Over at Sc2mapster we have been investigating the mysterious appearence of several new data files on the bnet servers. Earlier today another breakthrough was made when korean servers started displaying what appear to be new portaits, achivements and possibly a korean specific feature.They show unique achievments for the winner and competitors of last years Blizzcon, a new "red terran eagle" achievement along with rank-specific achievments. There are also "Chinese" Dragon/Fearless/Opera portraits and decals as well as a MercenaryClover decal that can be found in the map editor.
Following the patch earlier this week certain achievement's text were incorrectly replaced with text referencing rank and blizzcon achievments. Additionally there were achivements for winning "IGR" games. Taken together these clues may point to the release of features Soon (TM).
Edit 1: Very odd. The new portraits and achievments just came up on the EU servers but they still have the korean (pepsi) icon. + Show Spoiler +
Edit 2: If those of you who attended Blizzcon would open your feats of strength achievement tab in-game you will notice that your Blizzcon Icon has just changed (in the old one the star was filled in, new one has star blank).
"Medals" after Grandmaster medals makes me wonder if they are for Blizzard All-Stars (aka. Blizzard Dota) as they remind me of these two colors used here:
You believing the Korean flag on a starcraft site, is almost blesphemy.. Bloody canadians
I wonder what those portraits are for though.. Maybe national champions (Highest ladder person from each country?), since Blizzard has all the info.. Would be kinda sweet
A league above Grandmaster? Well, I guess that's it then...

<snipped picture>
Or not since the white part is the fade effect surrounding edges of both of the teardrops. Pretty stoked for anything new, just give us info about Heart of the swarm already
Hmmm very interesting... With those (assuming Korean only) Korean medals it seems like Blizzard really wants SC2 to be successful in Korea. Looks like it is going to be some sort of Korean only league??

I think this is the most likely explanation. Blizzard will have a ladder for Blizzard DOTA!
Wasn't Blizzard finally able to negotiate things with KeSPA? I remember reading a thread about it in the BW forums. Perhaps this has something to do with it.

It's very common practice to make posters with Blue and Orange/Yellow theme.
In-game tournament win tracking maybe? They're structured just like race win icons (terran 10, 25, 50, 100, etc) where they get progressively more elaborate. Tournament wins like in War3 would make sense but I don't know how "IGR" factors into that.

I'm hoping for this 100 fucking percent.
Just a hint of the War3 greatness would supremely get me back into the game!
If those of you who attended Blizzcon would open your feats of strength achievement tab in-game you will notice that your Blizzcon Icon has just changed (in the old one the star was filled in, new one has star blank).

Nope, it doesnt look like the P***i logo. It kind of reminds me of free for all achievment icons. Only time will tell. Mmmm thirsty.
damn I hate finds like these. I get so damn curious and get hopes up for something someone posts in the thread.
now I got all excited because maybe blizzard will make their dota as a league with ranks/points and decals.I'd probably play that ladder more than sc2 ladder.
And then its gonna turn out to be something completely different and I get all dissapointed.

There is no white space between two colors. The white u see is just on the ends of the two colors, thats why u think it's Red White and blue T_T
hehe using cola is nice, but when you switch over to pepsi for some time you can stay awake for +1 additional day hehe. Always switch to pepsi when i wanna do some all nighters in a row.
I was thinking about this : there are actually 6 icons instead of 4 for the korean/pepsi(lol) "league", could be related to results in the gsl so it could be one for: -ro32 -ro16 -ro8 -ro4 -runner up -gsl winner = 6 different icons !
Would make sense for me , maybe it's something special for the super tournament. I think it's gsl related anyway.

You heard it here first
It's Korean Flag - To all of you retarded idiots.
User was warned for this post
are you sure you aren't romanian?
Lolllll but that meme is sooo old! In the meantime... I do wonder what this means. What I HOPE for is in-game tournaments, as I feel we have a good amount of leagues, or Blizzard DOTA ladder... Either would be amazing!
i think blizzard is aware of the market/profit potential of DOTA. its only safe to assume that those icons are dedicated to dota ladder. its been mentioned before, b.net 2.0 and sc2 mapmaking has so much potential that it can run dota ladder on the side.

ye i also found some strange behaviour of portraits on EU, a friend of mine had that nightelf portrait by mistake, no not the one you get with the collector's edition, another one with a different colour^^
Maybe it is a pepsi logo, disguised as a Korean flag. Welcome to the new age of advertisement. I mean, look at the posts in this thread.. a lot of talk of pepsi from it!

