Do my eyes DECIEVE ME?! 🎉We are entering a golden era of SC BW. `Slayers_Boxer` Is your favorite player's favorite player. he is the one who created and mastered the famous tank drop. his micro is what inspired every single pro player, including Flash. He once famously said. Please don't forget me. We won't Boxer. We won't. 🏆
@@Repetoire heheh, the chess reference is hard, Carlsen is so much better then Morphy. Maybe even in talent, just maybe. But i am not so much into sc, and i am not sure about boxer, but i am sure about flash era.
@@matejtopic826 Yes Carlsen is a better player on an absolute level, he is the strongest chess player of all time. But Murphy was relatively the strongest of all time, since he was so far above his peers it wasnt even funny. Carlsen isnt that far above his peers. What makes Murphy's accomplishment so great is that its extremely difficult to get so good without someone else at your level who can drive you forward, challenge you and force you to improve.
In the sports club I frequently go to there's this Korean guy in his mid-50s who's always on his phone while waiting for his turns. Out of curiosity I asked him one day how he was doing, what he was watching and he showed me, replays of Boxer matches. Cool dude. Told me everyone his generation back in Korea knew Boxer. He said he would beat me playing random in BGH too. 😅
Boxer is the reason I watch pro Starcraft at all. If not for him I wouldn't still be here! I've always wanted to ask you Artosis what your opinion of him is and where he ranks all-time or any other important contributions he had. To me, he will always be the father of ALL esports. Thank you so much for finding his this and I hope you cast more!
The commentary play-by-plays have brought this all to a whole new level of a package. Really impressed with how much this channel is still improving (from already top tier reference point :D), the flow and tone of it are an absolute blast to watch and will give many of these replay casts great replayability. More tags on games maybe?
Love watching Boxer play, even to this day. Brings back a lot of memories, nostalgia and most importantly inspiration. Makes me want to play competitively again and pick up Terran.
He's one of the first pro SC players I ever knew, gives me a lots of nostalgia and also makes me so happy his still playing and being a GOAT, salutes to all veteran SC:BW players around here! Legends never die
Does anyone else remember Lego Island for the PC? Using Spider Mines to help your tanks escape the goons reminds me of dropping pizza during the Lego car race to slow down your opponents
I recently watched a Korean game show called "The genius" with Boxer and Yellow in them. Boxer's personality was so funny especially in season 2. Definitely recommended.
Crecí viendo las partidas los replays de boxer para mí el mejor boxer de la historia las partidas contra los top Zerg y los Protoss sus micro Game los movimientos de los fantasmas contra los Carriers ver a boxer jugar en 2023 es un lujo
The most important player in the history of starcraft casting SlayerS_'BoxeR'!!!! Excellent! :P Loved watching Boxer play back in the day, and even now after all these years he's still playing at a really high level! Good memories!
00:00 this intro is SO EPIC at 00:28 the trumpet come in right before Artosis starts speaking again, emphasing the moment in a legendary fashion, perfect moment SSS content
I clicked so fast. I missed out on so much starcraft history but not learning about the pro scene until college due to the starcraft 2 beta videos with day9.
Man, this takes me back. Boxer, Yellow, Garimto. I loved Nal_Ra, and his attempted come back had a cool documentary showing the crazy training necessary. I remember seeing the stadiums and costumes the players wore, and being amazed at the spectacle of the birth of eSports.
I did feel that there was something special about the nickname 'Emperor of Terran' that was given to me. Though I regularly practice over ten hours and my entire body feels like it will melt down, I hold myself up, thinking, "I should live up to the name." -Lim Yo-Hwan
this is the second video ive commented on and not in order of release. idk if it's becuase Boxer is an absolute legend or you're absolutely great at what you do. Either way cheers toasty (that's what a call you in my head)
Very impressive micro and fighting ability in the centre of the map, based on the way he played I got the sense that he wanted to be all-in during the mid game and overwhelm the opponent rather than play a long game. Reminds me a bit of how Jaedong played when he first came back.
6:43 “im gettin a few chills here” This dude is the only pro player whose name i ever heard of back in the day, over 20 years ago. This is the first time i seen him play.
I agree with the other comments, i would be very interested in the more older games of pros in general. Games that changed the way starcraft would be played, historical moments. Or even just games where you can learn about strategy/ tactics of races. That would be very informative and interesting
BoxeR really showed in that early game why once upon a time the FD push was so popular and strong back in the day. putting the pressure on the protoss instead of having the pressure on you is VERY effective even for a build that by today's standards is not very strong anymore. even though the Protoss had a much earlier expansion, BoxeR not only kept up but was really laying it on. ultimately, having that earlier expo did snowball, but it still really shows just how effective it can be.
I distinctly remember, either during ASL season 15 or 16, we saw a player do Boxer style marine micro vs some lurkers, and Tastosis were both cracking up because that's something nobody's done since Boxer's time. It's wild how much the game has changed since then. Loved seeing this game, even if Boxer looked a little weaker in the modern era.
I still remember watching Boxer replays. Being a Zerg player myself I wanted to root for Yellow but Boxer was always two steps ahead of him in terms of strategy and execution. I am pretty sure one of their finals is available in UA-cam, I remember seeing it in terrible quality. Also remember KlazartSC and VioletAK commentaries of Boxer games, I believe after he came back from the military. The videos could only be 10 minutes long, and sometimes when the match ended soon they would upload "anti-spoiler videos" so that you don't figure out too quickly what happens.
Impressive that he is still able to play at this level at 43! i cant even play starcraft anymore my fingers hurt like crazy when i do and im only in my 30s... :(
@@usmh Young people don't realize how demanding BW is. The body isn't made for games like this. It's why all the pros always end up getting surgeries.
I can't think of any other player with such a massive differential between their micro and macro abilities. Great game though, awesome to see Boxer after all this time.
boxer moved his army around the map really well, probably better than any other terran, but his army is too small due to lack of attention to macro and lose most fights. but he is definitely "at the right place at the right time", it's just he didn't have enough army. this is unlike most other terrans who just sits in their base massing up and only pushing out when upgrades hits. active movements are something to come in the future, by some other terran with solid macro to back it up
The Terran Emperor himself. The godfather of innovative strategies. Gosugaming where i watch or DL replays just to catch of glimpse of his plays. Correct me if im wrong, Artosis u appear in Xellos era, which i refer the prince or the successor of Terran.
I would really appreciate it if you put out commentary of Boxers most important games! The history, the nostalgia!
I'd love this too, my fav part of this replay was the analysis of old strategies at the end
That would be great, but I think that's going to be easier said that done due to copyright issues. Even some of Boxer montages were copyright claimed
This would be amazing and I hope Arty does it. I've been wanting to watch old school peak BW era games with Boxer and it's hard to find.
do it please. it would be cool to contrast those games to games from top players nowadays too

