Login wall

Details

Decides whether visitors are forced to sign in to use the site. A/B forces ~50% of visitors (cookie-bucketed) so you can compare behavior between gated and open audiences.

New UI rollout

Details

Who can use the new “Lanes” UI and see its New/Classic toggle. Admins only is the default (pre-rollout eyeballing); widen to “Admins + mods” or “Everyone” as it’s ready, or “Off” to fully disable it. Applies on the viewer’s next page load.

Friends / Inbox pop-outs

Details

Who gets the new “Lanes”-style Friends & Inbox pop-outs on the classic header (the header Friends/Inbox icons). Everyone (public) is the default — this is decoupled from the New UI rollout, so it reaches all users without the full redesign. “Off” falls back to the legacy friends drawer / coaching inbox. Applies on the viewer’s next page load.

Leaderboard

Details

Who can reach the Leaderboard (Pro Ladder) tab. "Everyone" is the default (public); restrict to "Admins + mods" or "Admins only" if you want to lock it down. The nav button and the server endpoints both follow this setting.

New replay-viewer art

Details

Replaces the legacy chroma-keyed icons with the new top-down Terran/Zerg sprite atlas in the replay viewer. Admins (you) always see the new art for testing. Flip global on once you're happy and want every visitor to see it.

Replay-viewer audio

Details

Web Audio engine that plays unit, ability, death, and music cues during replay playback. Admins and moderators always hear audio and can use the tuning panels. Flip global on once you're satisfied with mix levels and want every visitor to hear the replay's soundtrack.

Replay-viewer visual effects

Details

The production animation suite for the replay viewer — chrono boost, spawn larva / queen cast, warp-in, blink, guardian shield, force fields, disruptor nova, psionic storm, fungal growth, corrosive bile, caustic spray, colossus thermal lance, cloak detection, SCV repair welds, transport passenger dots, building fire / death FX, and the production-bubble density ring. Admins and moderators always see these (and the Animations tuning panel). Flip global on once you're happy and want every visitor to see the new effects; flip it back off to instantly revert everyone to the pre-polish viewer.

Beta v1.0 launch splash

Details

Fullscreen welcome modal that summarizes the v1.0 launch. Each user sees it exactly once per rollout (tracked in their browser's localStorage by id). Use Preview today to QA on your own admin/mod accounts. Flip Live on launch morning to push it to every logged-in user — the id rotates so admins who already dismissed Preview will see the live one too.

Message of the Day

Banner shown to every visitor once. Setting a new MOTD resets the "seen" flag for everyone.

Curated Watch Streamers

Twitch logins pinned to the top of the WATCH tab while they're live and playing StarCraft II. Drag order sets priority (use ↑/↓). The list fills with the top live SC2 streams beyond these.

    Viewer-count adjustments

    Discount viewbotted streams. e.g. −66 shows 34% of the pulled viewer count. Applies to the displayed number and the listing order, for any stream (curated or not).

      🧪 Tournament Test Lab

      Details

      Spin up an invite-only sandbox tournament filled with sim bots and test the full live flow end to end: match alerts, the lobby screen, map vetoes, server rules, ready-up, chat, caster nominations, the companion-bot protocol, and automatic results + bracket advancement. Hidden from the public — only you (and the bots) can see it. Bots act only while this app stays open (this panel drives them every 3 s); use Fast-forward to resolve bot-vs-bot play instantly. Your own games wait for you: play them from the real lobby UI, upload a real replay via the companion, or use the I win / Bot wins buttons.
