I'm just playing devils advocate here just so I don't have my heart torn out. A new patch for SC/BW is coming out in the coming weeks. I read the link in OP so I don't think the "announcement" is about the patch obviously. I'm just saying, that's all.

They are still updating SC which is good news I guess. I miss the Use Map Setting games of Brood War. World War II maps FTW.
