2 zerg team is strong in early stage. falls behind in late game. players who are understanding about 2 zerg early stage and knowing how to transition into mid game, they will be okay. I'm a person who played lots of torture, hard core style so I honestly don't care about picking 2 zerg.

I'll take Scan's word for it that ZZ isn't as broken as we might assume, but I still really liked the mandatory ZR in PL back in the day I think it adds a fun element into 2v2, both as a player and spectator.

It's also impossible to keep track of the races that teams pick for ensuring proper qualification. We'd have to get that kind of data from SB team and go through it on an individual basis. There is no match history available, meaning you can't click on a player's profile and see all the details of past matches (e.g., dates, times, races picked, maps, etc.).That information may become available in future updates on SB. It would also be too time consuming and burdensome for any of us to verify no one is picking ZZ or RR, or playing with a single partner or random partners, etc. For logistical reasons at least, it's just easier to be flexible with the rules and encourage mass participation.

There's a post on one of the previous pages of this thread, an announcement post in our discord, a tweet, and a post on the BW subreddit. I'm not sure what else you would like me to be doing here I'd prefer not to make new threads every time we release a new version, makes it very hard to track discussion

I suppose we could rename the thread from time to time. Keep "ShieldBattery:" at the beginning and then add whatever new feature has been updated behind the colon?

This is amazing. Thank you for your efforts in keeping the community alive.

Any chance there will be iOS support? Hate to ask for anything when you've already given so much, but I can't join otherwise, at least not now.
With lings like these, who needs friends?

The fact that this is not front and center on the tl.net homepage is a travesty This is the single biggest development the BW scene has seen in ages.

There might be macOS + linux support in the future, but currently it's not something we can really afford to devote time to, unfortunately.

Amazing!! I hope new 2v2 maps are created in the future for the Ladder as these maps being used are purpose made for 1v1 (except for Hunters). Also would be nice to have allies spawn in same area like in SC2 with the new maps. Bring on 3v3 as well!!
Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.

There are maps that need to be that way. Like Iron Curtain comes to mind.
But since BW always been that way with 2v2.(random spots) I ask myself how 2v2 players feel about it.

personally, i d like to try a few in BW to see how that d work. requires UMS though as far as I know which was the main blocking points for leagues, like BWCL

It s hard enough to have people download the mappool let alone play on maps in the mappool, so imagine if it had to be UMS... Plus it also opens the door for abuse on edited UMS maps
