Starcraft 2 Challenge #5 - Psionic Assault

[FroSnFlames]

I made it to mothership Q__Q couldn't get past it cuz i had like 1 archoon with no shields 4 sentries and 2 hts

[Criddian]

thx! :D

[VenatorFX2012]

Better to use Psionics to Stream A Hot Chick giving Champagne Pop or a Mediocre Looking Chick to Some Old Fashioned Whigs or Lobster Tails not bang the bus, That makes you Radical Radeon Neuro Transmmiters! or Buy the Serum whatever is Cheaper?Network+ or RFID+? Vote Electoral College Morphine-Terraburnium-Technote­uim vs. Zinc Laconic Viconium? Which Makes you Dance at the Illuminati Party Like you have the Whore Universe Spinning like the Chinese Dragon Emperor Planets?Hermes 3x Or Eurphoria

[Marsvilta]

i got 300, 2 forcefields can block off the ramp, and hallucinations are key.

[VenatorFX2012]

@Marsvilta Hallucinations Are from Ghost of Mars Movie due to XFX ATi 5990 Gauss Rifle, No Visionary Processing Unit boosting logic doesn't help vs. Hallucinations or Terran Ghosts!

[pjcool9]

Try "psyonic storm" rather than psionic storm" =)

[largo875]

gg comp lol :D

[onlyme4ever1996]

295 here,i keep dying to the freaking Battle cruiser into freaing clossus >>

[CforCheng]

@onlyme4ever1996 hallucination and feedback Whoo!!!

[dreadsniper97]

224 kills...

[trevtastic1]

I got OVER 9000!!!



[KishouEris]

235 first time. Just try to block with 2 forcefields, as ponieeee said, and dont be shy on using storms :p easy

[IndigoPriest]

a couple of hallucinations will take care of the banelings...

[tig0rp00d]

ty, good vid , great commentary =)

[jerrywuification]

Did any one beat the mothership？

[ponieeee]

u only need 2 forcefields on the ramp

[haubsen]

GO FIVEHUNDERET STORM

WHEN U CAN USE SENTRY DMG ONLY

shitvideo lawl

[JustGtFoooo]

After 1 hour i make straight 225 kills, hardest mission for me so far :x. Thx for advices :)

[BradenR3]

thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you

I could never get past 2 rounds after the southeast(or something) came.

[mrm0thster]

you can forcefield this ramp with only 2 forcefields :P

[Skrietarded]

Thank you for this strategy, just got mine today, didn't realize how much damage the sentries did and i used to psi storm like a mofo.

[GREG0RY100]

I died cuz of banshee

[ChuckleKing]

I'm perfect up until the mutas rape me.

[TheKorman89]

also if u block the bottom of the ramp they cant see up so u dont need to storm as much either if your sentries can kill the enemies in time

[TheKorman89]

you can block the ramp with only 2 fields, dont waste energy

[jkwatts8807]

This challenge blows massive Zealot penis!!!

[SkypeGamersBr]

Omg i hate this one !

[chrbo935]

Thanks for the help, as soon as I stopped wasting energy on hallucinations I got my gold achievement.

[Stewie5791]

thanks man :D

[Demonamic777]

Wow... this is fucking bullshit. This doesn't work at all. Every time I try to use Force Field it marks the location like movement and never casts it at fucking all.

[GodsmackFTW]

@Demonamic777 Try clicking/pressing the hotkey for it and before you place it anywhere hold down shift, Then you can place as many as you want if you have the energy without reselecting the spell, Using Shift before your command will let you tell one unit multiple things to do without you having to hold their hand through the whole thing.

[bardoxvideos]

Awesome, big help for gold. Seems the AI has improved now though.

[dennisbernard11]

[ikiret]

Thanks to the author! This was hard!

[dx8master]

fuck it was hard

[LINAZAS]

watch?v=QPJUFbtgLR0 watch mine

[raiden4mgo]

this one to fking  hard

[elMITCHador]

i actually managed awesomly only using 2 forcefeilds per ramp

[FC1032]

:D Thanks for some of the hints! I only had silver, will try again tonight.

I tend to make a concave with the forcefields for the storm to hit all the units (hydras)

[jehatten1]

Awesome job man, thank you!

