a tools update can be for anything like the updater itself or the repair program, launcher or the editor. stuff like that. this is probably in preparation for the new patch.

Downloader, Updater, Repair, SC2 Launcher, SC2 PTR Launcher, and it made a new Backup.MPQ for Core.SC2Mod.

Looks like in preparation for an update. They did a similar update before PTR came out as well.

Not really. I watched both. Like he said, entertaining != skilled. You can't honestly think that MLG skill level is greater than or even close to equal to GSL skill level. If you really need it spelled out, think about it this way. Alot of MLG players didn't even QUALIFY for GSL.


i am realy pretty sick of the "player X did not even qualify for GSl, so he must be terribad"-argument.

1. many players did not qualify for GSL, SSKS for example could only qualify for the very first one, then got knocked out for the other two in the qualifyers... yet, is easy one of the very best SC2 players out there.
some of the games in the qualifyers had top level facing each other and the one that won those games normaly went pretty far in the GSL.

2. many Top EU and NA players can either not afford it financaly to spend 2 months in korea or can not take 2 months off from work/study to spend in korea.. or both.
the GSL is not a MLG or a Dreamhack where you can travel there on Tuesday, have a golly good weekend and be done and home on the next monday evening.

to realy see who is better, NA, EU or KR, you would have to launch a online tournament that allows players to face each other without financal, time or location constraints.
only then, and over the period of several months, you could see a picture starting to form.

Ok, Argument time is over. New patch is here.
SEA server got the patch right as I am writing this. It is true that this is not a balance patch. Just some changes to the general tools or a tools update and I don't even know what it means. Here is the patch notes

"StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty – Tools Update (2.1.2.2105)

I don't understand why people are against a patching?


Think it through LOGICALLY:

1. Both players get patched (so no one has extra practice time with the new patch version than the other).

2. Patching only happens.. when Blizzard thinks a matchup is BROKEN. It's like a car race, and you're telling the mechanic - WAIT, don't fix those cars, yeah yeah, it doesn't matter that the red car is shitter, let's watch them race first.... =/

3. Read 2.

4. Read 2 again.

1. Andrewiggin - If you really think that is a legit argument, please move onto step 2.
2. Think long and hard about your stupidity. If you still think that was a legit argument, move on to 3.
3. I don't really believe you would still be reading this, but if you are, surely you have realized the error in your ways. Please move onto step 4.

4. 1.2 is a freaking game changer. Protoss get's a HUGE buff. I really don't want to hear Rain complain that MC only won because of his buffs. Terran's freaking broken repair finally gets nerfed too, a strategy Terran loves to use. So yes, this would be extremely lame to do right before the finals.The game isn't broken.

anyway, the game still functions as "1.1.3". Clearly it's going to reset to 2.1 shortly after GSL is concluded.

Because it is unarguably the biggest tournament in the world.
It's just idiotic if they can't delay the patch two days.

lol this and many of the comments here are clueless. GSL is just one of the many tournaments? Yeah but it happens to have a 1st prize pay out of 85,000 USD. It is not just a tournament. And guys Blizzard would not troll the GSL with a game breaking balance patch before the GSL. a patch maybe but not a game breaking balance patch.

LOL... that's like saying OSL is one of many tournaments.

GSL is possibly the biggest SC2 tournament. The best players in the world are playing in it.

So it's OK if Rain wins because the broken repair isn't fixed, but it's not OK if MC wins because the broken repair is fixed? I'm not sure I follow the logic. The game should always be played in it's most balanced state. If Blizzard feels something is broken, and their patch is ready, they should release it regardless if tournaments, as they have done in the past.
Protoss is the easy race, but I'm sticking with it.
