Revision as of 23:40, 13 May 2013
A Call to Action was announced in 2012 by Blizzard Entertainment. It involves a focused playtest which doesn't use the PTR system.
The changes are tested on variant Antiga Shipyard maps, and after the release of StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm, Akilon Wastes.
Blizzard believes all matchups below pro-level are balanced, but that pro-level zerg are struggling to scout early and defend against all-in rushes; Blizzard needs to improve the situation without making them overpowered. Blizzard wants to test only small adjustments that will affect pro-level play.
