Tasteless's observing season 1 is almost comical. The game between idra and jitaehoonzenith where tasteless is obsing the hole behind the natural for at least 30 seconds...... XD
That game was actually a mistake, where they were showing Artosis's computer instead of Tasteless's. But yeah, overall his observing is pretty lolworthy so far.
I vow that I will watch all of Season 1. So far so good!

lets all tweet at artosis about how awesome he was when he played zerg in the GSL!!!

HAHAHA just gone back to watch some season 1 for nostalgia. The play is prett bad, but its nothing compared to the maps.
Scrap station, Blistering Sands, Lost temple (those cliffs man), Desert Oasis, Steppes of war, etc.
What were we thinking back then? "we need better strats and better maps" comes to mind 
Back then there was also the whole "all the maps should be on the ladder so those without teams can be on an even playing field" argument. There was also the hope that Blizzard would release good maps eventually, and only when that didn't happen did GSL come out with their own maps.

I am going to watch all of these. Just for nostalgia, and to feel like I know something they don't.
|
fuck so good watching this old shit. SC2 had real character back then. Also, lets get desert oasis back, but remove mutalisks for that map only.

Mr.Chae, you are so awesome.
<3 My hero.

Haha I've been going through Season 1. I've fairly sure even my horrible abilities could beat half of these players. The only ones who've stood out so far are Clide and Fruitdealer, who actually macro (They actually maxed out. I don't think there has been more than a couple games with a player getting maxed). Every Terran just abuses reapers. There's no Zergs after RO32 other than Fruitdealer, and all the Protoss either warpgate all-in, or do risky expands build that would die to a modern 2rax. Also, I forgot just how busted original Lost Temple was. Holy crap, Terran basically got free wins in close positions or if they dropped tanks.
The Fruitdealer game Artosis claimed to be the greatest SC2 game he'd seen in the semi-finals is like an average Platinum TvZ nowadays.
Edit: Oh, season 3 is included. Everyone go watch Jinro! One of the only macro Terrans at the time and he dominated. That was my first GSL and it will always be my favourite.
Starting Season 2 after I just finished season 1. Immediately noticed Jungle Basin. That map makes me sad.

God dang, just started watching the games again. Just weird to see...
Even the worker splits suck bad.
But... I'm loving every second of it. It really feels so... nostalgic. haha. But you can feel the players actually getting better so fast. and things changing from game to game. Things change these days too, but not as fast as back then.

Damn, watching these really makes you think and appreciate all of this

Watching these games make me wonder what would happen if you sent Mvp back in time and he entered in GSL... I don't think he would drop a single game.
edit: lol I just watched NesTea do a 1base baneling bust, what is happening
|
This is awesome!! Gonna go watch Idra and few others vods.
|
Great! Ad revenues start to kick in I am very pleased with this, hope it continues... It should be free.....

Haha, I know what you mean. Really, when you go back and watch the earliest stages of any competitive game, it's all so bad relative to the modern standards that you could send back a lot of average players in a time machine and they be factors. Still, seeing the first marine splits, seeing fruitdealer rip face, seeing Boxer vs Nada, it's all worth the rest of the play being straight up bad.

thank god i can now watch the taej vs leeknock games
|
Go watch MKP (BoxeR aka FoxeR) vs Kryx game 1 and 5 and MKP vs Nestea at Season 2 if you're terran or zerg!