All of the ones mentioned in op are new.
What ? What's exactly the differences ? Cauz there are really half of them that are already in europe server. Dunno about asia.
Yah the Left 4 Dead, aiur chef. old CE, old decal, old blizzcon etc...are all old. But the ones I mentioned in OP (recolored CE, new blizzcon, red terran eagle, rank, pepsi etc..) are all new.
Some sort of in-game Korean league, where half are invites and half qualify through ladder ranking, whereby replays are distributed across all regions for everyone to watch and learn from?

Considering these same Korean icons are appearing in EU as well, they're probably related to some Korean event (like GSL). If it were in-game tournament tracking it would have flags that are more localized to each region (like the EU flag or something).
Note to everyone else in this thread: stop derailing. This find could be something really cool, don't shit up the thread with nonsense.

Would Blizzard put the korean flag on an "international" game mode? The evidence from the patch "achievement glitch" earlier this week points to a mysterious IGR with achievements for winning "X/30/40/X/X/X AMM games in IGR."

I wouldn't be surprised. I've long believed that "SC2 Phoenix" on the leaked release calender was Blizzard's DotA custom map.
That doesn't explain the Korean flag symbol in the icons tho. I'm leaning towards a GSL related thing.

YES this makes sense!!
The only other thing I can think of is a FFA ladder.
Considering these same Korean icons are appearing in EU as well, they're probably related to some Korean event (like GSL). If it were in-game tournament tracking it would have flags that are more localized to each region (like the EU flag or something).
Note to everyone else in this thread: stop derailing. This find could be something really cool, don't shit up the thread with nonsense.
Would Blizzard put the korean flag on an "international" game mode? The evidence from the patch "achievement glitch" earlier this week points to a mysterious IGR with achievements for winning "X/30/40/X/X/X AMM games in IGR."

Yeah good catch, this is correct. That also explains the Korean flag. It's weird why those icons also appear on EU and China though... maybe just for uniformity.
The icons have just appeared on the US servers
Two questions 1) How are "Internet Game Room" achievements in any way differenent from the standard "win X games" achievements? Its still one user, one account right?
2)Why are these achievements on the EU and US servers?
1. I think they just for PC Bangs( Correct name i guess). Blizzard has agreement with PC bangs in Korea so yah.
Yah what? Is it just like a reward for playing in a internet cafe as opposed to from a home computer?
its probably a separate PC baang ladder,maybe it might have a LANish environment..I don't know.
There's one thing unexplained... the icons are animated ingame. So what are we looking at in this thread? Snapshots of the animated icons? Or is there some glow/shine-overlay kind of thingy that is put on top of the icons to make them animated?
Another thing that is weird is that there's no patch planned soon... kinda blizzard-like to mysteriously introduce some stuff... keeps us on our toes I guess.

2. Dunno, but I would assume that these achievements won't be used on EU or NA servers( There is NO US server..). They just are there in the MPQ files i guess.
I'm not sure how PC baang accounts work in Korea for SC2. Leased game time would be my guess.
As for the icons, the weird part is that they're linked directly from the regional Battle.net websites and not extracted from the MPQs. I agree that they probably won't be used, though.
From what I've learned from inteviews and posts; Blizzard has a deal with pcbangs, they get a bunch of accounts and their customers can play sc2 without buying the game themself. I believe that, compared to the average income of a korean, sc2 is quite expensive.
But what the problem is, is that these accounts are used daily by all kinds of people, so the MMR is all over the place. I think they are going to introduce a new league for these accounts, which will most likely be unrated or rated differently.
As why the achievements appear on the EU/NA servers too? I guess they want to keep all servers consistent, content wise, because that would be easier to maintain than all kinds of different configurations. (From a technical point of view)
If you look at people's achievements on battle.net website. If you go to the Feat of Strength tab, it shows a grayed out AMM ranking, with the "pepsi" logo.

Hmmm, the icons and IGR being used for PC bangs would make sense. SC2 hasn't been doing too hot at Korean PC bangs, so some new features and gimmicks might be used to reinvigorate the Korean SC2 scene.
Was wondering what the IGR stuff was, sucks its only for Korea. If they are giving badges to Blizzcon winners it'd be so baller if they did that for GSL and MLG too.

