Unnamed series? Sounds like a perfect opportunity for "Giant Grant's Giant Grab Bag of Games"
Alliteration is Tight!

It's gonna be pretty hard to remember a name that long, heh ?
Actually it's gonna be super easy, barely an inconvenience !
Giant Grant's GRAND Grab-Bag of Games* ;)
Alternatively: Giant Grant's Grand Grab-Bag of Great Games. Or you can add/substitute in good, genius, gallery, grind...
Giant Grant Games Grabbag
I was for Starcade/ Starcadia but yours is pretty good too.
My head canon is that every time grant goes to bed a dedicated "fan" sneaks into his house. Hops onto his PC and messes with the hotkeys.
Creepy? Yes
Weird? Yes
True? Hopefully not.
But hey, what's life without some spice to it
Hey, it's me, I'm not sorry for doing that, but i am taking down Grant by slowly whittling down his sanity this way. This is my revenge for him not using firebats and perdition turrets WoL.
@@blubobo99 Thank you for your sacrifice
I'm guessing the hotkeys being messed up each time is something to do with dependencies shuffling around? I don't think it's caused by custom mods...?
No I'm positive it's the hotkey goblin
my friend had the same issues and we only ever played Co-op and he never made multiple profiles, i'm pretty sure some core function of it is just broken and we gave up ever using it
In the banshee vs marines one (22:42) it is better, i think, to abuse the middle pillar that marines can't see through but a flying unit can.
The banshee can't go above that pillar. It's impassable even for flying units.
Day 75 of messing Grant's keybind until he changes his password : "lol, lmao"
damn, i remember this, it's like child hood all over again, like 40 minutes of it...
Round 28 could've made for a cool segment in a no-build mission, like a spooky space station overrun by Zerg or something.
Damn, I remember this. I saw the achievement for this, decided to go for it, and did it. The medivac tank one... I didn't know that you could click on the medivac to unload where it was. I struggled until I accidentally did it.
I struggled and quit
About hotkeys: sometimes maps that have custom units, or versions of units from previous expansions mess with the hotkeys.
Thats why I have several sets of hotkeys for each custom map that i play.
I remember beating starcraft master but reset my computer and so I lost progress. Glad achievement persists tho
Hi Grant, don't usually comment but I really appreciate you bringing attention to all these different games from the arcade.
Glorious "I use grid hotkeys so my hotkeys are never messed up" mustard race
Grid hotkeys best hotkeys. Except when they change around the icon order, always messes me up
Grant
Just want to say I LOVE this new gig of reviewing random arcade games and showing some varied gameplay with them, really helps figure out what's worth trying in the vast arcade landscape. Please make this a regular thing whenever you have a scheduling hole in your usual stuff, its great.
This awakens some memories -- I think I remember struggling through these like 10 years ago lol. Thanks Grant for making me come back to this awesome game (if only as a viewer)
Same here. :)
Wow what a blast from the past. The best part of this is that not very far after this map was released, Heart of the Swarm dropped and almost entirely invalidated like almost a third of these challenges, they were not actually accurate to the modern-at-the-time multiplayer of the game anymore lol
Let it be known that Round 29 can be cheesed
Damn you hotkey gremlin! First you take away our A move, now you go after borrow. What next?
but he is a fair goblin, he left the unburrow hotkey alone
The next one to be taken is the cancel on the adept's shade
This was great to watch, I honestly love watching your content while Eating, or doing simple chores. Its fairly calm, Very fun, but isnt overly energetic. Thanks Grant, very cool!
16:13 "The counter to any unit is a marine. The counter to any building is a stimmed marine."
ohhh will we get a Left 2 die playtrough? I 'd love to watch you play the original blizzard arcade map!
