I wanted people to give some attention to newer additions, and vote on them, rather than sticking to the only the ones that have stood the test of time.Oh, I missed the archive section. I feel moderately silly now, even if it was still marginally helpful. In general, I'd say that if you want to suggest a game here, by all means post it without checking to see if it's been posted before. It's a good thing when people double-recommend: it tells us something. If you're going to go to some effort to track down dates and VODs and format your post, then it's worthwhile to first click All and then search to see if someone has posted a formatted version of the game before you or if it has been added to the OP already. Meanwhile, your last suggestion actually turned out to be very helpful. There had been some confusion about those games, and the one that was already in the OP had been mislabeled as the other. I hadn't actually watched either game myself, and I hadn't even realized that there were two such similar games out there. After your post, I watched both games, and I agree with you that they are not only worth watching but worth watching together. I've added them as a pair now, to the bottom of the OP. I included a long, melodramatic write-up, as well. I'm afraid I got carried away... | ||

The last addition has brought us to game #100, though! Cheers! | ||

Your date seems to be off by one, though. The OP is "full" again, by the way, so I won't be adding any more games to it until some of the current games on the list get a few votes one way or the other. | ||

Pusan vs BoxeR on Rush Hour+ Show Spoiler [vod] + What is the most interesting thing about this game is that Boxer never scouted Pusan's build. Not once. He had no idea what Pusan was doing - but countered it perfectly. Using a build that had super fast scans he was easily able to dispatch of a 14nex -> dt build.
