is there an easy list of maps that they use on the circuits or any download links?

some of them seem fairly awesome.

Teamliquid has the list of the maps somewhere.

So who else is ready to spend 8hours/day playing SC2 when it comes out? I know i am.

iCCup :: International Cyber Cup

That has almost all the maps used in pro games. ICCup is the competitive ladder for westerners. Bnet is noob city.

That is the only english commentator I could find. Only watched two videos, he's not bad, but no klazart. WC3 really doesn't seem as good at the pro-level from what I've seen so far. Can't put my finger on exactly why.

Haven't seen any games played by Ssak, is he still in the GSL? That tournament has had so many upsets its insane.

Been concentrating on the Averatec Intel Classics Season 2 so far heh. Thx again for the gomtv.net reccomendation. Really enjoying catching english commentary live from the game instead of hunting it down.

Anyone else catch the Flash vs . Fantasy game other night? Amazing 2 games specially with flash's micro'ing.
Just wish I could catch OSL and the other main ones in same way instead of hunting them down on youtube.

yes, very much so

been messing around with SC1 lately, and its quite hard to get a match on a blizzard map besides BGH, i have been wanting to try and get my RTS skills refined before SC2 gets here.

Just looking on the GOM site for his first game... and can't find it. I don't know if they took it down or what. Hopefully we can still see a game from in the ro64.

I ran one of the top teams on US East for years, and we got involved in some of these leagues. Did really well actually, until you get to the amatuer pro players - then forget about it. We could literally roflstomp every single person we came across until we hit that korean wall. These people are absolutely beastly and I ended up quitting because I just couldn't put the effort forward to compete with these people, so my hats off to them.

ValkyrieIsAboutToDie · 11-11-2008, 01:11 PM

Moar vids of sick Starcraft matches with good commentary plz. I'm awful at the 'Craft but for some reason this shit is fascinating to me.

Bladefury · 11-11-2008, 01:45 PM

Oh man, I got into this about half a year ago. Been loving it ever since...

GOMTV.net

Second season of the Intel Classic in Korea, has the top rated players in the world (according to KESPA rating.)

Last season, Jaedong (number 1 ranked in KESPA) and Flash (number 2) met in the finals, and Jaedong totally dominated 3-0... it was amazing.

Watching players of that skill level is really like watching art.

Edit: Also, link has all videos from games last season, and all videos of games so far this season. Great videos with pretty decent commentary.

The Ancient · 11-11-2008, 01:49 PM

So is there anywhere that does 2v2 matches? I'm curious to watch a few games of something like that too since it's what I ended up playing half the time. 1v1s are too nerve-racking to do constantly.

possible · 11-11-2008, 01:56 PM

Proleague used to do 2v2, but they took it out this season because no one liked it. Could probably find some older VOD's of it.
