I've seen a very little of BW , I came to late, I tried to watch all the epic matches I've missed but 12 years are too much to see in so little time... But somehow I'm sad. Why? Because you saw something special, and you are now sad because you didnt get to see it all, adn because you/we may never see something as beautiful and full of emotion as BW.
Mignt be that. Maybe SC2 has a chance to become super awesome too... but BW is better. I'm a sc2 player only , and played only a few games of BW but I recognize that BW is better. SC2 is far from BW but maybe one day it'll be as good, maybe.

Farewell Brood War and thank you

GG brood war. I didn't play you much and only started following you 2 years ago, but I've come to love you.

The brood is scattered, the overmind is in a coma, but there's still some creep left.

This game has really been a part of my life. Thank you BW and thank you all BW players, progamers who made me dream and all amators I met during these 10 years.
Zizi yO.

Man, the people that were there at the finals witnessed something magical today. The sheer amount of passion in that room just shows how powerful brood war is. There's no other sport that can match the adoration not of the teams or the players, but the game itself. It was truly special and I thank everyone that I was able to share it with.

It's hitting me so hard right now, feels like I should have thought about the impact of this a little more and flew to Korea to be there and see a match live, just once.
Then seeing all those familiar faces on the stream, even ElkY, aaaahhhhh can't stand it T_T
I was seriously sceaming like a little girl when i saw ElkY and Grrrr. I dont know why. I dont know why i started crying either. It was just too many memories swelling up today.
Why did we not travel? Being at the finals would have been the greatest moment of my life. Instead i sit alone in my apartment crying, screaming and talking to myself like i have done for the last 4 years time and time again watching brood war. Today was the last time i will be this emotional invested in watching a game. End of an era.

Today is the end of a chapter of my life that started over 10 years ago. How depressing for the future, but the great memories will remain forever

I cried a lot especially watching all the plares get on stage I knew like %90 of them I started watching in 08 and have been a fan ever since. I think I have failed a class just because I was trying catch up on vods. The vods are still there and I hope I can find the time to watch the stuff I have missed. I have never been so emotional in my life I feel like my best friend will never be the same, but my friend will always still be there.
Broodwar isn't over for me I think I am going to start playing again and actually get good or atleast somewhat good at the game. Theres the chinese scene its not a proscene per say but a really hardcore casual scene that really loves the game and plays for fun and from what I have seen it looks really good. If there are some good casters I will start watching that.
The Korean pro scene is parhaps dead, but who knows after the turn out of tonight they filled out a huge stadium with fans. There will probably be legends style matches with broodwar every once in a while in proleague and osl. I'm definitely gonna miss watching my favorite broodwar pros playing bw.
No game will compete with the legacy of bw it started in a very special way and will stay in all our our hearts forever.
Broodwar Hwaiting!!!!
Sincerely Andy I love you tl

Broodwar brought me to this website, and different matches I downloaded off youtube to put on my iPod entertained me many times during high school while either being bored in class or on a bus ride. I didn't play BW as much as I would have liked but I was shown Starcraft when both it and I were quite young. I didn't fully realized how much I loved sc until sc2 came out.
I will miss you BW even if I didn't give you all the love you deserve, may you have a worthy successor (my hope for SC2 to be as amazing as BW in the coming decade) to carry on the starcraft legacy for many more years. Your legend will never die!

Good night Broodwar. Although I only started tuning into the Broodwar pro scene in late 2009, I have to say that SC has been a HUGE part in my life, especially now. I remember reading about BoxeR's reign in the 2000's, and waiting for Nal_rA to return... oh, the memories... Even though I only played BW ladder for one year, and only reached D+ on iCCup, I still proudly answer to people that I'm a BW veteran on the SC2 ladder. I will always remember you, BW.
gg yo

Right now I'm playing Whitney Houston's "I will always love you". I feel that it is a pretty good representation of what BW means to a lot of people here.
|
goodbye my dear friend. i had always fun watching you
|
This feeling is so weird, I still can't believe it's the end of the legend ><
Although I didn't watch the first half of the decade, but I was there when flash and jd rise. It was an honor :')

My childhood was largely this game. Therefore, to me, it never dies!
But all due respect to the Korean pro scene... Obviously that will be missed, and hopefully revived as were cars of the 60's in the USA. In 20 years a broodwar disc may be quite valuable as could be a pc with it installed- you never know.
Broodwar is not dead. Entering a dark time, perhaps. But not dead. This thread is perfectly titled.
