The wait time for top SC2 players is nothing.

When I was top 5 RT in Frozen Throne we had a channel for all the top players just so we could get a rated game without waiting for 2 hours.

This kind of problem is in no way unique to SC2. It's hard to say what Blizzard did is "wrong."

Talking about how unfair this is to TLO is kind of missing the point, I think.

Long queues plague the highest level of play for any kind of game with a ladder setup. I'd love to see a solution in the form of some sort of "casual ladder" where you can queue for a match in a much wider MMR "girth" without it affecting your rating.

Make it happen, Blizzard! I'm sure I'm not the first to propose such a thing.

This is false. We oppose injustice whomever it targets. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=126088


Its still a non issue and clearly, many people including pros share accounts what Blizzard has an issue with is that they don´t want people laddering for others(ie look at all the accounts that they banned for being sold accounts), they did it on stream and Blizzard just told them to please not do it.

People are blowing this way out of proportion, but I guess thats the norm here.

As if Blizzard would watch it, sb told them who dont likes Take or myb just TL. As if Blizzard really starting to watch what happens. For example...on each WoW Realm you have players with names that violate the rules...but nothing happens. and this is something they can just check without any people...just a good database to track such names.

Honestly sb told them this happend and they went on. I wrote an eMail how just "lol" this is. Blizzard started with accountsharing and tournaments shared accounts and they did nothing. And know they react Oo. And in the end, it happend in Germany. Their accountcontract is not valid in Germany at all. So if something happens just go to court. German court...not US court cause this would be just stupid...cause us courts are just rofl, who has more money is in the right...and Huk/TLO will have zero problems and will win easy.

Do you really want LAN?

In all seriousness, I can understand why Blizzard is doing this, it sends a very clear message that account sharing is not accepted. Not even for pros, which should deter players from participating in account sharing. Props to blizz for standing behind their policy I guess...

So if a player in EU want goes to north america to perform in a tournament he first has to spend 30euro(? not sure on the euro amount) on a new account to be able to do so? Blizzard has become money-craving idiots in my eyes. They claim to be catering to e-sports but I really think that is just a way for them to earn more money.


Well if you want to make money off SC2 you may want to spend additional money for an account. I still can't understand that so few selfproclaimed "progamers" have multiple accounts for the different regions. Sure Blizzard could fix this by allowing multiple accounts and crossrealmplay but Blizzard is a business for christ sake. If I was good enough to make money with Sc2 I'd buy as many copies of sc2 as necessary to keep my training steady because it's my job -.-

This is basically Blizzard saying: "don't share accounts". Stop reading so much into it.

In addition, Huks MMA problem is pretty unique or to phrase it differently the normal customer will never have this problem. I don't know what i would do in his situation but breaking the user agreement is not the way to go... and Blizzard is sending exactly this message by threatening bans on those who do.



So basically Huk has to lose on purpose 10 games in a row just so he can play the game?

Makes sense.


kinda hard to lose games when you can't play the game :D

At 1st i thought this is some kind of mistake in translation but the more i read on the more i believe that Blizzard Community manager has shot himself in the foot, why make himself look bad in front of a massive eruo tournament when you know for a fact that you can't stop account sharing?

The thing you are trying to protect (MMR integrity), SHOULD NOT COME AT THE EXPENSE OF PLAYERS AND VIEWERS, get it? (if not, just quit your job cos you don't deserve it)

see how hard you'd now fucked your PR team now?

at 1st i thought this post of a troll at blizzard but was wrong, lol (sigh....)

So now we have found that the source of the mediocre new ladder maps is that Blizzard are more interested in busting the balls of the people that have helped sc2 become popular. Go figure.

They all have multiple accounts. Blizzard made their money.

This is an unbelievebal cool event. Blizzard should support this instead of fck this up....

Actually they should show their excitement but they choose to be assholes...

[edit] They just should have said: "You've got problems with your account? we will find a solution, eventually grand you 2 more, but please do not share" at least.

retarded request when they are doing so little work on the game; they have a team of 50 people thats supposed to do everything;

they released the game BEFORE they even finished drawing the icons for certain upgrades. thats how under-manned they are when it comes to SC2.

The ladder is a joke in terms of maps, management, points vs mmr etc.
The channels on b.net cannot be moderated by anyone the way you could in SC1 and WC3.
Imput limit Reached.
The map search function is shit. You are never able to find any maps because they are not aranged alphabetically at any times and they are never aranged in likely of match when you search for something.

You might search of "ESL" and then before you get to click on the map you want you have to scroll 7 pages and search for the map among other maps that don't even have "ESL" in them.

YOU ARE A JOKE enforcing crappy rules like this but not fixing your battle.net 2.0. I would seriously rather play SC2 on Battle.net 1.0 with the SC BW interface !



i agree...

huk did 20 ladder games or less i dont get why this is a problem?
sen played with softballs account in nasl...
some coaches from NA are sharing accounts with their students...

blizzard is not making friends, acting like this :-(

i think that blizzard activision never cared about e-sports, they just wanted to get the koreans to pay for their tournaments, when blizzard couldnt get korean tournament hosters to pay them licensing fees, they made a whole new game and forced everyone to switch over to it so they could enforce their rules and make it popular so that they could justify shutting down the brood wars servers
