This is game was the first I ever watched and this game got me into starcaft as more than just another RTS. Probably the most influential video I've ever seen
It was this game, if I remember correctly it was White-Ra vs Maka on the Europe vs Asia series. Asia went 7-0 in the first matches and Europe had a great weekend getting back to 8-3, I think it was the last game that weekend. I'll try to find a link.
Anyways, it was a long macro game, with EMP's, storms, templar-drops on that awful map back from the Beta (incineration zone).

Are both great games imho.. But I've got to say again, Darkforce vs BratOK game is the most epic I've seen.
The Jinro Socke game is the one game that came to mind immediately when i saw this. That game was ridiculous and keep in mind this game happened when desert oasis had been removed from the map pool for a month or two.
Hmm... I really dislike your Idra MVP choice under reason why to watch you should put : mvp refuses to gg... it's great game but not epic Idra has so many better games... for instance Idra v MVP on steppes of war (gsl 3 ro32)
Bomber was choking so hard and everything was going wrong for him. He was so far behind. Then he realizes how far he is and pushes, creates a base trade situation and ends up beating MMA.
Jinro vs Socke, Jinro vs Hyperdub. Maybe remove Machine vs KiwiKaki because it is more of shockvalue than an actual good game IMO. When I watch it I just think of landing tanks on lost temple/jungleStory BW cliffs, except not quite as groundbreaking ;p.

I had the exact same thing to say. It was one of the first SC2 games I saw, and it got me hooked right away.
TLO was using Nukes more effectively during the Beta than anyone else has since. Whenever I think TLO, I think about him attacking Nazgul's 4th in that game, and then nuking between his forces and Nazgul's just to buy time to finish off the nexus. It's easily my favorite game from the Beta, and one of the best overall.
