Blizzard announced the 1.10 patch 7 months ago..pretty sad isn't it? They released information letting people know that a lot was going to change in the next patch...mostly the new type of characters; the ladder characters...This I can imagine taking up most of the time, and with 2 guys working on it...It won't be out for a long time.

Uh, but yeah...programming any type of graphical game takes a lot of skill, almost impossible for just 1 person to create, in my experience, i've never been assigned with another programmer with the ability to draw a half decent stick figure.
