StarCraft 2: Legacy of the Void is a standalone expansion pack to the military science fiction real-time strategy game StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty, and the third part of the StarCraft 2 trilogy developed by Blizzard Entertainment. On this channel you will find Starcraft funny moments, micro, highlights, plays and a lot more! starcraft 2 vods - Hry
The highlight is basically the entire game, sorry about this! I tried to cut out where I could but there is so much action
Just watch WCS spring this weekend! At twitch.tv/Starcraft
This game is too gouda.
by the gods, epic.
Well you did a great job anyway:D
Your cut was perfect. If the entire game is action pact no need to cut :P
Never apologize about bringing us this golden content!
We both did ton of mistakes, but this kind of game challenge ur adaptation on a fly while u have no time to think, non of us played game like that but i hope there gonna be more games like that on tournaments bcz it's rly fun to watch(even tho i played it)
Its always easy to see the mistakes after but having the ingenuity to create this situation is what requires real skill and intelligence so I thank you for a great game. Easily one of the best games this year. To bad you cant win extra money for crowd excitement like in mma. Knockout of the night bonus! Fight of the night bonus! Cheese of the night bonus! Lets all hope for more creative stuff in the future! SC2 is in a real good state right now with lots of exciting new strategies (other than the immortal). Feels like a moment in meta where creative play really can pay off some times.
I live for amazing moments like these in Starcraft II so thanks for that game! :)
thanks for the show, bly!
So close --- good job and good luck with future cheesing!

*after watching the video* "That was the sickest cheese I've ever seen."
Swiss or cheddar?
*Before finishing watching* "This was not the sickest cheese ever."

May i have an order of the sickest cheese ever?

I had lost all hope for Neeb at some point but his come back OH MY GOD
weeb
Tbh it felt quite weird. A ZERG that has access to an entire map... and who hasn't secured any source of extra income or researched anything besides tier 1... or whatever it's called - units? I mean... he fought a phoenixes, DTs, prisms and whatnot with... queens, lings and spines. That's it. It's both the most heroic use of the cheap units and also the dumbest. Because somehow a single base could out-develop and outbuild a person, who had map control for over half of the game.
He could even just prism down one probe and start expanding, fully knowing that Bly would have no answer to that. He made the choice of only using the existing units...
@@Wrathinside with what money? youre talking about looking back at the game and changing a decision. in the heat of the moment where you could die at any second, trying to get an expo up would mean not enough money to defend and you lose. it was a weird game in an amazing and wonderful way. games like this dont happen often at the pro level, words dont do this justice
@@rainman4905
He could have just made his second hatchery somewhere else instead of right next to his main base for example
@@PuellaMagiHomuraAkemi he could have, a lot of things were possible. Heat of the moment tho...things got crazy haha
This is what got season 8 should've been
whoa careful db2 could hear you and adapt it into a series and then ruin its finale
Seriously. Well said
@@TucksCave yeah man, still too soon. Our multiple stab wounds are still fresh.
TOO SOON
Man how could you impossible link these 2 things LOL
I'm not a fan of much esports but Starcraft and Starcraft II matches are some of the coolest things to watch. It's like hardcore chess and mind games. I'll never get tired of it. I wonder if we'll see a Starcraft III? Probably in 2035... Jesus christ.
Reads the title: "Yeah, whatever. Just clickbait."
Watches the video: "I stand corrected."
That game was absolutely awesome ! This is why we love SC2 :D
Broowar is better.

*Neeb almost loses prism* Maynarde “This is terrible for my heart”
@John Doe He can't juggle frontline units out of combat and can't replace them meaning he could lose the fight due to the funneling of the troops on the slope.
He wouldnt have lost. But it wouldve been a draw. Which means a game 4
All he had to do was set up the prism in warm mode or whatever the hell it's called and that never would have happened. Granted, I know it was game 3 of 3 and Neeb is freaking out. lol
hahahahahaha
i have no idea what's going on but i watched till the end anyway
Must be very exciting in its own way despite not understanding some things :) the casters do a decent job of explaining although some don't cater to 'new player' knowledge enough I think. SC is almost like a language I bet it seems crazy complicated to new players sometimes.
Lmao same.
The Zerg player did an all-in rush, to the point of hamstringing their own economy, and the Protoss player only *just* managed to hang on by clever use of defensive mechanics. At the end of the game, both players were completely starved for resources because neither had access to an expansion (the white semicircles on the minimap) that they could afford to use because every single unit of mineral went to military units.
Me either not a clue, but it was entertaining none the less.
@@Whitecroc Thanks for explaining, I never played the game or watch these types of videos, definitely really interested and watching this video was very entertaining. Still didn't know what was going on lol now im going to be watching more vids like this to see if I can get into it :P
I never played Starcraft, but it is so damn nice to watch. That level of strategic thinking combined with such a fast pase, beautiful.
pace, but yeah
0% clickbait. that was amazing
I haven't seen a SC2 match in years. Was not disappointed.
