Starcraft 2 news » Call to Action: June 28 Balance Testing

We’ve published a new Balance Test Map titled “(4)FrostLE (3.3.2 Balance v1.0).SC2Map” which contains the following changes that we’d like your feedback on:

Zerg

  • Queen's AA weapon range increased from 7 to 8
  • Spore Crawler's Root time decreased from 6 to 4

We encourage you to head on into the Balance Test Map to test these changes out! To find it, enter the Multiplayer section and navigate to Custom. The Balance Test Map will be at the top of the list under ‘Top Played.’

We’ve also updated the Extension Mod for balance testing, so you can play around with these changes on a variety of maps. Those of you interested in trying out the Extension Mod can do the following to get started:

  • Navigate to Browse Maps on the Custom Games menu
  • Select a map and click the Create with Mod button in the lower right corner
  • Choose to sort by Blizzard Mods from the dropdown list at the top of the screen
  • Select the “Balance Test Mod” Extension from the list and then hit Create Game

If you're interested in the StarCraft II Balance Team's reasoning behind these potential changes, you can check out Senior Designer David Kim's Community Feedback Update and his recent post.

We’d like to remind you that feedback based on playtesting is the most helpful information you can share with us at this time. We kindly ask that you spend some time playing games on the test map before offering your thoughts on the changes listed above. We look forward to hearing your feedback and please remember that none of these changes are final.
