Season 10 was quit the productive one for me since i played near 300 games on a pair of accounts far more than what i usually ever think about playing..
I began this season laddering as protoss and quickly switched back to terran after 151 games or so and my horrible early season ~~ and i completed my goal this season and got C and won a game at C(not vs the best competition but whatever.)

Anywho im gonna list some concerns and shit like i did in my last blog about me getting C

TvT : Im like 80% win ratio in this so i pretty much understand what to do, only problem is how many dropships is the most i should have like 8? or something?

TvP : basically i play the flash build but ive been trying to mix in a bunch of harass and shit too but my main concern is after starting my 3rd how many facts should i add at a time 2-3? also should i make a shitload of turrets when i see abriters to stop recalls?

also is pushing 3-2 or 2-1 better? ive been doing 2-1 and its worked out pretty fuckin' well mostly killing alot of tosses even though my win ratio fucking sucks dick vs toss.

TvZ : Ok how the fuck do i beat fags who just camp with swarm lurk defiler? i mean i can only irrdiate so much shit while i wait for swarm to wear off, then they just make cows(imbalisks) and face stomp me and it pisses me off quite a fucking bit.

Should i just try to kill expos and then just like run them out of money or what should i be doing here?

Season 11 Goals :

My main goal here is atleast stable C(i think i can do that) or even hitting C+(atleast hitting) and if both of the above come true id really enjoy winning atleast 1 game at C+.

AND MY MAIN GOAL WHICH WILL BE ACOMPLISHED : i will be playing more games than pokebunny this season, idc what anyone says this will be happening(poke you are included) since i will be out gaming him i should improve quite alot too and hopefully reach my goals.

Another thing id liket o do is atleast win 1 tourney but idk if this will happen since alot of people smurf at d/c lvl but what can i say

Thanks for reading, what are your goals? we'd all love to hear them :D

I hit c- at the end of the season before this one, I had intentions of getting to C level, but realized that would be too dificult, so I went for mid c-. I hit 3447 in the first week of the season somehow, and then hit a massive tilt and cleared my stats, which is how my iccuping usually goes.

ZvZ: My best matchup by far, I maintain at least 75% ZvZ even at C-, maybe its cause theres so many ZvZ progames nowadays :p/

ZvT: I played Grobyc's Muta Micro map for 2 hours straight when I was in Mexico with no internet, its helped my game alot, I think my muta micro is pretty good, but this is still statistically my worst MU. I go 3 hat mutas into lurker ling, and usually get raped before my defilers come out, I've been practicing my lurker-ling micro really hard though..so I should get it better.

FUCK ZVP

Season 11:

I'm aiming for C level, I am very confident in my macro and mechanics, but Micro and overall bad game strategy have slowed me down, This was the first season that I actually used a concrete build order, whereas I usually always freestyled builds like 3 hat muta.

I want to also join a clan (mG taking people? :p), so I can improve with other people, instead of always by myself on the ladder.

And no more /clearstats YES, I did it almost every week because I got pissed off, but I know its not about my record, but how good I actually get.

It's mG.arb! I think you were in the cpl channel when I was talking to my teammates about TvZ.

Can't you use vults to defend from defiler/ultra while securing a third gas? After you secure it, you can go tank heavy, which should help vs ultras? Ultimately, I'm not toooo sure how easy/hard this is, because TvZ typically involves controlling mass mnm, an extra control group might make control a bit harder.

My goal: get to D+ TvZ and TvPing and hold it. With the way my practice for CPL is going, it should happen within a few months. :D

Thesecretaznman is right, just go SK and use mines is really the best counter. A couple drops might help but vs turtle you'll probably have little luck

Mass tank switch could also work I guess, just take like 4 bases and turn it into basically biomech with tank/mnm and upgrade mech attack.

I hit C+ for the first time this season (yay me!)

Stats:
ZvZ: 14-8 63.6%
ZvP: 22-16 57.9%
ZvT: 10-15 40%

..yeah for ZvT I blame cheesy obscure mech variations that i can't keep track of :D. anyways my season 11 goals are keeping a solid C+ (maybe B- depending on how much time i have), playing >200 ladder games and most importantly helping my CSL team win the gold keke ^^!

so vs this should i just stop them from expoing and run them out of money and do like you said?

We should ZvT again arb! My goal for this season is to play until my win ratio gets under 50% (aside from early season) which I'm hoping will get me up to C rank like you but I dunno if I can because you pounded me anally in our game, sad face.

I was 170 points from C- and then hit an 8 game losing streak. Wasn't able to recover and I keep my D+ rank. My goal is to hit the yellow ranks.

Arb you are my hero!

Also if you have trouble with tvz, make 20 tanks and siege them, and hold position 30 goliaths with them.

Onto my goals:

This season i achieved

300 Ladder games
C+ (first time)
300+ Friendly games
Improved ZvP and ZvZ significantly
ZvT still sucks
Got arb and kona on my friend list

This season i aim to achieve:
300 Ladder games again
Solid C+
or aim for B-!
Smoothen up my play and stick to my style -

This season I plan to either hit C-, or end up playing more HoN than SC. Likely the second.

Because of CPL, I went from a shaky D to a solid D+. Before I couldnt beat D- zergs even, now I can demolish D zergs, and stand a fair chance against D+ zergs. Before I just accepted the fact that everyone told the truth about pvt being 1a2a3a4a, I won some and I lost some doing that. Now I actually have a gameplan, and a BO to go with it.
A million thank yous to SK, ypang and salv! My goal is C this season, and with your help I'm certain I can make it

Yo tirentu, we spoke on CPL channel, and you said you play HoN!

What's your HoN acc name?

Also, to the OP/anyone who feels they know TvZ.

What's your mindset when pushing with tanks to hit Z before defiler timing? I know I have to use tanks to push out the lurks, but it's still awkward for me to keep tank/vessel together, AND cover for scourge. - -

So many timing windows lost due to damn scourges.

Did not play StarCraft for the first 5-6 weeks of the ladder, but played about 250 games maybe before TSL started and 400ish during the TSL. Really disappointed that I was not able to qualify for TSL which kinda was my main goal. For some reason my PvZ just went to shit during the later stages of this season and it felt like I could not win a PvZ to save my life.

My goals for next season is getting my PvZ back in shape and improve overall so I can consistently beat B+ Koreans and hopefully trade games with A- ones. Maybe not the most realistic goals, but I am an optimist as I know how well I can play when I bring my A-game especially in PvT and ZvP. Also hopefully be able to play some progamers during the season
