08-09 MST Grp 12 Set 1: Light v Tempest

[sfpastramiking]

If light split his marines he couldve killed the probes while chasing the goon...just saying.

[JeepTerran]

My faith in dragoons has been restored...

[Kelekkis]

Cholera <3 where are you? :(

[couchpatatoe51]

HERO GOON!

[TonyJ93]

what is a shield battery... never played sc1

[IncredibleGoliath]

@TonyJ93 It is a battery for shields.

[SindarinElealar]

@TonyJ93 Basically, Shield Battery is a building with energy; the energy recharges shields at an amazing rate (though unit being recharged can't attack while it happens). Often used in low economy games to empower your small armies, and lategame to go "over 200 supply" with mobile high shield units (generally Carriers).

[TonyJ93]

@SindarinElealar thanks!

[megastr888]

I miss this duo... =(

[SirRaspberry]

For Aiur !

[KTFlaSh96]

wat... the fuk...

[20kcritsyo]

miss you cholera

[DwwwD]

could've won easily if he just rushed the goon with everything he had. He would become trap against the mountain eventually and die

[uremum234]

Holy shit dat dragoon!!

[TheDwarvinator]

hooray for reddit!

[NBrown48]

that. was. ridikalus.

[Youdumbkids]

easy to say now but send 3 marines at the goon and 3 at the mineral line and i think its a win for terran

[TheeAntiFOB]

I bet Tempest's favorite dish is crab MANgoon

[justadued]

@edenite you mean when they got into first person view?

[edenite]

@justadued nah the colours of each race change from cyan and red and vince versa. I found out that they change spectator views which explains it. :)

[KnightOfAmarCostume]

GODOON!

[xTheHo]

that goon ks'ed everyone :(

[YukonExpatriate]

MANGOON!

[Teh4Saken1]

that goon became the first immortal lol

[airwave2oo8]

@Teh4Saken1 epic coment :DDD



[Alex06CoSonic]

@Teh4Saken1 It alraedy was an immortal

[HASHlRAMA]

that's chuck Norris in his dragoon halloween costume....

and the shield battery was never used.

[HASHlRAMA]

alpha as fuck,yea im talking abotu the goon xD

[BeggarSyu]

This is probably one of the best comebacks iv seen. This and Firebathero's comeback against savior.

[jibaroo]

damn

[FuriosoDrummer]

Hero Dragoon.

Amazing.

[NappyHeadedHorse]

shield battery ftw

[whatjamacallit]

that goon killed over 1500 minerals worth of units

[lllshokoboylll]

@whatjamacallit

actually.. like 2000

[KopaleKopale]

I love how he made you both eat your words "theres no way hes coming back" #LOL

[Saatoko]

and from that point onward, out popped an Immortal from the SCII design team!

[FrigoCoder]

Fenis is dead. This Dragoon can not die.

[annyongSC]

everytime I hear "OMFG LIGHT IS FUCKING AMAZING" I watch this game to renew my Flash fanboyism

[elan2000]

@annyongSC

Flash's strategy is very, very boring to watch, so I don't really like him.

[HumanStrategy]

epic fucking game

[unihumi]

It still is an awesome VOD!

[andrysek57350]

33 kill by 1 dragon omg Oo !!!

[Wonexwo]

In Korea, the best SC player gets the girls

[FrigoCoder]

All Hail The Mangoon

[Brillmongot]

SPAM DAT GOON BUTTON

[chrisbary]

"goon range out ranges marines by two grids" LOL super GOON 33 KILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sweet comback!

[cowfordflorida1]

LOL HERO DRAGOON

was that fenix?

[1979Tron]

What is a "cheese" game?

[d0lphinsafe]

Cheese refers to a recklessly aggressive strategy in the early minutes of the game that aims to catch the opponent unprepared and is usually an all-or-nothing gambit by the attacker.

[SteelManJ]

@1979Tron a cheese game is one where an opponent will rush very early on as to stop the game for going to long (generally done by weaker players with less apm)

[xxxyyy143]

the terran should have killed as much probes as he can coz the dragoon was invincible with the range and the battery.. and at the beginning the terran made a mistake sending so much scv's to the protoss base.. and when building the bunker he lost 3-4 scv's for nothing..

[wargodEx]

lolololol progoon

[hezor98]

I though that terran will win, but toss game with very good goon and probes micro was kickass

[sunc4n]

33 kills...^^

[DanteSitwell]

Rambo Dragoon

[YouTroller]

Haha omg nice... cheese phail ftw.

