StarCraft 2 - SC443 - Argos (Z) vs DreamFou (P) on Metalopolis Part 2

[Juicin198]

that was crazyyyyy

[puffmax]

Isn't it pronounced chi-tin-ous instead of kit-on-ous?

[Cl99049]

Classic agros nydus play.Very beautifully done

[itssomeidiot]

I vote that this is be the most exciting game of all times!

[tofucyborg]

that protoss was too hesitant. made bad calls. didn't leave three cannons in his main to cover for nydus. he deserved to lose :(

[k1awdttt]

@7:14 Inside the mind of the toss commanding general:

"Let's get the control back into our hands, time to turn the zerg base into battle ground!"

5 sec later...

@7:20 "$*#@*)#@!!!! Ultralisk and Hydras, fuuuuuuuuuu!!!!"

[VenoM6642]

Look up production tab at 8:50 part 1....Argos produces 26!!! drones at the same time.

[ClutchVolve]

@VenoM6642 36

[FinalWords]

This is the difference between Idras level and Argos' level. Zerg arent just about out macroing the other guy, its also about forcing themm to constantly fight on mulitple fronts. Something that once Idra learns to do will become a significantly better zerg player. *Btw thinking about Idra because just got done watching a game where he rages against Huk*

[toastedmm]

OMG that was suck a crappy game! I find myself constantly screaming at the toss player, "OMG push out already OMG!!!" Instead the toss player wins a battle, sits around and lets the zerg rebuild his forces, and THEN decides to push in. Terrible!

[omgLordLituslol]

@toastedmm the zerg's macro allowed him to be at 180 supply before a battle ended, there was almost no window for the toss to push him once the zerg's economy kicked in (which was early on)

[mancamiatipoola]

OMG, that was an epic game !

Argos went into that multiple nydus strategy and simply swarmed the protoss everywhere !

It's so much fun to watch Argos do his magic !!! :D

GG ARGOS, the best zerg player out there !

[credukar]

great game. this is what it means to swarm



[Sebbabix]

phenominal zerg play, thanks for the cast crota

[FumfelDudi]

Keep up good work Argos ! :)

[elopln89]

Wow one of the best game i ve ever seen :OI Argos Rulz

[XDPirateXD]

BEST GAVE I'VE EVER SEEN!

[XDPirateXD]

INSANE NYDUS PLAY!

[Atheist269]

@BlizShouter eh sorry i didn't mean to insult you by saying "bulshit" i was just havin a bad day, but yeah what i said was basically true! But ppl voted it down so much it just says "too many negative votes" LOL. Well i deserved it i guess. Keep up commentating dude, and again sorry for the bm.

[Kogerii]

@Atheist269

kudos too you. It's rare to see someone muster as much maturity on a comments page as he'd have in person.

[tome0124]

nice cast! ;)

[zoitsudo]

Seeing Argos playing Zerg is like a party!

[ZcertimTO]

Masteries of zerg by Argos... :D Great job Crota...

[xitup1]

That was un-fucking-real gameplay by Argos!!!!!

[stevz0r]

wow p played so well but argos played even better... gg

[joelpalkia]

argos was my favorite since i first saw his infestor play, now argos will remain as my favorite with beautiful nydus play. all hail ArgosZenex the Nydus King!

[Gamefreaky1234321]

omg, argos is a boss

distract the gut with a the worm trick then when he gets back

BAM, ultralisk

[ZombieKingKong]

@Gamefreaky1234321 ultras would have worked perfect if there was a detector nearby...

[Mordini3]

Jesus! that was insane Zerg play, best I have seen in long time

[mtthwpez]

Excellent game and probably the best use of the nydus worm I have seen!

[EcuadorianFlagShip]

Man... I would hate fighting argos

[chesmaster2ky]

Good game. Nice nydus play but, lack of scouting cost protoss the game.

[koopatheone]

omg there was SOOOO many drones at the same nexus ... Baneling would've made me cry... wouldn't handled the epicness

[GW33DZ]

epic nydrus worm play

[TheRedemptionRain]

stupid Protoss put down some cannons in your bass so you don't have to move your army back and forth against nydus worms

[kavehwarrior13]

good game crota, keep it up bud.

[00calvera]

amazing game

[laketahoethebest]

this guy must've been an auctioneer in his past life.

