Stumbled onto this video early on and thought I would share. The videos captures all of the highlights of 2017 and is reminiscent of all those old highlight videos from the pro days. Enjoy!

Not ashamed to admit that I remember watching most of these games either live on stream or on YouTube the very next day. Even got to see Bisu's incredible goon bust vs. sSak LIVE at the Afreeca studio

Also, that transition from OG graphics to Remastered just makes me appreciate Blizzard more for all the work they put into this classic game.

Overall, just very happy that Broodwar is still alive and bringing us excitement week after week. Here's to 2018!

Also, hi Engdrew! I saw you were a groomsman for Zhu's wedding, great photos.

Awesome highlight reel! I mean sure, I would've preferred a more "KeSpa- Style"- Soundtrack rather than this stereotypical highlight reel one, but still really awesome to see all these great plays once again

Ayy! What's up that wedding was so much fun

Someone educate me! I'm not sure which tournaments weren't allowed to be held. I followed the BW scene from OSL/MSL/SPL days -> SSL, ASL days so if you're referring to events outside of Korea I may not be as informed.

And Stork is sick good!!

Thats because beating flash is a highlight for anyone’s career. How many people get to put “defeated God” on their resumes?

Music is ok, would have prefered the more classic BW music used in the Kespa days like Red Jumpsuit Apparatus but you can’t have everything. Let’s just be thankful we got a great highlights video!

Without a doubt Flash vs Hero on Gladiator was one of the best games of the year, if not the best.

The crazy thing for me is how crazy different it is watching BW in proper SD again compared to Remastered, it looks so similar yet so different. It's kinda cool.

Also glad they got the FBH dance in at the end <3

NCS has decent music if you dig far enough.





As a fellow content creator, I know the pain of having to skip over awesome, well known music so that you can monetize it. At least be happy it's not the music that YouTube provides.

Same for me! Would have found nightwish much later if it wasn't for the vid. Also, pp 03 was the pimpest of them all. Each move is so iconic, it's like watching elvis dance.

The video (if done well) is supposed to be synced to the music. Can't really have that then, can you?
I miss the times where you had to download these kind of videos to watch them, at least you'd get good music back then. The video itself was pretty fun to watch, what a great year of BW it has been. I gotta get an appointment to get rid of that ear cancer though.

ear cancer ? common dude,this is not my favorite music style but i dont think is bad to the point of calling it ear cancer,but is your opinion and your taste,for me the most important part was the BW and the koreans casters screaming.

I still can't listen to Sacrament of Wilderness and not continue with "sucker loving" in my mind There simply wasn't anyone like dyo. Spitfire got close, but still!

Loved these highlights of 2017, though! And frankly, I quite like that kind of music. Can't please 'em all - great action nonetheless :D
It's ok. I still love you <3

For these kind of videos? Because there is way too much amazing music out there to pick one favorite style. There is great music in pretty much every single genre tbh.
Anyway, I personally really like the stuff that OGN/MBC used during the second half of professional Brood War for videos. I used to watch a lot of frag movies/montages from various fps games and most of them used the same music. Nowadays, all you get is generic electronic music (there is great electronic music out there btw, but most of it isn't free to use) due to youtube being what it is. That is also why I lost interest in said videos once they began being youtube only instead of downloads. I really think you should be able to use whatever you want as long as you don't monetise it. No one is gonna rip a song with Koreans screaming over it.

And let me say it again: I really liked the video overall. It was a fantastic year for BW and this video reminded me of a lot of epic moments. It's just the music that is really killing these kind of videos for me.

I liked the music too. I normally listen to symphonic black metal and to classical music.
But the music in the video kinda fits the content and goes overall well with it. Is even relaxing to some extent.
And every other highlight video has that rock/metal music anyway, so something different is nice too.

For the record, I didn't make this video, just shared it. Saw some folks crediting me with the work so just wanted to clarify that. On another note, the channel has 2016 highlights and Flash, Bisu, JD etc... fpv highlights too as well as different ASL seasons and other older players' highlights so if you're someone who likes these kind of videos, give them a watch! ^^
