Starcraft 2 - Tactical Command Challenge with a FLAWLESS Gold Rank (0 Units Lost)

[JDJReaver]

its weird how a guy who is painfully ignorant about starcraft manages to get perfect when i have a hard time with it

[rs1n]

For the mutalisks in round 3, you can get away with having only thors. Just put them in a concave around the mutalisks and space them so that the don't get splash damage. Then just micro them back as they take damage. They mutalisks will just clump up and take the splash damage from the thors.

I also took my ghosts over to the hydras and roaches.

[ho33es]

11:43 BROODLINGS :P

[d324rans]

13 people couldn't micro...

[hazuninga]

thanks

[Blackhorndown]

I have one word for you: awesome!

Gonna give it a try now!

TYVM!

[MrFeyerwire]

Yeah I have watched quite a few of his videos and they have helped me so I am grateful but luck does play a pretty solid role in a lot of the achievements but there still is a lot of skill involved and I mean a lot try doing the "Army Of Darkness" achievement on luck wont get ya far.

[PlanetPatricksVideos]

whats the games  called in sc2?

[Conotrant]

Nice, I could get the toss and zerg ones flawless, but the mutas stumped me here b4. Thx!

[stefanel1996]

1 ultra? *sends 1 marine* FLAWLESS VICTORY

[icodanaheim]

THIS FUCKING PISSES ME OFF

[HazyShadows]

Novice StarCraft II player here - great video, very helpful. It's tough to make the jump between Warhammer and StarCraft when you're so used to having infantry taking on enemies that would blow Terrans to pieces.

[shawn17dc]

"they throw zerglings" rofl..

[Demonamic777]

This is bull

[RageOfTheTiger]

@Demonamic777 ? worked for me.

[RunscapeHacks4U]

So you call one set of viking banshees, and the other set of vikings vikings. And wtf is 'rate away'. This whole video just pisses me off but good guide.

[Kastor785]

I followed your idea but I lost two 2units at the r1 3rd the mutalisks just attacked the marines!help me

[Imakenoapologies]

@Kastor785

This is just how the anomalies work, he throws the right ideas in there to help, but just got lucky with flawless. Just skip it and come back later. It's what I did and I ended up getting flawless by doing a few different tactics with marines.

[UnluckyGambler]

i used different tactics still got perfect. i got perfect for all 3 races ;D

terran level 1 is hard, the marines vs mutas part. damn mutas keep ganging up on one rine and i cant pick em up fast enuf. the others are easy as hell though.

[GSPruitt85]

great video thanks hope you got more videos on the others

[vbachris]

you rock! great vid.

[bowwarrenw]

tyvm for this guide

[morphin1]

Wow thank you for this.

Cheers

[heroesdieonsaturday]

You know that the banelings can't even kill one tank? Just let them all hit it and die.

[dana4261]

@11:20 are vikings!!! NOT BANSHEES!! Great video, but big mistake there!

[ike1218CA]

i guess in that time tanks were 50/50, now they are 35/50, so you cant do what you did in the video

[SearchInSun]

Dude i didn't know you guys do Starcraft as well :S... I only bought this game because i had to leave my ps3 behind and only travel with my laptop... I miss black ops :'( 

[HolyknightVader999]

Nice. I go to a SCII video and I get a Vince with Shamwow ad. Just what I wanted to see.

[madebyWHOOPII]

In the first round i always use the ghost for the banelings, just kill as much as possible with your sniper round, and 2 or so will explode on the supply depot, but it wont be destroyed :)

[Forscythe80]

Canada: Like USA, but with 100% less middle finger extended toward other nations.

[MikeRat77]

I followed your stuff hands down, and was up to SILVER RANK by the third round.

[ColdNorthProductions]

WOO CANADA

[desistiel]

nice

[toastmaster7727]

I HATE YOUR CANADIAN ACCENT! GO BACK TO ALMOST-AMERICA!

[binarysoak]

worked perfectly for me, thanks for the great tut

[ROEDERBABY]

It's definitely about luck, but with this tactic whether it's flawless or at 10 lost exactly - doesn't matter. Same prize.

[mcconalds]

i just can't get it done in the first level, mutas keep killing my 8 soldiers.

[Danvzla]

nicelly done man! thanx!

[jrugz93]

0:01



[Aecial]

Getting 0 deaths is easy.

You need to use medivacs to pick up units, dont waste your tank trying to eat up damage.

Just keep the medivacs up front at the start to eat initial damage and send them behind your marines, and the mutas will waste time chasing them (and eventually give up)

then you just pick up the marines you need to

of course use the ghost to snipe

[kkitkatsuprem]

you only need 2 marauders to take out the ultra...

[TheAsylumrunner]

I actually quite enjoyed that ad.

