Nice video. I agree with pretty much everything, though I don't see that Tinker buff so significant.
Some my random thoughts how this patch will affect FFA (in addition for that what came up in the video)
- AM MK synergy will be more major now because of the Thunder Clap buff. This will decrease the variety of human hero combos because the full potential of MK needs AM now. - It will be much harder to fight undead air now with human. Imagine an UD with DK PANDA DL hero combo which will be the ultimate anti-human hero combo. This will make humans think about army compositions against UD. - Its pure stupidity to make a standard garg army as UD if elf has ALCH PANDA KOTG hero combo. UD should make necrowagon or fiend/banshee against that army. - People will learn to dispell an entangle now coz otherwise their hero will die.
How many of my arguments related to the time when Pad was an admin? None of them. I was talking about the few last years.
I am too lazy to counter-argue to Cumulos message. Anyway, IMO it was as rational as his view about the current FFA Ladder bot which is so freaking good according to him. And about Hightac: I can understand that he always wants to defend his fellow W3A admin buddies.
The question is, can w3arena use this patch? probably cant so it wont affect us.
W3Arena is a sinking ship. FFA will surely start to use the new patch and BNET asap.
Tyrant is right. And aarni, why do you dislike arena that much? you wanna go back to bnet and play with hackers?
Why do I dislike Arena?
* W3A admins are completely brainless (what would be better example for this than their autoban system?) * Low player base mainly because admins had no clue what they were doing (W3A had much potential) * Autoban system (did i already mention this?) * Admins have been talking 2 years about the ladder reset but it never happened. Ladder reset is one of the most basic things but they don't even have a coder who could make that happen. * Ancient 1.26 patch. New 1.29 patch is the final nail in the coffin, nobody wants to play 1.26 after this. * Very unstable server, it has been down almost everyday lately.
etc. etc.
There aren't even much hackers on bnet. I also trust that Blizzard will make updates for bnet.

Sounds great. I want: * Anonymousness * Good statistics * Random hero maps as well as standard hero maps

It needs to provide a great service where people enjoy playing their ffa games cross-realm with low latency. It needs to attract new people where they explore the great possibilities this game mode offers compare to plain old 1v1/RT. And please don't come up with your own website. FFAMasters.net should become the one stop shop for all your FFA needs. Therefore I suggst to fully integrate it into our current website. People can see the current ladder with stats of all players (just like Battle.net Ladder Page or w3arena). Due to the auto saving functionality of the bot people can download all replays from the games played. This is to improve your game and report cheaters or rule breakers.
100% agreed with massmoretankz here.
And when it comes to funding, I am sure that FML Patreon donaters would agree to put some of the patreon money for this.
