Hey, I am MasterLex and i play StarCraft for about 15 years.
I live in Germany so I hope my posts will be understandable. I try my best. Feel free to correct me so I can improve

Less of my friends still play Starcraft 1. So I startet my own mapmaking two weeks ago to create Coop-Scenarios. I like playing StarCraft on LAN-Partys but these events seems to be quite rare.
It is a

I am not a pro player but I try my best to pose a challenge to others.

I'd love to play melee myself but the best way to improve is to play with people who are only a little better than myself but I don't think those exist anymore given my skill level.

The best place to find practice partners here might be on the discord although I don't think we have many good players.

If you're interested in making ums, you'll find some of our best maps in this thread. Most of the download links are dead but I think you can still find the maps under 'starcraft I files' or their corresponding threads. Those maps should provide guidelines to help you direct your time and attention to the things you need to improve most.

Welcome to SEN!

Just here for the pie

I'll play melee with you. I play Terran, ~1700 MMR on ladder.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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.

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:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