[oldboy911]

4:18 against muta. I set up same as it shows and did stim at first and sniper.

putting 2 groups of marines and tank and one heilon to take damage. But every time, I lose 5 marines there....wtf...

[takeapieandrun]

@oldboy911 same with me... its annoying.

[murf43143]

awesome!

[TheSwoopster]

How the fuck could you manage to not let a single marine die? O.o

[TimEddyHughes]

r shift click click click > r click r click

[Dreadedaries]

my max is 16 units lost

[albusfr]

managed to get flawless on stages 2 and 3, but in stage one the best ive gotten in the mutalisk round is 3 deaths...the marines just keep dying!

[LieutenantLloyd]

sweeeeet! 12:46



[xxdanxexx]

I had fun with the Ultralisk ^_^

Used 1 Marauder and 1 Ghost. Snipe spam at the beginning and Stempack and Cloak/Decloak to lure towards one another.

[arnoboy96]

what is micro managin (spelling?)

[shakuforever]

You can do the Ultra with just the marines and ghosts, no losses.

Have the ghost cloak as close to the ultra as possible, use all your sniper rounds then just have it autoattack. Have your marines engage the Ultra and activate stimpacks, then kite using the movespeed increase. You may need to use stimpacks twice, do NOT let your ultra get in range of your marines whatsoever.

[Lifsun]

Also, to help micromanage, turn your health bars on to always. And you never had any Banshees... WTF. You split up your Vikings and then called them Banshees... You got too many unit names and even expressions wrong.

[Lifsun]

The set up worked for me. I put the left group of Marines to Control Group 1. Right group of Marines to CG2. Ghost CG3. Left Medivac CG4. Got 2 or 3 snipes off. Move back CG1. Move back CG3. Move back CG4. Move back CG2. Done.

[tbyx]

Didn't do it flawless but 5 dead so np, i got my gold, thanks alot!

[Filo011]

what reward do you gain if u do it flawlessly?

[tinit5190]

I like how you talk about the ghost, as though the ghost is the name of a person. Brings me joy at 2 in the morning.

[54g3]

For being flawless you sure as shit don't know your unit names. Makes me think you didn't do this.

[Guaranasmak]

sad to see so many noobs complaining that it doesn't work :P

took me a couple of tries, but i got it after a while :)

tip: save before the battles you have a hard time with

[7dylan77]

for the third round first fight i had moved my hellions behind the storage depot after killing lil zergs then the brood lords sent the broods at the storage depot and hellions killed em with ease no worries of depot getting destroyed, also make sure u keep ur med planes behind ur army so they dont get blown up from hydras on third round

[supadox]

worked flawless thx bro.

[Ned406]

Dont you mean vikings and not banshees?

[umbrae27]

you make it look so easy lol.

[c89b08]

thanks for the help was able to get gold easily.

[AramithSRK]

Just pointing out that Banelings can't hurt friendly units with splash damage.

[medhihond]

it freakin suck man 

[LonathBF]

Nice video, helped me out. Liked the way you explained it, fun and conducted. Keep it up.

[dave1233345]

drop em bk

[kdiz3]

great video, only lost 2 on first try. thanks

[Infinix26]

This is pretty epic man, very good work.

[HedeperkeR]

might sound like a moron, but WHERE do I find this map?

[DreamsOfWastelands]

@HedeperkeR single player, the button that says "play challanges"

[shairyar123]

hey spiderbite, when i installed this game on my pc it told me the story of the first game i think... well im new to starcraft, and that story made me more familiar with the game's story.

[histoirian]

@Spiderbite

Hi there,

I have a huge problem: i've completed the gold challenge for every single challenge in Starcraft 2. The problem is that I can't get the final big achievement for collecting all the gold. I went in my achievement menu and looked at it, and it doesnt consider the first 4 challenge I've done. I did them over again, but it doesnt work. HELP ME!

This question is for Spiderbite, but if anyone else can help me, it would be great!

Thanks!

[Killer99215]

were you realy watching while u did the commentary?

quote: ''I believe their called banshees, could be wrong''

selecting the vikings (with the names in big letters) and u still goes: Banshees.

o well

nice tactics ^^]

[nahcnivla]

on the first round wiht the mutas some marines on the right weren't doin anything

[X00RaR00X]

You can right click the snipe ability so the ghost auto snipes.

[fluffythedestroyer14]

how do u play this? im having problems finding where to play it

[blakester124]

again st the ultra all you need is ghost and 1 seige tank and the marines can do something else.

[NextGenTactics]

@blakester124 meh, didn't really need them elsewhere so I just plopped them behind the tank.

[The0Arbiter]

@blakester124 You can micro with marines for ultra

[sportsbeast80]

nice tutorial took me a few tries but i got it :D

[NextGenTactics]

@Ckozizzle I show all the setup and the gameplay....and ya, it took 13 minutes. What is your point, exactly?

