Hey guys here is a match between some of the best players in the world oGsCool and JangMinChul. They are playing as Zerg and Protoss and the commentator is Hunter. Both players expand early, with the Protoss sending in Phoenixes to harassment the Zerg.

The Zerg gets Mutalisks while the Protoss masses Stalkers and Sentries. Mid way through the match the Protoss sends in some Dark Templar and is able to destroy many of the Zerg workers. The Protoss then attacks the Zerg players second expansion but a counter attack of Mutalisks comes in to destroy the Protoss players only expansion which really hurts his economy. Smart play by the Zerg but too much teching by the Protoss.

Have a look at this quick match between LiquidTLO and Dimaga playing as Protoss and Zerg. They are both extremely high level players. The map is Steppes of War which is small and good for rushing and the caster is burgback.

The Terran starts the match by immediately building two Barracks in the middle of the map. The unsuspecting Zerg fast expands while the Terran starts pumping out Marines. Once he has a small group of them he attacks. You have to give this a try.

Hows it going guys here is a great match between Gosu and NikethB. They are Diamond level Protoss and Terran playing on Lost Temple with Blitz commentating. This is a longer match which means you are about to see a lot of intense combat.

The Terran starts with some small attacks on the Protoss using Hellions and Banshees. While doing this he builds to Marines, Siege Tanks, and Ravens. The Protoss holds his own against the Terran harassment while building Zealots, Sentries, and Colossus. The fight at the end of part one is amazing, as well as the rest of the battles in part two.

Hey I hope your weekend is going great have a look at this high level match between Stalife and DCRodrigo. They are playing as Terran and Protoss on Kulas Ravine and the caster is Aleesa. Lots of good tips to learn from this.

The Terran sends a small army of Marines and Marauders to attack the Protoss expansion at about the five minute mark but is pushed back. The Protoss counter attacks but is also held off and both players rebuild their armies. A Medivac drop comes to the high ground above the Protoss expansion and tons of Probes get destroyed. But the Protoss again counter attacks with Colossus and things gets serious.
