You just need to get the client from a friend or torrent and right click on the replay and open with SC2.
Hey everyone!
I recently posted a thread about the SC2 VODs I've been uploading which you can find here: Platinum Division 1 Leader VODS
I'm glad some of you have enjoyed those but it seemed as though a lot of people prefer replays...
So what I did today was try to play 100 games in under 24 hours, I started at 3:09pm yesterday and finished my 100th game about 40 minutes ago, at 2:22pm
I also decided to make a small note about what the game was like so you guys can see whatever (zerg) matchup you want and I also noted which games I thought would be entertaining, a LOT of the ones not bolded are still good games worth watching but I'll let you decide what to watch via the descriptions.
When I started this I didn't use any established build orders, I just tried to react to what they were doing and eventually I obviously started doing somewhat similar things. I drone scouted every game except ZvZ or if my overlord could see their base.
My play got much sloppier in the late 80's and 90's, you can definitely believe I will never attempt to do this again.
My finishing record at platinum level was 86-14, my rating went from around 1230 to1465.
Sooo yeah.. I'm fucking exhausted but I think I can manage to do all of this now so here goes..
Here are the replays, they are numbered: [url blocked] http://www.mediafire.com/?yqmy3t4jvjt
1. ZvT Win - Scouted 2 racks, marines followed by tech lab. 2. ZvP Win - Scouted late gate, went hatch first, he responded by going 2 gate zealot 3. ZvZ Win - Boring 4. ZvZ Win - Great game, this guy shit talks TL at the beginning. 5. ZvZ Win - Average ZvZ 6. ZvP Win - Recommended game 7. ZvP Win - My average ZvP 8. ZvT Win - Scout and counter 9. ZvZ Win - ZvZ map abuse 10. ZvZ Win - Really close one, roach burrow micro(which I do a lot) 11.

ZvT Win - Weird win vs planetary fortress abuse 20. ZvZ Win - Close ZvZ because I'm bad and missed an overlord 21. ZvT Win - Great game vs CowGoMoo(someone good) 22. ZvZ Win - Complete domination of a roach rush 23. ZvT Win - Solid play vs 1 base all-in garbage 24. ZvP Win - Sloppy win vs high ranked guy 25.

ZvZ Loss - Some guy ling allins me and I'm god awful 75. ZvP Win - Easy +0 points 76. ZvZ Loss - Artosis drops knowledge on me in the form of complete rape.. I may never build another muta again in this matchup, we did the math afterwords and the 700 gas I spent towards 5 mutas is equal to 28 roaches (in gas) 77. ZvP Loss - Smuft 2 gates me in the face and I don't react to it (by saving larva for lings)even though I scout it...I took a shower after this game 78. ZvP Win - Easy win 79. ZvT Win - Easy and boring 80. ZvP Win - Surprised I pulled this one out,this guy used sentrys quite well 81.

ZvT Win - Brood lords are good 88. ZvT Win - Mutaling 89. ZvT Win - Boring 90. ZvT Win - Boring 91. ZvP Win - 6 minutes long, mass speedlings 92. ZvP Win - Gateway into forge FE on the wrong map 93. ZvP Win - +0 94. ZvP Win - Decent ZvP 95. ZvP Win - 3 minute long/rush failure 96. ZvP Loss - Terrible play on my part 97. ZvZ Win - Burrow micro is abusable in small numbers if no detection 98. ZvZ Win - Guy drone rushes me after I call him ignorant for saying only asians can play SC professionally - not worth watching 99. ZvP Win - I play pretty bad but this game gets into a really strange position.. possibly worth watching 100. ZvP Win - Mutaling
Please feel free to comment about my play if you feel inclined, I am completely open to tips, advice as long as it isn't obvious like using queen every cooldown or macroing better AND you are very confident in your advice/ know what you're talking about.

for those that don't have the game, can you do vods of the recommended games??? Thanks!
|
Time to watch 100 reps in 24 hours ^^;
|
Nerdlings everywhere salute you, good sir.
|
at first i was gonna be like "yo mang there is a replay thread for this"
but then i saw how much work you put into it and am genuinely impressed
look forward to watching your replays!
|
inReacH is a damn Hero! Can't wait to see your commentaries on some of these games.
|
wow this is true beta testing at its best :D

