BW to watch, SC2 to play.
SC2 is way ahead of BW considering the game longevity. It takes years (and one extension) for BW to actually becomes what it is : the perfect balanced RTS game with high level players providing the fans maximum pleasure.
SC2 is already showing us some nice battles, and the best is still to come. Have faith my friends !
It's just different and that's where the fun part is, acknowledging the differences without judging.

I think BW is a better game in almost every respect.

But I will tell you what gives me hope for SC2 as a E-Sport.

It does seem to have a very dynamic skill ceiling... there are so many layers of even "great" players. I won't go into recent Invitationals that have shown this, but even from my play, I know I'm mid Diamond- but have a friend who is #1 Diamond. He is many fold better than I am. He entered a ladder game to get into a TL tourny, and got owned. They guy who beat him successively got owned... on up to players like iNcontrol and Orb, who are very good will lose usually to players like Cauthon Luck and TLO. Then you have your White-rA, Dimaga, IdrA and NonY types... and we have all seen what some Koreans can occasionally do above that.

Long story short, this bodes VERY well for this game as a competitive sport. Differences in skill seem to be very clear and minimally dependent on race.

Not in the same league as BW yet, obviously.

BW is the best game ever made. SC2 is one of many good games and will probably remain just that. Also it looks purty.

Brood War is the greatest RTS ever made. Can Starcraft II match that? I don't think so.

Who came up with this poll? Are the obvious results of significant concern?

SC2 will win by a 5:1 margin or so.

I vote SC:BW, without having played SC2 (computer can't run it anyways).

Right now, it's Brood War > SC2 by a long shot. I might even cancel my pre order for SC2...

Lets see, I've been playing BW all week, and I haven't played SC2 in almost 3 weeks.
Definitely SC:BW. I can't quite put my finger on it, but SC2 isn't nearly as satisfying to play as SC:BW.
I have a feeling I will watch more SC2 than play it. But I'll be watching and playing BW.
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

yes I agree, its too early for sc2 to compete with the king of all games, I'm sure sc2 will never replace sc, so i guess the best possible outcome is that there'll be two games at a time, I love SC!!!!

I'm playing quite a bit of SC2 and enjoying the hell out of it, but easy vote for BW. I can think of multiple single days I spent on BW that are more awesome than all the time I've spent on SC2. Both are awesome, though, for me.

I can't pick either of them, Starcraft 2 looks very promising in terms of fun play and casual gaming (i've played several hundreds of coop vs comp games with friends in SC1) but Brood war is much better in terms of competative play. You just can't outshine something as perfect as Brood War.
