HD Starcraft 2 ST.Rainbow v Taeho p2

[seizedchild]

whew.. what a game! 

[JeeMouseMan2]

dat changeling <3

opened up mkp's base for that final attack

[WolfPack726]

You know I actually like the longer games and I'd really like to see a good zergvszerg don't think I've actually seen any

[rhinekhan]

8:10 6CCs on construction

[666caveman]

congress of ravens

[Jamick98Geass]

Intense stuff.

[LarsRypien]

What a game. Probably the most entertaining I've seen yet!

[Emidretrauqe]

That feeling when the Zerg player has the entire map, you're left turtling in one base in the far corner, with the enemy slowly closing in, and then discovering that one of the marines in your base has been a changeling...

[LeninKGB]

As grieved as iam(ive been rooting for the terran)i must admit this game was unforgettable and truly remarkable.The terran's decision to neglect strengthening his units with vital upgrades eventually ended up resulting in his fiasco,nevertheless his sophisticated air force technique was unimaginably spectacular so thanks for the thrilling show!:D

[RssMMA]

This was probably the best game/commentary for sc2 i've seen

[abrown2986]

THumbs up if you wanted the terran to win

[zerey00]

@abrown2986 i have it a thumbs down

[olegdangerous]

ewerybody loves to watch such non-standard games like this

[startfertig1]

bad game, gay voiced commentary.:(

[MagicSRE8990]

Chitin is a structural polysaccharide found in most insects and some fungi. Not a sugar but I guess they're pretty close. At least he says "ki-tin" and not "chih-tin."

[ratoncitoxxx]

i think the terran won that game

[sidekick1024]

MONSTER Game! G-R-E-A-T !!!

[renegadespork]

lol 88 lings being produced at 8:50

[lummymanpix]

hd should cast mlg!!! thumbs up if you agree!!

[thg2k]

omg this game is horrible, it was good for failcraft!

[artandazola]

"maybe it wasn't worth it... there is a bunch of command centers just chilling around here." Funny HD. :-) Almost laughed as much as when you said "Karak"

[TheDouglasReid]

SVC massacre! love it!

[TheDouglasReid]

SVC massacre! love it!

[Rockwarrior2004]

34 seconds away form a hour long game. I would stay just to get that hour in.

[djnavi850]

lol he is still splitting games to get more views, what a douche

[TheJufe]

@djnavi850 dude he probably figures that if people see a 40 minute video they aren't going to want to watch it.

[aguynamedoleg]

I think terran would have won if he did those vital upgrades early on and used vikings to support them and again he needed to have 3/3 air upgrades... It seemed like he could of won so many times if he spammed the turrets on the zerg's main base, but instead he only dropped 1/2 of his energy's potential.

[Seiku]

Ravens turrets to lure enemy units into nukes would be cool.

[skankin0hazard]

BTW HD its not a murder of ravens, they are a conspiracy of ravens!

[MostazalsLord]

Awesome game, players and cast!

[amirandtrina]

i think he could have won that easily if he upgraded come on.

[Cheeshunt3r]

@umadbrow you mad bro?

[vleessjuu]

Moral of the story: mass Ravens alone don't cut it. Pair them up with something that can actually fight. Like... you do with every spellcaster.

[Lossendal]

its an unkindness of ravens. no murder.

[chauhchao]

Hero Changeling



[JvierLee]

16:40 remind me of starcraft1 pathing, dumb AI

[HawtStyle3000]

That ending was futile. Should have ended a long time ago.

[CANjeremyt]

air weapons/ armour upgrade? autoturret range? structure +1? banshee cloak? whats going on????????!!!

[evelic]

Epic game. Props to the zerg, i hate terrans they're op.

[LyricsAsPoetry]

Stop calling the Polanetary Forotdds "PF". Its name is too superior to not be spelled out.

[Behmushimushi]

I love how HD raises his voice up when something epic is going on. =D

[traluxi]

Terran: The only race that can play ANYTHING up to Prolvl bc every unit is OP..wanna see another race playing mass air only in a Progame..

[Advenger22]

@traluxi Toss does :P.. and Z does :P.. DRG is a big fan of mass mass muta for a Z example. HuK and White-ra both use air on occasion, just to name a few. Unless your just trolling.. in which case LOL you got me xD.

[WakeSideLife]

@traluxi sounds like a bad zerg.

[traluxi]

@WakeSideLife

used to be Diamond Zerg but I switched to protoss(which is far supperior to zerg but still weak compared to Terran)

you, on the other hand, sound like a bad terran who is still masters bc of ridiculous all in plays

congratz

[Run1t3]

the noise when HD see's the worker kill count <3 15:36

[SSStylish198]

@JimboLiL wow... are you for real man? you clearly have no idea about starcraft. What about mules then? terran was in one base during the last 10 minutes, while zerg had like 4 and stiull the terran had the same income. Tell me if that is not imba, you fucking moron

[SHPGaming]

@JimboLiL Someone isn't happy o.o Each race has it's advantage, get over it..

