Thread: Rated Wolves' Den in 3.1 (Possible Issues, Solutions)

I really hope the 8v8 thing they talked about is just a small scale battleground (which would be about damn time) and not a direct replacement to the arena (ie 8v8 season ladder, just no please).

Arena is the place where each person's actions are supposed to matter hence the size should be kept small.
A 8v8 battleground (say capture the flag or something of the like as suggested above) , in contrast to the 72man 3-way zergfests, would be breath of fresh air though and hopefully would make them see it's a better option than just putting out 72man maps one after the other.

As for the language point, if people would be able use it to wintrade then SE wouldn't have done it's homework (wouldn't surprise me tbh) but in any case it has no place in pvp, maybe if the datacenters shared a queue but otherwise no, at best it's just a silly useless feature and at worst it makes the queue worse. So yeah remove it.

As for the synced/unsyced thing, I agree that the rated arena should be synced, though i don't think this is what they'll do, and maybe let the 8v8 battleground (if it is that) be unsynced.

Kudos on the initiative, maybe they'll listen/communicate for once.
