After nearly six and a half years of map making, Clan (U) has finally reached its end. This is hardly news for some people, as (U) has been slowing fading away for some time, but this gives us a sort of closure. We couldn't just go on forever pretending the clan was alive and well.

The map making community isn't what it used to be. The structure of our clan is no longer required or welcome.
Hopefully, though, our members won't be going anywhere. I for one plan on sticking around for a whole longer, making maps and helping out when I can.

To the innumerable members we've had over the years: Good game.

- Kenoli, former leader of Clan Unknown

Clan (U) has finally died out. Clan (U) had a great run and was one of the greatest map making Clans Starcraft has ever seen. The SC Clan (U) we all once knew and loved is now gone. But with SC II just over the horizon, we could expect a return of Clan (U) at some point.

To all the member over the years, Thank you for making Clan (U) one of the greatest.

R.I.P.
CLAN (U)

Relatively ancient and inactive

R.I.P. Clan Unknown - they've had a good run. SC Mapmaking isn't really active, and I expected most guilds to drop sooner. I'm sure some'll be back for SCII, though. Don't get your hopes down.

Good Game. The fall of (U) means the end of map making for starcraft. All there is left in battle.net is stupid narutard clans hosting a crappy ass battle hokage game.

Goodbye to perhaps the only mapping clan I ever had any respect for :(

But yes, it was sort of inevitable by now.

NudeRaider -- blessed innocent soul knows nothing of the strife we had before EUDs were discovered :teehee:

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.
[2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
