Hmm, maybe Backho's zizi yo ? Certainly has had an influence up to now.

And what game did SK Terran gain prominence? I know Nada was considered basically unbeatable TvZ for a while, but soulkey had to popularize that style first.

Racenilatr that is true, modern Starcraft evolved from all those games. But their are pinnacle moments in starcraft in which a certain strategy is honed to such perfection, and executed so well, it influence other programmers to include their type of strategies into their game.

It was the SK Terrans who revolutionized mech against the zerg. Everyone knows that mech is a very slow, but sure way way of winning a game. The main problem with mech though it's inability to deal with a huge macro style zerg due to its low mobility (seen in GGPlay vs Flash Set 1 Incruit OSL). The SK Terrans decided to deal with problem the terran mech build must use mobility. What the SK Terrans came up was the Dropship/Vulture to give mobility to mech, and the transition to Goliaths/Valkyries against mutas. So two revolutions came out of the now called "Fantasy Build", the mobility of mech, and the proper use of Valkyries.

Not a complaint, but wanted to point out that this paragraph is kind of confusing; there is a big difference between "SK Terran" and "SKT Terran."

Would Jaedong's 2hatch muta vs Sea on python count?

It really set the standard for mutalisks harass and aided in the transition from sAviOr's passive usage to the now common aggressive play.

edit: Game starts at 16:55

Should be Jaedong vs Flash Gom Season 1 finals instead imo.

After that, there was a huge shift in zvt from 3hat to 2hat.

OK Sk Terran is now up. :D Sorry couldn't find the original Soul Key Videos. D:

Also, the 2 muta control groups was a fun game to watch. But, i think only jaedong is the only zerg who can employ it right.

hmm how about when terran started going mech (vulture & wraith/valk) against zerg? not sure what game that was.

Fantasy vs GGPlay? But that build didn't have wraiths, I think Leta made that popular.

Boxer vs Grrr ~ 1999.

Grrr as Z , Boxer 3 fact 1 base mech WITH FIREBATS.

REVOLUTIONARY!

If you remember that replay you're oldschool.

It's kinda hard to remember a replay of a game played 2years before reps were implemented in the game.

Nice!

Oh so clever ...."vod" then.

Although since we're being tight ass sticklers of word choice.

A replay would technically be any reshowing of a game...but ok.

And I could be wrong about the date of the game.
