why can't both games co-exist in the leagues?

Jaedong for OSL and MSL this season wil secure him as the best player in history. And I would REALLY like to see some epic last SC tournament in the world with huge prize money etc. I do think for one that SC is feeling its age, and it does sadden me alot, but SC had a lifetime like no other.

Is the question going to be answered who the best player of all time is? (Or is it already? =o)

This is the next logical step really. SC 2 is supposed to be "the shit" and the mainstream crowd is always attentive to "the shit of the time" and not much else. If OSL and the other major companies don't switch their incomes won't grow and may even shrink as people become more focused on SC 2.

But only time will tell.... And Blizzard...... Fuck....

Edit: Roger.... don't speak that way. Just... don't....

i think this is too soon to call the end of BW, imo there will be at least another OSL, the launch of the game means a lot of patching and that can be quite bad for this kind of big tournaments so i wont call the end of BW till the beginnig of 2011.

I find the fact that the korean esport side is endorsing the product a good sign for the future of SC2 as a competitive esport game.

Oh man. I did not think the end of BW would come this soon.



Im curious what the brood war pros even think about SC2? What happens if after a year they've already hit the skill ceiling? Honestly all we had were a few months of beta, if OSL switches were going to have houses full of people who are playing professionally with coaches, and how a game will evolve is really difficult to predict.

Maybe it will go swimmingly, maybe theyll do 1 or 2 OSLs on SC2 then switch back if it doesnt work out.
Those small maps were like a boxing match in a phone booth.

It's so much more difficult to control units in Brood War. In contrast to SC2, or rather going from SC2 to Brood War, it's a big pain in the ass. I endorse this switchover. RTS is evolving. Good-bye, former best RTS of all time.

Yeah easier to control may make the game more fun to play (for you) but that's not the same thing as making it a better spectator sport. Harder to control meant higher skill ceiling (still not reached) which was a good thing for long term competitiveness. As fun as SC2 is I'm not sure it's ready to replace BW at the highest level. If this is accurate, I guess we'll see.

man what did I say, This whole BW programer betting shit was all part of a big overarching plan to ruin BW e sports and help nudge people onto sc2. Now the big corporations are going along with the plans whether they are in on it or not.

btw, I have never been able to finish a video on your website artosis. IT NEVER Loads properly. can you get the coding fixed so it's like youtube or something?
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Why? Because he talks mad shit?

That's what I like about him. The only thing that really bothered me about the SC pro scene and the gamers was their completely PC answers to ABSOLUTELY everything. People like Flash saying someone like "junni" played a super awesome game in.

The reality is that Flash raped him 50 ways to Sunday. One day I wish he would say something like that.

"My opponent played like trash." The end.