[SuckMikeHunt]

Chitin is a POLYMER based of sugar molecules !!!!!!!!!

[xXTheWhiteSharkXx]

@JimboLiL Hahahahaha Terran complaining about balance. Thats a good one.

[tarandril95]

15:20 hd gasam

[donnachaidh]

Chitin is a polysaccharide -- sugars (at least the edible kinds) are monosaccharides. Chitin does contain sugar molecules but isn't sugar, and it's what the exoskeletons of pretty much all insects are made of. It's the calcium carbonate (what human bones are made of, as well as animal shells) of the insect world.

[nigma512]

@donnachaidh Close but bones are calcium phosphate. Calcium carbonate is chalk. Also human's have chitin as well. Your finger nails. Edible sugars are for the most part disacharides, specifically sucrose. But not bad for someone on youtube.

[nigma512]

@donnachaidh oh please excuse me. fingernails are keratin, i get those two confused

[Crossopterygii]

@donnachaidh Human bones are primarily calcium phosphate (In the form of hydroxylapatite), not calcium carbonate.

[thiennguyenX2]

@donnachaidh nice.

[lilmisho]

@donnachaidh I'll just pretend that I fully understand what you said...

[rustam19977]

@donnachaidh someone has been doing theur homework

[kaiuycn]

@donnachaidh also fungi also contains chitin.

[mattty17]

Reloadable PF's

[dzeikei]

I reckon that Rainbow said "I will play without marines k?"

[ELPCPU]

I hate to see infestors chain fungal growth against massive air army.

It is such a imba. Because air units clump up easily, if you hit one good fungal, whole air army is dead.

There is Thor splash damage and psi storm for terran and protoss's massive air splash, but you can run away from thor or psi storm. but one Fungal growth could simply murders everthing.

[NecroAsFuck]

@ELPCPU That's why Infestors just got a nerf :D

[tehverybestcomment]

Spectacular :)

[noraac]

i wiki'd chitin because of you <3

[TheCaptainAtomic]

chitin is what bugs use as a skeleton -.-

[DoubleOh16]

@TheCaptainAtomic i agreee...... high school biology prease

[mendebone]

Chitin (pron kee tin) is actually the protein that forms insect plating.

[bigslik20]

if he some ghosts with those ravens i think it would have been a different story..however that would have been alot more gas than he had so idk

[CoSpark09]

hey HD, can you pull up the APM tab from time to time?

[maximdekov]

Music of the way /watch?v=EI8ns_aBtzM

[Wilson1592]

I think we all get it. HD was wrong about chitin, we don't need 8 thousand re-posts to remind us.

[flipazn65]

such BM for not leaving the game when he obviously has no chance of survival.

[lektrum]

Terran sucked at countering all game long. This was NOT an exciting game.

[246trinitrotoluene]

chitin is a polysaccharide that uses amino acids to strengthen linkages used in shells exoskeletons etc.

i don't know what you consider was "sweet", but it's definitely not my first choice.

[slimeshady]

didint need to go for ultras and all

[slimeshady]

taeho was playing with marinekings balls man. he had it. corrupter broodlord. thats all

[vetiarvind]

@slimeshady did you not see the comment at the start? That was NOT marineking :p

[valivondtru]

boring sucky game.. BTW, chitin is indeed a glucose polymer, like cellulose, but it has nothing to do with sweetness. Sugar, as a word is improperly used in chemistry, and it defines a very large class of substances. you are a pseudo-intellectual, go back to school

[micayc07]

15:35 HD just... arrived. And again at 16:38. Just the right excitement level for an awesome SC2 game I think.

[drife1975]

Energy drinks makes you stay awake. rolls eyes. Its all fake. The next day you're gonna be so burned out and non productive.

[lilaznb0y33]

lol rainbow obviously was messing around, knowing the only server this strat would work was on american ladder

[ladev1988]

It all came down to that changeling, he saw when the tanks were unsieged and did what he had to do... Other than that it was a matter of time 7 base vs almost 1 base not that much that he could have done except major turtling and waiting for the minerals to go out :D which is only in ferry tales

[Sausack22]

add 2 ghosts and there is no counter for zerg :D:D maybe 1 medivac with ghosts inside so you can emp and still be all air...:P i like this strategie :)

[TheRoomy]

The thing I used to hate the most with your video was how you should do a weird drooling breathing-in thing that was really annoying. It was kind of a "SSSSHHHHHLLLL" sound you'd make every 30 seconds and breathe in, which was so unbelievably annoying to the viewer. But now I think the most annoying thing with your casts are how you can't pronounce certain words correctly, like when you say "wrek havoc" instead of "'WREEK' havoc". It's pronounced 'REEK', not 'reck'. It's so annoying.

