I was confused by the inclusion of the map sin 815 in SRT 15, the latest round of Sonic’s glorious Broodwar ranking tournament. I had never heard of the map because I only started watching Broodwar around the Jaedong and Stork era and it’s much older than that. Since I have nothing better to do I have been watching old VODs of games on 815 and it’s variants to see how it plays and learn what to expect from the up coming tournament (I am aware the tournament’s started).

Depressingly quite a lot of the VOD’s seem to have disappeared or at least the links from the TLPD don’t work anymore. However here’s my favourites from the games I did manage to find and I would appreciate any good suggestions for any others out there.

Boxer VS July

Best rush/map abuse I have ever seen.

GGplay Vs Yellow

Truly epic hive ZvZ,devourers,queens, stop Lurkers, so much plagued mutas.

XellOs Vs Anytime

It starts of with Anytime goes for a ballsy expand the other side of the map and XellOs try’s to punish him with one base dropship play…

Boxer Vs Anytime

Droptastic

Anytime Vs Iloveoov

Fun Reaver rush.


Watching these games it’s clear it 815 is very differently to most of the maps in the recent map pool. A lot of the recent maps have become very standardised and similar. I think it will be really exciting to see the most recent generation of players play on a map that plays so fundamentally different. Even if the map turns out to be a bit biased

There is no gas at your natural and the only other gasses require drop to get to or are the unoccupied mains far away across the other side of the map. This means most game play (except rushes) involves mass dropships/shuttles.

Z v Z looks very promising as the lack of gas means it takes longer to build up a good number of Mutas. Because the players are likely to have all the minerals they need and the muta numbers take longer to build its likely spore colonies will be able to hold of any early muta pressure. That combine with such a tiny ramp means it’s quite unlikely for a ZvZ game to end really quickly on 815.

I’m depressingly stuck back living with my parents in England until my leg gets better and their internet sucks and is limited during the day so I have to download VODs at night and watch them back during the day. This is why I haven’t seen any games from SRT15 yet. Please upload VODs, Thank You.

Edit -----

Boxer vs Chojja (pimpest play)
part 1

part 2


Boxer vs Pusan

Carriers

It's not a definitive list of definitely the best games on 815. It's just some pretty good games I've found and had recommended. The SRT VODS are up now so I'm going to move on to watching them.

Just for clarification. SRT uses 815 III despite Sonic saying that he uses Sin 815 ^^

Haha 815 what a crazy map.

I recall the pro tvt vods featuring lots of dropship + goliath micro.

The map really throws you for a loop if you aren't prepared.

If you can find Boxer vs Chojja it's a must watch.

Also remember Boxer vs Pusan and Midas vs Savior being quite good. Also Savior vs some P I can't remember who, maybe Reach or rA featured some of the best anti reaver micro by a zerg I think I have ever seen.

Using 815 3 instead of sin 815 makes sense and removes the issue of the ramp that can be blocked with one barracks.

edit: (deleted bad vod)

I look forward to SRT15 games and thanks for not spoiling them.