[larryjjang7]

지지 = ㅈㅈ = gg = good game

ur welcome. :)

[Limitlesszebra]

Argos is now my favorite zerg player. Sorry PsY :[

[takymura0142]

best zerg game ive ever had the pleasure of watching

[WarlordOfDeath59]

Nydus worm FTW!!!

[ectorcab]

wow one of the best uses of zerg ive seen.

[HugoFoxHH]

jesus epic tense battle

[Atheist269]

pfft in the beginning when u said "gateway coming so no forge play" u were talking lots of bullshit. Ever heard about the 1gateway into nexus FORGE play??? GREAT build vs FE zerg

[BlizShouter]

@Atheist269 I have heard of it but I rarely see it now that roaches have a range of 4. If it becomes more main stream again, I'll add a mental note of it has a potentail opening.

[etgua]

@BlizShouter wow y r ppl being such dicks i think ur casts r great keep it up!!!

[Kogerii]

Jeez, argos has his opponent's whole army chasing him across the map while he expands and techs :) I think if Dreamfou had attempted a basetrade after one of the max-size battles he might've been able to roll Argos. DT might be a good counter to nydus worms.

@BlizShouter

I like how polite you are when responding to a rude atheist.

[mooogles]

@Atheist269 another atheist acting without manner... 

[Xecuter274]

@mooogles Why are you making fun of him because he is atheist? How about you make fun of all those other religions? It would mean you are making fun of the world then. Not everyone is christian, muslam, or jewish. Not everyone has to be. Its a belief for crying out loud. Also, you do realize that the way he acts is no way related to his religion? There are many people who believe in a religion but do nothing that their religion says.

[mooogles]

@Xecuter274 Unlike other religions with many ignorant masses, my personal believe is that all atheist should be mindful and mannered in his/her behavior. Unfortunately it saddens me that this is not the case..

Your perception of my comment is far from correct.

[GabrielGagnonMailhot]

this guy is everywhere at once! I love that

[manyworlds123456789]

Wow. :O

[Enkwi]

This is a real zerg player!

[TheGaldy1111]

Argos is overpowerd somone plz patch him lol

[Athmosphear]

amazing game !

[TheCynicalClit]

lol what a great macrostyle. brilliant harrass.

[gatoman46]

[CMcCauley1020]

That was an AMAZING game!

[Rodrighus]

Once again: Thank you so much crota

[LlanosDR]

wow!

[realwxr]

WOW.  just WOW

[Sabrenin]

nice game

[st3v3ninj4]

Damnn good gamee!!

[mangoknights]

Protoss screwed up. At one point he uses the Pheonixes to lift roaches, meanwhile the corrupters nearby where killing his colossi. He never recovered after that.

He was also pretty dumb about the nydus problem - a couple base cannons or patrols would have ended it.

[Hatchatfatbat]

@mangoknights Not at all! You cant have cannons everywhere on the map. Besides Protoss made lots of cannons but 10 cannons per base couldnt stop 40 roaches...

[3dsyphon]

Argos still remaining the most entertaining zerg player out there as well as being one of the best. GOOD GAME and good cast! :)

[MrEpic100]

holy shit argos your amazinn

[opti420sk]

ridiculous game! thanks crota

[despadas]

ok, that was one crazy game

since people for some stupid reason read the comments before watching the video...

spoilerspoilerspoilerGozergspo­ilerspoiler

[Oyvind21]

I just love seeing the Zerg overun the overpowered Protoss and smash them to pieces! Just love it! Great game, one of the best Ive seen!

[MrEpic100]

@Oyvind21 mann that was some crazy play from Argos.

[Oyvind21]

@MrEpic100

Yeah, it sure was. I loved the nydus worm strategy he used. Kept confusing the Protoss. I was lmao in enjoyment. XD

[funk100able]

toss forgot about having more than three bases

[juanitovpipower]

SCII question:

can we graviton beam a burrowed unit ?

[ArgOsZenith]

@juanitovpipower if you have observer, you can.

[Vega62a]

Argos's play was excellent, but DreamFou mishandled that pretty badly. If you're going to be aggressive as Protoss, be aggressive as protoss, he was kind of sitting somewhere between trying to macro and trying to fight. Also, UPGRADES. BECAUSE UPGRADES.

