I can't imagine they'd spend the amount of money it'd take to do a 3d version of BW. Plus there is no way the game would feel very similar to play and anyone who still plays brood war at all seriously would not want to adapt. Brood war unit control & micro is extremely idiosyncratic and it is all because of BWs oldschool 2d engine and the way the animations work. My guess is they're going to do a high-res facelift to the same 2d engine in order to keep the gameplay feeling hopefully-about-the-same.

Remastered BW isn't going to get anywhere near the constant levels that LoL, CS and DotA get.
Yeah, there's just no way. There may be BW tourneys happening in korea again but they're funded by fan donations and watched by a tiny fraction of the number of koreans watching games like overwatch and LoL. The big BW teams disbanded because the sponsorship money wasn't there anymore.

But will it top SC2?
Maybe. 50-50 I'd say
