  • Let's see.. there is an army of ground attacking units. Yeah he definitely needs ROACH SPEED. Also the roaches didn't have view of the high ground in the middle. MKP could've abused that a lot more. I know it's easy to see the flaws when watching, not so easy when playing, but mutas should've been the first thing that came to mind really.

  • Omg, so bad of the zerg player... Just turtle with spines, and then go to fast mutas... Then he would killed or take advantage over the terran...

  • I am not really sure why he didn't just take 10 reapers and kill the hatch. They do 30 vs buildings, so 10 of them could 5 shot the hatchery. Screw the drones, just take out the hatch with a couple of fly-byes. Better yet, send 10 from the side to take out the main hatch with queue attack, and hassle the natural to distract Check. Even 2-3 queens would take a while to kill them. I'm pretty sure you could have it down in 2 waves.

  • I'm crying for blue flame!!!

  • @alquiora blue flame would have been absolutely useless as it only affects light units and roaches are not

  • @davBIGHOUSE well doesn't blue flame add 5 damage against non-light units?

  • @davBIGHOUSE oh nvm you're right. I got the facts wrong. =)

  • where are the mutas !?! !?!

  • most interesting n creative game at least for recently, no standard build = epic

  • why the hell didnt' check try for mutas

  • i almost crapped myself when i saw all those lings melt to the first push.

  • go go marineking

  • he should have honestly went with infestors, 1 fungal on the clumped up army like that ll allow bane to kill of of it, or 3 fungals would kill the entire thing

  • @tomk887 How could he afford infestationpit? By holding off the initial agression with ling? all his gas went to roaches there was NO WAY he was ever getting infestor that game.

  • @tomk887 ... he could have held it off with more spines instead of roach then went infest,if what you r saying is true then every terran would use this build in pro games but they dont,the fact that he didnt have lings to see what was happening costed him. with more spine he wont need tht many roaches

  • WTF, 10 reapers do 300 damage to a building in one round of attack, and he had over 24 - took down the rocks in 4 rounds. He just needed to shoot the baneling nest and hatchery and make 2-4 marauders in bunkers just for home defense and he would have won 5 minutes earlier.

  • 5:46 an scv comes in yells "for sparta!" and then DRILLS THE QUEEN

  • LOVE IT!!!

  • i love seeing some freshness in the tactics :) perhaps a couple of tanks wouldn't hurt. or marauders :)

  • That was cruel. Terran could have and should have gone marauderes to counter roaches once he had a group of 6 or so reapers, and should have gone blue flame as well. Would've got him such an easier and faster win. But I guess he was just mocking the z by saying: I'll stick with the units for which you are building the perfect counter unit already, and I'll still win.

  • If Marine King had transitioned to Marauders it would have been immediately over. That was just lame after a while.

  • sooo balanced game ... imba mules and nice game rules... its like win with lings vs banelings with avarage micro... so lame game

  • Comment removed

  • HD you should rap.

  • unprecedented....ive never seen any player do this and pull it off

  • CheckPrime holding on very well there.

  • reminds me of bratok vs Nestea who incorporated ravens with the hellion reaper combo and won very impressive

  • Such horrible decision making! Reapers & Helions against Roaches?! Terrible! Haha :D

  • Comment removed

  • Keep raping you raipers lol

  • Comment removed

  • xD i think if marineking transitioned into something to counter those roaches he could have ended the game much faster but i still liked it

  • ReaperKingPrime

  • MarineKing is exciting to watch!

  • I wonder how that would look in HotS with battle helions!

  • 5:25 does he say "Rapers"? anyone?

  • @lisilamw The grammar police is giving you a ticket for not putting the question mark in the quotation marks

    "Rapers"? --> "Rapers?"

  • I'm 16 minutes in and still no blue flame Hellions. I don't get it.

  • @TheNighthawk00 Blueflame is not necessary so why get it? not like light units arent dying fast enough. MKP is dealing with roachs and banelings here which dont take additional damage from blueflames, better spend the money on more reapers and infantry upgrades.

  • he could have just gunned the structures down

    

  • Well thats something I've never seen before...

  • Finally some Reapers are relieved of service!

  • This Game was Insane.

  • lol marineking is SUCH a troll.. he coulda ended it sooo quickly by transitioning into just maruader helion but he wanted to humiliate checkprime =-D

  • I like that the original scouting overlord was allowed to live in MKP's base the entire game

  • great another tvz....

  • 12:38 OMG put those Reapers on the high ground and have em just snipe those roaches while they chase down those helions..

  • @armst012 I was thinking the same thing

  • infestors, mutas ....

  • Mutas or Burrowed Banelings would have worked. Especially the latter.

  • way epic, I love MKP

  • MarineKingPrime you're my new hero.  Mass Reaper play FTW

  • Reapers and hellions...

