StarCraft II is being released tomorrow, and to make sure you're completely prepared, Blizzard has announced the official Battle.net server launch times. Each region and time zone will be opening their servers at a different time, so make sure you check below to know exactly when you can start playing.
Keep in mind that all of these times are estimates. If there are server problems, there may of course be delays, but hopefully Blizzard has learned their lesson from Diablo 3 (and more recently, EA's SimCity).
Blizzard is also reminding players that you will need to close and restart StarCraft II when Heart of the Swarm is launched in your region. This is to allow the game to completely patch, and will make sure you have all of the up-to-date features.
So check your launch time below, and get your micro skills ready, Heart of the Swarm launches in less than 24 hours.
