Mission #7 "The Great Train Robbery" - SC2 Brutal Walkthrough

[TheChocx]

wow o_o like a boss

[shahar72]

aha..aha..DB pilots are delusional psycho..like the way they say it..

[acstas87]

zai is better at this game than most, so he makes this look easier than it seems to most. the best way for most players (self included) to beat this mission easily imo is to do the dig first. siege tanks make this mission painfully easy.

[saintdogbert666]

godamit, cant believe it was this easy

[cp3kl42kd35]

lol, this is the only mission in which i use Db

[wefuntw]

"I am not even sure if I ever lost a diamondback" WOWOWO

[mitzibishi]

a good tip is catch the back of the train, the units protecting the front wont break from front of the train

[o652300]

i reason i lose this mission is cuz i lose too many Dbs too early in the game :D but i just cant help it dude.. they're just so weak :<

[DoctorJ0023]

how do u remove units from a group?

[chronofusion]

YAAA..i beat .it..i missed the OBVIOUS thing. more than one factory=MUCH better chance of massing db's. duh ( facepalm using shovel).  thanks for the vid again psy

[RuneNaundrupDahl]

Your funny :)

[chronofusion]

wow. glad someone else thinks this is easy..this mission is pure gd bs. even when i have a army of 26 db's, 6 wp's adn 3 healers..JUST before the last train..i get massacred by two groups of dominion...htf do i even have any group of db's ready to take on last train.ADN THAT'S EVEN SKIPPING ONE of the trains..that you're allowed to skip.. wtf?

[chronofusion]

nice vid slick.  helped me pinpoint my brainfart early in this mission..cudos.

[Soccercrazyigboman]

damn you make everything look too easy GODDAMN SON RESPECT

[LasTCursE69]

What's on bell shir? nah fuck belshir lolz

[Geezness63]

ha nm my bad i think u got it :p

[Geezness63]

There is a Diamondback on the same plateau where Zai grabs his first diamondback, its just not highlighted. up and to the right in the corner of the plateau

[Ibakecookiess]

Zai is so fucking chill. gosh



[SwiftEffect]

Tips to beating this easily (Legit Tips)

1. Never Stop Building DiamondBacks, and goto armory and upgrade both

2. After you destroyed a train you need to do 4 things, find more DB's, find more Minerals, Find Bones, and Goto Base to heal up, at the last 3 trains you should be done with most of ur mineral patches, so you should have at least 8 SCV's grouped ready to heal the DB's

3. Micro so that those Raven Bombs dont explode on ur ball

4. Build War Pigs Constantly once you have no gas

[sirdavallen3]

Also, Zai can you please beat the campaign for me? >.> lol

[sirdavallen3]

How do you remove units from a control group?

[MrVarhansen]

this mission sucks ass

[serban277]

Basically in each and every mission you have to use the units that they introduce and you'll be fine.

[furyz100]

5 people got killed on the train and 464 was watching it :D

[Cheezwise]

"Whats the other achievement? I have no fucking clue" hahaha very good walkthrough thx

[Ashmourne1]

i'm getting tired of xfinity comercials..

[eastsidahboy]

can make this done zai shit i needed help



[krys3001]

Awesome walkthrough. Entertaining as well.

Q: How do you unselect injured Diamondbacks from your hotkey???

[hojnkim97]

@krys3001 press shift and click on the diamondback icon - it deselects that diamondback

[Ciemon]

@krys3001 shift+click it and then press Ctrl+NUmber of your choice, preferably the number you had before :)

[matttheyak]

fantastic! was slamming my head against the wall trying to complete this for hours... finished first time round after watching this. A++

[jorgore13]

the diamondback voice reminds me of batman

[BjarkeIsUgly]

how do you remove a single unit from hotkey?

