If you love Starcraft just a quick reminder that the Korean Brood War scene is still going strong, and is now getting bigger. BW is a near perfect game and it's clear with how they handled SC2 "Blizzard" is not going to make anything close to BW ever again. I would highly recommend checking it out if you love Starcraft. For starters, Artosis casts a pro-level ladder game every day on this channel:

If you like that, the main BW tournament is called ASL and happens a couple times a year. The next one should be starting relatively soon.



> BW is a near perfect game

It has a lot of pacing and quality-of-life issues.


The pacing is what makes it an amazing watchable esport with crucial timings.


You're bringing back memories of Jaedong :-))


He's still playing! He is often in the ASL.


I’d love a brood war remaster


... They already made one.

And it crowded out every historical playthrough video of the original Brood War on YouTube, such that full playthroughs of the original are impossible to find.

And so, through grasping at the straws of rehashing old stuff they can't make anew, they ruin the old stuff that was good. :D
