Finally I got too play SC2 in the Chinese server and it was so much better (lag wise) than playing in the NA server, and it no so expensive…
If you consider that 30 day cost 20 RMB = 3.06 USD and if we divide it in 30 you are paying .102 USD

That means that if I spend the money of a brand new copy of SC2 (49.99) I could play 490 days, that will be 1.3 years
In other words, if I live in China why should I play in NA

the bad thing is that i'll be in shanghai until July so thats the sad part :^(

Despite the fact that i don't know how to say in Chinese GLHF and GG its really easy to play, is the same interface and all that…

I don't understand. What's the breakdown of the cost for?

I thought this would be about IMO but that's always completely uninteresting.
No I'm never serious.

I am not really sure what your trying to say, but I do hear that Chinese internet is pretty bad if your trying to play with people outside China. I think he might be talking about internet prices in NA compared to China. If so, while Chinese internet may be cheaper, it is pretty bad to try to access things and people outside of China. NA internet is generally better for international things.
I like money. You like money too? We should hang out.

Haha I came in expecting some analysis about the difference in AMC scores or something.

I heard that China has an open beta that you can download at like 100mb/s, but in NA its like 1kb/s rofl :D, but you can just play the Chinese server, TL has a community there too.
