aka. a BAD thing/sign for every other game It is a server merge, but I don't see what the problem is. This is one step toward what pretty much everyone wanted all along????? Remember the region lock outcry from alpha/beta?? Hmmm, but didn't they also say that they aren't closing down any servers? They said latency won't change/you'll be playing on the same servers in both regions. It's kind of like the battlegroup merges for WoW. They didn't close any servers, but they let battlegroups play against each other. Of course that was probably population motivated.
I suppose that's kind of the same thing, but LA already connects to NA to play their games anyway. NA and LA players connect to the same physical location, and that won't change after season 3 starts.
And I'm sure the reasoning is similar too (population motivated). TW, RU, and LA are all really small servers.

GG Taiwan. But its arguable they will have more than 1 SEn after Koreans rub their skills on them The NA ladder should brace itself from the Peruvian zerg rushes

Agreed, but not everyone fromSEA has good latency when connecting to NA.

SEA is really hard to ladder and promoted. I'd just played 2 days on NA and got Diamond while only stay Plat in SEA with the same win rate lol
|
Awwww yeah, I get to finally play on the Korean server. Time to see if the "NA Diamond = Korean Gold" is really true.
Either way, I'm gonna get slapped.
|
No love for SEA? Could have linked Korea with Taiwan and SEA?? Oh wellz...

Was diamond last season with purposeful losses. Played my 1 placement match, LOST IT, and got to 100th masters. The server is not competitive.

K time to get a tw account.

It's kind of bad that Russia will be linked to the European server. Their majority of players is more bm than the average European and very few of them speak correct English. Yes, I've played with a lot of Russians.

Good news team _b would be sweet if everyone was given another name change :D
|
not SEA server?  sigh, I now have to consider should I just get NA for heart of swamp

It is pretty competitive man, I have been trying to crack into masters on SEA since it was released, masters on NA but can never get into SEA masters, play versus the same opponents who are much better than me and keep losing mmr when I am able to climb up there 
Either way its good news, lets hope they will eventually allow us to just simply pick a gateway to any server although I am tempted to get a TW account so I can play on KR server heh
|
Same tried to get a TW acc but you will need a NID for it *looks through the internets*
|
How 'limited' is it. Do they just mean between two regions only?
|
|
US+KR... MAKE IT HAPPEN
actually, just everything+KR, there's no need to be selfish
|
|
im just hoping season 4 they link SEA with KR then
|
LOL i know that they gave us sea a free NA account but... lol they dont even put us with anything
|
Good news, now i can practice stupid strag my Tw account and expect it to be reset
