Yup, exactly seupac

So a 150 point 'mycard' will get you a 30 trial for TW SC2

Alternatively, if straight up you wanna spend the $40, your best option seems to be to get a 1150 'Battle NET" card from offgamers, ... they restock them regularly it appears and that works no problems (check pages 8-10 of this thread)

Any other 'value' my card, has some issues atm

OK

i bought the 150 point card with visa and followed the instructions

took me about 5 minutes in total and everything worked flawlessly !

as for the lag from the west coast, im sure it will be severe (500-650 ~). as far as i know there is no lowerping/smoothping for starcraft 2, but on wow it dropped some of my teammates pings from austrailia from around 1000 to the 300-400 range.

so lowerping get us a server ! :x

I believe there are several ways, but the easiest and the one I use is to just simply install one version for each server. So one US, one EU and one KR version..

There is also a program that does it for you, but none of my teammates have got it to work.

See I downloaded the TW version, and put the desktop icon right next to my NA version, but when I start up my NA version it pops up as TW version...

The desktop shortcuts gets messed up, yes. You will have to make a new one for the US version (if you indeed did install them in a seperate folder).

Yes I did put them in seperate folders, so just re download NA version and keep it in same folder?

So, the best thing to do is buy 8 x 150 point cards if you want the unlimited usage?

Thanks so much to OP.

I've got everything except the key for b.net. I bought the points and put it in and now I'm at battle.net where it says redeem Battle.net Game Card code. What am I missing?

I don't see a code in the email, just a link back to the off-gamers website. Where I can view the Mycard serial and password; but no b.net code?

Edit: I didn't look at the right number in the email, I'm an idiot. Thanks!

Go up and click account balance and click on the last link on the drop down. Here you should paste the long number from offgamers named code, then you should get your points.

ps. This is only valid if you bought the SC2 from offgamers for 1150 poinys

EDIT: Finalized instructions for people who've been stuck with 1000 or 2000 point cards can now be found on page 13 of this thread.

Old post for record-keeping:
+ Show Spoiler +

Not much success yet, but I did find a tutorial on the site for using "MyCard member points" as currency to purchase Battle.net cards at http://active.mycard520.com.tw/web/teach/teach_micro_battlenet3.html

To clarify, these are the steps:

1) Create a MyCard member account. This will make you a MyCard "junior member", which has very limited functionality. Logon to the member area and follow the instructions to verify your account via email so that you can upgrade to an "authorized member." I selected "Overseas" member, because I don't live in Taiwan. The only tricky field they asked for was a passport number, so I just made up a random 9-digit number (Taiwan passports #'s are apparently 9 digits). I pressed submit and successfully upgrade to an authorized member.

Note that when I tried the first time I entered in just a random 3 digit number for the passport field and when I pressed submit it failed and I had to start all over again. I have no idea what the deal is really. So I just stuck with a random 9 digit number and it worked. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

2) After upgrading to authorized member, several new options will now appear on the left-hand column of the member area. These options are in English (thank goodness!) and correspond directly with the picture on "Step 2" of the tutorial.

For example, note that in the "Step 2" picture, "轉點儲值" is boxed in red. On the English version, this corresponds with "Redeem". This is what we want, so click it!

3) This is where I got stuck again. The picture for Step 3 in the tutorial shows that the fabeled "戰網卡" (Battle.net card) option is available to be selected. But on my browser, I see no such option.


TLDR:
"戰網卡" *should* be available on the drop-down menu; MyCard shows it right on its own tutorial! The reason why we don't actually see it right now is unclear. We can only hope that the option isn't down permanently and that it is only on temporary maintenance. Some people have used the MyCard customer service webform to ask questions and apparently received a reply that the service is going through maintenance, but nobody seems to have gotten an answer on the ETA.

I hope all of you guys can keep playing with their website and talking to their customer service, as the more people trying to figure this out the faster we'll get to a final answer.


EDIT (CLARIFICATION):

Some people might be confused as to what the hell "MyCard member points" are and how to get them. MyCard member points ARE NOT the same as the MyCard points bought from Offgamers. It is something that Toons accidentally stumbled upon in another thread and I got clarification from him through PM.

"Step Zero" -- Converting MyCard 1000 point card to MyCard 1000 "member points":
(Note: Do NOT do Step Zero until somebody figures out a way to make Step 3 work! This is all experimental and you might screw yourself.)

0a) Go to https://www.mycard520.com.tw/MyCardStore/Store.aspx

0b) Enter in the information. You'll see the beloved menu.
[image loading]
Choose the first option that has the word 'MyCard' in it. This will convert your 1000 point MyCard into 1000 MyCard "member points" (i.e. it just loads the MyCard points onto your online member account).

0c) Login to the MyCard member area. On the top-left, it should now say "MyCard points: 1000". (Before, it would have said MyCard points: 0").

0d) Now that you have MyCard member points, you can use them as currency to execute Steps 1-3. In essence, you use your online member points and redeem/convert them into Battle.net cards.

We already know that Battle.net cards are only sold/redeemed in denominations of 150, 300, 450, and 1150 points. My hypothesis is that with 1000 member points, you will redeem twice, each time for a 450 point Battle.net card. 450+450 = 900 (with 100 useless MyCard member points leftover). You'll still need more Battle.net cards to hit the 1150 required to buy the game, probably 450+450+150+150 = 1200 points (50 useless points leftover on your Battle.net account).

The 1150 point Battle.net card has been confirmed to work by others in the thread and is actually the optimal headache-free solution if you're starting from scratch. You get a code that you can enter directly into Battle.net and can skip all the MyCard madness.


Offgamers probably took out the MyCard purchase option on the SC2 section of their site 'cause I bet tons of people have been asking their customer service wtf is going on.

But, they still sell the MyCards on the site. For example on their WoW section.

Yeah i figured that out last night. I think this has to do with the maintenance issue. I think we have to wait for that to be resolved before we can use our mycard points.
