No protocol changes, only version byte... profile looks like that because the ladder is now WGTour on the Europe server. None of the other servers have ladder anymore =/

They're just using an improved version numbering scheme to determine game version details easier.

0xffff.0xffff.0xffff.0x01 (level . major level . minor level . expansion)

Did anybody else notice they just went through the true tricks map and the 25 trick map and just patched all that, half of the stuff didnt even effect the game play and existed for many years so don't know why they finialy patch it after all this years, Aslo people saying warden was now put into starcraft.

Warden can't be in Starcraft unless they decide to make Battle.net host the games.  Games are peer to peer, you can play a game of Starcraft without even being connected to Battle.net

It can be, just not securely.

I have a feeling this patch is just preparing for something larger.

Hm, depending how this new ladder system works, a client in a ladder game, could at a later date, be required to do warden checks with the battle.net servers why ingame.
Failing to do so, could result in the player being disconnected from battle.net, or cheating could result in the ladder game being discounted and the cheater being banned from ladder, or somthing of that nature.
Interesting subject tho :P
Hasnt SC had some kind of unactive warden client since a few patchs ago?

If I recall, isn't there a dll file in brood war's dir titled WardenClient.dll or something similar? If anyone would post a link to it I'll take a look.
