Just like Raelcun said... I played on EU for the first couple weeks of beta, and it was the same as US servers are nowadays.
The servers aren't "worse" or "better", and I don't what TLO's reasoning is behind US server sucking apparently, but whatever delay there is, both players get it. Just as Raelcun said, Blizz is the server host, not a player.. so lag is going to be the same..
Comparatively, they are like HoN servers. The whole game lags if it lags at all.

I have noticed one form of lag I had never seen before where the game freezes for a few seconds, but not long enough to bring up a drop window, and when the game resumes it goes super fast like I'm watching a replay on 3x. When it happens to me, I have asked my opponent if they're getting bad lag, and they'll say no. It is probably the worst form of lag because you can't really do any actions during the 3-5 seconds of game time that plays in "fast forward" because it goes so fast. If it can happen to one player and not the other, then it's definitely the worst form of lag.

I'm fairly sure that's an CPU related issue, and not a connection one.

It doesn't work like that in SC2 but people will say it anyway. Thats why I said theoretically. it does work like that, playing from asia the us server is like bnet1 low latency and euro server is like bnet extra high with lag, but according to opponents it feels just like normal sc2 lat for them.

Silver stars isn't open and gosu coaching is the only other open NA tourney as far as I can tell.

Hah, I'd just finished my coffee and was cracking open a beer when I tuned into the channel - just in time to hear you say "I've just finished my coffee and I think I might have a beer or two", lol. Hero.
