Esports has come a hell of a long way and prizesare massive, but they might not have netted you anywhere near as much as what placing
5th to 8th in this
StarCraft 2 tournament would have got you.
StarCraft 2 was just taking off in 2011. Esports had been a thing for over a decade, but million-dollar prize pools and the streaming culture was just getting established.
But
StarCraft: Brood War was still kicking along, even though many players had transitioned to
StarCraft 2 at the time. So seeing the Team AoV ICCup Starleague have a prize pool of $US1000 was no big deal; if anything, it was nice that it had any funding at all.

StarCraft 2 is an excellent addition to the StarCraft universe. It improves upon the original in several ways, with better graphics, additional gameplay mechanics, and an extended story. And as it turns out, you can actually play the original StarCraft and StarCraft: Brood War inside of it.
Thanks to some talented fans, you can now fire up StarCraft 2 and jump into a game of the original StarCraft. PCGamesN reports that it s a fully playable version of StarCraft and StarCraft: Brood War with all of the original dialogue and progression paths.
Best of all, it s free to download and play as a mod. All you need is a copy of StarCraft 2. You can even use the free Starter Edition if you d rather not purchase the game.