[matthewosterloh]

@NextGenTactics there's always a chop that leaves an idiot comment no matter what you do on youtube lol

[NextGenTactics]

@matthewosterloh Hallelujah!!!

[DrFakkamann]

@matthewosterloh

play with my balllllllllsss yyyyeeehauauaua

[fcbtim]

doenst work as perfect as this say says it does

[NextGenTactics]

@fcbtim Obviously, it is still difficult and you have to get lucky. It's not like you can just go into it and get flawless every single time by doing what I did.

[xshadowxberretsx]

@NextGenTactics my tactics are a bit different and i get 1 unit lost 50% of the time and 0 the other 50%

[MyConflogulous]

@NextGenTactics yea,i did the collosi thing on path of ascension,i lost 2 of them,i even did the plop back thing,the rines still hit them

[Audiocrazed]

banshees..

how much do u play this game?

lol

[madadane123]

All SHAM no WOW

[karumpa]

the closed captioning on this made me laugh so much

[Overkillius]

SEXY GHOST METHOD

1: Press r on your standard keyboard*.

2: Hold down shift on your standard keyboard*.

3: Position cursor on enemies

4a: Click enemies (while holding shift) as if you are playing WoW (it is understood you are a clicker and not one who uses hotkeys) and all of the enemies are your three damage buttons (face rolling/smashing not recommended)

OR

4b: CLICK FEST! (while holding shift)

5: Greater SUCCESS!!!

*standard keyboard required or the test subject will not get cake

[AdvancedFilming]

Wow! Thanks alot, I just made it. :)

First round 7 losses..

Second round 2 losses..

Third round 1 loss..

So I just made the gold medal! Thank you so much! :)

[Pizarroconquer]

sadly way to easy challenge, even for a basic :(

I

[Requisition]

I have no idea what I am doing differently, but I can not make it through the mutalisks without at least one death.

[henry161928]

[peronkop]

Thumbs up if you think NextGenTactics is canadian

[Verteros]

U lucky son of a bitch, i guess i am just not as lucky as u cause by round two i had lose 5 units

[danielczh]

This is just epic. Can't seem to get flawless on mine though, always lose at least 2 on the first round's mutalisk... they annoyingly gang up on a single marine each time!!

But the other rounds were perfect thanks to your guide!

[lolpolice675]

I lol'd so hard when he kept calling vikings, banshees

[timmahtown]

very nice !

[oOXFatalXOo]

Thumbs up if TotalBisquit sent you here :)

[NextGenTactics]

@oOXFatalXOo Tell him we said a big "THANK YOU"!!!

[WintersViesta]

nice vid but in round 2 you only need the marines and the ghost on the ultralisk

[gothicdrmz2]

@WintersViesta Yup, stim em up and micro = dead ultralisk

[ucswiftz]

Through your guide, I got 3 loss, since I always forgot to steam pack my soldier or Snipe target[R] by ghost or forgot pull him back to marine fire-line, sometimes I forgot to arrange thor too. Since I can hardly make any micro success so I put Marauder behind the siege tank to prevent dead red of Marauder, and it also works for me.

[Mowlet]

Subbed because of this, cant play terran worth shit so this helped alot :3

[philkrautter]

there should be a feats of strength achieve for this

[57681333]

Hey Spidey do you plan on uploading a flawless zerg or toss?

[Noahmailloux7]

great thank you subbing for that :D

[ChRiSiMoN]

Awesome!

My lowest was 5 in that one, and now that sounds like suckage to me :D

[Applecore8]

Lol thats awesome, I lost 3 and didn't think it was possible to get a flawless until this guide :)

[spandexninja]

siege tanks do more dps on the ultralisk while unsieged. just to make it a bit easier

[TheNVent]

@spandexninja The tank works as a distraction from the supply depot when the ghost is decloaked

[spandexninja]

@TheNVent when the ghost cloaks the ultralisk will run well within range of an unsieged tank

[TehKevmaster]

netflix can go kill themselves

[solidsnake434]

I followed this thx very much i got it at first try using micro, gotta say i didn't get flawless but i got gold, 6 loses all in the 3 wave of round 1

[Flubugubu]

im following this exact guide to the T but its not fucking working, 6 losses on the third wave of round 1...wtf am i doing wrong!!!!, im popping stimpack right away, ive got everything exactly where you have it, im using ghost until he runs out of energy! it looks so simple in your video but its not working for me atall... did they nerf medivacs or something?

[silokstudio]

nice guide spidey, good of ngt to do starcraft 2 also

[NextGenTactics]

@silokstudio I'm trying...and thanks!

