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! :-)

The love isn't as strong for it I would guess. No offense ment to the SC2 writers... just doesn't seem on the same level.

Farewell Broodwar,

I caught you at the beginning and the end. You will be missed.

It takes the shoulders of giants to see farther. I hope that esports lives up to everything you so beautifully set up for us.

lol for a second I thought this was a necro and then I realized I'd clicked on the front page

Bye bye BW. I barely knew you, but the little I've seen has brought me great joy.

"Some say that, one day, Brood War will rise again."

We all know that it will not, so why pretend? I somehow feel it belittles Broodwar when one makes fun of it in saying it could rise again. Because it has an ending makes it valuable. If it were endless, one could not appreciate it correctly. Rather lets thank for how it ended: With a great tournament which wrote esports history.

got into the scene too late to care much about BW, but can still appreciate the history, the names, and what it did for e-sports as a whole. the story would make a book and/or LEGO tie-in set...

Thanks for the writeup l10f. Where other TL writers abandoned BW a long time ago, you and a handful of others stuck to it til the very end. Your efforts are greatly appreciated!
