StarCraft 1 PROTOSS vs StarCraft 2 ZERG!

The fact that this wasn't a thing earlier is beyond me, this mod is such a good idea

I would very much like to see more of this game mode. This looks like super fun.

Dark archon used Confusion, it's very effective... Lowko hurts himself in it's confusion!

SC1- Protoss: We are undefeatable! We got Maelstrom, a real Psi Storm and Stasis. Our Spellcasters will tear you down!! SC2- Terran: We still got EMP. On our Ghost. SC1-Protoss: ...

This effectively doubles the number of playable factions in the multiplayer, that alone has a lot of value. It helps that the SC1 factions are as cool (and brutal) as they are. Keep em coming, these matches are very interesting.

Assuming they didn't change any abilities, Dark Archons in BW had 3 abilities - they came with Feedback, which works the same as the SC2 version, and you had to research Maelstrom and Mind Control. Argus Talisman is indeed their increased starting energy research. So Maelstrom only works with biological units, but units hit by Maelstrom can still take damage, as you saw. This differs from Stasis (cast by the Arbiters, those hexagonal crystal prisons) in that units in stasis cannot take damage, but you can stasis everyone and their mother. Mind Control costs 150 energy AND all of the DA's shields, which makes it a very costly ability in more than just energy. This was a really cool mod, and I would love to see more. Mirror match ups on this mod would be insane to watch.

I'm already fan of non-professional wacky games, but this game mode is just fun on overdrive!! Please more of this!! I wouldn't mind seeing some pros trying this mode, maybe some tournament SC2 team vs SC1 team..

Maelstrom + Storms are so OP lol.

loved using arbiters in SC1. using recall to move your armies around constantly was so much fun. I wish he used a dark archon to mind control a drone!

THIS IS FINE WINE. The fact that this came in 2024, and not in 2014 just makes it a whole lot better.

I've never even played SC 2, but still sometimes watch your videos anyways so cheers. I'm 38 and used to play Brood War and the OG Starcraft. Not at a high level or anything. I remember zergling rushes were terrifying. And those suicidal scourges wrecking the air units. Fun memories.

This is awesome! We need more of this in the SC2 scene! The zerg player playing the match like he was also a brood war zerg was a mistake

SC1 psy storm is in another level, it deals 112 damage!

Not even the dragoons make me happier, than hearing a zealot snarl as he rips things apart!

It would be very interesting to see high level players from both SC1 and SC2 play against each other. Here, it felt like the zerg didn't understand their race very well

I seem to recall that at some point Blizzard tried experimenting to address the 12 unit limit in BroodWar. They tested a 24 unit limit and higher, turned out that such selection changes made Zerg incredibly overpowered, as having all your units moving is the key struggle in controlling them in BW, given that they have smaller supply costs in BW. So the 12 unit limit stuck.

It's incredible, this has a lot of potential. A few balance adjustments could even unite championships for Starcraft 1 and Starcraft 2 players and all their fans. It would be a delicious massacre!!!

This mod is genuinely the best thing that has happened to this community in a loooong ass time. I am absolutely in love with it the only thing that saddens me is that it wasn't made earlier 😂

This honestly was so fun to watch. I played SC and SC Brood War so much as a kid.

One of the important rules of BW is never let a Scv or drone go near a dark archon 😂😂