[Perminator]

@BjarkeIsUgly hotkey, shift-click unit, ctrl+ hotkey

[BjarkeIsUgly]

@Perminator thanks :)

[rayxu1996]

Diamondback like VRays attack beam would be OP

[printo69]

those damn kill teams wipe out my army and then Im screwed and have to restart the mission.

[caos1925]

am i the only one who thinks that the diamonback pilot sounds like han solo from starwars

[keithlemons]

the ease with which you beat these missions pisses me off!

[richard2mitchell]

@keithlemons I know right.

[Phatnaru0001]

Zai, man I love your walkthroughs and Psy's commentaries. Don't worry about nervsux! Speaking of ur walkthroughs, they are awesome so it is worth waiting for it, but the ads at the begining and end suck! Do u at least get paid for them being on there, if not u should demand money or that they be taken off

[Phatnaru0001]

@nervsux you puss-infected vagina blood-fart.... a.k.a. tool

[ZomgItzEdwin]

"whats on belshir.. Nah fuck belshir"

[vizardvolroc]

Diamond backs should replace helions :P

[BBoyHuey]

whoa did anyone else notice this?

zai: "you need to get him out of there so youre not eating huge aoe damage"

diamondback: "get me out of here"

[kazoomify]

We should all do a shot everytime psy says diamondback :D

[246trinitrotoluene]

the trouble is getting to critical mass early on so you dont waste money replacing every time.

i had to let 1 train pass to build up enough, and the last train got so close, that its wreckage was exploding passed the finish line.

[dcourtn1]

zai

you are fucckin hilarious too

[saxerlr]

Hey, great tip for this mission.. to make it way easier on brutal, and you get all achievements with ease. Psy is a great helper, but the best way to do this mission is to do the siege tank mission first and get siege mercs and upgrades, and just post em up and kill the trains, and you can own the roving Marauders with ease too, take out both groups at the same time w/ mass siege tanks,

-Raggy

[Zomfgwtfbbq1337]

if you do the refuge missions and get vikings, you can use them to scout targets for the laser drill artifact mission which gets you siege tanks, then use the siege tanks on this mission to wreck the trains

[oddsito]

Zaiii your so drunk ... yesterday i got drunk ... your voice ... is like Sooo funny xD! hjahahahaah

[hej100]

@Arkains10

You can. Just play the siege tank mission. Diamondback isnt that usefull anyway to get early.

[tagptroll1]

Why do you use "food" and not "supply"

[jminner1679]

@tagptroll1 BECAUSE EVERYBODY PLAYED AGE OF EMPIRES DUH

[tagptroll1]

@jminner1679 Calm down... No need to caps about a question :/

[strikermovies4u]

@jminner1679 or warcraft

[Fangor12]

@tagptroll1 probably because is plays alot of warcraft and is use to saying food from warcraft

[iDelivered]

@Fangor12

PSI is referred to as food just because it is. Not cuz he plays WoW.. =/

[Anonie324]

@tagptroll1 Because it applies to all races of all RTS's.

[greeneightball]

Were gonna stim these guys and then were gonna go!

[rabospawn]

What's really confusing for me is the youtube video is 16:36, but the actual in game mission timer at the end of the game says it took him 20:49...... .WTF

[sinflare]

@rabospawn In-game time is faster than real time.

[rabospawn]

@sinflare They should have just designed actual default game speed to go by normal time, and then slowed or sped it up accordingly xD.

[hosermcmoose]

For anyone having too much trouble with this mission, just do the Protoss relic missions first until you get Siege Tanks and then come back to do this one. With Siege Tanks this mission is just insanely easy; siege up in the middle and you pretty much destroy everything before they get a shot off.



[NoUseForAName06]

Diamondback? Weird, in the german version they are called "cobras".... both names are equally stupid IMO

[jeremyshaw1]

@NoUseForAName06 Both still species of snakes...

[NoUseForAName06]

@jeremyshaw1 LOL! I confused diamondbacks with razorbacks, the dinosaurs ^^

[EvilShadowD]

@jeremyshaw1

Hmm...That's why in the LA version (Latin America) they are called "Cascavél"(That's a snake right there)...