[ThatsSaucey]

1:09 " are there going to be enough ravens to hold this back "

How often do u hear that in a starcraft match lol

[WingedSoulies]

siege tanks r murdererS!

[Creaform003]

I think starcraft needs to be played by teams of two, someone with high apm to controle the units and a second to monitor upgrades and work out counters and strategies on the fly etc etc.

[WingedSoulies]

@Creaform003 thats y pro players are pro

they do all that

people who cant even micro n macro 2gether isnt a top tier player..

[sbfpat]

a "murder" is a group of crows. a group of ravens is called an "unkindness."

[ZacharyCortez]

15:38 XD

[huskypwns4]

seeker missle should do more damage

[huskypwns4]

BEST GAME EVER

[ojon12389]

awesome game

[hotshot619]

Taho vs. Marine king.... love how neither actually have that as their names. So confusing.

Also love Marine king barely made 15 marines :-P

[nyave]

@hotshot619 Sadly this wasn't Marine King :P It is ST Rainbow.

[hotshot619]

Taho vs. Marine king.... love how neither actually have that as their names. So confusing.

Also love Marine king barely made 15 marines :-P

[swesimon]

Epic game. Z OP!

[huskypwns4]

@swesimon wow u little spoiler

[kakpaj]

The zerg has nice upgrades for his bio :) HD you are awesome!

[BrandonCerelius]

@hombredelpartido Red Bull will make you sick when you drink a huge can at 1:30AM, jump your body with caffeine (and etc), stay up all night and don't get any sleep.

[TheCrAzEdMiKe]

I was pretty much yelling at MKP when he had the opportunity to tech switch into Battlecruisers and didn't... I actually think that his original mid-game strategy was pretty good with the ravens (obviously could have used those upgrades) but I think once he had all those bases up that was the time when he needed to start thinking Battlecruisers... Not only are they great vs Ultras, Hydras and Brood Lords... But it is so hard for infestors to actually kill them off. amazing game to watch though.

[tee23en]

an unkindness of ravens

[staphinfection]

To win as Zerg against Terran, you just have to take every base on the map, spread creep across the entire map, completely corner the Terran on 1-2 bases. Get both Tier 3 units with your army and lose it 10x over while weakening the Terran army, get all upgrades, double nydus networks, and do all of this while still injecting every single base you have....

Then you might have a chance to win as Zerg. But probably not...

[staphinfection]

It's also ridiculous how easily Terran can switch tech to deal with whatever the Zerg has. I though Zerg was the "reactive" race. Yet, they can't easily switch from BLord to something else, and back again, since it costs too much gas, and takes too much fucking time.

It's really frustrating how long a Terran can turtle like this and there's not much Zerg can do except keep throwing away army after army.

If it were Zerg or Protoss on the backfoot, they would have lost 30 mins ago.

[staphinfection]

LOOK AT HOW MUCH SUPPLY, MINERALS, AND GAS it takes the ZERG just to kill ONE Fucking PF!! Why don't Terran just build them everywhere once they have the minerals for it?? They are so good with a few turrets nearby.

The only thing Zerg has to SAFELY deal with them is BROOD LORDS, and VIKINGS / RAVENS can absolutely MURDER BLORDS.

It's pretty fucking lame actually.... Maybe if Ultralisks were actually WORTH a fucking piece of dog shit that's been rotting for 20 years.... but they aren't.

[iammestamanRS]

That changeling was genius. He attacked right when he unsieged. Boner points to Taeho!

[xanderwat]

Even though marine king lost this one...my hat goes off to him btw I'm a zerg player :D

[iammestamanRS]

7:50 look at the production tab. WTF

[eSCiimo]

EPIC

[dzyu]

It is called "An Unkindness of Ravens".

"A murder" is crows only.

I didn't know this either, I just googled it. Pretty cool. :)

[TBKGOLDY]

THE ENTIRE MAP IS IN CREEP!!!!!!!!!

[MrTheScrap]

Koreans don't need upgrades to win.

[Elquenoduda1]

WOW

[wasser199]

awesome game, HD ♥♥

[xMarty182x]

So an Infestor walks into a Terran bar.

The Infestor says "Where's the counter?"

[Sargas83]

@xMarty182x he can see him because the ghost it's cloaked

[toms33334]

@xMarty182x Marines answer terran op so win

[Jeppe8686]

@xMarty182x and while he talks, a ghost sneaks up behind him.....

[douwevh]

@xMarty182x

everyone answers: ghosts

[bahamuteem]

@douwevh but ghosts arent real :(

[AvatarofthePot]

@xMarty182x Stealthed right next to you.

