Howl for BroodWar


Howl into the empty chat channels,
Echoed by the rusted game panels.
Where have all the wolves gone
And why have all the greats withdrawn?

Howl toward Jon747 and Nevake,
Hear nothing in return over a still lake.
Has the eternal rushing tide
Finally taken its last stride?

Howl at the oppressive dam
—Blizzard's latest lamb—
Which stops the water flowing.
Are we to give up on all we spent sewing?

Howl into the nostalgic past,
Say you knew it could never last.
Where have all the wolves gone
And why have all the greats withdrawn?

Howl at the lamb's dawn
Who's no match for our impressive brawn.
Why starve the greater,
What could be the plan of our creator?

Howl for the pain of being forsaken
And the loyalty that was once unshaken.
What do we have left
After the world's most terrible theft?

Howl into your dreams
—The only place BroodWar still streams.
Where have all the wolves gone
And why have all the greats withdrawn?

****
LEGEND!! LEGEND!!

5/5 chef.
due to issues with blizzard, i have refused to buy sc2 and still currently boycotting
still get on iccup to get owned by koreans, but it is great when i win games.
in the beta period of sc2, in all the games combined, never have i gained the satisfaction of winning an epic BW game against ppl on iccup.

sc2 just doesn't have that factor...
the other day, i duked out with this korean for 30+ minutes in z v p and i came out on top in FS.
i couldnt help but stand up, do a little fist pump and be like YEAHHHHH WHAT NOW BITCH!! >_<
i love bw, it will never die for me

I don't really care if SC2 can be a good game or not, I just don't like that Blizzard is babying it. SC2 has to become a wolf in its own right and then if necessary they can tear each other to shreds. Right now Blizzard is trying to break BroodWar's legs so that SC2 can beat it up and gain a false sense of accomplishment. That's no way to raise a child, no sir.

Lol nice way of describing it, and that's kinda why I'm yet to buy SC2.
I'm still waiting to see what happens concerning kespa and PL and shit.
If they don't let BW live on, Idk if I can live knowing I gave blizzard another $60 to further bury BW

This reminded me of times not long passed, when we could all enjoy people like Nony, Ret, Nongmin, Kawai, TT1 and more streaming brood war. During that time i was like: ok, i guess i will watch a game or two today, but now i would kill for the quality bw stream like that...

Hail to the great King,
12 years unbeaten in the ring.
Shall the weaker bow,
cause it's a cheap money cow!
(no offense)
Brood War is the best RTS that has ever been created.

And the loyalty that was once unshaken.
What do we have left
After the world's most terrible theft?

Loved that part, 5/5
Brood War For Life!
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

Howl for Brood War streams.
They are a thing of your dreams.
Time for grudge match schemes...
A build is not a guess, an estimation or a hunch, a feeling, or a foolish intuition. A build is a dependable, unwavering, unarguably accurate, portrayer of your ambition.