Boxer is my goat I think he's better than flash tho less accomplished. Like Morphy vs Carlsen lol.
Good thing you mentioned Flash. Flash vs Boxer is a game you should definitely watch narrated by Klazart. Epic epic game lol

Boxer... The only person I've been a fan of in my life, back in 2005 when vods were finally accessible and I became a terran player thx to him
💯
Thanks to him??? He cursed you to need 100 more apm than other races :(

BGH was simply the best thing that happened to Broodwar.. ahahaha
Artosis putting Boxer in the thumbnail is like Levi putting Magnus in the thumbnail - there's a 0% chance I won't be clicking it
Except boxer is washed up and Magnus is still the GOAT
@user-bn1ns6xp3i Boxer has been washed up for more years than he hasn't been at this point. Doesn't matter, still a legend and a big name.
@@JohnDoe-l4d9h
Paul Morphy is the GOAT of chess
LimRaynor is like actually an insanely well named ID for Boxer LMAO (His real name is Lim Yo-hwan)
I like how "marrying a korean actress" was on Artosis' list of Boxer's accomplishments. Someone alert wifetosis
It's pretty much an accomplishment
@@goodisgood153 yea right. money and nation wide fame had nothing to do with it like always :D

I saw TERRAN EMPEROR RETURNS and I clicked. I may bookmark this and watch it weekly. My emperor has returned.
Boxer is the reason I play Terran. Legend

