Been watching proleague a lot lately on Sayle's stream after I realized that BW's days are numbered. Even though I haven't played BW since a while ago when I tried and got rolled lol, I find that current games and previous ones are always epic. Mech TvP or bio TvZ flash style are really interesting to watch because some units in the matchup can be imba but overcome and it makes me sad that BW's time is coming to pass as well as the fact that SCII units get nerfed instead of buffed as fast as something that may be a bit imba is discovered.

It's a bit saddening to think I'll never get to see flash play a TvZ which is one of my favorite matchup in both BW and SCII. So why am I writing this blog? I dunno but after watching the latest BW TvP game involving Iris and seeing lots of storms and stasis on tanks and such, I feel like I should try to get into BW again but timing isn't the greatest :/

Assuming you're not Korean, foreign BW has been huge since Dec.2009-Jan 2010.

hmm is it? I know I've heard that foreign BW was getting bigger but they say you learn from the best(aka Koreans in this case lol).

BW will never die, in our hearts and in the ladders that exist outside the proscene. There's tons of D players on iCCup. Read some guides and give it a try! You have nothing to lose.

Actually, the major problem I encountered last time on iCCup was that I wasn't able to get many matches going. It was a challenge trying to get games going because I couldn't find many. I think I got like 2 games or at best 3 when I tried. A TvP where I went bio even though I knew hts/reavers murder bio, a TvP where I went mech and did a strong push but I got pushed back and lost due to Arbiters and their OP Stasis lol and a TvT where my opponent just dropped my main with tanks+goliath and reduced it to nothing ><

I think I'll swing by op teamliquid on iccup, will need to set it up again I think though so maybe I'll try later tonight or something.
