I've gained a new appreciation for Brood War as a game from this match. I think I just needed commentary from someone who was willing to explain it a bit - that was s skill that SC2 casters picked up that I dunno if BW ever had. That being said, the circlejerk of BW > SC2 still taints my perspective a fair amount. But I understand where the appeal came from, and the fact that it's so hard to call a fight is something that I really do find interesting.

yes ..
Stim is a lot stronger in SC1 though but I think the SC2 marine with their hp increase MIGHT be better.
Also it's easier to mass-produce marines in SC2 and the marine counters in terran and protoss are worse than they were in SC1.
but marines were so shit in sc1 when it comes to facing toss though
Deep six was such a fun build though
I remember a forgg game of that. Was it Kal he was facing ? i forgot

well, in the context of the games, sc2 marines just crush sc1 marines in their utility. they are literally the central unit in 90% of terran builds.
Bio was only key in TvZ from my limited knowledge, and even then going Mech was a popular choice.
This is correct. There was one legendary game where Boxer rushed down iloveoov with bio and that's basically the only time you'll see medics in TvT. There was a TvP allin which used biomech, but outside of that you wouldn't really see medics and stim in TvP either.

Meh. There's like 1-2 (or maybe just one) that are/is actually being a jerk about it. Observing that they are rusty is not necessarily asshole-age. Most enjoyed it, while laughing at the mis-micro's. (All those sair deaths for instance.)

The most I can remember of ForGG from broodwar was him losing to Kal when he made scouts.

forgg vs kal on tiamat in groups when he won his MSL was a sick game Actually, like all the games forgg and kal played in that tournament were sick

Great showmatch, loved every bit of it. One more thing I miss from BW was the design of the air units, dogfights between wraiths and mutas or the rare cases of scouts was so entertaining.

dogfights tended to be either muta/scourge vs muta/scourge or muta/scourge vs sair.
