Nice job.

Playing at night is a lot harder because that's when all the Koreans come out. The competition is noticeably more difficult.


im pretty sure everyone knows that already.

if you play c- to get to C+ you are just doing the same problem over. When you are C-, only play against C- and C. When you are C, only play against C and C+ etc etc.

I have a friend who I met 2yrs ago on iccup. I joined his game, and he was a really bad player. I think he was like 20-50 D rank. I showed him the basics, and we watched alot of replays together. Over the course of the nxt 2years he decided to ONLY play ppl that were better than him, and last season he was able to reach B rank. From low D to B rank simply because he refused to play anyone lower than him.

You should have that mentality, and improvement will come alot faster.

If you are C- and playing C, someone is a C playing a C- ?_?

Also your friend didn't get B "simply" because he refused to play anyone lower than him. You don't magically get better by being selective about your opponents.

I don't want to be an asshole, but reaching your goal by cheesing player two ranks lower than yourself is a tad lame.

Still, congratulations on your achievement!

Yeah true, I get bored easily though, I let people join my game and if they're lower I cheese to end it fast, if they aren't I see how I fare against them.


I kind of agree with Holgerius. IMO you cannot claim you are C rank when you played 90% against D+/D players (why would you play vs D players). More like you are still C- and just bashed your way up to C. Not that im trying to be disrespectful, but if you wanna claim C rank, then you need to beat pure C- players to get it. Beating d/d+ to get to C is only inflating your rank to something you might not actually have achieved otherwise.

Either way, to each his own.

(I am TSL-Dracula from your list)

Yeah i noticed the incredible amount of D/D+ players being played also..

terrble :/

Yeah and im not talking about his opponent who chooses to play lower ranks and not improve. Im talking about him. Where is the confusion in that? If a C wants to play him, then he should. What kind of argument are you even making?

My friend got to B rank because he chose to consistantly play better players, even if that meant losing 80-90% of his games. What do you mean being selective? He simply made his games, and tried to play everyone he could that was better than him. He GOT BETTER because he had the mentality to ignore the frustration in losing, and mass game against BETTER PLAYERS. What are you refuting in that?

basically what exactly is the point of your post? It didnt accomplish anything...the first part is pointless and deals with nothing I wrote to the OP. The 2nd part is retarded because you have no idea what you are actually talking about. Being selective and mass gaming against tons of better players are 2 different things, and seem to confuse you.

Congrats, although it's kind of bad that you lost to TensorSpace during your 12 game 1 loss streak. He is pretty terrible, a shame to lose your only game to him ):
Peace~

Oh you're onionrings. My friend played a pretty crazy comeback game against you.
It was a PvT on python, at one point it was 100 supply to 60, then some imba stasis happen.
No I'm never serious.
