Serral reminds me of a qoute from Mensk:
"I'll be out there, waiting for you to slip up. Beczuase sooner or later you will make a mistake... And when you do... [I'll kill 41 of your SCVs]"
At the beginning: "Serral never makes a mistake."
*Brenda immediately attacks Karen*
Society of Robots Brenda noticed: Karen has the same Outfit, valid and understandable reaction.
XD
before the lairagen!
Is Serral member of you?
Ofc its a Karen she complained to much (wasnt a mistake ^^)
17:18 - Marine Marauder, Medivac, Mine: The Ultimate M&Ms
The quarantine isn´t good for you Lowko, you start to humanize Zerg queens, giving them names and all. The swarm is getting to you.
Leave me alone! I love Brenda! It’s not just a phase!
lowko has been naming queens for a couple of months already it is not new
He is picking up Winter's mannerisms(for better or probably worse ;P ), Winter calls any Queen off creep Brenda, and if there is a group its the Knitting group
@@PEPPY09 *knitting crew
@@LowkoTV I can't explain why, but for some reason "Brenda" is the perfect name for a queen. It makes me smile every single time you say it!
53:56 Lowko: "We discuss oftentimes what separates a top-level player from a grandmaster player. And I think one of the key characteristics is, I guess like, how would you call that, like, agility? Like, adjustability?"
Kerrigan: "Do you remember what I told you on the battlefield?"
Zagara: "Vision."
I think lowko was looking for the word adaptability heh
Abathur liked this
"eyyy a new video"
-sees that its an entire hour.....
"i gotta get some snacks and a blanket ready then"
You know its a good game when Lowko casts it.
4:59 those hellions satisfied my OCD
lol yeah that perfect line
Man it is incredible the difference a good caster makes. I watched this same match with the other casters and it was good, but with Lo casting I felt like I was watching a whole new series. Great job man
Michael Mitchell yeah love Wardi for his effort but his casting is really stale and boring
Hey Lowko. Notice this comment. It is so so true! :) Well said Mr Mitchell.
@@michaelfenwick4184 Wardi seems to have nointerest. I haven't been watching either for long, but he just pauses for 10s at a time...like he's looking at his phone or something. No enthusiasm, nothing :)..."gotta do this job that I hate so I get paid" kind of.
@@CristianCiupe tbh sometimes wardi IS looking at his phone because he has to simultaneously cast and do the organization for the tournament
They need to make Lowko an official and regular caster
He has been the best player in the world for Serral years.
DAD, GET OUT OF HERE, YOU'RE EMBARRASSING ME INFRONT OF MY FWIENDS
it took me a sec but that is an S tier pun
Haha good one
Bc Maru :)
Lowko: It's best not to fight zerg on creep
Clem: Hold my stimpack
Serral spawns a literal monster of destruction
Lowko: aww how cute
Ok that's it. Imma start name Clem "Jean Clem Van Dam". His splits are too good.
Who can say where the road goes?
Where the day flows?
Only time.
Jem Clem Vem Dem

You don't see comebacks like this very often but when you do its amazing to watch, to see them claw their way out of the jaws of defeat is great.
wow, I'm flipping amazed. To turn it around being down 0-2... Just insane ability. this is why we watch Starcraft II ❤💙💚💛💜💓
Please never stop naming the queens. it gets me laughing every time
lowko: "just play like serral and don't make any mistakes"
2:57 - one Brenda attacks another. you can almost say that serral made a... mistake?
*gasp
Just because you (or anybody including me) don't see the reasoning behind it doesn't mean Serral made a mistake, though.
He just topped off his mistake limit with that, its for luck)
of course not! It was clearly a tactical decision to try and lure the reaper in...
No no, when Serral does it, it's a "pro-move" that us plebs are just too stupid to comprehend 😂
The fourth match definitely broke Serral’s sprint, which is very uncommon. Clem is really something else.
20:00 moments like these that make me love watching starcraft. a massive charge of zergs is picked apart by widow mines, but hid a few banelings under the overseers on the retreat, so when the terran push, they are destroyed. playing zerg like a zerg!
54:05 I believe the word you're looking for is either "Adaptability" or "Flexibility" ;)
I thought i was watching Maru.
Both are great Players in deed!!!
57:35 love that micro on the drones to kill the one hellion before running away
Dude, I absolutely love watching your casts. Thanks so much for being so passionate about this.
