StarCraft II is going free to play on 11/14/17
For Blizzards official write up
Summary
Versus starts against AI or unranked. You will be able to access the ranked multiplayer ladder to compete with other players to become the best of the best, complete with all of the multiplayer units from Wings of Liberty, Heart of the Swarm, and Legacy of the Void. All you have to do to unlock it permanently is earn 10 First Wins of the Day in Unranked or Versus A.I. play—our way to preserve the quality and integrity of the ranked experience.
There are BIG changes coming to SCII multiplayer. Click here for multiplayer updates.
Co-op is probably the newest mode that people might not be familiar with. There are 13 commanders in w/ another on the way. Each commander has their own units and abilities. Each commander has 15 levels to unlock, Raynor/Kerrigan/Artanis can be leveled to 15 for free, w/ the rest only level 5. There are 14 missions currently with more on the way. The missions typically revolve around defending/attacking/guiding. There are also difficulty options and weekly mutations that add to the variation of the missions.
Next update: Han and Horner coop commander and 4.0 patch.
I love SCII. To me it is the best competitive game out there. While it's audience has dwindled in the way of Twitch viewership and there aren't as many prominent streamers, and ProLeague died (jesus it's depressing thinking about) 2017 had some of the best games I've seen. I will update the OT whenever there are new tournaments to watch. If you're new to the game I would suggest most recently the WCS Global Finals 2017, the entire global finals can be found by clicking here: WCS Global Finals 2017 start to finish. Additionally, HSC XVI was just this past weekend and one of the best brackets I feel like I've ever seen was the GSL Season 3 this year (click). In the Playoffs section at the bottom if you hit the "i" in each matchup you'll get a drop down that has a VOD icon. Will take you straight to the game.
TeamLiquid still remains a great resource and Liquipedia is probably the best for tournaments.
