My goal for this season is 1/1 B- with, I know it's a hard task since im C-/C Zerg player but since I won't have school I think it's achievable. Do you have any tips except for mass gaming? If anyone would like to practice with me please MSG me. I will play mostly starting 10 AM EST. Sometimes very late like 12 AM EST. Wish me luck!!!!  | ||

I arrived at work the morning following the season end completely fucked up, but I made it just barely in time. My rank goal for next season is B- like your goal. My game goal is 1.5k games and my apm goal is 150 (eapm). We should play a lot of ladder games against each other ;-) I'm a protoss who loves to PvZ. | ||

No, foremost ingredient of failure is to not being able to sustain what it takes to achieve it, lack of strong enough will/desire, which comes most often out of not knowing what does given achievement requires. Anyways , B- isn`t too high aim. | ||

Don't underestimate how big of a jump there is between ranks, especially once you start getting into the higher ranks. Going up 1 rank a season is an incredible pace. | ||

Sometimes very late like 12 AM EST. Wish me luck!!!! 1. Use Liquipedia. 2. Watch and analyze progaming VODs. Don't just be a casual observer cheering your favorite on, try to figure out why each player does what, what their timings are, and what strengths and weaknesses there are in the build. 3. Listen to Day[9]'s podcasts. Interesting for someone low-level like me (D/D+), but probably an incredibly useful tool for those who are beyond the "perfecting a single build order" stage. 4. Set up a LiveStream account and stream your games on TeamLiquid and ask for advice in real time. I went as far as to not only have livestream going, but also was on ventrilo with a C+ player who guided me through the game. My rank skyrocketed because of his help. | ||

That season I played like 700 games and got a hot streak of protosses at the end, but I'm not talented and I didn't pick opponents. I guess it's even harder now though. Good luck anyways, I'm sure you can do it if you really put in enough effort! | ||
