- You see the names in Korean because my partner - avgnerd - is Korean and he is the one who took the screenshot. Also, the screenshot is outdated a lot. -

A big thanks to the Unit Tester (made by: XGDragon) which helped me a lot with the balance of unit combos!
But Rahab helped even more! ;)

First of all, thanks for taking the time to make this. For the past 6 months before beta I've been playing Random Micro Arena and Random Micro Challenge. I love those games so I'm really glad someone is making it for SC2. I really like the tag buttons, so much easier than the original version.

I played this online a couple days ago and found a few bugs:

Sometimes my units would not spawn. I believe this happened when me and my partner both hit the "Start First" button at the same time.
I'm not sure if you meant this but the game never ends. Or at least, we never hit the max amount of rounds and if there is one it's not stated anywhere.
One time no one was joining so we tried to just play 1v1, but when it started the game put us on the same team even though I had placed us on opposite teams.

Suggestions:

in the SC version, it was all about using your caster units effectively and keeping them alive(if you got any) so I think adding in the other caster units would improve the game a lot (ghost, infestor, raven, even queen for the heals, phoenix etc) I see in your notes that you disabled the Infestor's Neural Parasite ability. I'm not sure why you did this, being able to snipe an infestor and make sure it doesn't NP your templar and storm your own army is what micro's all about. I feel taking Neural Parasite away makes it less interesting, especially because NP is totally avoidable. I feel you should keep it available for use.
One of my favorite combos was 2 Battlecruisers that could only use yamato and like 20-30 SCVs.
Sudden Death mode if the players are taking too long to die so that someone cant just keep running around with 1 zergling left.
The original was 4v4. Although usually you couldn't get that many people to join, it was awesome when you actually could get a full house because you could really use strategy to counter the opponents combo with a correct tag
