  • really bad game bad played by both opponents. July coul had won the game easy, he had 3 bases and constantly killed boxers army in the first part of the game. Boxer is often lucky against july

  • 14:14

  • 8배럭이잖아 임아 ㅄ해설세뀌

  • Wtf? Lurker takes ten trillions shot and takes 0 damage

  • @Silverknite1 because of the dark swarm

  • @Silverknite1 fail

  • Now thats a real game....

    GOod job on both parties :)

  • this was goddamn painful to watch. Julyzerg was just miles off his game, making mistakes left and right, and not switching techs at the right times to counter his opponent's units. The second science vessels hit the field, you start popping out scourge, not just making more defilers to lose to irradiate

  • @firedrake110

    What the hell are you talking about? I think you need to watch again.

    He had a solid game until the lucky mine on the lurkers. He could NOT risk tech switching then because he had to macro up more units at that point. Also, you can look up a POV version of this game. He was a bit starved for gas.

    I'm pretty sure compared to You AND Me, he knows much better how to counter. It's much harder when you are lacking resources and going against fucking Boxer lol

  • @truekoreanlover the vessels are out, the game is over. He was starved for gas because he forced his macro, trying to power through a bad situation by just having more units that all still die to what he's facing down. Also - Queens. Not singular, multiple... XD and my comment said to make scourge, not to pull a complete tech switch. He tried to fight with lurkers against science vessels and tanks =(

    I had to rewatch this to reply, since the comment I had there was from a year and a bit ago lol

  • @firedrake110

    Yea, sorry about the year late comment :D

  • omg why he quit? he had lots of other bases O.o

  • @Fotrezas

    Terran's exponential power growth of an army makes streams of units rather weak to them.

    Unless he could macro out an entire army and get them Together <---keypoint

    there is no way he would be able to withhold an attack

  • @MaxPlanck011 dude he's probably like the 2cnd best player in the world.

  • Boxer is just a fuckin beat, my god.

  • I'm curious why they don't seem to try to attack each other's base that much early in the match...they have their armies battle it out and such.

  • july looks like a panda

  • julyzerg deserves a big fat cookie

  • thank god they are getting rid of the defiler in SC2, it's so OP

  • how is it over powered. If ur terran u can always irradiate them like how boxer did and if ur toss u can always sotrm the units inside the swarm so i dont get how its so over powered.

  • I like how Snickers is sponsoring this match.

  • July_zerg is a sunken goon

  • fuk u

  • Anyone know why that lurker wasn't taking damage under the dark swarm at around the 18:30 mark? I always thought dark swarm was vulnerable to siege mode

  • I know lurkers take damage under siege and swarm, I don't have an explaination.

  • but burrowed lurkers don't take damage from splash while under dark swarm.

  • 1 month later... XD

    burrowed units in dark swarm don't get hurt.

  • 12:08 -- that was a brutal ensnare, anyone know how one should avoid something like that in a TvZ game?

  • honestly you shouldnt see queens that often in TvZ for it to be that annoying.

  • shoot down the queen? yamato works nicely cause its a one hit kill and it cant miss.

  • Well queens have become ground units and I think they replaced vessels with a unit called the Nighthawk. The Queen has slightly different capabilities such as dark swarm (a defiler special) and the night hawk has something called a hunter seeker missile along with its detection capabilities.

  • Certainly atypical (?) gameplay from both players. Perhaps using the "free" game to innovate a bit?

  • 21:23 onwards. LOL neither side noticed each other.

  • Or maybe Boxer stayed here just to scout

  • name map please...

  • RPoint-.-

  • i know that queens have changed into land units, but don't know about SV's

    wow such a late reply

  • lol love the commentators!! even if i dont understand what theyre saying XD, btw that lurker at 18:05 was doomed

  • he needs scourges!

  • Drone control WTF

  • lol such a fatty

  • Its even more impressive because bothplayer are not doing their bests. Boxer's strat was quite impressive. Gg

  • i think boxer is good with long hair ...he is been doing bad since his air force haircut .../short hair brought him down .i think

  • or maybe the fact that he wasn't able to practice as much

  • screw the airforce!Armed forces ruins everything, he should come back to play starcraft.

  • He plays StarCraft at the moment, he's been back for a while.

  • Really?I haven't seen any vids of his matches.

