Changed the thread title to reflect that it's just settings that are kept.

The TvB color changes are just to make things more uniform I guess. SC2 does it too (but people have been complaining about that literally since the SC2 beta).

I love how they introduced ASL 5 maps. that's a great way to support the league. really smart and I love these patches for a 20 year old game. still can't believe we get these.

I still remember what hero did to best on Transistor. that map is gonna be fun as hell

Appearantly Red/Green is the most dominant form of color blindness. So even if it was fine for you, there's probably a lot of people who have problems with it.

On colors: in SC:R protoss has a lot of default green in all its units that was not there in the original. Watch some green protoss vs a white protoss and laugh.

veto system, so if you can't play on it then it's your own fault.

Are there even any newbies who are actively playing ladder?

Can some vets tell us about gladiator and transistor? Is it a good map for a specific race? Not so good in certain match ups? Please advise

Yay, move into a right direction. Thank you blizz.

I question tranzistor (especially if it's to stick for a long time) but you can always veto it so no problem.

I just played a ladder game on transistor.

OMG

It will take me 20 games to learn how to move on the map. It is much harder than what it looks

Red vs Blue is good for tournaments and casting. I remember a lot of old OSL and MSL tournaments forced Red/Yellow and Red/Blue.

Makes it easier for spectators and doesn't give you situations where it's orange vs brown protoss and they both look the same.

I didn't realise ladder was Top vs Bottom.

The best thing would be to make it so Ladder is One on One and Top vs Bottom is optional for tournaments. The best option in general would be to have it so you can set colours by default client side. I'd love to always be orange.

I think forcing red vs blue is just bad, it should be possible to achieve that via shift tab or so, but not forced.

As someone who created power rankings for reach race via colors, I'm really disappointed.

Purple Protoss = strongest Protoss color
Red Zerg = strongest Zerg color
Blue Terran = strongest Terran color

White/Yellow are very high up there for Z as well. And Green being very high for Protoss too.
From my research, Zerg does better with warm colors, where Protoss does better with cool colors.

And Terran is good no matter what color they are.
I want to fuck Soulkey with a Zelderan.

I mean, here's me.

I'm pretty terrible, and in most games, I'll get stomped, but I'll play someone of equal skill every few games. I'll even go through and stomp someone maybe 1/20 games.

The issue with being a newb, is that even a marginal improvement in mechanics results in a huge advantage, and results in a stomping.

It's just a lot of purposeful practice, and then grinding out experience to learn things like the maps.