[blackshilen]

Wow! I really love his Nydus network technique! Haven't seen that kind of strategy before.

[luckykiller]

Great Game! Good job with the casting! You getting good ;]

[hujimix]

As always, Argos' play is so damn sexy. Now he pullls out a new way to spam nydus network, he should be called "The engineer"

[omega86yu]

I love zergs. For the Horde!!!... I mean For the Swarm >.>

[lorenzo71189]

지지 hehehe

[agostinho1234]

argos: the omnipresence of the zerg

[NoUseForAName06]

argos is my fav Zerg :-)

[LarsSod]

Weird Zerg. Combines marvellous stuff with utter stupidity. What an uneven player!

[Gunnar00]

wowwwwwww. Couldn't dreamfou have won if he continued the push at 5:19?

[hylkon1]

@Gunnar00 well argos still had all those zerglings and hydras ready to go, while dream didnt have any backup, so even if argos lost his bases he would still take out dream's entire army and go to his base and take him out :P

[MrJaredblake7]

wow Crota, what a game, great cast!

[50josh50]

nice nydus play

[linenlines]

so entertaining argos ^_^

[BadmouseBoy]

Beautiful zerg play

[fuuror]

Oooohhh man.....argos has master level nydus gameplay O_O

[Nutzername3107]

DreamFou was able to win.he should attacked earlier,but the Argos was OP (=

[iamscythe]

man !! what a game !! argos is a true champion !!

[philip2111]

That was insane, the zerg played really well

[xujploxjux]

SO EPIC! Honestly the most amazing use of mass nydyus ive EVER seen. Crushing nexus's then building mass units just for fun XD.

[amazingdany]

Nydus worms make very exciting and interesting games.

[hamsterminator]

Really cool game. The looser should have made more effort to kit the economy of his opponent though.

[LoneAidenPryde]

that was a perfect game by argos

[Bwhaaa]

I salute Crota's efforts to follow all the action in this game, very enjoyed this Broadcast thanks

[cristobalvallejosv]

amazing zerg play!....that kind of nydus control can not be stoped

[xKappash]

shouldve stopped after he got the nexus...

[bh28]

lol 3 control tabs of roaches trying to mine

[RootzofEvil]

Nydus... probably the only play that I actually like to see Zerg do. I respect the zerg player, and cheered for him this whole time.

Nothing gets my respect for Zerg unless it's a Nydus network

[justinihilanth]

WAHAHAHA NICE NYDUS PLAY!! XD

[sharkeee01]

ah, its nice to see argos use his famous nydus play again :)

[Ykooo]

awesomeness, pure.

[dushk2]

EPIC play omg ,pure awesomeness:P

[zen23ish]

geez that was EPIC play!

[e3xdubb]

He failed sooo hard with corruptors at one point... glad it worked out in the end tho ^^

[e3xdubb]

WOW! I wanna see this replay!!!

[Samseneider]

Never Play Starcraft 2 but it looks so cooolllll an exiting !!!!! ;D Nice Game

[zottejakke3]

OMG epic nydus play O_O

[pqmec]

Destroy nexus ignoring defenses... interesting technick

[e3xdubb]

@pqmec if you can actually take it out. If you sac your whole army for it, might not be worth it ^^

[japphan]

90+ drones, leaving little supply for army, FORCES you to play zerg this way. At least with roaches, as they are so heavy on the supply.

Awesome play by Argos.

[Mighoul]

Great match, Argos' food count was like a yoyo in that game

[aclock2]

Nydus nightmare

[Zeration]

This guy is a genius.

[gregjs81]

take notes Idra: THAT'S how to play zerg

[sharkeee01]

@gregjs81 lol, but you have to remember, Idra gets his ass handed to him vs ANY pro zerg gamer ive seen eg: Kyrixzenith,TLO,argos,fruitdea­ler,etc

[just3half3evil3]

Great game & great cast! thanks.

[BubbaStump42]

Argos redefining "The Swarm." I like it.

[Susanmugen]

Really great nydus worm play!

It takes a skilled zerg to pull off a two-sided war like that effectively.

[samnelso]

Wow! That may be the best game I've ever seen.

[MSTRBoudini]

Terrible decision making by dream.

[calliph]

the zerg had really poor rally points. like 5 times they ran right into the enemy army.

