Playing the hots custom map on the arcade so far has made me notice one thing that'll be interesting to see in the beta...

"Not new enough" whine

I've played a few games where strategically I saw no reason to make any new units (as terran, no less, where it's even harder to do so) and people have absolutely lost their shit at me. I've been bm'd as bad as I've ever been on ladder. If people wanted to play with the new units, they can play on their own or vs ai... they seem to think they have a right for me to do silly builds.

One guy went mass SH and I went mass marine and he flipped out because "marines aren't new" and started telling me to kill myself. But the marine vs. SH relationship is new...

And one guy went 3 stargate voids. Some things never change.

Soon means at least another week. AT LEAST.
Starcraft 2 was designed to have a best race. You play the worst one.

Don't worry, these people are stupid.
Testing how standart play work against new units is something we need to test too.

It's not because HOTS focus on Mech unit that terrabn should stop playing Bio.

Thank god. I'm getting really sick of reading posts about how broken HotS will be, when most people haven't even played it.


Don't worry, soon you'll get to read posts about how broken HotS is from people who barely play it and all will be right with the world again.


dont worry.. you'll get posts about how broken hots is, even from people who play alot..
its like an opera show

zerg gets broken!
terran gets broken!
protoss gets broken!
everyone gets broken!!!!



looking forward to getting hots in one form or another anyways will be fun


Anyone can yell "X is broken!!!!"

I'm most excited for those who try to break down the numbers and timings without actually knowing how to play or what in the hell they are talking about.

Hey, just had a quick question hoping someone here knows the answer. If I have different accounts for NA and EU, can I opt in to the beta on both account on the SAME cpu? Or do I have to use my laptop for one of them. I noticed it tracked my IP so it just popped up in my head.

40-60ish at the start and get cheaper as the beta goes on and opens for more people. Atleast judging from cs go beta prizes, which was probably a lot harder to get into.

Ridiculous how they say they are going to test with a number of pros. Won't these have a huge head start against the other pros?

I know that a lot of people get excited, but "very soon" in Blizzard terms could mean any time frame between weeks to months. I wish it would be the former (and that I get a Beta Key )

Not just the pros. Any player that gets into it will have an advantage over those that don't come release day, whether they're bronze or masters.

It's just that these players usually don't participate in tournaments with significant prize pools.

I don't see how that's relevant.
