HD Starcraft 2 Liquid.Sheth v vile.Illusion g3

[haqaan]

Illusion is a SICK terran player. needs his credit.

[LorracESP]

One of the best games I've ever seen!

Insane terran!

[Kenji314159]

I thought fungal growth was op. After seeing this game I think it's not after all.

[makomarquis]

one of the best games I've seen in a long time

[SlappyKun]

Cute is his fave word

[kenle304]

incredible game



[MrReachFails]

I feel like a good unit that sheth could have gotten in that situation would be banelings...

[Zack5659]

@youmadbrow U mad bro? And no, your the retard. EVERYONES saying eachothers OP when their just hella bad. QQ moar plz.

[midzata]

this was one of the most epic games i've seen so far

[LeninKGB]

He used the *all she wrote* expression three times in this particular game :) Outstanding battle btw!

[umadbrow]

Why is terran so retardedly OP? All terran players are babies who dont have a brain so

they rely on the OPness of terran

Why is terran so retardedly op? Even a dolphin can become a top esport contender while using terran

Why are ghosts so retardedly imbalanced? Terran players need to get hanged from the highest bridge

for not admitting the OPness of their race

[midzata]

@umadbrow what are you talking man. if zerg macro kicks in, they can remake their whole army in an instant. however illusion did great job preventing sheth in this so he won. in game 2 he didn't manage to do this so he lost

[edwood2121]

omg! this is 1 of the best game in 2011

[Fleshcut]

It's hard to believe that koreans are way better than this. Awesome game!

[xxAlexLoves182xx]

1 hp hatchery?? this is madness! THIS IS SPARTA

[21021]

best game ive ever seen

[ggmann13]

I would love to do what you do, with halo wars. i am very good at that game and know many others that are too. i wonder if that could catch on. with your blessing i could tape a small trial match and send it to you maybe? see what you think? maybe you can gimme broadcasting pointers too

[imgdumpprep]

illusion used to play zerg. YOU BETRAYED THE SWARM!

[onZlaught415]

now this game is epic



[Ellinobrasil]

I ve seen this game 7 times and is still incredible

[AGMUS1000]

the best starcraft 2 game that i ve seen  aweeesooomeee illusion!!

[swamkip]

"Macroing their asses off!" -HD

[MrJohnny56789]

god drops are stupid. its so easy and to start a drop and takes little effort or mental taxation. Defending against drops tho, especially multiple, requires a lot of mental energy. Terran is the mindfuck race.

[MrJohnny56789]

@MrJohnny56789 by the way, illusion just need 4 scvs with his thors on auto repai, and he would have won so much sooner.

[devinechin]

Poor Sheth, if he would have just gotten neural parasite, he would have won the game.

[Rymo780]

Great finale to a great series

[tibahendric]

24 dislikes?! Who? How?! Why?!?!?!

[LakkThereof]

loved it gg

[bumshka21]

Schools restarting... And hd casts a game of temptation to game

[keriozaraki]

This change at 11:27 disturbed me :S

[commentator89]

he isnt saying cute, but cool all the time, he is pronouncing it like cartman from southpark

[cerasoloquelnome]

did illusion just kill his own tank at 14:48 O_o

[HRCSJSUAMMAS]

Thors vs. broodlords... guess the result before watching. You'll be surprised.

[MrJohnny56789]

@HRCSJSUAMMAS because brood lords are massive, it actually spreads the splash out from the thors, since brood lords are usually next to each other. thors can eat BLs wihicjh is stupid

[aka6double0]

Intense!!



[lustri7]

you say cute one more time im unsubscribing

[buldren0101]

Lol "And a COMSAC will go down" I think you've been casting too many BW games, HD :P

[Corxism]

What does the "15 hatch" Mean? 

[jneb748]

@Corxism It means that the player made a hatchery (hatch) when they had 15 supply. Its a build order.

[M3t4lManiac]

wow

[TheGuyWhoPlaysMC]

did you do a bet to see how many times you could say "cute" in one video? ^^

[ossowiecki]

Very exciting match!

[one2many1030]

damn, no ghosts too

[GetOutsideMr]

Illusion is only 15 years old. LOL

[lyllbj753]

Micro their asses off = suitable comment for that situation.

[MrHappyGoFunTime]

THE BABIES ARE DYING

[radauman]

Awesome game, best commentator, as usual :)

[Frankey2310]

enable the health bars, plz

[ttop1969]

Epic match!

[canadiancanable]

this game proves terran is op...

[hiddejan13]

@canadiancanable

How? 

