- Two viewer submitted replays in StarCraft 2. These games are played in Silver League and the strategies played are amongst the worst games I've seen all year. If you want me to make fun of your game in the future, you can submit your best replays to replays@lowko.tv.

As impressive as pro games are, these casts are what gave me the confidence to get back into SC2 and loving it more than ever
Just enjoy it, win some lose some
Yet, i still play worse than them
I know these videos make people who play starcraft a lot upset seeing misplays but as a casual player I really enjoy seeing these!
Yep I didn't play SC much, the pros game are cool and all but casual player games are much much more entertaining for me because it can be boring when both players just do good and perfect every game like pro players game.
@@MrBronze15 EXACTLY
These are a lot more fun to watch than pro games.
I dont even play starcraft but i still like watching the average player xd
I don't know, man, watching those videos is kinda entertainment but more like being a bystander to a horrific car accident.
The reason the Liquipedia description for Building armor was that old is because the upgrade was merged with Neosteel Frame into Neosteel Armor, which is what the upgrade is currently called.
i love this kind of replays more than the proplayer vids.
Finally my favourite series is back!
That was the most impressive Terran build I have ever witnessed. The delayed barracks, the delayed scouting barracks, the delayed factory (also for scouting), the proxy engineering bay for upgrading (not for the bio upgrades though, already sacrificed the barracks for scouting), the proxy gold base for gas mining, the aggressive supply depot rush, still getting supply blocked in the mid game, losing almost all of the banshees for 1 queen, and finally the mass battlecruiser army. Absolutely flawless.
Why, I simply can not imagine what more he could have done. My word, we need to nerf the Zerg.
The factory chilling in the corner with like 20 overlords cracked me up every time I saw it.
"But the banshees Ohhh smelling danger...decide to go back in." hahaha
You can have high dpi but set cursor movement speed low, then you can still benefit from increased precision, as the mouse correctly registers movement more reliably. It helps against stuff like the cursor shaking or drifting even when you're not moving the mouse. A better mouse pad is probably a cheaper fix for those issues though I guess.
Actually not completely true, generally speaking, a mouse with a higher maximum DPI has a better sensor than a mouse with a lower maximum DPI. The polling rate is the most important in terms of 'registering' movement.
The real game killer is windows mouse acceleration, which is enabled as a system default. It changes dpi depending on how fast the mouse moves, ruining game input.
Yes that's also true. Didnt even think about that since i've disabled it since a looooong time ago, lol. You need raw mouse input. @@Bobucles
The pain in Lowko's voice casting lower level SC2 games is hilarious. You are the best Lowko!!
21:00 he walled off his planetary, not the ramp, not the main, but his actual mining base 😂
Non-pro games are almost always more fun to watch cause it just honest gameplay, with next to no boring meta in use. Love it for the crazy fun!
I have been dreading going back to SC2 and playing ranked in general, but after seeing these games, I'm feeling very confident
I love how viewer games slowly make Lowko go insane!
Hi channel members! Here's your early access to this video. Hope you enjoy. :)
Honestly I love the content of average joe players being cast by professional casters. It gives a lot of perspective of the spectrum of skill from someone starting out and GM/Pros. Also it's hilarious.
I feel like in game 2, Terran's early game was - "I need to move my base to somewhere the other guy will never find it" - not realizing that Starcraft maps aren't that big.
cast of the year. "if protoss wins this im gonna cry myself to sleep" into the existential crisis of proxy auto tracing rush, you need to do more of those please
The reason they market higher DPI for "gaming" mice is because it generally results in lower latency, which is obviously very important for anyone playing games competitively. That's why it's typically better to run a higher DPI with a lower in game sensitivity. Although, you don't really need much higher than like 1200-2000 DPI. Once you get past 2000, you start getting diminishing returns.
DPI is only for precision, not latency.
It's not by much, but it does slightly lower latency. That's why it shouldn't be taken seriously in marketing. Precision is kind of a given though.