[vagyrgr]

@NoUseForAName06 and to the other guys who responded

i guess blizzard's translation teams said "eh its a snake name" when it came to translating the exact type of snake to other languages

[strikermovies4u]

@NoUseForAName06 at sc1 it was a cobra but now they are diamond backs well they all sound stupid yes

[Faded757]

"OH SHIT. Totally the wrong spot"

hahaha Zai you're awesome

[jimmyjoejoeshabadoo]

@nervsux Tool Mctoolson

[Armalizilto]

During development, why did Blizzard take Diamondback Tanks out of Multiplayer? Is it because they're not that good, reliable or overpowered?

[reddogt77]

@Armalizilto because they require 0 skill to kill all melee unites and roaches.

[Armalizilto]

@reddogt77 Damn freakin' straight! You got that right!

[XeviatorXevious]

auto gas FTW

[itchybo510]

grab an expansion the the north west and you can macro much more efficently

[chattyw87]

by another awesome mech unit i hope you dont mean the Goliath I find no place for them

[NightsJudgement]

@chattyw87 Vultures I would guess, they are made of incredible amounts of win.

[aEaTaOaWaNa]

How'd you take them off your group?

[HungN24]

@aEaTaOaWaNa

i think it's alt+click

[Masna360]

Psy, tell your brother he is fucking awesome and he needs to start his own channel NOW. You guys are the sickest tag-team of all time.

[Promaszta]

LOL TOOL

[IdclipPeru]

Zai man you need to do a video about the secret in the mission 3

it looks awesome !!

[kunstderfugue]

@nervsux

too(l) honest, too(l) overreactive

[13vinh]

@nervsux TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOL

[stfun00belnub]

@nervsux Tooooool!

[princeofiron]

@nervsux TOOOOOOOOL

[multidinero]

@nervsux Is it easier to be dickhead than to just shut up and leave? It's his brother! Plus, he's too badass for your toolish nonsense talk!

[Paggee]

I need regular replays from Psy! It's been two days now. I'm getting withdrawal symptoms and can't sleep properly...

[Pisces3124]

@nervsux why do you hate fun?

[CRPMoonlight]

@nervsux lol, idiot.

[UniqueConformity]

@nervsux Hahaha, you're such a tool.

[ServantOfNone]

bring back the Zai, Psy 2v2! those older games were awesome. TY for all the vids, you might want let people know how to send donations, coz i dont know how to lol, so Im assuming there would be a lot of other with the same problem. - DrPhill aka Jaycob

[Kadazik]

Zai here.. i think i allready said that but u know... I am still here

EPIC! :D

[mrjingles77]

Lots of num nums here

[jamquackers]

the other achievement you missed is not letting a train pass on hard difficulty

[LuiCduardo]

there problems with the video

[ElvenNoble]

FINAL NOTE: (yeah I have a bad memory for details T_T) the reason I mention this even though Zai noted there was an enemy base there is because going there early in the mission (on the lower difficulties) made it very easy for me to level the base while suffering minimal/zero losses.

[ElvenNoble]

Forgot to note on my previous comment that I'd advise moving there AFTER you mine out your main, since I think there's less geysers there (not 100% sure).

[ElvenNoble]

Just a heads up to players who can afford to spare the APM, at 3:40, as Zai moves up the ramp, there is an enemy base to your left on the higher ground above the ramp. It's easy to level it on lower difficulties (I haven't tried it on Brutal), but if you can kill it without losing much on Brutal, you can send your CC and SCVs to mine there. Also, afaik, the computer never sends any units to attack you there. (this is my experience from a few playthroughs, so this may or may not work for you)

[shortys00100]

zai turn the game sounds down dude! thanks though.

[LeitherYiltron]

"Zai" is so close to "Psy" that you can't blame him for a misconception.

