Gotta progress and it's only reasonable that they move on. Now we will be seeing the last BW OSL's soon most likely two, three before they make the switch. For the record, it's not like Blizzard can turn off the lans of people who still want to have BroodWar Tournaments, I promise they don't have a huge switch that they can turn off to shut down everything. BW tournaments themselves will exist as long as people want to play in them. I take it youre not a frequent reader of the forum if you cinserly belive that Blizzard cant shut down tournamnts. If they start to charge money for broadcasting BW (something theyve started to do, just that havnt got any money yet ^^), some organisations could get a hard time broadcasting -> no broadcast -> no sponsors -> no moneys -> no leagues/teams. I think, as I said in the previous post, that this is just a move to strangle the BW community to force it over to SC2. If Blizzard keeps on going the way theyve done until now I wouldnt say moving to SC2 would be progress as you would want it to be! Sorry for straying a bit off-topic. | ||

I voted 2-4 because of all the uncertainties going on with Kespa/Blizzard/Gretech right now, might as well be only 1 more, or if things get solved, 10+ | ||

Still I voted 2-4 left, SC2 will have nothing to do with it though, but I really think the betting scandal is going to kill off BW as well as the current Kespa BS. | ||

So I hope for 10+. I don't really know what's the most probable answer though. I don't think SC2 would replace BW naturally, but with Blizzard killing BW it could happen... Some people seem to forget what happens with CSS and CS. The gameplay changes are way smaller than in BW-SC2, the graphics difference is much bigger (since the SC2 graphics are equal if not worse for the spectator), and CSS is even more compatible. And even so, CS is still the predominant game. If SC2 replaces BW it's not because it's better, it's because Blizzard is going to kill BW. | ||

Seriously though, SC1 is just so much more fun to watch than SC2. I just watched Moletrap cast some SC1 games, and he's the last SC1 commentator out there. But he's even screaming as he sees July's lings run around ForGG's firebats, and you rarely see that in SC2, which is mostly just 1 huge battle and its over. God I hope threre's a lot more OSLs because im gonna miss SC1 to death T.TTTTTTT | ||
