There's a thread over at WCReplays.com about someone making a list of the "top 25 warcraft and starcraft games of all time", and I figured hey, why not try to put a list of the top SC games together.
I haven't watched SC nearly as closely as I used to in the last two years, but I'm sure most of you here have..
So, in the same format as the "best of 08" thread, I'll start working on a list (note; the spoilers are mostly empty so far, don't bother clicking on them scroll down to see some of the games I'm considering, and post your own suggestions).
What I've actually put in so far (I consider these clear top 5 games): Boxer vs Joyo on Paradox 2 from Mycube OSL Boxer vs Garimto on Neo Forbidden Zone from Panasonic OSL Boxer vs Iloveoov on Neo Requiem from EVER 2004 OSL Nal_rA vs Savior on Sin Peaks of Baek Du from the 2nd Pringles MSL Bisu vs Stork GOMTV S2 MSL Finals - Game 5 - Loki
Yellow vs Xellos Olympus Finals - particularly the games on Bifrost and guillotine, if my memory is correct. Long time since I saw them, but I remember them being amazing.
- Nada vs Savior - Superfight III - Game 2 - Arkanoid, Truly epic TvZ from what I can recall.
Iris vs Savior Also epic, pretty sure it's a top 5 game but not gonna put it in just yet.
Iris vs GGPlay I don't remember the GGPlay vs Iris series well, but if I'm not mistaken game 5 was fairly good.
The Coca-Cola OSL Boxer vs Yellow final might have a game or two to contribute to this, but I need to rewatch them. The CC migration -> proxy rax TvZ between boxer and yellow might be considered as well.
I'm sure I've forgotten about a ton of games here but I just wanted to get things rolling. If there's already a thread like this.. well, I couldn't find it with search so please forgive me
Grrr vs Zerglee should be considered, however I don't know if we can find a vod of this since it's from a prelim. It was broadcasted in a "best of the prelims" type show on MBC, and there's a replay of the game in our replay section (1.10) if you search for Grrr.
Nada vs Gorush from YTGK had some good games, I liked the one on raid assault 2 (I think it's from there). Dunno if top 5 tho.
PvP: Game five of Bisu vs Stork MSL finals. Game five is always really tense and both players were really close until the very end when Bisu had a clutch stasis. Also Bisu bonks his head on the way out of the booth.
Bisu vs. Savior Ever OSL game 2 on Katrina, that was insane
Jaedong vs. Flash (several of these, my personal favorite was the game on Loki II) Jaedong vs. Kal @ Loki II ForGG vs. Kal Game 1 on Colosseum (where kal wins with scouts) Mind vs. BackHo @ Blue storm lol

As you can see, I've already mentioned the nal_ra vs gorush game, I just need a good youtube vod for it
It's one of my favorite games of all time.

Yeah, I'm just gonna go ahead and add that game, it really is quite sick :D I was hesitant to put it in immediately because there have been so many really good TvZs, but it's really amazing.
TvT with Boxer and Nada (back in 2004-05 I think? This was when chatting was allowed between players)
The game was a total stalemate (almost all mined out), Nada makes nukes, Boxer scans ontop of nuke, Nada moves ghost under flying barrack and boxer writes Boxer: lol you must think I'm an idiot to think I can't see that Nada just starts cracking up after that. Game extends to Battlecruisers vs Wraiths, Nada wins with wraiths and sends Massive Medic/Marine. Boxer doesn't understand why Nada has money and accepts defeat.
