if it was an island map, how the fuck did he get an scv over to his base to build the bunker?
|
Leave it to Yellow to get bunker rushed on an island map.

I guess it was a map like that weird one with the lurker eggs, Plasma I think. In which you'd need to get your SCV into your opponents base anyway to build the bunker so you'd be doing a straight up proxy anyway, no? Then again I wouldn't put it past boxer to bunker on a semi-island.

The Boxer match was called Dream of Balhae during the IOPS OSL.
It was remarkable because he bunkered the minerals from below, and this was the league right after EVER 1, where he had bunker rushed three straight games to win.

yeah to bad plasma wasn't out yet when he (boxer) and yellow were good
i think, i may be misinformed

I might be totally wrong here, but I believe YellOw lost to the Romanian oldschool player Shaman @ WGTour. (who is NOT a hacker btw)

"LIKE plasma". I.E. you can run SCVs through, but not units. Which is the only way I could imagine someone getting bunkered on a semi-island.

iirc he floated barracks + cc, build scv and floated it back, then built rines from that rax.

I think it might have been Mondragon. At least I have a replay of Mondi beating Yellow in ZvsT from those days.

So it wasn't a rush? He just made the bunker after he had expanded or something?

Sounds like an exciting guide if it's gonna involve old school games like that, looking forward to it.

That Dream of Balhae map is pretty cool, what is it with older maps and having completely un-ornamented mains? Also why dont we have any island maps nowadays? Generally their so fun.

If it's the game that mani is referring to I think there's a min only? or maybe it has a gas that can be taken on your island and that is vulnerable from the bottom by bunker. So yellow took his nat and then couldn't defend it because the bunker was on low ground.

Edit: you're joking right? he floated his cc to low ground, built an scv and walked the scv over to yellow's base where he built a bunker on lower ground to attack the drones. i think what was remarkable about the game was also the fact that yellow got a sunken and boxer actually started unloading/loading his marines to take hits for the bunker so he could buy some time.

Reason it's not better known: BoxeR lost the game.
|
The player yellow lost to was the german terran fenris, dont remember what tag he used at the time but he's fairly well known.

You are right, its Shaman
|
The dude he's referring to is fenris, who actually got caught hacking. I know shaman beat yellow too but that wasn't in that particular wgt season i think? well yellow did have two losses so the other could have been to shaman I suppose. I remember the game shaman beat him, but i think that was some time after yellow lost to fenris.
