Hey guys, quick question.
If I am playing with Bnet, am I hosting the game like ICCUP? I ask because there is not South American server yet, so I am not sure if I am going to lag players if I create the game.

That's really interesting to me, i doubt anything will be done about this though.

Well, broodwar remastered is made for korean market, it's for them not for us, so they should dictate "how they want it", but i think messing with balance in something like broodwar will just make game unfun. Balancing around highest level of play is a mistake, because doing so you are forcing 50/50 winratio even if for ex. A player is like prodigy and just overall better than player B, it's logical that he will win most of the time, and you force 50/50 and then you have ZPcraft situation like in sc2 when T is underpresented in europe because only few koreans can play it.

T is already underrepresented with foreign players. You are also not just balancing for two players. There are, however years of statistics and other evidence that Terran has a bit of an edge over the other races. This problem has not just jumped out from hiding behind a tree and said BOOH! This discussion has been looming for years now.
However, the problem is to actually find a change that makes sense. You cannot just make a list of all the strengths in a race's favor and call them imbalances. Yes, Terran has the most means of detection, however, their standard means of mobile detection, Science Vessels, are also by far the most expansive and highest tech ones and with more expensive scans or less dirt cheap missile turrets, Terran would probably have some real trouble against lots of early game shenanigans (not to speak of late game TvP).
Yes, tanks are strong, scale steeply and get great critical mass bonus, but are also slow and costly to produce in the first place.
SCVs with maybe 50Hp and 1 armour, or maybe just 45HP, could work. However, anything under 50HP/1armour would make them much more vulnerable to scarabs (one shot kills in 50% splash radius) and above that there is basically no difference in performance against anything in practice. Small changes, potentially huge effects is the problem in a game that revolves a lot around damage thresholds.
Now the other thing SCVs have going for them is their 1/3 lower attack cooldown, compared to Drones and Probes. But changing that would just invalidate most of Terran's early game cheese and couter-cheese strats without changing anything about Terran's late game strength.
Maybe buffing Queens (cheaper broodling? Energy upgrade increases initial energy? Give them [something like] consume?) and Scouts (maybe 10 damage, cheaper Fleet Beacon upgrades and maybe make the vision upgrade also add +1/+2 to attack range...) is the solution, after all... Or some more HP for guardians, so they trade better against Goliaths? I don't know, but neither of those changes would be as potentially devastating as any nerves that could be made to Terran directly, I think.

Terran isn't rigged. Flash and Light are just too damn good.
