Also, I just want to say that I anxiously await the day that this ladder system affords the opportunity for the following conversation to occur:

Player A: I'm higher ranked than you on ladder scrub.
Player B: Who cares? I have higher MMR. EZ.


Yeah, the point-based leaderboards are your way to say "prove it." An inactive player is essentially a wasted spot on a leaderboard, in the sense that their rank doesn't reflect their current ability. With this ladder refresh, we tried to strike a balance between activity and skill where the top of the ladder will be the best active players, and below them will be a mix of inactive "good" players and active "average" players. The design is such that a good player will have a couple of weeks of inactivity before they get overtaken by a wave of active weaker players.

Imagine what they could do if blizzard gave them funds. Feels like the world is upside down, those who do, get nothing, and those who do nothing, get rewards

This sounds so amazing. I haven't been on SB for a while since I could never actually find a match... Are there people playing on EU SB?

Hey tec27, I know it won’ t mean much, but never give up; trust me; what you have created, and are bringing forward, has a lot more influence than you think; proof is hard to come by, but when it happens, it’s annoying as a fly;

We pushed out a new map pool today to keep things fresh for the last month or so of our first season:

If you'd like the map files for some reason, here they are as well:

1v1: https://cdn.shieldbattery.net/misc/SB-1v1-Maps-2022-09-02.zip
2v2: https://cdn.shieldbattery.net/misc/SB-2v2-Maps-2022-09-02.zip

An update is coming soon as well, just not *quite* ready yet

New version and new season are out today!

Note: you will not be able to auto-update from the last version, please visit our website to download the latest installer: https://shieldbattery.net/splash. This can be installed over your existing client to update it. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Newer versions of old maps are generally just fixes to mineral patch arrangement. The files used in our map pools can be downloaded here:

It's great to see the amount of games some of the 2v2 players have amassed on SB! 700-800 games 🤯

Just wanted to to mention how smooth this was. I played a game with a university buddy and my room mate- we hadn't played together in years and normally it's like an hour getting whichever client (back in the old Hamachi or Garena days) where we are trying to port forward and trouble shoot and get it all running (The big hindrance was typically having two people on the same network AND having people in other cities in the same game.) But they all downloaded Shield Battery and joined my UMS game and we were off to the races.

Especially important as BW Battlenet hates my computer, creating some sort of black screen input error. Now if only I could convince all the boys that played BW in uni to play again for an old 2v2v2v2...
