As many times as i've seen "please add tournament support" over the last year, if Blizz doesn't add it... then i'll be convinced they listen to nothing. This is a full on minor patch, not just a revision that we've seen so far in HotS. If they have any sense, they will put it in or at least announce it.

I understand being upset as Blizzard usually takes forever to do shit. But did they not add resume from replay? Did they not add chat channels when everyone was screaming? Did they not create the arcade?
They do listen, they do talk about these things, it's just that they take forever to implement anything.

To be fair, we shouldn't have had to ask for chat channels.

Does this mean soon, or "Blizzard soon"?

"making a number of improvements to StarCraft II. [...] Whether you're [..], an eSports enthusiast"

ability to create tournaments in game? I believe! If they also add an API so we could get players and tournaments information that would be perfect

My guess/wishlist

- SC2 multiplayer becomes a free to play game entirely.

- SC2 shop has been added and allows mapmakers to sell their maps or simply have a "donate" button if the mapmaker feels like having the map free is the best choice but still allow people to reward the mapmaker with the effort. A % of the money goes to Blizzard

- Team Portraits. In the same shop people could buy portraits of their favourite team (if they uploaded it) which directly supports the team. % goes to Blizzard.

- LAN mode for SC2, after other games like Dota 2 implemented it Blizzard finally decided to implement a way of LAN'ning. Only works after logging in to Battle.net however. But during the game a drop of connection doesn't stop the game anymore.

- Tournament mode for up to 256 players which requires a 2 dollar fee to enter (like Hearthstone Arena) for every participant. The tournament has several options, you can set a map pool which can be anything as long as it's on Battle.net in the region. (Best of 7 mono battles?).

The tournament mode has options for various tournament formats including extended series.

i only agree with the tournament one, but without having to pay (WTF?), that's really dumb.. i hope they NEVER EVER put microtransactions into SC2..

almost all of these "suggestions" you just saw them on lol and directly applied them to sc2, but that's not how it works because in lol they can do that because it's free to play, microtransactions are retarded in a game that you already paid 50 euros for

The reason why, imo, the chat channels arent used very much, well gen chat kind a is on the US server, is because with the small font size and everyone having the same font color, it gets boring and stale really fast.

Would love several chat channel improvements with larger font size and font color options two of the improvements.

Would be cool to maybe start off with a few font colors then we can unlock more.
