the bnet attack series (only a few have eng subs) are also a good way to learn some basics/see commentated, friendly/casual fpvods. It's less intense but just as impressive, with some humour/personalities mixed in.You can also see games from tasteless's days at gomtv for the averatec-intel classics tournaments (3 seasons). also if you like yellow's sc2 "code a" series check out nal_ra's oldboy series. ep 1: | ||

^ savior thread... i don't think it needs any additional words but it just feels like bw has endless potential... later made even more evident by jaedong who with ridiculous mechanics set the bar even higher.... | ||

Could this even happen in a SCII game? Could a player be this inferior? And remember, this guy actually (somehow)qualified for WCG! Watch for entertainment value only, not really the best of games... | ||

And holy bejesus is jaedong awesome. Flash videos are really cool; pretty much any video you guys hav been linked are like wtfwtfwtf awesome :D One thing if you're having difficulty understanding, you might want to check out the old GOMTV classic series. Season 1, 2, and 3. They're still on GOM's website for free GOMtv Classic and have Tasteless (and later lil'Susie and Super Daniel Man) casting which makes things easier. I know people get down on Tasteless now for not being analytical enough, but in his BW days he was definitely both funny and analytical and pretty good at explaining things. The other nice thing is you can see them in order and kind of get a feel for how the entire season progressed or else just watch the most viewed ones which are generally the final matches. One thing that really helps in your appreciation for the game is when you go out and try the strategies and tactics the pro's are doing and then you find out just how hard it is to do what they do. | ||

CARRIER!!!!! !??!?!?!?!?!?! and whenever i think of flash, my favorite player <3, this game at around from the 23-24 minute mark, the scene where the two MnM armies converge, there is rarely a moment in bw progaming where i see a scene as menacing as this Flash vs Tybe-B 2009 OSL | ||

Games like this are why I love brood war highlights if you don't want to watch the whole thing defense at 10:00 harass and counter at 18:30 Battle at 26:00 with simultaneous storm drop Battle at 28:20 & incredible defense of 6:00 base soon afterwards plus the iconic image of jaedong dripping sweat after the game Holy crap. Thanks for linking that game, I can't believe I'd never seen it before. It was absolutely fucking amazing. | ||

Tell me why this game you all love is so amazing, teach me why flash/bisu/jaedong/boxer were all so amazing. . Just play and watch the game. If you manage to get somewhat good at the game, you will understand why it's so awesome. It's what I did. I used to prefer other RTS games over StarCraft, but then I actually learned about it I realized that it's way better than any other RTS game. (B rank on iCCup is where I realized) I seriosuly recommend watching OSL, MSL, and proleague finals. The atmosphere is pretty amazing. | ||

Similarly, as I'm watching these, I understand where SC2 comes from and why a lot of things that "are cool" are cool. I'm watching my history here :D | ||

I wasn't claiming it was dead, sorry I understand that my language reflects that, but I'm well aware that this is something that is still alive and well. Will the Proleague by on the "on air" side bar of TL? If so, I really want to watch it, or if not, where can I find it/read info about it? (English preferably) | ||
