OK this is what I have right now for 2011 GSTL March [all vods in English]: - Ro8 (oGs vs SlayerS) - Games 1-4 & 6 (games 5 & 7 missing) - Ro4 (SlayerS vs StarTale) - Games 1-3 (games 4-6 missing) - Finals - All 9 vods As for the 2011 World Championships it's a mish-mash and it would take some serious going through. I'd really like to get 2011 GSTL March complete at least, but it's imperative that it's all in English. Chinese-language cast isn't useful for what I'm trying to accomplish. | ||

All right sorry for the false hope I just have chinese for what you're missing | ||

Definitely 2011, I thought I should have 2012 as well but I couldn't find it in my files for some reason, must be stored somewhere else. Edit: I think there miiight not have been a replaypack for the 2012 edition? Not 100% sure. A lot of old replays are still available on https://www.gamereplays.org/starcraft2 | ||

I tried uploading the missing 2011 GSL & GSTL vods to Youtube last summer, and I was smacked down with two copyright violations. Not for content mind you, and not because I was flagged by GOMTV. But because I was flagged for MUSIC violations for the 3rd party music played by GOM during the streams! So was the end of that for now, and although I haven't completely given up on that plan I'm not sure as to how to proceed, short of muting the offending music within every single vod hoo-boy... That's a big reason as to why I keep those events on an external hard drive. Now to the matter at hand. As to how to acquire almost every GSL & GSTL including the early 2011 events, the best way is by torrent/magnet, and that can be done here: https://starcraftvods.com/downloads.html This site exists for the preservation of StarCraft 2 events & history. If the admins don't like the link being posted for possible copyright concerns I understand that and it can be removed. | ||

Even Afreeca themselves have had VoDs pulled for music violations, although they seem to be re-uploading the ones that get pulled. | ||

Even Afreeca themselves have had VoDs pulled for music violations, although they seem to be re-uploading the ones that get pulled. My personal collection is around 270GB and comprises almost everything from 2010 GSL Season 1 to 2011 GSL Super Tournament so far. The torrent/magnet website I linked to however is actually owned and operated by the owner of twitch.tv/scvodarchives. In fact the vods you see there are the identical vods on the website, and are roughly 4.3TB in size and growing. All magnets are seeded and working as well. In regards to music violations, several old GSL & GSTL vods were removed as well when GOMexp on YouTube re-branded itself. I suspect due to copyright music violations. So there are now quite a few missing vods at SC2 Esports Anthology and surely on Liquipedia. I wrote myself a text list of all of vanished vods around 6 months ago. | ||

Sounds like a massive job but I might be up for editing some with you for your channel if you plan to do it in the future. Can have a shared Google drive/whatever and amass them there for you to download and upload to your channel. | ||

That’s smaller than I expected, suppose it’s the 360/480p era. I might give it a shot downloading those. My last time looking to get BW torrents I gave up for lack of seeding but if these are reasonably active suppose I’ll give it a crack. I have many terrabytes of really under-utilised cloud storage, might as well use what I’m paying for. Plus would probably be faster for others to download if I did stick it up there | ||

I myself have been working on downloading the missing seasons to my PC via that torrent. It's slow going, but we're getting there. So what is currently missing now? GSTL March 2011 (most of it anyway) and most of the GSL World Championship 2011? I think iirc the Team Korea vs Team World is on YouTube, albeit unlisted. For the main tournament I don't see anything, but I do have NesTea vs DIMAGA on my PC (and thank god too because that was a legendary moment). | ||