@@itranscendencei7964 How does this reduce latency?
@@BartomiejGawron Higher DPI mice tend to have better sensors which means a faster polling rate, this should result in more responsive motion, at some point though the difference will become imperceptible.
The terran was doing the Banshee Battlecruiser comp, aka BBC
Yay i came back to watch a starcraft vid at the perfect time. that zerg kill on his own hatch had me laughing so hard
Love the fact that lowko try to make sense of the situations but ended up with confused noise all the time... LoL
Watching these is honestly very entertaining and hilarious. Please more!
I have to say, props to whoever sent that first game. Whichever one it was, they're displaying a lot of humility to the world by showing that.
Yes! I really like viewer submitted games! It so funny how Lowko subtlety make fun of them with those sarcastic comments. I like pro gamers videos too, but while they are exciting, they are not funny. These scenarios are way more fun to watch for me. Please keep on doing them!
This might be the first time I've seen a terran player not make a single marine in the entire game.
YES! So glad to see you return to this series. Lowko casts of viewer submitted replays are my favorite
Love seeing you casting viewer submitted games, would love to see it more often
I've seen Ketroc actually make somewhat good use of proxy engineering bay.
Basically, he built it to block the opponent's expansion, and completed it in order to use it to make his planetary fortress at his natural. And also used it to research hi-sec auto tracking.
After watching this i have decided to get back into SC and proxy an engineering bay every single game. Anything less would be uncivilized.
This first zerg killing his base...
Pro matches are like fine dining, but sometimes you just want a cheeseburger
Awesome! This is what got me watching you all those years ago.
Alright! More VSR's!! I love these, even if they do raise your blood pressure a bit, lol XD
this was the funniest cast i have ever seen
Thank You!!!
That was entertaining and... painful at moments to endure LOL 😅
The last time I ventured into playing Starcraft II ... I was using the “Shadow” remote computer services over a cellular phone phone network on a iPad...
Which meant that i had no keyboard whatsoever and sort of a delayed ping within the ping...
I loved playing against the computer but only played against other players or in team mode accidentally when the ping situation and mouse only controls combined with my frustration creating multiclick misadventures like it was a lost in space episode!
The “Shadow” remote computing is awesome!
The interface between multiple device platforms is probably still wonky but it works... if it was possible to set up games for people who are using the same problematic limited platforms over multiple platforms and ridiculously long additional turn around signal times...
LOL 😂🤣🤣😪 i think it would be alot like these games... only using the mouse and having no hot keys, no direct commands without opening popup screens... LOL
I Loved playing the game like that...
Against the computer.
I had to use the pause button occasionally which is outrageous for a PvP game.
That’s what some of the goofiness reminded me of...
Long delays waiting for the ping... waiting for the screen... waiting for the order to go through...
By that time... wait whats happening? LOL
EXCELLENT COMMENTARY AND PLAY BY PLAY ANALYSIS!!!
The true spirit of SC2. Can't wait to see Stormgate's silver league
Building armor was before they merged the upgrades, now it's neosteel armor
Looking back while I was playing SC2 all the strats and misplays are kinda relatable. Though ofc when I come back surely I will not commit such atrocities.
My favorite series returns!
0:22 Oh I’ve missed these, let’s go!
I came back to finish the video got my food ready and at 21:56 was perfect 🥰 love lowko commentary started my day good
34:00 Directed by Micheal Engineering Bay
Finally some more viewer games, yay and thanks. You really made us wait for this one.
More than half the fun of these videos, is that you can see Lowko roll his eyes and facepalm through the silent parts when he sees the mistakes.
All other terran structures like the barracks, starports, factories, and bunkers.
Good to see the viewer submitted replays again
10:05 I'm dying! Omfg!
I love those.. like a palit cleanser 😊
Low level games are always so entertaining, just so absolutetly silly
I love your viewer submitteds
i really love seeing these type of videos lol
Killing your own Lair is a new low for viewer submitted games. I love it!
