Welcome back to learning with Lowko (educational series)
1. Most terran units don't report burrowed zerg because they don't want to get fired at for wasting a scan.
2. Nukes rely on the ghost's laster mainly as a safety precaution against hacking.
3. The raven is a lie.
4. The nydus worm's butt has a built-in back door.
5. A concave of spore crawlers out in stores near you now!

Until we meet again...

Bunny: Let's try a macro game!
Bunny after game 1: Let's....not do that.

19:45 C&C Generals was my jam back when. No unit caps and infinite eco potential. I'd box in my AI opponents, mass units, and steamroll everything. Nuke every inch of the map at once, my own base included. Peak fun for a 12 year old

Dark had that Thor on a leash in game 1! hahah

[fryllmancera]

I loved that 1 marauder who survived a swarm in 21:41

At 54:50 Dark makes a genius move: when pulling back the roaches after seeing the siege tank, he splits off the two near death roaches and sends them home on a suboptimal route, because he knows the banshee will intercept the roach cluster and would target them.

I'm a simple man I see nuke in SC2 I click the video and hit like

Poor jimmy. Has been told to hold the position while the other 3 marines grab some beer and pizza as an excuse.

"The Chompers are out. Chomp chomp chomp." "Chomp chomp chomp the Terran, gently down their base." Beautiful <3

at 27:08 the EMP did hit the Infestor. EMPs have a limit to the energy and shield damage they deal at 100 damage to shields/energy. The Infestor went from full 200 energy to 100 energy when the EMP hit, but it did hit. This means that EMP is still very effective against casters, but does not completely negate them in a single shot, unless they were already at half energy or less.

Also, the Terran Conglomerate? Ahahaha, The Kel-Morian Combine!

[SaltpeterTaffy]

Long games like game 1 are demonstrations of why the pros at the very top are on another level from pros like Bunny. Dark was winning for over a half hour, and it wasn't even a question. Dark closed Bunny's windows of opportunity so fast he made it look effortless.

Edit: And yet... *facepalm*

I feel like the random cycolone must be called thomas, thomas the train because thats wht it basically was in the starcrafts carbot series

[riakaraofficial]

In the first game Dark was actually getting more efficient trades in terms of gas. So the stolen gas was a bonus, but not the winning move neccessarily. Very impressive

[KamaronConClase]

OMG the first one WAS A BANGER! AND IT'S THE FIRST ONE!!!! Great cast as always Lowko, love your content!

[ryanfahey]

Introduce CEP for cancelled nukes and have them land at a random point in the circle. The earlier the nuke gets cancelled, the greater the CEP. This includes self cancelled nukes.

[Nekoyashiki-san]

That was quite the comeback. o_o
Thanks for casting. ^^

[alexchng]

Ravens will become part of the lategame meta the day Hell freezes over

[DrLife]

Lowko, are you the biggest RTS caster on YouTube? I got an idea on my head that maybe pig had as many subscribers as you, and I looked, it's not even close. You seem to blow every other caster I can think of for SC or AoE out of the water in terms of subscriber count. If so, congratulations, though it's probably old news to you. Still an accolade to be proud of

[codycarlson]

I love the command and conquer generals shoutout
