The Broodwar Experience

The very first time I played this game, I had good grades. Using the mouse to navigate while clicking on units to make, I never intended to use the keyboard to play. Fast forward a couple repetitive mistakes, I gradually learned how to compensate for the minutes ticking away. A fat midget or a skinny toothpick, which is more gifted?

Took a trip to visit the fam in South Korea, but this was so 2008. The occupancy in those internet cafes was mostly obsessed with Starcraft like Yes, my Conclave. Hit up the arcade since second grade, but never seen another game like this one being made. Within the following decade, the Board of Education would drop my letter score to C’s from A’s. Unlike the other juveniles, I was raised with a cane to behave so how did I end up this way? StarCraft Broodwar had dug me a grave. Never figured it out until it was too late.

All I ever wanted was to bring back the DC Sniper vibes in this community. Where it gets scary to step outside and to deal with constant paranoia just to watch your own back. Anybody can be a victim out here. Slowly but surely will we be deteriorating our mental health by running in zig zags. Nobody is safe.
