I can't find the option to create a 4v4 custom game. How do I do this? The loby opens with a 5v3 setup and I can't move the 5th to the second team.

Edit: Nevermind, suddenly it started to work. I have no idea why. Perhaps some battle.net bug.

Edit2: I'm so stupid... I left the loby and the bug is back now.

If you have 5 people in a party and create a custom game this happens.

What you need to do is cancel the party and then start a custom game, select 4v4 mode and add people manually using the Add Player button (Near Add AI button).

Note: not verified, i do not have any friends online now.

I will describe the steps to create a 4v4 custom game:

Select Multi Player at the top left part of the SC2 screen
Select Create Custom Game on the bottom right part of the SC2 screen
Select a map for 8 players (for example Lava Flow)
At the right side of the screen, select 4v4 from a drop box
Add players as you like and play

This works fine for me and i have never had any problems.

  • I don't have any party. I simply create a new custom game on a 8 player map and the loby starts in a 5v3 setup. And I can't drop a 4th player into a team.

  • And there is no way how to change it to a 4v4 setup?

  • You can create as many 3 player teams as you want :) But not a 4 player team. Mele seems to work fine, but that doesn't work with team oriented maps (players are just placed at random and not top-bottom or whatever the map is supposed to be).

  • Updated the answer with step-by-step instructions on how to create a 4v4 custom game that works for me well.

    Dont know about custom, but if you do this because you want those "custom game achievements" then no worries, it counts in "melee", you just need to create a Multiplayer->Custom Game every time. (not a Single Player game)
