What game would it take to determine "who the best rts players are" ?
(within the confine of the "active" sc2 ladder map pool)

[image loading]


Yes!
This thread is meant to build a poll, all of us together.
Questions about units, maps, gameplay, strong cheese or imba, fun or not fun.. pro level or newb friendly.. any aspect is applicable as long as it relates to what "map pool we want for sc2"!

The results of this poll would be showcased to Blizzard.
(of course, I wouldn't be the one posting such a poll, never shoot the messenger (torture him first)!)

Please post here ONE question per post to be added to the list of questions as "open polls".
The only requirement is that the question, if asked to all the community, would showcase results that could steer gently the noble game developer into saving the sc in sc2.

Alternatively, freely post your own question/poll about what kind of map pool we want for sc2 in this thread!

ty for your time

Subscribing to a registered exterior ladder would be exactly like the ladder, except the "map pool" and social activity would be set by professionals (registered with blizzard as such) .. via blizzard awarding them access etc...

I feel very confused about this thread, but I am pretty sure those questions don't have anything to do with map pools. Not sure if that was the purpose though, as I am confused... Could you, um, explain what is going on in this thread, apart from you using font size as substitution for spoilers?

Also, I am drawn to the "hate polls" option for mysterious reasons.

A live poll thread, arguing by posting more and more pertinent polls.. but still having all the previous ones to reflect upon ..?

I feel it is interesting.. not that my questions are any of these things... I am not sure my post/questions should cloud my OP?
(original post)
That they do is out of my control (like your constant referral to my "spoilers" seem to indicate)!

Thank you for your time.
