MaximusBlack Quest To Grand Master 6

[An2quamaraN]

Yeah...NA ladder...in EU that zerg would be in gold if he was lucky...

[andrzejr82]

Wow, Jeff you got so much better indeed! I remember you dreading the Zerg, and now you won so easily. And it seems to me like you talk as you play much more than you used to. Great job, game- and commentary-wise! :-)

[jshenefelt]

I'm a zerg player, and I hate seeing them lose...but damn that was a sweet game. you deserved the victory. GG

[jshenefelt]

Mr Black.

After you get to GM, you should totally do a "Quest to MLG"

[1991jmoney]

Dude you should play Combatex again lol

[kaiawase]

good play, you could also try using this with a warp prism as well so you can make this play even if they scout and deny that pylon. Very well timed double pronged attack.

[WeItenspinner]

@kaiawase

Öhm, no. There is no Robo. Robo plus Warp Prism would be more expensive and too late.

[thehipyman]

im a silver zerg player and as this really helps me as my ZvP is my weakest suit, can you do some videos when you run down some strategies you would use as any race? Thumbs up so he can see :) i think many people would like this also

[88naka]

Jeff when you get 2 zeas you should grab that watchtower.

[lolmdrify]

sick  gameplan. wp Jeff

[matalac100]

im forced to watch tis ep cause he said he'd ruin it in ep 7

[roxzman07]

That game looked like it went smooth as hell. You knew everything he was gonna do. That was epic.

[CaveGent]

A "gg wp". You never see that. Usually it's "Protoss are so op I might as well have quit right at the begining".

Protoss are a little broken, but that's besides the point.

[robint1er]

nice do that more often !!

[sammurai1]

cheeeeesyyyyyyyyyyyy ;)

[0l234567]

If your not pro, what does pro look like 0.o

[OriginalityImpaired]

@0l234567

To the untrained eye?

Magic.

[martinarcand1]

That was a nice win. Though "only top 8 diamond" is kind of a douchy comment :D That was you like 3 weeks ago :D

[WARkenflo]

how the hell do I get my wins AND losses to show? all I see are points and wins for me

[jobog88]

@WARkenflo you only get to see your losses in masters league and above.

[OriginalityImpaired]

@WARkenflo

If you're below Masters and really want to know you have to count for yourself unfortunately.

[Beibyface]

WP bro

[bluefire4000]

So is this a third account now? Or did they just add the xSix to your old account?

[aznsensation520]

@bluefire4000 namechange

[Lermasd]

I like this "old school" style alot more. Due to the superiour quality and maybe bit more in-depth and concentrated commentary.

[Grahckheuhl]

@Lermasd

Thank you so much for having a voice of truth.

[datboikevin]

1:30 in the morning? the day just started!

[ca67100]

lots of crawno here

[TyTyGaming]

hahaha 7:41 he chronos his cyber core

[TheRemix714]

Are we there Yet



[Metallicaxyx]

also jeff is way better than me at this game, better than i ever will be but i think in the late mid game against protoss and zerg he needs to build another robo facility to double produce immortals or collossi cause i see his toss opponents doin that and they usually win cause they have more of the power units. and it helps with the mass roach that zergs usually do. but jeff ur awesome and i love watching u play

[Metallicaxyx]

anyone notice how the people in the "i dont smoke because..." adds look like they do lots of crystal meth?

[sheepwshotguns]

wp, but i dont like the position on those gateways. later on if the initial attack fails you kinda block your stalkers from defending behind your wall.

[chaosforce82]

somuch cheese

[laziboi72]

how did the zerg let that pylon live?

shows that all players can make mistakes all the way up to GM :)

[TheNighthawk00]

I'm European and if I had to believe my fellow continentals NA Grand Master is about Gold league in Europe. No truly, that's how it is ^^

[Wardhogje]

GG, beautiful play, forcefields and your plan was great!

[Nasherize]

I'm diamond EU and i think that im kinda Master NA level, but still MaximusBlack is still a BOUSE.

[LaZodiac]

I've got a question Maximus. Does Chrono recharge a Warpgate faster?

[Tankband01]

@LaZodiac it does

[kingkingking37]

@LaZodiac yeah it does

[wrinkes]

@LaZodiac yeah it does, it also increases the rate they transform into warpgates too... not like thats really useful :P

[Mun885]

Lol, just watched whole game. It's just awesome! Perfect strategy. Jeff is making serious progress. GJ!

