I'm glad I've got my popcorn from watching The Marvels!
sees the first game
this'll be fun
Raven missle is good but not a key in game 3 though – Maple's army supply is only half of Cure's when that fight started. Between 28:15 and 29:20 he couldn't pull himself out of the Adept glory and lost the prism and almost all newly built units (6 adepts) in this one minute, resulting in his army supply went from 32 to 35, while Cure's MMM grew from 30 to 68. This was when Cure had 20+ less workers. It's the basic stuff-making difference between a real pro and who isn't.
Shocked cure lost that first game. Awesome play
From the lofty heights of 🌩*plat*🌩 I have a question: does the new tempest buff mean the rush time for the tempest is way faster if you don't proxy? how many seconds slower is a buffed tempest from your base than an old tempest from a proxy a few bases out from the enemy base?
Marauders are such a hard counter to Stalkers. It hurts so bad watching Protoss players respond to Marauders by simply feeding them more Stalkers.
Stop fanboying maxpax, he's not even in the game 😂
that first game was an absolute treat hahaha amazing
that moment when cure wanted to counterattack but the entire p base was already destroyed was pure gold 😀
Mine's require zero actions APM to use. I don't think they should be in SCII. People say terran require high amounts of micro. Well, that's not very true since a lot of the damage is by AUTO fire from mines. Without mines i could guess zero PRO terrans in SCII top 10.
all other units in the game require a committed action from the user. As of now. Terran is not a balanced race.
hella loco
That nexus was the most total hp per mineral he could spend. Accounting for the nexuses health and the battery overcharge. It was used perfectly to soak up the marines.
I’m Canadian so I have a bias but I think Maples needs some more screen time he put in a seriously solid set against cure.
Maplez used a different skin each game. Can you auto rotate your skins?
That first game looked like a slap in the face.
wasn't the first game premature? I mean.. you can spam alot of marines to take out those flying units.
gotta downvote for the title. I wanna see an upset with a title like that.
We see so much red and blue; the gold protoss looks pretty sick
I love games with protoss
Lowko: Cure doesnt die to stupid stuff.
Maples : so if he dies the strat is smart. Got it.
Maplez did the reasonable move of going cheese/all-ins and not a long drawn macro game. The number of events requiring attention is lower in the early game, where I see the Pro/GM gap is at its minimum. The no-attention on the widow mine in the last game showed the chaos in which Maplez's APM could no longer cope.
07:34 best timing ever!
I really love all the crazy stuff we've been seeing lately. That as really fun to watch.
Maplez was great.
It is good to see new or unique strategies really push the top level players.
stalkers are fun unit to play but when you compare them with hydras/roaches/marines/tanks its like
50 stalkers shot once killing two units and half of them dies xD
Im a zerg and this made me mad
Watched this on Pig's channel, but that game 1 was so good, I had to see your take as well. 😀 Just wanted to mention that in that game Maplez also did some solid Adept micro, baiting mine shots from the high ground, the man was really on it.
Cure-ious haha see what you did there😅
Hey just wanna say that the trid map alcyone isnt pronounced al-sai-oh-nee its al-kee-oh-nee:)
nice
Your rewind is so fucking annoying each time. And it happens almost every game!!!
28:07 Lowko at his best
All build have same size on ground or what !?
😶🌫
It's like Maplez also won game 3 in a strategic sense but was not able to convert it into victory
Do you pig and uthermal work together on these videos? 1 after the other casting this and you all do a great job
Lowko latley i have been watching your videos and catching up on the sc2 community. Thank you so much for putting out such quality content, your commentary is on point and also funny. If i can give you this feedback, you are my go to watch after I have made myself food. I think zerglings morphing into banelings is a punishment, since their name is "pain"lings 🙂
Keep it up!
Those tempest were great and the glaived adept were truly spicy. So much damage but stalker followup really let it down
It's like watching a bronze player go against a grandmaster. Toss player is sloppy compared to others.
That 3rd match was crap! Cure was down 2 bases and still won?! That anti armor missile was ridiculous!
Parting op !
