EPTSeriously, I like it. Of course, it should be possible to turn off all the fluff, but it adds some flavour to the game. And you don't have to buy that shit to enjoy the game. And Blizzard gets money. So everybody's happy.
I am happy.

I'd imagine theyre saving stuff up for LotV at this point. Yup thats why I am not bothered by blizzard effort at heroes at all. All those features can benefit sc2 too | ||

Because a progamer doesn't want to be distracted by suddenly seeing other skins. You might believe or not believe it, but change no matter how minimal it is can distract you and slow down your decisions  | ||

Lots of people buying skins to show off, so what's the point to buy one if you'll know that everyone can just switch to the basic ones? I hope they'll force tournaments to use default ones though, but even that is not likely. What's the best place to promote your skins? 20-30k stream sounds about right. | ||

IMO adding skins are OK, it gives some variety for people who care about such stuff, but there has to be button to switch it off. I hate seeing them on my screen (zerglings are so annoying...) and I don't know many people who enjoy it. | ||

I think they should fully embrace it, and any other micro transactions/rewards for activity they can think of. Yeah you need an option to turn it off, otherwise you'd be limiting yourself with how creative you can get, which would suck. Also, where the automated tournaments at? It's been like 4 years, WC3 had them. Why no 2v2 or FFA support (again, WC3 had way better functionality for team games and ffa ladder). Think they are missing out on a lot of stuff that would keep people playing. (I've been playing some 2v2 lately which is why I'm feeling disappointed at how poor battle.net is from a casual standpoint. Back inbetween when I quit SC1 and started SC2, me and a friend used to play a ton of 2v2 automated tournaments, we both sucked at WC3 but it was still really fun). | ||

Maru does his trademark proxy hatch, sleep is prepared, workers fight ensues and then everybody ,esp the viewers, thinks : "OMG can we remove these silly party hats? Oo" Sc2 is about identifying, selecting, clicking and managing plenty of very small units, adding skings can really mess the game up, hope Blizzard know what they're doing .... | ||

Don't know about Dota2, but LoL designs skins so that their silhouettes are unique and easily recognised. Based on the party hats, can't say Blizzard gives a shit about that. | ||