[deftones32284]

Thanks for posting these, so incredibly helpful. This was definitely my most difficult challenge to deal with but got the Gold with your tutorial help.

[FiveCardArmy]

Is there a replay for the left ramp strategy? I'd love to see it.

[GreyLucid]

your soo good =D

[SilentXStarcraft]

At the south you can block it with 1 forcefield at the small choke

[achillessniper]

you can use 2 forcefields instead of 3, and keep outa hydra range.. may have been said already

[MatiZneedSpeed]

@achillessniper it's true

[KonKaizo]

Psionic fuck

[pooxtreme3]

i just got 224.

[jorgefl1965]

@pooxtreme3 lol me too



[yiri123]

Got gold 231 kills :D

hard part for me was the reaper rush, they always got to me and killed many sentry's :( but after some practice i blocked everything :D

[GagarineYuri]

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAW

[Kes5d]

when going against banelings its easier to just hallucinate. they banelings will suicide on the hallucination.

[XxFirgreenxX]

@Kes5d hallucinate costs lots of energy.

[Sablefun]

I've been thinking, do hallucination units have energy? Cause in that case you can like hallucinations to just build upp an army of sentries and just go to town. :D

[Schaman9]

hah, cant stop laughing :D at 11:10

[coolerthecoolest]

what program did you use to record this vid :O ? its the best quality i have ever seen in sc2

[iLickForFr33]

you can block each wave with 2 force fields

[tebowmandude]

nice guide GJ

[astralsmtdew]

I still cant do it...but thank you. Practice makes perfect!

[Delphawi]

lol I was using Hallucinations all of the time :D , thanks for the vid

[DuyAnh1]

ty I got my gold xD

[TheHansie]

Got the spectre, ty so much!

[Gregorgovitch]

Hahaha i beat your record mine is 280 xD

[SharkyIzrod]

Did anyone else notice at the 3:54 psy storm it said TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE DAMAGE!

[judeffr]

hey r u in grand masters!! coz ur so freaking good

[R3fini]

IM SOOO DUMB! i completly forgot about force field. i only used halucination and psy storm, managed to get silver i was like how the f**k am i supose to 225? XD

[aasian214]

you only need 2 forcefields to block off that ramp completely

[Generale97ita]

lol gg comp! i cant win i go only to 158 kills

[MalTube93]

this is a pain in the ass, the reapers from the south always rape my sentries

[arontana]

FINALLY! Thank you so much Psy, using your videos I finally got my Spectre portrait! :)

Now people are like "wtf u have that portrait u bronze". It's great.

[MrAbhorring]

I followed this video and got to 300 (maximum if you kill the mothership)

Thanks Psy

[Niosus]

thank you :)

[mthatguy1111]

this is by far the mos bs one of them all, and from what im seeing in this video, the patches have made it harder

[ToRSynizta]

@mthatguy1111

patches don't affect me single player.

[serban277]

After the latest patch this challenge got a bit harder. Archons can step on force fields...

[shreek29]

thanks a bunch! this was the last challenge i had to beat, just wasn't able to figure out how to do it without losing a bunch of sentries to basic mm.

for anyone reading, turns out the trick (for me) was to put the forcefields partly up the ramp instead of right at the bottom, so that they move into range but still don't have vision.

[BorisNaruto2]

at the end the vid restarts

[MizukiTHPS]

@BorisNaruto2 It was a blooper, smart one.

[TheGuyWithNoCookies]

Dude.. It works perfekt the first 3 waves.. But after that ALL my senteries ( Even the ones with full energy ) REFUSES to create forcefields! What should I do?

[JtownJUnkies]

@TheGuyWithNoCookies Not hold shift

[davidajmartinez]

Subscribed right after I read " It's not perfect, but it gets the gold achievement with plenty of cushion (for the pushin)." from the description

[NightHawk92929]

I beat this, last level is a mothership ^^

[killer939]

I got this second time, pretty easy.. just in my personal opinion i found this in the top 3 easiest.. I did it on fastest to and am copper league lol

[StannyScouts]

Yea, the ramp can be blocked off with two forcefields.. :p

[Backhymen]

You wasted so much energy on extra forcefields :P

[l3lackitty]

Is it just me or does the first way in bottom right with zealots and sentrys. . do they run away out of shooting site and fuck up your whole game for anybody else?

