All the people who insist on the holy layout of BW hotkeys again be reminded that right now hotkey layout is by no means fixed but depends on the language version one is playing. So this really only levels the playing field. | ||

I'm also curious about how they'll handle aspect ratio. I know you can switch freely but wouldn't playing in widescreen be advantageous? Seems to me that it should be limited for ladder play at least | ||

I think its a good idea, cause i hate to tell you low level players who think mashing e instead of p will make them jump 2-3 ranks are sorely mistaken | ||

Why would anyone be worried that some new person who just wants some different layout is going to have some big advantage? Where you move your hands on your keyboard already just depends on keyboard size and the mobility/length of your fingers. Pro players will presumably stick to their hotkeys because they have thousands of hours of muscle memory to fall back on, and no 'fancy efficient layout' is going to be the deciding factor in anything. | ||

It's just better for new comers like me ( im a sc2 player with a customed hotkey layout ) for the comfort of play and nothing more. Custom hotkeys can in theory affect balance, because some things become slightly easier to do (such as hitting "o" for Siege mode being harder than "e", and missing by even just 0.2 seconds can be game changing). But, the truth is, it was possible to modify keyboard keys already anyway. Also, different versions of BW in different languages had different hotkeys, so if it was *that* big of a deal someone could have taken advantage of it perfectly legally. I think it's a worthwhile addition. All that really matters is that pro level balance isn't affected, and that's not going to happen just because of this. | ||

And we still don't know if there will be additional game modes such as co-op. Yeah I'm curious too. Deepmind/blizz were supposed to come out with an api for sc2 ai in early 2017 but we are rapidly moving past that point with no word. | ||

Ideally I would like an option to get all the benefits of the latest version but keep the old graphics if I want. If not, I'm still happy. Loving Blizzard! | ||