What about NaDa? He was also pretty epic T player.. 🙂
@@jirihutecka9020 Indeed, but I maybe it is because I found Boxer's videos first.
@@jonathansiles5120 Yeah NaDa is much younger..
wow, can't wait to see more of Boxer if he's doing a Flash. GG!
Boxer is most likely 43 years old. What a legend
43 and still the most f*ckable man in Korea. Every time he steps into a room every pair of panties instantly become drenched.
Good ol 'Boxer'
Boxer vs NTT on New No Way Out... that drop ship play was revolutionary
i think you did great on the history and the explanations of the subject !
I made it to the end. Would love to see more of these!
I cried whenever Slayers_Boxer beat Grrrr...
Really a blast from the past to see his play style. And crazy to see how good his control (micro) is after all these years.
Now here’s hoping he hits NaDa on ladder! Thanks as always for the cast and the postgame analysis Artosis- looking forward to what you’ve got next!
Nada run his own game company. He sometimes show up other pro's streaming but not doing his own.

Cool to see some history and it's cool to learn some background information about brood war
Limraynor is a pretty cool idea given the context.

Gg. Thanks for the cast, Artosis!
Nice to see aggressive terran vs toss for a change.
..... that control to save both the turret and the SCV.... holy.... shit
Lim Yo Hwan, Slayers boxer, the emperor himself, some percentage of me becoming a TERRAN player forever in SC1 and SC2 was because of him.
I clicked so fast. I missed out on so much starcraft history but not learning about the pro scene until college due to the starcraft 2 beta videos with day9.
Man, this takes me back. Boxer, Yellow, Garimto. I loved Nal_Ra, and his attempted come back had a cool documentary showing the crazy training necessary. I remember seeing the stadiums and costumes the players wore, and being amazed at the spectacle of the birth of eSports.
The Holy Trinity of SC: Boxer, Mc_yellow and Nal_Ra. Protoss Nalra is my fave but he fell behind yellow and boxer

No fucking way! The legend among legends! The true emperor of Terrans.
Daaaaammnnn ❤❤🎉
Artosis throwing some MAJOR Respect on Boxer at the beginning ❤❤🎉

Clever tag LimRaynor 😂
Gg, thanks for the upload Artosis!
checked out boxers profile. he's been playing zerg and toss too. what an actual goat
Very impressive micro and fighting ability in the centre of the map, based on the way he played I got the sense that he wanted to be all-in during the mid game and overwhelm the opponent rather than play a long game. Reminds me a bit of how Jaedong played when he first came back.
Made it to the end and i was told to tell you! Happy Holidays!
His nickname was actually SlayerS_`BoxerS`. I remember the guy from 2000, he would play on Neo Gamei servers. I was just a kid back then ...
I am so nostalgic for a simpler time now
Cool match. When Boxer had 1,000+ minerals at 7:40 you could tell his macro was rusty though!
6:43 “im gettin a few chills here”
This dude is the only pro player whose name i ever heard of back in the day, over 20 years ago.
This is the first time i seen him play.
Thanks to Reach I started playing Protos, that matches against Boxer were loud kicks for the Emperor
Уважение легенде!! А Андрей просто профи. :-)
Can't recall the last time I clicked a video this fast

@@thomassteele9649yes it can just stretch your hands and drink water get a better posture. Anyone can play accessibility is awesome.

That sounds worrying. If I hurts that much, I don't think it's just age and BW.
@@usmh Young people don't realize how demanding BW is. The body isn't made for games like this. It's why all the pros always end up getting surgeries.

I like the History you told .
can you cast the old games ? which in Korean ?
I didn't even know you could back from scarabs until I watched this
Boxer is EXACTLY what Artosis lacks
Boxer had immaculate control early to mid game
Amazing i was just wondering the other day what happened to him
The first esports player I was ever a fan of!
Omg can't believe, sheriff is back
Ahhhhhh holy shit this hit me right in the feels.
this is good news!
Crying out, recalled my collage life
wish july would pop back up
The fuck! Boxer's control is still AMAZING
Amazing how far Boxer got with just one Refinery.
Very nostalgic! He’s so entertaining to watch you kinda don’t mind if he holds off on saying gg just incase he does something interesting last minute!
Is like watching 50 yearsold mike tyson fighting young boxers 😢
