Multiple. Also they can scout cross.

There 2-3 main scouting patterns, but can vary a bit on how terran wants to play.

Hi! Can anyone point me to some FAQ/information regarding playing on Korean server from Europe? What kind of things should I set/what should I use in order to play there?
I've checked and unfortunately my ping is 307ms to a korean speedtest server instead of the 7ms in my local area. (of course the korean one is not the same as the blizzard gateway but it should give a rough idea)
I couldn't find a topic related to this.

Thanks!

(BTW as for the why: I'd like to play in the online qualifiers for KSL and that is going to be on the korean gateway. I've tried setting blizzard launcher to Asia and using the korean gateway in starcraft but it was really laggy for me)

The general consensus seems to be using the mudfish VPN, I'll link the guide below, I haven't used it myself but I've heard good things.

Love firebathero, but his main argument seems to be that it will be new and refreshing and will revive the scene. I highly doubt this will happen.

I don't think that it would be enough either, bw's mechanics alone simply don't appeal to newer/younger gamers. I agree though that in general balance/design patches to keep a game fresh are successful and any new game should probably do it.
He is right though, no need blood is a problem, not sure if there is a realistic solution though.

If you balance patch the game then you're starting a chain of continual balance patches and the game will end up changing drastically (i for one would lose interest in the game at that point), does Blizzard wanna spend resources and time to constantly release balance patches for bw? And if they do who says the end result will be a better game? Don't even mention the stream of people complaining with every released patch

The way blizzard patches sc2 is a sh**tshow years
Endless patching that are insignificant why eve bother anymore if the game is not in a good place after 100s of patches but let’s bring out the next rebalance patch for the sc2 fanbase to keep them happy right..

Not in a good place? How do you come to that conclusion? And how exactly is starcraft in a better place when people are getting bored? You also have to explain why the better game (Starcraft) is not also the bigger game. Your post is lacking alot of information

Blizzard is in a dilemma. If they don't patch the game they're essentially relegating it to a slow death. If they do patch the game then gamers will rage for touching the sacred balance of Brood War.

Me personally I'm in the camp of keeping the balance as is. ASL is still going strong, and can fill up seats in the finals. My guess is that it'll still go strong until the ex-pros get too old. That's pretty damn good for a game from the 90's. I think it's more of a gamble to roll out a patch, piss off a portion of existing players, and get a small amount of new players.

I do agree with his point though, I would like to see shitty units like ghosts or scouts be buffed. But I think there's plenty of time for that to happen, as it'd be like a totally new expansion.

even buffing underused units like ghost/scouts would completely change balance.
tbh despite all the revival of pro bw, bw is dying whether we like it or not. just gotta enjoy the scene while the current streamers still play. you cant revive brood war unless you turn it into something that is no longer the brood war we know

im sorry firebathero but that video is pure clickbait or maybe humour,just cuz u change vulture damage and other minor changes u dont gonna have a new 20k player pool ready to learn the game and stick with it.
but he is not completely wrong,if Blizzard decides to create a new expansion serving as a prequel to SC2 ,with modern mechanics, maybe 2 new units x race and some changes like the stack bug etc freeze bug''maybe'' a new pool of players will love to try it and maybe stick to it. Who will not be in ? BW veterans,SC2 veterans.
just think about sc2 model,3 new expansions,and the third one adding changes that in the eyes of the sc2 fans they are actually changing the game,for bw fans it doesnt matter,is the same game.
