StarCraft II patch 3.19.0 is the ninteeth major patch since patch 3.0.0.
General
- Arcade and Custom Games have received a significant rework
- The “Arcade” top navigation section has been removed
- The “Custom” subsection under the “Multiplayer” tab has been removed
- A new “Custom” top navigation section has been added with three subsections:
- Lobbies – allows you to preview or join any open public lobbies for Melee and Arcade maps
- Melee – allows you to create new lobbies for Melee maps and Melee maps with extension mods
- Arcade – allows you to create new lobbies for Arcade maps
- Game lobbies have received several new features:
- Individual lobbies with custom titles can be created
- The number of players in a lobby will be displayed in open lobby lists
- Multiple lobbies of the same map can be displayed simultaneously
- In addition to bookmarking, a map can be “pinned” which will display it in the menu bar for quick access
- Map info pages will now display if there are any active lobbies for that map
- “Play” and “Play Again” buttons have been replaced across the custom games user flow with “Join Lobby” or “Create Lobby” buttons
- Public lobbies will no longer autostart when full
- For more details, please check out this post
- All unit skins can now be used in Wings of Liberty and Heart of the Swarm games.
Co-op Missions
Dehaka
- Upon reaching level 10, Dehaka becomes vulnerable to enemy air attacks.
Dev Comments: Dehaka is tall! Super tall, taller than a Colossus! Plus, it looks awesome when he gets shot by missile turrets.
- Creeper Host
- When upgraded with Aerial Burst Sacs, Explosive Creepers will prioritize air targets and swoop toward them
Dev Comments: With the upgrade, Creeper Hosts are a very powerful anti-air option but previously would still prioritize ground targets. Because they deal a lot more damage to air units, we prioritized their air attack and given them a short dash to connect to their targets.
Fenix
- Champions:
- When champions transfer, they will prioritize host shells that are closest to where that champion died
- When champions transfer, they will no longer be briefly stunned
- Champions can now be set to control groups and will still function correctly even when they transfer into a new host shell
Dev Comments: In our continuing work on Fenix, we wanted to first address a few issues with champion functionality. These changes should make the Champions more responsive and effective in combat. There will additional Fenix changes coming soon where we hope to address some of the other issues we discussed in last week’s forum post.
Editor
- A new effect type has been added to the Data Editor: User Data
- Adds a key-value pair data store to effect trees
- Effects can modify and validate against values in the key-value store
- Allows map makers to more easily create recursive "Chain Lightning"-style abilities