[mrtigerman4ever]

@xMarty182x Thats a marine joke...had the terran made marines he probably wouldve won easily lol

[mrtigerman4ever]

@xMarty182x Besides...ghosts are the answer ;)

[Sprintspeed]

@xMarty182x "Right over there at the Ghost table. Joining him is every single zerg unit in the game, besides lings and blings. It might be hard to see because the table is also invisible and regularly calls down nuclear armageddon every few hours."

[SvennemanZZZ]

@xMarty182x its called "Split up fellow marines!"

[BojaDrawing]

@xMarty182x not mass raven

[traluxi]

@xMarty182x

a ghost raises his hand and 59 Infestors cover their heads in fear

[PrinceOsiris]

FOR THE SWARM!!!

[IIIIExabyteIIII]

Very entertaining and epic game, but if you ask me, I think MKP never had a realistic chance of winning that game

[truiteleague]

@IIIIExabyteIIII yeah He never had a chance of winning because he did not play this game!!! BlackCitadel is startale_rainbow!!!

[Shad0wSix]

15:37 jaw drop

[arghnews]

ROFL at HD's "noise" at 15:30 :DDDDDD

[SilentShot12]

ANTI SPOILER ZERG GOES BLINK STALKER!

[halflifeholborn]

i dont really understand, why the terran, when he gets 5k minerals, doesnt add a lot of barracks with reactor, just that he can use all his minerals and supply in marines... and i also think, if he get that lot of ravens, why hi didnt push the creep spread more and more back... of course its very easy to say, after a game is played, and i dont think that im nearly that good like the terran, but its what i thought as i watched this game :)

[Tomoko231]

cheese

[sacpelicancom]

This game is EPIC. GG for both of the players, they were really great !

[frenzetics]

EPIC !

GREAT STRATS!

Great terran play !

Great zerg play !

Pure Awesome !

[ion6oetos]

In fact chitin is an ingredient of the exoskeleton of insects. It is a complex carbohydrate (a polysaccharide) and as such it consists of many molecules of a simple carbohydrate in a row. The simple carbohydrate component of chitin is a derivative of glucose.

That being said, chitin does not have a sweet taste. Likewise the fibers in our diet, which have a similar chemical structure, are not sweet either.

[44chappo]

So who did I just watch play? Was it ST RainBow, Taeho, Foxer, Boxer, MKP, optimus prime, polt prime, raven king prime, marine king (prime), IAmTheNight, BlackCitadel, the zerg player, the terran player? You can't cast 10 different games at once and pass it off as 1 game.

[sungyuchien]

what a long long game......

[FortPlz]

"banshees and ravens, the counter to corruptors" -IdrA

[rabbitch10]

HD pliz... up load the final between thorzain vs dongraegu in dreamhack valencia. i realy want to see (anti spoiler)

[Tenc26]

Very nice game :)

[Dappyking]

I can't wait for terrans to do this stupid shit on the ladder now... holy fucking nutsacks I quit. I QUIT!

[RytleA]

@Dappyking you mean the stupid shit where they lose?

[Minotona]

infestors are perfect counter to every unit in the game, so having 10+ infestors in the army is enough to win

[3wsgabav3]

"Sugar-coated Ultra-husks!"

[tonyzaman1]

THE MOST EPIC GAME EVER

[Mylifeofdragons]

Thumbs up to tell HD that ravens don't come in murders, but in unkindnesses, as well as flock being technically correct, but an unkindness of ravens just being cooler.

[steezemsbaby]

Oh yeah your retarded HD. Calling Rainbow Marineking. You dont know shit about your players

[werwar666]

@steezemsbaby wow he makes one mistake in like months are youre calling him retarded? Go kill yourself youre a cancer to this world.

[Zache51]

@steezemsbaby Are you being ironic troll or are you fucking stupid? I can´t tell for certain

[aquil3333]

Kinda like gears of war if COG was terran!

[shrci2]

Turrets needs to be NURFED =.=

[Laian41]

HD please organize your playlist/channels!

make a channel for older replays, for korean replays, for first person replays etc.!

[chingala12345]

Shitty game, the terran was under-expanded the whole game and never got air upgrades when most of his army was air. It was interesting at first but the complete lack of upgrades killed him.

[steezemsbaby]

@chingala12345 Dude Startale Rainbow dicks around so much. He was most likely doing this for fun. If he played standard, this zerg woulda lost forever ago

[NigelGriff]

Chitin doesn't just mean sugar in general, it is a long chain polymer derived from glucose (sugar) that arthropods use for exoskeletons. Chitinous plating would basically mean thick plates similar to a crabs shell.

[SalsaMike70]

@NigelGriff . Awsome man. That is exactly what I was thinking. Biologist I image like myself.