[Eskanasi]

23:32 I laughed a lot when he said "terrible terrible damage". Idk why just took me back to dustin browder. This was a sick game. Quite tense.

[AsianDuDeGuY]

my lord. that was one of the craziest games I've ever seen. his Drop Play is sooooooo goood, he did so much work with those Marine drops. and when he kept going Thors against Brood Lords which is bad and didn't bring out the Vikings, his Medivac Micro with them just made it look so good!

[jonluispena]

i hate how 15 like me but hes master while am silver D:

[PontFX]

I don't even play this game, I just love watching these.

[philipbtz]

Amazing skill from both players!!

[The2HighTempLar]

HESSS SMAAHHINNGG THEEESSEE TANKS**!!!**!!

o thats cute **

[xyzDucati]

A medivac full of marines, can easilly kills a hatchery. While and overlord full of zerglings, or even a équivalent pack of mutas never kills a command center :(

[smackyermomma]

Cute micro? You mean 'sick' micro

[HRCSJSUAMMAS]

@smackyermomma Or possibly 'clutch' micro.

[eldiagrama]

amaizing game



[MafinPhoenix]

HD, Thanks for all your replays this one is really grate. Hope you have more :-)

[1satyagraha1]

very cute

[ComeForPeace]

The Terran's micro is sick! While I m busy watching the epic battle in the middle, 2 of the zerg's base are gone. The first time I see that u can use medivac to bring Thor into the front line to deal with broodLords. Though sheath plays a good game, I think illusion out play Sheth in this game at least. BTW, the bunker wall in is so creative!

[JuglarEuskaldun]

I play terran and zerg and I am free to say that the marine drops and the turtle tanks is all a terran needs to defeat a zerg.

[SquallLionhart409]

@JuglarEuskaldun That may depend on your level. I tend to go up to 3+ bases and just deny deny deny the third. Infestor-ling handles drops quite well.

[josiah528]

good game. a little biased on the casting imo though.

[SilberPV]

this game really just shows how mules are way too good late game

[mpopa123]

What happened to "Terrible terrible damage!!" :(

[Sketches8]

I love your use of the word "CUTE"!

[wubbybutt]

19:13 "macroing their A.S.S.'es off"

HD was talkin about their Advanced Starcraft Strategies, not their bottoms

[MikulFBP1]

*Looks at video length* *Evil grin* *Grabs a bowl of popcorn* This is my life.

[AquitasVeritas08]

:o What an AWESOME game. Very well played by both players.

[sambakalle]

was that all that she wrote?

[metalusmc13]

more :-|

[coolca1028]

One of the best games I've seen... Wow.

[SUPRlZE]

amazing game

[BoJeNkka]

vary nice

[IAmPKo]

damn, what a great game



[FinioVega]

one ghost would have end the game MUCH sooner

[FinioVega]

all your hatcheries are belong us!

[MyHatIsGreen]

You really should hide the UI when you have this great battles.

[Polymeron]

That game was totally incredible. Even though my favorite race lost, I think this was a well-deserved win after a very hard-fought game.

Thanks HD for bringing that in, your casting was also top notch :)

[sagregory]

dat sim city...

[zyul64]

incredible game the best I've seen in a very long time, loved it!!!

[KLNDR]

It's a shame Illusion won this. Really goes to show how you can pump just three types of units all game long and win as Terran. Shame, shame.

[lousycactus]

@KLNDR You mean like how the zerg also pumped out broodlords, lings and infestors? Nice try though.

[CDsnuts000]

@KLNDR

what do you mean "it's a shame...." illusion harassed the hell out of sheth, and if it's not broken, don't fix it.

[itsaducati]

Good game!

[itsaducati]

Good Shit!

[sphinx7473]

good guy hero, i thought he was going to say good guy greg :p

[GUNDAMZHEN65]

Maybe it was just an "illusion" game. LOL

[Vulkanz]

Probably one of the best SC2 games I've seen.

[ummtone]

So glad you showed the APM at the end. That was one epic game!!!

[shibby2009]

"both armies clashing like nexus wars in the middle" :D

[waywatcher007]

Just WOW, such an awesome game!

[trbot]

I'm starting to think terran is easier in the lategame than zerg for one simple reason. The inject larva mechanic is harder to sustain for army replenishment than unit queuing for terran. If the z and t trade repeatedly, the chance that the z will screw up his reinforcing rises as time goes on, while the chance that the t will mess it up is extremely low, so long as his income stream is constant. he can just keep queuing up. sure, z can remax once, but after that it trails off.

[Qwerty48121]

@trbot mmmm nooooooooo... have you tried microing against banelings? for me personally yes macro is easier for terran *i guess* but splitting marines for banelings and micro sieges to focus fire banelings is very difficult to learn.

