An incredible article, it's revitalized my fanboi-ism in me. I'm watching the classic games as we speak.

I was not expecting to read all of it when I first started, but that was a damn good write up. Fantastic work!

Now to find some time to watch those games :D

I read the whole thread not to repeat anything that was being said b4, the only mention of something similar is a post asking if and if so when will we see this caliber games in SC2.

Im concerned.

I dont know brood war in depth, that is why I would like the opinion of someone who does, but from the things ive seen here on TL and the fact that the BW scene is still "alive and kicking", we could consider these games as equals, (aside from graphics of course).

Is brood war a deeper game where more complex strategies are possible?
Is brood war skill cap higher?
Is WoL a simple and easy game compared to its predecessor?
How was brood war at its beginning?

Im throwing a lot of questions out there. You see, Im concerned. I love Starcraft 2 with all my heart, but when I compare both games and the skill level involved, I cant help but feeling SC2 is a much simpler, pretty and shallow game. I certainly hope im wrong... but... am I?

Fantastic article. Well done. I knew about Savior, but no where near this in depth.

As a person who entered the scene in 2008, this article really told me a lot that I never understood about the savior fanaticism. Thanks for the write-up .

Ma Bonjwa!

Absolutely fantastic read. I still get shivers watching Savior games. Even when he was in his major slump, every ZvT you would always here "Ma Jae Yoon" by the commentators, probably referencing what Savior would've done in that situation.

That was one of the coolest quotes ever.

sigh this article makes me depressed thinking about how good BW scene was... there were truly gods on the battlefield, not like today... maybe give SC2 some time and we'll see real geniuses emerge, but for now it seems to be somewhat lackluster top talent.

You haven't, it is still alive and well and bigger than sc2, there just isn't a foreign BW scene anymore.

Whaaaaat? Plenty of great talent still, how can you imply you watch BW yet say that? The top talent in sc2 are wash out BW players because the geniuses remain loyal to their game. Hydra VS Flash is going to be awesome and JvF might be stale but it's the highest level competition there has ever been. You can't help but be in awe of their series play against each other if you know BW.
Brood War has been a part of our lives for the last 12 years. No, we don't want change.

Come back in a decade after two expansions, and we'll talk about depth of play and level of skill. Give the game time, guys.

As of right now, there's very little doubt that BW is a deeper, more complex, and more developed game than SC2. But none of us know where SC2 will go. It could reach up and become a game in every way as deep and strategic as BW, or it might not.

Questions like this are almost as tiresome as SC2 vs BW threads.
