REACH
IS
MANLY
+ Show Spoiler +
Well, to expand on that, I am watching Uzoo MSL.. currently watching his serie against ChoJJa, entertaining as hell.
His serie against iloveoov was incredible, man that's some push breaking. His storm are still incredible by today's standard, and he gets some mind drags... In fact every game I've seen between those to was a great game (man, that stuff on Mercury...).
Despite the lowest level of play, I really enjoy a lot of those old bw matches. A bit different than the high level of play of today, and yet again...
ZvZ was awful though, and that's a match up I love in this age.
Requiem was also a great map.
Well, VODs to prove my point :


Oh yeah, and related, reread this last night, such a good write up.

Oh good, I was going to be sad/ mad if this blog was about anything other than Reach, given the title in a StarCraft forum

In other words, 5/5

Second to this. I saw the title on my sidebar, and thought, if there is no Reach in this blog, pitchforks and torches will be raised

Ah the good old days of BW (for me at least). Just doesn't have the same feeling without any of the classic teams or players anymore :[

Haha, i like how the commentators were surprised when the arbiter came out.

When the 3rd one came out, they're like "Wha...it came out again?"
And when stasis was used, "What is this? Stasis!?!?!"

Well, I came later to BW, but I think I partially understand. I mean, I don't watch BW for the same reasons I did 4 years ago if that makes sense.

Well, PvT really feels like the most modern match-up of this era, pretty sure there were lots of other changes, but the most glaring is the lack of arbiters^^ Like, why would you stasis, storm is so much manlier ? :p

To be precise, manliness is the adjective that corresponds to the noun Reach. When it's applied to something else, it's metaphorical.
In other news it's 5 in the morning, and I've just finished the Reach vs ChoJJa serie. Yeah, game 4 is 1h15 long or something. I didn't know it was that long and that it ended in a pimpest play (obviously saw it before). A bit long, but definitely worth it, and there are many great moment in that game. Game 5 is very short on the other hand, but also sexyyyyy as hell.
+ Show Spoiler +
2 gate with 3 probes pulled that delay the sunkens and kill one on their own because Reach knows what's up

Definitely one of the best PvZ serie I've ever watched.
