StarCraft 2 - SC325 - Socke (P) vs Morrow (T) on Xel'Naga Caverns

[boneboy767]

meh.......that was a total fail vs protoss........i mean rlly....how many banshees??

[dinodude2004]

i dont compare sc2 casters to see which one is better. I honestly just find each of them entertaining in their own way, but mostly enjoy watching all of them so there are endless starcraft videos to stream.

I do enjoy though that crota CONSTANTLY uploads videos XD

[iamsaplaya]

crota by far more technical and informative than huscky and hd

[Akashthepenguin]

i am a sc nub, but when crota says stuff like "12 gateway" or "11 rax" what does he mean? is the number of gateways/rax or the positioning or wat?

[SteinarNord]

@Akashthepenguin a 12 gateway means you get the gateway when you have a worker count of 12 :) since this is a week over due I guess you have already figured it out, but thought I should tell you just in case ;)

[Akashthepenguin]

@SteinarNord

yeah i figured it out, but thnx anyways =P for confirming it

appreciate ur help

[acolvill1]

I'm really loving this double starport banshee play from Morrow. Very well could have worked again if it didn't get scouted. I see a lot of potential here.

[mancamiatipoola]

Hi, Crota, can u show us the average APM of the players at the end of each video? I think many would b interested to see what ability these pro SC players have.

Tnx

A fan :)

[natetheD]

Search Starcraft Freakout..... some funny shit.

[thinkbeforespeaking]

I love how much you are about numbers Crota, I think it is cool.

[SlipperySnake321]

Just wanted to say thanks for putting up so many replays Crota, I really appreciate it. I really enjoy your casting style as you talk about the game without the hyper enthusiasm that some casters use to make up for lack of knowledge. Keep up the critical analysis. Thanks.

[Susanmugen]

Phoenix moonwalk, the anti-banshee

[thewrathofshane]

Glad to see that socke found the correct counter to stop that banshee push.

[markdavidmadden88]

Crota I am sure these are all diamond casts but if there's any chance you could maybe shout out the ranking in the beginning of the video it'd add a nice touch to your already awesome shoutcasts, thanks! Awesome video.

[thewrathofshane]

@markdavidmadden88 Its not a ladder game, its a tournament.

[ellefsoneric]

rock beats paper beats scissors beats banshees

[ComicStud]

Thumbs up for crota teaching us how to send replys

[leeroyjenks]

I think crota works harder than HD and husky... combined.... Seriously man you spit the videos out, and they are all usually pretty good.

[dontdispie]

wow i need to make a couple phoenix's next time i face mass banshees. that was impressive.

[ygyf]

I wish crota make up a good ending speech~

like hd's "signing out" and husky's "i'll c u guys next time"

[GoDiMoNsTeR]

@ygyf he always says "thanks for watching, thanks for listening, I hope you enjoyed this replay by Pedobear and Trollface here on shangri la "

[justinhuey571]

Crota you are my favorite caster of all sc2 casters! You don't miss anything and I appreciate that, others have idle chat that has nothing to do with sc2 and you don't. Keep up the excellent work!

[DontFearGrim]

i love how despite Husky and HD thinking they're working by saying "derr come join the game station", Crota consistently puts out game casts. thanks for doing what you set out to do, crota.

[MrButterednuts]

way to slip up at the end.

[adhi5000andone]

@MrButterednuts dude fuck you. try putting out 10 casts a week and then talk.

asshole.

[shoelace510]

I had to watch that battle twice...once for the ground army and one to watch the air battle. :) So good...

[Wackymulllemeck]

Terran is not op the slightest imo

[RogueCannonGaming]

@Wackymulllemeck I think they have a few advantages that the other races don't, but as for being overpowered they aren't by very much anymore.

[Wackymulllemeck]

fuck yeah socke!

[Wackymulllemeck]

steppes of war got equal amount of expansions

[sc2gg4ever]

compared to game 2, Socke did not get an expansion, so he easily had enough resources to win here

[deepwaterDW]

how do you repair scvs?

[mcspikesky]

@deepwaterDW With another SCV

[deepwaterDW]

@mcspikesky how? lol

[ajtakpetr]

should the terran have a few vikings on top of these banshees, it would be unstoppable

[tenchi77]

hate ads

[Machdude]

Phoenixwalker style!

[WallieTF]

Oh comeon! As fast as a Protoss win over protoss all terrans are totally like "omg now were not op because banshees and marines is like the best setup evah for colossus and phoenix... C'maaan! You still go your stimpack marauders and insane EMPs!

[makeone1234]

@WallieTF zealots with charge and good mircrod temps just eat muraders and mainres

[WallieTF]

@makeone1234 temps: lategame charge: midgame. Your marauder is your first unit after attaching tech lab.

EMP the temps and charge has cd so you can basically still kite them with concussive and stim.