    Feels like diablo pwnage

  • 12:50 that was the most amazing spread i've ever seen O_o

  • >_< terran op! ... even breaking the weaknesses and strong against units T_T

    noooo!

  • he never even had blue flame

  • No offense to HD, but the massive worker lost in the beginning was game over already, there wasn't no "get roach speed, get burrow baneling" and most certainly none of the other comments "get mutas or infestors". there isn't he resource available for that with such significant losses that early... Reminds me of the people who say like: well toss should just get colossus to deal with the early stim pushes....

    Check of course is by no means a bad play to anyone who thinks he is....

  • are you kidding? i could have beaten them. they clearly arent trying, they dont even counter..

  • Marauders.

  • this zerg never heard of mutas.... or infestors...

  • mutas is a good idea, but with the preasure MKP put on Check, he wouldn't make it to mutas

  • clearly a joke match

  • MKP, playing like.... a kitty. Lickin' his food. Meow.

  • So let me get this straight, the Terran beat the Zerg using Zerg tactics - speed, outnumbering and having more bases... correct?

  • @Kaos77Kisame Yes, mind boggling aint it o.o

  • @Kaos77Kisame Just another day in Korea.

  • Just imagine if he had gotten blue flame!!! :-p :-)

  • best game evaaaa

  • 5:25 hellions and rapers?? :))

  • holy shit freds looking old lol

  • reminds me of a player in SC 1 when mass vultures owned mass dragoons with normal atk... i forgot his name

  • lol what a ridiculous game. i feel like these games there has been some kind of agreement where the units they can produce are limited.

  • Ahhhhh... Now I understand why he chose Reapers! 16:40 - MKP demonstrates that speed Reaper splitting is much easier than Marine splitting (plus, your Reapers don't lose HP for Stim and they already do insane DPS without it).

    New name suggestions for MKP: ReaperKingPrime.WE or TrollKingPrime.WE. He simply can't be playing seriously with the last 2 builds he did! He already qualified for the tournament for which the winner gains access to.

  • .... oh my gosh!

  • i cant tell if this is the most imbalance thing iv ever seen, or if this is super innovative and an evolution of some sort in tvz

  • i dont understand why he didnt make marauders..

  • I felt like this was a fungame. Like noob against pro!

  • red won

  • terran op

  • oh god. Now he's playing Terran like a Zerg. It just ain't right seeing a 5 base terran vs a 2 base zerg.

  • HD mixes hellions and reapers so much this game its annoying

  • yeah... two words... MUTA... LISKS

  • howcome hd cast this game twice?

  • 9:40 'reducing his ability to die' LOL it's nice to watch HD butcher english every so often

  • apm... too maximum! howcome he didnt at least get blue flame given how many hellions he kept making?

  • Guys, this is Check.. I don't think he DIDN'T think about Mutas

    Of course it would punish the investment made into MKP's army comp, but he has to invest in a Lair AND spire..

    The time and resources it'd take would've left a HUGE opening in his defense, and the game probably would've ended just as Check were vulnerable..

  • good game to be an overlord

  • koreans are FUCKING CRAZY.

  • Mutas, anybody? 

  • @LXWiseman he couldn't afford them too many drones losses muta's are too expensive then, maybe if he got a roach warren earlier

  • Against a reaper heavy army, I really think carapace upgrades would have been a better investment for the roaches than attack damage. +1 carapace cuts 20% off their damage, whereas you'll always need 3 shots to kill a reaper with a roach.

  • very nice, never seen this b4

  • 1:00 epic voice crack

  • MKP doing something fucking stupid and winning.. nothing new here folks. Just MKP showing everyone he dont give a fuck about hard counters

  • perhaps a transition into mutas?

  • mutas

    

  • @theboo10193 learn how to actually play instead of believing you can beat a pro player

  • @theboo10193

    Mutas? really? the resources spent alone could have killed Check immediately, let alone the 100 second build time of the spire and the gas needed to build mutas which could have been spent on roaches/banelings. Mutas need to be in numbers to be effective, and to get them in numbers you need resources. With drones dying left and right and larvae spent to build more units to defend do you so naively think that he can have enough money and time actually get enough mutas to defend?

  • @theboo10193 Even if he has mutas, MKP can start to build marines and thors and get combat shield+stimpack by simply switching the add-ons between the factories and the barracks.

  • @theboo10193 2 base no drones mutas?

  • @theboo10193 .......

  • @theboo10193 *Spire gets planted down* *10 Reapers run up and one shot it* GG

  • so why not muta?

  • @kenseisato1989 No time+no resources for mutas, by the time mutas are out he's be dead. He needs gas for mutas which is better spent on roaches and banelings. Plus MKP can simply switch add-ons to begin marine/thor production while upgrading stim/combat shield, or just the more conventional marine/tank. Mutas are dead, problem solved.