[coolflame18]

you are not Psy you fucking imposter....

[AtomicBlizzard12]

@coolflame18 he uses the name he even calls himself Zai in the beginning of the video, In think hes Psy brother or something

[jCMakE14]

@coolflame18 no shit. hes zai.

[xfyre101]

"even though you probably watch psy's vids first...awww =(" LOL

[o0oVaudeno0o]

Zaiiiiiii you should totally post like... 2 missions a day :D Because you're the only commentator i can find that does these missions like super face. :P

[oSil3NTFuRRii]

@o0oVaudeno0o actually he thinking gamer does b rual tutorials really im watching him when theres no zai vid he also has a hot key tutorial which helped me alot

[NightsJudgement]

@o0oVaudeno0o 2 a day would be awesome, but I'd like to see at least 1 a day :)

[Eris515]

hehehehehe

[dragonmekill]

I watched this one first n.n

[Roblinify]

@riddikc

the one who makes these videos is zai, not psy, I guess psy lets him use his channel to upload stuff, they are friends irl.

[xGore220]

@Roblinify they r brothers.

[coastfan24]

@Roblinify good one, your an idiot. zai is his brother. idiot

[SilverJigProductions]

@coastfan24 And you're a dick, dick.

[learsi88]

Funny thing it says in the end it took 20 minutes while the video itself is 16:36 :P

Either have nice editing cause I didn't notice any speed ups or something's wrong with the timer.

Nice video all in all =) Keep up the good job.

[TheCatsPajamas098]

@learsi88 the game is played on "faster" which is slightly faster than "normal". if you watch a watch and the in game clock, the in game clock goes faster. it's intentional

[Joesterisk]

@learsi88 you sir are a fucking idiot

[Pisces3124]

@learsi88 starcraft time is quicker than real time

[Riddikc]

Why is someone hijacking psy's account for these singleplayer-missions?

[thevoid1231]

I WATCHED THIS FIRST; PLZ DONT CRY ZAI!

[KakuKachoO]

yeah. This mission is a joke EVEN IN BRUTAL if you have siege tanks. If you pump out like 10 tanks or so and place them right, they can blow up those tanks in matter of seconds, along with the enemy units around the train.

[norbolt]

I feel sorry for watching Psy's video first now :(

[KivexInc]

i beat this mission with medic - marauder for guards and diamondbacks to catch the train. It was easy considering Marauders doing so much damage to the train, then kill the guards, then try to hit more the train...easy easy

[Eruc176]

Zai doesnt look like the 150 APM maniac player but i'd still like to see him play a game or 2 online or vs Psy :) Just for the lols.

[DanielSmith604]

These were one of the more difficult missions to complete in brutal before learning the trick against the ai. I found the best way to go about this mission was 1tank and a bunker with your 4 marines defending your base, then build nothing but the diamond backs and upgrading them in the armoury.

[realfreakaynaughtay]

Rofl that tank sieged up.

[aTerranWraith]

Havent done this mission on brutal yet but i generally get the tank mission done first, since they help soo much in this mission (that and the merc tanks as well),

Just get a factory and barrack next to each rail line and use tanks+bunkers to take em out.

[theyWantedblood]

I'm one of those people that never gives a shit about the campaign, but this guy is hilarious enough to keep me watching (even though I could give a crap less about actually doing the missions haha).

Does anyone know which one of them is older, or these bros twins? They should do a 2v2 and have a double cast where they exclusively do super cheesy/all-in type stuff, then provide awesome commentary to go along with... Ahh would be so

[1messiahcomplex]

I wish your released this before I beat the campaign on brutal

[tjello]

AWWWWW

[Miloshactor]

=======>> U r cool, i like u! <<========== 

[MrZoichi]

"Naw, f*** Bel'Shir." That is exactly what I think when I see that mission.

[judaiyugisanhi]

is it okay to get the siege tanks mission first?

