Is This SILVER OR MASTERS?? feat.  

Join the game yourself in Harstem vs the world right here: bit.ly/3G2rxvk

I thoroughly enjoy "Who Wants to be a GM," but there really is nothing like Rank Roulette! Excited for the new season, and great first episode!

Rank roulette is back, hoping for some banger guests this season!

WOO WE'RE BACK BABY! I will say that I actually quite like having Harstem vs the World in the description/comments, it increases the replay value for these videos after the season is over. I do wish that there was something either in the title or the thumbnail to make it distinctly Rank Roulette, because I don't watch every Harstem video, but I do really like IDOIS, Rank Roulette, and Who Wants to be a Grandmaster.

Finally a proper celebrity

I love this series! Quick suggestion: Can you tag the series name in your video titles? ex: Is This SILVER OR MASTERS?? - Rank Roulette This makes it much easier to watch my favorite series of your videos, and might help others too :)

Maybe it's an idea to incorporate the difficulty of the episode somehow? You could use Harstem's score as a baseline average for the episode. So for example Harstem scores 13 points on Episode 1 and 8 on Episode 2. You can add a (small) modifier of half the difference, say 2 points, to the guest in Episode 2. It'd also incentivize guests to try and gaslight Harstem which could make for hilarious content.

I can't believe it, I'm absolutely awful at this usually but suddenly was so close to the perfect game 0 0 0 1

Fun fact: the first replay of the new season was submitted by the NA Terran player: Kybrit. For those who know, know.

Yoooo shoutout to spekkoek. Colonial times were not the greatest in hindsight but spekkoek is one of the best things to come out of it.

Gold 1 (2) Gold 3 (2) Diamond 3 (0) Platinum 2 (3) - put me in the finals captain Lowko's gotta remember that silver/gold leaguers (like me) know that spellcasters exist but either don't know exactly what they do or we mess up the hotkeys, don't know how many times I've used blinding cloud on a group of vikings

I really want someone to submit one of Florencio's games to this series, just to see the utter confusion on their faces, lol.

As an Indonesian, finding Kue Lapis or Spekkoek in rank roullette was not something i'd ever expected to see LOL I never knew they were a thing in the netherlands too.

These 2 guys just having fun was the best thing, loved the episode - keep it up!

FINALLY!!! I was waiting for quite some time for this piece of gold of a content. Let the rank roulette begins

Hartsem is kind of like the pace car, so in addtion to their own score, they should add or subract what they win or lose to harstem by. So getting 15 points in a match where harstem gets 25 points, I would conclude it was an extremely tough set of replays and getting 15 points is a very good score.

Rank roulette was particularly entertaining, love to see it!

Rank roulette!! Let's go!!

I like the longer games but it might just be me

Wow thank you for doing a cast with Lowko!

Great! Glad Rank Roulette is finally back! Expect a lot of fun and cool music on roulette rolling! And went to buy spekkoek, looks very promising!

Nice to see the roulette back! I've had G1, G3, D2, and M3 haha, I have an easier time with the games around my level and missed the last one a bit more. :D

14 points today. Slightly behind both players. . . . R1: D1, 6 points. I call this a calibration game. I saw a lot of battles, a lot of decisions being made, and I was way off. R2: S2, 2 points. I feel this makes up for R1. I was thinking bronze until it went late game and they actually had a lot of bases. R3: D2, 2 points. Harstem guessed the same as me, he should be proud. (Jk, I'm proud I guessed the same as him). R4: M3, 4 points. Split the middle between Harstem and Lowko, thinking pretty much the same things they were. Hamster! Welcome back! I love this series, and I love the work you put into it. Harstem, I love how much content you put out for the community, RR was my favorite series until you came out with Who Wants To Be A GM and Changeling, but this is still a top 3 series.

Bro, I was just thinking about Rank Roulette like yesterday. Good to see it's back.

No episode will be as hard as UpATree's from last season. That was unreal. This was great tho. Love Rank Roulette.

Glad to see this back

yay! rank roulette is back! never played a game of starcraft online in my life, still im pretty good at guessing those ranks :D

The ZvZ at the end seemed to have a few occasions where you could see a player with fewer mutas deciding to stay and fight even though they had easy escapes which to me was a sign of being not great. Though, in game 2 I was impressed by the timely marine block on the zerglings running in right after the proxy hatch, so maybe single clips are not a good indicator of anything! :D

I hope we can get PartinG again now that he’s back, love that guy (almost as much as the poopman).

It's back! Yes!

Rank Roulett is the best content on that website xDDD Keep it up Harmstem!

I know you guys are the best of friends so I just can't wait for the uThermal rank roulette episode.

I still think the scoring for playoffs should be based on relative score to Harstem's score. This would make Harstem's guesses actually matter (in this format they do not) and it would balance out "hard episodes" vs "easy episodes" because Harstem would be setting a difficulty baseline with his score

Been hard stuck in Diamond 4 for a while now

terran - huge advantage vs harassment with lifting orbitals, fortresses, and repair, plus mules to compensate for the damage, and scans if they failed to build detection (which is almost always). I think the main parts of the game, which is probably engaging in the middle of the map, is still terran favored, but it's small enough that it's playable. It's in all these other circumstances that create the overall sizeable terran advantage. Some great pros can keep the game out of those circumstances and win and make the game look possible for non terrans. It's like the football equivalent of special teams. If special teams favor one side heavily, they will win most of the games, but it won't be obvious that they had an advantage because 90% of the game was balanced.

