SPL Bisu vs YellOw 2009-06-20 @ Heartbreak Ridge

[@LiFsWo]

I miss this time, when I cam back home from school. And there were many uploads of new games that were played. I just watched every single one. Probably spent thousands of hours just watching pro plays.

[@Exotic_Tofu]

yeah SC had a good run. rest in peace blizzard

[@ManFromTheFizz]

Wtf is wrong with sc2 then? LoL and Dota seem to be sapping away the commonwealth : (

[@Exotic_Tofu]

David Louis the story for SC2 was so disappointing..after all the badass build up with the amazing atmosphere of the original and brood wars secret level, my childhood was forever crushed..

[@benscoles4675]

Nein danke yes!!! that's also my memories!

[@FFFFFFF-FFFFFFFUUUUCCCC]

Nein danke BW tournaments and streams are regaining popularity in South Korea (because most people here were disappointed by SC2 and nostalgic for BW), and Brood War veterans are playing again. Some Korean gaming channels are re-hosting BW tournaments as well, although not in the scale of the "good old days". There are also young and active BW players that emerged post-SC2 migration that are arguably equal to, or better than the old players (that is a topic for another time...). However, the tournaments are all in Korean, and the titles are in Korean, so it might be hard to find for non-Koreans. Fresh matches are made every day, and the strategies/builds are still changing; BW is still alive and breathing.

[@pbn_373]

Back here in 2021. I'm glad that a bunch of the old pros still stream. Miss these days.

[@ZuLuuuuuu]

One of the best matches I've ever seen. Brilliant game by Yellow.

[@ArthurYCLiu]

One of my favourite moment. It never gets old.

[@glaycard85]

This is the first starcraft match that made me cry. It was so touching and superb played by YellOw.

[@CryingMG]

12 years later this is still one of the most action packed cheeses in SPL.

[@TheBarbahaba]

couldnt agree more :)

[@nestcanz]

what is the meaning of cheese you are refering to?

[@TheBarbahaba]

​@@nestcanz one would define cheese as an all in game where if your specific strategy to finish the game fast (or manage to make a considerable damage to the opponent) dont work you lose rush to drop lurkers would be in my book a cheese .. but it was done so well it may be considered one of the best games especially considering the opposition he played against

[@nestcanz]

@@TheBarbahaba so basically a risky operation/tactic which may lead to win?

[@TheBarbahaba]

@@nestcanz risky is an understatement , its more of an action where if you dont succeed you are so far behind in term of economy or tech that the game is considered a loss

[@manyalforever]

Old school play at its finest, simply amazing. I miss that good old days :(

[@TripsZ111]

Yellow did everything almost perfect in this game. Perfect micro, perfect placements of lurkers to avoid cannons, perfect timing. When you want to show your friends of a game of being 'out played', this is it.

[@thunddr]

I want two things: 1. Translation of what the commentators are screaming about and what they're saying about this absolutely amazing match. 2. One of those MBC commentator clips on this match. They MUST have tears of joy pouring out over this match :D

[@tecrubio]

Here again to watch this jewel of the past

[@kookoon]

If I remember correctly this was when Yellow was in military and wasn't at top performance anymore. He was supposed to lose this game but he used a brilliant tactic with the overlords for take bisu offguard. Really nice game.

[@Wow4ik4ik]

yellow wins due to bisu`s poor defence tactic and stuid loose of a reaver

[@TheBarbahaba]

wasnt on form was an understatement until that game he had 2 and half years without a win !!! and against the best pvz in that era this was the biggest upset if i ever seen one ... shame the team lost 3-1 but still this game will be remembered for ages:)

[@function1983]

Still epic even after 10 years

[@김정민-c5l2r]

헣허허휴ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ 진짜 이걸다시보네 신한프로리그 그리고 박상현캐스터저목소리도진짜오랫만에듣는다..감동

[@H1Smurf]

this match never gets boring! no matter how many times you watch it!!

[@yvaes]

i can't get over how amazing that game was. holy. shit. this was easily the most cheered game of all time. i wouldn't be surprised if this is the best game we'll see ALL year.

제 손가락에 손꼽히는 경기중 하나는 예전.. 최연성선수와의 U-BOAT 혈전 경기였습니다.. 그때 통탄의 패배를 하며 결국 또다시 준우승을 하고 말았죠. 그리고 2010년 저 경기를 보면서 다시 그때의 필사적인 느낌을 다시 받았고 이번에는 그림같은 승리를 일궈냈습니다. 홍진호선수 비록 은퇴했지만 e스포츠팬들 마음속에는 영원히 잊혀지지 않는 별입니다.

