Now if they only added an option for BW sound effects along with the music, SC2 would be one step closer to greatness. At least in the sound department.

Blizzard commented on MMR decay a while back. Being demoted 3 or 4 leagues only due to MMR decay is not possible:

It is possible due to repeated MMR decay. It is well known how MMR decay works.

You can't use sc2ranks to see if the ladder distribution is skewed.

Ok, thanks for the info. I edited the post you quoted, too.

Frankly, it mystifies me why Brood War's sounds are so much more better. They're just more visceral, but also more distinguishable. You can kind of tell what's happening in a BW battle just from the audio, more clearly than in SC2 anyway.

And the unit sounds too! Before they removed MPQ editing I used to play with BW unit sounds and it was sooooo much better. I still miss it every day T.T

"Double clicking or Ctrl + Clicking a Hellion or Hellbat now properly selects all Hellions and Hellbats on screen."

yes. i hate this option, its like double clicking or ctrl + clicking a high templar now properly selects all high templar and archons on screen.

the option has no apparent benefit except to incite the players and strike a back handed nerf to terran users

League distribution fix doesnt mean anything if mmr decay ,as it was,is still active.


That's basically correct. Somehow a lot of players thought that "ladder redistribution" meant "reversing MMR decay" and "making the leagues appear on SC2Ranks to be 8/20/32/20/18/2". That's just not going to happen. The leagues never have and never will look like that on those sites because they don't have the data that Blizzard has.

Good impressions on 2.1 so far, love the music ofc and the new decal option is a quite cool feature, let's see what the extension mods will add to the game. Does anyone know if they adressed the ladder distribution problem already? Couldn't find anything related skimming through the patch notes.

The first clan tag I saw was a pair of boobs from some lingerie commercial. It's not that great.

Allowing customization without any limitation was dumb and I think they'll soon take this feature back.

how allowed exactly are custom decals in tourney play? and wcs play?

I was watching the wcs stream and i caught the tail end of mr bitter and rotti talking about the admin bitching at the players to not use decals. Do they get penalty points for using decals or anything like that?

my question was never answered in the decals thread :/
