Hi all,

First of all let me introduce ourselves, we are TheMista and Antisocial from team gr8.
We are from Greece, and for the past 1-2 months we have been playing 2vs2,
at first casually, but later we decided we enjoyed it enough to try and take it a bit more seriously.
We decided to share a replay pack so more people will see how fun and dynamic 2vs2 can be
and *hopefully* we'll see some more interest from tournament organizers in the future for this bracket.

We try to play a reactive playstyle depending always on what we scout, due to our setup mostly (we can't be aggressive vs the TZ teams if they stay on 1 base for example)
so you'll see all sort of strategies employed from 4g/3rax all-ins to hardcore macro 6base carrier/mech 200/200 army onslaughts.

We are currently the #1 ranked Terran/Protoss team according to sc2ranks.com,
have participated in three 2vs2 cups (4PL.de) on EU server in which we have earned the 1st place twice.

Feel free to add us if you want to discuss or play some 2vs2
EU greatMista.105 (aka Teezeee)
EU greatAnti.805

If we see interest from people in 2vs2 we will gladly start streaming.

TP is a very powerful and interesting team combination. I really want to play TP but unfortunately I play Z so I can't at a high level. I feel that TP can be just as aggressive as ZT and just as defensive as TT. The best of both worlds really.

This is awesome, I don't play 2v2 but there's no replays out there for those who do. I'm sure someone will benefit greatly from this.

Best team in 2v2 in the world, word.

Thanks for uploading, these are really great replays of some well executed reactive style in 2v2! Your opening is great in how diverse it can be, from completely defensive to incredibly greedy - none of this "always all-in" or cheese nonsense that most 2v2 threads are plagued with. It's also nice to see some 2v2 games where people competently take expos at reasonable times.

the 4th game phoenix/carrier/mothership with marine/tank was pretty entertaining and showed some character

Thanks for the positive feedback, glad some people enjoyed them, we'll add some more reps as time goes on, working on a new timing push nowadays

Cool, great post.

I'm a big 2v2 fan and think it could have as much depth (perhaps in different ways) as 1v1 if explored properly with the right maps.
