I was just thinking it would be funny/interesting to share a few replays of our melee games here. The goal is not really to show off (leave that to websites already sharing pro replays by hundreds), but rather share games where something unusual happened to you while playing (unexpected build order that works/sucks, flawless micro/macro, epic fail/win in 4 minutes, your worth/best game ever, winning with mass ravens, great WTF moment,...).
I'm still in the training league personally (actually, 6 matches left and I think I'll be bronze) so I'm not a pro or anything, but I think there are a few games I could show, because they were not that bad... or were funny to watch (I love when the guy fights to the death for 40 minutes without any strategy and... ragequit!). The only requirement is to share a MELEE replay (preferably when you were playing, not spectating). We shouldn't spam with custom games (ie. scenarios, minigames and such), because it forces people to download the maps if they don't have them or don't want them.
I think it could be a great way to get better in melee too, if you're as much of a noob as I am you could share a few games and ask people how to improve... What do you think, do you have any funny replays ready to be shared? :)
That game was funny.... I was phantom and powning everyone, my base got killed by charged void rays that would have slaughtered me if I had sent in my army, so I just built 30 pylons for a new base, then my probe got suck behind a pylon and it had to attack its way out.......... By the time i got it free it was too late.
You're free to open a new thread about custom games replays but that's not my point here... Besides, if everyone starts sharing their replays of custom maps, you have to consider regions: A few maps are only in EU (or NA or whatever), which means we can't see the replay if the map is not available in our region. I'm not against sharing a few replays of custom games, but not for now. I'd rather wait, and see how this thread goes, before thinking about switching to custom games.
Well, I guess I should start by uploading one of my own replays... One of my latest game in 1v1 in Novice Kulas Ravine (damn these rocks...). I went very, very greedy right from the start, which helped a lot, but why do people keep fighting when it is sooooo obvious they lost?

So you don't want a phantom mode replay?
