Yooo Team Liquid! I love you all! 
My black friend told me to say it, so "no homo."
This next season I'm gonna get D+. If I don't, then I never wrote this blog. Once I get D+, depending on how long it takes and how much homework I have, I may go for C-...
I'm T, and have 90-120 APM
Edit: I'll be playing as
cliffyk
Builds I'm planning to use...
TvP-
Siege Expand
FD
Fac Port
TvZ-
Pseudo Mech
Mech
1rax FE
Sunken break

Ok~! I'll see you later, cause I got bedtime 
I'll try to post my progress as I go along, if I make any at all, haha.

play more than I did this summer, very disappointed in myself >_>
|
i think that's a good idea to just pick 3 builds for each matchup and stick to them, i might try that
|
Actually ladder instead of just loafing around -_-

also, pick one or two maps and stick with them. you will get D+ sooner than you thought.

GL we're both terran players . I improved a lot this season I think. From getting stuck at D+ for a verrrry long time, I got to C/C+ for the first time and competing well at that level(I know I can get to B-/B if this season didn't end this month :< ). I didn't see any improvement in my mechanics/multitasking skills from my D+ games, but what I improved on is my in-game improvisation to my build orders. I am now adapting to what my opponents are doing, instead of doing my textbook builds(mostly from StylishVODS) all the time. So I am advising you to put your focus on your opponent(instead of your build). You should read what your opponents are doing since terran gameplay is mostly about counters. Your improvisations may not work all the time though, but you must at least try, rather than getting your FE timing push raped by 1hatch lurkers(which happened to me a lot of times before). GL HF season 10

gl - I'm trying to break into D+ with my main race (terran)
|
I'm going to try to hit D this season. Wish me luck guys!
|
or, try to play on the MOTW because it's ALWAYS going to be more points, but you don't need me to tell you thought. It's funny, I haven't been playing for THAT long but getting to D+ wasn't too bad (not through cheese). What I did was have a Journal beside me to write EVERY game that I played; wrote the map, MU, intial build orders, random thoughts and a few points of anything to improve your game. Also, if I did anything good (like scout until 2 goons or ling speed completes) I'll note that too.
My issue was I took losses too badly and couldn't play many games. ANyways for my goal, C !! Play more games and no CLear Stats!

You have a better shot of it than Cube at least!
|
you shouldn't 1rax FE at all in the first few days of the season. You'll get 9pooled a lot. 
|
i got to C this season (just, in like, the last week), was D+ the season before that. Aiming for B- this season, wont be overly disapointed if i only hit C+ tho (sustainably)
|
i'm D+ this season! will try to hit C-

Good luck on your goals! I for one hope to achieve my goal of just playing one ladder game.

this season im going to try to sustain C and aim for C+ ^^

don't try fake mech until you have the skill to get C+ or better
|
1v1
Mmmmm i have been really lazy and only played a couple of game ( 9 ) late in the season and got raped pretty hard.
I went 3-6 i think.
So i have to practise seriously 1v1. My mechanics suck balls ( i only hotkey one group, i don't use F keys, i still don't know how to split or how to storm drop etc ... ) and i have the worst mid / late game army control.
My builds are also kinda bad i should read more stuff to make them better.
I should aim D+/C- but i have doubt about my dedication...
2v2
I got C- ( 20-9 with one disco ) and i think that now my dear ally luxdei ( and now he knows how to use muts :D ) is back we should aim to really mass game and get a real C- / C rank.
I think my builds could be slightly better too and also i need to learn how to play vs ZZ teams ( i'm too bad to multitask zeals and sairs properly -.- )
However i wanted to say fuck you 2v2 all my bad 1v1 habits are because of you ( only one group hotkeyed and 3-4-5-6 on gates ) >.<

You have some nice smart, yet solid play, i think you can :D.
As for myself, i'm going to aim to maintain C and go for C+ aswell.
|
Aiming for C- Season 10. GL HF everyone ^_^
|
This was my 4th ICcup season. Got a high D+ with ~ 100 games played.
Hope I can finally get yellow next seaon.
|
My goal is to simply play at all haha
|
Stop making 20 C accounts and just play one to C+!
|
I got from D+ to C by only playing non-stop siege expand tvp and 1 rax fe tvz, over and over, always non-stop using one map from the motw (so i changed my map only when new motw came). It really does help to improve
|
Not stop playing once I hit C, like i've done for the past 3 seasons or so >_<
Gonna be harder this season though, college is starting for me
|
got both c- the previous 2 seasons and i am satisfied.
i am trying to use muta micro when i got C- again,seriously i need to learn this in order to get higher ranks.I hope i can get C or B- next season
Poll: should i learn muta micro from next season onwards?
(Vote): yes
(Vote): no
(Vote): in iccup level,u dont need muta micro
|
i must get D+!!
i got to 1500-1800 on three different accounts T_T
|
Thanks for your sharing! I'm trying to top you all now!
|
Hell yea man, just mass game and you will be at D+ in no time. I hit C this season soI'm going right for C+/B- :DDD

The journal is actually a brilliant idea. I'm going to try that.
Anyway, I want to maintain a c-.

gonna go for C+/B- 60-80 games played
|
A solid C. I´ve hit C- for the past 2 seasons and feel that i really can improve my game
|
My goal: getting to at least D+, preferably C-. I believe that goal will be quite easy to obtain if I just stop fucking around and actually play seriously. Right now I would say I'm low D. Every time I go down to D- and play on that level I rape really hard. My build orders are not 100% solid, but compared to D- players they're extremely precise.
This season I've played around 100 games on different accounts, and I've won around 25 of them. That's bad. Really bad. However, many of those games are off-racing and/or trying out stupid self-invented strategies. Also, the last couple of weeks I've played on my mother's computer, and she doesn't have an ''M'' button (she got pissed off at something (me :D) and decided that hitting her laptop was a good way to get it out of her system, smart woman), so my bio TvZ has been retarded. I have strategic knowledge enough to reach at least into C ranks already, but my multitasking is awful and I tend to lose focus during longer games. So yeah; I'm going to work on my weaknesses and play seriously.
