I'm looking for question ideas from the community. This is for a Trivial Pursuit map We've split it into 5 categories:
- Melee (SC2 mechanics and gameplay)
- Story (SC2 storyline and background)
- Esports (SC2 leagues, championships and ladders)
- Arcade (SC2 custom maps and mods)
- Blizz (Other Blizzard games)
Currently all questions are multichoice, 4 options, 1 answer is correct. The exact rules and game mechanics have yet to be fully determined. Here are some sample questions: Can you answer them 
Melee - Which unit combination has the total most hitpoints?
- 3 Roaches
- 8 Marines
- 1 Battlecruiser
- 1 Thor
Story - Who did Kerrigan kill out of these characters?
- Tychus
- Tassadar
- Fenix
- The Overmind
Esports - Who won the very first GSL Championship?
- MvP
- MC
- Fruitdealer
- July
Arcade - Who created the popular custom map Star Battle?
- Quancakes
- Icefrog
- Chainer
- Zedu
Blizz - Who is the youngest of the Prime Evils in Diablo 3?
- Diablo
- Baal
- Mephisto
- All the same
Please take a minute to submit some of your questions!!
Update - RULES
- Up to 6 players
- Each turn a player rolles a dice between 1-5, he must move the exact result in any direction.
- Whichever category you land on you ask a question of that type.
- You are rewarded +50 minerals for answering a category correctly for the first time.
- Afterwards answering a category consecitvely will only reward you +10 minerals.
- The first player to have 250 minerals and make it back to the center wins the game!
Still to be determined the difference between 'big circles' and 'little circles'.

Wait, this is an arcade map right? if so that's cool, it shouldn't be too many people, something like 2-4 is good I guess. You should also limit the time to be rather short, something like 10 sec per question, or maybe have a total time for all questions and the 1st to have no time left loses (wrong answers tax you some seconds).
Questions I have on mind now:
Esports - Who won the most GSL titles?
Esports - Who has an award named after him?
Esports - Which person won the most prize money on SC2?
Esports - Which single event had the most prize money for SC2?
Esports - Which player dominated the IPL fight club to achieve 14 consecutive wins?
Arcade - What was the 1st map to be featured by Blizzard that was not made by Blizzard?
Arcade - Which map is currently the most popular on the arcade?
Arcade - How many bookmarks can you have in the arcade?
Arcade - In which patch was the arcade added to SC2?
Arcade - What is the DotA style map for SC2?
*Its hard to think of good arcade stuff...
Blizzard - What year was Blizzard founded?
Blizzard - What race is featured on Warcraft 3's 1st campaign?
Blizzard - Which heroes were added through the expansion of Diablo 2?
Blizzard - Which hero is present and playable through all the Diablo games?
Blizzard - Who was the main villain in World of Warcraft's second expansion?
answers:
Esports: 1 - MvP, 2 - Nestea, 3 - MC, 4 - BWC, 5 - HyuN.
Arcade: 1 - Elemental TD (might be wrong here), 2 - Desert strike, 3 - Aeon of Storms (used to be something else), 4 - 1.5, 5 - 100.
Blizzard : 1 - 1991, 2 - The Lich King, 3 - Orcs (its the tutorial), 4 - trick question, there is none, 5 - The Druid and the Assassin.
I'll continue with more of the questions as I think of them.

I think questions that rely on current times are kinda bad, since maybe in 3 years there will be a new player who has won the most GSL titles or multiple players will have awards named after them. Most of them can easily be reworded however. Of course all the Melee ones are hard to avoid since Blizzard can always patch the game later 
eSports - Who was the first player to win 4 GSL Championships?
-MVP
-NesTea
-MC
-Flash
eSports - After which player is the award for 10 consecutive seasons in GSL Code S named?
-MVP
-NesTea
-Supernova
-Fruitdealer
ect
Some suggestions of mine-
Melee- Which unit was the first to be changed in 10 seperate patches?
-Roach
-Ghost
-Infestor
-High Templar
Melee- Which unit can receive the most consecutive Psionic Storms?
-Immortal
-Roach
-Ultralisk
-Battlecruiser

I suggest you switch out Arcade for something else, as this is a difficult topic due to the low number of (popular) maps. You may be able to make a ton of questions on them, but very few people will be able to answer them (also because for now, the game is Region related, not World-wide).

