| Episode 8: Nydus Swarm Host Rush, "Foggy Munster" | 11 Nov 2025 | 00:56:06 | |
Professor Phi, Battling Bard, and Space Camel explore a highly unusual Zerg cheese: the Nydus Swarm Host Rush. We also argue over a recent balance patch. | |||
| Episode 7: Cheeses from Chess | 04 Jun 2025 | 01:05:52 | |
Colnel2000 joins Space Camel in a special episode where we look into what StarCraft 2 players can learn from the 1600-year-old game of Chess. | |||
| Episode 6: Skytoss, "Lunar Roquefort" | 18 Jan 2025 | 00:58:16 | |
Space Camel is joined by Eel Cezno to discuss the staple Protoss Strategy: Skytoss. Maybe it shouldn't be considered a "cheese" strategy, as it definitely isn't fast. But it is a solid strategy many new--and even mid-level-- players struggle to deal with, and certainly merits learning about. Join Eel Cezno and Space Camel as we open your mind to new ways to think about the giant Protoss air army: Skytoss! Also, we play a few rounds of "Void Rays, Tempests, Carriers" for the half-time show. Lastly, we end it off listening to the original song "Flight of the Skytoss" by suno.com, also freely available here: https://suno.com/song/1ea62722-ba21-4309-94f3-5e761d63139e Enjoy! | |||
| Episode 5: Cannon Rush, "Black Hole Feta" | 09 Aug 2024 | 00:59:45 | |
Battling Bard joins Space Camel to discuss the truly nefarious-and-often-infuriating Cannon Rush. Half-Time show is a joke and story about a martial arts newb who trolled a prestigious competition and won by abusing the rules. | |||
| Episode 4: Proxy Barracks Bunker Rush, “Gas Giant Swiss/Gorgonzola Blend” | 01 Jun 2024 | 01:13:03 | |
DocLobster joins Space Camel (while Professor Phi puts a kid to bed) to discuss the basic 2-barracks proxy bunker rush. We finish the episode with an AI-generated song for each podcast episode. You can also listen the full songs at https://suno.com/playlist/c05d5f93-2b84-4af1-89bf-3527821c19a6

| Episode 3: Stalker Rush, “Solar Mozzarella” | 17 May 2024 | 00:36:34 | |
Space Camel shares his 8-stalkers-at-4-minute rush which is especially effective at fellow Protoss players, but generally good for punishing greedy opponents. We also talk about the buzz regarding the “SC: Evolution” mod which lets SC1 players face-off against SC2 in the same game. It’s a bit early to tell, but SC1 + SC2 must just equal SC3! (Custom closing song, “Warp and Destroy” by Suno.com)

| Episode 2: Baneling Bust, “Comet Medium Cheddar” | 10 May 2024 | 00:47:09 | |
Space Camel shares his SCCV, we talk Baneling busts, listen to a theme song for the show generated by AI (suno.com), play “How many Banelings does that take?” and pontificate on why cheeses improve the StarCraft experience.

| Episode 1: Zergling Rush, “Supernova Camembert” | 02 May 2024 | 00:38:03 | |
The Space Camel is joined by Zerg Diamond League player Professor Phi to discuss the quintessential Zergling Rush. We also hear about Professor Phi’s SCCV (Starcraft Curriculum Vitae), listen to supposedly unused audio for Zerglings by the same voice actor as the WarCraft 2 peon/grunt, and compare StarCraft to Tetris, Chess, and Poker.

| Test Episode: Worker Rush, “Atomic Blue Cheese” | 20 Apr 2024 | 00:22:49 | |
Figuring out how podcasting works. Just space camel doing a monologue about worker rushes and why I think they’re actually a good way for new players to figure out the game, or at least get some revenge on a more experienced friend who’s given them a handicap.
