj psy

  • He was attacking his immortal in order to kill your creep tumor with the splash, pretty beast move imo.

  • @RGsStarcraft I think it's a bug. Bliz either needs to 1. Not able to splash enemy units by attacking own units or 2. Make colosi deal friendly splash damage.

  • @11SixGaming lol. Then make storm not hurt your own units just like fungal growth...

  • Never saw Hallucinate used so...effectively

  • yes leeroy jenkins reference

  • Spanishiwa=OP

  • HAMMERING MY GG BUTTON SOOOO HARD

  • Gg wp both players.  Contaminate and hallucinate 2 under used abilities imo.

  • Spectacular use of hallucination by Spanishiwa!

  • theres a supply depot at 6:13!!!!!!!

  • @BZhubb808 its the mlg version of the map

  • @BZhubb808 ya its on all GSL maps to prevent blockoffs from protoss.

  • 2714 likes....so wheres the vid

  • I'm agree with your conclusions. You have a lack of aggressiveness and the hallucinations from Spanishiwa were superb.

    Well played anyway.

  • HAHA 23:50 at least i have chicken what a nerdy insider (lerrroooooy jeeeeeeeeenkiiins.!) :D

  • This is real nice, but would be lots more awesome if it would have been a live cast from your PoV with all the Skype banter

  • Nice game. If you guys are looking for additional SC2 content please take a moment to visit my channel if you're not busy! I'm always looking for ways to better myself as a caster and I would love your feedback. Thanks ^^

  • He's doing the husky way of a game.

  • Comment removed

  • really nice

    

  • Would mutas be a better response against that late game deathball than pure corruptor? It's not like the colossi can do anything and mutas dont take the extra damage from voids.

  • @aquablade Mass mutas is a very good counter to Colossus+Void, because without Phoenix or mass stalkers Toss can't really stop it. The issue is that it is very hard to tech switch INTO mutas lategame. Mutas are only good in large amounts, and are very gas intensive. To go Mutas in a number that does anything, you have to be committed., So abruptly getting mutas is difficult, because in general you build up muta numbers all game steadily, not losing mutas until you have enough,

  • i think spanish is just too good :P

  • ... OK Everyone.. we get it about the immortal and the creep tumor.

  • Spanish stands for Spain? Does Michael love poor countries in the break of bankruptcy?

  • @CharlesOneOfAustria spanish stand for spanish. period

  • @CharlesOneOfAustria I could almost feel a bit of humour in this, if its not, i just wanted to tell you have a good day good sir. You need someone to tell you "I love you" i think. Search for it.

  • @Ytofmayachev Thank you kind sir. I love you too. Nonetheless, I'm still curious about his name... I'm from Spain you know...

  • @CharlesOneOfAustria spanish is short for spanishiwa which he thought was a play off of conichiwa. so no, spanishiwa has nothing to do with spain or spanish

  • @CrustyOatmeal "Its Span - kneee- shee- waa. A mix between spanish and konichiwa" ... I've found this on a forum post... any thoughts?

  • @CharlesOneOfAustria i heard on a husky spanishiwa co cast that it was a play off of conichiwa but it may have been what you were saying as well

  • Cant you controll suply depos with infestor neural thingy to?

  • @MikkelVG only units not buildings.

  • @MikkelVG Thats a shame, bye bye strat that needs a neutral depo at your ramp

  • over 2k thumbs up...........

  • wouldn't you love a big 1-a army. nerf toss.

  • why is there a suply depo in the close to the protos base?

  • Psy it's too bad you were playing "scared"(basically like a pussy) since spanishiwa is known to be a high level player. For e.g. once you had your 4 lings out with speed on the way, and with the overlord noting that there was no zealot being made you should have run your lings to his base getting free scouting/picking off probes plus dividing his attention from blocking his ramp possibly allowing for a quick victory

    That aside, love the casts.

  • @bbsggnore By the time his lings finished killing the pylon and cybernetics core block, Spanishiwa had a zealot out. That might have worked if he'd sent his lings immediately, but then he wouldn't have been able to expand, so he would have had to do an INSANE amount of damage with those four lings to make it worthwhile. I doubt Spanishiwa, being as good a player as he is, would lose more than a couple of probes to a ling attack, or forget to wall up.

