New (competetive) games modes

A while ago there was a glitch where you could get infinite bots in a game, so you could have a 6v20 or ever more. The game can handle that, so from that I know that it is technically possible to have more that 12 players in a lobby.

It actually couldn’t, a lot of those games got shut down for lagging the server.

Here is Jeff’s post on 7v7:

Blizzard save your game! go 1/3/2

exceeding 12 players per match would cause significant technical challenges (we’re highly optimized towards 12 right now). experimenting with less than 12 is more realistic. it’s not that we cannot do it… it’s that the cost would be extremely high.