I'm all alone for the next 8 days as my parents are going on a trip.
Boo yeah. Me, no pants, pre-cooked food, and my cat. All there with SC2.
God I hate the student life -_-
|
absolutely fantastic!! you rule! :D
I'll definitely be watching alot of them. Individual replays are never as informative as watching 10 in a row of 1 player in the same matchup : ]
|
I like the bowl of cereal comment. What is up with the +0 points?
|
wow that's insane. i love your effort.
I'm going to watch alot of these games (but not in 1 day haha)
(your schedule was way harder than korean progamers, props to that) =)
|
Nice job man and thanks, I could tell you were serious about SC2 when I listened to your WC3FPVODS awhile back, looking forward to your other race work.
|
|
|
|
|
Beastly.
Can someone upload the games vs Idra on youtube ?
|
I didn't think that was even possible. Even if you play games continuously with the new game starting the same second the last one ended that would give you 14.4 minutes per game. I'll have to download and check your average game length :D Good job!
*edit* Your median(on replay file size) game length was 14 minutes ^^ I guess replay file size depends a lot on APM though, the average is probably closer to 10 minutes.
|
86-14 in those 100 games thats good xD
|
Respect dude! Very impressive results!
|
|
|
"-For some reason here I wrote down that I had a bowl of cereal-"
That had me laughing so damn hard. That's a great replay pack and quick analysis of each game. Great thread =)
|
|
|
This could of been me, except I didnt get into beta  Whenever I do get the beta or the final product, I will be doing a 24 hour session myself.
|
omfg. thats hell of a nice job man.
|
That is fucking insane, GJ man.
and LOL idra.
|
In the video I said I would give it away if they were giving them out which I thought they would, I can't give away what I don't have.
Husky thought they were going to give them out as well that's the main reason he went.
|
oh any games have infestor play?
also
OverSky:hf my friend IdrA:we arent friends
that made me sad =(. Is there anyone more alone in this world
ps. I hope bilzz nerfs the troll rush. Right now its too powerful doing 800 damage + 9000 vs IdrA
|
hey inreach, you playing strictly zerg right? What are your typical builds that you go for in each matchup? Or typical army compositions without knowing opponents build- other than matchup.
Also, what do you think are the best/worst maps for Z? I've been playing random and right now ZvZ is my worst matchup.
|
|
|
How good is inReach on iccup in SC1? Just to get a feel of where he's at.
|
Wow this is seriously awesome. Subscribed to your Youtube channel, you are really doing a great service.
Love how you noted the cereal, hope it was delicious.

Just C+, I never iccup'd for more than a couple of months before switching back to WC3 I feel my theory of the game is far beyond that, I always made up my own builds and did a lot of testing etc
WC3 I was rank 1 in the non-ladder last season and then did fairly poorly in the invitational ladder, again I was always on and off with the game

Well i can't wait to face you again now, also no e-pie for you or a piece of delicious e-cake.

I'm going to play zerg until they add custom hotkeys and then switch to one or the other and see how I like it..
I don't really have any typical builds, I think muta is very strong in ZvT and ZvP if you can get your natural and the 4 gases quickly and safely
I always drone scout and a never seem to have to play blind since I get a fast lair and get overlord speed right away to scout them.
I just hate kulas ravine
I'm sure you could learn a lot by just watching the ZvZ's I posted

please upload a replay pack of all the bolded games if possible! the download limit is exceeded >_<
love that u made quick notes of all the games.

+ Show Spoiler [Second game vs artosis (zvp)] +Man collosi are Nuts. You pretty much had double in food of his army and he took out a huge portion of your army. Well you did have 2-3x his income. But it seems if he had 2 more collosi hydras would have just been useless
|
Awesome job, you are crazy though!. I will definitely watch some of these replays. Also, I don't know why people give you so much shit. I always found your youtube videos entertaining and learned did learn a couple things from them. If I were a bigger noobie at war3 I would have learned a ton and that was what the videos were aimed at in a lot of ways. Keep up the good work.

Yeah at a certain point in the game zerg better be on either muta or ultra or its like zerglings vs medic/firebat

Sick stuff ... thanks =).

And now you know how it is to be a progamer.
|
Nice work :D I'm gonna sit down with a bowl of popcorn and enjoy my next 24 hours! :D

its threads like this with replay downloads that make me glad i downloaded the beta and cracked it so i could watch reps. inReach, thank you

hes actually quite a good player imo, worth watching for anyone who can't play themselves :D
|
Holy fuck, so many gosu's I never knew about until beta hit. Congrats dude thats a crazy amount of games and an even crazier record; definitely gonna watch a few of these games.
|
well when i watch streamed games i never see someone flame and then idra "retard" xD
|
Only two 24H-Runs to go!!
Thx a lot!

Keep in mind that 1 game second = 1 real second in Fast, but everyone (I believe) plays on Faster (so the games are actually shorter than the time says).

Games 28 and 29 are awesome.

41. ZvP Win - Artosis again, as we discussed he could have won if he just made more collosus instead of switching to high temps
+ Show Spoiler +I think it's a bit of a stretch to say that he would've won the game with a few more collosi. Artosis basically built 10 rocks and you killed him with 50 scissors.