[sor3999]

Dream was too hesitant and passive. He had many chances to just run in and counter-attack and win. When his big counter attack came he just sat his army there and let the roaches finish and rally. :\ I was literally screaming at the screen telling him to get the fuck off his ass and attack.

[Majin35]

@sor3999

maybe it would have been the right move but u have to think in perspective of the player, argos played it amazingly, throwing small clusters of roaches into dreams army, to delay it, throwing lings and roaches into his expo and main, dream had almost no scouting at all he didnt know what he was walking into.

Argos plays zerg like no other dares to, throwing units away and creating them right away, takes alot of macro and micro to do wat he does and wins

[crapgazm]

Pronounced "kite-ton-us" winning with zerg is such hard work. More rewarding than attack move for terrans though.

[Subzero623]

Probably the most overkill macro and micro from argos

[kingchessking]

this was one of the most exciting and memorable game i've ever seen

[FFCYAN]

That was nothing short of awesome by Argos.

[kb27787]

Argos! Argos! Argos!!! more Argos games plz!!!! always entertaining to watch him lol that was some pretty annoying nydus play from the toss... I thought he had it won once he hit critical mass collossi (yeah Argos threw the corrupters away to make roon for more food might as well once they did their job)

[missin1000]

Can one just walk into mordor?

[CircleTheSkies]

Beautifully done. Nydus play, using the economic boost from 80-90 drones and a large number of hatcheries with queens to respawn his army over and over, knowing when to retreat with the raiding forces... Wonderful to watch.

[rawtheory333]

Absolutely amazing game. As a Zerg player I'm in awe.

[scaban84]

Argos is brilliant.

[wkatz0]

Incredible. Finally someone uses nydus network to its full potential!

[klankara]

Crota, As the new year is coming, perhaps you may want to make a video about top players of 2010. Like Top 5 Z, top 5 T, top 5 P with parts form their game plays. Or may be most interesting gameplays, tactics... of 2010 based on your videos and videos from SCLegacy...

[gregjs81]

@klankara that idea is like 6 different flavors of win. Crota, do it!

[Kogerii]

@klankara

I'd really like to see this or a "pimpest plays" type compilation of the best micro for that year.

I don't know who made it originally but someone made such a vid and it included 7+ ghosts putting lockdown on carriers and destroying enough of them before it wore off to turn the battle (this's BW's).

[jmoreira2]

WOW! amazing game

[hereinsertname]

That was the best game I have ever seen Argos play, what a beast. He must have like 6 arms to control that many units at once over so much space.

[victorcelmare]

very intense

[mithrius2]

One of the best tactical games I've ever seen in Starcraft 2. Argos' Nydus play is fucking inspired.

[cosminsparks]

this is a perfect proof that is stupid to turtle against zerg, especially since he had vision at the begining and zerg had only 4 queens, got knews for Protoss: Harass, best strategy, or expand if he expands, protoss let zerg get the advantage

[enjolraslechimiste]

Crota, please learn how to pronounce "chitinous." It's a real word, go look it up in a dictionary to find the pronunciation.

[quennj92]

I love this style of%

[bledthemultitude]

There are a lot of extremely retarded zerg players that do not appreciate either the nydus or the hydralisk. Extremely retarded

[Urdnot06]

Very strange game but fun nonetheless. Intelligent Nydus usage always gives me a nerd-boner.

[FaIlHiGH]

extremely sexy nydus worm play. Excellent control and because he kept scouting the area, he was always aware of Dream's economic control.

[DesN00b]

this is a great example of why good macro and harassment pays out in the end, and those nydus worm shenanigans were fucking awesome!

[xtAoGx]

Intense very good cast man! Thanks!

[hualimz]

great great game

crota , please tell your friend argos, he's really my hero

[RichardJWNHS]

WOW epic game!

[dhtjlghks]

the ㅈㅈ is like exactly "gg", just consonants (except it makes the j sound)

지지 makes the sound "gee gee"

[AsianPrideSir]

that was awesome O.O

[LEATHALBODY]

fourish

[stinklesnapz]

great game

[ny1fanta]

whoa, one of the best zerg plays ever! great job with nydus

[brizihe]

i love nydus play!

[drpeppergod]

thirdishish

[dpt4565]

[jwka2001]

FIRSTIES!!!
