Alright go play on iccup then no ones forcing you to play remastered.

SC2 has rankings based on MMR now so it's safe to assume SC:R does too.

Honestly as a person who use to play over 1K games a season on Iccup, I think matchmaking is going to be for the best. One thing i have learned from playing on iccup is that getting wrecked and not having a fair chance is very discouraging, and at the same time winning one sided is not rewarding. But with this being said its really important to keep player retention because without that we will be back to having a meaningless point system.

Alright go play sc2 then no ones forcing you to touch our holy grail.

Nope. SC2 has MMR. But ranking is not based on MMR.

i wonder how maps will be chosen for mapmaking?? is it community based or blizzard based? can i only play FS if i feel like it? can i pick MUs? will GM only have an arbitrary 200 people in it regardless of mmr so i have to wait for people to be inactive before i can get in or spam games at the start of a season? lots of questions about bnet .20 being retroactively put into broodwar
the profiles are okay as long as they can be fully hidden based on user discretion. otherwise people will tease me about only having 80apm

I used to play with a Zerg player who had 80ish APM in n.stOp) (Reaper was his name I think) and he was B-. I still don't understand how.

In TSL2 i hit A rank (but then dropped down to ~10k A-) with ~150 apm, so i can definitely see players hitting B- (especially now that iccup ranks are inflated) with 100 apm. I didn't know about F-keys back then which is unfortunate, post SC2 my apm is 300 mostly because i use F-keys very actively (which forces good habits).
If you have a good mind for the game and use the minimap/your mouse efficiently you can reach a decent rank with relatively low apm.

Hopefully its similar to sc2, where you have far less downvotes than the map pool. We as a community need to move pass this map spam bullshit. Theres more to the game than fs or cb.

Completely agreed. What is your stance on picking matchups, so probably like TvZ while playing zerg in the other matchups.
I read that some people want that to be a thing, imo it's kinda ridiculous though.

I disagree. Lot of koreans still spam fs or circuit rven though Bluestorm gives double the point. Come on man setilusly playerd wont play in unbalanced maps. You think zerg is going to play terran on camelot?

The solution to that is balanced maps, not playing on only 2 maps.

There are plenty of maps that are more balanced than camelot, and plenty of fun to be had with map variations. Broodwar has always been a game of map variation, its only the last few years that everyone has become so paralyzed by concerns of balance that we only play two maps, both of which are nearly identical to one another in design.

I think it would be pretty cool if APM included fkeys. I make pretty good use of them. SC2 I recall I was very happy with my apm, and I play faster in BW for sure (by necessity) but my apm is lower than I'm happy with. Suspect F-Keys is major part.

Non-RE version will still have match-maker.

I would like map pool system will be like in sc2 (pool of maps, you can downvote some). In bw I always played on 1 map (as everyone else), and coming to sc2 it was 1 of the big improvements over broodwar for me (along with never having lags). It was like a breath of fresh air to play on different maps, so much diversity. But when I returned to bw, I play 1 map again (as everyone does).

Yea, matchmaking is probably the biggest addition to the BW:Remastered announcement, I agree.

idk i think balance could be affected a lot if you switch up maps
