I’m in the beta!

So I got in the beta thanks to a friend who got an extra key from Blizzard. Thank you, AiurAdun!
I’ve only been back a day and I am extremely jetlagged. Yet I have so far managed to play 54 games (40 1v1 and 14 2v2). My first impression is that the game is fun, but still have a long way to go before it will get close to Brood War in terms of quality. I’ll probably post more on that later.
The features of battle.net are still a little rough in terms of usability, but I have really been looking forward to automated matchmaking and now it is here.2v2_platinum
And I love the placement match system even if it by some weird mistake sent me to the Platinum League in 2v2. Pretty strange!
My Silver League placement for 1v1 seems much more sensible to me. Stay tuned for more SC2 Beta updates here.

  4. Heh, no need to send a mail to ask whether you're in the beta now is there?

    I find it worrying that you do not think the game lives up to the BW quality yet though..

    Anyway, hope you had a nice vacation!! :)
