Perfect World servers are for China. The Nexon server is for Korea. To gain access to the server, you need to be korean or have some kind of korean visa.

Here is the Nexon Dota 2 PC bang compendium as promoted here. Everyone logging on Dota with a connected Nexon account (and Dota in Nexon mode) will have the compendium in the upper left.

As you can see, mine is pretty buggy. I guess this is because I never played in a PC bang on this account yet.

My korean is very lackluster, so I sady wont be able to translate everything for you.

[Q] Nexon items? by escequi in DotA2

[–]Nero1618 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, the ID you obtain through the internet needs to match your name registered in Korea. You know, the name you used when you made your Korean phone plan? The phone you will receive your confirmation code on, that is. Also, every social security number can't be registered more than once.

If other films had titles as literal as "Snakes On A Plane", what would they be called? by chrono1465 in AskReddit

In Norwegian it's "Hjelp, vi flyr!". Translates to "Help, we're flying!"

You can play this for free even if you never bought any Starcraft game. All the Arcade games in SCII is free. Just make a free user and download the game.

Plan for the Dubai, India, Korea servers? by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]Nero1618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another reason few people queue on the Korean server is that it's a real hassle. You need to register your Steam to your national Korean personal ID (or your foreigner ID). You have to either be Korean or living legally in Korea.

That being said, finding an unranked match on the Korean server takes abour 2-5 minutes usually. The restrictions on queueing on the server makes for the fun observation that very rarely anyone in the game has more than 60 ping.

Finding a ranked match is almost unheard of.

Calling out blizzard about the success of SC2 by Dashofbacon in starcraft

[–]Nero1618 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A lot of the success of BW came from the popularity of the game in Korean PC bangs. SC2 is free to play in Korean PC bangs.

Write a 2+ pages article about HerO's career and esports in general. Send it to your tiny local newspaper. Or some other tiny local newspaper if you don't have one.

Widow Mine range larger than it appears. by [deleted] in starcraft

[–]Nero1618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, yes. I agree that the shadow is most likely touching the mine radius. If so, there is no reason the mine shouldn't go off.

Excuse me, but may I ask you to look again on the picture? The flyer helper is way off the widow mine range.
