  • For those who haven't seen it, Harstem made a video where he stole this build after getting beaten in this video. 🙂

  • At this point, if Thermy had to do a move on creep only challenge, I'm convinced he'd use overlords to spit creep, dropperlords to put units on them and somehow win without a single creep tumor. 😂

  • The reason the hydra drops look op is because I swear there are like 3 zergs in the world that realize zerg can make dropperlords so most GMs don't even think about it existing.

    • Hydra drops and nydus are pretty common at the lower leagues, especially in 3x3 and 4x4.

      @kgeo2686@kgeo26866 ай бұрын
    • Oh yeah constant nydus is like every other game in diamond 4v4 and it's pretty effective if you're good at dropping changelings and what not at that level since it's hard to watch an entire 4v4 map constantly. I guess the thought is that you might as well nydus if you have to get a lair either way and then you can teleport in and out as many units as you want. Dropperlords seems more effective in some ways as most GMs would catch the nydus building on the minimap @@greenlitlleman

    • A huge part of it is no one plays like uThermal does, because numerically, his builds are almost always easily shut down or super hard-counterable, at least in theory. The real skill is in the execution. uThermal's builds are almost always nonsense to anyone playing against them, because who in their right mind would play them? So people basically end up getting zero practice against them. There's a huge difference in your reaction the first time you see a build, and the second time you see a build, especially in the GM+ level. And that "What the hell is even going on?" kind of chaos is a significant part of uThermal's style. There are absolutely pros with better micro, pros with better macro, pros who can basically read your mind, but when uThermal pulls the sc2 equivalent of Aoki's "Look Away" technique kzhead.info/sun/pKaolKaQoHyfgoU/bejne.html (link for example) complete with pro-level micro, macro, and reads, and you just get tilted super easily. The most important part, I think, is that sc2 isn't about _reactions_ it's about _predictions_ . The best way to defend a drop isn't to see the drop coming and then send your marines or stalkers or queens or whatever to go counter, it's to have marines or stalkers _intercept the drop_ and _already be in position to fight back_ .

      @murphy54000@murphy540006 ай бұрын
    • To add to this, uThermal's build somewhat relies on his opponents being completely off-kilter the entire game, and you can very clearly see in the games that he loses that it's typically from him getting hard countered by someone who DOES get the read and understand what to do. Genuine pro-tier players would win against him significantly more often than you'd expect from his youtube videos - not that he's faking or sandbagging for cheap wins and hiding his losses from us, because he does show us plenty of losses and we get to SEE his MMR in every video - but the truth is that his playstyle simply isn't viable for tournament play. I'm sure he knows he's a monster on the ladder, but this is why he retired from professional play.

      @ElysaraCh@ElysaraCh6 ай бұрын
    • To add to these other comments; its about the mindset as much as the situation. Keeping a level mind is crucial at these speeds of play as tilting or getting distracted is a great way to fumble the ball. Thermy’s learned a lot from his pro play. He’s said in the past getting tilted is one of the fastest ways for him to make mistakes and it shows that he’s really done work on relaxing during games. It’s much less stressful too just being an ape on ladder, which shows in how much he loves playing this game. Man absolutely knows he’s a ladder demon. Without a doubt.

  • Cheese idea. I call it the bomberlord. Early game zergling harass/suppression/zergling drops. Get dropper lords with speed and plus 1 melee then just carpet bombing mineral lines with banes. Follow-up with a big zergling drop in the natural/main at the same time as you sneak in and ambushing the opponent’s defending army with roaches that have burrowed movement and the dropped zerglings. Idea being you cut off retreat with roaches then surround/sandwich with zerglings.
