It´s just that an Era of professional BW in Korea has ended and thus the foreign scene will most likely collapse as well. Of course people can still play the game. but there is a major difference between some people playing a game and a healthy international scene with top level gaming in the pro section.

Goodbye Broodwar, i still like you more (;
Broodwar for life!

How can you be a professional if there is no money. Your sentence doesn't make sense. Also, public B.net servers are trash spammed by bots, there are usually no players, and when there are, a majority are hackers.

Only decent alternative is Fish.

Even if BW will not be played competitively in Korea anymore when ProLeague ends, it will still be remembered as the origin with which it started all. The legacy will live on.

After spending 14 years with starcraft and broodwar, I truely feel a hole left inside me knowing it is gone. SC2 has been nowhere near as enjoyable as broodwar, and sadly I dont think anything ever will be. Such a sad end to a really LONG chapter.

Since 2000 this game has been an important part of my life. But, the pro scene was only part of that. I'll still play.

Too many memoires to mention them all,good games everyone throughout all these years and see you around.

A rather sad day indeed. I look forward to reliving the best days of a bygone era. There are many VODs I want to rewatch. Maybe I'll start tonight. Farewell dear friend, none will be able to take your place.

This really makes me sad, so many years playing and watching bw. It is truly the best RTS.
Brood War is the best RTS that has ever been created.

I was almost crying in the end of the OSL Final Saturday night.

I started playing Brood War 12 years ago in the attic of a friend (the only one having several computer with LAN at the time) and I have tons of memories related to Starcraft 1. Even if I started following the pro-scene way later, Brood War was a huge part of my teenage years.
Brood War and the Korean scene have made eSport what it is today, and we shall never forget the best game ever.

Good bye Brood War :'(
