lol so true. Just for anyone wondering its pronounced sick-ade-uh. They're an insect common to the US which lie dormant underground for many years and then all start to grow in a given year and suddenly they (and their discarded shells as they grow) are everywhere. They sound a lot like a louder continuous cricket with a bit of constant buzzing noise which can be frequently heard in many movies portraying the rural south.
Sih-kay-duh I think is the phonetic spelling. Not that it matters much, but some foreigners may be confused with the first syllable if you spell it that way.
@@alexsis1778 not trying to bash, but why did you phonetically spell it out, but then put the sylable breaks in the wrong locations? Cicada is 3 syllables, sure, but the second syllables definitely isn't ADE, it's KAY. If the D sound were in the second syllable, there would be no D in the third.
Let's not forget most Cicada-cycles are based on a prime number-year cycle.. because them bugs know that having a cycle based on a prime number limits the number of overlapping generations.
as per the wiki: Lock On is an ability and therefore ignores the armor of a targeted unit, but also does not profit from Vehicle Weapons Upgrades: it does a flat 20 damage per shot and delivers one shot every 0.71 seconds (the same speed as its regular weapon attack). The Mag-Field Accelerator upgrade the damage per shot against all targets to 30.
These Florencio vids are such a treat. Appreciate the content Lowko! I'll be pouring one out for our dearly departed brave Brenda. She was taken from us too soon.
Gotta tip my hat to you lowko ! It's been at least a year that i haven't seen Florencio play. And then I remembered that roughly a month ago, I asked you about if whether or not you could cast a Florencio's game, and then here we are ! Goes directly to my heart xD
Always good to see more "non professional" games. Its all well and good seeing the top tier, but imo the weirder and messier games found in the lower tiers are more fun.
The proxy nexus game you mentioned was Bunny vs. sOs in the GSL three years ago. The proxy nexus recalled two adepts into Bunny's main, produced a single probe after which the nexus died. Probe made a pylon and sOs won the game with two DTs.
love the florencio files. another one you should get on the channel is PrintF. dude has very interesting games and will even send his losses. legendary shenanigans
Kind of glad you are not familiar with a Cicada. It is a gross, loud insect that takes 13 to 17 years to mature. They come out of their shells all at the same time and are terrifying to me since they were everywhere the year I moved to the US. Super loud bugs and you would find their empty husks that they emerged from everywhere afterwards. I just thought you would might find it interesting to look them up and be grateful you don't have them over there!
The fortunate thing is they are not year round and aren't bad for humans (besides the noise and crop damages, but farmers get rid of them anyway), otherwise I imagine they would be a lot more disliked.
the zegaling whingie, its also tru with James Raynor when he calls one on Heart of the Swarm, he pronounces it like that meaning that there's two iterations off it
Beat me to the punches, but yeah I’ve heard it pronounced that way before… prolly just by accent or something but I’ve always heard and pronounced it as chick-ay-duh
u HAVE to watch the florenciofiles in order to prepare for a flow-cast! EVERY wannabe-sewer-mermaid knows HOW deadly that bunker in the mineral line is!!^^
An hour ago I had hair down to the middle of my back. Now I am bald from ripping out my hair while yelling at the screen "GET SOME DAMN UPGRADES!" Why the armories if you don't use them? It had me nearly throwing chairs until I finally saw the armories spin up. "Hell, it's about damn time" ` Tychus Findlay
Hah. I didn't know that if you jump with Neural Parasited Battle Cruisers just a few steps forward, that the Neural Parasite cord stays on. That should not be possible logically.
Lowko: Shows game timer - 57 minutes Me: Checks video length - Just shy of 69 minutes (nice) Lowko: Pauses to check pronunciation of cicada Allllrighty then!
Cicadas are large insects made conspicuous by the courtship calls of the males. They are characterized by having three joints in their tarsi, and having small ...
interesting cheese idea for the developers, based on 14:20 : lifted units by phoenixes get recalled with the phoenix to the nexus lol probe abduction to GM
LoL Lowko finally broke and resorted to "let me show you myself!!!!" But it was a good point to make and he clearly showed what he was talking about. LoL that's why I hit the like button when I see a video by him.
the armory holds munitions, so rifles but also missiles and cannons. the engineering bay should handle all the non-weapon stuff if this was real life. i guess all armor upgrades would be engineering bay and weapon upgrades from the armory.
Yes it's cicada with a hard a. Its a giant bug in America that comes out of the ground in the trillions every 18 years to die. It's a lovely experience.
Last time when i played sc2 i almost cried because i was disapointed by my skills level (i was in platinum). After seeing that I m now like nah could be worse. Thanks for making my day
You can tell Lowko isn’t from the US because the first opponent’s name is cicada. It’s a bug that makes a loud noise all through the fall….. and as I’m typing this he googled it. 😂
Lol that nexus rush... so stupid... and that opponent was sooooo salty and all he really had to do was fly his 2nd CC somewhere else, anywhere away from the main... xD
Adrenalin Glands weren't finished at the start of the Thor/Zergling fight. Zerg would have won with less losses if they had waited just 15 sec. longer.