Thnx HAMSTER !!! How about inviting PiG or ZG ? ^^

What an insanely hard series of games to guess!

Best series on RU-vid 🎉

19:00 losing from that advantage made me thing Plat 2

Great, my favorite north belgian sc2 youtubers 😊

Yooo Rank Roulette returns 🎉

This was fun!

I kinda miss the Harstem vs Viewer- match at the end. I#D like to see it again some time

Im gonna suggest that rather than the playoffs be full of players that only had low points, that you also give someone negative points for beating harstem. So lowko would get 11 points here because he beat harstem by 1, and if he had won by 3 he woulda had 9. That corrects for some episodes being harder than others, and is also some proper good Dutch accounting for Hamster to do 😉 (If Harstem wins, I suggest you don’t add points to anyone’s score but just leave it as is. So winning against the host is like a bonus)

I did pretty well: gold 1 (1), gold 3 (1), plat 2 (2), diamond 1 (2) = (6.). It helps that I've fairly recently gone through gold/plat in NA.

Awesome with Rank Roulette again! Is it me, or do we see a lot less from the games? Do the contestants see more than we do in the edited version? Maybe I just have gotten used to Harambo, where we see a lot more. I wouldn't mind to see more if the contestants do that as well :)

Love this series, but it is tricky finding it on titles alone in the youtube feed.

IT IS BACK, YES YES YES

StarCraft RU-vid king lowko !!

The Spekkoek comments were a joke? Man, you just don't joke about the Spekkoek.

I called the league and division in the 2nd game so quick, I have played so many zergs like this few months ago.

where can you send in replays?

Oh it Looo-kwo…lokwo? Ohhh Hellowko!

Lowko AND Harstem? Yes please!!!!

14 for me. That last game destroyed me. I guessed master 1 lol

Woo my favorite series is back ^_^ 🎉

I agree with Lowko. I was gold 2ish, and I never touched infestors.

Harstem so nice if you to bring in the second best Dutch sc2 RU-vid to your show

Rank roulette is coming - with all its horror and all its glory!

I think it cut off early at the end there

That terran in game 3 was most certainly map hacking

2 of these games were the same rank. I guess gold 1 on one of them and master 2 on the other. I might as well just be drawing from a hat

Seems like for the harstem vs the world you did not tell us what server the replay is from

i think in 3rd round Harstem was off only by 1 no? 17:27 but got 2 points 17:37

Holy crap, I got every single one correct! I used to suck at these, guess I got some practice now :O Nice replays though, glad to see the Nederlanders competing against each other :)

Pretty good creep spread for a silver 1 though

OH snap, first time eveer I got the first 2 right.... have to watch the rest now :D

all this time I thought they were the same person!

Best game show out there not hosted by Steve Harvey… yet.

How does the point system work for this series? For example, game 1, Loko guesses Gold 2 and Harstem guesses Plat 1 and the game is Plat 3, so both guys are off by 2 leagues, but they get 3 points for that guess. Why?

Solid 8 for me good games

I can confirm i sometimes cast microbial shroud vy accident, because of how rarely i use festors. And im plat 1/diamond 3 depending on the days so wbagever that says To me it just says microbial shroud is so bad even when i dont mean to use it it hurts me ayo

I scored 6 and I have no idea how. I haven't played SC in years. Fun though! gg

So I didn't guess the first one, but I got the second and third spot on, and guessed plat 1 for the last one. And I don't even play sc2, maybe that's the key to being good at rank roulette?

ProbBly one of the best series in all of youtubs yeah iodis is great. Yeah bgwss is also great. But this is amazing 😅

10pts, great start for me

finally!

P3=0 I was thinking G2 if EU server but then gave it an NA bump :D G3=2 In what world was Lowko thinking this game was better than the previous one? XD D2=2 Yeah, this game was definitely somewhere in EU Diamond, so I tried to pick the safe choice in there P3=4 Geez, this one was hard. Might've overfocused on the complete lack of muta vs muta micro (´。＿。｀) Total = 8 Pretty nice for the first episode of the season :)

Silver always Silver.

Lowko should get seeded into playoffs.

These were my guesses: silver 2 bronze 1 diamond 3 silver 3

what the actual F - I watched every Rank roulette since the beginning and I was right on EVERY replay shown ?!?! normally I am way off but what was different this time lol - Harstem, check me in on this, I gonna burn ya´ll! xD

sad that 2 time champ won't be returning, but hey maybe Lowko only wins the odd seasons

I want to see one where no ranks are revealed untill the end, and they're all GM.

This is still going? I thought Harambo was the new rank roulette.

Rrrrrraaaannnnkkkket Rrrrooouuuulllllet!

I have no talent whatsoever, and I won almost all my games with BC rush, unranked, and I didn't do it well or with any build order. I'm smart but I just can't control the units worth a damn.

you should do a small section were you both speak your language. just to hear how it sound

YAAAAY 🎉

I guessed D2, D3, D1, D1 I really suck at this lol

you people really dont look at drone count, g2 zerg had 41 drones at 10 mins

Got 16 points on that one. I am so bad at this game :D

Spekkoek is the best koek

I'm going to comment my guesses as I watch, play along on the record. First game, Plat 3. They really didn't watch their troops or micro well.

How does the scoring work?

Love this and who wants to be a gm

didn't Lowko make 2 points in the last round? D1 to D3

I always get 6, 8, 9 points when watching the video, guessing before them and being truthfull, but when I play in the googleform replay I suck :|

Mans not got rank roulette in the title i almost didnt watch this

If we're inventing new leagues, put me in Bronze 4.