[setoblue22]

Great video

[Kazuun]

Cool guide, gotta admit. Kinda impressive ;)

But....... how can you split up squadron of 9 same air units, one 'half' call Vikings, and other 'half' call Banshee 10 seconds later ? _-_

[NextGenTactics]

@Kazuun lol...I was confused, okay! :)

[TheChicoNerd]

@Kazuun He actually said sorry if I mistake the names.

[Edenvirus]

Nice guild! thx alot

[Kazuun]

@Edenvirus guild? You sure? ;p

[Lorhechapol]

man people love to hate on you dont they...

great job man

[Azutael]

Didnt get flawless, but lost 4 units total, not too bad :)

[sickcakesauce97]

Very good, zero lost, least i got was 2... i dont see HOW u can do this tho, the reason i say this is becuz u can stim a marine and actually micro away from the ultralisk, and for the roaches, since marauders out range and SLOW them u could micro them, while taking no dmg, IF u micro good, marauder vs roach micro isnt easy but possible

[Faith7No7More7]

Gah I just can't get that first muta part. I'd take a brutal achievement over this anytime lol. Marines just drop like flies. Best I've got is 2 lost. You even had some of yours not attacking in this and did it - impressive..

[banido]

0 units lost, impressive.

When I tried this one I lost 5 units, I think I used a similar setup (only a few things like not using the tank to absorb damage in round 1 against the mutas, I think I lost 2 marines in that one). Still got gold though. Just not perfect.

But gonna try your setup =)

[Jayjon81]

this game is fun as hell

[aznfire31]

... i didnt think u'll get the gold with units placed like that... but... awesome :)

[NextGenTactics]

@aznfire31 ???? uhh, you saw the title of the video did you not?

[aznfire31]

@NextGenTactics yea :D i wanna see how u did it... i honestly think u couldnt do it.. but wow :D

[miniturnip]

Spider, what do you use to record PC? I am assuming you use FRAPS, but just checking.

[NextGenTactics]

@miniturnip Yup...

[xapemanx]

good play

[PRONAGE2002]

i want to get this game, im not sure if my computer can handel it, there is this list of stats on the side of my computer that i will type in to this box and if some1 could tell me if i can that would be appreaciated, ok it says i have widowns 7,

intel core i5 processor 650,

6 gb ddr3,

1 tb hardrive,

dvd super multi drive,

and a ATI radeo hd 4350 512mb video card

[miniturnip]

@PRONAGE2002 Everything looks fine except your processor, you didn't state the speed, so im not sure how fast it is. Might not be able to play it on max, but it should run it on medium.

[PRONAGE2002]

@miniturnip my processor is 3.20 ghz

[WhoDoYouThink100]

@PRONAGE2002 Easily, you can play this game.

[PRONAGE2002]

@WhoDoYouThink100 kk ty

[FreshdanceAboy]

Good job try something a bit harder next time though, challenge yourself ^^ its how you will get better.

[Snyds911]

Did you know that the number of banelings in round 1 is not enough to take out the siege tank? In other words, you can just let all of the banelings hit the siege tank and I think the tank still has 4 or 8 hp left. It's what I do, but I still use hellions to draw fire when I'm against the mutalisks.

[MrJargonX]

Sorry for sounding like a noob, but what game type is this?

[numbers12345678910]

Awesome!!! you're on SC2!!

[xxan84]

GJ dude

[PapaDharok]

This game sucks :p

[FlyingZetex]

@PapaDharok some ppl likes this game some ppl likes halo some ppl likes super mario but duuuudeee this isnt on 360!!!! so we can be like HAHAHAAA !! u cant play this on ur xbox muhahahaha

[MrNoahParis]

@PapaDharok  thats your opinion but a lot of people dont think that..

[apfrezende]

why did you put the siege tank against air units?

[NextGenTactics]

@apfrezende I explained why in the video.

[Warkst]

@apfrezende for tanking damage. See what I did there?

[AscendingLeo]

@apfrezende He put the tank there to take hits

[hayabusa881]

Pretty cool!

[MrThedarktiger]

vikings



[westerssss]

totally awesome work 

[StevenZB1]

Do MOAR this helped a Lot

[roxor99999]

you can only use yout htors to kill the mutas in round 3 if you micro them

[Zemtex2451]

MOre of these videos about the challenges! :D

[prefuffle]

i might try this game out ive heard alot of good things about 

[MarikChan]

"epic" is suddenly = to easymode task? you seriously have no micro and/or knowledge of this game whatsoever.

[NextGenTactics]

@MarikChan Okay troll...ya, I'm not expert like you and I admit it. 0 losses for me is still epic in my book. You got your opinion, I got mine.

[XxDirtyxXxShiznoxX]

@NextGenTactics He isnt really a troll but more of someone who wont get laid... ever.
