"Morrow's grand scheme on Steppes of War"
Morrow(Z) vs Strelok(T)
TL Open Semi Finals
Game 2
Steppes of War

Morrow builds drones and does the extractor trick to get 12/10 drones and attacks, and takes the game. Strelok "lol"s and types out.

Patience Patience and more patience...
MouzNaama(T) vs MouzMana(P)
DreamHack SteelSeries
Game 3
Xel'Naga Caverns

http://day9tv.blip.tv/file/4444658/

Mana is under constant contain by Naama's siege tanks, vikings and bio force both at his first expansion and then at his gold, but Mana doesn't try to break Naama's contain until just the right time.
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.

"A Fruit Sandwhich"
NEXLiveForever (T) vs TSL_FruitDealer (Z)
Set 2
Scrap Station
GSL1

NEXLiveForever begins to push through the destructible rocks while sniping FruitDealer's hatch at the gold. FruitDealer then flanks NEXLiveForever's army causing him to retreat back across the maps narrow bridge. FruitDealer chases NEXLiveForever across the gap and completely obliterates the Terran army prompting both Tasteless and Artosis to explain, "OH MY GOD" simultaneously.

Fairly certain the OP refers to the lack of BW pimpest plays for 2010?

"Heroic Defense"
sSKS (P) vs NEXFreeSaGa (P)
GSL Season 1 Ro32
Game 3
Metalopolis

FreeSaGa proxies 2 gates. sSKS scouts the wrong way, while FreeSaGa's gates are basically halfway to his base. FreeSaGa then fakes cannon rush, making sSKS move probes off mining. Zealots enter sSKS' base, but he manages to sneak off a zealot into FreeSaGa's base, while still defending the two proxy gate rush.


Wish I could link to the actual game, coz it's AWESOME and EPIC, but I'm not sure if it's posted somewhere. If you have GSL Season 1 ticket, make sure you watch it !

First off, thank you all so much for being so supportive so quickly, the list is expanding like mad!

The OP links to the foxer/marineking on shakuras, but says it is on Xelnaga Caverns.

Thanks for pointing that out! i get those maps confused all the time, the video is correct, the name is not - changed now!

Edit: Nvm, someone else said it.

Definitely a good idea. I think there is already a pimpest plays for sc2 being put together by someone on Youtube, with the first one already released. Can't find it, though.

I've seen a pimpest plays made for the BETA of starcraft2, but none for the final release from tournament games.

And to anyone who wants to help this project, read through all the poorly formatted submissions, and try to find the games and correctly format them in a post - with quote references so i know which ones have been updated - thanks all! i'll update the OP with new plays tonight.

This has the whole series. Game 2 has the pimpest moment for sure.

Do you plan to make a video like the original pimpestplays or will you just mention which plays got first and link to each one individually (aka - no video, just a collection of links)?

I'm also not sure if it's ok to link to "mirrored" (aka illegal mirrored) GSL matches.
Therefore GSL link from me

I think you should include something from the game on Lost Temple between NaDa and Tester.
I'd suggest this attack:

It might not be the "best" attack in the game, but it sure looks cool! ^^

Also, I think this nuke from the Dreamhack finals should be in there too:


Btw, great initiative!

"Nuclear Launch de. . . nvm"
LiquidTLO (T) vs oGsHyperdub (T)
GSL Season 1, Ro32
Game 1
Xel'naga Caverns

TLO nukes Hyperdub's tank line guarding the left expo, then cancels as soon as tanks unsiege, runs up and kills them.

Same game, while he's pushing Hyperdub's expo on the right side, he nukes the attack path (maybe canceled this one too?) Hyperdub's army is coming from so he has to take the long way around, buying himself enough time to take out the expo.

Same game again, though this is mostly luck. TLO fires a defensive nuke that manages to snipe most of Hyperdub's vikings as they fly by.

Nice thread! I was thinking of making a similar "Sc2 Game of the year" thread earlier but I just couldnt accumilate a good portion of replays/VODs to do it. This idea is much cooler

Oh and something that hasnt been suggested:
"Ultralisk Suprise!"
Clide vs Leenock
Set 3
Shakuras Plateau
GSL
http://www.gomtv.net/2010gslopens3/vod/1372

Pimpest game of GSL so far, with basicly all units involved for the zerg and with a beautiful tech-switch from Brood lords to ultras when the game seemed to be lost and expansions going on everywhere.

Btw, are there any 2009 BW highlights? Just googled it but it only came up wtih the ones from 2010 . 2010 highlights really were just making me reminisce on how I would stay up late at night to watch these amazing moments

I like the HD/Husky cast for this game because they DON'T catch everything that happens. Day[9] is on the ball with everything in this game. He catches everything being built and pretty much every minute strategic implication of each little thing.

HD/Husky miss a few things. Their casts reflects more of what I believe a general audience member's reaction to that game would be. "Oh he's so screwed... why is he building that... where is he going... well everything is dead now... wait a minute... OH MY..."

Contrast that to Day[9] "Oh this move is brilliant because XYZ is going to happen. It appears bad but he'll be alright" -- and he's right and that does happen. I would prefer having Day[9] breaking it down and letting me know what's up in a game. But for "Pimpest Moments" nothing compares to HD/Husky's "Shame, that only works if he has... AND HE DOES HAVE THAT OMG"

you've just exposed the last place one could watch gls vods illegally (the last great den of the highwaymen delivering the underpriviledged masses from the evils of pretend free streams) in the name of sc2 addiction, i got mixed feelings about that

as for the pimpest play, i'd have to vote on tlo's nuke defense of his marine/tank army while taking out hyperdub's 3 o'clock expo (from the game mentioned above) for first spot, that was some pimp s***. although, by tomorrow morning i'll probably remember some more, we'll see then

edit: oh yes, how could i forget socke's storms totally annihilating drewbie's army of banshees + vikings and then magically whipping out a mothership at mlg raleigh game 3 on lost temple, that was even more pimp than tlo's nukes

Jinro vs Socke at MLG comes to mind. Can't think of any particular moment in the game that would be nice for a 10-20 sec video cut though.

MorroWs 12 drone rush should at least be in there for the comedy too
