Hi guys.
I'm wondering what's the point to play iCCup anymore. I either get bashed by B +++ smurfs or worse, people cheese me most of the time. I really can't enjoy my time on iCCup.
How is it the best place for practice then?

Sigh. Posts like these need to stop. If you go on a losing streak, go do something else for 20 minutes. There must be SOMETHING else in your house you can do.

If you are P don't play vs Z.
If you are Z go 9 pool.
If you are T just quit.

My 2 cents.
fuck all those elitists brb watching streams of elite players.

Even if I go off for 20 minutes, that won't solve my problem for being cheesed/bashed.
Seriously, I want to improve not to play such games.

Seriously everyone complains about being bashed by b+ guys at d levels, i found that sooo very hard to believe lol. First of all there aren't that many people that ARE B+ and the notion that those few would constantly reset in order to play at d levels is fairly ... strange imo. Most likely are the people bashing u c-/c players in need of a confidence boost which I agree is a bit lame.
Then cheese, yea it happens, it teaches you basic unit control and scouting and when u have learned that u move up to a rank where it is less common.

I found some funny guys in my match list.
Yea they aren't B+ but they look like C level who like to D bash.

http://www.iccup.com/matchlist/775166/1x1.html

I kinda loled when i looked at their matchlists.
Overall it isn't that bad if it doesn't happen every game because playing vs slightly better people is always good even if you know that you will lose.

So I assume you're a B level player if you get bashed by B+ smurfs. In that the knowledge of an average TL member wouldn't prove very helpfull to you.
SonuvBob: Yes, the majority of TL is college-aged, and thus clearly stupid.

B +++ = B or higher.
I'm only C.

I am assuming that you are D- or D.
When you find someone of similar skill. ask for another game and eventually add him to friends if he wants to. having a few practice partners can make it a lot more enjoyable then to playing random people. It will also help you become better. The easiest way to get practice partners however is to join an active clan.

What race do you play? When you are Terran you should place the savest possible build (in my opinion 1 factory siege expansion with ebay / 4 marines). You should be fine vs DT/Reaver.

If you fear bulldog, add a bunker when your expansion is running.


But just answer the question and we can check how to optimize your gameplay.

just make your game name "C C- only" and you're good. I'm D and I'm 5-2 now.

i play P and play at lower levels (D/D+).

vs Z i do 7 pylon and scout very early for 5 pool builds and overpools. the rest is standard, their macro sucks as much as mine, and it's fun.
I am not good with quotes

Why does everyone feel the need to exaggerate like this. I have played a loooot of games at C rank and the vast majority of them are against other C/C+ rank players.

If you lose your scout probe and die to mass lings a short while later, you shouldn't see it as getting cheesed. Your opponent is simply taking an opportunity and you get punished for being dumb.
No I'm never serious.

No lol.

Actually when i play someone better than me in PvP i want him to cheese because i have way more chances to beat him.
In PvZ cheese or not i know i will be stomped.
