(Vote): ICCUP

(Vote): Official Battle.net gates

With the new korean servers trend just a little poll to know where do you play Broodwar nowadays?

You can also explain why you chose this one rather than another and specify what are the qualities and flaws to help the tl.net members to make a choice.

I think for the most part, super casuals play on the official bnet servers, casual-competitives (D- to C-) play on iCCup, and the more competitive players(C and up) play on brain/fish.

Fish because I don't like waiting 5-10 minutes for a game.

I play on Fish. All of the top iccup admins are abusers, imho.
There is a negative relationship between a forum user's post count and intelligence; conversely, there is a positive relationship between a user's post count and self-selection.

Depends on the mood. Most of the time I prefer ICCUP. But sometimes Im full of piss and vinegar and wanna challenge some koreans. Only to get humbled

No it's just a lan emulator (like hamachi) where you can play games for fun like some epic 4v4 bgh

On topic: I play on both iccup and garena. I plan to add fish to that list.

I voted iccup at the end tho.

idk about if garena keeps stats, it's a hamachii like system (similar to the chinese VS server if you ever played that back in the day).

in terms of skill from worst to best in my opinion it's Garena -> Europe ->UsEast -> Asia -> ICCUP -> UsWest (mainly for op clanby or other korean team channels) -> Fish -> BrainClan

I don't really think there is much of a Korean server playing trend. Op Teamliquid on the Abyss still has a ton of people in the evening, even some of the people who said they were going over to the Fish Server.

Iccup because I haven't figured out how to make the Fish thing work yet and I am too lazy to do so.

Ow yeah and I am bad.

I play on Bnet nowadays mostly BGH and Fastest due to LAN latency being too laggy for me atm.

ICCUP mainly because the average skill in Fish is bit higher than my own skill, and because I hate having to switch languages so I can communicate with the koreans :<

Though if you're over C-C+ Fish is heaven

I only play BW at LANs so i guess "other" is the correct choice.

I play on fish only, because I can host and it doesn't take ten minutes to find a game. It's harder, but that means I'm going to get better in a good way. You don't have to know korean at all.
