It sounds like everyone who participated in WCG before about 2008 had a really great time and has incredibly strong memories from it. It's too bad that the organization went to total shit and became a huge joke in the later years, they had a neat thing going.

The idea of representing your country is a cool angle we don't see enough in these games.

Really hope a proper organization starts something similiar up again...


Great blog btw.

Played WCG Nordic qualifiers in like 2004 for BW, was so fun spending all those months leading up to it making specific builds for each map. Had this really crazy PvZ build for korhal with proxy gate and proxy forge blocking both entrances, and then when I actually did it vs Trek I managed to trap my own zealot I think (I thiiiink thats what I did, cant remember exactly just remember it was a very big fuck up :D)



I remember Kingdom (I think?) doing the exact same thing on that map and GGing as soon as he saw it stuck. Great times.

Yeah, my gateway was in a different spot tho.. Cant remember if it got stuck or if I forgot to build it or something equally dumb haha

It was like this really bizarre build where I proxied a gateway at his front choke, then proxied a forge at the backdoor (which blocked lings)
8D


Like the shortest game in BW ? Then one with July i thinK ?

Good writeup! I missed all of WCG's glory days so I can't say much and don't feel the connection like some on here do. Either way, it's still a loss but considering how they got worse as the years progressed till closing, maybe it was for the best?
