Hahah just have to quote this for posterity

Super cool to SB there, even if Blizzard eventually fucks everything up this means we have a real modernized community backup. In addition it's possible that if SB becomes the premier private server that we'll also get much better interaction with the Korean community if they're forced off of bnet due to Blizzard's lack of support.

Such an amazing project with a clear vision and a great team behind it! I'm super excited for the future of ShieldBattery (and Brood War).

I just found out about this from a chat message from Sziky's stream.

SC:R lags quite a bit when I play against non-USA players, so I'm definitely going to play on ShieldBattery more from now on.

is this faster for across the board run-of-the-mill internet? scr just kills my 100mbps when i turn up turn rate to like 16 even. says some proxy things that i have to contact my provider which in my country just sucks since they lock up the router or something e.g. portforward issues etc

i have tons of friends who play but are just frustrated by this too

It might be better for you right now, it might not. I imagine at the very least it will be more consistent

We're only a very small part of the way into our intended netcode changes right now. Once those are all implemented, I can give you a much stronger answer. As is, though, we're still using Blizzard's code for determining turn rate, etc. that a lot of people are dissatisfied with.

I think it's super-cool that you're still doing this. I'm kind of disappointed with how Blizzard handled pretty much everything. I thought that it was cool that you made the original shieldbattery to begin with. I felt like iCCup was really slipping in how they were handling Brood War, by essentially shoving it aside for DotA.

This is great.
