I understand that the recent 1.5 Arcade patch makes it so that published maps are deployed globally, but I'm not really clear on how this works because the global publishing is kind of "invisible" to me. I developed my map as en-US and deployed it to North America, and I have made one update since the patch to add the new Arcade features. I haven't yet performed any localization for other languages, but the game would still be in English on any localization (not doing any translation).
Is my map available to people from EU? Do I have to localize it first so that EU can see the map on the games list? What localisations do I have to account for to have the game appear for EU or even Asia players?
Uh... where did you get that info from? I've heard of plans for global play for HotS, but actually merging all world servers... Dont think they'd ever do that.

@SkrowFunk:
That was just for the Arcade Beta. Now it's back to normal servers.
Well, it doesn't.
