That actually looks like a fun unit, though, kind of sort of like a baneling. Of course subject to a lot of balancing. | ||

Have to admit I laughed in his other recent thread when he said he got invited to play in Korea in 1999 but the email went to spam so he didn’t see it.Now he’s complaining about new maps, when he quit ladder ‘Green Valleys’ was in the ladder map pool. This guy is entertaining, I hope he sticks around. | ||

Starcraft 2 with its monologic playstyle, fast speed and exaggerated purpose of mechanics promotes exactly this thrill of speed. | ||

I don't miss this exact thing for sure. lol Maps back in the days were ridiculous. We grew in our knowledge, game sense, and in many other aspects to know better. Have you tried to play on LT or some other old-school map vs capable Terran player recently? I haven't been #1 on the ladder in the previous century but trust me - you don't want to play this competitively. As for SC and SC2 and your wish to feel more like an art - I believe the introduction of replays back in the days played a huge role. It helped greatly in detecting hackers as well... Remember how 15-20 years ago when we saw an FPVod of some progamer everyone who was able to download it was going crazy? Right now we got video streaming technology. Anyone can watch their favorite progamer all day long from his/her point of view and learn from there. Who wants to get back to the stone age? | ||

Thx for making these threads, it’s so much fun reading about the good old days of brood war. I’d give my nutsack to re-live those days (With today’s knowledge of the game of course :devil: ) | ||

Fun post, but I cannot agree with anything you wrote, and I started playing BW not long after you quit, around ~2000. | ||