  • Yeah, VioleTAK doesn't upload them, but if you look over the commentator idol, you'll see one of the contestants doing a match of him and some random noob. It was very recent, mid January I believe.

  • thanks

  • Mhm, good luck finding 'em all, though >_>

  • what does M&M mean

    (please answer on my channel comments section :p)

  • marine n medics

  • don't siege moded tanks do damage on units under dark swarm?

  • yea but only the splash, not direct.

  • man that was awesome man adn nice starargy

  • LOOOOOOOOOOOL?!?!?!?!?!? Drone macro?!?!? ROFL AWESOME!

  • Wow, how young was JulyZerg in this game? shit..

  • And I never said pros don't use spider mines, just not as much in TvZ matchups. 'Cause after all, have you noticed this is a TvZ, and not a TvT? Actually watch the match before you start jumping on comments.

  • Hm...I've always thought the refs chose the race of the player they're "silently" rooting for. I've noticed this quite frequently; for ex, if it's Jaedong vs Midas, the ref will favor JD more since he has a better rep...

    And notice how they sometimes "ally" the player they're "rooting" for...=D

  • they do that so you can tell which player is which. the one they allied will have a yellow outline, the opponent will have a red one. At least i'm fairly certain that is why they do it.

  • wow look at that micro by july

  • Like Violetak stated, this match seemed more entertainment oriented, after all, in serious matches, they wouldn't invest even the slightest mid-game cash on "non-used" strats (Queens, Vulture Mines, etc.). But man, that was an amazing match. =D

  • pro games they do use those though i just watched a few.

  • Queens, sure. But pros use spider mines all the freaking time. Like every game.

  • Terran music is more cooler.

  • why the terran music and not the zerg music I've always wondered...

  • the observers and ref just go random and which ever race they hit is the music that plays not because they favor T over Z music

  • WTF kinda math are you using? Zerg is not "mathmatically" the best race... It's all opinion.

  • Actually, it might be the strongest race mathematically in terms of unit cost, damage, speed, building cost etc. But it's harder to play, and taking advantage of this is so difficult that really, the races remain very well balanced.

    Personally, I have no idea, I don't look into numbers!

  • not even close bud.

  • you are noob. lol

  • well sometimes i do use lurk rush against terran players but i don't believe that under 5 minutes i can make some lurk and rush the base :o that's not damn possible... and obviously genuis sloth is a noob

  • I believe you 0%.

  • Need a light?

  • i like the ensnare lurker attack, havent seen that in a while

  • dude if july zerg instead of running after boxers scv and tried to make an extractor on boxers vespane that wouldve helped july a LOT

    at

  • this shit is too intense it makes me sleepy and not wanna play anymore

  • Hahahaha nope It is not a friendly match it is for 3/4 match

    The winner will be the 3rd and the loser will be 4th -.-

    So They must play seriously to get 3rd

    I am Korean so I can understand what's on there

  • A special ability by the science vessel called Irridate (an ability that quickly reduces the health of biological units around it until they die) or as long as the ability lasts on said unit

  • What is that green stuff that science vessel sprays???

  • julyzerg is one of the pro players to be able to win against boxer

  • and fatest

  • Even if it was just a friendly match, it was pretty awesome. Hooray for Irradiated Sci Vessels ^_^

  • This is actually the first video in which I've seen Queens used. I would think that they'd have been effective en masse using Spawn Broodling against the tanks. Boxer's Science Wessels were doing a similar thing with Irradiate.

  • lol science wessels!!!!!!!!!

  • prove it

  • these players are at 400 actions per minute (for all of u math dummies thats around 6-7 actions a second) their macro is amazing and they are constantly multitasking worker production, supply management, microing small units, following a strict build order, keeping aware of all drops that amy occur, keeping track of ur opponents build order and its counters, along with a dozen other things that keep them busy. Lim yo hwan (boxer) is the legend of south korea because he does it all so perfectly.

  • Over 200, usually.

    Not 400. They CAN get up to 500 or so, but they don't keep it constantly that high. I've seen videos of their hands. 6-7 actions per second would sound like a high-pitched buzz.

  • 6-7 actions.. wowowee. thats fast, a minute is 360-420 actions.... i cant stay tht long. my fingers would break..can you give us the link of the video u've watch? tnx

  • how come no one makes Gaurdians or BCs?