  • spanishiwa is soooooooooooooooooooooo creative!!! god he uses the splash of the colossi on his own immortal to kill creep tumors without observers

  • @yvald1 a "lull", not "lawl"

  • lazers noob pew pew

  • he didn't turn the gateways into warp gates because he was just making sentries which build faster in a gateway then they do being warped in.

  • @buddha551

    Check your info again. Sentries has the same cooldown (37s) on warpgate than on gateways. However, the difference is the 5 sec that it takes to warp in the sentry. This doesn't make any difference as the cooldown on the warpgate start immediately after the unit starts warping.

    i.e. the cooldown would be already at 32s when the sentry is done warping.

    There are no advantages with using gateways, blizzard wants you to use warpgates at all times.

  • Liked and Favorite.

  • This is the epitome of ZvP. I just sent my toss friend this who claims that z is OP.... Lulz GG

  • spanish got crushed by kiwikaki yesterday when he was streaming by this very same strategy (and actually same map) and he was kinda upset because he just didn't know what to do against it... so i guess now he enjoyed it so bad =) switch to toss spanish! it's the only race!!

  • spanishiwa plays like a GOD with zerg, imagen his skills with the OP protoss :O

    thats just cheating xD

  • Send this to husky and HDstarcraft :) I want to see how they react aswell :D

  • i come back here just to hear the damn 'GeeeGeee' jingle :))

  • I saw this live, it was so funny hearing their commentary.

    DAMN I wanna be on vile. Hanging out with these guys would be so cool.

  • @zeyn10 It's the MLG version of Shattered Temple, it's there to avoid blockage at the main door.

  • oh hell, why have i never thought of hallucinated air units?!

    *furiously takes down notes*

  • @Psystarcraft LOL SIRENS ARE GOING OFF IN THE BACKGROUND 23:30 PSY IS YOUR HOUSE ON FIRE?

  • biggest mistake was not filling mid with spines when you had 4k. you could have also tryed to doom drop

  • @stephinfection yeah that IdrA style never works against toss... except everytime he wins with it

    And psy he attacked the immortal cause the Colo splash hits the tumors, terran due the same thing with helion/maurder

  • so it on the stream so freaking epic!

  • was that a supply depot infront of psys base? wtf?

  • can you contaminate warping in buildings? if yes then psy couldve delayed that robotics bay way too much

  • Holy shit dude, SPEND YOUR MONEY!!!

    You had 193 food worth of units against his 163 with almost 3300/1400 monies in the bank, use your excess bank and throw down some forward Nydus heads and execute a 300food push like the swarm was intended to be played and you wouldn't have lost.

  • @cyncmaster150 He was waiting for broodlords, and harassing wouldn't have worked at all against blink stalkers and colossi.

  • @sodasodahero

    Yeah, I know. I was suggesting that his choice to wait for broodlords was a blunder on his part. Because, by waiting for broodlords he allowed his opponent to mass a powerful army. (Which he said several times in the video that he did NOT want to happen).

    So, I was suggesting that he engage with his almost maxed army and spend his large amounts of money to reinforce the push, since zerg is good at replenishing your army quickly.

  • Spanish has said his ZvZ is his worst matchup, so he tries PvZ and look, he pulls a win out of his arse with the most pumped unit combo ever.... but it's PsY's fault for not trying any Nydus or drops, or anything tricky to worker harass...

    He just went the boring IdrA style, mass roach/hydra, and try to brute force your way in, which will NEVER work against Protoss, because Forcefield is IMBA, Colossi are OP once you get thermal and upgrades,

    Still though, great game. Thanks PsY!

  • 1.000 thumbs up on this video and you'll do a ZvZ with Spanish?

    Well...

    You got 2.000 thumbs up so far.

    That means... 2 ZvZ's? :D

  • OMG no reason why Psy should have lost >.< Shoulda made those infestors way earlier rather than mass roach/hydra

  • Psy - King of the Giblets! :D

  • 8:37 I heard idra rage lol

  • 5:40 jumping from hatch to hive like a bouse