While I don't have an good questions right now, I would advice to not use questions were answer can change over time, like
Which person won the most prize money on SC2?
How many maps have been removed or added from the Starcraft II 1v1 ladder pool mid-season
|
I'm amazed by all the responses, I wasn't expecting this. Please keep them coming, I've put alot of them in the map. My goal is to get up to 100 questions per category and then release it, hopefully before or for New Years!
I suggest you switch out Arcade for something else, as this is a difficult topic due to the low number of (popular) maps. You may be able to make a ton of questions on them, but very few people will be able to answer them (also because for now, the game is Region related, not World-wide).
Good point on the region, but I think the fun is having various categories where everyone will be slightly better in some but weaker than others.
I'll update the main thread with the rules and win conditions

Does every category need the same amount of questions? Don't think it matters that much, people will appriciate questions in general, even more so starcraft related questions. The quiz I linked you earlier contains over 50 questions for your "Game" category, keep stuffing in as many questions as you can to make it a big leveling quiz
I found this quiz pertaining Warcraft http://www.proprofs.com/quiz-school/story.php?title=world-warcraft-quiz-wowheadcom
And two questions I thought of myself related to warcraft is:
Q: How was Pandaren first introduced into Warcraft?
A: It was an Aprils fool joke, but the community loved the idea so they actually implemented it into wc3 and later the mmorpg. In wc3 you had a few missions as a brewmaster (much like the few ones you had with Rexxar). You could not build pandarens but you could hire one as a hero in multiplayer (but that was only for the expansion The Frozen Throne I believe).
Q: What was the "mount ability" originally called for Taurens in WoW?
A: "Plains Running". Taurens didn't have a mount in the early stage of the beta, they just "charged" up and ran faster.

SC2 WoL Melee
How much damage does a Mutalisk's attack do on a second target (bounce) with +2 flyer attack upgrade? (10 sec)
- 3,22 damage
- 4,22 damage
- 4,66 damage
- 3,66 damage
+ Show Spoiler +- 3,66 (3 + 2. 0,33), a mutalisk's second target (or first bounce) takes 1 damage extra after 3 upgrades.
How much health per real-time second does the medivac heal biological units? (5 sec)
- 15,5 hp/s
- 13,5 hp/s
- 11,5 hp/s
- 9,5 hp/s
+ Show Spoiler +- 13,5 hp/s (9 hp/s in game time)
How much health is restored for one point of energy by a Medivac's heal on mechanical units? (5 sec)
- 3 health
- 2,5 health
- 2 health
- 0 health
+ Show Spoiler +- 0 health (heal doesn't affect mechanical units)
What is the cheapest way to make a Protoss Archon in absolute resources? (10 sec)
- High Templar x2
- Dark Templar x2
- High Templar + Dark Templar
- They are all equally expensive
+ Show Spoiler +- High Templar x2, 2 HT amounts to 100 minerals and 300 gas (400 total). DTx2 costs 250/250 = 500 total and DT+HT costs 175/275 = 450 total.
Which of the following unit combinations costs less gas: 7 Stalkers, 3 Sentries or 10 Zealots and a Phoenix? (10 sec)
- 7 Stalkers
- 3 Sentries
- They are all equally expensive
- 10 Zealots and a Phoenix
+ Show Spoiler +- 7 Stalkers (7 . 50 = 350 gas) while Sentries cost (3 . 100) = 300 gas). Zealots don't cost gas at all and Phoenix costs 100 gas.
For how many game seconds can a single Sentry with 200 energy keep a Force Field up, assuming he is controlled perfectly? (10 sec)
- 30 seconds
- 45 seconds
- 60 seconds
- 75 seconds
+ Show Spoiler +- 60 seconds, each FF costs 50 energy and lasts up to 15 seconds, so (4 . 50 = 200 energy). Energy regenerates at 0,5625 per game second so the Sentry regenerates (60 . 0,5625 = 33 energy), not enough to make a fifth FF, thus capping the maximum uptime to 60 seconds, not 75.
Including buildings, but not counting Cloak double, how many spells does SC2:WoL have in total? (10 sec)
- 28
- 29
- 30
- 31
+ Show Spoiler +- 30, (force field, guardian shield, hallucination, feedback, psi storm, graviton beam, vortex, mass recall, chrono boost, sniper round, cloak, EMP, 250mm cannons, calldown: MULE, calldown: supplies, scanner sweep, heal, build auto-turret, point defense drone, seeker missile, yamato cannon, point defense laser, spawn larva, spawn creep tumor, transfusion, neural parasite, fungal growth, infested terran, spawn changeling, contaminate)
How many different buildings can a Protoss build in a melee game? (10 sec)
- 14
- 15
- 16
- 17
+ Show Spoiler +
What do cloaked, hallucinated and burrowed units all have in common? (5 sec)
- They cannot deal damage to other units
- They are slower than their original forms
- They all take increased damage from attacks
- They can all be identified with a detector
+ Show Spoiler +- They can all be identified with a detector, burrowed units cannot move, hallucinated units deal no damage and take increased damage and cloaked units are invisible units that can attack freely with their normal damage
I could make a thousand of these, but I have to get to work - I recommend distilling these kind of questions from Liquipedia to easily get the same amount.
