Note, B is for Bragging

I know most blogs are a bit negative, but I'd like to share my joy with the rest of the world. A while back ago I finally hit C- (didn't blog it tho, waiting til I hit C). And boy was it tough at C- compared to D+. Hardest of them all was the TvT, which still remained at a very low level.

Now, I sat down and started practicing my TvT, because I believe it to be a very fun matchup, with alot of things going on, and not being as BO based as the other mirrors. And finally I managed to achieve some results, I finally beat someone who wasn't that bad in TvT, and no less a Korean (something I can only do in TvZ otherwise!).

So I hope some of my positive energy rubs off on the rest of the blogs, and forgive me if my writing is a bit sloppy, its 4AM. Oh, and good luck in obtaining a beta key!

I could get a more coherent article by gluing a Sharpie to a dog's cook and letting it hump the page.

Not really. I live in the Korean timezone, and to be quite honest, playing at the D to C- ranks when I play during prime PST is a complete and total joke. I mean, I play people at D+ who 2 gate zealot rush me ... when I'm a Terran who walled.

The level difference between western and Korean times is unreal. I'm proud of myself for once hitting C- in this timezone, but it would have been so much easier if I were still in America.

then i guess it depends on who the korean he beat played against then

Kinda are, especially if they spend most of their time playing other koreans/KST.

I mean a C amongst koreans certainly could do well against a PST C: I can see the difference

I try to hunt other koreans myself (im in pst right now) and get raped :S

Yeah they are. I mean look at the Aus vs EG thing, both incontrol and lzgamer got A- and lost to etude and God who only got B-/B high during Korean hours.

I'm gonna have to agree that Koreans are generally better than foreigner on iccup. But I kinda like playing them because of the style they play is easier to manage

Let's say a Korean is one rank higher than a normal foreigner, would you made a blog about beating a C rank American?
