    Hey guys,

    Screplays is good for general replays (good sort feature by race), but what are the best sites for say gold or diamond level replays?

    Sorting by race would be a bonus (I'm looking for great TvsP to study the builds)

    Thanks!

    I would call rank 1 diamond games expert but whatev.

    I don't think such a site exists since it'd get very few hits. I would try getting more SC2 friends and asking them for replays. I know I share some replays with one of my mates... it should work out if you have several friends who are willing to swap replays. Just be sure to swap defeats as well.

    Here's some sites:

    http://starcraft2reps.com/
    http://sc2rep.net/
    http://www.sc2replayed.com/
    http://www.gamereplays.org/starcraft2/replays.php?game=33

    The best one is a korean site with tons of top tier reps, but I don't remember it and I'm not at my pc atm so can't find it....
    The one I use most is also not in the list because I forgot it's name too >.<

    There's also a program some guy at the teamliquid forums wrote which uses a few sites and makes a database for replays, and you can download by pushing one button straight into yur replay folder. It's like the most awsome program for replays I've seen recently but i don't remember its name and doing a fast search over the TL forums didn't get me the thread...

    Anyway, these sites are good enough to get replays from...

    generally when there's a tournament, you can find all replays bundled together on sites like teamliquid and gosugamers.. that way you got games from all races and players like huk(protoss), qxc(terran) and dimaga(zerg) which are all top players ofc.

    Are you watching HDStarCraft replay commentary on youtube? They're great!

    Commentaries are not replays though... They're generally more entertaining(some are also educational like Idra's or Day9's) and they don't give you the ability to study a player's gameplay and strategies. Yeah, HD is one of the good casters, but a replay is better to learn from...

    Ok I'm back home for a single day, checking my favourites...

    -http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=171828 The TL thread of the program I told you that snatches reps easily, it's quite awsome...
    -I think I removed the korean rep site from my favs because it was a little annoying to use due to not understanding anything in there... :S
    -You can check for good VODs in these 2 sites too:
    http://sc2hive.com/replays/index.php and www.sc2casts.com

    Doh, my favourites are a mess, I can't find any rep sites there... It's been a while since I downloaded reps to study due to lack of time... If I happen upon it again I'll update this thread...

    Cheers