  • @quizzisation

    oohh ok cool. thanks for explaining ^-^b

  • Dat micro...

  • You know what beats MKP's build? 1 muta

  • sexy

  • MarineKing is my FirebatHero

  • MKP was doing Funday Monday

  • 12:06 helions and reapers? no problem

    helions, reapers and six SCVs!? GET DA FUCK OTTA THAR!

  • 15:26

    they can just run away...

    they can just run away...

    they don't even need to run away...

    hahahahhaahahahaahh

  • transition into marauders would've cut the game time by half

  • Comment removed

  • um why didnt he just get air?

  • a few marauders would've been so good against roaches

  • cheese

  • Oh its HD...yea no

  • where are the mutalisks?

  • @sean1290

    If he went for mutalisk he would have been killed immediately, the resources and time involved is just too much for Check.

  • CheckPrimes logic - Roaches keep dying, BUILD MORE ROACHES

    What is actually the most obvious counter to the army - Mutalisks

  • @Babeman1

    if he had waited for mutas to come out his base would have died before he could get any

  • HD - "Im just wondering what would work against hellions and reapers.. maybe burrowed banelings"

    How about fucking mutalisks lol the army can't shoot up, thats the most direct counter you can get

  • beautiful split, 16:52

  • There are a lot of 'What ifs' for Check, like what if he got a spire or infestors or OL drops, but generally builds like this will just make a player lose focus, instead completely driven by "I HAVE TO SURVIVE", which explains his reliance on roaches... in addition, MKP was killing a massive amount of drones, making it pretty hard to sustain something like mutalisks, and MKP could have just as easily made marines out of the 9 or so barracks he had by the end. Amazing play by MKP, very creative.

  • Just thought of something, what if check researched overlord drop and had overlords spread through out the natural with banelings inside them??. That would catch the ball of Reapers off guard and completely destroy MKP

  • reaperking prime

  • Errrrrrrrrrrrm. Mutas?

  • i can't tell you how many times i've heard "if it werent for the gaping hole..."

  • zerg should ve gone mutalisks but they obviously agreed to play oddly

  • is getting Mutas sucha complex idea?!

  • @Urliamo It is actually,

    He doesn't have time/resources to get mutas, by the time mutas are out he's dead. Better spend that ton of gas needed to get mutas to roaches or banelings.

    MKP has tech lab rax and reactor factories, switch add-ons and start marine/thor production+combat shield/stim upgrades=dead mutas.

  • @quizzisation nah...MKP just wanna have sth special...no 3Ms...just his favourite units all over the map...he even let the OL 'standing' in the air, dont even give a damn with it though...just naked!

  • @quizzisation Check already had Lair. Even 3-4 mutas would be able to stop the attacks.

  • @dijpak

    3-4 mutas+spire=600 minerals and gas + 133 seconds of spire/muta build time, which is better spent on roach/baneling, or even infestor.

    And let's not forget MKP can easily switch to marine thor production with the infrastructure he has=dead mutas

    And 3-4 mutas are definitely not enough to kill all the reapers and hellions before all your drones are dead.

  • just one word MUTAS!

  • @Soma31Cruz

    The problem is that lings get deimated, 1 or 2 spines isn't sufficient to cover all the space (espeicially with d8 charges,) so you have to defend with roaches. You have to defend your main, natural and the spire (cause d8 charges kills that really fast to.)

    2 base worth of gas doesn't support roach + muta very well at all. You'd get like 3 mutas then die to a marine timing attack (since he has 8 rax or whatever)

  • 5:25 helions and rapers.....

  • wow

  • WHy didnt he go marauders?

  • lawl he just prouve to me that every unit are imba.if reapers can frenking kill roaches im scrude

  • guys, guys, really dont argue on what should someone have done, or not. NOT one of us could pulled thatt reaper play against roaches on so many places. It was just incredible. They are soooo good players. Justs watch, enjoy, and shut the fuck up.

  • Why no Infestors or Mutas from Check? Not enough of an economy going to make the switch?

  • @gasparnq he had to keep getting roaches or else he would have nothing to stop his drones from going splat

  • how stupid are all these people asking why they didnt build air or marauders lol... clearly they are team mates playing a game for fun.... roach baneling vs reaper hellion

  • @TheAcehd no, this is a tournament. stupid.

  • @leGianflavio you think he doesnt know how to press the d button.stupid.

  • @TheAcehd ....when did i say he doesn't know how to press the D button?

    you're saying its a game for fun when it's actually a tournament, shut up if you don't know what you're talking about.

  • @leGianflavio how stupid can you get, clearly they just agreed to play like this, please go /wrists dumb fuck

  • @TheAcehd .............they "clearly" agreed to play like this? check was playing normal, and mkp is known for odd builds like this, stfu you obviously dont know shit.

    plus, why would you "agree" to play in a certain way in a fucking tournament, holy shit how dumb can you be?

