I Broke Starcraft 2 Because Legacy of the Void Without Building Anything Is Too Hard.

  • I started uploading this video over ten thousand years ago. Before CZcams was even invented. Wolly Mammoths helped edit it. CZcams's upload speed is so slow that it only has reached you today.
    I put myself in cryofreeze to arrive at this moment, but I am afraid I may have been too early. The video is only 68% uploaded and that isn't nice. At this rate humanity will collapse before I release this.
    Update: Six years have passed. It is now at 73%.
    Update 2: Fourty-Seven more years have passed. The video is at 90%. People no longer watch videos via CZcams and instead have advertisements beamed directly into their brains without any attached entertainment.
    Update 3: The Upload has finished. Skyrim has been re-released 142,816 times on every platform known to man while I waited. You can now use your microwave to be the Dovahkiin. Overwatch 2 has still not released.
    Update 4: This took so long, I sat in this box for hours, and somehow it never occurred to me to use this time to timestamp stuff. I am a good CZcamsr.
    Update 5: I didn't include the Epilogue because it's boring. If you would like to know how it goes: The answer is Time Stop OP, Kerrigan OP, Kerrigan OP. She sure is balanced.

      like, it's nearly impossible if you don't partake in superior tactics on the battlefield, or plain old cheese since legendary total war is where it's incredibly brutal for the sheer factor that the legendary AI is too overbuffed and cannot be killed easily unless you actually know the game well

You have me far beat on that front and it's always interesting watching your solutions to things.

    Personally, I like seeing new bugs and exploits peppered into videos like this, so we can see how those bugs can be used to accomplish incredible feats under insane circumstances. I think a single video showcasing all the bugs in a row would remove some of the excitement.
    Maybe you could make a video highlighting bugs that are strategically useless, such as graphical glitches or dialogue errors. But if the bugs have value in a run like this, I’d rather see them in use, rather than staged just for a demonstration.

    the epilogue is basically
    into the void: use the relatively large number of starting units to kill void threshers(which dont get stronger as the mission progresses) kill the overpowering production with allys use annihilators to cheese the final boss
    essence of eternity: think all in plus the dig use kerrigens death beam to kill high priority targets so your allys can deal with the death waves sent against them(the zerg can hold with minimal support the protoss however die to a stiff breeze)
    amons fall: use kerrigen to break all the rocks and thank jim for his 5/5 support

      LotV Epilogue though is impossible for this though, your starting comp is basically completely wrong for it, and Essence of Eternity doesnt have an equivalent to The Dig where you can win without actually progressing the main objective by using a floating barracks or factory. Into the void i can see, but a handful of marines and a tank isnt holding out when you cant attack the enemy production.
      Full Upgrade siegebreakers dont compensate for 4.0 void liberators.

      The important thing to remember is that the number doesn't represent time, it represents how many zerg are on the planet. Therefore, I think what happened is that Artanis taunted Amon into sending more and more troops by constantly powering up the Spear of Adun's weapon systems without actually firing them.
