I had some nostaglia about this game since I watched Grubby's stream and got desire to install it these days.

So I was wondering, could we gather 1 day on w3arena to make some TL cup?

I played about 100 games for last 8 years since i retired from playing so I hope there will be not to many active players

what do u think of idea? Bracket shoild be easy to make through Challonge.

Tried to play this game with a friend using Iccup launcher, didn't work--told us the custom we made to play together didn't exist regardless of who hosted. RGC can only be used for DotA afaik, and Garena I've heard no longer works for WC3. I cannot use w3arena for technical reasons. Any hope to actually play this game with my friends? Also, anyone poking around for noobs to play with? I've got a few and we'd love to pick the game up again

Use a hostbot.

Else you have the good old problem that you need one special open port to host games in Bnet and Bnet clients.

An amateur league for getting back into it would be pretty fun.

Maybe it is the leaked changes, but it most definitely is not the leaked patch notes. Too many english/spelling errors, and in general "unblizzardlike" wording.
Even though the changes look reasonable, I would be suspicious.

Maybe leaked in chinese and then raw translated to eng?

I can see alot of these happen, but could also be jut wild guess, we see soon.
Alot of people expect the Solo-Warden to get nerfed, either by cutting or reducing the XP-Bonus you get on solo heroes at T2 and T3 or by nerfing her stats/abilities. Also Itemluck should be nerfed, like Crystal Ball / hood compared to dropped auras.

What I hope that happens is that W3A, Blizzard and Netease work togeather to globalize the netease client (integrated in Bnet launcher) during this year. Using W3A infrastructure, ensuring good ping from CN to EU and from EU to NA. Getting rid of the hackers.

The patch comes out global for Bnet 1.0 and the chinese offiicial clients on 15.3.2016, not only for china/netease.

You cannot play on chinese netease client via bnet, you need to download and activate the netease client. Yaws made a good tutorial how to get into it.