Give those units some names and you get a better movie than Hollywood delivered the last 10 years
id love to see archons fighting mass zerg instead of all the marvel crap
1917 was an epic piece of cinema if not a good war film.
Tenet is mind blowing if you have a high enough IQ to begin to understand it.
The Gentlemen is truly a gem!
the list goes on.
@@Jafmanz I must be stupid, cause i hated tenet
That's why when anyone says "They wish for Starcraft the movie" I say "No, Hollyweird would butcher it" Just look what they did to the 'new' Mortal Kombat movie if you need evidence of Hollyweird butchering a franchise and insulting the entire Lore.
What a stupid comment!
I haven't played sc2 in years this game was so epic to watch you couldn't write a better script with the plot twists!
Side85Winder ah.....yeah you could. he’s hacking because he recalls without a mothership.....
What ?
Same. This game could single handedly bring me back to playing the game
@@4nakinSkywalker is this a joke?
@@JohnCephas no it’s not. The SC I played in 2016 required that the mothership be next to the units for mass recall
I never played this game and I now nothing about it, but thank you CZcams recommendation
Well, it is your lucky day. The game is free 2 play if you dont want to play de campaign, and probably has several features locked for those who have the game ( Last time I played the game was on the HOTS release, like 5 years ago XD), but even for the price the game is 110% worth. Just go to the Battlenet web and try it!
WELCOME TO STARCRAFT!!!!! :D
I remember when I started playing SCII, there was this small tournament called the GameCreds cup. Prize for winning it was 100 bucks, yet every big player would be there every week. Bly won it once and was an absolute noname at the time. He crushed Dimaga, one of the best zerg players at the time, in ZvZ, 3/0. 3 cheese strats. The balls it took to pull that off made me support the guy instantly... I'm not surprised he took part in the greatest SC match ever after witnessing that :')
And there are people saying that sc2 is a boring game to watch... This game was amazing, it was like watching a show with mind blowing plot twists every two minutes
@@joshuahughes9191 I know, but the same can be said about Brood War or any other E-Sports, especially MOBAs that to me remain castrated RTS
These kinds of games are really more of an exception than a rule though.. imo, Starcraft 1 had a lot more games with interesting moments like these, but that's just me :D i love sc2 though!!
@@theSato Fair enough
@@theSato a lot of it down to the skill shining through the crappy game mechanics
It’s the only esport I’ve watched consistently after I’ve gotten into a game
Wow! That was such a great match! Good on Neeb for not giving in when it looked like he was done and Bly was nuts with that hatchery! Great job on both sides, what a sick match!
*MATCH START*
Im gonna go build a hive right next to that guy.
When neeb lost his forward base I thought it was gg, then I looked at the video timeline and saw it's only halfway through. Then I knew SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN SOON!
You can really see why these guys are pros, i play protoss too, but i would have broken down and gg like 25 times during that match.
GG to both players.
woulda thrown my keyboard two
love the enthusiasm of the commentators. i have absolutely no idea what’s going on but this was super entertaining
never played a starcraft that much but saw this in my recommended and watched the whole thing
nice
I haven't watched a sc2 cast in ages. Sweet memory's.. :)
“Walk of shame” had me rolling :D
When the clickbait title actually delivers. :D
SC2HL always on time with the best games!
Thank you so much for this highlight! Amazing game.
Their really was no way to shorten this game everything in this video was too critical to cut out great job guys
At the end couldn't neeb have long distance mined via prism to the third, that way you force bly to come up to the ramp as you had income coming in
You know what would’ve been great, if Neeb elavatored his probes at the end to nine mins from outside then elevator them back in to make more units
Kyle Calindas I was thinking that too
It would be a lot of effort and attention into very little minerals
Marcin Krocki but he can mine and Bly can’t, at that point I’m pretty sure it’d be worth it
@@KCal25 Disagree. All Neeb had to do at that point was not lose the warp prism and not epically screw up the micro while doing damage to Bly's spines/queens and it was over. Neeb wouldn't want to risk losing an Archon because his Warp Prism was out of position just so he could make maybe 2 units in a couple minutes.
Amazing game - honestly about 90% of pro players would have dipped after the Nexus at the natural went down but Neeb made several sick plays (killing the natural/drones, Prism, DTs and finally trapping the queens with shields) that allowed him to claw it back.
Ah yes, I've done that back in my SCI days
Woooow talk about never give up never surrender
Swear by Graptor's hammer...