  • Because that's not how ZvT goes. It's much more cost-efficient to spend your minerals the way they do. If you watch a lot of current professional ZvT matches, they'll look quite similar to this.

  • If ya go BC's zerg can swarm and hydralisk your BC's and if you go gaurdians terran will irridiate them and maybe wraiths also :)

  • boxer owned july nice.

  • boxer did a nuke in one game where he hid in a crack of cliffs, and then toss couldnt see and was like wtf xD

  • Hey isnt "Stimp Packs" something like Doping or EPO?

  • exactly ^^ ... what you do is give them some drugs ... bad for health but kinda turns them into zealots until the speed wears off

  • men Protoss,zerg,terran its just a cycle theres no powerful race it depends on your micro and strat. men but basically upon my knwledge terran is far more the most dominant race of them all. This best describes each Race. Protoss is power Zerg is Numbers Terran is Strategy. But of course all of them have startegies but its really really hard to handle a terran units but its far more effective for micros If you contain you gain best wishes for starcraft players

  • Zerg is numbers, yes and slaves (since they infest all who stands in their way) Protoss is Strength, and Terran is, but what i mean is that Terran is Range! Please name 1 unit except firebat who doesnt attack melee?

  • scv XD

  • Have you looked in the games data or how can you know that?

  • Actually, Firebats have splash not range. It may seem that they have range because of how far the fire extends

  • if firebats are ranged firebat can't do a shit under swarms

  • It can hit things from a *slight* distance (like it can hit two zerglings at once if lined up properly), but it is actually classified as a melee. Example: It can hit things inside of Dark Swarm.

  • SCV .... thats all ... i mean you really cant count the vulture bikes mines ... only 2 terran units who can do melee

  • SCV :]

  • protos are by far the strongest team to play with

  • So is your mother

  • holy crap one of the players is really really fat

  • he is fat because he plays so much starcraft^^

  • lol....i've never thought of that....good point

  • savior is not so good anymore he played once against bisu 3-0 for bisu pwned

  • Savior is ranked number 1 this year, out of the entire league (not just zerg), with 2010.8 points. Also, for reference, Bisu is second with 1969.2 points.

  • he's good but he's rule is over i heard

  • Damn, July should have built scourge. With his skill at micro, he could have destroyed the Science Vessels easily.

  • can someone tell me who is the best 'zerg' this year?

  • GGPLAY !

  • I wish they would use spawn broodling against the tank rush

  • You can't spawn broodlings in mechanical units, dur. Or did you mean something else, and your sentence was unclear?

  • tanks can be taken out by queens, as can dragoons and other units like templars

  • You can spawn broodlings in tanks? Then why did I get a message that said you can only use it on biological units?

    Or do Ensnare and Parasite somehow magically do damage to only tanks?

  • It's non-robotic units. Probes And Reavers.

    Tanks, goliath have pilot,drivers and such.

  • spawn broodling works on tanks

  • Hey why can it be that i never see people using Nukes in Tournament, MSL or any other youtube videos?

  • Mostly because pros are insanely good at defending against them. It's hard for Terran to get a successful nuke off. I've only EVER heard of two people to do it in a pro game, and that was a while back. Elky used a nuke in the semi-finals once (against a Korean, but I forget who) and then to get revenge for Koreans, Boxer beat Elky in the finals with a nuke. Boxer also had an awesome nuke rush in a TvP game. Basically the only fighting was two nukes, and then game over.

  • actually you can i've seen it. It's weird

  • what game is it?

  • as 12:23.. JulyZerg is da Shit

  • wat duz dark swarm (frm the defiler) do exactly?? gd game tho

  • It protects all the units inside the swarm from ranged attack. It protects enemy units, too. However, most Terran players use marines and zerg units inside the swarm are safe from marines' attack.

  • cheers

  • Protects against all projectile except for melee.

  • if u really want toknow more about dark swarm of deflier, go watch more of savior's game, his deflier usage was god like

  • veeeery nice use of the Ensnare ability to counter Boxer's amazing marine micro skills

  • JulyZerg is fucking amazing.

  • honestly, i havent seen a terran lose to a zerg in a pro game for ages ...

