Good interview... they obviously need some pro gamers to go help them because from what I saw in him, they are really scared that they would mess up.
With a pro gamer in their team or 3 from each race, they will be much more comfortable doing stuff and I'm sure the community will like it a lot more.
Hopefully they'll take our suggestions into action and we'll see some really good thing come out of this new expansion.
Thank you.

Also I think pros will fix the ball of death problem, at least for the esports scene. It is used even when it's not optimal. As players get better, it will be seen less.

Dodged the LAN question like a boss. Was expected though, but still

I wouldn't say he dodged it at all. He made it perfectly clear that there is no way lan is possible for the mass industry because the whole backbone of SC2 is through online. The only way to add Lan would be to rewrite the entire system from the ground up and I can assure you that Blizzard would never spend that kind of money to complete a task that has a chance to lose them even more money.

BUT. He did state that they are looking into doing something for tournaments and have even been brain storming a few ideas on how they can help. So what I got from it is, they know there is a problem with major tournaments running into lag and they are attempting to address it.

He sorta looks like the child of Artosis and Voldemort.

I think that the Swarm Host will be an effective map control unit. I mean at least one or 2 can hold a position similarly to the shredder.

Please, the mans hair is far too beautiful for that comparison.

You should do L'oreal adverts Kennigit.

There is one thing you always pick up from his interviews is how passionate he is when speaking about the game, balance and eSports. He did look really interested in the map question too, i'll be curious to see if anything comes of it.

perfect interview, i wish it could be longer filled with more awesome questions

i think we really need to stop ask them about lan tho, its starting to get annoying

ive really gained alot respect for blizzard lately as they explained more about how they go about balance things makes really much sense. its like they started with a stone and now they shaped it, they cant make it larger so they start off with a new and bigger stone to shape. the process might take a while and im sure the game will be more imbalanced the first few months but the end result is gonna be even more awesome

its true

Great interview, that last question kind of bummed me out tho. Almost sounded like they dont even care about the lan issues.

That was an awesome, awesome interview.

It even made me like Browder a lot more. Which I had not anticipated in any way. It was a nice insight to what is going on and what is not going on.

And thank you for keeping the trolling to a minimum. <3
