rA vs Boxer @Stout MSL game 1

Half of Flash's TvTs, a good part of sAviOr ZvTs.
Oh, and (thanks Ver) :


The most expic one already are in the OP, especially sAviOr vs Iris which is the best game ever played imho.
Edit : And Jaehoon vs FBH was not a comeback, it was an entertaining trainwreck.

BeSt vs. Luxury 2008 EVER OSL Semi-Final

Even though BeSt completely melted down in the Final against JulyZerg, you have to give him credit for what he did in the Semi-Final.
Down 0-2, practically have game 3 lost, he finds a way to win.

I completely disagree, I'd say 80% of the game posted here are better, but, yeah, Boxer.

Comeback as in : gain an unsermountable advantage, try as hard as possible to lose but still wins in the end ?

Comeback as in lose every bit of that advantage and get reduced to a few harvesters and no army to speak of, and then come back to win after all.

Boxer vs Anytime, I don't know which OSL Finals. It was a great series but boxer wasn't able to complete the reverse sweep.

flash vs fantasy on polaris was ridiculous. the counterattack while conceding topright turned the game. well, not really, it just gave him an out, a way to win if he managed to win a big fight.

and then fantasy overcommitted with that drop and flash ran with it, attacking relentlessly into bottom left, knowing that fantasy had only one base mining, while he was mining from two bases. the window to attack was very small but he recognized it and took it and pushed it as hard as he could, barely scraping out a win from what had looked to be an impossible situation.

Loses his natural after the first engagement. Fends off Bisu's 200/200 army by first losing his shuttle with 2 reavers. The rest of the game is his comeback and it's . . . unreal. When I saw it live I was at the edge of my chair clapping like a fool.