Fun fact: It was supposed to be included in Wings of Liberty as the part of it. Map was named Combat Simulation, and you are supposed to play it from Hyperion Armory. However, it got cut from the game (Most likely when campaign was still in development), and the only thing left is the old menu and camera (which is bugged and just aims at the void, you can't see anything except text and button). I recovered it from old game files, and it is just as same as current map, except few differences:
1. It is unfinished, there was only 20 maps out of 30, if i'm not wrong.
2. You cannot warp between challenges.
3. Map used life system: every time you lose, you lose a life. If you lose all of them, simulation ends.
I'm glad they improved and re-added it as a arcade map.
I'd love to see some more reelcraft/ keystone, or even arcade in general. I hear "the swarms control" custom campaign is great.
never commented on a vid this new before. Fun to watch as always! Surprised you had so much trouble with the banes given your love of rapid-fire sniping, haha! Having fun watching these, as always. :)
I have been really enjoying this Arcade series, it's been nice for me and my friend to rediscover the Arcade! I'm sure others have felt the same, but it's brought the focus back to the user-made-content that isn't custom campaigns!
wow, you did #29 so easy. I microed each marine separately in circles.
Petition to call this series "Unnamed Series"
I had forgotten all about this. Some of these took me a long ass time to get back when
so glad you started this series!
I am so mad that whack a roach went so smoothly for you. They kept retargeting to my weak roaches and I had to leave them buried for a super long amount of time and only managed to win after multiple tries with a single second left.
Well, I'm getting visions of Grant's future hotkey problems at GDQ.
Arcade Archeology your welcome!
love this old masterpiece, this was where I actually learned how to mineral walk for the first time!
I wouldve lost my mind at the baneling and phoenix one
Hey btw, the reason why your burrow hotkey was unbound is because of the arcade you played recently, SC2 Tavern Battle. It also unbounds the phoenix, the voidray and a few other things. I have no idea why
Not gonna lie, this is your best series yet!
damnnnn the art style in that thumbnail is gooodddd omy
voice is soothing, content is so much fun
Everyone always had that 1 mission they couldn't do for the life of me. For me in ye olden days it was the banshee one, that 1 took me a long time to get right, for my old 2's buddy it was the Dark Templar SCV one and for our 3s buddy it was the Protoss Microinsanity one with the Pheonix and Stalkers.
This bringd back memories
actually wings of liberty gives you chargelots so un upgraded zealots can be microed but once you upgrade them its no longer a problem ;)
i think youd better check all your hotkeys before you start your speedrun cause that could be a run killer
I remember I breezed through all but 3 of these. The 3 stalker 2 Templar vs raven tank marauder, the medivac drop pickup micro and the ghost snipe vs babes. Man that one took me forever! Easily spent an hour in that one alone lol then grant just beats it on like 4th try. Well played sir well played.
12:15 it's relevant when reaper fast expanding vs. an early game roach all in. SCV's hold the ramp while hellions deal splash waiting for banshee to pop
Wow, this brings back memories. I'm proud to say that I actually beat this. You get an achievement and everything. It was fun.
"so many banelings" flashbacks
Reminds me of those Brood War maps for practicing specific micro tricks, though I was really bad at those.
Even CZcams agreed with me, marking this video as being about OG StarCraft)
CZcams does that all the time. It just doesn't understand the difference between the two.
At least this isn't a video of a speedrunning guide for the Bottom of the Well in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time getting picked up as a Breath of the Wild video, despite being released four YEARS before Breath of the Wild was released (note: both are abbreviated as BOTW).
I played this a few months ago, the blow my mind trying to avoid reduce damage against banelings
I remember this. And have actually done all of them!
hey grant ! I know you love your feedback and I have to say that I really liked the two card game modes. This was a bit simpler but a nice throwback aswell. Keep doing these pls :)
starcraft masters? Nah I'm wood league
Shift-queuing siege tanks was the first trick I learnt in campaign
Can confirm GGG's suspicion -- yes, it remembers. I just got the 10-mission complete from StarCraft Master last night (with like, 8 of them done years upon years ago)... I'm not good at macro and it wasn't until poking Nova Ops that I discovered you could queue abilities; was a lot of fun there telling siege tanks "go here, then siege mode".
