bad replay through and through. stupid cheese then bad decision making. and using buildings to stop units from passing is supposed to be pimp? maybe a decade ago...

If that's not pimp...then nothing on the face of the earth is, aside from Boxer of course. He's always pimp. That was the most outrageous and completely retarded playing I have ever seen. Truly, that is a magnificent piece of playing.

I liked the end. I thought it was fairly pimp. Just because the beginning and middle weren't good doesn't make the end not-pimp.

I agree, toss made lots of mistakes and his micro was horrendous. terran's rack rush could have been better if he left a couple behide to continue mining but didn't. again toss made many mistakes...

and just because the ending was interesting doesn't mean it will qualify for PP.

but overall still fun replay

The toss was BAD, but the play was pretty cool.

i don't think it is pimp material mainly because there has already been a very similar situation, were P and T both proxy and in the end battle, a probe gets trapped with only 1 barrack (just like the terran did to be able to mine the first time). So it isn't anything new.
Still, entertaining to watch, though it was painful to watch how the P responded to the rush >.<

I don't necessarily agree it's Pimpest Plays material. Maybe 4 years ago, but not now. A lot of what happens now is based off of doing pimp things in situations that they would be highlighted - on TV, in the middle of a major match, etc.

Are you saying PP can only be stuff from professional matches?

No, I'm not saying that, but someone in this topic said that it was a pubbie game, which has a 0.00000000000001% chance of getting on the Pimpest Plays. Even Pimpest Plays that aren't of progamers are of top-level foreigners.

Pubbies on Battle.Net won't cut it.

pretty much, yeah.

its basically like:

1. some dude playing basketball on a playground vs his friends making a full court shot
vs.
2. an nba player doing a less impressive feat but in the NBA playoffs

one is a pimpest play nominee and one is not. competition and context make nominees. this would be much more arguable if it was like during the incontrol vs idra liquibition or even better some tournament. the relative skill of the players to the viewers makes a huge fucking difference.

I think this is good enough for PP07 ^_^

Reminds me of that old Boxer game (forget where) but he lands a Barracks and positions it so that a Marine he built is covered by minerals at the top and the right, the Barracks to the left, and the bottom of the map. So sexy~


old game vs giyom

I thought Nal_rA got a lone probe out of a manner pylon.

What did he do again?
