Haha, the changeling story is awful. As for the maps, do they look smaller than BW 1v1 maps to anyone else?

I dunno, they did say there would still be 4 player maps used for 1v1s I think? They aren't smaller than Bifrost or Blitz really?

They are much, much smaller. Blizzard explains it here
Actually, the smaller map size of a 1v1 map is something we like in general in multiplayer maps -- we like to keep them as lean as possible. Keeping map sizes down translates into fast-paced gameplay with constant interaction and conflict among players, and it keeps scouting relevant and effective throughout the course of the game.

In addition, a map that is even slightly too large could cause scouting on that map to be more luck-based than strategic. However, a map that is too small favors rush strategies too heavily. A good-sized map allows for different strategies and styles of gameplay that use the whole map without favoring one strategy too strongly over another.

So they are steering away from macro-based play?

Later in the article they talk about how they still have allot of expansions because the competitive community likes it that way.

Can I have that instead of the mothership plz? ;o


seriously. I mean, the "Mother Ship" sounds more like a story unit anyways. Sounds like it maybe shouldn't be on the battlefield. That's how i feel at least

Yeah I was wondering what that thing was as well, there's also something similar in the background of this picture. Could be the same thing I don't know.
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt
