IPL Top 5 Plays - Episode 12

[kinglyredlion]

seriously brood lord move speed? nukes and vortex. completely stupid.

[ArtanisOwns]

would be a much, much better series without the intro and fatass

[neozxa]

@iaiceikiingi47i Just curious: Now people are saying Protoss is OP?

[neozxa]

IMHappy vs Alive = One of the best TvTs ever.

[BillYiOn1]

They should bring back the archon toilet just so zerg can counter with baneling toilet. Otherwise, gg zerg even though your 200/200 army is pure t3 units.

[knightreyder]

immortal micro was just insane i'd GG too

[HLGxMiner]

That tie is from macys

[yoda0017]

Mouth went completely slack at the sight of two massive viking forces with point defence drone fleets guarding each fleet. Never seen so many little lasers sniping off missiles in my life.

[TheZanursic]

Zerg isn't a micro race that doesn't mean it doesn't require skill. Making a decision when to drone is just about the hardest thing in the game.

[neozxa]

@TheZanursic Actually, Zerg NOT being a micro race only makes it worse for the Zerg, since if you have a inferior army compared to your opponent's, you can't change the tide with micro, you're just stuck with what you have.

[Acatenango3]

The PvP close air warp prism micro scene was the best in my opinion. Great video once again!

[tianyou546]

I like how super late-game TvT transitions into vikings/ravens

(Yugioh block was really cool too)

[sor3999]

Holy shit #1 lol Kiwikaki had it right. The toilet still lives and that anti-baneling vortex was SO FUCKING clutch lol. And damn Kevin they made you shave your beard!!! T~T

[TheSGRob]

wow, its rare that micro alone can win you a game in SC2 especially at pro level, but that was pretty good by grubby

and that archon toilet was awesome, using 2 vortexs to stop the banelings hitting the archons, not many players would think like that

[alvisyip10320]

archon toilet = bug

[sor3999]

@alvisyip10320 It's not a bug; it's a feature.

[Enuma55]

That Archon toilet was disgusting!

[Hieloo1337]

zerg micro against helions and grubby micro were the best 2 :D

[601215462]

My god, mind blowing

[MrWivyx]

People don't realize how important and clutch that second vortex was. Right after the BLords died, HerO put his archons in the second vortex only to get vaporized by the banes.

[Musici344]

Kevin is turning into JP

[BaxBellru]

Archon toilet is such a motherfucking joke. Did blizzard want to balance lategame by killing 16 broodlords intantly? Nice, nice.

[TheTachy0n]

@BaxBellru You're aware of that this is the ONLY way to beat BL+infestor late game right? :( We have to do this or else we will lose for sure.

[woLLhardt]

@TheTachy0n go voidrays?? carriers? or learn to blink.

[AzNDraGoN4594]

Good quality videos!

[ProudGeek1]

Lol protoss - what a joke.

[MacGuffinSC]

Sick camera work!

[Monstructer]

Another great high production video! Keep it up IPL!

[Eikli]

Spreading units, counter to the archon toilet. Protips brought to you by youhavetomicroevenifyouareZerg dott com

[Malcer28]

Rofl, Blizzard nerfed the archon toilet and FAILED.

[ToolOtaku]

I thought Archon toilet was nerfed?

[MarioBrosClassic]

@ToolOtaku yup you are correct it was! what you see here is post nerf

[NetherMoore]

@ToolOtaku it was nerfed meaning u need more archons to do it. it used to be 3

[MacGuffinSC]

@ToolOtaku I believe it was nerfed so that units coming out of the vortex are immune to damage for 1.5 seconds or something. However with the way air units clump and dont disperse in the same way ground units do they are still close enough for archons/storms after the immunity ends.

[M1E1R]

@ToolOtaku

broodlords are so slow they don't really spread far enough.

[bungieftw1990]

You should turn this into a video playlist because none of the other top 5s are located on the side.

[RLPZ9]

@bungieftw1990 There is a Top 5 Playlist on this channel.

[benjibob95]

Wow the production quality on this video was great!

[duto009]

Vortex isnt cool anymore. U shouldve showed HerO's sick multidropping this game it was way more impressive!

[dkast5]

Need links to VODs for all of these.

[EwmonH]

The production of these just gets better every time. Maybe an intro/outro style for the GSL parts though, wasn't quite sure what the play was with Happy/Alive for the first few seconds.

[DAZILLA8]

Nerd chills for #1

[90QuattroKid]

5th place play was better than the 1st

[imperia777]

grubby n1

[espositoxx]

that yugioh block . is the most common tactic to defend vs banes in zvz ever.. he even fucked up pretty bad

[Bennetting]

Grubby's was pretty disgusting. Reminds me of zepplin drop/pickup.

[cubeface21]

Grubby has literally the best micro I've ever seen. I've seen him do things like that several times, across both SC2 and WC3, it's so impressive every time.

[romanoswestwood]

@cubeface21 So you never saw moon playing. I'm a big Grubby fan but the best micro in WC3 had def. moon

[MadBagOfHorses]

That Yugioh block was clutch! I was so afraid they were going to be highlighting some hellion bullshit, but that was awesome!

[HmzU]

Grubby just left my mouth wide open.

[MrDucktaper]

I guess he wasn't happy ;)

[SparePartsHere]

Grubby's play was the best by far imho. Godlike micro combined with unbelievable ability to think out of the box and come up with strategies on the fly really deserve appreciation.

[tetracycloide]

@SparePartsHere Immortal drops? The beta called, they want their 'out of the box strategies' back.

[MadBagOfHorses]

@tetracycloide

I believe the gentlemen was commenting primarily on the micro. You know, the use of the strategy. Which, if you didn't notice, was pretty amazing.

[tetracycloide]

@MadBagOfHorses I'm not contesting the level of micro, just the level of 'out of the box'ness. I did notice the micro and it was pretty amazing but well executed is not the same as 'out of the box.'

[Jeremyspys]

How was heros play better than grubbys? Placing down two huge spells isnt very impressive -.-

[IIminatoI]

Grubby,King of Hearts <3

[soleher]

I miss your beard.

[awdadwadawffasasda]

grubby wc3 <3

[Amomentforever]

GRUBBY SENT ME HERE

HAVENT WATCHED YET

LIKED FAVED SHARED

[Barkilax]

MOAR !!! this is awesome!!

[lecheparavaka]

the Grubby's play was the best!!

[b98504056]

did he put his arms in his jackets instead of sleeves?

[fizzz35]

Top 5 Plays of the Week:

Shnazy suits and purple ties

[ezgftt]

1 vortex is enough bullshit by itself

[ouwageil]

Why let he fly so many brootlords into the vortex?

[QinGu9221]

@ouwageil Because it's either let them kill half your army by itself or fly them in. He tried to put all the banelings in the vortex to insta kill the archons before the toilet could happen but HerO got a great vortex blocking the banes from getting in.

[JMDigitalFear]

They need to nerf mothership, but buff late game toss

[Takerfan57]

@JMDigitalFear

Behold HoTS,

[TDBhCorsica]

@JMDigitalFear exactly, both are incredibly stupid...Can you imagine retelling that to Nal_ra? So yeah there is only 1 unit that can deal with zerg deathball but if protoss gets this unit its 90% win...Sounds stupid

[Datastreamx]

@JMDigitalFear You don't seem to know what you are talking about.

[StevoKHS]

@Datastreamx neither do you...

[Gyozomroka]

@JMDigitalFear but...... late game, maxed out toss is the strongest thing in the game....

[q4luo]

@JMDigitalFear lol, lots of terran under masters are already getting stomped by late game protoss's A-move

[StevoKHS]

@q4luo game is balanced more for high end players then noobs...

[q4luo]

@StevoKHS i did say under and including low masters

[flectz]

@q4luo yeah fuck protoss, ez a-move race

[StevoKHS]

@flectz actually if anything zerg require the least micro

[1337zIgGy1337]

this guy is such a goof

[athlonovich]

where i can download these raplays :) ?

[benthekid92]

Don't worry guys they are going to buff protoss more

[MrMilan90]

Im always happy when you upload new Episodes :)

[hayden184]

fucking shitty vortex kids dont know how to spraed their shit

[Rednil1860]

the second vortex mindblowing!

[stutterfly29]

well done that Yugioh block was amazin
