Can't you turn it off in settings once joined?

Go to the discord.

Look, with the 1v1 ladder system, 1v1 ladder maps should dominate the team map space. Everyone plays at least a little 1v1 right? Its massive free advertising for any map that gets chosen in the ladder rotation.

No. 1v1 and team games are very different.

Your assumptions are way off the mark...

@moses_the_red said in Tips for team map design:

Its also worth noting that people quit pretty often in team games if they seem to be going badly.

I don't think that is the case at all.

Larger team games, the lobby can take a tiny bit of time to fill so the incentive to play it out is there. Rarely do I find people leaving during the game, even when doing badly. If it actually does happen, it is very easy to not have them in your game anymore (the community isn't THAT large).

What would be involved in helping hide maps/mods?

@FtXCommando said in League System Development: Division Icons Wanted:

Have you guys looked at how many people are at rating ranges before throwing out ideas?

Do you have the breakdown of the rating ranges?

I thought the target can change without right click? So targeting the acu for example, then right click to move, the target may change on it's own?

I am not a good player, but I do use the Harbs reclaim ability all the time.

I honestly have the same opinion. Take Target Priorities for example, where you can set target as the ACU so they don't target random pgens, engi etc. Gives you a huge advantage over someone that does not have that installed.

The way it was explained to me though... the targeting should be able to controlled by the player and just a downfall of how the game was designed originally.

Is it really an obstacle?

Tournaments that are run should follow the guidelines anyway. Wouldn't it be easy to show the structure to FTX (or anyone for that matter) and then post?

If the community was large, tournaments had a lot of money at stake, then the risk might be mitigated.

You have not given ANY evidence that cheating is wide spread and a problem. Give proper examples? Maybe come up with rulebook yourself?