Umm his storm tech and high temps were over like 1000 gas?
200 for archives 200 for storm tech and at least 4 templars
Anyways if you haven't seen a lot of hydra vs collosus, I promise you, you'll believe it when it happens. If the collosus have a meat shield it is like firebat vs ling not joking
Edit: Also it is hilarious that charge makes you storm your own zealots and they are in the same tech path, it's happened every single time my opponent went storm tech and charge
|
good job, thanks for making the effort of describing each game. currently watching #6, I'm really diggin your overlord creep usage and general playstyle so far 8)
|
very useful replays here for zerg players, thank you so much for sharing

Edit: YEP =(

Wow that's stunning. I don't know whether to be insanely impressed or insanely jealous :p I'd like to hear your otherall thoughts on the game. Is Zerg too powerful at the moment or do you think everything you did could be beaten with proper unit use?

I've never even seen a factory build... I really think it's too early to balance the game based on what the higher ranked players happen to be doing right now, the game hasn't be explored very much at all.

What's that website that let's you search for stuff on the internet again?
|
You can see replays legally. Open a replay with "open with" and select the beta2 launcher without any ilegal modification. Its works fine.
|
I counted (ugh...):
- ZvT: 27 - 4. 87,1%. Total: 31
- ZvZ: 25 - 4. 86,2%. Total: 29
- ZvP: 34 - 6. 85%. Total: 40
The totals obviously also equal the percentages of those races within your opponents due to the smart setup.  Surprisingly your ZvP winrate is the lowest. But I guess it is hard to figure out the balances from this pool because of the scaling. One can only estimate the tendencies that ZvP < 50% and ZvT > 50%.
|
what just 100..?
|
You're fucking awesome!  I obbey. And I really like this one: 28. ZvP Win - Idra calls me a retard as he feebly 1 base all-ins me... LOL
|
These are great games. Tyvm for your dedication and crazy gosu sleepless efforts. I've watched 1-18 so far. Theres some very funny moments here and there and lots of quality games.
|
Wow crazy man =)
Thanks alot, will prolly watch if I get hold of a beta key.. T_T

looks like that guy in game #74 found a counter to your roaches. he ended up having to push out slightly before he wanted since you scouted him, but it still worked.
nice job though, 86-14 is impressive. even more so w/o sleep.

No, lings don't counter roaches(it takes 50 hits for a lings to kill roaches not joking) All the things I did wrong this game made me have to take a short break and collect myself

Haha I'm interested which games you are referring to so I can take a look, I still meant to control my units correctly otherwise it's obviously not an accurate unit interaction.. Maybe I was macroing but still I'd like to know which game?

37. ZvZ Win - 6 pool is bad
Actually it wasn't bad at all! Right after you fended it off you were at 8 drones and he at 13 plus his queen was a little earlier and you made some extra lings probably out of fear. He just followed that up very badly - apparently he had never heard of roaches nor of destructible rocks before.
So I guess the opening you did in that game is actually a bit risky. Even if you didn't die immediately, that difference in eco is pretty much a made game. So maybe it will be a little like in BW with the zvz openings.

Hmm interesting, I'll go take a look at it now, thanks
Ok yeah he 7 pooled but I 15 pooled, it is probably prudent to 13pool, at least on 2 player maps
Yeah he definitely should not have lost that

Right after you fended it off you were at 8 drones and he at 13 plus his queen was a little earlier and you made some extra lings probably out of fear. He just followed that up very badly - apparently he had never heard of roaches nor of destructible rocks before. So I guess the opening you did in that game is actually a bit risky. Even if you didn't die immediately, that difference in eco is pretty much a made game. So maybe it will be a little like in BW with the zvz openings. Hmm interesting, I'll go take a look at it now, thanks Ok yeah he 7 pooled but I 15 pooled, it is probably prudent to 13pool, at least on 2 player maps Yeah he definitely should not have lost that But... But... NEXT PATCH MAN! Heh, I can't wait to run through a decent number of these. Thank you very much for providing these!
Yeah speaking of which, what's the URL where they are going to post the patch notes?

lol, that makes me wonder how many games the pros have played...
i don't know how they could even enjoy broodwar after that

What was your longest game inreach? If you played 100 in 24 hours thats over 4 games an hour, so average each less than 15mins.. I'm not sure you could do that in BW unless you zvz.

