Awesome writeup.

Once again proving that SC2, despite our misgivings, is in good hands.

David The SC2 Bonjwa Kim is the game balancer for starcraft 2. He plays the game, tweaks everything from build times to unit stats and releases a new internal build of the game up to 5 times per day


So David Kim is the only one tweaking SC2 balance? I hope he has a team around him, I doubt 1 guy is enough for such an important task :/

Well Matt Cooper is on the balance team too and they have a data mining guy (forget his name now) who apparently is amazing and wizards stuff to analyze thousands of reps, and generate reports on all the timings, builds etc that people are using. Then they can play around with those numbers - obviously that's a dumbed down version of what they do but yeah i think it's 3-4 guys on balance.
