-----Patch 1.23--------
FEATURES
- Battle.net now uses a new banner ad system.

FIXES
- Fixed an exploit where an altered custom map would be seen identical to the original custom map.
- Fixed an issue where some patches could not apply on Intel Macs.

Notice this is no hoax/joke/trolling ! This patch is just hilarious. Can`t wait for the new banner ad system.

Dude you write "NEW PATCH 1.23 IS OUT". Most people including me, would think that this means the patch is actually in use, and used as default on battle.net.

its out on westfall according to this site.

cant try myself as i cant start warcraft on my notebook now

This would be a news topic. If it contained any news.

You're 2 days late.

1. It s out ON WESTFALL since yesterday or the day before and most people already know about it and are praying for some game balance to come prior to release (after all it s a major version number change...)

2. This forum sux anyway

its test patch

well when there is nothing to fix why go around and fix something?

lol for balance things!

balance is fine
not perfect but fine
if they do some stupid changes now they could ruin the balance
what wc3 needs are new maps
maps which have 0 health fountains and 0 goblin shops which would put orc at a bit of disadvantage

fix blade and its balanced n_n

Yes, just make critical not to stack with any items and it would be very nice, nothing else needs to be changed balance wise imho. Pimping BM would still be very nice early game, but not so ridiculos late game with 400+ dmg hits...

PS: Critical does not stack with mask of death already, just need to extend this to all items ;)

well fiends stronger and driads stronger, that would do the balance :D ud would have more chance against towers, and orcs, and elves would still have chance against ud, as driad is only unit they use vs ud :D And that would make a lot of new strats with elf :D

yeah a lot of new strats

before : mass dryads
after : mass dryads

u ppl just suck by not keeping the BM low on items/lvl

well elfs dont use mass driads vs orc and human so stfu senar

only a slow retard would buff a tier2 ranged unit, with magic immunity, auto-dispel, slow and poison ability. And for 145 gold rofl. Try harder

make wisps immune to piercing damage then.

it's so sad to see that elves had it so easy all these years that they actualy think they are bad now

Yeah, I miss the days of tower tank, mass gargs, blademaster + ensnare without talons and getting towered by all 4 races. Elf was so easy back then.

um isn't that what is happening atm?

i miss the days, where i whined about mass wyws, and elfs whined about mass gargs, orcs whined about hum casters and talons, hum whined about desis :( There were no tavern hero strats vs ud for elf, no tc vs talons, no towers tanks vs ud, no fast tech strats for ud vs orc :(

completely agree tavern is piece of shit!

completely agree tavern is piece of shit!

ooh all 1.22 replays are dead..

kinda sucks ;s

why? use ever-craft.

Have you noticed that ladder-pages moved from "battle.net" to "classic.battle.net"? Maybe this patch was just a preparing step for battle.net 2.0 system?

Nice ladder reset! : )
