Recommended SC2 VOD Thread

1. Recommended game submissions must contain the following:
   
   • A link directly to the page hosting the VOD of the game, if the VOD is available (where no such link exists, include the most convenient link and instructions on how to navigate to the VOD from that link)
     
   • IDs/names of the players involved
     
   • All identifying information for the game: tournament/event, match/group, and set number
     
   • The date that the game was first broadcast (any time zone works)
     
   • IDs/names of the commentators
     
   • In spoiler tags labeled "spoiler-free", a description of the game that explains why the game belongs in this thread, but does not spoil the game's result or some juicy fact about the game that's best left a mystery (use your best judgment)
     
   • A poll that allows readers to rate the game on the following three-point scale:
     
     • 1: This game does not belong in this thread
       
     • 2: I enjoyed watching this enough that I would have recommended it here myself
       
     • 3: This game is an earth-shattering must-watch for any SC2 fan
     If a submission's poll results are too low, it may be removed from this thread.
   
   
2. Submissions may also contain additional description of, information about, or comment on the game. Anything flies, as long as it's useful or interesting to viewers and reasonably spoiler-free (see Rule 4). Some ideas:
   
   • Relevant TLPD and Liquipedia links
     
   • The map
     
   • Relevant background reading or viewing (post-match interview? TL drama thread?)
     
   • Strategy analysis
     
   • Stories about the VOD-watching experience
   
   
3. Submissions (and other posts in this thread) must be reasonably spoiler-free. + Show Spoiler [specific rules] +
   
   

   1. If knowledge of a player involved would spoil the result of any set or match played shortly before the recommended game (for example, in the 3set-5set of MSL format group play, the 2set-7set of a GSTL/Winners League format team match, or in the elimination stages of a several-day tournament), the player's name must be in spoiler tags.
      
   2. If knowledge of the set number would spoil the result of any set or match played shortly before the recommended game (for example, in the 5set-7set of a best-of-seven), the set number must be in spoiler tags or spoiler-free terms (for example, the "final set" of a BoX).
      
   3. If a comment on or description of a game spoils the game's result, it must be in spoiler tags.
      
   4. If a comment on or description of a game reveals some juicy fact about the game that's best left a mystery, it should be in spoiler tags. Use your best judgment.
      
   5. General TL spoiler etiquette applies.
