Hello, in regards to region selection for Malaysian players is the American region better or is the Asia region better? What are the queue times for both regions like?
From my experience playing Heroes of the storm in the American region, Malaysians get thrown to the Australian server where there is 200+ ping quite frequently. Sometimes also the south american servers. :|
I'm just worried that if I play on the American region I won't get fast queue times and will get stuck playing high ping games with the Australians a lot. Am I just worrying for nothing? :0

For Blizzard's game in general, we should select Americas region. The nearest server usually in Americas region, with Starcraft2 as exception because SEA has our own region, but probably low population~
For Heroes of the Storm, you can choose Singapore as your preferred server. Check the in-game settings.
For Overwatch you can select Americas or Asia because the progress is not locked to regions.
But I prefer Americas, to avoid Koreans xD
But to be honest, these lag issue with Overwatch, sometimes I wonder if the issue was on Blizzard's side. No other game lag this bad. Even people from other region also complained about it.
