I... I had feels.
All this while an edgy nostalgia song of a long time crush only mostly moved past played in the background.

Very well written, that spoke to something in me. SC2 has been part of my life for almost 6 years now: you captured a lot of the feeling and sense of that intimately linked past perfectly.

This actually made me tear up. Starcraft has been a significant part of my life for almost 7 years and I know for many people, longer. I know I will have to move on eventually, or the scene will someday totally die out, but its become hard to imagine on a personal level. This brought me face to face with that reality and its a hard thing to come to grips with. More than anything, however, this made me realize how infinity thankful I am for the game and the scene and specific people that make it what it is. Starcraft is a family and I am a brother. Thank you so much for this mizenhauer, it touched me.

I think no matter what happens, even if life diffuses the family and we drift apart, as long as we come home for Thanksgiving & Christmas, we'll be alright.

gsl may end, but starcraft won't

in fact it's really hard nowadays to find any truly dead game, let alone the successful ones

civ1 predates starcraft by almost a decade and there's still a passionate community around it to this very day

starcraft is one of the most successful games in history - my bold prediction is as long as people can play video games under any form, there will be starcraft

such thin skin here user gets warned about what is true. most of the pros are gonna retire very soon, viewership is at an all time low. GSL in korea in 2020 is very optimistic.

There's still plenty of money in the scene, and I don't think its that optimistic. Do you think after all Blizzard has invested they're just going to stop in 2 years? I don't find that likely.

I mean, at the end of the day the best finals was Leenock vs Jjakji where Jjakji used a floating rax to find burrowed lings. Hands down.

Might I ask who Jiwoo is? Why do I feel like a complete idiot for not knowing who that is?.

plenty of money in the scene? low viewership corresponds to less advertising sponsorship which would directly impact prize pool and team salaries. compare to DOTA where the prize pool is in the millions and I'm assuming LOL is similar. you can just look at the size of the LR for blizzcon finals. much smaller now then it was back in 2013
