New Zerg Vs. Protoss

[TheMusZero]

Why does the zerg win every one of those fights :( That is not fun...

[TheAizensamma]

Fail vid lurkers isint in sc2 but if it whas then it would be pretty fucking cool

[Narutogee]

@TheAizensamma you know you can still use them in custom maps and stuff like that right?

[Spongey1985]

@TheAizensamma they are actually... just not in melee

[ritzlaureano]

wait there is lurkers for starcraft 2 MAN I don't know how to build one for that LOL sry i'm noob at this game

[shayoko6]

then kerrigan shows up and wipes them all out

[x0TehGameStation0x]

yeah of course the protoss lost if they have to fight that much...

[Disorder92]

why is there a terran thor in the end when zerg comes with ultralisks and toss has colossi?^^

[jkarmageddon1234]

@Disorder92 its a terran and protoss team vs zerg. you can see some landed vikings a banshee, couple marines, and i think a ghost in there too

[olentattimies]

@Disorder92

eh?

[zildjianuo7]

Man.. all of the units and building designs in alpha look so much better than they do now.

[IqmasterDaNinja]

@zildjianuo7 Yeah, and banelings were a lot bigger back then.

[SirEzkil]

Oh lol starcraft BETA.... so fucked up

[IceHarmony]

@SirEzkil yeah, and this was the starcraft alpha version so... its fine right :P

beta was the one where the public was allowed to play :)

[Sinxp13]

i think i sawa thor there

[zTheBravoSquadz]

1:40 don't bring a Thor to a Zerg vs Protoss fight.

[JIMMTIM]

1:15 

[3Carnifex]

wish this would be real

[spolu112]

@1:52 random thor

[CerberusT93]

@spolu112 hes not a random thor, hes a very specific thor :3.

besides there are other terran units coming from the left side including vikings, a banshee, and marines and i think i see a ghost in there too if im not mistaken.

[spolu112]

@CerberusT93 :OOOOOO you see dead people?

[CerberusT93]

@spolu112 yes, i do. Its such a torment constantly seeing them when nobody else can TT^TT

[spolu112]

@CerberusT93 roflmfao

[CerberusT93]

@spolu112 hey dont laugh, they're everywhere and they scare me! TT^TT

[spolu112]

@CerberusT93 ^^ have you seen my granddad then?? :O)

[CerberusT93]

@spolu112 mm... Im not sure who your granddad was but this one friendly ghost of an elderly gentleman asked me to tell you that he said hi. Im not sure if it was him but he seemed like a really nice talkative guy ^^, im sorry for your loss though =(.

[spolu112]

@CerberusT93 he isnt really really dead hes just a ghost of the terran army :) but be sorry about my loss as a protoss if u want to cause thoose damn ghost emp's my shields :C

[elusuario989]

No need for 2 nydus, but it looked cooler...

[loupardent8199]

it's a lurker and is in rood war

[5Hshsh]

to bad nothing was costeffective

[matrixmdmd]

is that a thor? 1:32

[Lucky466]

this video sounds so cool with the sc 1 music. the sc 2 music sucks dick, i wish they hadnt changed it, i mean comon not even a remix?!

[xDremix]

roaches nerfed hard, sucks

[sas911]

Lol the stalkers backed then looked more like roaches.

[MrSurface94]

Zerg is always winning thats not fair

[Pyrocarbure]

missng something like 4 dark templar clering ALL those zerg : P btw they have to uppgrades overlord to have dectectors now..

[makua15457]

... this is not starcraft2 wings of lyberty 100%

[VillaWolf]

Damnit Blizzard, give us back our Lurker already :(

[alahad]

@VillaWolf you get your freaking insekt and we get the dark archon back... how about that??

[VillaWolf]

@alahad Deal.

[OnCaffiene]

lol, you see a Thor in fin battle

[mrheadagainstwall]

where was there a thor in the final battle???

[eroKev]

@mrheadagainstwall left side, behind the protoss were a thor attacking the zerg ^^

[201vasiliy]

WAAAAR!!!!

[FatalCrysis]

these look like really good graphics, What are the requirements?

[newf360]

I've never played a RTS before, but I heard they are hard.Does anyone know a easy one for me to try first?I own PS3,360,and Wii.I know there better on the PC but my PC can't play games.

[xKappash]

@newf360: You should really only play RTS on computers. :) SC2 is coming out tuesday, I recommend that, really. You'll learn as you play online with others. Might be frustrating losing a lot in the beginning, but we've all been there.

[newbiesown]

I see thor and vikings o_O

[FlyingVshredz]

An all new era of Starcraft! cant wait!

[EskaeDaStreetGeek]

god this game looks retarded. good thing scbw isnt going anywhere. i hope some day someone creates a project similar to CS:Promod for starcraft

[DeathByFoodTray]

@EskaeDaStreetGeek You should back off before half of the gaming community see this comment...

