Nice article as always ! Indeed i was in the same mood as "The game keep doing wrong balance things" and then in 2020~ when there were nobody anymore on the balance Team, and we got only 1 patch par year, you realize that the game is still fun and these people were trying to bring more fun to the table !

I'm curious about the pro-player next patch, indeed they know the game, but without datas or stats i think it's hard to come up with new ideas (i mean good ideas). I think with the next patch i'm gonna re-play sc2 a bit !

For sure! It was so easy to be negative about things during years that, in retrospect, were actually an incredible time to be a fan. I'm just glad looking back that I had a chance to play and watch during that time. There was one period actually where there was one of either Proleague or GSL every single day of the week, and then I would ladder afterward - absolutely incredible.

I'm pretty curious about it as well, and I'm excited to check it out and see how the meta is. I also wonder whether they will keep iterating on the patch and put out updates more regularly, or whether this is a one-time thing or a once-a-year thing or someting. One concern I have is around testing since they don't have a dedicated QA team, e.g. the Adept bug that someone found. Curious how long stuff like that will take to get fixed/patched as it's found, again since there's no full time development team. Hopeful though that when all is said and done, it translates to a fun Katowice.
