With the recent surge of SC2 onto the scene, Brood War has pretty much been relegated to the role of an afterthought. Had Brood War not been such a popular game, who knows how many people would take any interest in SC2? The game of Brood War has evolved rapidly through the years, but still remains one of the most balanced and competitive games ever.

Pretty much throughout the history of competitive Starcraft, the OSL (OnGameNet Starleague) has always been the most prestigious title that all players covet. While some might say Proleague has taken more precedence as of late, they know that deep down it's the glory of winning individual gold that makes the OSL so prestigious. The tears of joy that every OSL winner exhibits after a win, the sheer elation from thousands of fans and supporters in the crowd. From Xellos' emotional win in Olympus to Anytime's heroic triumph over the Emperor in So1 to Stork's emotional tears of joy after finally winning gold. All these moments capture the essence of winning an OSL finals.

The OSL finals have graced us with some of the greatest games of all time. From JulyZerg's comeback on Forte against GooDFrienD to GGPlay's insane defiler defense against Iris on Python, the OSL has brought us many incredible series that will we shall forever remember. Nada's struggle against Anytime, Boxer falling short against his protege Oov, Yellow's failure to win gold. All encompassed by the OSL.

Since SC2 Beta came out, I became slightly depressed as I saw the overall viewer count during OSL/MSL/PL drop over time. Thus, I went searching for old games to revive some of that passion I used to have for watching Brood War games. While it took a long time to find some of them, I was eventually able to find all but the '99 Progamer Korea Open. Thanks to oskyloveo and some random Chinese sites, I was able to grab all the vids from each and every OSL finals and upload them for you guys to share. These games bring back great memories of the past and really does show how much the game has evolved over the course of 10 years. Plus, the spacesuit outfits in the earlier finals are amazing.

Rus_Brain has kindly mirrored them all on reps.ru if you can't use Megaupload! Big thanks!

While I know that most of these games you can watch on Youtube, I just enjoy having these videos on hand so I don't have to dig through everything and search on Youtube. Plus, some series like Yellow vs Xellos in Olympus are incomplete on Youtube. Might not be spoiler free stuff, but I feel as if most people know the results of most of these already. Oh, and I apologize cause each download link is the entire series. Didn't feel like uploading every single game so I just rarred em all up into a pack.
These download links shouldn't ever die unless Megaupload just decides to die one day. Was thinking about putting these on the tracker, but I didn't think anyone was gonna be interested in a 20 GB+ torrent.
Edit: Upped to tracker! http://www.teamliquid.net/vods/torrents/OSL_Finals_VODs.torrent
Enjoy these classics!Last edit: 2010-04-06 00:23:40 |

Haha, there are plenty of starred users that deserve the second star more than I do. I'm not even sure if I deserve this star to begin with. |

Wow.. sweet collection of vids... I lost all my SC files about a year or so back when my harddrive decided to die on me and I haven't been able to find a lot of the older videos to download. Thanks a lot. Out of curiosity, does anyone know if there's any source where one might be able to find any other older vods for download?
Thanks so much for uploading these. I'm going to start DLing them now. ^^Last edit: 2010-03-18 12:27:32 |

I haven't had any luck aside from trying on random Korean file sharing places. Torrents are plentiful for newer stuff, but the old stuff doesn't appear that often. =( |

Such a damned shame... I wanted to cry when I lost all those videos, especially since I knew that I'd probably never get most of them back since torrents tend to die fairly quickly. Well, this is a step at least.. |

Yuppers, off CB. Only issue is that CB/s DL speed is 50 kb/s. So this took me like forever to compile. |
