Thanks for the thread, OP. The problem I have with the new SC2 crowd that make light of Brood War is that they have no idea what it has really accomplished, or what ESPORTS really is. I think what we need to do is clarify once and for all what BW fans mean by ESPORTS. ESPORTS isn't about having tournaments or whose (prize pool) is bigger. ESPORTS is playing video games competitively on television. ESPORTS is being government-sanctioned and culturally-approved.

ESPORTS is filling stadiums with thousands of people.

ESPORTS is a three-year-old girl being your biggest fan.
+ Show Spoiler +

ESPORTS is growing up to be just like your hero.
+ Show Spoiler +

ESPORTS is a shitty TV drama being made about your lifestyle.
+ Show Spoiler +

ESPORTS is fangirls praying for you in the audience.
+ Show Spoiler +

ESPORTS is celebrating your victory after the big game.
+ Show Spoiler +

ESPORTS is having major pimp cred when you win.
+ Show Spoiler +

ESPORTS is being sexy for your fans.
+ Show Spoiler +

ESPORTS is being a rock star.
+ Show Spoiler +

ESPORTS is idolizing and arguing about your favorite players even when you don't understand a word they say.
+ Show Spoiler +

Is SC2 a successful ESPORT already? Is it going to supplant BW as the ESPORT? Do you think we'll have ESPORTS in the West? Do you think ESPORTS in Korea is irrelevant? Be sure you know what you're talking about before you answer.

Edit: Added more.

I am an ESPORTS expert who has been playing competitive BW and following the BW scene for 10+ years.
Pay no mind to the fact that I just joined this site in the last month or so, I show no evidence of ever having played ICCUP, I have made 0 posts regarding BW other than to bash it, and my posts show no indication that I have the slightest knowledge of the scene.
I assure you that I am an ESPORTS expert who knows absolutely all there is to know about ESPORTS and what's best for the future of ESPORTS, which is to completely abandon and forget about aforementioned 10+ years of excellence and culture. Here are my expertly reasons:
1. It's old
2. Its graphics suck
3. It's hard
4. Did I mention it's old and has bad graphics?

who can be arsed when self-proclaimed experts pop-up to argue invalid points and impose their "expertly" opinions onto others?


go play crysis


go play on the wii


yes, neither of those points are of any importance in esports. just look at counter-strike, no one takes css seriously, lans were and still are being cancelled. the cgs was a complete joke.

cs 1.6 is old, graphically and aesthetically unpleasant (at least for new players) to play, much harder to play than source; yet it still prevails because it is what the community want.
