Currently if you enable the Cursor Guide on PTR, it will be enabled on your live version of HotS as well.
There is currently no known way to disable it in live, if you enabled it on PTR
I personally was delighted to find this (by accident) as I enjoy the cursor guide.
But for those who are unsure about to use it or not, you may wish to hold off.
Blizzard is aware of this issue and is looking into a solution.
(if you find a solution to disable it in live please post here and/or bug reports!)

if you enable it in PTR, it will be enabled in live.
Although, again, it will not be possible to disable it.
Im either getting old or I dont play enough but… damn, Im losing sight of cursor on regular basis lately. Insta-enable.

Also the fps vibe is cool 
There is a way to potentially test using it without leaving it on.
I cannot test this myself (as I’ve already got it stuck on) but I believe if you go into the battle.net launcher, click the “BLIZZARD” icon, select “settings”, than go into “game settings” than go down into “Heroes of the Storm”.
Select (put a check) in the “Additional command line arguments”
Then type/copy this into the line it gives you:
Cursorguides=true
This line should enable Cursor Guide, and I believe removing it (or flagging it to false) should allow you to try it without it being “force enabled”.
BUT This may force enable it until a fix is found on Blizzard’s side.
Like in this photo, except you would type in the code shown above. Sorry for all the blue lines, but I’m to lazy to properly edit things out.

I do not know if this will result in this setting being stuck on.
But info if it does from someone who tries it would be neat!
Thanks
u do know some of us can wait for it to hit live. but we are also giving ideas for blizz for letting us change the color to preset they already have beside grey. grey blends in with their color plate, y u give options that pop out and change per map so it stands out.
Sounds like good ideas to me, although I suspect those color-shifting features would need to be a later patch