I feel like Serral was a little off his game on that last one
I feel like 15 hydras shut those attacks down. Not sure why he refuses sometimes to make any other units but lings and banes.
I think he got shook by the come back !! That was a very easy 2-0 at the beginning and then Clem just came back HARD !
Agree... I wonder if a couple of infestors would have done better than the vipers
Clem was abusing the map expertly, and really took advantage of the lack of anti-air by Serral.
Oh, definitely. Not only were his decisions a little off, so were his timings. As Lowko mentioned, he had excellent creep-spreading opportunities around 1:00:10 and didn't take it until 1:01:40 or so. Totally unlike Serral.
That last game was so good. It was like Clem was a terran serral. Masterclass stuff right there.
Lowko: "If you want to be a pro, just don't make mistakes."
Clem: "Ok."
After game #3 Clem went into *MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE*
16:07 that was some SWEET micro from Clem! 🤯😍
Excellent commentary, Lowko. I am actually listening only the whole time since I am still at work. Even so, I have a good grasp of how the game flowed just by how you casted it. Thanks for your hard work!
I've been a watcher for years, all because of your personality, commentary and casting. Really most of the time you're 50/50, half commentary/remarks, half casting. You went almost into full caster mode at the halfway mark in game 5 and it was pretty hype. Not saying it was better, but for these caliber of games it made for an intense viewing experience. Great games.
20:14 burrow for the banemines was sick
Just caught this! Fantastic cast Lowko. What a series.
Game 4, that Viking keeps hitting the mutas with his range, while hanging out over the Marines
54:03 I would call it vision XD
Another great cast, I look forward to the next one!
That quick placement of the tank at around 01:02:35 is one of those fun little things I like seeing. Tactical decisions.
This is the earliest I've ever been!
I use these videos as good ideas for me to get started, still extremely bad at the game, but I like to think getting better
Same I'm only in silver
Amazing series. Great cast as always Lowko!
Lowko man... you're by far my favorite caster and youtuber. I've been going thru some tough times recently but watching your videos is something that makes me happy! Keep up the great work!
Thanks Lowko your videos are always entertaining and there have been more then one saved evening by your series casts!
What an amazing explanation of faction and strategy in that opening!!!
Because he really does not make mistakes
*Proceeds to attack his own queen*
Because he couldn't storm his own marines, that's why.
Haven’t played SC myself since the original but love watching these games. Amazing by Clem, this guy is awesome. Thanks Lowko for the casts!
40:44 I lost track of how many times i replayed this. MASTER move by the Dark Lord
Done with twitch stream. Straight to CZcams to see what you uploaded lol
Ayyyy! Told you those games were worth it! Glad you followed my advice!
How many fourth bases was that?
Yes
@@LowkoTV good answer
How many fourth bases?
The correct answer, I believe, is all of them. :D
Insane series, amazing comeback
54:24
adapt is the word you're looking for
Honestly I watch this stuff almost solely based off the commentary. I've been aying SC for YEARS, basically since SC1 came out. I've stopped for many years and recently started up again cause of these videos. It really is quite impressive the level of skill these young people possess in this game. Absolutely impressive!! I feel it doesnt get the recognition it deserves. After all these years I still have no doubt I could not get up to the skill level of these sickening professionals, and what surprises me the most is how young they are. Good for them finding a career based off playing video games extremely well
"If it will be a BatleCruiser starter, it will be awful! Ah no its a Banshy."
Tell me abou it!
Those last 2 matches were **amazing!**
I thought about taking a break from SC2 replays. Then out of nowhere CZcams recommends me a LowkoTV cast. Had to go back.
Wow! I thought this was going to be a blow out. What a comeback!
Lowko @53:55 - adaptability? Great games, fun cast. Keep it up!
One of the finest ways to play Serral I have seen, just kept harassing and not sit back and wait for him to just spread creep just just roll the bloody map.
LowkoTV - Clem shows "adaptability" and also presence of mind. You could call it mental agility, too. A popular term at the moment is also "growth mindset" (from the book: "mindset" which talks in part about the psychology of great sportspeople and competitors in other fields such as business).
Laughing out Loud: 35:20, the nickname was not up for the player, Serral is too good for that nickname
How about "Emperor of the North?" (That's an old movie reference, not GoT related)
As a Warframe player, it brings great joy to my heart to see a player named Clem.
Super interesting note on Serral's strat. He swapped into a unit comp that requires very little micro so that he could turn fighting in 2-3 places into fighting in 5-6 places. With Golden Wall being a huge map it adds another element there.
