I got a korean sc2 account from a friend, but I need to pay in my own money. I can't do that I don't think unless I have a korean debit card, but I'm not sure. How did you pay for it?

You can only do this if you have someone in Korea make an account for you with their citizen no.

There is no other way.

Yeah, in Korea basically anything you do as an online account you need a SSN#. Either way if you are playing from Canada, I'm sure you'll have issues with latency...

you have to download the korean sc2, which is not a big deal, and the least of your worries...

I have a working I-Pin but cannot entry my address using the Battle.net tool during 40% step 2 of 5 during account creation.

Has anyone solved this problem? I've even googled local addresses and none of them will show up using this b.net tool.

Thanks!

I'm in a PC bong here in Geoji, Korea and the guy playing next to me just asked the lady running the place for her son's ID. She hasn't come back yet but I might be playing under his account. Hopefully he doesn't play often because I'm about to ruin his MMR.
