I'm unfamiliar with how color blind ppl see. If black color is bothering you then I rest my case.

I don't understand the lack of black color, it was said to be hard to read but in the meantime you have this blueish color that's impossible to see on the sea and a bunch of purple/pink that all look the same. Where is the logic here? For me black is one of the easiest colors to see and distinguish units right next to red.

If that introduces black, I am in favour.

We should add an option for colorblind peoples.

The colors don't necessarily have to match what is displayed on other players' screens, right? Except for team coordination, that would be unnecessary, and I have difficulty distinguishing red and green.

I'm not added new colors, i just added a system for see and select only the color availaible in the Lobby.
And is true, the black color is not very good for the unit icon.

1. Player 1 selects the intended color
2. Player 1 goes observer
3. Player 2 selects the intended color
4. Player 1 comes back from obs
5. Both players now have the same color

Yes, sure, you would need to use a team color changer in this case
Anyway at least for your own color, it could be cool to be the color you want regardless of which one other players see you in.

In related subject, sometimes cast are really confusing when casters use names of players. (Worst when they know there is a smurf and use the real name )
I bet it's for showing respect for their performance, or to let the public know them more. But it can get really confusing in big crowded games. I wish they use the color more often.

And lastly : people have different tastes. Arguing about which red or pink, or blue is better among all the possibilities is endless. If you start this, all colours will be changed every patch for no solid reason but the specific taste of someone. Some people will love the change, others will hate it, and most will be annoyed that colours keep changing and that their favorite one disappeared from the list, like Ithilis said.

What would be cool in this regard, would be to see a particular color without changing the color that opponent sees.
Somehow like the option to see the enemy in red, the allies in yellow and your unit in green, but replacing all those colors by what you want.
You want a lighter green ? Done, but the other players are not trouble with it, and continue to see you in red/blue/dark green/whatever.

Ignore all everyone else, implementing black again is the highest priority.