Clem was swarming like a zerg player in that last game, attacking Serral bases at once!
He is so fast his APM is counted *PER SECOND*
you should start throwing in a few seconds of pov's in your casts. always fun to see
What a crazy comeback. This is the type of shit i come to this channel for
Wow lowko you came a long way, 400k subscribers
1:06:22 Lowko independently discovers the second time derivative of Actions.
That would be actually the rate of acceleration or deceleration in your APM (how fast your APM changes at any moment)
54:11 adaptability is the word your looking for lowko.
That reverse sweep. Holy cow.
Rule of casting lol. "Serral doesn't make mistakes" *queen attacks friendly queen. Great casting dude!
Serral is a scary player to watch, his units move like the swarm.
Behind the game is a massive psychological war against each other.
"There you go, buddies" xD
It all boils down as to who makes the first mistake
**Brenda attacks Karen
35:00 - the best nicknames for Serral are Overmind and God-Emperor of the Swarm. Shame pretty much noone is using those :(
That last game though!
11:33 How can you have Lowko Blindness to some things, but notice those Widow Mines???
I had to play it back TWICE before I (easily) spotted them 😆😭
hahaha the apm in the beginning has me dying
@10:10 Best tips for beginners. Thanks Lowko!
Wow. I wish I could have watched Clem as he was playing that 5th game. You would probably just see a blur in the general vicinity of the keyboard....
How did Serral see the widow mines at 6:30?
"this guy man, he's got huge balls apparently." Haha epic.
GOD!!!!!!!!!!! i love clem's play style
'The Night King is not nearly as strong as Serral' lol such true words
THIS was AMAZING!!! clems micro is other worldly
Incredible matches with an even better caster
This seems a bit too intense for my taste...
Must be stressful to play against good zerg players.
The things that faction pulls off its just insane.
The word you were looking for is adaptability. It's not just a spirts term by the way but is indeed commonly used in sports.
With splits like those, Lowko would be happy to be a marine in Clem's army :3
"Actions per minute a second" could actually be a reasonably valid measurement unit for the acceleration or the change rate rather of actual APM :)
.
maaan, just.. MAAAAAAN
i felt like Clem would just BURN out after games 1 and 2. The mental clearness and resilience on top of everything else...
feels like Serral got RLLY tired by the final match
Lowko, very entertaining and you don't have much bias when speaking for the players. We can tell you like Zerg lol but it doesn't stop you from hyping up a Terran or Protoss player. Professional love it
53:36 That queen dying was actually the nail in the coffin for that game. It meant Serral couldn't shoo away those liberators, so that base was essentially dead. He had 80 workers to 61, but with only 3 active bases, it didn't matter. At that moment, he was behind in army, behind in upgrades, and suddenly behind in economy.
word you are looking for Lowko is, Versatility
awwww what no HELLOOOO everone my name is LOWKOOOOOOO, you know what its fine as long as you upload.
It's charming the first few times and then it's just annoying.
Glad to see Serral is human after all.
I was thinking why dont they bury like 6 window mines ontop of eachother against mutas in your minerals? They go in to snipe it, and surprise and you lose your flock?
Lowko, I do not know if you will get this but I want to say that you have inspired me so much to get myself back into starcraft. I bought Wings of liberty when it came out (as did most of us) and I just straight up sucked in the Ranked matchups and I am a very competitive player naturally so this was hugely frustrating that I SC2 was only for those that spent years playing this game. You showed me this is not the case. Your stream and the things you point out have been incredible when I think about my strategies in starcraft and how I can improve. I got a real long way to go but your stream has brought me from a tier 3 low level silver player to a top 5 in my tier 3 platinum league in such a short time, I call that a victory! I have you to thank for teaching me how to look specifically at certain pros and learn their build orders and "get gud".
I have finally found the part I love about starcraft which is: getting better strategies, improving on strategies and play some ggs with other folks across the world with a super challenging game.
Thank you Lowko!!
Funny Stuff, playing this while playing some WarFrame and everytime I hear "Clem" I end up chuckling a bit.... for those that know Darvo's Deals ya prolly know why. ^_^

Hey, @Lowko! I have suggestions for answers to your question at 1:02:07. We could call them either Creep Waves or Tumor Waves bc the creep emanates from the tumors in a wave. I'm in favor of Tumor Waves Personally.
i guess it was the caster curse :D. Lowko says something, the exact opposite happens:)
20:20 is a magical number in 2020
