oh broodwar elitists fans, why won't you ever go away?

if sc2 is full of gimmic, imbalance game, then we wouldn't have such a diverse racial balance at the top level (which shifts depends on meta changes) and we wouldn't have such consistent players on winning tourneys


Are there really that many of us BW "elitists" making these sorts of claims? Or are you you seeing one or two and then generalizing to the entire group.

Pretty much all I see in the last 4 or 5 pages is discussion of the games, how the KeSPA players stack up vs themselves and how they might compare to the current SC2 pros, and some discussion about IdrA's skill level at the end of his BW days. I'm not sure I saw A post calling SC2 imbalanced or gimmicky.

I didn't generalize the entire broodwar fans as elitists, im talking specifically toward those elitists

I didn't quote, but I saw at least 2-3 posts saying something like "Sc2 is not broken, it's not balanced. Happy now?". If that's not being elitists I don't know what is

BW pros may not instantly become better than GSL players, but they are better showmen thats for sure... that presentation was some good entertainment especially Leta's backflip lol


Yea, you hear a lot of people saying bw pros don't show emotion and they're just mechanical robots who win everything. That's part true, but they have a fun side to them also.


Thanks to the way media works in the west, a lot of people equate "having a personality" to "being a dick". You can be as interesting/outgoing/funny as much as you want, but unless you're occasionally a dick, you're boring.

BW progamers definitely have interesting personalities that show quite often, but they're almost universally nice. I bet a ton of people think White-Ra and Sheth are boring as well.

They've always picked Flash to play and his 1-1 just not in ACE matches . There have been like 2 ACE matches as well so no big deal .
