When i search all i find involves opening the editor, opening the map you want to play, and then hitting Test Map button in order to play a singleplayer map that wasnt designed to be uploaded to the server.
But every map i download and try to play that way, its all glitchy with crap that the maker obviously didnt do because its preventing gameplay.
Case in point, Storm's Keep, when i play it through the editor all the text comes up as Parum/Value/random numbers and letters. That sounds like a glitch because youre not playing it through battlenet to me, but of course you CANT play it through battlenet because of the popularity crap blizzard introduced.
Any other ways to play these maps by chance, or is there a way to upload these maps privately so you can play it online? Every time i try to do that it says name taken no matter how i change it.
When I want to play singleplayer map without opening editor I drag that map over Starcraft2 icon on desktop. This way I don't see the map before playing it. (I'm not sure does this help original poster anyway)

Create a game in battlenet, search for keep, select storms keep, play.
@Vineheart01: Go
It was localization error, try Hati's localization tools to fix it, choose enGB as the main and localize to enUS for example

You can open maps in SC from the single player menu using the play match vs AI (can't remember exact name).
I don't actually know what folder you have to place the maps in so they show up though so probably not a very helpful post.
You can also drag the map file onto your SC2 application/shortcut, or right click -> open with blizzard launcher.
