Ye-yeah no-one expects the third oracle. No one usually expects the first two oracles honestly, or the second oracle. Ah, he's not going to expect the fourth oracle, there's no way. There's no way he figures that out, right? And then the fifth one is truly going to surprise him. - Harstem 2022. What a god, comedy genius.
Video is 40 minutes long, where does he say that?
31:49
Whoa, Harstem playing with high quality graphics, shadows and all? Glorious!
Shopify's been secretly giving him money
I love how Artosis’ name is synonymous with terrible protoss building management to this day
Time in the vid?

Beating grandmaster with “stupid stuff” but is actually just my build order
Really? Then you must be masters or above. Oracles in the hands of plebs are usually crap, mass oracle even more so. I usually just make 1 or 2, grab a probe here and there and mostly just use revelation
@@HungTran-gz5em or he just loses a lot? idk
It's just a way to catch viewers!
Beating grandmaster with stupid stuff suggestion: mothership-adept rush
The idea is using recall+shade interaction to invade opponent's base with recall without getting mothership into the target base.
In case of ppl don't know what I'm talking about: if you recall adept with shade and shade finish during recall, adept will be recalled to location thats far away from mothership (distance based on how far your adept moved with shade).
is that real?? So you can get in their base without them seeing the adept shades?
@@FarnhamIII yes
@@FarnhamIII yes for example if adept throw shade 30 distance to north and you use recall when the shade is almost complete so shade would finish during recall animation, then adept will be 30 distance north of the mothership/nexus that recalled her.
@@allhailderpfestor4839 does it work with nexus too? If you theoretically proxied one could you do it too?
@@FarnhamIII I haven't seen interaction with current nexus recall so not 100% sure but it worked with old nexus recall and since the change was for balance it should work with current nexus recall as well unless they somehow re coded recall for nexus for watever reason instead of just reducing target circle area.
"kind of using it as a baneling here"
It's round, it dies after doing its job, and it explode into a bunch of green goo.
Yup, apt description.
I have to say: Mass Oracle, and Particularly "The Fifth Oracle" (someone should make a movie or something about that...) is absolutely hilarious. You had me dying every time you went into their mineral line and simply blasted them.
"no one expects the 5th oracle. First 4 maybe, but not the 5th" lol
If Harstem was a character in the Matrix, Neo's brain would explode with the number of Oracles he needs to visit
BGMWSS idea: pretend the fast pheonix scout(s) are hallucinated by not attacking, then going all-in with pheonix shortly afterwards
will that work? don't the phoenixes attack just by being near the unit?
@@arweiss21 you can send halluc phoenix and build the real ones at the same time but that would be a little bit of gas intensive i guess
also there is an hp difference between a hallucination and a real phoenix no?
@@SlayPlenty yeah
@@SlayPlenty Hallucinations have the same hitpoints technically, but they take increased damage.
BGMWSS Suggestion: You can only build units in reverse alphabetical order! Zealot -> Void Ray -> Tempest -> Stalker...etc. It was originally normal alphabetical order, but pretty sure it'd be impossible to take a game (Adept -> Archon -> Carrier...xD)
I love your series. your calming voice. your subtle back pats "oh sick splits Kevin Yes!" well done sir. you are a genuine entertainer and top bloke. Thanks mate.
When you accidentally do the Artosis Challenge. 24:50 goodbye all the stargates
"The Magician"
Smoke and Mirrors: Every attack attempt you make, you have to use Sentries to Hallucinate a distraction somewhere else to (hopefully) pull the enemy's defenses out of position.
There was an episode like that: czcams.com/video/G6ZbAsbHoiI/video.html
@@ufdarxy damn. that sounded really cool, so i'm happy to see it has already been done. thanks for sharing that with me!
Captain, very few things are as enjoyable to watch as oracles microed this well. Thanks for the content!
2:26 if you look at the minimap, you can see the Probe leave your base
I was literally just thinking yesterday. Harstem has done it all, but has he ever tried MASS ORACLE? Then I saw this today and realized that A: Great minds think alike, B: Harstem has now achieved SC2 Nirvana. :P
Upvote for thought A
He's done it before too
Has was never gone, Has became a Dutch streamer/pro gramer doing what he always loved. Seeing the future with oracles. HASTEM and MASS ORACLES.