@@Dimiurgi Galaxy Quest yeah ! ;)
@@Ezekielepharcelis :)
This is totally the definition of, "They had us in the first half"
I see things moving. That's great
Thanks SC2HL for bringing this. Didn't watch SC2 for a long time, but your highlights brought back the attention. That play of Neeb, tricking the base race was genius. Maybe a 1 out of 1000 or even 10k games. GG to both and the casters.
Neeb: Oh? You're aproaching me? Instead of running away you're coming right to me?
This was so much fun to watch. Never thought it would end this way.
Those DT's were an absolute game changer!!!
the fact that he was able to get a temple up while under siege and also attacking intermittently must have been so draining mentally.... Bly did not anticipate the DTs until it was too late... that was such a HUGE turning point.
I enjoyed these commentators a lot, they’ve been really into it. Sometimes some other just talk about unrelated stuff, big no no. But these two did a good job!
I have no idea how I got here or what I'm watching but it is pretty intense. Looks like a game I could get into watching but not playing lol.
I tend to use a lot of strategies like Bly which often result in scrappy base trades. I've found if you're going to follow up with a natural, you might as well pick a different base. If Bly expanded at 6 oclock instead of going for his natural, he wins.
Always come back to watch this every now and then. The most entertaining game ever played without a doubt.
I was dubious about the title but, this is indeed one of the greatest games of SC2 I´ve seen.
10:49 my inner lesser protoss screamed in rage, my terran inner laughted a lot
For me, the greatest Starcraft 2 match of all time is Scarlett vs Bomber. Those burrowed banelings...
Do you remeber Nestea vs sCfOu?? AMAZING banes there. One of the best games ever. czcams.com/video/vx9zGvYYm4g/video.html
Oh man...that was so tense. And their decision-making on the fly was so impressive
Holy Guacamole. Neeb's confidence and understanding of the game are immense!
I salute RTS players really. Not all gamers have brain cells that fast.
*Watches while replaying campaign on easy or medium at a stretch for the billionth time* Bretty gud
rel
@8:36 “ahh high ground”
Obi Wan: “I see you are a man of culture as well”
I didn’t understand a word of this. But even I know this might be the best 18 and a half minutes of gaming.
I love how the commentators were startled by Need about to loose his prism, like quasi-heart attack x)
that was the last warp prism, lossing it would not allow to micro anymore and could loose the game for Neeb ;)
@@Skorpion1991
He was still mining a little and had his robo so he could have made another one. Still, losing that would have been massive.
This game subverted so many of my expectations.
Proxy hatch cheese + base trade + dark templars + come back = epic StarCraft
The micro is incredible
that was with out question the greatest starcraft 2 game ive ever seen by far and ive seen a few
this is just sad mate
Warp prism in the right hands is one of the best units in sc2, and this game proves me right.
Allows the toss player to bring damaged units to the back of the army. If he losses the warp prism, there could be a chance that queen heal + spines and a good surround will win vs neebs' army.
This reminds me of the 2 immortals and warp prism plays, defeating entire armies.
first time playing SC2: Warp prism , meh only act as mobile pylon + MedVac
After couple of games : Sh*t my precious prism died
And the guardians..
yea im glad I know how to prism juggle , it did take me awhile to learn it :) , I sometimes ladder every now n then to not get rusty on it :)
my heart legit stopped when i saw like 4 spores lock onto that warp prisim
Nail biting all the time. Enjoyed every minute of it when watched it live
Neebs: We should protect our base, no matter what it comes. We should fight on the landing ground. We should fight in the field. WE SHOULD NEVER SURRENDER!!!
This is such a hilarious/ intense game. I can't even believe these kinds of all-ins appears on the pro scene. Maybe I don't watch enough games :P
Wow! That was even crazier than I thought it would be from the thumbnail.
Zerg definitely should've set up another base or two while Protoss was cornered.
Bly never got over 160 minerals, was using everything just to keep Neeb pinned.
The problem is that Zerg needs to be at least +1 base vs Protoss early, and past midgame more like +2 bases to win. Bly never had Neeb far enough behind that he could just stop pressuring to build eco - if he had tried to switch he likely would have just ended up getting counterattacked after Neeb cleans up his unsupported all in or he would have just ended up basically on even (at best) economical terms with a Protoss - that's never a winning scenario for Zerg. He was also behind in tech which is a huge problem for ZvP - you really need those tech units like infestors/corruptors/ravagers to deal with post CC units from Protoss.
that was evacuation of Aiure :D
And the retake on the same game lmao
It's 2019 and "When behind, Dark Shrine" still works
came here expecting clickbait. but damn as far as "when cheese fails" goes, this was pretty damn epic
what a come back!!!!!!! that was epic if not the best match ive seen on sc2!
that was possibly one of the best cheese games i've seen thanks for the vid! :D
That was SO COOL! I was rooting for Bly just because of how cool it was! I wish stuff like this works for often so we see it more. Macro games are nice too but its nice to have a bit of variety.