[trbot]

@Qwerty48121 I'm not saying terran is ez mode. I'm just saying that simple reinforcement given a stable resource platform makes it easy in the late game, even freeing you up to work with a new disposable, fixed army composition every few production cycles, so long as you set up your infrastructure intelligently.

[Minkazami]

@trbot if ur bad

[trbot]

@Minkazami Apparently enough pros (see: gsl) have been complaining about the difficulty of the inject larva mechanic for it to make a prominent appearance in Blizzard's most recent balance discussion. I've also noticed that some terran players have learned to abuse this recently, doing exactly what I described in my response to qwerty48121.

[InuzukaConor]

This game man ...

[jereth308]

At first I didn't care as much, but your new phrase "very cute" is getting to me :(

[used2less]

turn down the "Thats all she wrote" and "cute" counts pls

[maxscorpionmax]

At 6:57 , Illusion cancels +1 Attack and starts it back from the beginning xD

[MrSpacepeet]

HD, Thanks for choosing this amazing game to also show off some of your better casting skills! Great game, great cast, happy holidays!!! :-)

[jasdaman2]

this game was almost as good as drg vs mma g7

[feararchetype]

Dear lord... I like HD's casts and all... But I'm going to unsubscribe if I see 2 more casts with good tactics being called 'Cute'...

[TheKiwi251000]

these drops where way to strong...

[whipydip99]

I love how marines counter tier 3 units

[F10F11hm]

@whipydip99 I love how Zerglings counter Marines (Tier 1), Tanks (T2) and Thors (T3).

I also love Fungal Growth spam taking no skill and just melting wave after wave of Terran forces. The most OP spell in the game. Undodgeable Psi Storm.

[stung12]

terran OP Zerg OP toss ftw

[Fingulfin]

Might want to lay off the word "cute" HD xD

[ChiiN0XL]

@Fingulfin Thats like telling Maximus Black not to say BOUSE.

[TheBioethicist]

Hellions, Vikings, and Thors, Oh my!

[rwheeler9020]

Its not very cute that you keep using the word cute.

[SupportShotgun]

Damn illusion is fucking cool

[morrischen]

@4:15 actually gonna build a bunker here. totally outside the range of the hatchery. very cute.

[jrmwow]

i dun think either race is UP/OP just that shakuraus is slight T favoured

[raff1021]

The game is fairly balanced, but Terrans are defiantly the strongest race atm.

[Encathar]

wow, one of the best games in a long time, indeed! can't wait to see, how sc2 is going to evolve...

[SlimChance718]

hd stop saying "cute" so much u sound gay unless u are...

[TheoryDT]

why is he saying cute so damn much, HD has lost it in SCII commentary. Totalbiscuit FTW!>

[hannuborne]

OMFG...fucking sick micro from BOTH players!!!

[Rathmysphs]

HE'S GETTING JIGGY WITH THE DROPS LIKE IT'S 1996! isn't HD only 24-26?

[shaggmeister]

this game pissed me off

[s3177000]

TERRAN WINS. FUCKING OP NOOB............. CANT WAIT 4 NEXT PATCH, SAY BYE NOOB TERRAN PLAYERS^^

[stefangeibler]

awesome game! =)

[ProVODs]

Just beautiful play from Illusion! Reminds me a lot of DRG vs MMA in the bliz cup finals

[TheRiass]

Wow amazing

[Maxievelli]

wow, 30 minute game, down to the wire and still all anyone does is cry about balance, this game shows just how balanced the game is, if sheth had gotten roaches or mutas and a few less broodlords and infestors he probably would have been very well off, as it is he had a spellcaster/siege unit army that he wielded very effectively, but it couldn't beat illusions neat little tricks and standard composition

[Khono]

OMFG 1 HP!!!!

[Suicider12]

Marines aren't the best units in the game. Right.

[gshaul420]

the thor upgrade for the cannons im not sure what they're called but i think it would be a great idea to drop thors use the special abillity and take on a hatch very easily

[realprogrammer]

wow, Such an amazing game, totally unexpected.

[Kyryt2002]

Extra Game!!!

[Kangoo9]

plz remove terran race in next patch, too much imbalance !!

[Kayyyleb]

@Kangoo9

Terran played perfectly and still barely won. Stop crying about balance.

[qwas12348gr5]

@Kangoo9 You're joking, right? Take away a whole race? You must be like 8 years old, retard.

[thetiger929]

this game is the reason sc2 will become huge in the pro scene. imagine how much publicicty it will get if a game like this happened in a mlg final??

