I never knew the BW pro scene existed until I was introduced into sc2. However I do remember BW back in 2000 and 2001 as a young teen. I regret never sticking around for the next 10 years while something amazing was happening.

I feel so happy and lucky to have been a part of this. So much explosive awesomeness that most people will never even get to experience. I think a celebratory alcohol is in order!

Thank you Nuke! Thank you BW

Sad Sad Sad

BW first was my child hood. I remember obsessing over every detail every day about it. Telling my dad about how Zerg worked as we walked around the neighborhood lol.

BW second was always the go to game. I joined TL in 2004, I cant even remember how I found the site, but I did. I loved the site.

BW third was my first year of college game, after a few years off I got back into it. It was so much watching the Jaedong vs Bisu games in 2009. And the overall rise of Flash.

Ive recently picked up the game again, just for memory's sake and cuz SC2 depresses the hell out of me with how much that game still lacks in fun.

Favorite BW watching moment, Stayed up til 3 to watch Jaedong vs Flash at a UAT tech school on a 80 inch 1080p Projector. I went with a friend who barely knew the game, we had about 40 ppl there screaming and going nuts it was so sick.

RIP,

My hope here is either

SC2 magically gets fixed

OR

Someone comes out with a F2P RTS that takes all the amazing principles of BW and fits them into a modern RTS.
