The problem is more the units balanced for 1v1, but not necessarily for 2v2. And Blizzard not investing more on team games from day 0. | ||

Just as a reminder, Zerg did quite well in the WTL 2v2 Tour back in 2022, with Dark/herO and Serral/Oliveira reaching the finals.  World Team League/2022/Winter/2v2 Tour | ||

The game isn’t meant to be balanced for 2v2… stoping people from trading minerals, which is literally intended game design, will not bring balance to the game mode. No idea what you are on about. | ||

Then try to directly petition Blizzard to accelerate the process, but even then I don't think this will lead to anything. Bluntly put, this week's tournaments are also there to test said multiplayer balance as they are the end result of the mapmaker contest held earlier. Is it too much to ask about not expecting miracles ? Because that's what you're asking, despite you denying it. | ||

all i did was suggesting a change to rules, to make games more diverse and maybe interesting to watch for the viewers. if wardi is interested in trying it out or not is his business, if hes happy with the quality of the games i guess there is no need to change things up for now. not sure what you two bozos are doing in this thread User was warned for this post | ||

I wonder what the right cadence is for these kinds of team tournaments. Back in BW Proleague, there was a period where 2v2 was being played regularly, but it was scrapped because it just wasn't nearly as interesting as 1v1. However, BW 2v2 has some flaws as an spectator esport because of how the balance works on standard maps (very rush/all-in heavy), whereas SC2 tends toward longer and more complex matches. I don't think SC2 2v2 is ever going to challenge 1v1 as the core of competitive SC2, but I do feel like there's room for some more 2v2 tourneys before we reach the saturation point of audience (and player!) interest. | ||
