It looks like your installer is corrupt and you didn't download the full version. Please try downloading it again.

It's incredibly fast for something that nirvAnA seems to do manually (correct me if I'm wrong). I got my key in less than an hour. Very recommended.

Purchase was super easy, key was emailed to me inside of an hour. super easy to setup the korean client.

Definitely recommended buy for anybody after a korean server account.

Why didn't i saw this post before i bought another copy of sc2...

But anyway, thank you this is very helpful.

I am SO happy to see this.... I have some questions though.

1. The lag. Just how bad is it? If it is not much....then I dont mind. Right now I have ok broadband anyway and I play in SEA server with lag.... lol

2. I just did some research. They say that if you want to play in Korean server, you need some kind of Korean SSN (Citizenship number) or something like that. How come with this tutorial, you dont need to? But this method is legal, correct?

Ok, that is all

HOpe to buy one soon!

**nirvAnA** · Sun, 17th-Jun-2012, 11:12 PM

This is actually covered in the FAQ

1) Do the ping test! Compare it with your ping to SEA. If you really want to be sure just PM me and I will send you a guest pass so you can test it out

2) This is because its actually for the Taiwan server. BUT because the Taiwan server has merged with the KR server they share the same player pool / ladders / channels etc. So basically Taiwan server = Korean server but without the need for a korean SSN.

Hope that helps and welcome to SC2SEA Eddie

Thank you very much Nirvana.

I did the ping test....but did not understand it :P

Could you tell me which numbers are which? Because I did it but I saw too many numbers :S

Ah, ok , glad to hear that the Taiwan and Korean servers merged together

**TheGentleman** · Mon, 18th-Jun-2012, 1:42 AM

Hi eddie,

I've put a darker blue square around the numbers of concern. ms means millisecond so you can see that Nirvana here has roughly a 220ms ping which is to say just over 1/5th of a second.

Obviously the lower the number the better your latency. In short the lower the number the better. You probably don't want to be playing with 300ms or more.

eddietheteddie · Mon, 18th-Jun-2012, 1:52 AM

Thanks for easy to understand and fast response.

May I ask, why do you only look at row 12, 13, and 14?

Ok I will do it again tomorrow and see

**TheGentleman** · Mon, 18th-Jun-2012, 1:56 AM

You will notice in the latter rows the ms starts to level out... less change... that's why I chose those numbers. Whereas the first several rows you will notice significant difference between ms.

Doesn't really matter though... if you take the 13th or latter row you'll probably have your answer

toobulkeh · Mon, 18th-Jun-2012, 2:09 AM

Thanks for the key! Got it within 30 minutes! I'm definitely recommending this method to others. I tried purchasing with the other MyCard method via Paypal, even was on the phone with them and with PayPal and they couldn't make it work

Thanks again!

Ok, so....I just realized before buying this:

1. am I going to be buying from sc2sea's own website store?

2. Once HoTS comes out....will you guys make it so we, SEA players, can play Korea too? Or maybe I am thinking too far? :P

3. Sorry if I have asked this previously, but, basically the taiwan and korean servers have now merged, so being able to play in Korea server is now available to everyone, right? Which means if I buy a Korean version of SC2 I can play? Just asking, my plan is to buy from this site.

Thank you

1. Yes
2. Maybe (Nirvana will know for sure) but I expect so.
3. A TW account is the same as a KR (for all intents and purposes) so having a license for the TW account will allow you to play with people who have a KR account and vice versa. However the TW/KR version is completely separate from the SEA, NA, EU, etc... versions all of which will require a separate purchase of HotS to play. TL

R you have to purchase the expansion for each server you play on.

Hope this helps

nirvAnA:

Thanks!! Yea (2) is very very likely.

eddietheteddie · Tue, 19th-Jun-2012, 11:11 PM

Wow.....if KR and TW are merged, the Taiwanese people must be really good then!

I am surprised actually, in a good way :P Everybody knows koreans are so good, but since they share the same ladder as Taiwans, the Taiwanese must be really good too!

OK, practicing more to get good and buy the KR account from here

DESTRO · Mon, 25th-Jun-2012, 9:03 AM

great service 100% the best

DellinG · Sun, 1st-Jul-2012, 8:40 AM

I've got a few problems.... please forgive me if theyre in the FAQ or something x.x
1. I entered the code given to me and on the website, it says i have the full TW account. Whenever i try to log in to the TW server, however, it just starts up a free trial. I am using a relocalizer, perhaps that is what is causing the problem?

2. Not that important, but im missing a lot of chinese characters on a lot of buttons, is this a known problem and is there any way to fix it?