[robbynew]

you can keep out of sight on the first ramp by postitioning the sentrys on the orange lines and the sides of it, so you can save scistrom for the first 75 or so kills

[Thewandmirror]

lol at the end, this is going to be psionic eeh.. psionic fuck! XD

[Mazzin1k]

Hahah thank you for this one, hopefully will help

[mramf1994]

Thumbs up for the random replay of the vid at the end :)

[Jharkendar]

FFS, i got to the mothership, but i lost when it had 4hp left -_-

[sumuraijack1997]

this is insanely hard



[jjkk11999933222233]

thank you, I was able to finish this challenge, which was the last one left, thanks to your tips. Continue uploading such useful videos in the future as well, thanks.

[omega971980]

[Tomdadum]

Yeah man

Stopped the video after each wave and copied it

I am Bronze and actually scored 282!!

Great help!!

[2066Justme]

Lol Ive been bashing my head against this so long O.o pro.

[MightyNonsenseMaker]

FEEEDBACK ON THE BANSHEEES OMG i feel so stupid right now

[MrSurface94]

I got 280 yesss :D thanks a lot for the tips :D

[MrSurface94]

In the beginning you only need two force fields :P

[NinjafizeMe]

It worked even though i lost 3 times as many units! Thanks :D

[solivetunion]

like if u kept trying to move teh screen with ur mouse

[Poteiitow]

the last one is the mothership -.- soo hard xD hahahahah

[diablokoaiua]

with what you see all of their hp :D

[Poteiitow]

@diablokoaiua

go to the options ;D

[otg856]

@diablokoaiua press Alt.

[karel34567]

i won't be the first to notice you can wall off with two forcefields

[dominaters999getsome]

i got to 297 :D battlecruisers are fking hard

[WarMasterX6]

ooo man...im not this good at micro x.x

[mrk1ngsir]

this one is kicking my butt you do it so easy grrr lol

[Itachi56723]

damn my last challenge left.... thanks for making the guides tho :P helped me through all the other ones

[bluejaep]

a tip for all of you watching this

instead of selecting all the sentries/high templars and spamming spell with one

(example: selecting all the sentries and using force fields)

try to use one spell from one unit and another spell from another unit. That way, you will be using mana more efficiently. If you select all of them and keep using spells, what AI does is that it uses the spell with one unit until it runs out of mana. So try to use one spell from one unit.

[bluejaep]

@bluejaep o didnt know he mentioned it in video. I just paused the video and typed my comment. But yeah nice video :) would've been very helpful if i found this early enough..

[ACJacko1]

wow 277

[USMBfrij]

Thank you psy, this made this challenge so easy. I got it gold on my 3rd try and I'm a silver terran XD

[maitrelafouine]

good replay, still I have a lot of troubles with the reapers, and I lost a lotta sentrys.

[bambi112u]

How can you group automatically? like i notice as soon as you click on one sentry it gets all the sentrys

[DontMessWithEmin3m]

@bambi112u double click

[USMBfrij]

@bambi112u double left-clicking a unit will select all units of that type in the area. If i wanna hotkey all my barracks without clicking on each of them, I just double click 1 and then all of them in the area get selected. I think it's whatever is on screen but don't quote me on that.

[peteradamson]

@bambi112u hold ctrl then click the unit

[koalarunner]

Add-wise, Why the Fuck Would I care about the gubernatorial elections of Wisconsin when I don't even live there?

[69KOSIMAZAKI]

One good advice for those who dont know how to get gold in this mission. There is more easy way to do it, you have just to... DESTROY THE ROCKS ON YOUR LEFT AND GET THERE. Getting gold this way is much more easier. After mutalisk attack get you a 2-3 Archons and you'll get 225 kills very easy with even 2-3 sentries left.

Good luck.

[FiveCardArmy]

@69KOSIMAZAKI Thanks! Do you have a replay for the left ramp strategy?

[KingOSketchKomedy]

My sentries dont seem to want to use forcefield on the southeast ramp.