No I was relying on the fact that people usually don't expand and just do 1 attack and then lose to a counter lol
Definitely couldn't pull it off in SC1, not even close
I was thinking I might have to start 6pooling at the end if it was clos
I think longest game was like 25 minutes on faster which means like 20 minutes roughly I believe

Absolutely awesome games so far. Thank you so much for uploading these for us to drool over.
First going through all your 'bolded' games then I'll go through and watch the rest.
Game #21 vs CowGoMoo was definitely in the top 5 games I've watched! (And I've been able to watch hundreds as I can watch stream while at work hehe) - Loved how you saw his army move out kill your 6 o'clock nydus, then pop a 9 o'clock one and take out his expo.
You probably had a ton of fun doing this (well at least in the start heh) but I really thank you from all of us who are getting countless hours of fun watching it all!

WOW! That's insane you actually accomplished that goal haha. I'm glad I was able to give you one of those 14 losses ! I'm still learning so much about the game, I wish I had the dedication to play that many games in 24 hours. Hope we play more in the future.

Thanks dude I'm glad you're enjoying them

You are so cool ! Loved the replay pack, thank you so much for posting that up! And besides being insane your youtube channels really good. I hope you can record more games, and thanks !
|
wow that's amazing, i've never even heard of someone doing that in sc1 props for sharing all the reps and the vods for those of us too lazy to download sc2 or cant run it!
|
I'm only to game 30 so far but game "19 ZvT Win - Weird win vs planetary fortress abuse" was very entertaining. I can already hear the complaints once some good players start using that lol.
|
mod edit- this is not the site for illegal activity. Thank you.
|
you prob improved and had fun but errr, seems like kind of a pointless unhealthy marathon, good job still
|
THANKS a lot, this will most certainly help. just had a 5 game losing streak
|
I am loving these replays inReacH.. thanks so MUCH! People can learn a lot from these
|
Thanks a lot for posting all these! Also being able to watch all the interesting games is nice, those comments are helpful.

that actually sounds better than midterms right now.

you just beat me ZvT

First time I saw this I thought I would end up seeing some sort of troll but apparently not! GJ InReach! BTW anyone have a cracked beta(so I can watch reps) for a macintosh?

ok guys, i'll go play 1000 games of vanilla sc 1.0 and switch to icc to see how much i've improved! :D

Epic LOVED the comments :D Thankyouverymuchindeed!

Wow that is crazy, especially with the small comment for every game. Thanks a lot.
|
thanks dude!! need all the zvt help I can get
|
Good job for doing your part in raping shit talkers. ;D. 86-14 makes you feel korean!
|
|
|
you're such an amiable guy, you deserve respect for that as well as this grotesque achievement. Did you ever feel a hint of exasperated nerd rage rising?
much love (platonic).

You sir, are amazing shit, in so many ways. Just happened to be looking for zerg pro plays as well. I <3 you
Edit: And since I didn't say it explicitly, TY

That is hardly physically possible.
To play 100 games in 24 hours, they would all have to last less than 15 minutes. And you wouldn't be able to eat, drink, sleep, or do anything at all besides play SC2.
Either you're exaggerating, or you're a fat loser who needs to step outside. In any case, you get no praise from me.

Fantastic that you joined to contribute this, really.

InReach, do you feel that this marathon was worth it even though you won't get any praise from Makatak?

Showing material evidence that demonstrates a display of skill is one thing.
Boasting about how many matches you played in a given time period is a whole other thing. Talk about taking a serious toll on one's physical health. But what really sickens me is that posters are treating him like some sort of god for doing this. WTF is wrong with you people?

A "serious toll on one's physical health"? LOL. Staying up for 24 hours is serious business.

You ever hear those stories about gamers playing for 30-40+ hours straight and then collapsing and dying shortly after leaving their desk? Most of them are from Korea.
I imagine the OP being one of those statistics in the very near future.

Boasting? He posted replay's, pointed out the good games and generally contributed to the community. It's hardly boasting.
inReacH isn't retarded. I'm sure he would be able to gauge if he absolutely had to take a break for whatever reason. And clearly, since he did this a few weeks ago, he is fine.
It was his choice, his time, his health. People were thanking him for his contribution to the community, it's not like everyone in this thread is going to run out, attempt to do this and drop dead.
Calling him a fat loser in your first post indicates you're either a troll or a general prick, neither of which is likely to post anything useful.
|
30-40 hours is less than 2 days, people don't die from doing that.
|
just STFU and close this thread already!

STFU and leave the thread maybe?
|
|
|
I applaud your mental stamina inReacH! To still win that many games after 23 hours straight is incredible, especially with your play rushed by time.
|
"one or more files which are needed to play this game are not available locally. They must be downloading first."
Anyone got a solution for this?
|
I finally registered just to say thank you for posting these and even going so far as to note each game in the post.
|
Is anyone else having problems watching these replays?

Okay so after reinstalling the game, I can't watch the replays anymore. Whenever I try to run the replay, it says *TEMP* one or more files needed are missing.
help?

You don't have the gamedata for the patches in which these were played. If you want to watch them you have to torrent the first beta version.
