thanks that solved it.

Thanks very much, understanding why it's happening (as opposed to just getting a fix) is always helpful).

Hi, so i deleted my regions.xml because global play is official and now i don't see anything to switch on differents servers.

And when i use the regions.xml i crash when i want to use an other server... I have to go to my regedit and write eu in.
When i launch my launcher it say "Data is downloading for the next update" each time.

Are you serious? Windows registry, duh!
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

Trying to switch to NA while EU is down and getting "there is temporary outage of the battle.net service" with my account. Any random login@pass however gives bad login info whatever.
Nothing helps, complete reinstall of new NA client, relocaizers, region.xml trick, nothing.
Any ideas?
the game changes as you get higher

Currently not seeing the button at all. I've tried putting the regions.xml, I've tried logging in and back out, I've tried restarting, I've tried adding a line into the SC2 Variables folder, I've tried messing up my password, I've tried turning off "remember account". Nothing I do seems to get ti to show up. What the hell.

I haven't played SC2 for so long and decided to try it out again. I deleted the game and installed it (downloaded since lost CD) and I can't change regions? Apparently there's a button next to where you type your email to change region and I do remember when I use to play the game and now it's not there.

The magic button is so awesome!
I also had to re-install my sc2 and for some strange reason I dl'ed US region game and when I noticed that my friend list was empty and no games played I was really frustrated and then I figured it out that I was in a wrong region, so when I found this easy solution that would help me get back to the EU I was really happy. thanks for it!

I'm having this problem now. I originally have a English US client. I changed the language to Korean, and yesterday I was playing on the Korean region. Today I started SC2, and switched the region to US. Then it started the back to launcher loop.

My ....S2\LastPortal-enUS and LastPortal-koKR are both "us". The game client itself seems to be 2.0.4. What can I do to get back on US and updated to 2.0.5?

ok so, do you need to DL the other clients still? Or wait until all regions are up to date with the latest patch.

I have similar situation - it's just on EU server. I was playing on Korea while the europe was under maintenance and now it just loops to launcher no matter what i do. It just won't update the game to new patch.. What can I do to get back on EU and updated to 2.0.5?
Reality hits you hard bro.

I have the same problem. Can only log into KR. There are posts about this issue in Blizzard Technical Support forums of EU and NA but Blizzard is being very unresponsive.

EU Technical Support thread: http://eu.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/6787819374?page=1#11
US Technical Support thread: http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/8087999514?page=4

It might help if anyone who has this problem will post in the threads above as it might put some more pressure on Blizzard to fix this issue instead of just telling us to re-install the game.

I ended up just doing a complete reinstall. Tried a bunch of things before that, never got the launcher to point to US region and patch 2.0.5.
