I made a blog about where I could download some BW VODs, and I got some really good suggestions, and now I've downloaded them. These days I'm thinking of ripping videos from Youtube, but as there is SO many games to rip, I need advice.
So, what do you think is a must-see BW game? These will be watched, ripped and put in my 100gb+ archive of VODs.
If you know of any "historically important" games, I would be happy to know about them as well. (by historically important I mean games where new techniques have been discovered or used, or just set a new standard for play or something like that)
I still really miss BW

One off the top of my head is Bisu vs Flash on Katrina Set 3 in the Bacchus 2008 OSL Semi-finals. Pretty awesome PvT.
Bisu vs Stork Game 5 of the GOMTV MSL Season 2 Stork vs Fantasy Game 5 of the Incruit OSL (the whole series is pretty awesome to watch though) Jangbi vs Luxury Game 2 of the Lost Saga MSL Flash vs Jaedong Game 3 of the NATE MSL (Power Outage game) Flash vs Action. Proleague game Ace Match I think. Epic Late game TvZ.
Edit: Added a few more games.
|
Bisu vs Savior MSL Finals are some of the most important games. Zero vs Great was a really awesome ZvZ. Any Bisu vs Jaedong games are awesome(andromeda, Destination, Judgment day, Heartbreak Ridge, Blue Storm are my favorites) Bisu vs Savior(basically all of them) Flash vs Jaedong on Rush Hour, Fighting Spirit(Bigfile MSL), Tau Cross(WCG) Stork vs Sea on Dreamliner was pretty cool. There's a lot more, BW makes a lot of great games.

I think you should rather focus on "high level" games, instead of "historically important", cause the later is rather subjective. Besides, it would be easier if you take the whole series and not just a single game, thats out of the context of the match. If I'm to name a must see series, with absolutely s class level of play by both players, go for the Bisu vs Flash semifinal of bacchus OSL. Its imo the best series of pvt/tvp ever played.
GOM MSL S1 finals changed a specific match up forever, but the series were not close by any means
|
My favorite is still the Bisu vs Yellow game on HBR, mostly because of the energy of the commentators and the crowd Other favorites of mine that come to mind:
Firebathero vs Flash on Neo Medusa Flash vs Fantasy in the most recent MSL Semi Finals (the whole series) Flash vs Hero on HBR (because of Flash' new TvZ style at that time resulting in a one-sided rapefest) Hoejja vs Kal on Match Point July vs Best on Andromeda Stork vs Jaedong on Match Point Leta vs Pure on El Niño and on HBR Nada vs Jangbi on Byzantium 2 (first game)

savior vs bisu msl finals all games savior vs iris Game 5 osl? Semis iloveoov vs reach osl semis games 1+5 iloveoov vs boxer osl finals all games (game 4 is definetely a must) bisu vs stork msl finals game 5 fantasy vs ggplay osl semis not sure which games
so hard to remember specific games there are SO many hmm...
ggplay vs iris osl finals game 5 fbh vs savior osl? semi game 1 iloveoov vs zeus @ requiem (funny game worth watching imo) jaedong vs iris @ sin chupung ryeung(sp?) hwasin vs savior @ desert fox (this is from their msl semis I believe not sure which game though)
|
Fbh vs Jaedong (can't remember what/when) was pretty epic if I remember Then of course the giant comeback in Boxer vs Joyo from ages ago (This is a DEFINITE)

ah and make sure to watch IntoTheRainbow vs Cloud on Jim Raynor's Memory 2. Its the most amazing game ever played. It will be nice for you to see ITR in action so many years ago
|
There was a game with mass nukes in the past year. It was an amazing watch. If someone knows this game throw it up, i'd like to rewatch it.
|
NC Yellow vs. Bisu on HBR PL just for the audience which was amazing.

Casy vs Jy "I will nuke you into retirement" game
|
jaedong vs. fantasy on sin chupung ryeong (think it was sin anyway) where jaedong... don't want to spoil too much but fantasy looses his entire army when jaedong decides its xmas-time! such high level play from jaedong. my god
|
I suppose it's not a "game" but if you can somehow fit the reverse all-kill CJ/Oz series in that would be awesome. I don't think I'll forget how disappointed I was by game 3 and so happy I was by game 7.
Also, without a doubt, Tempest vs. Light where tempest has 30+ kills on his dragoon after a BBS. OSL or MSL
Kal vs. Someone (sorry, zero?) where it is a PvZ with infested terran is definitely a new technique kind of game. PL
Savior vs. Someone (toss) where he finds and kills the last pylon after base trades. PL
Bisu vs. Pokju where 2 gate behind the mineral lines leads to an unforgettable face by Pokju. PL
Bisu vs. Iris ; didn't watch but I heard it was an epic PvT. GOMTV

daezang vs jju on arcadia2 for one of the most impressive demonstrations of reaver/sair ever daezang vs really on medusa for one of the sickest reaver-plays in pvt ever
biased? maybe a bit.

yea but the game vs nal_ra was a bit different (took place in the late game instead etc)

All the OSL finals. At least I'd first put those on DVD. So great to go chronologically through the BW history.

Probably means Hiya vs Free on Triathlon. Flash vs Best on Match Point in Nate MSL had a nuke too.

I guess I must be thinking of something else entirely...

Also surprised, that one was an absolute classic.

leta vs pure (heartbreak ridge) did have a nuke in it, he's correct

Jaedong vs. Flash on Katrina (set 3 quarter final Bacchus OSL) Calm vs. Flash on Fighting Spirit (set 3 semi final Korea Air OSL)

I've started to download all your suggestions now. I download all the games of the same series, not only your suggestions, with the exception of games in many parts(like a BO7 where all the games have 4-5 parts), because I'm too lazy for that

sAviOr vs Iloveoov @ Ride of Valkyries
Most epic game on earth, see swarms being casted by defilers that are seeming invisible

I've downloaded all of them now! I'm also looking to to download at least one from each year(even though I can't recall any leagues from 1998), so please tell me about some good oldies

July vs Best OSL Finals, so exiting

from bacchus09 OSL? yea that was really good too lol
edit- oh yea, yellow vs oov @ uboat from their MSL final was amazing

Does anyone know about VODs from 1998 and 1999? Would be really cool to have VODs from early tournaments!
|
|
|
Wow, I've started seeing some of them, and I love 'em! But doesn't anyone know of VODs from the first years of BW?

Boxer vs. Killer
This is far from being a "must-see" game, but since most of the ones that I were thinking of were already mentioned and since it also holds a special place in my heart for so many reasons. Seeing Boxer play for the first time in so long was amazing and bringing in nukes was just hilarious to watch. Plus, it also led to my favorite "Hwaseung House"
