Thanks for the praise We had a problem with the dark lighting (which went on for a long time on NA, as the map was not updated there), and the problem was that you could not discern your units quickly enough if you had dark player colours (or units which are pretty dark to start with, like marauders/hellions). This does not matter that much for spectators, but for players this is a necessity. So the new lighting strives to correct this while still looking good. Because I wanted to make it easy to distinguish different units I used a Blizzard-made lighting and only made very minor changes to it (compared to the other lighting which had some large changes to make it look like it was at night) to preserve how the units look so they won't be too dark. So changing lighting mid-game is a no, even if it was accepted by the player community (which it is not), as the old lighting was bad to play on.

I think it'd better to show some of them to give people a glimpse but make them discover the rest on their own .I only show "some" of the doodads  Seriously, you have some more areas to explore ^^. But yeah, I can admit that I might have been overzealous when I made the map and took all the screenshots, sorry if that spoils it a bit for you  Also, they are spoilered, I did not think people would look at every image in the OP when I made it. | ||