[loreistdoof]

yeah, lurker in cs2

[bumhunter2282]

i want this sooooo bad but im not sure my pc meets the minimum requirements to play but il try anyway

[tye62538]

i haven't played sc2 beta at all and hardly touched sc 1 but i want this!!!!!

[ffalsa]

why am i falling love in this game?

[Jcrexxor]

@ffalsa cause it pwns even more pwns in the beta

[justicieras2]

algunas criaturas de zerg no sale en el sc 2 es mentira ¬¬

[justicieras2]

algunas criaturas de zerg no sale en el sc 2 es mentira ¬¬

[Sebas3440]

The beta's awesome. ^_^

[archgameer]

have you guys got your beta key yet for SC2?!

This sites still running a giveaway:

starcraft2-beta-keys(dot)tk

[OldEvilEye1280]

Zerg are looking strong....

[MaDFFR]

sado maso ... .

[DeltaDrago324]

epic

[MutantBadger]

The reason it looks cartoonish is probably because of so many missing graphics implementations yet to be created, such as shading on the blood as it would seem.

[portal1337]

@MutantBadger Well, protoss don't bleed

[Triarii3]

@portal1337 Well, he never mentioned protoss bleeding

[portal1337]

Well, if you look closely the zerg do bleed.

[Azazel9k]

its beautiful :p

[CallMeCapta1n]

Why the hell is there a THOR in the ending battle? lol.

[ShadowCalic]

Cuz Raynor likes protoss?

[CallMeCapta1n]

Yeah, but it was kinda random; the whole video was Zerg/Toss, then out of nowhere came a THOR, lol.

[cdizzzzle]

They made sc2 look so cartoonish, they do with alot of games and i hate it.

[nicoelson]

more like plastic units

[ballm0use]

yep, they all screw it up to make it look pretty. it is no good. the grafiks was never an issue before, yet it looks like god damn world_warkraft.

[s031720]

I absolutely agree, both in style and in animation. Its putting me off SC2, but ofcourse I will still try it out.

[dec177fun]

the zerg suck they are only good in there name the swarm since thats the only time they can survive

[mydreamize]

I wanna See Jae-Dong`s Mutal control in Starcraft2.

[markymark2069]

Looks way too cartoony :(

[redetrigan]

It's interesting that when the banelings come out of the nydus worm they look like they already have been given an attack-move command.

[jagarcia0705]

At 1:25 I know 2 of the 3 Zerg units that pop up from the ground are the Ultralisk, but what is the name of the new Zerg unit in the middle?

[JayCeeEss1337]

Queen

[basher481]

@jagarcia0705 its the queen, in sc2 its a ground unit and it has an attack aswell

[Piscivorus]

How do those nydus cannals manage to avoid the lava? Seem like an oversight. Maybe the Zerg should be able to grow some kind of big mouth-like building or unit that can spit small groups of Zerg across the map in a single gelatinous lugy. When the lugy lands, it would act like a cushion, spreading out softly and then popping and dissolving into the ground while the Zerg inside emerge unharmed. :D

[TimePeriod]

1:14 ITS A TRAP!

[daSenfgurke]

the new lurkers look like toys for kids :D

such a design fail :D:D

[krakken46]

september 20 2009. just wondering. do zerg still have lurkers? this vid was last year. i hope they do have lurkers. im a protoss player, and i hate when they attack me with lurkers but theyre still awseome. plz whisper to me i want to know

[ProtectYaNeck23]

u can see lurkers come in at 0:05, they look alot uglier than the ones from sc1 but D=

[KingBowser2008]

dude, don u see the lurkers in this mid? lol

[DucklingShakespeare]

How bout that u protoss suckers

[thefallenwingz]

lol 1:57 clueless archon.

[dardonZ]

@thefallenwingz I thought the same lol. was just like "typical Lol"

[KingKoopa98]

@thefallenwingz

lol "oh fuk oh fuk oh fuk"

[arati0s]

The terran better still have science vessels. And they better have rockets because a queen that can attack is bs

[joyfullremorse]

yeah a queen can attack but she cant fly anymore

[DanyF02]

The scene at 1:00 looked cool for Z, but in realty P would only need an observer or that charge ability while chasing the lings.

[SiaBBo]

I love Nydus Worm!

[DanyF02]

You still like them now that they are used just like a regular building that requires creep?

[crazyfeyeet]

ummm can some1 tell me what those little green goop things that do suicide are called?

[poptartboi21]

they evolve from zergling, i forget what they are called, corruptors? idk

[huydrinkspee]

banelings to be exact

[poptartboi21]

Thanks man,

[TtnAtlas]

baneling

[xBrandonHomicidex]

Banelings

[Emothiks09]

those nydus canals look AWESOME!!!