Okay, this wasn't a bait title. This video kept me at the edge of my seat the entire time.
Anyone else watch these sometimes, even though they have no idea what's going on and have never played?
Same
He could have also used the prism to mine lol
I had the same idea. Shield wall off and use prism to extra long mining. Then set another base far away
mind blow plan it over 9000 intellegent lol
ive actually seen that a few times in pro games, it was awesome
I thought the same thing just secure your ramp with units long distance mine even if it’s with two probs and an archon, Zerg can never afford to split his army. If he over splits his buildings are done and if he undersplits a surprise archon in the prism wins the game. Would have taken a while but really it was a slightly safer battle of attrition that he could afford to play
That's taxing on APM though, since he's in the defensive.
"I have a super cool cheese video"
No i am not interest....
"A ZERG CHEESE"
You got my attention
just got back playing SC2 a few days ago then I saw this! Man this game is just insane!
Holy shit. This is the "You had to be there" of the SC2
*The Greatest Starcraft 2 Match Ever*
Oh come on now that must be an exagger-
*No Terran*
...Go on.
That was the most entertaining match I've ever seen 😄
This game just emphasises how very OP Queens are at the moment
I think it also does a fine job in showcasing how OP warp prism is :p
AMAZING game and so fun to watch. Both players played so well wow
WOW!!!! GO PROTOSS !!! after all that pressure in the end it was worth it
I don’t have a clue what’s going on here but it was awesome
The force field at the end was perfect lol
The title is correct. What an awesome game, well played by both sides.
I watched this earlier, for any normal player it should give up when second base fall, but not neeb, he turns it around, what a legend
5:50 that's what I thought a minute ago. The creep is the biggest threat
he really should expanded so that lings can move faster and the rebuilding is impossible
*IF BLY USED MORE CREEP!!*
Upper ground vision with tumors = GG.
That game was absolutely sick.
Ive watched every sc2 game since 2015. This is the best one.
When i was younger i saw my cousin playing this and never cared till now.... i wanna play this so bad
never too late to pick it up
Need could’ve used the warp prism to drop 8 drones at his 3rd mine pick em back up and continue if he had to
That's the greatest comeback of all comeback history
The micro in this game... it's fucking mind-blowing lol. Neeb's winning move alone, just like.. capturing the queens with the forcefields because they took ONE step too close lol. So impressive.
And those 2 probes mining gas til the end "mehh let em fight"
A complete 540... three 180's to be exact!
i played on the ladder years ago, made it to diamond before i quit cuz it was too stressful, but i'm glad it gave me enough knowledge of the game and units to really appreciate what's going on here. always loved playing the noble protoss - glad he pulled it out.
Not big on starcraft, stumbled here, but very intense game by both players, and the commentators made it much more exciting.
Darn, Bly pulling back from the recall with all the zerglings, leaving the queens to die was the game losing factor. That army probably could have won against the recall and even if it didn't there wouldn't have been enough left to push but all the queens wouldn't have died for free.
That and not assuming DTs would be coming at some point. He had so much time to just build a single safety spore crawler at Neeb's natural when he started building a hatch there. They're cheap. There was no reason not to have one when that's one of the few ways to instantly lose a game.
DT's being unbeatable units was actually the game losing factor. Without the DTs doing insane dmg, the hatchery would've finished and neeb would've run out of resources while bly could have built up. DTs being so high DPS is kinda silly actually. Only other unit that can attack while invis is lurkers (banshees run out of energy).
@@asdfasdf-mn8iu Terran speaking here. DT's have to walk, are very fragile and costly, which makes them ah-oh-kay in my book of balanced things. With banshees even if you have detection it's not that easy to get rid of them if you're lacking air-air attacks and lurkers outdps everything just because of splash.
@@FullMetalGladiator Nah, Lurkers lose badly to archons and immortals, frankly well-managed zealots alone are enough to take them out.
DTs can hit pretty early, i'd say way earlier than lurkers and can also kill your integral structures easier because they're invis while moving and have higher single-target-DPS. They are a unit that can instantly lose you the game if you have no detection. I was never fond of such units because i don't really see the point of being punished that harshly for a rather simple mistake.
@@asdfasdf-mn8iu DTs are not an unbeatable unit. Like I said: Bly had plenty of time to get one spore up at that natural, which is all he would've needed; the five spine crawlers he had would've nearly insta-gibbed any DT that got into range if he'd had detection up in advance.
DT dps isn't what made that a game-losing oversight, their stealth is. Having absolutely zero detection in place when he already had the capacity to build it was a huge error.
I came here skeptical
*left humbled*
@.@
That was awesome. So glad my favorite race one :-)
You two together are an epic announcer duo.