[@dlehdwls201]

735일만에 나오는 홍진호가 당시 최고의 프로토스를 홍진호스럽게 잡을줄은 아무도 몰랐을거다

[@fisyher84]

I still watch this EPIC match every now and then even though it's 2.5 years AGO!

[@yvaes]

you know, something that isn't noted as much, but YellOw is known for his ridiculous amount of practice time, which also is the case for his time in ACE. Note how happy his teammates are for him when he wins. That's the widest smile I've ever seen on Casy and GoRush. God, I love ACE. GO TEAM!

[@lycanthropic1122]

Boxer had a similar moment when he beat Savior in '06 or '07 in Proleague. Can't remember. Both Savior and Bisu were in their primes when they lost to those legends, so it was hype to watch.

[@davidvsdiego2]

14:57 most epic GG

[@somekindoflandcow]

GEEEE GEEEEEEE

[@yvaes]

i don't care if ACE won or lost, this made me soooooooo happy.

[@duynhatphan6484]

One of the best, still awesome. 2024

[@Picaroon9]

This game always brings a smile to my face.

[@Nemi246]

15:10 - They actually started chanting yellow's name (Hong Jin Ho).. I've never heard the audience do that before, this is just so awesome :D

[@SindarinElealar]

Wow, Yellow! I haven't seen slowlord mass drops since...well, since Yellow was active before ACE. Old school revolution!

[@milosjovanovic6730]

God I'm glad these games are saved. Thank you nevake!!!

[@ForYouMP]

@petvnla The crowd's reaction isn't strictly starcraft related. Yellow is a former champion who is considered old and washed up. The only thing holding him up is his former reputation as champion. Bisu is a modern day champion. Yellow is loved, but he was a heavy underdog in this match, but people will always watch him play because of he has earned the respect of his fans. Fans go into the match expecting him to lose, but he defeats the STRONGEST protoss in the world. Storm Zerg fighting!

[@Phayze101]

SICKKKK MATCH. YellOw was always one of my favorite players and he has just proved he can still beat the best of the best... The bisu.

[@PizzaTemplar]

Watching this never gets old!!!

[@mainaHighway]

이 영상을 보면 콩까는 소리는 더는 없을 것이다. 보는 이들이 더 재밌어지게 하는 이 게임은...가히 전설급일 거다.

[@frozenclaw]

THAT WAS SO AWESOME! Couldn't stop cheering and smiling!

[@manyalforever]

This game was amazing I watched it live. Good times...

[@7Wolf77]

I live in Korea, and trust me they are not ashamed to be there. Really is just that the StarLeague and ProCup is played on cable tv across the country. The matches are usually played during school/cram school hours, and they could get in trouble by teachers (who watch also) if caught.

What is the second intro song after "The Antidote" ???

[@1Anglik]

Epic. Those emotions...

[@FieryBalrog]

Yellow is a very old school player who has a huge fan base in Korea. He's also really popular with teh gurlz, he was a favorite "pretty boy" of the early Starcraft era. That's why people were cheering for him, esp since he hasn't won in a while (he hasn't even played seriously in a while, he played poker for a few years and now he's in the army)

[@danielalbertoaguilar]

Acabo de ver el juego, fué simplemente hermoso. Combates como este son los que te hacen FAN del mejor juego de la historia, el juego en el que NADA está escrito: Starcraft.

Whats the name of the song that stars at 00:11?

[@nestcanz]

Truly a Heartbreak Ridge :D

[@TaimalaiX]

His sign was something like "I came to watch StarCraft and I fell in love"

[@jerrythebest]

Drone mining fake at the bottom left and then 3cm overlord drop... This match was definitely the best of the best! 이 경기 완전 최고임... 팬들도 진짜 많았네

[@jzero4813]

Holy SHIT! This EASILY makes one of the top 10 games of Starcraft EVER. Just watch it - NOW.

[@fundermental4536]

다시봐도 띵경기

[@Vert3X44]

AWESOME! Watch the game then read the comments...ALL of them (especially the first couple)!!! KZbin literally won't let me thumbs up any more comments because I did it too many times on this video!

[@Centurionz]

-bisu's loss to stork was because stork outplayed him by a mile -he lost to jangbi not because of the distance, but because of the choke that prevented his units from all attacking on topic that was one of the greatest games played

[@hoschnvdo]

@demicat12 why is yellow leaving again?

[@l3ts9o]

Yellow is an ACE legend who happens to not having a televised win for the past TWO YEARS. When someone like that just straight up (kind of ironic lol, since he cheesed) outplays an S-class gamer, you gotta cheer for him. I can see your point tho. People went batshit insane there. I could literary imagine all those people who were seeing this game just jump up and scream GG like the commentators did.

[@blueming1225]

홍진호 이겨서 중계진들은 물론 관중석에 엤는 팬들도 엄청나게 환호 했었네

can any one name the band and/or song in the first 10 seconds

[@MrChonkers]

This video is awesome on so many levels.