[trueprophesy]

now there called nydus worms

[jnguyen0749]

its like that one thing in the meteor from starwars. don't ask how i remember that.

[antkingxxxxxxxxxxxx]

stop sayin banelings are over powered there not there smart and if ur a smart protoss player then u can counter with a veryyyyyy simple immortal sqaud

[requywolf]

THANK GOD i can control more than 12 units at a time now from the first SC and microing....dead.....in an RTS.....thats impossible...blizzard did'nt kill microing FASTEST did that lol

[Coolioflip666]

uh, hate to break your heart, but blizzard said they will probably keep the 12 unit cap, but it MAY be subject to change.

[mann0311]

burrowing ultras

i had dreams about them in brood war

:D

[humangrenade]

as far as people worrying that 3d and infinite unit control killing micro, dont. go watch some matches amongst the pros. After watching a few myself it is clear that micro is still alive and well inside SC. DId you really think blizz would kill MICRO in a RTS? Thats like, killing aim in a FPS. (cough fallout)

[RFToxicTofu]

What does RTS stand for Rape Trauma Syndrome?

[Trib3000]

It's about time the zerg got a buff, they were way too underpowered in brood war. Zerg are not overpowered, they are just getting a MUCH needed boost IMO.

[mcneil83]

wow the neu zerg are really heavy

[AlpinKirkonen]

this game wont be nearly as good as BW

honestly

[s4jt]

Ehrm, why? The greatest critique on what we've seen so far is that it has been TOO much like Starcraft 1. Aside from the implementations and removals of a few units, more interactive terrain and a graphicsupdate it's pretty much the exact same game.

Personally I think it looks to be an excellent game but I do understand those who may have wanted something more than just a facelifted SC1.

[AlpinKirkonen]

Yeah, well I like BW because of the great competitiveness in multiplayer, which I don't see in this game.

I did see a comment above saying this isn't meant to be competitive like that, which is probably true. The graphics for this game look cool I guess, but I'll stick with BW. My comp wouldnt run this anyway.

[s4jt]

Why wouldn't it be as competative? I can't see any reason for it whatsoever. It has potential for MORE depth than Starcraft 1 and Blizzard have managed to balance every RTS they've released so far.

The graphics are nice and you can scale them down quite nicely in case your computer is old. I'll personally try to save up for a new computer until its released, a machine that can run SC2 and D3 nicely can't be money ill spent.

[AlpinKirkonen]

I see zero potential for micro in this game, where you can control however many units at a time, the units all kind of meld into one large group and it's hard to distinguish one from another.

This game as far as I can see will be fun, but it simply won't have the competitive level of BW which is what made BW such an epic and longlasting game.

I certainly can't see this making pro level like BW anyway.

[s4jt]

The units are IMO easy to pick out and control, no different than WC3 for instance. Controlling any number of units (if there is indeed is no cap) doesn't change anything either, micro will give the same advantage either way.

I'm trying to figure out what you're grasping at but really can't see it.

[AlpinKirkonen]

Do you watch proleague starcraft, or play at all competitively? This game will be more like WC, like you say, or comand and conquer or something like that, a fun game but not the high level of skill required to play BW.

This game will be fun for the beginner or the newbie but not as fun for a player wanting to compete, is what I'm saying. And I don't know what you mean by battle reports.

[s4jt]

Btw, have you taken a look at the battle reports?

[DarkDezzick]

an alienware could run it... i hope.

[warlik777]

wow dis is going to be a HOTASS game

[Homebrand91]

what are those rolling things

[s4jt]

zerglings can morph into a suicide bomber unit.

[requywolf]

the baneling they evolve from zergling

[xsmpx09]

awesome!

[7aChAry8]

how long did that battle at the end last? it looked like it would go forever

[Glumglufs]

Gah! Watching Zerg beat protoss is no fun :( it should be the other way.

[ztunelover]

wow you are all being idiots except a few. these a demo pieces to show the capabilities and stuff so far. I didnt see the zerg try and take down 12 battlecruiser squadron, or a 12 carrier squadron, or a 4 mothership squad. come to think of it i didnt see the mothership destroyed at all cept by a nuke?

[scourgetheone]

The rift worms look awesome.

[STARCRAFTisLIFE]

ALl races are great they are equal in there on way if u watch all the videos and thionk about it toss do kick the zergs ass some times but they kick everyones asses to. im goin to be zerg and illl kick all who apose me except other zergs

[SuperHereticus]

Gooooooooo zerg!!

[BryanUK666]

Hmmmm do you think some decent psychic assualts from templar would have helped in that last battle scene?