[TheAntiquated]

Am I missing something? But why did Jeff go for gateway before nexus?

[Mun885]

Jeff's getting upgrades, can you realize that?! Also he's getting it so quickly. Serious progress, no irony.

[advkow]

Apprecaite some channel love. Can't always watch the stream, though I do love it.

[Rko453]

How can I get a EU ladder account to prove to all those assholes that they arent as good as they think they are

[AdvocatusMortis]

@Rko453 sry bro, but up to diamond NA players are worse (personal experience)

[Rko453]

@AdvocatusMortis Im top 10 master

[AdvocatusMortis]

@Rko453 So? I said up to diamond. The rest I don't know.

[pizzamovies]

@AdvocatusMortis To be honest, the reason why NA players are considered "worse" is not because they actually are.

It's because of all the little kids or the casual people that play for fun, which there's nothing wrong with. It's just they bring the average down with them.

[AdvocatusMortis]

@pizzamovies But here in the EU people are also playing casually o.O We are not like fanaticsxD

[iknowbetter]

@AdvocatusMortis the only reason people (and by people, I mean pros) say the EU ladder is better is because there are more top tier pros in EU, mainly because when you have a few good players in NA, most top EU players are the former WC3 players,used to practice a lot and have strong work ethics. As such, the low tier quality (mid master and bellow) of the players in both servers is pretty much the same, and the difference is felt only if you were top tier in NA, and decide to go on EU.

[AdvocatusMortis]

@iknowbetter I'm only diamond as I said, so I have no idea:D

But in League of Legends it's the same, NA server was steamrolled by my friends, and now North/Eastern EU server is pretty hard sometimes. But I don't want to argue about NA or EU is better or something. So peace out bros:P

[iknowbetter]

@AdvocatusMortis nono i'm not here to start a shitstorm either lol.I'm just writing pretty much what pros are already saying on that subject, and what I myself experienced (i was low master in europe, still am a low master in america, or maybe did I get worse too lol)

[AdvocatusMortis]

@iknowbetter Well, I think I also need to improve a bit, to say more accurate opinions about the players:P

[pizzamovies]

@AdvocatusMortis I'm not saying that, but there are a helluva lot more in NA. Nothin' wrong with it, I consider myself to be a casual as well. ;P

[AdvocatusMortis]

@pizzamovies Oh, ok, btw I think I got your point:D

[TheVaulkhar]

He is holding his own up in masters and isn't dropping too low as far as i can tell, takes time but with him being so surrounded by top top players and the support network he now has is bound to take a very positive affect on his game. Top 8 masters here we go!

[MrTjeezes]

Beautiful play, Jeff!

[MrDefeatist]

sick forcefield usage on the mineral line. I gotta rememeber that one.

[evilswat]

@Direraven

[2JoeStudios]

i can't even believe he got to masters playing that badly....

respect to his ambition though

[CrazyHand196]

@2JoeStudios

hes done better

but he is good

[Ph4n0x]

acquire additional hotkeys, Jeff.

[kristof007]

That was a really solid game. Well played!

[eminem50centxzibit]

I hope that's the only thing their moulding.

[KannmirEgalsein]

JEFF, Y U NO PLAY SHOWMATCH VS HD?

[Franchan10]

If your weakness is middle game why not stop the fast wins and go for a solid middle to improve?

[Direraven]

So he just made a third account and it already has 405 games on it? *confused*

[SirMutton1]

@Direraven No, he had a free name change on his "HellOnEarth" account.

[Direraven]

@SirMutton1 I didn't know you could do that... Is it earned or can anybody do it or something else?

[Leeroooy]

@Direraven he changed the name of his old acc

[suggipuss]

@Direraven

it is the HellOnEarth account.. he simply changed his name to xSixMaximus

[Astral96]

@suggipuss Ya it is, like he said he is in a team so he changed his name for xSixMaximus but it was HellOnHearth

[dankars0stucieris]

3 min. jeff is explaining the forge bild - makes no sense at all :D playing SC2 and cometating is hard..

[Ovni121]

Nice game, I'm not a pro but I see that you really improved.

[MrFrederiktorp]

Lol. The URL is on fire

[MindofScience3]

You belong in top 50 Masters right now since your W/L is basically 1. Congrats on masters, but you need to seriously up your game for GM. Hope you get there in a few months.

[Maganyos]

gg - I want to see a game where you don't get that ninja pylon off and have to go further to the macro.

