question:

why is it so hard to find Flash's FPvods than others?
I can find tons of Bisu, Jaedong etc. FPvods but Flash.

After seeing some of this vods there are 2 big things that i notice that SC2 seems to lack to big wow moments.

Huge armies that fill an entire screen and more, (not a ball of units like SC2), and lacking of micro, with fast responding units (very high aceleration). Muta micro for instance looks much less impressive in SC2 because they take so long to acelerate compared to BW.

Mutas don't accelerate that fast in BW either, it's just that you don't let them slow down to begin with, that's the trick.

The game requires that the units stop to release one of those glaves so they gimped that unit in a different game.

( Even the unit sounds are superb )
This type of harass isn't possible unfortunately.

This is one is sort of similar, but done by a terran instead of a zerg. ( Commentators = White kids though )

YellOw: Out of his prime, on ACE and facing Bisu.

The map is heartbreak ridge and YellOw chooses to go for an unorthodox lurker drop..!

Battles between two pros are also very methodological and fun to watch. i hope they would introduce this type of play in Hots but the new units just steer sc2 away from BW even more so. i think i understand why many BW wouldn't want to switch to sc2, cuz it doesn't resemble BW at all.

I play SC2 exclusively now too for the same reasons you do: the game is just so much easier to play.

I still believe that BW is the superior game by a gargantuan margin, though. I just burned out trying to get better when I couldn't get out of D+ after six months of play, lol.


and that is why pro bw is impressive, despite hours of practice there is no way i could do jangbi storms, jaedong multi muta micro etc etc.

2004 Ever OSL.

This is the tournament where YellOw got bunker rushed 3 times over.
This is also where a student and his master fought over first place.

Boxer vs iloveoov. Boxer, known for his micro intensive strategies, and iloveoov known as the monster terran for his rampaging macro.

Exactly. I honestly dislike SC2. I hate the deathballs and all that, but I'm addicted to Squad TD right now, and my friends and I play team games a lot.

BW has a permanent place in my heart. ^_^

ok let me tell you about a protoss who wasnt as mechanically gifted as bisu and doesnt have the level of game knowledge as stork, but he produced the sickest games when he was at his best. This may also be something to remind everyone including the bw fans of him since he is somewhat forgotten right now.

Let me introduce to you, my hero, Violet. (I hope you come back this season, I miss you).

Yeah he wasnt the best protoss, but god damn, trust me when I say this, but you feel more "Thrill" in his games than watching the best protosses out there. Let me give you examples.

vs Bisu - a super intense PvP.


vs Hogil - a crazy crazy PvZ on one of my favorite maps, HBR


vs Hyuk - watch it and youll probably scream like a little girl too


vs Hero - contained me? ok ill just make some hts and bust out later


actually just search for his games from 2009 onward. you'll find many good games.

Also, GET WELL SOON VIOLET!

If you want to see some of the most artistic, and simply jaw dropping strategy and tactics- check out savior. He was the best management style zerg of his time, simply unstoppable!

as well as large-scale battles that doesn't end in 5 seconds
(at 12m 05s mark)

(spoilers)
This game should have 1 million views. GGplay maybe wasnt the best zerg of his era, but he played this particular game like he was. His multitasking and crisis managment in this game could be on par with modern top zergs easily. This game has all, plagues, swarms, hold lurkers, flanking, harrasing, drops. The moment when GGplay control like 4 control groups of units and trying to flank iris from all sides... man. Iris was doing all he could, but GGplay deflected almost everything Iris throwed at him.

I still dont know how the fuck did he defend that upper expo, iris killed his nydus and ggplay managed to cast like 5 swarms of irradiated defiler.... :O He also killed like 15-20 vessels in that game. Incredible game, probably the best zvt of all time for me, also given the fact it was OSL finals ace match and 3game comeback from ggpplay makes it one of best SC experience you can get.

i blogged about it some time ago, it still is one of the most spinechilling nerdgasmic moment in BW history for me.

http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=153906

the whole game was a masterpiece, beautifully played by both.
