But remember "The technology just isn't there yet".... OH WAIT! lol can't wait for the piracy to kick in once this gets out, its just a waiting game now. :D | ||

Just make LAN native to all editions, so there will be less piracy. It won't matter if you can only use the pro edition with a special account and password provided to tourney hosts. | ||

Because LAN is dead in the same way splitscreen on consoles is dead. Its rarely used compared to the online alternative, EXCEPT in tournament structures. This fixes the tournament thing. | ||

Allow LAN. All of China pirates the game, just like SC/BW Don't allow LAN except for tourneys. A couple thousand people people "boycott" the game, but they still get sales from China. Boy, tough decision | ||