[halofornoobs93]

EU players love to toot their own horns quite often. They make all the claims they want because they know that they don't have to back them up. Look at the few games out there where players of different leagues go at it and you will notice that it is usually pretty even. Korean players are the best hands down. This is why i don't like the locked regions. They can run their mouths all they want because they know that no one is going to come and prove them wrong.

[Conn92]

@halofornoobs93 I'm about a silver terran by EU standards, I'm a diamond terran on NA. If any diamond or low/mid masters NA players would like to custom to aid to disproving the claims people make about the skill levels I'd be happy for the practice.

[Masterofnerf98]

What mape was this? And well played

[mareksmolny]

speaking of molding ...........

[danieldjr412]

Holy shit. Putty in your hands. Well played.

[TheStealthydude]

*insert VERY GENERIC COMMENT OF HOW EU>NA SERVERS here*

[riffetsork]

You've gotten real good! I remember you clicking everything with your mouse! :D

[FaIlHiGH]

And that kids, is why you always scout your base, even if it's a little less mine time because you never know if a meddling rock is there, just chillin' all up in your crib. Great game and definitely well played.

[bakedspade]

First its 'EU is better than Na' on the stream and now it's wormed its way over into the YouTube comments. Wouldn't be surprised if it was the same people. Seriously you all need to grow up.

[TheStealthydude]

@bakedspade Personally I am getting fucking sick of it too.

[bakedspade]

@TheStealthydude Yeah one player may be better than another but there's no difference between EU/NA. What does it matter Korea are better than all of us anyway ha

[1XxXCursedXxX1]

US has the best Zergs overal. EU has the best Protosses overal. KR has the best Terran's overal... I wish i was Korean.

[Dauglashalfve]

@1XxXCursedXxX1 srsly? Are you kidding? Korea have the best players of all races overall :P

US only has Idra as a good zerg and he's not THAT good, compared too someone like Leenock or nestea he's nothing. For all races it goes Korea>EU>US. Why there are more and better pro players in EU than the US, I have no idea.

[1XxXCursedXxX1]

@Dauglashalfve I was talking about overal results. Not about only the Pro scene. :)

[musmas00]

NA is soooo much easier then EU...

[hordeons]

@musmas00 yep, NA is easier, who cares, I'm EU top diamond and I'm proud to be european!

[djteac]

@hordeons so you mean as an EU wood league player, i got a chance to be low bronze in NA ?

[gettoneger]

really masters? lold but though nice he made it

[m4gg3rs]

y eu ladder is way harder than american

[TheSupgun]

@m4gg3rs eu players are better :P

[Zalgrads]

@m4gg3rs Careful what you say bro, these NA noobs are awful feisty

[bromast3r]

@m4gg3rs because people in the EU are bouse.

[acipswich]

@m4gg3rs Asia pacific ladder is even harder

[SuperBaeg]

@m4gg3rs fine i'll buy a european version of the game and if you guys lie. I'm never buying anything from europe ever again.

[Kaiho666]

american diamond looks like gold / low plat EU :/

[GustavoMsTrashCan]

Getting you on top Is hotter.

Just saiyan'.

[OneManSlayer]

im actualy learning. That sentry mineral line trick is awesome.

[reformCopyright]

It looks so easy!

[IEETLT]

did he put a zealot in the choke afther he moved out?

[srgspankie09]

Dude your the best hope u make it big I'll send u something on mailtime when I get some extra money I wish I could drink with u some day yeah from Cali much love Sergio

[danielgr86]

DUDE USE HOTKEYS!

[Pretentiouswaffle]

@danielgr86

I can't believe that that's a piece of advice that people have to give to a masters on a "team"

So sad.

[danielgr86]

@Pretentiouswaffle Just cntrl+3 for nexo, to a top40 master...jajajajaja

[sjoetta]

@danielgr86 he is using hotkeys? (Nexus, warpgate, 1 control group / + hotkey for forcefield)

[Tagrineth]

@sjoetta hotkeying warpgates is irrelevant

[sjoetta]

@Tagrineth I know, you misunderstood me - he is using the W of course. I seem to miss Jeff clicking any icons, he seems to use hotkeys the whole time?

He could make a 2nd control group or hotkey his forge...

[OnlyKoolaid]

@Tagrineth I hope you figured out what the comment said by now.... you know, now that you are looking like shaweetard.

[RyanStarcraftProtoss]

@danielgr86 just imagine how amazing he could be if he used everything on hot keys.

[danielgr86]

@RyanStarcraftProtoss He would be top master, he understands the game so wont be hard for him to get this, if he starts using hotkeys.

[YamiNezumi]

really likes this game.

[urpis99]

So you can get in masters in na server with 15 apm with toss without hotkeys, intresting.

[Ashlak]

@urpis99 Yes.

[yagr93]

ohh you sound much more serious and pro now... It's not what we want :P

[HerdULIekLetsPlays]

really liked that tact :D

[FitnessGuru91]

wow man that was one of the best games ive seen from you and in general I like that force field play haha.

[ITZWILLIS]

you should play HD in a showmatch. That would be beast =D

[xmiszxiszx]

wp my anus

[iamzheone]

@DCdurial Creep does not give vision, tumors do.

[aswertiobn]

@iamzheone creep gives vision... bronzie

[SeQuoiae1]

@aswertiobn Creep doesn't give vision. The creep tumors do. Wood league ?

[iamzheone]

@aswertiobn do your research wood league retard.

[renamorcen]

Toss OP

[DCdurial]

dosen't the creep scout the proxy pylon?

[eddiemc7]

Very well played... love it!

[GigaSiphon03]

Jeff, when the Hell did you get this good? Like, that was almost a flawless game. I don't even remember you warping units via proxy pylon.

[ClovisMcPaul]

wow..

i just finished playing sc 2 on low,

watch this full screen and have an eyegasm cause it's on ultra(or maybe extreme)

[MrMatta02]

Nice strat man!

[Kobe208]

Flawless

[Reruro]

Damn son you were calm as hell O:

[randycruzet]

i hate how jeff thinks hes so raw now hes in masters

[WEmmettB]

@randycruzet haters gunna hate.

[mrjinster]

forge gateway cannon then nexus? why?

[seniorgir]

@mrjinster forge and gateway so that lings have to run a longer distance and cannon which is placed behind gets more shots in. means if zerg try to rush, not many lings will be left by the time they get into mineral line, and almost none left by the time they get to the cannon.

[Penance0X]

well played, calm and confident.

[bobmcme12]

wow. very nice man

[genericyoutubname]

you should try the new whitera speshul tictac which he used heavily on his stream last night: 3 gate robo into double expand into 40 gates o.O worked really well too

[Davismism]

that was sweet dude

[Josh89Drummer]

damn, sir.. you have gotten A LOT better! You were so relaxed throughout and made it look so easy. Keep up the good work and good luck in xSix!

[memokk]

U RULE BLACK

[LearsXD]

Ok i'm pissed drunk ate a pizza and a box of cookies, and the only thing that came in my mind when I asked myself I want to chill hardcore was. Watch some Maximus Black Master game footage :D

[stickflip723]

@6:57 fucking genius. Man its been so cool to watch you all the way from quest to diamond. I gotta say your talkin and playin like a serious pro now. keep this shit up and you'll hit GM in no time.

[FrostdPoptart]

"Only a top 8 zerg"

my, how you've grown. Would you have said that last month?

[piecharthosen]

sigh...

I heard 'protein' instead of 'pro team'

was like ... wait what is he talking about? OH

derp. and I don't even work out that often any more

[USMBfrij]

Might want to consider warping in a bob by your cyber core with some of that extra 500/500 money you have there. could save you some eco damage if the push fails. Also get your 5th and possibly a 6th gate a little earlier. Remember, 3 gates per base :)

[nateyj11]

I love how the Zealots say "We cannot hold!" Sort of a reminder to players to not have them sitting there holding position while stalkers or marines are shooting them in the face.

[silencioseu]

@nateyj11 i thought they said it when they die

[Shadowfolds]

I love watching you stream, but I miss it sometimes. I hope you upload here more so I can get my fix even in the AM ^^

[LegitMuffinMan]

Hey i was wondering if you would do something with Warcraft 3 i think its a lot of fun and id really enjoy watching some stuff from you guys

[LtHenryCrunch]

Molding you into a better player, huh. I thought you knew it all about molding. *wink wink. (Cuz he made a mold of his penis)

[321hole]

wait is he with six gameing now

[Wilson1592]

@321hole He's on the xSix team now.

[striker058]

It looked so easy to kill a top 8 Diamond lol

[jingy90]

great cast jeff. love this approach and gives the cast a more personal feel. and i must commend your sc2 skills,

[metalwilla]

You've really improved jeff!

[MrPainapplez]

good game.

[RighteousRetribution]

Your screenname is pretty sexy with that xSix tag maximus, not gonna lie. ;] bouse
