Here are the steps that I followed. I have an account working, downloaded the client from Blizzard and am playing now in the Taiwanese server. (Note: I recommend to use google chrome to get the site it translated from Chinese, since you can get the site translated without affecting the scripting functionality. I tried other translation tools and broke the site for me and I couldn't complete the purchase.) Important note: I used the process outlined below with Paypal. Do note that your Paypal account needs to have been "verified". The ccgameshop site requires it. If you don't have your Paypal account verified, then the order will go through, but then you will have to provide proof to the Chinese site that in fact it is you who own the account since your paypal order will appear to come from an account that is not verified. And until that proof is given you'll get nothing in return. I'd recommend you verify the account through Paypal itself (it is usually a process where they give you a phone call with a code so you can entere it in the paypal site itself). That way the verification is through Paypal and not a games site. Another thing is that you can call or email the site Chinese site itself to let them know if you are stuck in the transaction and provide the order number from the member center as well as the paypal confirmation number. They have limited English, but I managed to get the message across. 1. Register and create an account in ccgameshop.com.hk. 2. Once logged in, go into the member center within ccgameshop and click on "send verification email" so that an email can be sent to your email to verify the account. 3. Go to your email and check for the mail from them. Most likely it will go into your junk folder since it contains many Chinese characters.This took about 5 minutes to get. 4. Click on the link in that email and then you will get your account verified. If you go to the user center it will now say that "you are a registered user level". 5. Now go into the link http://www.ccgameshop.com.hk/goods.php?id=2015 to purchase this 1150 BNET points card. 6. Click on the "add to shopping cart". 7. Click to "check out". 8. It will ask you to enter your name and address. I put USA/Canada as region and Central America for the second drop down. Third drop down nothing populated so I left it like that. All fields must be filled, so I put "Nothing" under landmark and "Anytime" in delivery time. Also you ahve to use the format 1555123456 for the phone number and must be the same for both fields. 9. Continue with the check-out process and you will get to select answer three questions: a. Delivery method - Select "system sends you message" which means that if the item purchased is a virtual good or game card, they'll send you the code via email or in-site message. b. Payment method - Select "paypal". c. Other information - I put nothing here. d. Submit order. 10. A button will appear that will send you to Paypal, click it. 11. Log into paypal and purchase the account. You will get confirmation from paypal that the item has been purchased. 12. Go to the member center and under "My order" you will see an item with Order number, the amount paid (in this case 317.20 Yuan for now) and Order status. It will take about 30-45 minutes from Paypal to give confirmation to CCgameshop. 13. Once the payment went through, it will take another 30-45 minutes for the site to send you the virtual number of the card. Once this confirmation happens, go into "My order" in the User Center and wait until it says "confirmed, paid". Then click in the link on the order number to show the details. 14. Within the "order status" click on "send/view businesses message" and you will see a message that gives you a serial number of about 25 digits. 15. Go to your NA BNET account and go to Starcraft and then account management. The link should be https://us.battle.net/account/management/ 16. Go to the address bar in the browswer and change the us->tw so the link should read now https://tw.battle.net/account/management/index.xml. Nothing will change and the language is still in English, but now there is a dropdown in the right with "points" for your account balance. 17. Click on the account balance and select "recharge account option". 18. Enter the serial code you got from ccgameshop here. It will say "success" and you'll have 1150 points. 19. Return again to your account management https://tw.battle.net/account/management and select "buy digital games". Verify that you are in the Taiwan region in the top right. Click on Starcraft 2 and it will show the option to purchase trial or unlimited. Go for unlimited which costs exactly 1150. 20. Congratulations! You just purchased a Taiwanese account under your name, linked to the NA account that you have, and without having to give your creditcard and information to someone else. 21. Download the zhTW cliente (Chinese) or get a relocalizer. Enjoy! | ||

When I played on KR in BETA it was UNPLAYABLE. Playing from Ireland on UPC (mostly considered the TOP fibre ISP in Ireland) I ping around 300 .. which is by no means the best (to Seoul on Speedtest.net) Could i do blink stalker saves similar to what i try to do on the EU server (im low - mid masters) .. Probably not But is it playable - most certainly Depends on your location and the routes your ISP takes to get there (for example, mine goes via the US) | ||

I think I actually might get this. I already have NA and EU but this could be my secret practice account. | ||
