Hello,
Welcome to the StarCraft:Brood War Buildcard Project
What is a Buildcard?
As a graphic designer and a StarCraft fan, I'm trying to organize Build Orders information on a visual manner. With this approach, I think people will get more interested in Build Order checking, studying or basically will feel more comfortable consulting information regarding Build Orders, since the vast majority of time this kind of information is presented on Excel/Google Docs and players can get overwhelmed by wall texts with limited format options.
If people is interested, my goal is to create almost every "useful" build and distribute them on each race.
After that, I could relate them via links, create more specific "cards" like scout information for example. If the initiative gets lot of attention, I would be interested in partnering with someone and even creating a website, where you can filter these builds, navigate more freely and basically build a community around strategy.

Where can I find these?
I've set a MIRO Board HERE
MIRO is a team collaboration whiteboard. I'll be dumping new cards there as soon as I create them.
In the mid-term or long-term, I'll try to organize and filter them based on different aspects (now is only race), and maybe create more cards, not only based on Build Orders, but also Roadmaps, etc.
Do you need help?[/i]
Oh yes. I'm still looking for:
- Expert players to guide me through the builds. Some entries on Liquipedia (my source) lack information, or don't follow any specific format, which is quite important if I want to create equivalent cards.
- Also find a roadmap on which builds would be more important and create those first.
Any suggestion will be well received!
Thanks!

Past Updates

Update v.0.1 - 29/11/20
- Cleaned the whole thread so newcomers can understand the whole project without getting overwhelmed.
- MIRO Board: ENTER HERE
This will help us a lot on the short-mid term. Since I'll be adding more and more cards in the future, it will get hard to keep up with new additions, etc. If you sigN up on MIRO, you will be able to see all cards and navigate through them (Zoom In, Zoom Out, Export images, etc). Right now there's not enough content to start making groups or dividing the builds in different categories (only races), but if the thing gets bigger and bigger and the plan for a website gets delayed, this can be a good way to keep things organized and easy to read. - NEW CARD - Bunker Rush VS Zerg
- NEW SECTION ADDED - Scout Adaptation.
- General polishing, fixing some "bugs" and reworking old cards with new additions, etc.
- Still looking for a group of volunteers helping with writing, guiding, advising. If you are interested, just PM me.
