I don't think so. I think it will come with the patch. Look at the last item in the list (I think it was the last item, before the bugs).
If it doesn't come with the new patch then they will probably wait till SCRE comes out then patch BW with match making too. It will be on both games since someone who has BW can play against somebody who has SCRE in the same match.

It says "added support for Fish" which is the Korean third-party server with its own ladder, but it isn't matchmaking.
We'll see if they add it to BW in a future patch when SC:R comes out.

Yeah but doesn't that mean the fish ladder will be built in?

Otherwise they lose a part of sales potential. Many people would jump at trying BW if they knew a functional matchmaking exists. nobody likes to look for games in channels, especially new kids I assume. It takes overcoming shyness. Not only that, when you do find a partner, if you're a newbie, you'll get stomped the first 500 games. :p

Yeah but doesn't that mean the fish ladder will be built in? It'll probably be built into the Fish server which will can be selected from the official list of regions/servers, but I wasn't aware that the ladder had automatic matchmaking like SC2. Having the ladder and ratings will still be useful.

Do you think that Matchmaking and ladder systems will be the same of SC2,with Leagues and MMR? Honestly, I don't care that much about old graphics, I just want fair matches and a ladder to climb without having to install other programs .

To play devil's advocate it'd mean valkyries are a suitable solution to mass air. Not that you go mass air against Terran often anyways...
The dragoon bug fix is fairly large. Sergei Ozhigin claims to have lost in the Sky 2001 OSL due to this. I do think this is for the better though.
All in all I think these are good changes, and would hardly affect the balance.

Valks already are a suitable solution to mass air. This might impact valkonic builds in tvz a bit, but its probably going to have the biggest impact in just strengthening the trend for air battles in TVT. It is a balance change. But fixing a legitimate glitch that did nothing but impede the game is totally fine lol.On March 27 2017 04:34 raff100 wrote: Do you think that Matchmaking and ladder systems will be the same of SC2,with Leagues and MMR?

Even if it didnt (I hope it does ofc) you wont have to install diff programs to get third party ladders.

StarCraft and BroodWar are now officially free? That's really exciting, especially for inviting new players.

Im confused, will the original game have matchmaking or that's only included in the remastered?

what is the 80s Kerrigan glitch? googled and this is basically the only place I saw it mentioned
|
Wow this is very cool that BW will be completely free. Does it mean that BW:R will be free too?

I think there s way too much hype around this; we have all seen what happens when blizzard gets involved in making something "new" . People where getting excited for sc2, just like this now, and we all see where that went.
