Why would you want to avoid mirror matchups in random vs random? It's part of the game, and it's part of random vs random. Makes no sense :/

i think you're just misunderstanding how the BW random algorithm works

its just less likely of a mirror, not completely avoid, and its been this way for 15 years lol

18*

RvR is really uncommon anyway. I imagine Blizzard was mostly trying to keep team games diverse, but for whatever reason also applied it to 1v1s. In any case, I don't really have a problem with it existing that way, and Eriador (I think) wants it that way, so I'm fine with it


The RANDOMINATOR is a fraud who has skated by for years via not being tested with mirror matchups!


I used to think it was 1/27 chance of getting a mirror, not 1/24, but yeah.. When I played rvr, I would always operate under the assumption of it not being a mirror, and it's likely that many of my opponents weren't really aware of this. like randoming zerg I'd always fast expand not worrying about a zerg opponent, tvr I'd sometimes go 7rax cuz it was actually ~50% chance of a zerg opponent not just 33% (and the zergs would usually fast expand cuz they were random zerg). pvr I'd often place first gateway(s) outside my natural cuz then I could always put on pressure vs terran or zerg (going into 2gate exp vs z and 1 zealot 1 goon pressure vs t) and while gates outside natural is terrible pvp that doesn't actually matter.

Floating an idea here - thinking of organizing a small one-day tournament for shield battery users. I would cast it cast it myself. It might provide some good exposure for shield battery/BW in general. Thoughts?

I think u guys need invite more ppl, its impossible at europe day time to play, cuz its like 1-2 ppl online, most of this ppl who are on channel is all-time afk, so its no matter its 20pplor 30ppl online on server if in real its 1-3max.

I think its safe to assume that most of us are dying for an invite at this point. Fish sucks if you dont live in korea (laggy games even with latency changer), iccup just doesnt have have a good player pool, and for the most part we're all frustrated to deal with how stubborn game is with modern compatibility.

YES I ALSO THINK MORE INVITES ARE NECESSARY WINK WINK

I am not sure about that, even now at 21cet it is like 1-3 ppl. 1 guy is asking about game and before someone will answer he is offline cuz its like 5-60 minutes to someone will do it. mb sometimes is like in real 5-10 ppl but you need to be lucky to hit that time.

It's a work in progress, and someone has to be there when there are only a few people to build up the player base here.

I've been afking a lot, and I'd be more motivated to come play pre-planned matches and having a group there. I think it would also get people to online more often.

It's a nice crowd of people there.