[sc2gg4ever]

@WallieTF yes, lets just take away marauder, stimpack and EMP then it will be balanced finally, my god ...

[WallieTF]

@sc2gg4ever Never said that man, just pointed out marauder is kinda broken.

[agostinho1234]

long time that i dont see phoenix in the game. i think it should be more used. When used in the beginning against terran they forced them to stay in the base more longer.

[sc2ai]

For a Terran Morrow is a whiny bitch. Good game.

[Brickhouseent]

I don't know if anyone watched the tournament on Saturday, but Morrow showed himself to be a real whiny bitch!!

[brushrop03]

Great game. Great scouting by Socke.

[sonofmoe]

Great series - glad to see that the marine/banshee strat can be dealt with effectively by protoss.

[ArchangelCLK]

awesome game!

[luckycandy101]

Even though People thought ZvT was OP and THEY NERFED tanks twice! They still thik there OP........WTF! now this is just people whining when they lose

[TheCynicalClit]

@luckycandy101 thats the great thing in sc2. every race has units that just seem op and still nearly all units are regularily used. just great game design.

[SupaPoopaScoopa]

@luckycandy101 ~Eat some icecream

[stefanatutube]

.. also delay the enemys income.. and even force him to build new drones which cost extra for him..

i hope u get what i mean ;-) What u think bout this?

[stefanatutube]

there is something which just came to my mind..

so we assume the following: TvZ, Z early expanding.. so the T could get himself a fast helion & go harras the expos.. so wouldnt it be a smart move to call a mule to the enemys minerals and than repair the helion with the mule in order to keep it infight longer and thous deal more damage to the Zerg? ofc a good saturation on the base is required but using a mule does only cost energy and no minerals.. u might have a delay in ure income but u also..

[DemonCow5761]

@stefanatutube A mule mining gets you 200 mins, which is two helions. Much better than using it to repair. Why not just bring a 50 min scv? Either way ou probably wont get any repair done though, you can't repair hellion while in fight because your scv will just be chasing after him because he is so much slower than helion. You would have to pull hellion out to be repaired.

[ttQQtt]

you should really watch hdstarcrafts video about how to pronounce "socke"(it's german) correctly, you made me smiley everytime i heard "sook" :P

[Joesterisk]

lol toss imba much?

[WallieTF]

@Joesterisk HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[luckyloser785]

Colourconfused ? :D

[JohnnyDarko01]

POWER OVERWHELMING

[JohnnyDarko01]

Great game

[hotuckfai]

both r good players, probably some friendly match.

[ddrirc]

more and more probes, more and more marines, more and more stalkers, more and more banshees, more and more unit production

loved the phoenix play though

[bendyamin86]

Wow! That was an excellent display of phoenix micro! Love seeing toss rape terran :D

[Joesterisk]

@bendyamin86 lol

[Bobeo]

Isn't the "light blue" teal??

[jatvarthur]

Crota, do you ever sleep? Brilliant work, really love your casts.

[ZeroByDivide]

Crota, your commentating has gotten a lot better. Insight isn't quite on par with your WC3 casts, but that will come with time.

Brilliant play by Socke.

[PrinzMegahertz]

Socke makes TvP looks really easy

[dalenous]

Holy shit Crota is Asian!!?!?!?!

[Kaso1983]

goood cast!

[SuperHeroR]

Socke adapted really nicely. It would've been sad if he lost to the same strategy twice.

[comtraya101]

crota is the hardest working sc2 commentator by far

[ironintel]

@comtraya101 your a dumb cunt. Husky is

[thewrathofshane]

@ironintel Husky is very annoying to listen too so i dont follow him. Crota may make a mistake here and there but hes always streaming new content, and has great knowlege of the game. Crota is one of my fav casters that i know of right now, 2nd to only my bro blitzkrieg.

[Yellowknight888]

Anyone still b*itching about Terran OP?

[japphan]

@Yellowknight888

Yes?

[brainsbranes]

@Yellowknight888 was it ever that OP against toss? i thought it was mostly over ZvT

[mrvolax]

@Yellowknight888

at really high level play like this, it's pretty even. when you get top players who can macro and micro their balls off at the same time, protoss are just good as terran. at medium level play, terran are much easier to win with. protoss simly requires more skillful micro, so it's easy for an average protoss player to let their macro slip.

[sc2gg4ever]

@Yellowknight888 surely ... this whining will never stop, sadly

[Taurenspoon]

dominated

[KelseyDiehard]

I grinned like crazy when I saw the stargate go down. I just love seeing dual starport banshee get completely wtf-wrecked by phoenixes. GG

[QuakinginFEAR]

Wow, morrows been of his game these recent matches.

[hypnotik174]

May i suggest turning the Bass on your voice down?

[jonesenoj143]

morrow is color teal.. @_@ its not blue

[KrunkMissile]

\/  no 1 cares

[dranicks]

second



[brainsbranes]

3 firsts in a row?