[@DontLookTheShoe1]

yellow show us how to make a gosu cry(bisu)

[@Valencenz]

Enjoyed the game ^^ just wish i could understand Korean. What were the songs at the start called? thanks.

[@underakillingmoon]

Yellow was one of the best player of the world. He didn't win has much as he deserved because of Slayer'Boxer who was so good he won every tournment. Yellow was the best zerg in the world, and he still has many fan :)

[@didaksFHC]

what happened at 3:50 that they scream about ?? pls reply ^^

[@ZWCoolkid]

Wow if the atmosphere, crowd fun/excitement, and game quality were this good every time, way more people would watch SC Awesome game, awesome comment, awesome _VIDEO_

[@petvnla]

@butaklokloklo maybe.. shows abt video game competition isn't popular in my country

[@singingsatellite6845]

song at the end?

[@gabqcm]

im a bisu fan... but that was so damn amazing! great game

[@seunghyunlee2039]

아직도 보는사람 ?

[@user-ug5mc7me2h]

ㅇㅇ

[@cwaepo1nT]

this is what epic win stands for . GREAT game !

[@kummal]

this was an amazing game! even thoug as a bisu fan i'm a little worried about his recent losing streak

[@Xeeero123]

Question: So usually the crowd is with Bisu at least the girls, but this game it seemed the crowd LOVED yellow. Is there a reason for this, as it seems to be an anomoly

[@yvaes]

i'm still watching this game.

[@갓띵진]

10주년 기념 왔습니다

[@dexydark]

I love Bisu, but this were one of the rare times, i can see the old Yellow against one of the or not the best PvZ players of the world.... And sry to say this, but i rooted for yellow on this one. Amazing play....

[@FliBerries]

that was by far the best cheese i've ever seen in such a long time. i thought it was going to be a 3 hatch break like we've seen from before... but damn, that was a brilliant plan. i didnt see it coming...KIM TAEK YONG didnt see it coming but still, he could have held that off better.

[@SeenaSeenaSeena]

there reason is such a great game is because of the OUTCOME!!! NO ONE WOULD EVER THINK HE'D WIN THE GAME. THAT'S WHY THE LOSING PLAYER IS IN SHOCK AND THAT THE FANS ARE GOING CRAZY JUST LIKE I AM

[@thunddr]

This was one of the first times I've actually jumped up in my chair and screamed GG!!!! at the end of this match hahaha People were screaming and crying on the stream and the forums.

[@underakillingmoon]

yes it is right. And the way he micro the hydra, hit and run, load/unload on overlord was pretty amazing. Bisu's Reaver used to be far more efficient.

[@0kthenn]

man i bet RIGHT when yellow saw this map he came up with this slow drop strat and knew it'd work out beautifully. that's why the coach put him in for this map.

[@RichDavis13]

That's surprising. Hard to imagine Sponsers and advertisement being the only moneymaker for starcraft and it's programers/workers.

[@kenk5269]

15:36 best moment for a fan

[@kniad]

15:34 those two girls hugging each other in sheer mark out moment!

[@odiumisfun]

O_O Yellow you inspire me, staying 2 bases when P FE's and going for a slow drop into main when sairs are out, ballsOVsteel, makes me wanna play sc...

[@joselingzapata9394]

Pobre bisu no pudo contra Yellow. En todo momento fue mas inteligente Yellow

[@TuEIite]

@moose162 neh means yes.

[@mastergd]

holy shit, best game ive seen since the one hour stork v ggplay match.

[@hydelun92]

wow CRAZY CROWD! i couldn't hear anything audiable when Bisu's multi was attacked

[@ldx0427]

wau.. brilliant match by yellow.. he realli shows de great moves to fight v bisu... single base rush.. trasnport of hydra and lucker.. mutalisk .. He attacked on all weak points of bisu military..

[@han6299]

성지순례 왔읍니다... 면접 합격하게해주세요

[@DiziCone]

really? Jaedong is still ahead of bisu by like 400 points as of July 09. I'm assuming you're speaking in terms of the kespa rankings

[@i9erek]

Yeah I was waiting for some twist or something but it seems no surprises there.

[@jackal3311]

what does mean "jeee" and "neee" ? :D

[@kmyoon6196]

[@jetaimemina]

You have no idea what you're talking about, I've seen Yellow on his pokerstars name LifeisJust on more than one occasion.

[@Jdog7117]

Its how many wins the player has after winning the game.

[@SahunHong]

This game shows the essence of StarCraft. I surely hope Starcraft II will carry on the name and the character of the best ever RTS.

[@seeatlantis]

everyone on ACE looked happy after that win.
