meh, looking at all these people and all this excitement one has to ask himself why this had to end?

anyway, thanks for this article, it is a nice finish for all the great tl OSL writeups.

By any chance does the staff or anyone else have it in them to create a list of the top 25 osl games like was done for the mbc game memorial thread?

As someone who wasn't around then, I can watch all the finals, but it's hard to find some of the truly legendary games obscured within the brackets of the starleagues, and that list was really helpful.

Damn it, I may never forgive myself for missing so much of Brood War's early history, but I did see it to its end. It's still kind of unthinkable for me that it's over, that the limits will never be pushed any further.

Still feels like it had only just begun for me, and now it's over already. It's sad that I missed out on so many good times.

Great memories, great fun. Starcraft Brood War will stay in my heart as possibly the greatest game ever made.

Sorry for the only-BW-fans in here.
I hope there will still be some BW articles. The TL BW articles were the best out of all esports articles across games and websites I've seen. I read those with excitement although I had not touched BW until recently and I hope there will still be new articles of this quality. I'm still waiting for something like this to be written about SC2. (It's my impression that SC2 articles seem rather short and less detailed than the BW ones).
Thanks, TL writers! :-)

GG. Thanks for everything bw. You'll never be forgotten as something so epic and surreal, ever.

"you either die a hero, or live long enough to watch yourself become the villain."

Your still a hero, the catch with broodwar is that it'll never die, it's special like that.

It hasn't suck in... but when it does I think I'll just break down.. you've no idea how great BW has been to me since I finally got into the scene when I discovered it in 08 although I knew about professional BW before that. I really wish I had discovered the beginnings of BW and TL (especially when Jaedong first came about) but those 4 years.. man oh man I'm so thankful for them.

I won't fucking forget you ^_^
