I thought I would know so many of these games, but unfortunately, just saying "players X and Y gave us an incredible fight!" is not enough most of the time (for me to remember that particular game) Apart from that, yes, Gumiho vs Losira is the best series I have ever seen. | ||

Not only was it a sick back and forth game with storms everywhere, but I saw it as the point where PartinG truly began to establish himself as a top-tier protoss what with Jjakji being a recent champ and having one of the best TvPs out there at the time. | ||

It wasn't just that Nestea introduced the spinecrawler rush. It was that the timing he hit was so perfect and developed with previous knowledge about Anypro on that specific map. On top of that, the timing of the Hydras popping out as the voidray reaches his base and the follow up of taking down the expansion a second time with hydras who at the time were the subject of so much hate. That game was the moment I realised I would watch eSports forever. That wasn't 2012 though  | ||

I know ZvZ isn't a popular matchup, but I think NesTea vs DRG and Life vs DRG at the Iron Squid 2 were both awesome games too. NesTea vs DRG had NesTea doing these drastic changes in playstyles and unit compositions, and DRG either got thrown too far off balance from them or persevered through them. The last 2 games between Life and DRG had a queen being killed by 2 lings in a straight up fight and an all in being held off, which in itself isn't remarkable, but the fact that the spawning pool for Life finished halfway though the battle was pretty inspiring to watch as a zerg. Edit: Game 2 of jjakji vs MMA for the IPL... um... either 4 or 5? qualifier was amazing too. | ||

But "LG-IMMvp vs StarTale_Squirtle" is in my mind one of the worst games I've ever seen. Bunkerish verging on showoffish play by MVP being counterd by the most deeply broken ( and thankfully removed ) mechanic in the game. Deplorable game, can't imagine why anyone would think it was bearable let alone good. | ||
