There are 9 possibilities though because ZvT and TvZ isn't the same here. | ||

it's 1/3 for true random, non mirrors have a higher chance of happening because there is zvt and tvz instead of just zvz. Or looking differently at it: Race of first player doesn't matter, 2nd player has 1/3 chance to get same race as 1st player. Your question is still relevant for both 1/2 and 1/3 vs 1/27 though. | ||

The Remaster is amazing and all the fun parts of the game are still there better than ever, however yeah there's a lot of stuff like the awful pathing etc that will not only keep me but many others from committing to it long-term. Edit: I would also like to add that I have watched the more recent BW stuff that is on at watchable hours, and I look forward to following whatever scene pops up with Remaster's release. But yeah it's an ancient game and I have too much going on in my life to want to try learning something that might be dead when the hype after a month or two ends. what kind of stupid backhanded comment is this | ||

For more info: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/brood-war/413197-few-mirrors-when-both-players-random#18 For the record, I don't know if the random algorithm was changed, might be worth posting on the Blizz forums about it. | ||

The question is if people would want it to be true random or not, afaik mirror matchups aren't really popular | ||

So, given this is a BW subforum, everyone dogpiled those streamers. | ||