  • Yah out take a look at savior then, also july because he on fire lately

  • Watch Savior games :)

  • Dude, obviously you don't know sAviOr

  • I know him but I've only seen his games vs. bisu, firebathero & iris ... :)

  • cool, stacraft the best game

  • there are things unfair in broodwar like since the coming of medics a dozen unit of terran with like 3 vessels are almost invible against zerg if they (zerg) don t spnd too much in dark swan or lurkers

    Ok boxer is a good player but i think in starcraft the races were more balanced though...

  • I think it's pretty much balanced as it is. As a zerg you're supposed to tech to defilers just like terran is supposed to tech to vessels. Both are a must.

    I don't know how old this replay is, but zerg isn't supposed to mass hidras against terran now since tanks are able to do damage under the swarm whereas zerglings are either out of their range or they "blow up on impact"(i think it's one of the reason july lost). ultralisks are also better.

  • n1c3 g4m3rs

  • terran is the strongest yo...

  • wonder if Park Sung Joon had enuf resources to go air... (JulyZerg)

  • why don't I ever seem to see queens in pro games? It kinda makes the races seem a little imbalanced- but only because you see terran use every single unit and spell they have, but protoss and zerg don't seem to use some- like protoss scout, for instance.

  • Scouts, in particular, are extremely expensive, and easily beaten by other units. Dragoons are generally more effective anti-air and MUCH better at anti-ground. Queens cost 150 gas, which is generally better used on Defilers or Lurkers, at least against Terran.

  • queens are 100 gas

  • they cost too much gas man..

  • I saw one today but it was a shadow of one right at the end of a match not even full screen, i think it was boxer

  • i mean being used against boxer, i think it was savior who actually used it

  • Nice game

  • " terran's the strongest but hardest to use."

    i crack up whenever i see this, starcraft is one of the most balanced RTS games since the 90's, and is still going the only thing that unbalances the racial matchups are the maps, and the few progamers who have their stages of divinity i.e. Boxer, Nada, Iloveoov, Julyzerg, and now Savior. GG btw, love both players styles

  • lol wheres his mutas?

  • july isn't using the regular zvt BO either

  • neither was boxer. didn't dual rax til real late

  • that's a standard build. he wanted to incorporate medics really fast.

  • great match, exciting from start to finish

  • exactly... he was forced to mess up

  • july didn't have that game. he had crappy swarms cuz his defiler were irradiated. it was swarm now or die without swarm. plus that mine trap was godly.

  • thats exactly right! saying he lost because of 'bad swarms use' is BS because he just rush swarmed because of Boxer's nonstop irradiation.

  • some scourges would've been nice though =/

  • july totally had that.

    he fucked himself with

    the bad defiler move..

  • Very good video. Boxer will always stay sexy.

  • that was sweet, too bad july slipped or he coulda won. boxer is too crazy. they both are!

  • when you play against a progamer of that level like july and boxer, you have to know that even the smallest mistake means losing. they will take advantage of everything without hesitation by pure instinct. july didnt keep his concetration and boxer didnt waste a second to throw it back at him, thats what progamer means ^_^

  • Good friendly match. It's easy to tell that they both wanted to put on a good show for the crowd, and that they did. Keep them videos coming VioleTak! Thank you.

  • I think this game was won by Boxer than than lost by July, that part was perect mine placement from the Terran side which Boxer is well known to win games for.

  • Zerg shoulda won that game.. a costly error with the lurks going to their death in the mines

  • Love this video, and love you Violetek. Thank you.

  • mine placement at 14:15 is so cool!!!

    omg Boxer is annoying the crap out of July with irradiating his defilers every time lol!

    Boxer is the king.

  • lol.. yeah i know... :D actually all expert terrans are annoying.. lol.. terran's the strongest but hardest to use.

  • I think Zerg are the strongest when played perfectly like here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v­=-gcBqcstXV8

  • Terrans draw lots of zergs attention by irradiating, I think zerg should do the same with small lurk drops, or even fake drops, that way dispersing the terran force and making succesful swarms. a good way of making lurk drops is having about 5 queens and doing broodlings to tanks that could kill the lurks in the expansion area. three lurks and two or one defiler to use dark swarm when other tanks arrive.

  • love it! qualification or not it doesnt matter coz Boxer and Julyzerg arent two players to give up on satisfying the fans! this is one entertaining game!
