I remember a while back, I stumbled across a game where early on the Protoss player lost almost every probe and managed to hold back the Terran marine onslaught with a single Dragoon, and had a Shield Battery to boot. In the end he pumped out another Dragoon, and the Terran gg'd.

Is there any other games that revolved around - or in the end - had only a few units microing against eachother?

Also, if someone remembers that game or can tell me what it is I will be forever grateful (:

That BoxeR vs YellOw game on Nostalgia was pretty damn scrappy. It was in the finals of a tournament, I think.

Edit: Found it

what is a scrappy game?

I feel like there was one on Bloody Ridge PvP that involved something like only a few dragoons and a dark templar and a cannon or two...
And there was that one game where one guy had like 10 zealots and 2 cannons and one guy had 2 dts and both only had like 2-3 buildings left...
Idr the games but if anyone remembers these... .-.

By "scrappy" I think you can also mean a low econ game. My favorite was a foreigner match with White-Ra vs. a smurf (I'm pretty sure it was F91)

I vaguely remember a PvP on Bloody Ridge that involved dts that was super close and low econ but no idea who the players were.

White-Ra is the P in the game

The best guess for the Zerg is probably F91 going by this thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=89491

I think you're thinking about Stats vs Flying. I remember BisuDagger casting a game like that where the game ended with Flying's probes killing Stats' last pylon, and Stats couldn't do anything about it since his Dragoons were trapped by a Dark Templar. Can't find the VOD on Youtube though.

@GTR yeah that one is amazing.
Does anyone remember who I think it was Stork faced off on a huge space map and it ended up with the Zerg player guarding an island with Sunkens and Spores and everything and Stork did a huge recall or drops and won the game? Maybe it wasnt Stork...
