Back at launch, I used to play Starcraft, and then its expansion "Brood War," online a lot; Starcraft actually holds the honour of being the first video game I ever played via an online service.
That was in 1998, and now, almost twenty years later, I decided to pop online and play a 1v1 for the first time in StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void.
I'm playing Unranked, and I had a good bit of fun and nostalgia with this match. Zerg was always my favourite Species, even though I play Random, so it was fitting I got to play as them first.
The style of the games though are quite different. Starcraft: Brood War's Ladder was heavily rush-based, whereas StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void seems more about resources/harassment and map control.
