Does this mean a new balance patch will come at July 19th?

Iirc, all previous season switches have been accompanied by a balance patch. Correct?


Don't really think so, most likly just new maps. If there was a new balance change I think they would have put it on the PTR.

What happens if you aren't in a league and the ladder is locked?


As in, you're still doing placement matches? The system will still place you in a league, it's just that you won't be able to get promoted or demoted right after.

Guys a question, what happens if you make a new account and start playing during the lock out? do your placement matches not count and you don't get placed in any league during this?

I just got a new account and i want to know if i should play today (just got it) or wait till the lock out its over QQ.

I did this last season, you will just get placed in the initial league from placement (most likely will be platinum or diamond) and then you are stuck there til the lock is off, then you will move to where you are supposed to be

Might as well take this as an opportunity to get back into SC2 ladder since I fell so behind.

Only thing thats really a mental block for me is that I feel like my control group setup is bad. I do fine with it and could easily make masters with it, but I feel in the long run it'll eventually slow me down, and the fact it takes so long to relearn control groups I'm hesitant to switch. (ex. 1-cc, 2-main army, 3-production, 4+ other army/units).

Can anyone suggest an optimal control group setup for Terran?


1 and 2 army. 3 cc, 4 rax, 5 factory, 6 starport, rest are free for ebay/tech labs, etc


I was thinking 1,2,3 army, 4 cc, 5 production, 6+ anything. Also, why bind rax / fact / starport separately?

W/e u want dude, that's why hotkey keys customizable, we all have preferences.

I bind separately so you don't have to tab twice to get starport etc.

No, after this morning/tonight points will be locked and bonus pools cleared. For the next two weeks we'll be stuck in whatever position we are in for each league as games won't add or subtract points. Only our MMR will be affected, which we can't see anyway. After 14 days, Season 3 starts and there's the one match to play before players are placed into new divisions and possibly leagues based on the MMR that was changing in those two weeks.


That is about as wrong as wrong can be. Don't spread misinformation

You'll still have your bonus pool if you have some - it just won't GROW anymore. And yes, games will still matter in terms of winning and losing points. You just wont' be able to be promoted or demoted until next season.

NA BNET servers are down right now for a service update. I'm assuming this is the beginning of the season lock.

i hope the new maps will play out well. I'm a little sad I was on vacation all last week I didn't realize the season was locking so soon. I wanted to get my second account to masters but I didn't have time in 1 day to do it. Woe is me.

Bring on season 3! :D

The lock was supposed to start at 9am, but my bonus pool seems to have been still growing all day. I haven't been able to check in game, but my battle.net page has listed my bonus pool as going from 279 around 8:00a PDT up to 284 now at 4:00p PDT. Has the lock actually started?

Edit: Now that I'm in game, I see the expected 279 bonus pool. Battle.net must be reporting inaccurately, since it said I was up to 284 when I shouldn't have been, and was not.