Oh i remember doing this one many times, in my 5k career games only once have i had to target scv's to kill invis DT
6:00 casually drops that he's doing a sc speedrun for GDQ...
When are you slated for?
You know what else would be really nice to see? A no death challenge run for the Psyonic Assault challenge mission.
No, I am not the Starcraft Master, but I appreciate you asking.
GRANT IF U GET 5HE TIME TRY THE CHAR HOLDOUT IN ARCADE BRING FRIENDS if u see this relay your r key to recruit also the dev put a ton of work into it and it's amazing
17:26
(In Artosis's voice)
*SO MANY BANELINGS!*
There's a pretty cool arcade game similar to this by Printf... Definably recommend.
Dang, I JUST played this the other night! The hardest one for me was definitely the Banshee one. I had issues with the hotkeys too, I think it's some sort of compatibility issue since this game came out in WoL.
Oh boy, round 25 gave me PTSD lol.
Ah I did this ages an ages ago. Wondered where it went to. Was quite good actually
I had beaten this game when i found it looking for a new portrait to equip. i felt like a boss completing a few of these challenges
"Round Robin"
That's the first time I hear this expression outside of music sample context.
GSL is currently using a round robin round of 10, a change this season from previous seasons. It's got a few people pretty confused lol.
Man, this is so poggers
I remimber how this was difficult. Worth the portrait tho. I suspect those were "affected" as expansions/patch went through
BTW, I tried this on the other servers. In my own region, it was easy, but on americas it was really hard, and on asia, even harder, to the point the last one is impossible for me. Campaigns don't lag, but this map does lag.
So entertaining!
Wait, did you actually get accepted into GDQ or is this just practice for a run submission?
He's on the pending list for SGDQ, because they've not finalized the schedule yet, I think.
I love when he said "It's StarCrafting time!" and StarCrafted all over them!
WAIT WE GOT STARTCRAFT AT GDQ?!
Name idea the arcade escapade
I saw challenge 1 and my brain said starcrafts
About round 25; you can feedback without aggroing the rest. The fight is much easier if you start with a archon already merged.
Nostalgia :'D
Oh i remember finishing this only to realize battlenet didnt register any progress ....
So cool. Ty ggg!
“These aren’t super ornate or complicated”
Grant is reminding us why we come to watch him micro
I was never able to finish the Banshee kiting one.
Curse the Hotkey Gremlin
Yes I am The Sc Master - you found me
My hotkeys always get unbound especially the hydra upgrades for some reason
remember people, protoss is the f2+a race ¬_¬
Ah this is a classic
Next up: Aiur Chef!
Take it Kaldalis that’s funny
If you're playing SC2 at GDQ might I suggest playing this map as an intro? RTS speedruns don't get much interest because the gameplay is too specialized for people to really know what's going on. This challenge map communicates quite a lot in a short period of time.
I mean, he's on the pending list for HotS Normal, so he's got some great points to talk about how it works, and showcase a lot of interesting things they did with HotS that they didn't really do with WoL (like boss fights)
Your pull out game is strong!
Wait, what do you mean I cant say that?
I know I'll get called a noob but I really like this! :) There's also the WoL 'Challenges' that you could try to get Gold on everything?
i remember this seeming impossible a while back when i first finished WoL
i thought stalker blink was broken lol
remember beating this in 2011
Has anyone ever made a brutal version of the Wings of Liberty Challenge Missions? Those 9 missions that are also supposed to teach you micro and different mechanics.
You should try "the jacksoning: forever" its an amazing game mode
anyone know the name of that one arcade game where it was essentially multiplayer slenderman but in starcraft so it was the scary adjutant instead of suited figure. I'm merely asking cause I remember it was like the only game that used first person in a top-down game
nice video, can you try marine control next?
If you've got a playlist showing off Arcade games you enjoy, I'd love to see it.
Some of them are very hard (couldn’t finish all of them)
Name suggestion for the series
Grant's Giant Arcade.
I remember this! 25 is where I gave up :
