Hate the music and Idra leaving vs MMA is not Pimpest play, also there are so many good ones left out.
Some good, a lot of nostalgia, watched it till end.

Not a big fan of the editing. Effects are very rarely ever needed in game video editing, especially since the small details are the main attraction of these clips.

Still, thanks for the effort in putting these clips together. Next time use your own eye when you're editing clips, sit down and judge whether or not what you're trying to show off is enhanced or distracted by the effects you've chosen.

too dark. Some of the plays were pretty standard. BUt you missed probably the best play of the year. Nerchio Vs. Yonghwa Homestory Cup 5. Game 5 ( I believe) He defened his hatchery against DT's wtih drones. And didn't have detection yet. Crazy hatchery block.

when he did that. you knew Nerchio was just on a different level than younghwa. (at least back then)

Certainly a call back to the old pimpest plays. It felt even a bit nostalgic since I've seen 95% of the clips live unlike the brood war ones. (I still watch those too.)

A lot of people are pointing out the darkness filter, which I agree isn't really needed. Music choice, you aren't always going to win and I feel that type of metal fits with the "pimpest plays" theme. The text was kinda meh, but the transitions were pretty good. You can always redo it if you feel the need to

ok for all the germans the dailymotion-version is out now. unfortually the quality is atm at 360p max. dunno maybe it will get better with the time (maybe they need some time to work with the video), i dont have much experience with dailymotion though. You can find it here: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xyu18c_starcraft-2-pimpest-plays-2010-2011-2012_videogames#.UWL1XsqbduQ

About the Dark Templer scene (Nerchio vs YoungHwa): I planed to put this one in too and as you can see its in the replaypack i uploaded, but at the end i totally forgot that game - i could beat myself for that -.- >.<



AGAIN: Thanks for all the good and bad feedback, it really helps me alot!

it was a great video, but it was so dark that it was pretty hard to watch.

This is cool. I really love the ambition and the general idea. But the ambition is your downfall though.
I believe you had more focus on making the video awesome with effects rather than content. Which is missing the point. But dont get me wrong, I am not pooping on your production, I am trying to give you tips for the future!

Things to think about next time (because I really hope you keep this up, the idea is awesome, but you need to polish it):

1: Too much material to cover: 3 years is waaaaay to much material to cover in one video, you should have done one for each year at tops. You missed some of the pimpest plays over the years (in my oppinion ofcourse, but I believe may would agree).
2: Keep awesome looking effects where they belong: Some effects (and screen cutouts), even though they are beautiful, it makes it hard to appreciate the pimpness of the plays at almost every occation in the video. Place video effects and unrelated awesomness in between the clips that show pimpness. That way the effects are more lovable and the pimpest plays more lovable.
3: Keep it to the original speed: It's hard to understand what happens when you speed up the gamespeed in a video, and again, it's hard to appreciate the pimpness unless you relive the play at the original speed.
4: Music sync: Who doesn't love music sync! It's awesome! You have done that really well in this video, but again, keep it where it belongs. Do not edit the actual video to match the sound by cutting out important stuff, speeding the clip or slowing the clip. You gotta match it by using longer/shorter clips (where it is possible, so you don't cut out important scenes) or do not audio-sync at all. Priority number one must always be the pimpest play!

All this comes from me with good intent and I really hope you can take it constructivly. I love this kind of videos and I really hope you dig deeper into this and perfect your already good skills!

Anyone remember the game on cloud kingdom where a top korean (terran) kept rebuilding a supply depot everytime it went down to rewall at the 3rd base location ?

that was really epic cant remember who it was, but i think it was prolly 2-3month ago.

Glad I could help!

I also forgot to mention cropping. Dont do it! Mini-map is a vital part in understanding what happens in the game, even if there's a crazy ass micro bit that's going on, because questions always arise "is it a base-race? is it 5? 10? or even 25minutes into the game?" etc.

This weird darkness makes it very unpleasant to watch the video. Also I think most of the stuff is already in other videos, not very original. Other than that, average video I guess.

don't label the play with what happens.

You don't see the brood war ones say "good marine control". You don't see soccer (aka football) highlight videos label plays. You don't see NBA basketball best plays label stuff. *edit: this is a little unfair, some of the brood war pimpest plays give names. But try to be a little better than "biggest air battle" or overuse of "epic". A lot of the brood war videos that name stuff go for like "boxer's ninja proxy" or "willpower hold lurkers" or something to that end).

basically don't label the play or "huge air battle", just label the game ("X vs Y 2011"). Keep it as simple as possible. The play is supposed to speak for itself

stopped watching at idra moment because you can't have pimp plays mixed with silly moments or stupid moments (of which there were ones earlier in the video)

I think it's bad to be honest, independent of issues with darkness. Poor selection and against the spirit of pimpest play/highlight videos.