[RedZone231]

wow

[vennuss2]

mangoon FTFW!!!!!

[kcaz1900kcaz]

greatest 'goon ever

[Temuho]

dragon hero!!

[Narrim]

This never gets old.

[artman40]

Mangoon backed up with shield battery and probes makes an awesome game!

[MrAndersonmm]

I had to come back and re-watch this game. So glad i could find it. So freaking pimp.

[R0adh0g16]

mega epic fail

[chrisbary]

that's top five pimpest play for 2009 already, i love dragoon micro

[OminouString]

Best game ever!

[coldinfusion]

33 KILLS!!!!

[CgSquall]

That dragoon was Chuck Norris in Protoss form.

[crunchtoast10]

woah,

this was set 1, goon got 33 kills, and tempest spawned at 7 o'clock

1337

[hbar1051027]

why is 7 o'clock position significant?

[lemonbone]

most ridiculous sick dragoon i have ever seen!!

[deemawnlawrd]

wait a second. is one of the announcers that guy from "how to play brawl like a man"?

[Kwijibo87]

That goon will destroy everything in 2009 ok?

[anathel]

That was so epic

[Dubanx]

Are you sure that wasn't fenix?

[justinyh7]

first person view. normally the commentators watch it where they can see everything. in there it was only what tempest could see.

[TheBlackOrchid]

yea because spectators swapped who they were watching to look at resources

[AznLeeman]

I guess that dragoon was borrowed from Reach..

[ejacu1ator]

You can change the colors of your units to green and enemies to red. The pro-gamers always do it because red is the easiest to see on the minimap and I guess its just a tiny bit easier to play with 2 set colors than 12 variable ones.

I believe the keys to do it are alt+tab+tab

[ejacu1ator]

My bad, its shift+tab+tab

[deemawnlawrd]

its the same button combo that removes terrain from the minimap, you do it repeatedly till you get your colors just so.

[crorens]

it moves to first person view to one of the players, he sees colors different than the observers do

[Jiiidaaa]

that was... awesome

[Caesar512]

a battery! now that's thinking on your feet. well played.

[cloudie88]

That goon was absolutely SICK!!!

[Chrijz]

Thanks. Very exciting game. Battery was great :)

[ILuvhFood]

The goon typed in "power overwhelming" Smart ^.^

[omgLordLituslol]

I can't believe I missed this match...  I've been watching religiously but somehow this one slipped by me

absolutely awe inspiring goon micro... and winning the game without finding your opponent's base is just amazing

[HatakiSagara]

Thats fked up, they put Chuck Norris in a goon costume

[LAXWILDthing911]

MANGOONNNN!

[GenesisTwilight]

Are we sure that Dragoon isn't Fenix in disguise?

[qulqunick]

@GenesisTwilight it might be being given instructions by Bruce Lee.

[uberkidx]

don't u all c it? Reach was actually piloting that goon with a remote somewhere and man-gooned tat victory!

[allenamenbesetzt]

if that goon was a hero in warcraft 3, he would've been able to onehit everything in the end, even battlecruisers.

[Robotman42]

The goon actually isn't imba; in fact, goons are disadvantaged vs marines because their damage is explosive and marines are small. Light DID force Tempest to pull the probes several times even with the shield battery up.

[uzernam302]

lmfao.. wow.. imba goon.

[serfyi]

the best shield battery use ever! hahaha...

[ChristianTarsney]

Uh...two medics = 150 mins for an academy, 100 mins for a refinery, about 50 mins in opportunity cost from the SCVs mining gas (and more, which I won't even count, from the SCVs building buildins) and 100 mins for the medics themselves = 8+ fewer marines for an army running off 4-5 SCVs worth of mining and barely keeping Tester from getting his econ and base back online as was. By the time the first medic popped there would have been another gate and 3-4 more zealots/goons. So, no, not really.

[megastr888]

PEOPLE!!! don't you guys get it!? thats not a real man-goon! its Reach in a costume! he hacked into the game and decided to help Tempest!

[ToothyMcshark]

Imba goon. Christ.

[Golden2Talon]

one battery and the goon is imba

[MakunouchiPPo]

Isnt that Fenix the dragoon? lols

[megastr888]

learn how to spell

[HumanStrategy]

U has a gud gramar skells^^

[Draffut2003]

"I don';t know if there is any way Tempest can come back, but who knows, maybe he'll surprise me"

That he did sir, that he did.