  • @leGianflavio You're just talking out of your ass. This is just inter-clan metagaming and experimentation. Look at any of the BW inter-team games, they're all unconventional as hell.

    Lol. Tournament? What tournament is this? Provide a TL link of the league or shut the fuck up.

  • @Strand0410 & who the fuck are you? mind your own fucking business mother fucker, go be a nerd somewhere else fapping to anime and shit. peace.

  • @leGianflavio Lol. Someone who was just proven wrong beyond all reasonable doubt now backing off and throwing baseless insults against anonymous people on the internet so he can feel he walks away from this 'argument' with some shred of dignity.

    How about you do some fucking research next time before you post bullshit and you won't be in such an emasculating position, grasping at straws. "Go be a nerd somewhere else" - YOU initiated a discussion on a videogame thread.

  • Comment removed

  • @Strand0410

    nice way of proving me wrong "beyond all reasonable doubt" btw.

    i understand if you don't write back LOL

  • @Strand0410 alright, just so you feel dumb as FUCK, & so you can perhaps, next time, mind your own damn business:

    go to game 1 and go to 3:42 , HD clearly says "by the way this IS from a tournament"

    so... how about YOU go do some fucking research before you post bullshit and you won't be in such an emasculating position.

    wanna walk away from this argument with some shred of dignity now?

    LOL, fucking retarded trolls nowadays, if you're gonna try to start an argument, do it right.

  • @leGianflavio HD (by his own admission) makes mistakes all the goddamn time. Look at his channel, he commentates games given to him by the community, and often doesn't know who the players are or the source of the game. Apparently half his games are from 'tournaments', in this very series he didn't even know Thors did 2x attacks. Stop clutching at straws by what ONE guy said and try to find a Team Liquid link to this so-called 'tounrmanent', it doesn't exist dipshit.

  • @Strand0410 HAHAHA now try blaming it on HD, stfu you've been proven wrong. just back out. LOL, fucking retard.

    and he just sucks at math, nothing wrong with that.

    and i'm not going to team liquid to find ONE link just for some random douchebag on the internet that clearly has no idea what he's talking about, now go on... keep being a fail of a troll somewhere else.

  • @leGianflavio HD has the humility to admit his mistakes and knows that he's often misinformed when it comes to user-submitted replays. You're desperately holding onto one quote from a video that was made entirely without context to prop up your argument so you won't look like an idiot, despite the fact that everyone who does read your little meltdown can see you're wrong. TL provides stats for all tournaments, match-ups, personal statistics and guess what? Not a single entry for this game.

  • @Strand0410 it's fine to be wrong troll. it's okay. just walk away.... shoo shoo.

  • @leGianflavio YOU sir, are the troll.

    Shoo yourself

    Strand is the better man here (not to mention smarter)

  • @russiankgbagent9 looking at your channel, and the comments... you're the biggest troll LOL.

    and smarter? i dont think so. wanna learn about my education? PM me. i hate publicly bragging.

    but since you can't mind your own business either.... shoo shoo russian. No one asked you to be born or to reply to me :) byee.

  • @leGianflavio Nice ad hominem attack that has no basis on this discussion. Trust someone who has literally no other avenues, to revert to attacking others personally instead of their position. He's a troll? I don't think you even know the meaning of the word. I refuse to believe someone who types as you do has anything beyond a high school education.

    Again with "Mind your own business," obviously people on the losing end don't want others jumping in to have it rubbed in their face.

  • @Strand0410 ......this is the internet, i don't need to type like i would do for an essay. Typing cleverly doesn't mean you're clever; as a matter of fact, by the way you're typing, it seems you're "trying too hard" or you're just a nerd at heart. I only write/type like that when i need to, not all the time as you appear to do.

    so don't judge a book by its cover.

    if you wanna keep on, be my guest. Unlike you, i have a life and the e-mails i get from you are annoying. good day fag

  • @leGianflavio "good day fag" Homophobia. Always the mark of the enlightened man! See, in the real world people talk and type because there are minimum standards of professionalism, something I doubt you understand. I see you've given up all pretence of even continuing your original line of thought and instead crawl away like a coward who can't admit error when it's right there in his face.

  • @Strand0410 considering my cousin is gay, i'm not homophobic. and can't admit error?

    clearly you don't have something to prove this is NOT from a tournament except you can't find it-- and i dont have something to prove this IS from a tournament except HD's words.

    so this is a pretty pointless argument.

  • @leGianflavio You're still on about this? FYI: Having a gay cousin or black friend doesn't give you a license you say whatever you want. Have the humility to admit that you're wrong and we can just leave it be. There's a difference between "you can't find it" on TL and "there's no record of it ever being played in a tournament", because the pool of played matches is small and can very easily be found by match-up, team and player. This is not there, thus it's not a league game.
