It seems a thread like this one wasn't posted before, after researching, so... I hope it wasn't posted before !
BIGGEST MISTAKES BY PROGAMERS IN SC2 HISTORY
The goal of this thread is to make a compilation of all the huge mistakes... those mistakes that changed an entire game, and all done by progamers. Yes, that kind of mistakes can happen to everyone, especially the greatest...
Macro errors, micro errors, miss-clicks... everything is accepted !
Enjoy !

Here's the one I remember ! I will sometimes add a few more to this first post, like the best...
Seriously... how is this possible? Building two bunkers at the WRONG side because he didn't see the hatch... really hilarous, especially Zerator's laugh!
MKP attempts to nuke drewbie's army. Drewbie dodged it. MKP didn't cancel it... and his entire army was on the red small point of the nuke at the wrong moment
Everyone knows what happened... MMA destroyed his own CC, thiking he was attacking the rock. He was really behind, but then, Idra does another big mistake... what about a ragequit ?
ForGG, considering that there were too many banelings, lifted off his army into his medivacs. He attempted to go to Stephano's main, but mines decided to shot at this moment. If ForGG went back instead of going in that direction, he wouldn't have lost that much I think...
The end of a base race against those two korean players. Rain has enough to build another pylon and has safe probes... but it seems probes were sleeping... or Rain himself???
He knew there was mutalisks waiting for him (viking scout) but he decided to go for a 3 medivacs drop and get completly intercepted... I repeat: HE KNEW THERE WAS MUTALISKS THERE
Jaedong attempting to bust First's third base. First micro'd pretty well with his stalkers when suddenly... make sure you know how to blink BACK, next time k?
There was something similar to this not long ago but it wasn't biggest goofs or mistakes, maybe something like "most memorable", except that can't have been it, because there were certainly a lot of things plenty of people hadn't seen. I'll have a look and link it if I find it, but I feel like these should just go in that thread if it's something like "most unusual/amazing/funny/cool games in SC2 history", because although you could still create another index, there may well be a lot of doubling up.
EDIT: OK so for one thing, on the first page of SC2 General, we have this which isn't so different in topic at least...
Wasn't there an MLG game where MarineKing nuked his own army and proceeded to lose against Drewbie? Granted it was a groupstage game (at least I think so) but still

Yeah, it was on Shattered Temple, I forget which MLG though.

I think Zelniq was the one who did that, old LG player if im not mistaken??
