Make the game font little bigger like .2. Remove the skins for units for laddering. Make the size of the chat symbols bigger.

Remove the macro mechanics, and give an "AFK Clan" alert to the game / UI so it would delete inactive clan tags for others to potentially use lol

I would change that starting locations stay the same (2 geysirs) and all other expansions have just ONE high yield gas geysir.

Remove rapid fire or make a in game setting for adjusting it for every ability. It is important aspect of the current game, but we have to do the editing with notepad... Also it is very hard to use with grid hotkeys.

I would implement highground advantage again, like doing less damage shooting units on higher ground.
One crossed wire, one wayward pinch of potassium chlorate, one errant twitch...and kablooie!

I did not know that SC2 ever had high ground advantage. Was the advantage the same as in BW or was it something else?

SC2 highground advantage is that you cannot see the unit on the highground and that's it. Never had it like in BW, IMO because people don't like RNG based mechanisms(IIRC it's 40 % chance of miss if you shoot a unit on higher ground in BW)
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

I) I'd like to see slowing down economy growth and make maxing out harder. It is ridiculous when in a few minutes Zerg can just have 200/200 -- not in terms of balance, but in terms of watching and playing. Part of fun of BW is that there is a long mid-game and different army compositions. Only rarely we get a game like that in SC2, e.g. Dark vs Taeja this season.

It is just too quick and easy to get into the late game, which makes the games look all alike. I liked how maxing out in BW was bit of an achievement.

___

II) I'd remove bunch of units, e.g. Swarm Hosts, Thors, and Adepts. I still think Adept was a mistake - the degree in which it is good is overlapping with other Gateway units and anything special to it sucks. When they were introduced it was met with a huge criticism, and I still think it was valid back then. I fear that if people defend them today, it is just giving in. It seems to me quite clear that introducing them did not improve the game.

Fewer units is ok, but if there's a good one introduced for replacement that's always gucci

___

III) Change the way walling is done. It is too easy to have a hole in a wall adding too much of volatility and randomness

Move Warp Prism to stargate, It's an air unit. Imagine having a Medivac come out a factory.

Reduce every units speed mobility while increasing hit points and reduce firerate (with scaling down the hit box). Like that, SC2 could pretend have macro management unit (macro means generally " technology and construction management")

I think instant damage spell as EMP is too "all or nothing" (punishement).

I'd bring back Scrap Station as a ladder map.

Revert the economy changes. It was so much more fun and better in HoTS had way more fun in that game in 2015 than I've ever had in LOTV

Increase maximum supply to 250 or perhaps 300. Unit supply inflation is real in SC2, so armies look pretty puny, especially with pathfinding tending toward a ball.
