Mission 2 "Sudden Strike" from the StarCraft II Nova Covert Ops DLC missions played on Brutal difficulty.

Sorry it looks janky in a few parts. That's where the checkpoints are because I died because I'm bad.

I took the damage nade and sniper. The stun nade isn't really helpful compared to one shotting groups of light units with the nade. I chose the sniper cause Q does great damage from far away and since I'm building mostly reapers need it for Overlords and other air units.

Mostly mass Reapers in this one. Marines and Marauders will take too long to path around the map, but they're alright in bunkers and defending. Spamming spider mines on the paths is pretty critical. Staying on the high ground with reapers as they come down the path. Killing the Overlords is pretty helpful but I sort of lost track. 

The last wave is where it gets pretty hairy. Enough spider mines near the entrance of the base and maybe some bunkers should be enough to defend. I almost didn't make it.

Recorded at 1080p 60 FPS using ShadowPlay on a GTX 970.