[1messiahcomplex]

@judaiyugisanhi ya that's what i usually do it just makes this mission much easier

[DayManNightMan1]

@judaiyugisanhi Naturally if beating a different mission first helps you beat this one, feel free. I'm just doing the quickest way I know to get the Protoss missions so that I can get all the yummy research points from those 4 missions.

[nazgul3446]

What is Zai main race?

[DayManNightMan1]

@nazgul3446 I've played random in 100% of my online games.

[DontFearGrim]

@nazgul3446 if its anything other than zerg, then he's clearly the black sheep of the family.

[bioniclemaster1]

do bel shir next please xD

[mraks3]

I am watching your vids first

[GadBoDag]

You can click the "Achievements" button in the corner to see what they are during a level! :)

[hej100]

If you put some siege tanks on the high ground you can kill the mauraders really easy + thier medics stay and heals when someone's damaged which makes it really easy to kill them

[Arkains10]

@hej100 you dont have siege tanks yet

[metaitachi]

I was just able to completely mass diamondbacks and beat hard easily (didnt bother with brutal yet)

[123and]

I can't wait for the last mission. I've been held up by the last mission "All In" for about 1 week, Kerrigan is so damn strong. Can't wait for to see how you completed it. :)

[Wrestlerstcc]

Just build bunkers where the tracks link. Its even easier if you have siege tanks as well. This helps deal with the death squads and the bunkers that go up later.

just use a few DB's to chase down the trains.

[Dexirock]

Y'know, together with Psy and Zai, this may be the best Starcraft related channel ever made :D

[NCC1577]

i went mass reaper to chase down the trains; while my main army would always engage the trains' defense

[Zebonka]

Man I wish someone would make a Warcraft 1 mod for this game.

Every Warcraft since WC3 has been faggoty (full of elf nonsense and magic crap). It'd be great to get back to basics - humans vs. the green bastards, real rock'n'roll.

[metaitachi]

@Zebonka I thought that the only warcrafts since 3 were the world ofs...

[Zebonka]

That's pretty much what I was getting at.

[IceTee3]

I rly rly like your mission videos!!!

and i´m always watching your vidoes first!

if u can pls upload 2 at a day!!! =D

Thumps up if u think so too

Greetings from germany =)

[bermagic]

20minute mission done in 16minute vid inlcues win screen and intro

wierd..

[jamrs0331]

@bermagic

SC II time is faster due to the faster setting

[xSaLaYa]

Zai is hilarious.

[schtrigga]

Wait-zerg do have bones!? They were described as insectlike, with exoskeletons etc, i guess there are many exceptions because of the many assimilated races in there...

[xwickedtribex]

@schtrigga Alot of them have remains such as bones... if you even start the SC2 campaign theres a hydralisk skull hanging on the wall

[IneedaYTaccount]

@schtrigga Maybe the assimlated buggers grew exoskeletons when they deemed it neccessary :o If I remember, the hydra used to be a caterpillar until it was turned into some spine flinging machine.

[Kleavers]

I hated this one on Brutal.

[xShadowsaur]

YOU KILLED THAT ANIMAL! YOU BASTARDDDDD

[ScaredHelmet]

I can't wait to hear him talk this calm when he's doing In Utter Darkness on brutal.

[Malexdd]

@ScaredHelmet

In Utter Darkness is one of the easiest Brutal missions, I doubt he will have any problems with remaining calm.

[Rock11391]

@fallenup19

They're each others niggas. :D

[TheRedLuigi]

Diamondvags?

[soadrock18]

i got banshees for this mission... safe haven and all in are also very hard:D

[thien1234]

lol wander what happens when u land the CC right on the rail

[DayManNightMan1]

@thien1234 Don't think you can, I tried to build depots on it and it wouldn't let me.

[fallenup19]

can someone explain the relationship between zai and psy, im so confused!

[Shellath]

@fallenup19 They are brothers.

[Iaadpgg92]

@fallenup19 brothers