It just sets a move waypoint that they don't use and the forcefields go down about thirty seconds later.

They use them fine on the northeast ramp though so I don't know what the problem is.

[Steve0II]

It takes only 2 forvefields to the ramp at the north guys. It savesssss so much energy.

.

[123kills]

thx

[ImTooJacked]

Lol I got all 300 kills on this :D

[the55898]

What I like to do is quick save. Especially after the reaper wave!

[ary2000]

he makes it look so easy... mustve tried this 100 times but still cant get gold. got all the other ones on gold.. just this one..

[UshoZeek]

They improved the A.I. for challenges :c Need to micro a little bit more often

[xonman890]

lol gg comp

[Krugeroo]

Thanks a lot cause I got gold and, actually, made it to 300 kills which turned out to be maximum :> (last one is Mother Ship which you can kill with only two Archons and a little micro)

[jakebakeacake]

Just got my 'Solid Gold' =D

This one was by far the hardest for me. Cheers Psy

[EmoMario1996]

im still having problems getting it cause the reapers always get me i really need this gold achievemnt so i hope follwing it step by step works

[MajinVegeto89]

OMG I just got 224/225 FUCK!

[Steve0II]

@MajinVegeto89shouldve forve fielded

:D

[OkamiThunder]

Man this challenge was hard but you just make this look retardedly easy

[stickmanofrandomness]

thanks dude! i finally got this achievement

[crookedpinkies]

i lost with ONE tank left to get gold.

[1Airsoftsniper]

i lost with only 2 enemies left.... FML

[1Airsoftsniper]

i lost with only 2 enemies left.... FML

[skylerbruinsmaable]

fucking mutalisks kill me every damn time

[woko696]

ty man this arch is was so hard 4 me

[subzerosnipe]

The trick is to save after every wave if you're having trouble, took me about 30 minutes. It's good to know your hotkeys for feedback (F), Forcefield (F), Guardian shield (G) and to control group your sentries and templars, as said in the video.

[COWP0WER]

Is it just me who think it's wierd that the advanced challenges are by far the most difficult?

[heeloz]

@COWP0WER To be honest, I found them to be by far easier then the challenges four, five, and six.

[xXTheThinkTankXx]

Im liking all of these. Couldnt have done it (so easily) without you psy!

[razzola]

I was having so many problems on this level. Watched this video and one shotted it. Thanks!

[QCThemountain]

one shoted it after watching this!!

[mistulac]

You are awesome!

[Gloir]

hallucinations help

[3qui1i6riM]

To anyone saying "It's too hard!" "I can't get this one!" please remember: They are called "challenges" for a reason! and this one isn't the hardest one!

[Lavundi]

wtf? 11:08 :D :D

[formula90II]

You can forcefield every ramp or entrance with only 2 forcefields. This allows you to preserve energy and in the end have more forcefields.

[20the20]

god damnit i still cant do this

[unclvinny]

Psy is insanely good.

[Alfadore]

@unclvinny Or we are insanely bad x(

[tuestresfat]

>_> didn't realize there was a small choke on the south you can forcefield so easily...

[IceBlood888]

If you guys actually follow what he says you will get Gold. If you follow it and still are stuck then you got some serious lack of any skill. I made about 283 kills the first time trying this. I have achieved all Gold you just need to pay attention and learn the hoykeys, they are there for a reason.

[noopz0r]

@IceBlood888 Even without the hotkeys, after this video I killed 275, keeping in mind that I stop putting any effort after I got Gold, so I agree, if you watched this and still can't make it than you are STUPID... xD

P.S. Great videos, very helpful...

[jetsamjetsam]

i got 275, banshee + helion raped me =\

[sheshahari]

M and M marine and marauder lol just heard that here

[edimenn]

Tnx for the hlp mate.. i did it from first time after seeing the guide with 257 kills, soo easy :)

P.S Without any saves. :P

P.S.2 in this reaply i think you spend to much at force fields

[CHEAT007]

I think its even easier without any

[CHEAT007]

you do not need a single hallucination... at all

[slothc]

just don't forget to save after every wave that went good

THANKYOU!!! Finally got Spectre Portrait... 2nd hardest one for me... other one was Path of Ascension