[DARTAGNANS170]

CHEEEESE!!!!!!!!!!

[SCWarkos]

Insane!

[ChurchisaCult]

Lol, that guy must be the new icon of ridicule among his Gosu pals.

[kalorathekau]

33 kills! "Hero Goon" or "ManGoon" sound like understatements!

I'm not sure there IS a word to describe the epicness of that Dragoon!

This had better be a pimpest play!

[BenvolioZF]

guess who my favorite toss player is now :P

[IndyPromoter]

Finally someone used a shield battery

[Ixxros]

Great play from Tempest.

[Lucifur666]

That goon may have had 32 kills (I don't count the one after gg) but that shield battery totally had like 25 assists!

[Ixxros]

Wthhhh????

Stupid Dragoon!

[artty132]

cholera and rise = the best dual commentary in Starcraft commentary history!!!

[kalorathekau]

Any combination of Moletrap, Rise and Cholera is epic ^_^.

[messitup]

that was a fucking MANGOON! lol, i love this amazing comback, and Choleras so called Mangoon

[ZergrushEddie]

Without a doubt, that should be a Pimpest Play. I don't even think a Carrier usually gets to 33 kills...

[kikez1]

Fenix, The Dragoon.

[Turnerlb3]

lmao, hell yea that was Fenix! It all makes sense now. Hero Goon ftw

[remorsecode]

straight epic

[YonekXYZ]

very nice. i think shieldbat is often usefull to survive chease.

[msiggz]

That was one of the most epic games i have ever seen, its right up there with july drone drilling best

[ZkilfinG2]

This is why you should never give up no matter how hopeless it seems. Epic epic epic!

[MrJoeSmith2]

I like how every once in a while shield batteries get a chance to shine. And man did that one shine in this game!

[Elsydeonz]

holy hell that dragoon rocked my world xD

[Broockle]

lol fun, terran did pretty bad macro. But it was fun seeing this outcome

[gjeagrkjsegrkesagrhs]

wow, never seen everything like this before, 33 kills on a Dragoon, man ... :D

[caelumarisen]

MANBATTERY

[teh0rc7mac]

Every1 praises the goon, but what about the shield battery? that was a HERO shield battery! it was like an asian protoss design shield battery!

[furrer08]

yeah, and blizzard is cutting it in sc2....

[Micobeast]

shield will regenerate faster so less use

[vixaroth]

He broke the game.

[xNewb4Lyfe]

That was amazing, wish I had those skills, damn.

[AlmightyDevin]

That was actually pretty god damn entertaining. Props to Tempest with that Dragoon.

[Womack51]

This Goon was certainly non other than the re-incarnation of the great Tassadar.

[HatchumoSC]

actually phenix was a goon and he was cooler anyway

[axdurian2]

his voice was cool

[mrsocko551]

love this game

[soulhunger1]

Holy shit, what a game! I was wondering why this had almost 20k views, now I see why.

I smell a pimpest play. No, not *a* pimpest play. THE pimpest play of 2009. And only 3 days into the year.

[Lunarion12]

Man, great game :D

[ThenamelessDude]

MAN-GOON! MAN-GOON! ( well not as much impact on comments but imagine ether the korean commentators or cholera doing it )

[gameboyredpee]

best goon, EVER!!!

"i have returned, WITH VENGENCE!!!"

[DILDOBITCH]

Jesus, that was an amazing game.

[Deathman1091]

Holy shit...THAT was epic

[Ciscommander]

Why do they keep talking about cheese? Im not very good at ladder SC so obviously i am far behind pro. any1 care to explain?

[Gagigagu]

Cheese = winning using a cheap strategy xd

[DrunkZergling]

Cheese is a build order that sacrifices the long term economy for a surprising early advantage. Normal terrans would build defenses in their base, get siege mode and try to contain the Protoss until late game. Cheese terrans try to use barracks level units to finish the game early.

[BetaJerm]

That wasn't a goon, that was a pair of balls with a gun.

[funkyshade]

that was freaking master

[PrimePro]

6:22 core finishes seconds before pylons downed. epic moment

[ImNgamer]

I don't know if a Goon Hall of Fame exists, but if it doesn't yet, I know who should be the very first entrant!