[makedonec19]

Damn I hate those fucking Zerg,Bllizard made them invincible ,there is no more balance,they are like the strongest and those Suicide units are big advantage to them,i think they are infested terrans.I am very disaponited.........

I wish the UED was involved as well

[Katsuhisa777]

ummm wtf, you havent even played it you noob how can you think its unbalanced??

[Vazzeeeee]

observer isn't expensieve to catch burrowed units and use only one flyable unit he will ownz your suicide heroes:) u should be happy that u won't get a brainless /build some unit and won/ game think a bit and got many way to catch the suicide bastads... ,bring a colossus to a high spot, tele-kill with dragoons etc. blizzard always makes the balance perfect, thatswhy i playin still with starcraft;)

[superarbol]

banelings have splasher dmg??

[MarkSchultzrules]

This game will be amazing. All the teams are starting to become more balanced, even though the Zerg's burrowing became a little... Too much..

But still.

[12463trf]

they need to give the zerg some ground units to fight against armored units in tier 2, cause they only got 3 units in tier 1 and you gotta wait till tier 3 till you get something to fight armored ground. ex. terran gets marauders, and protoss get stalkers T_T XD

but i gotta say, physicological warefare, roaches/ultra's and banelings gotta mess with the head a bit XD

[hermesw]

wow the rollin boomers look horrifying

[paulpaul1217]

Yea zergs rules yea yea

[monobrow303]

Those suicide units look really fucking annoying

[paulpaul1217]

They are thats just the fun part hehe

[cebuanoguy]

hmm it seemed they fixed the lurkers. Lurkers in SC1, has friendly damage.

[StainFree]

so you're saying they no longer do friendly damage? how would you know? the video only shows your own lurkers and forces fighting, without any allies

[cebuanoguy]

dumpy dumpy, look at the vid again. back lurkers, they didn't kill the zerglings from behind. if you played SC1, you can tell that the lurkers have friendly fire if you get on the subteranean spines way.

[StainFree]

I did play sc1. lurkers only hurt allied units, not your own. The zerg in the video all belong to one team so there's no way to tell if the lurkers no longer do friendly damage.

[Knightsauce]

thiose exploding freen things look way too OP

[SovietMudkipTheTiger]

1:10 ITS A TRAP !!!

[12463trf]

I still think protoss are over powered a bit.

hopefully it'll all be smoothed out.

btw, to all of you guys saying the zerg are OP because of this vid, do some research on the costs of the units/buildings, banelings cost a lot for the measle dmg they do T_T

the zerg spend equal amount to just hold back the Protoss XD I <3 Zerg ^^

[destruct0r]

i heard that its gonna be 3 seperate games one for each race because the game play is that immense

[12463trf]

mmm, I've heard that their is going to be 3 games too

1. Wings of Liberty

2. Heart of the Swarm

3. Legacy of the Void

but, i've also read that their is going to be all 3 races per campaign, but with the main focus on the race portrayed. (dont take my word on that, i dont know for sure XD)

I hope the gameplay is immence, we've been waiting for so long for this T_T (tears of joy*)

I just hope my laptop can handle it.

im always playin sc at the university with friends.

[SuperHereticus]

banelings do very good dmg, you just have to know what kind of units and buildings they are good against

[Jockejpg]

What is the Queen doing at 1:25 - 2:04 ??

[12463trf]

COMMANDING THE SWARM!!! XD

i unno, not much

[FLOODKILLA]

the queen is cheering the zerg on LOL

[filijohnpino]

i think zerg is way to powerful.. it just doesn't make the game even

[12463trf]

i disagree, maybe cause im a primary zerg player. but im happy they did something for the zerg (ultralisk and roaches for ex)

i think protoss is way to powerful, least they were in sc 1, terran were the only ones really balanced i think ^^

and what is it that makes you think the zerg are overpowered here?

keeping in mind they probably tampered with the supply line in these videos to show mass units. T_T

[FrustratedAssasin]

No such thing as overpowered race in StarCraft, you just didn't know the right strategies to counter whatever Protoss players beat you...

[MightGIc]

u need to know that templars have storm , and that own zerg.

but we can see this toss (player ) didnt even make templars?

if he has storm zerg is really fucked and this is really unbalance ahahha.

that suicide shit cant even touch u

[Evilthought03]

Oooo come on!!! You cant have it all if blizzard will screw this and that from the other races that seems to threat the zerg's then there will be no game. Zerg's are looking freaking overpowered right now with all their stuff, why you guys are not pleased with that and you want blizzard to nerf the other races more come on this is not fair!!!

[Glumglufs]

This is not in a competitive game, it's just a demo to show off the Zerg!

[wu1038]

what an idiot. It's just a highlight video of the new game mechanics. Have you been living under a rock ??

[MightGIc]

well calm down dont take it so serius :S

its just an opinion and comment.
