you need to purchase a korean copy to play in korea, because you need a korean CD key registered to a korean bnet account.

i think it's worth it though. i have great internet, and i'm considering getting a korean version of the game because i hate the stupid play that plagues the american servers. i'd probably only be in gold league there, but that'd still be far more enjoyable than diamond here.


IF the stupid play on the NA servers is the one base all in stuff that you see all the time then going to the korean server isnt going to help at all. Everything I heard is that the korean is even more 1 base all in agression then the US server is

Are you implying that Korean players play more.. stupid? I just can't see the logic in that, man.


Im saying that I have heard from several different places that the korean ladder is much more aggressive, and people(Day[9]) have joked that all you need to do to win is defend for 10 minutes
When you play the game of drones you win or you die.

If you can't defend a one base all in play then your opponent is not really the stupid one.

That's all it is.. a joke. In fact I don't really know where he based that joke off of, since a lot of the koreans play safe and heavy macro.

Korean ladder is the hardest region by far and I'd practice over there if I could get my hands on an account.

I don't know why there's such a prevailing idea of "noobs go all in".

If you failed to spot cheeses and all ins you are obviously not as good of a player as you think. Pros are able to do greedy build because they have the micro to stop cheese and pull ahead, as well as the game sense and scouting to stop them.

I may dare even use the example of Idra, who always used to rage about cheeses. However, if a player cannot stop cheese or counter it, he's simply not a good player.

B net strategy will evolve as more and more player able to defend against cheese. I personally were hardly ever cheesed at 950 diamond.

Korea level is higher , because there is so much more people in there aiming to be pro. In NA server maybe top 5 is thinking about being a pro in korea probably top 50 is aiming that high.

The lag is noticeable for sure but it's not that bad imo. I can't guarantee the same for you though...
