Everyone follow updates from @Kennigit on Twitter! But this is what he has tweeted so far:

- Showing video of multiplayer update. Changing Mothership to "Mothership Core". Tempest attacks air and ground.
- Oracle has cloaking ability.
- similar to motherships cloaking ability. Has to stay stationary while casting it it looks like. Widow mines attack air or ground.
- Spider mines except they have a timer on them and attach to units (you could probably pull them out of your control group to not get owned)
- "Blinding cloud" on viper. Looks like dark swarm from BW
- Video showing baneling/line viper vs marine tank. Viper pulls tanks towards them while banelings run in at marines avoiding splash.
- Battle Hellion discussion: Late game terran vunerable to charged zealots - this is basic answer. Substantially worse vs banelings.
- Good as part of a larger army comp late game. Showing Warhound now - 2 weapons: cannon +dmg vs mech and missles - autocast (if you want)
- Missles autocast vs mech units. Shoots closest mechanical target - to break up the monotony of TvT
- Gives factory option against protoss.
- Widow Mine (temp art is a spider mine). Leaps up and grabs ground or air targets. Timer (10 seconds currently). AoE dmg.
- Widow Mines trying to break up death balls.
- If the unit dies (you kill your own unit). It doesn't do AoE to units around it. Removed bombs from Reaper - added regen out of combat.
- Attack, retreat, reheal, go attack again.
- Viper can drain live off a building to regen energy.

I wonder how the BW pros are going to feel about learning SC2 only to find out that the sequel goes back BW so much. Oh, and what lays the widow mines?

"The *Insert European Tournament* is just a FU West Coast event. I really wanted to see it but starting at 2:00 AM to 6:00 AM on a Friday lol. *Insert European Tournament* doesn't want to cater for America it seems."

What time do you want this start at? Two hours earlier when a lot of people will be still in school or at work? Or would you want to start it later a few hours and have them go until 2:00 AM+ into the night to try and keep up to schedule?

So starting an event at 9 AM is way too much to ask. It has to start in the middle of the day?


It's a FRIDAY, LIKE YOU SAID. Kids in school till 3:00 PM, usually. Adults in work until maybe around 4:00 PM/5:00 PM. If you start it at 9:00 AM on a Friday, you're going to have 10 people in the audience. That would be idiotic by MLG to basically say fuck you to the audience who paid a ticket so that they can cater to the European audience.


Nobody expects a friday crowd to be big. And they would still get half of the day of games anyway and would not be forced to watch games in the middle of the night with games played by exhausted players.

Instead EU will bring 20.000 viewers that will watch MLG ads or what ever. OH, but that sounds too ambitious I guess.


"Nobody expects a friday crowd?" I'm pretty sure the venue is close to or already has sold out for spectators... Just quit digging yourself a hole... You realize how stupid you sound?

EDIT: MLG UPDATE: "Due to ceaRshaf's complaint about timezone broadcasting issues, we regret to inform you all that we won't be starting the matches until 2:35am PST. ceaRshaf's request to cater to another countries timezone based on his supreme thought process has been the ultimate turnpoint in our decision. As he is our most important fan, who demonstrates how to look like a jackass on a forum by saying stupid shit, we've decided with this result. Please feel free to message ceaRshaf with any complaints about such an idiotic request, or if you'd like to know more about how to become a fucking idiot. Cheers, MLG"


How many times we hear excuses for friday crowds? At every tournament out there friday crowds are small because, guess what, it's Friday! So it's not like I am shitting words out of the blue, or maybe you don't watch many tournaments to hear all the excuses for the 10 persons crowd clapping. Maybe this MLG will be different.

And posting offensive is such a good way to make your opinion heard.

we actually don't hear those friday crowd things with MLG. they are always pretty full, the sc2 section at least.

and seriously Euro's stop whining. DH starts at like 2 am for me. As does GSL. Its just how the world works when you watch events that are across the globe.

The bw pros are fist pumping at HotS right now because it's a big reset button that will set everyone back to zero. There will be a brand new meta game with new units that every current pro will have to learn again from scratch. Therefore, the bw pros can play sc2 now to learn interface etc, but once HotS hits they will be on equal ground with all the current sc2 pros.

i'll kill everyone with HotS protoss. It's looking excellent.

Mothership Core - build mothership core from nexus, has to remain attached to nexus. Can tele to any nexus you have. Purify ability makes.it into a powerful photon cannon. Can upgrade it to Mothership later. Can mass recall. This is early game unit.

As I said before... Do you have any clue how much stuff there is to do at an MLG? When you first get there it's like a kid in a candy store. Also, HotS. Don't be surprised to see seats empty. Why? Cause people get up between matches and new people take there seats. People cycle out of the seats during breaks constantly, based on where their favorite player is playing and such. There are raised up area's where players play other matches as well that aren't on main stage. What you see on the stream with the "10 people clapping" is just silly. There are thousands of people there man. Unless you've been to an MLG you don't have a freakin clue what you are talking about and it looks like you are shitting words. I was just at Columbus. Place was constantly packed. Friday-Sunday.

Ahem, the game flow is still vastly different. The only thing this does is allows everyone to start fresh.
