Yes, OG is a far superior game.

Original is completely predictable, back when i played the last season of original I used 1 build per race and thats all you needed to win against top players, literally no reason to switch it up, push into wraiths tvz worked everytime almost, fast guards always worked zvt, etc. it got pretty boring to me.

Maybe you’re predictable doesn’t mean everyone else is… you could argue that zvt and tvz is the same way on brood war with lurker/swarm and medics/push. I highly doubt you were “winning against top players” consistently with the same strat every time. And what do you mean, was it fast push with wraiths worked every time or the fast guardians? ..

Besides sniper.scope nobody is really speaking up on behalf of brood war while the votes are 12-9. Someone got an argument for bw? If nothing else there’s this: more top players will play/comeback if it’s the same game we played for 10+ years competitively. I know when I saw bw I almost said fuck it and returned my desktop I had boughten just to play this game

I think you guys forgot that this has been tried before and barely anyone played scw on original. Even if you open up sc on original there’s very little games, so you’re not even attracting any new players

Yea Hus, i vaguely remember there being a return season of orig which flopped horribly. I enjoy orig as much as the next person but times have changed. Orig was basically on its last leg before remastered came out. I think having a tournament for orig only to see how much interest people have could be one way to go, maybe hype it back up if thats what ur going for. and ill play PPVPP all day anyday Jake u know this

The games from 1998 though, aren’t we better off trying to attract people from the old community rather than trying to find new players lol and that still doesn’t negate the fact that fmp on og is superior. I’m surprised it’s as split as it is poll wise. Do people really enjoy lurker/swarm that much? Lol

Ppl just haven't learned to deal with swarm yet. It honestly makes the more balanced. Pushing a z was too easy on original.  Tanks rises into wraith with good timing was all you need

A good zvt can hold a Terran push and get to late game which is equal. And speed lings are better for Zerg on original zvt with no medics.

Stopping a good t as z in bw is difficult lol. Mm is so strong. Lurker swarm comes around 9 mins.... takes alot of lurker micro around sunks and even then, t can spread units around swarm. Watch byul's tvz reps.
