I'm pretty sure this is going to get buried under all the new SC2 blogs in no time, but I finally hit B- after dicking around against Koreans at C for 60+ games at a sub-50% winrate. Then, I went through C+ in about three days with a record of 11-6. I guess I'll try to hit B- with ZvT exclusively next, because my ZvT sucks balls. Maybe I'll try to hit B next season as well, but the seasons seem to get progressively harder and more Korean (I'm positive at least 75% of my games have been Koreans, and it's been close to around 50% in previous seasons.)
Wow, this blog seems pretty sad for acheiving THE blue rank :D Cheer up! Let me be the first to congratulate you, and to say there is no way I could get into Cal-Tech !

but i would if i could!
Isn't Caltech independent and therefore free from obligation to favor Californians? And how is Caltech a terrible place? Okay, the gender ratio must suck, people must be hyper competitive, and the work load I can imagine would be awful. What else?

well, 35% is from california. and so its still some favor towards californians. that coupled with me being very, very lazy, i dont think i could.
I recognize your id, must have played you before. I have the same experience as you. I got to C+ for the first time in my life this season and 4 days later, I'm B-.

Do it.