[NovemberAlphaTango]

Cute may be a "sort of a common word in Starcraft", but I've been watching a lot of replays and this is the first time I've heard it more than once and HD used it like a dozen times across these three videos. It's the word-of-the-day!

[jackhong1981]

my goodness..... One of the best sc2 game ever...

[edwardcharles]

This is one of the best games I've ever watched!!!

[NakkiJaKeppi]

Illusion. He is cute... nuff said.

[Hetzish]

Imo this series proves a few things:

1. Skipping muta's vs Terran cannot be compensated for by infestors

2. Late game zerg army composition < mid game Terran army composition

3. Reason for 2: 3-3 marines with medics

[josiah528]

@Hetzish don't agree with #2 at all. In a straight up fight sheth wins. illusion did the right thing and didn't engage sheth's army directly but did little drops which did way more damage then sheth should've aloud. Eventually crippling sheth's eco.

[qwas12348gr5]

Terran isn't overpowered, but it's way easiar to play than zerg.

[roachm]

@qwas12348gr5 I wouldn't say 'way' easier, I'd save that for protoss haha.

[qwas12348gr5]

@roachm

Nope, Terran is easiar lol. You don't have to remember to chrono boost, nor are there any early game casters (I'm talking about sentries) that require a decent amount of micro to use. And it's in the campaign, which makes it a tiny bit easiar for noobs that start off with the campaign.

[jigadude24]

@qwas12348gr5 terran has to remember mules, and early game sentries could win the game

[qwas12348gr5]

@jigadude24

Mules aren't hard to remember, considering they cost 50 energy (along with extra supply and scans) meaning that you don't have to do it very often, as opposed to chrono boosts which you have to remember to do all the time. Not to mention mules aren't as much of a game changer as chrono boost. If you didn't use mules at all, it would only make about a 5-15% difference in your economy, which is still a lot, but not chrono boosting would ruin the entire game for you.

[jas3point14]

@qwas12348gr5 One problem with what you said is mules only make about a 5-15% difference in economy. Mules carry 30 minerals while scv's carry 5 (1 mule = 6 scv's). With 8 mineral patches per base and "optimal" mining at 3 scv's per patch that's only 24 scv's. Meaning mules make a 25% gain in economy. Considering players often upgrade to orbital command when they only have about 15-18 scv's and late game they have more orbitals than mining bases it's easy for mules to make a 33-50% increase.

[qwas12348gr5]

@jas3point14

Okay, let's assume they can make a 50% difference, which, putting all logic aside, is maybe overdoing it a bit (?). My point is, thy're easy to remember as you don't need to call them down as much, and you'll be spending a ton of that energy on scans.

Dude, believe me when I say I actually think Terran is the easiest to play. I have no reason to lie and if I thought otherwise I would simply admit it, this isn't a debate where I'm given my argument.

[jigadude24]

@qwas12348gr5 lol considering how fast protoss can get upgrades with chrono boost, and chrono boost isn't hard to use, if you have extra chrono boost just use it on your warp gates or nexus lol

not hard?~

[qwas12348gr5]

@jigadude24

"If you have extra chrono boost..."

The thing is, for every bit of extra chrono boost you have, you're behind in the game that much more. Protoss is only not underpowered if you use your chrono boost well.

[Invin]

I think this was one of the best casts HD has ever done. That was intense all the way through.

[Bonery123]

Hey HD, heard you learned a new word. That's cute

[vakfikebirboza]

Wicked, wicked game! İllusion deserved it since he destroyed like 4 hatcheries with 8man marine squads. Beastly macro of sheth and broodlords dragged it tho. Lol at illu winning the game with marines. "broodlords and infestors?CREATE MORE MARINES!" about the mech, hellions were brilliant, thors plain stupid

[jma7killa]

where are the mutas at???? (right now at 11:44) i think that was a mistake by sheth he could use them to stop the drops which are ultimately costing him the game and overrun the massive force of medivacs

[ShadyForce4]

i still feel like he shouldve went for ultras :(

[REDRAGON12345]

HD, enough with the "cute" so freakin annoying

[UggsMilne]

game watched, comments read , might have to watch again :)

[FennecFoxxx]

Say "cute" again. Say "cute" again. I dare you. I double-dare you, motherfucker. Say "cute" one more goddamn time.

[APLV]

Call his micro cute again. I DARE YOU, I DOUBLE DARE YOU MOTHER FUCKER!

[elio11111]

If anyone says Terran is OP after seeing this, then you're a douchebag. Illusion worked his ASS off for that game. He took advantage of all the timing attacks he could. Great job.
