There are plenty of high ping players on the ladder already. I myself have played on the NA server while physically in Asia. American pros train on Korean or European ladders too. It’s okay. Also, StarCraft doesn’t have to be ultra-competitive. You can enjoy the campaign or coop, or just play some unranked multiplayer for fun. A bit more latency doesn’t ruin the experience, and many/most human beings aren’t twitchy enough anyway.