I miss Harmstem and Harstem! Bring them back!
Is that why I haven’t seen any Has games in ages? Did he retire?
Great job making the oracles work! :D
Potential BGMWSS idea: recalls only
(Similar to the war crimes build, except instead of only killing workers, you get at least one proxy nexus on their side of the map and do all of your harrass/attacks by moving your units across the map with recalls)
Harstem you the man! keep doing what your doing !!! I dont play SC anymore but I religiously watch your videos and I'm glad your getting the views your getting !
Great show! I love seeing all the oracles.
Mass sentries please! Nothing is quite as entertaining as force fielding in an entire army and tickling them into the void that we keep hearing is cold.
you did the artosis pylon challenge and the mass oracle challenge!
Your channel/content is amazing thank you for making this ❤️
Love the way your playing Harstem. i learn a lot from your videos.
@harstem love the constant content so much. I've only recently started watching your stupid stuff series so maybe this has been done already, but have you considered doing a video where you attack your opponents main base with prism powered cannons in the early game?
...and i'm here once again to help Harstem know better his opponents )) YoungYakow is a player from Russia
That first game was insanely perfect lol
29:02 dang crazy to see micro like that if you step through the frames...hand selects the zealot waits until probe is almost next to it then attack moves to a point diagonal to probe path so probe is in zealot's path..all in about 1s
Wie need more "Gas, i guess hehe" ... that jokes man xD 🤣😂
A fantastic demonstration of why BGMwSS and CMA are the sports cars driving down the Road to Rank 1.
Harstem "We'll try one more"
Me: *looks at runtime*
That thumbnail is a masterpiece. Specifically your facial expression and body language.
Beautifully done bro!
Sick games, very fun!
"Okay so he's gonna send some oracles on my mineral lines. Let me build a battery instead of a cannon"
haven't play since a long a time but i remember how i was hating oracle in my mineral line, in 5sec with 2 oracles you lost half of your prod lol
really fun to play and really horrible to feel when it's against you
Thanks for this! The Oracle is one of the units of Protoss I really like, and think is under-utilized by a lot of players. In regards to spells as well as its (deliberately limited and hyper specialized) offensive capabilities.
Personally, I don't understand why so many players do not have at least one caster in their armies let alone one of each type. It's always just "mass things or nothing", when a well placed spell can tip the scales of a whole army and only use a minute amount of supply.
well massing things works best with f2
I don't know much about SC but I love mass oracle it's so entertaining with the split ground army and the quick air harassment units, kinda like watching muta ling bane.
you def should start playing. best game ever created
YES!! Ive been waiting for this one 💯👏🏻
In the spirit of the last game: suggestion for BGMWSS R&D rush: try to get to max upgrades as fast as possible.
he did triple forge once
thank you for making perfect video to watch while eating.
I enjoy that this was secretly a musical episode.
Great Episode!
Good stuff, keep it up!!!
Game 3 was sick, would be cool to see that mass sequential oracle strat in a tryhard game
dang, that muta switch was brutal. This looks like fun tho.
i played against a zerg last night who i was dominating but he had overloards everywhere and kept making nydus in my main flooding me with lurkers. I lost ultimately, that was annoying af, maybe ill get my revenge with this build.
Offensive Nexuses... eg, Proxy stargate but also build your expansion with it and use battery overcharge on batteries. Or an otherwise offensive nexus (using recall and battery overcharge)
When you attack with mass oracles, can you use one to cast statis field to divert the attention of the attacking units or is that not good?
Wow nice first game!
I enjoy watching your blinks.
Wait, does the oracle beam ignore armor? I think I heard that somewhere. If so, can you just target down all the larvae if you are done with workers on an expand, but can't move to other opponents' bases?
29:00 Billie Jeans, love it!!!
Offensive GG right off the bat, classy Harstem right there!
