StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty 1.3.0

General

* Leagues & Ladders
o A new Grandmaster League has been added for 1v1 ladders. This league represents the Top 200 players in each region.
+ Players are automatically drafted into the Grandmaster League shortly after a new season starts, and will remain in the Grandmaster League until the end of the season. If a Grandmaster player’s available bonus points get too high due to inactivity, they will be automatically removed from the league and a replacement player will be drafted in.
+ The Grandmaster League can be viewed by all players through the new Leagues & Ladders > Grandmaster page.
o The bonus pool has been reduced for arranged teams.
o Leagues will now be locked during the final weeks of the season. As a result players will not accumulate additional bonus points and will not be promoted or demoted out of their current division during this period.
+ This will allow players to focus on moving up in their current league without being promoted during the final weeks of a season, and having to fight their way up from the bottom ranks of their new higher league.
+ Players can still utilize any bonus points they previously accumulated.
+ The hidden ratings used to determine player promotions and demotions will continue to update during the lock; however, these ratings will only be used for match-making until the new season begins.
o Ladder data from the prior season can be viewed through the new Leagues & Ladders > Last Season page.
o New league icons have been introduced to indicate division rank. These will indicate the Top 8, 25 and 50 players in each division.
o Loss counts are no longer displayed in Profile and Ladder pages for players below Master League.

* Join Custom Game
o Several improvements have been made to the Join Custom Game section:
+ The Details panel has been removed from this page. Map details are now shown inside a tooltip for each game.
+ Players can now bookmark their favorite custom games! The number of times a game has been bookmarked will be shown in that game’s tooltip.
+ Games are now organized into several pages to make finding your desired game type easier:
# Featured: Our team is always on the lookout for new games that are lots of fun. Our latest favorites are shown on this page.
# Most Popular: Shows all game types, with the most played games sorted to the top.
# By Category: This page allows you to browse through Custom Games based on Category.
# Up & Coming: This page highlights games that other players are recommending, but haven’t yet become popular.
# Fun or Not: From this page you can automatically join a random new Custom Game. After the game, players using Fun or Not are asked to recommend the map (or not). Recommending maps helps get them onto the Up & Coming page.
# Recently Played: The last several games you’ve played are shown here. Use this to quickly get back into games you play often, or to easily bookmark a game you enjoyed playing.
# Bookmarks: Use this page to view your Bookmarked maps.
+ A search option has been added to the Join Custom Game interface.

* Observer and Replay UI

o New panels are now available when observing or viewing a replay of 1v1 games. These panels can be toggled via hotkeys which are shown under the Leader Panel drop-down.

o In 1v1 observed games, both players’ resource rows are shown in the upper right at the same time.
o The main game UI can now be hidden/shown via hotkey.
o You can now toggle between player unit colors and team unit colors when watching a replay or observing.