Omg yesss finally these type of videos are back! 🥳
I love you're commentary on this game xD
Bronze league heroes are the best! You need to do more of these. They are always so very entertaining.
Making a Baneling nest and using them against the Zealots warping in a minute later. Playing 4D checkers here.
Make overlords for the next game 😂. That was a good one. Thanks for the laugh Lowko.
what is the point of getting prodution structures and then NOT PRODUCING ANYTHING!?
I had a guy try to go straight to BCs one time, like legit didnt build anything else except for stuff to get to BCs and i just built a bunch of zerglings and clicked on his main
These games are actually what I can connect with caus I can understand what the person is actually thinking
Reminds me of a game that I did an engi bay block…..my opponent went proxy gate, and being distracted by that I finished the engi bay, and I ended up winning with a +1 push
Lowko was suprisingly calm and infomative on this noob players cast.🎉
I'm glad you decided to return viewer games, they are much cooler then average pro game.
High level strat at 10:15 to get the broodlings out 😂
I like replays like this. I don’t feel so bad about my game play, LoL
I love the viewer submitted games. I sometimes make instant noodles or a pizza and instead of watching TV I choose one of these videos. Btw, I also have no idea what was going on in the second game
So question: if we had a zerg player and an opponent, maxed out and mining out the map... what if the zerg just makes a billion overlords to face tank for their army?
Would that actually be able to do much?
Plain overlords are used in drops in order to distract from the dropperlords. Overseers can used to make vipers/corruptors more difficult to target (clump them all into a big ball).
Moment of silence for Nacho's Lair
surely this will make it to Harstems IODIS reviews
lol, i already love your professional comments - but these are just epic ;))
yay i love viewer submited, so diffrent from the usual. we need more of this
i missed these so much
Perfect thing to wake up to. Thank you Lowko!
I am 5 minutes into the video and I already love the format xD Pro games are nice to watch because they play well. But for me as a noob it is very entertaining to watch casual players and maybe also good to learn with your comments
How many times did Lowko die inside sitting through these cringy games? lol
The entire second game was just an extended sigh of disappointment.
the famous 11 overlords counter to proxy fortress 😅
I missed this type of games
If I got the Armor Upgrade and massed Ravens + Vikings, how annoying could I be? lol
Yea Silver league heroes. Hell it's about time!!. Let the cringe begin!!!
We need more of these
When I saw the two starports, hi sec, and building armor I was really hoping it was raven/auto turrets, because at least there's a synergy. Imperative is just mad lol
It depends on when this game was recorded, but building armor no longer works with auto turrets.
Thanks for another viewer submitted games.
I try to watch other SC2 casters. Can’t do it. Back to Lowko every time.
100 bucks says there's an IODIS form in Harstems inbox right now.
Last time I was this early the umbilical cord got wrapped around my neck...
My biggest dream is to see one of your Silver/Gold League casts and find myself in it. So more of that!
I wanna play againts guys like this
Low level games are always fun to watch, you know they're having more fun than higher level players and the plays are so dumb that it's entertaining to watch.
21:17 😂😂😂
Yay!!! The true players are back!
It's a nice game and nicer cast. But i would question the Zerg player mmr.
He individual micro his queen to pull back against zealots. Manually prioritize pylon.
Re adjust zerglings attack formation for better coverage area.
Those are not silver league moves. 😂
First game was clutch
You may not like it, but this is peak starcraft
8:19 the "nope and hope"?
These replays are arguably more interesting than pro players. You never know what these guys are gonna try to pull off. True creativity for better or worse (often the latter 😂)
What the heck is wrong with Nosnacho? Literally terrible
in all my days waiting for a youtuber to randomly say my name, today made me excited and sad. 15:32
viewer submitted games are the best tier of StarCraft
haha my brain hurts watching this
as a netbook track pad player myself, i think Nacho did very well.
