Thanks for posting this Welmu.

However, this really wasn't much of a good replaypack man. I'm sure you could play for like a week and organize a proper pack with just decent games.

This pack had like 2-3 decent/good games with the rest just being poor 4 gate / 6 pool games and whatnot.

Interesting 15 nexus... Though, it didn't seem to work out too well most of the time.

"Speed Voidrays" Hmmm those words gave me the chills, even though I'm a Zerg player.

I've looked at the first couple of replays. I was really looking forward to such high level play (I'm a lowly 1600 Protoss myself...), I am kind of disappointed though. I thought 4-gate played a smaller role in 2k+ games, but loved the Prism play on Temple. Hope the rest of the games prove more interesting.

Thank for the replaypack. I enjoyed it, but thought there were a bit too many 4 gate / 6 pool games

Would like to see more "standard" midgame to lategame if youre making another

the game agaisnt chills on meta was sweet .
using drops + moma ship (0.o) to break contain was very beautifull to see and quite original .

also VW's against terran mech (i think also against chills) was pretty sweet and nothing i saw too often . so thank you for those !
hope to see more

There is one game vs Chill that is really superb - the one with the mothership - The Terran does this horrible camp outside his base at 7:30 with two tanks two marauders, two marines and a viking and I couldn't see any way to get out of it easily! Really worth a watch. WP

The smac talk is so funny, that first guy who six pools and then you beat on Xel Naga Caverns is such a prick.

Great replays, thanks for the thread. I hadn't seen mass VR used like that before, very cool.

I had a couple questions if you have the time --
Do you ever have a follow up in your 4gate doesn't kill him?

Also, is there any map where you use another FE besides 15 nexus v Z?

Thanks!

I just made the mistake of reading pages 2-5 of this thread... please ignore the fools who are criticizing this replay pack in there.

Including games where you get 6pooled, or 4gate, or lose/get roflstomped (blind VR rush vs mass marine was HILARIOUS) are incredibly useful to those of us trying to learn the game.

First, it demonstrates the variety of builds at high level play.
Second, it lets users who are paying attention see how to adjust play based on map/opponents
Third, it shows how important scouting can be.

On the scouting note - I know I'm completely unqualified to give advice as a low diamond player myself, but I would recommend in PvT that you poke with your first 2stalker 1Zealot force. You already chronoboost it out so it will never be in danger of facing a superior enemy force and dying unnecessarily, and it allows you to do a little damage to overly greedy terrans while also getting some really amazing scouting info in that dead couple minutes before your first obs gets to their base. The only reason I can see not to poke with that force is fear of delayed reapers, but if I am wrong please correct me.

You watch the replays "backwards". They are sorted by date and time so the latest game is in the top of the list.
So first he won on Caverns and then he got 6pooled. Those were the two last games in the pack.
