I hope brood war never dies. I never play matches but I just enjoy it as a viewer.
It won't. It's like the vinyl record industry of gaming
Same here. I'm horrid at RTS but I that makes it even more enjoyable considering I know how hard it is!

There's something enthralling about watching brood wars. I wonder if this is how sports fans feel.
Going well, it's fun to watch. Especially with good commentary.
Nice to get up at 9am and have some SC to watch. Thanks Arty
I think the only thing Brood War lacks is better prize money. This way maybe we could get more people interested in the game.
Unfortunately there aren’t many younger players getting into BW outside of South Korea, and even there it’s not bringing in much new blood. I would guess your average BW player is 30-40 years old at this point. Hopefully some rich Saudi oil tycoon’s son will reinvigorate the prize purses in the coming years.
@@gasstationpeanuts1814i started playing at 19 years old, but bro, it's sooo hard. Watching these gods I cannot believe how good they are and how many thousands of hours they have.
Broodwar has a very sustainable prize money amount. Yes it's low but I'd rather have a stable scene rather than a scene with huge prize pools where if one day the company that owned the game or some rich billionaire got bored the entire scene would collapse.
I think the biggest problem for Broodwar getting more people interested in the game is that people think of Broodwar as being insanely difficult (which it is) and having the most skill (which it does). That turns off some people.
The people it doesn't turn off if they decide to play the game will go onto ladder and play against smurfs that are so much better than them they don't learn anything or play against the cheesiest things you can imagine. If they decide to watch they might notice really obvious mistakes and think Broodwar players aren't that good even if the reason why broodwar players can look so bad is because the game is so hard in the first place.
@@gasstationpeanuts1814 There was actually a BW tournament in Saudi recently (Gamers8) that had a bigger prize pool than ASL lmao. I think Broodwar should aim to get invited to tournaments like the Gamers8 tournament where you have like 10 different games and you might get someone that wouldn't normally look at Broodwar looks at Broodwar. All it took for me was one TH-cam video in my recommended to start watching an hour of Broodwar a day, I'd think a whole tournament right next to all the other biggest Esports has to be getting some viewers into Broodwar long term.
I find the name Women'sChoice incredibly hilarious.
Brood War is a beautifully designed game, and will never look old. Yes, 2D and all, but everything in it is so atmospheric and elegant. Then Brood War has great music on all sides, also iconic sound effects and great and quotable unit talks.
Then Brood War had such a fantastic story. Dark Origin (the secret mission) alone changed by perception of the scope of life and things forever, Great compelling storyline and well crafted world.
And finally: outstanding gameplay, unique units, not generic marine, tank, airplane stuff of the good side and the evil side. Protoss looks beautiful, zerg looks menacing, terran looks organized. And the balance between these totally different factions are pitch perfect, 20 years and they still didn't find a loophole that makes one race overpowered.
Small negatives are the few unusable units (I really want to see more Guardians, Devourers, Queens, BCs, Ghosts with nukes, Scouts and Dark Archons with mind control) and some annoying pathfinding stuff, but even these are part of the charm now.
Brood War to RTS is like classic Doom to FPS. It's maybe ancient, but will never gets out of fashion.
Part of the "unusable units" is just because the current meta makes those units not worth the investment. But that meta is starting to shift. Dark Archons are getting more popular for Maelstrom to immobilize large groups of Zerg units, so it can fight the Muta or Hydra/Lurker/Defiler meta. I know you specified mind control, but that can also be used on high value units to essentially snag a free kill with them for energy. Imagine the day we see a mind controlled defiler turn the tide of a battle in pro play. People will start putting it in their back pocket. Queens are getting more popular in order to fight the large mech Terran armies and whittle down the Protoss armies with Broodling. If Queens continue to be popular, Scouts will come back because they are SUPER strong for anti-air. Corsairs just harass but are hard to land kills on queens. Scouts are fast enough to chase down and kill Queens or make them waste their broodling energy on ensare. Scouts just suck at ground targeting and are too expensive for current usage. As the meta adapts, some of these useless units will start to see their value increase and get them back into rotation.
Just like we saw here, a quick carapace strat from 16 years ago came back and almost made the opponent pause on their strategy because they had unexpected opposition.
Dark origin changed your perception of life... How ?
9:45 LOL, glitching
I used to only watch SC2 pro matches. But slowly I started getting interested in Brood War with the release of remastered and learning about ASL.
It took a while but now I love watching Brood War. I find SC2 kind of boring now and I can't explain why but Brood war is just more interesting!
For me, it's the fact that it's so hard to play well. Even pros make mistakes while also pulling off these insanely skillful moves. It's how important the attention economy is, how a player can never be on top of everything, so mind games really feel like mind games if you can force your opponent to stretch their attention beyond what they can handle.
One thing that makes brood war more enjoyable for me to watch is how the armies move. In sc2, every unit moves in unison because you can put them all in one control group, but in brood war units are controlled in groups of 12 so fights end up looking a lot more dynamic and messy
Every. Single. Day!
Appreciate you casting these games so much. Been playing more broodwar lately due to your content.
I have never felt old before today when I heard “That build is one of the oldest builds out there… that build is from like 2006 is or something” … I had been playing StarCraft for probably 8 years by 2006.
the invisible man strikes again!
Brood War is like the Atari 2600. It outlives its own successors.
"I do it for you, I do it for broodwar" "Also I have 4 kids that need to go to college"
Thanks for keeping BW alive
Doing Great Work Artosis
Thanks for sharing RT!
First match got me real pissed
zhanhun and mihu can't come up fast enough
broodwar is the best RTS. There is age of empires and others, but none can be as hardcore and fun as broodwar
Artosis for Prime Minister!
hopefully with the release of Storm gate and zero space we get a renewed interest in RTS as a genre
I wonder if going fast crackling would have let him really dive through into AP's backline after killing off the zealot rush
Definitely not. He didn't have the gas to go hive (Or time. By the time you get adrenal, protoss is going to have storm and archons) or enough lings to actually threaten anything. Zerg was so far behind in that game that it was basically unwinnable with how many drones those first 2 zealots killed.
4:54 the sad moment~ :(
In 9:48 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Artosis ❤❤❤
FOR BROOD WAR!!!!!
Excellent game 😅
Aight, cool strat Xaio, see you never.
bleep blop algorithm friendly bleep blop comment bleep blop
I call Starcraft 1 by its expansion name "Broodwar" and Starcraft 2 I call "Starcraft"
To a twisted guy like me, a Brood War is just a Regular War...
comment for algo
You drove me crazy with that intense mouse clicking in the first couple of minutes.
Maybe better not do that as an observer.
Переиграл и уничтожил в первой игре!
Women know how to gamble
i hope asian countries just forget about starting war and shit and jist focus that energy on sone good starcraft
