Setting up your US account , KOTH day#2 and Singapore Starcraft League
So us SEA players now get to play free on the US servers. Its really easy to set up, and yes it is LIVE already because US was patched to 1.1 this morning. Step 1) Go to http://us.battle.net/ and login with your SEA account email/details Step 2) Go to your account page, click Add US SC2 account (free) Step 3) Wait for SEA to be patched, i believe it happens tomorrow morning, then you will be given the option to choose which server to play on in your SC2 client.
As for me, i already have the US version installed on my hardrive(something you dont have to do) cause i played on the SeleCT's guest pass ages go. I've just tried logging in with my SEA email, and made my username. It works like a charm, no problems whatsoever
Also in case you missed it the KOTH day #2 Recap/Results/Replays are out here. You definetly have to check out the OxygeN vs Kashimashi game, a TVT unlike anything i've seen. Lots of small intense battles with the food under 50 supply the whole game.
Easily the replay of the KOTH series so far!
As for the server switch, of course im going to play some on US but ill spend the majority of my time on SEA because i have
1) no lag at all
2) all my budies are on sea
3) time zones still remain. PEAK US times = 8am in the morning for us. I rather play at 8pm my time and when the SEA server is populated.
tldr (too long dont read) version: Support SEA!
Lastly, HGHx and HDPhoenix and carrying on with their succesful Singapore Starcraft League Tourney. You basically can register for FREE and stand to win $250 cash in prizes. Check it out here
I will support SEA .. only play in the US server if there's a huge tourney involved but SEA will also have huge tourney as well .. pls dun forget that too
