Looking forward to it! I'm not up to date with the mapping scene at all right now, mapcraft can only help with that. Now I just have to hope that I'll have stable internet by then...
Any appetizer of the things to come? ;)
Why does protoss lose two units and get no real replacement for them and zerg loses one and gets a replacement that's actually better? We get no interceptor like air unit. We get no cloak field unit. Then zerg gets a unit that can make any unit a detector. That screws over protoss completely. Not to mention the swarm host, infestor, and brood lord all being units producing more units. It's like they hate protoss. Banelings burrow movement, this is so messed up. Blizzard is screwing up the esport game.
Erm... Carriers and motherships are pure shit. Purely gameplaywise of course, as a broodwar veteran I will miss carriers a lot (well, not much changes, as I can't build them in WoL as well). Let the terrans deal with a completely useless unit targeted at casual gamers from now on. I dislike most of the new units, but protoss really doesn't have much to complain, and I say that as a protoss player. The tempest will probably be a very potent addition to the already hated protoss deathball.
The replicant seems like a pretty abusable unit, not sure if you would see it in competetive play at all, but out of all the units shown today this one is imo the most likely to not make it into the final game.
The warhound is so ugly btw. :/ Why not just introduce the Goliath MK2 with those anti-mech weapons instead of a machine gun?
And yes, baneling burrow movement is indeed quite ridiculous.
So tell us, what did you expect? It looks like a DotA in "not very serious" mode, just something to play for fun (and ladderpoints, okay). Like as if at any time there would be a 1million$ tournament for it like there is for DotA2.
Wow I'm so overstimulated from all the news right now (there were some esports news as well, team mergings and such).
Blizzard DotA looks actually pretty cool and fun, I'd still like it more if they put the working hours into HotS, but well, will be a good mod I think. If only this would set an end to all the DotA-clones made in the community, nobody needs them.
Very pumped for HotS singleplayer, the dark theme of the story seems good, let's just hope it won't take a direction like the leaked ending.
Some of the new units seem like shit, others very cool. Will wait for more infos, I'm f5ing TL like nonstop.^^
What can I say, awesome game! If you haven't played it yet you pretty much have to. I haven't played the director's cut and am not sure about the changes, but it'll still be good.

Just thought of this map. Will it ever get released?

Maybe someone wants to stream this for us poor europeans? If that is okay with the mapmakers of course.

Ah well, MLG sure did deliver the entertainment for the evening. I just hope Mozared is okay.

Not to speak of the new rubric "Eiviyns love corner", where he helps lonely mappers with his infallible pick-up lines.

I can think of worse problems with COD, especially regarding esports...

Can an admin plz change Eiviyns user title to "womanizer"?

Do you say that when you look at Zelda: A Link to the Past too?

Anybody played it back on DOS/Win95? :)
