  • The Uneggspected: It's an army of zerg vs 4 Marines, a Marauder, a Reaper, and a Ghost. Even better, the fight has the original Starcraft Terran 1 theme playing. The Terran group almost win, until the Ultralisk spawns.
    • During the credits showing the previous and next episode, its silent and just shows the previous episode unit, until a unit shows up on the next episode with three words: THOR IS HERE. *StarCraft Terran 01 theme plays*
  • In Burning tide part II of the second season, Patches the marine and Bob the angry zealot are dueling. Then, as the protoss tempest fires at the terran battlecruiser that the two are fighting on, the marine jumps off the ship to intercept the energy ball almost as big as the ship itself. And then, after getting hit and surviving, the zealot knocks him off the ship to the lava below. Cue the medivac with Patches and another marine with their Gauss rifles.
    • "Get some!"
      • And then the Zealot proceeds to singlehandedly take down the Battlecruiser they were fighting on.
  • Undermine The Overmind has a Dark Templar singlehandedly take out an entire Zerg colony. However, there came an Overseer that was morphed from an Overlord which enables detection for the Zerg. The Dark Templar was in a tight situation for he was cornered by the Zerg until a snap of a finger from a High Templar via Feedback destroyed the detector unit. This gives the Dark Templar an advantage for being cloaked means he can do whatever he wants. That is to take out those Zerg that could've killed him.
  • Core Values has several. Firstly, the Terrans(which are Marines riding SCVs) wipe out the Protoss defenders and proceed to hilariously make the whole base their playground.
    • The Zealot in the lava from an earlier episode arrives just in time to see the Terrans. What does he do? Why, spear-tackle a Marine, DROPKICK another and kill a third with one slash as an SCV tackles him.
      • It seems hopeless for the Protoss as the Terrans rampage through their base, until huge lasers from offscreen blast some of the Terrans to bits. Cue the Mothership Core rising above the Nexus as she prepares to wipe out the Terrans with Photon Overcharge and one HELL of a one-liner: Weapons systems engaged.
  • ArchOnslaught. He returns.
  • "GG No Re":
    • The Ghost surviving in space against the Dark Templar, destroying a Command Center and sending himself and several chunks of Space Platform debris crashing to the surface.
    • Medic going back to enlist the help of an entire army of Brood War-era units to assist the allied army.
    • The Gun-toting Overlord morphing into an Overseer and fighting with his new abilities without missing a beat.
    • A probe finds a wrecked Immortal and Bob the Zealot's remains. So it puts Bob in the Immortal and fixes it. Bob goes to work on the Red team, but gets damaged again. Right in front of Medic, who heals him. A restored Bob pops out of the Immortal and gets right back to slashing.
      • Bob takes out ALL SIX CAPITAL UNITS BY HIMSELF! That's a Thor, Colossus, Ultralisk, Brood Lord, Battlecruiser, AND Carrier, and they stood no chance against him! Then he rides the Battlecruiser crashing into the Mothership.
    • The lone Spine Crawler that holds on, giving the Allied Forces the time to win by simply being too stubborn to die.
    • Patches, Bob the Zealot, and a Zergling are surrounded by enemies on the Red Team's Mothership? What can they do? Kick all their asses.
    • Bob finally avenges his people by tossing the Protoss Executor down a shaft, mimicking Return of the Jedi. After seasons of rage, Bob sets aside his differences with Patches and allows him to help his friend.
    • Derpfestor gets a villainous one by joining the battle personally and wrecking the heroes, even taking control of a battlecruiser to try gunning them all down.
    • Amidst all the falling debris, the Ghost finds an intact Nuclear Missile silo.
    • The Zergling manages to save Patches, then tricks both Derpfestors into taking control of each other, causing them to BSOD.
    • Crackhead gets the mother of all Dying Moment of Awesome when he baits the entire Red Army into eating a nuclear strike. Heroic Sacrifice, indeed.
