Read the source code, no malware or virus, compiled it and tested it and it worked. It's legit, and why the hell hasn't Blizzard done this themselves?

Obvious, Blizzard don't want tournaments to use it.
So the question is, which tournament have the balls to say: I don't care what you want Blizzard !
I for sure don't care and will use it.

I'm wondering how does this work in SC2 Starter Edition?
Can started edition players play with any race by using this trick?
I mean they are allowed to only play Human race but with this trick can they play zerg or protoss by swithcing race with the opponent?

Then Blizzard wouldn't give the tournament a license? No tournament. That's fine for Blizzard

And?
For what reason i need a license from them. Its not like they can shut down my tournament by law.
People ask for license to dont start a fight.
Perhaps they would win a law case in korea but for sure not in germany and most other country.
And if it comes hard... Russia the new location of all tournaments ^^.

Actually they can. They can sue your pants off, because you agreed to the license that said you need a tournament license when you installed the game.

too busy counting their money from wow and thinking of ways to make more money, will this feature make them money? not really. then blizzard doesn't really care.

just the way the company has become now days.. i really can't stand it. they make great games but they could be so much better if they tried to make the game better instead of selling more copies.

and no, selling more copies doesn't= a better game.

So many people don't understand, that only because there is something in the text when you install the game, do not mean that this is law. The law is the law. Not a text they show when you install the game. When the text is against the law, i can sign it all day long without any need to accept it.

PS:
-An agreement that was made after buying the game is worthless anyways.
If i had to sign it before i send the money to amazon its still 50/50 if this kind of userlicense is legal.
But show me a text after the deal: Is like change the contract after its sign.
In most states: Pay and deliver : the contract is done.

-Also i never did any kind of contract with Blizzard. I did a contract with Amazon.

I love reading internet lawyers facts, they always tell the law like it is, no bullshit from them.

This is a neat program, hopefully Blizzard already had something like this set up for the HOTS release so there is an official way of doing it.

You know very little abotu law (me too) dont you? Because I'm almost positive EULA's are not the most binding of contracts. And many have been fought and won.

they will just ban your ip from battlenet. this is the whole reason for 100% internet connection required, so blizzard has complete control. stop trying to be a cool kid who thinks he can outsmart everyone else.

And how exactly do they get my ip? All i have to do is not show the username in the stream.
Also blizzard know everything i said. They just hope that most people out there obey to everything they write.
Thats the main reason why company show this "license" before you install the game.
They know most users are idiots.

My god, this could be pretty revolutionary. Imagine for a moment that you had the perfect opening, then a bunker rush comes, you lose, yet you know it was in your power to pull off the win in that scenario, so you play it out again till you get it. Or lets say you have a problem with macro at around the 15 minute mark, you start jumping up to over one k, all because you have difficulty adapting from two base economy to three or four.

Also because this hack essentially works for any replay, we can step into a famous game with our friends at any point, perhaps a spectacular come back by mma, players could make a fun little challenge out of seeing if they could pull off the seemingly impossible victory with their friends just like our favourite programers. Also instructional casters can step into a replay and show a player how their supposed to execute something, or where they went wrong.

This does so much more than just cut potential fat from the game, it represents a significant potential change to the way we learn how to play Starcraft, (and it makes sense doesn't it? I mean someone practicing a song on piano shouldn't have to restart the whole piece because they want to practice one part). It all begins right here, just because a coder with some free time on his hands really hated battle net and probably cared a bit about tl ( :

A big problem with abolishing LAN and using purely internet for tournaments is the disconnects. Don't understand why Blizzard has never written a program or something to fix that, it can be done. But anyway's great that someone is doing it, hopefully this will bring us a step forward to problem-free LANs.

No large tournament will go through the hassle to sort out the legal issues if they were to use this.
