How to play back SC demos


* Scroll down for the link to the actual VOD.

I know Starcraft VODs aren't often posted here, but after Paladia posted a VOD recently I though it was a pretty cool idea, and this VOD is definitely worth sharing. To really enjoy this VOD, a little bit of background knowledge of SC is needed. In short, what you need to know is:

1. YellOw (this is the real YellOw by the way, not Yarnc) was one of the top zerg progamers mostly between 2001-2003 (apart from a bronze in a 2006 OSL). He was considered BoxeR's #1 rival. He joined the air force in late 2008 and currently plays for Air Force ACE. In April this year an article came out on a popular Korean Starcraft website about how YellOw had been breathing life back into ACE with his intense practice and determination (read here).

YellOw hasn't won a KeSPA officiated match in 735 days.

2. Bisu is widely considered the current #1 Protoss progamer, and in the top 3 of current players. By statistics, PvZ is his best matchup (~66% career win rate).

3. The map these two played on tonight has ~ 35% win rate for Zerg vs Protoss (Heartbreak Ridge).

This match took place during SKT T1 vs. ACE in Proleague. T1 is 2nd (I think?) in the league at the moment. ACE is at the bottom.

Sorry for the wall of text, but I hope it helps some people appreciate this a little more.

And here is the VOD. Enjoy!