Blizzard has said that Blizzard DOTA will be a SC2 custom map. Ladders for all the Blizzard custom maps would be a nice addition that I would love to see.
Dude those looks really sweet, are those coming out on Blizzcon. I hope its not just photoshop, it would be very disappointing. But, i hope its released to the public.
I would love to see custom ladders too, but they still have yet to release tournament feature, so we will probably have to wait til HotS (most likely Blizzard DotA at the earliest, which will probably come out with HotS).
Can someone explain the difference between the four icons for each league. Bronze for example: Normal Added silver plate bit in lower centre Added tusk things Added star
The star is obviously number 1 in division, but what do the rest mean?

Thanks all
Normal - Top 100 Silver Plate - Top 50 Tusk - Top 25 Star - Top 8
(I am doing this off of the top of my head but I am like 99% sure I am correct, or close enough you get the point)

Nah, SC2 isnt expensive really - but if you take SC1, as long as the PC Bang had SC1 installed you could just go there and make a new account for free in 5 seconds and play, whereas now you have such a hassle with creating a new account and associating it with your SSN etc...
I guess people feel its a lot different to do this type of thing for an RTS over an MMORPG. It definitely cuts down a lot on the random 'hey lets try SC2?'.

Jinro can you tell us anything about what these "IGR"achievements are supposed to be about? What is a IGR game and how does it differ from a normal game? Do you need a special account or just your regular account? And what is the point of adding these achievements?

Yeah, that's what this whole thread is about. I don't know that I'd go as far to say it's a LAN implementation though, because it doesn't really add up. If anything, it sounds like accounts that are flagged as IGR accounts will get additional rewards (portraits and achievements) by just playing on the ladder.

But that doesnt really explain why they would show up on NA servers. Just an interesting note, there are 6 "reward stars" and 6 new (recolored) portraits.
So, why would Korean gamers need their own logo for a league, unless Blizzard is going to integrate everyone, and that will be the way to distinguish the Korean progamers, but that idea doesn't seem likely at all
I see, in china the panda is special, Just like the UD in WoW that they needed to cut for the china release, its the same, theyve clearly replaced the panda icon for china.
UPDATE: Blizzard has just announced on the korean site that players can earn these achievements by playing in PCBangs. Here is a rough google translate
PC! PC room perks for players, a great portrait! UTC Author: kichyo / / 19 May 2011 06:22 UTC 69 69 PC! PC room perks for players!
PC! PC room playing Starcraft II and Have a nice portrait of the hero! ? The portrait is too difficult gajigi pomna calm? ? Other players in the dressing room like some of the great portrait bureowoman member? MUST HAVE! StarCraft II players MUST HAVE item if you do have! To introduce a set of six kinds of portraits!
•How to participate •. StarCraft II nearest participating PC will find the room. •Battle.net에 Quick connect to Battle.net to participate in war.

PC and ran into the room with friends and enjoy StarCraft II. Fun and a great portrait, two rabbits you can catch all!
Ah okay, so it pretty much is what we thought. Play in PC Baangs, get portraits. I don't know how it distinguishes PC Baang accounts from home user accounts, but that's just my unfamiliarity with the system.
I feel a bit slighted that they have options that are unavailable to us
I suppose I would never go to an internet cafe to play SC when I could just play it at home anyways tho.
I dont understand why koreans would go play in a cafe when they can play at home too though
Would like to see blizzard monitorize this soemhow.. like.. they issue special licenses to the PC Bangs and they get $0.20 per hour played from the owners of it. Different types of licenses would allow users to quickly create a new id (or log on with an existing one) - or simply play as a guest if they want to play customs.
Monitorization from blizzard would result in them giving more attention to the game and making it better for everyone

I don't see why I would play at home when I can play at a pcbang with friends and not be hassled by parents
Not exactly my point of view since I live alone in the US where these places don't really exist, but a huge reason why sc1/bw got big was that people hang out at pcbangs as a social thing. Your comment is like saying why should I go watch a movie at a theater with friends when I can watch it for free/better audio/no crappy audience/whatever else at home.

SC:BW's popularity in SK exploded because of PC bangs. It's how it all started. BW history yo.
I dont understand
Why would anyone want to play in an internet cafe when they could play at home?
Do people not have home computers in Korea?
Koreans are more about social gaming (i.e. going out with friends to play) than in NA, where people sit by themselves at home and talk through headsets. Just social differences, is all. You'll find this trend a lot when comparing East and West social trends; West tends to be more independent/individual.

i read that you have to play at a pcbang to earn them. play 60 wins at a pcbang and you get them all but you can't get them through the lossbot which a lot of people have been using.