Maybe not the most brilliant gameplay all the time but def. the most entertaining. Keep up the killer content ! Thanks for all the work.
great vid Kevin! That last game was great. Too bad the mutas got you on that pvz
You're funny! Thanks for the videos!
Beating grandmaster with stupid stuff suggestion: As Terran, float your starting CC all the way to their 4th.
There's a Day9 Funday Monday where players lifted their starting CC and placed it somewhere else. Harstem can't do this though because no way you could possibly win at the grandmaster level if you spent the first 2 minutes of the game doing literally nothing.
@@sirprize8572 Why does everything need to be about winning? I'm just imagining the reaction when the opponent goes to scout the main and it isn't there.
@@thethievesdomain8360 Understandable, but the series is about _beating_ grandmasters with stupid stuff. The point is to do seemingly stupid/silly/funny builds that somehow still actually win.
Would have been hilarious to do a 1-base proxy Oracle in the 2nd game against that 1st guy.
Don't worry, I won't do the same build again.
...It'll be worse.
Ty great fights as usual!
Michael Jackson to Cher transition was beautiful.
You shoud have added a couple of hallucinated Oracles into the mix.
Great video!
You're a content MACHINE!
Harstem I love you please continue your stuff
The massing up builds are always fun in BGMWSS, but it isn't fair that you know what you are going to mass before the game even starts. I suggest you beat grand master by massing a random attacking unit that you can not determine until the game starts, or just prior to the game starting. You don't have to mass sentries if you don't want, nor probes.
Next week "Oracles are IMBA, look at how I played perfectly and he just built oracles and won"
Did he go look after your probe trick?!? I was fully expecting a replay to find out...
That was insane. I would be Alt+F4 to this :D
Nice games, captain
im silver so i dont know alot about control groups but, does hotkeying a pylon actually do anything?
actually pretty legit. suiciding 3 oracles is a pretty sure way to force your opponent to push, and nobody is going to expect a 4th oracle.
Did you ever check back in game 1 to see if he scouted the main?
29:40 how do you know what the Stargate is building?
When the Stargate starts production, you can see the outline of what it's building within it. Here you can see the wings of a Phoenix. Watch a few other videos as well and you'll notice outlines of other ships during production.
It seems that if you want to go in hard with Oracles, you should try the harassment in pairs, so that you can ensure more drone kills.
harstem talked so fast in the very beginning that I thought I left my playback speed at 2
Oracles were the real Chad Rays all along.
Good luck with Katowice!
41:30 he's desperate, as he should be, and maybe tilted too
Finally i understand mutalisks better! thank you.
Here’s an idea. Beating grandmasters with stupid stuff: No tech structures in the main or natural. All buildings must be proxied!
This strikes a chord, didnt he already do that?
yeah sure, you have mass oracles, but can you see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?
Omg I imagine that first opponent was so triggered.
He even went to Twitter to rant a bit about it :D
i love seeing workers take it X)
Th 3rd oracle is like the spanish inquisition.
so good :)
I agree that nobody expects the second and third oracle, but I think more people expect the fourth and fifth oracle than you say
gonna add a couple cannons, just a couple tho dont want too many
*puts down 5*
Forgot to see if he checked the corner of the base for a pylon.
Beating grandmaster with stupid stuff: but it's an ept cup.
I say cool beans, i'm 35.. Kids do say it.
12:10.. weren't 4 oracles enough to beat 4 stalkers ?
Beating grandmasters with stupid stuff proposal: Go for a mothership rush and get as many kills as possible with the mothership.
He already did this and lost like 80mmr haha
No one expects 5th Oracle!
Truly waiting and anticipating the moment the cheesiest man Alive's MMR will get higher than the road to rank 1 account's
Beating grandmaster with stupid stuff suggestion: Destroy an enemy structure with only probes
Suggestion: Proxy Super Battery
6:40 Skillers spelled backwards? What kind of name is that?
Tell me, why some people type "gg" at the start? is it suppouse to mean "let's it be a good game"?
Magarrok = arrogfire
How about Phoenixes and Zealots in the next episode?
Greeeeeeen 💚
