should i stick to Broodwar when theres full transition on SPL or should i continue to play broodwar?

this has been lurking in my mind right now because currently i am playing very casual sc2 game when i am bored and my rank kinda stagnant there and i still gotta practice for my ASL.

i enjoy both game but i enjoy playing broodwar more in longer duration compared to sc2.

so should i follow my idol who is jaedong and playsc2 or should i stick to broodwar !

give me ideas!

well considering you qualified for last ISL you are my current favorite foreign bw player. If you quit bw now I would be pretty crushed...

Unless you're trying to make money out of it, play the game you like the most.

Sc2 has no muta micro, need to focus on creep spread, queen inject lols for macro and larvae and make infestor + banelings .My question is you said it yourself you prefer playing bw at a longer duration than probably you should continue playing bw and even though jaedong is playing sc2 you probably could still ladder up sc2 during your free time . Not much to say that unless you are a total jaedong fan and must follow foot steps in what he does for a living than sc2 is the better choice.

Play which one you have more fun.

Unless your goal is to be popular or something....

Jaedong switched for the money. Unless you are in the money like Jaedong, I don't think there's any reason to switch.

Or you know, to help his team win games since SC2 is more than half of PL now.

But whatever...

Jaedong didnt switch for the money. He switched because proleague is switching.

I would say switch, no matter how much everyone hates it the future is Stacraft 2 not Brood War, so the best decision would be to follow your idol.

BW is a more fun game, though sc2 has some advantageous. For one Masters (D+) is considered amazing rather then terrible. Also there's big events that you can go to and likely people irl who are into the game.

On the other hand, everyone on ladder speaks english, which is really annoying. I tried playing sc2 and every game started like this.

Puppykiller: gg gl
CoolBrotoss: omg you kill puppies!
Puppykiller: Sometimes
CoolBrotoss: I'm going to beat you for the puppies


This convo is shortly followed by some retarded homemade cheese bo and lots of spammed smiley faces (which is soooo funny and original). It makes you really appreciate the fact that on fish server few people know any english sentences other than "fuck you yankee man".
Why would I play sctoo when I can play BW?

If everyone hates it, it's not the future.... lol.

Or are you making some sort of really bad joke that I'm not getting?

If you're being serious though, as if people who stuck to a game that is 12 years old after the advent of the release of retail SC2 care about "the future". If the future of gaming is one that cares more about graphics more than gameplay, then I would rather cease to be a gamer altogether...

Stick with us at BroodWar man.

Also, I love that when I win on Fish people start spamming me with "fuck" and "sex", presumably thinking they're being insulting. Makes me chuckle every time.
