I found this replay commentated by moletrapsc on youtube. Free fights the number one draft pick for this season, yCh, on a new map called "Acro 0.92". Its in four parts on youtube, about 45 minutes long. A great macro game with some clutch micro. Here is the link for the first part:

Epic PvZ

Disclaimer: This is not a plug for moletrap. I wanted to point out one of the best games I have seen during the off-season.

I agree, it is a very good game. There has not been such a good long PvZ in a while, so seeing this was very refreshing. Afterall, epic PvZ`s are what StarCraft is all about. I was pleasantly suprised by the performance of both player. It is a shame yCh did so poorly in the MSL/OSL perliminaries, it would have been nice to see him in the individual leagues.

This game will likely remain the best one that was played on Acro, since KeSPA decided not to include it in Proleague. Although this could still change after Round 1, it is unlikely, given the amount of criticism Acro received.

Totally Pimp this game.. Never seen DarkArchons against Zerg before.. And the Maelstrom, and the Feedback - just sexy man, awesome.. (
// I was kinda chering for the Zerg.. ) //

However - All those Archons.. Man that's too much for Ultras to handle..

nah, PvZ is inevitably epic: they are two opposite (but equal) forces.

SPOILER:

I was surprised to see no mutas, but i guess with the corsair build, it was a good call.

Also surprised by late reavers... really turned the tide, but why not sooner?

Lastly, i was really surprised by the lack of scourge: one good pressure/mismicro on P's part and his reavers go byebye... and that could have really saved his ass when Z was down.

Overall, amazing game, and good commentary by moletrap (minus the 8 minute monologue about paying him ("please do... but i mean, no pressure... but like, if you can id love it.... but again, no big deal if you dont (PS i kinda need any and all money you can spare....)")

Really loved those storms, too. His good storming and defense of those doom drops was really critical.

Pimpest play: have to agree with moletrap: that dark archon maelstrom allowed him to get right back in the game after he lost his army.

Definitely one of the most epic games i've seen. Malestorm was something i had never seen before in a PvZ. Archons definitely are Zerg's nemesis. I wonder why the zerg player never changed to hydras: It would've been easier to deal with archons, zealots, and reavers with hydras.

i like the protoss because of there abilits to hide in the shadows. that all u can see is that one ship but under that one ship is an army waiting to kill you.


That one ship, huh? Cool!

Lol I know you're new here but try to be ON TOPIC, please. I don't recall seeing any Arbiters (proper name for "that one ship") in that match. oO

Pretty epic. I wish I could micro my storms that well. I also wish I could macro that well.

Knee be nice, don't let them drag you down.

Spoilers:
Yeah I agree with Crucero de Batalla the Zerg player need to go Hydra sooner. The revers were the turning point for the Protoss, you could tell that the Zerg player just did not have an answer to them.

ZvT`s are not even nearly as epic as ZvP`s.

Darkhell, breaking the rules with one of your first posts is not a very good idea. Keep it up and you will not be here for long.

this match was interesting. but and yes a good ZvP is a sight to behold, and a rare one at that.

but the shout casters desperate plea for help was sooooo annoying when we could have been talking about the game, and what their openers where.

P.s. Just as a bit of an offtopic question. i used to watch matches on gomtv. now that gomtv will likley not go on, what other websites do you guys use to watch proleague matches in english?

thats why i loved gomtv, cos you had professional (i use that term lightly) english shoutcasters. as compared to the likes which ask for money for 8 minutes.
