Blizzard just released a video on their EU Facebook page going over some of the new features coming to patch 3.7.

https://www.facebook.com/Starcraft.eu/videos/1214608551937675/
edit: looks like the Facebook video got taken down, but I'll update with a working official link when it eventually pops up
edit2: mirror https://goo.gl/UKLG11

In addition to separate MMR per race, we will be getting:
  • Collections tab to organize skins, animations, decals, portraits, emoticons, and announcers
  • Possibly purchasable Roach, Marauder, and Stalker skins
  • Purchasable announcer packs, starting with Kerrigan, Abathur, Raynor, Swann, Artanis, and Alarak. The new announcers can be used with any race.
  • Ability for workers to spray decals on the ground
  • Option to display portrait alongside town hall instead of clan icon
  • Nova co-op commander


edit3: official video


edit4: New Marauder, Roach, and Stalker skins


edit5: Patch 3.7 may arrive on October 18. The season lock is on October 11, and the new season begins on October 18. Blizzard plans on implementing separate MMR per race with this upcoming season, so it can be expected for the other features to be included alongside it.

Personally, I love these. Except the one with workers spraying details, that seems pointless.

Not pointless. It's a new addition to the BM meta. Imagine how tilted players would get when their base gets marked from a scout and they would have to stare at it the entire game. Mind games.

Or when a player pulls the boys for an all-in and is constantly spraying decals right before winning.

Just spray your own on top of it.

I wish this came out this week ._.

Seems nice. It's nicer that they're looking for ways to revitalize the income revenue. Maybe they don't have their heads all the way up their butts.

I probably won't indulge in any of it but I'm sorta semi glad it's there in a distant way so there's a way and means for more important patches and support to continue to be provided.

Probe comes in your base and sprays a decal of photon cannons next to your mineral line. Spend 2 seconds deciding if it's a sign of things to come.

They already did that with mission packs/commanders, I don't see what the problem is anyway.
