[edit] 2v2
eSTRO vs Sparkyz 2v2 on Hunters 08 Proleague 08-29-04
- eSTRO picks Protoss-Zerg and Sparkyz get lucky with Yarnc randoming Zerg. In an epic 2v2 of the ages, eSTRO takes down Sparkyz and play Hunters the way it is normally played on Battle.net, with players building up large armies as opposed to the Korean style of just massing ground units. This also is one of the few teams a Zerg-Zerg 2v2 team lost.
