So....after taking a little break from starcraft because of sc2 streams....I have been playing a little more day by day. Two days ago, life was grand, even koreans couldn't stop me, and it all came together perfectly when I beat a nearing c- toss.

Then I play like...5 games or so yesterday....but fucking today.

FUCKING TODAY.

lost atleast 15 games in a row due to the stupidest shit I have ever had the pleasure of happening to me. By the end of the streak I was just slamming my keys at times asking myself how I can be so bad.

How can I go from this to a total shit noob that can't even stop a 2 gate rush or beat a d-?

should calm down, there's no point in getting angry at yourself over a loss especially when you're at D.

You were lucky yesterday and unlucky today. It happens. Not getting frustrated when you lose is an important step to progression. If you are having a bad streak, maybe you should put the game down and do something more relaxing.

you have to become a total shit noob to become a total pro... thats just the way it is... theres no shortcuts in life... and if playing games pisses the shit out of you.. your playing it for the wrong reasons

just think hard about why you're playing starcraft and calm down and im sure things will turn out better

Uh oh. I think you need to see a psychologist. Something is seriously wrong.

Eh, you're just regressing back towards the mean. But really, when you get on bad streaks like that you just need to walk away and relax, otherwise you'll just keep making those mistakes because you're so frustrated

My Battle.net account is at 1:86 i think. My only win was because my opponent left.

You act like being able to stop a 2 gate rush is easy

we'll just have ladder blogs instead.

Variance? Don't worry too much about losing or winning one game or another, just think about what you did wrong, and what you can do to improve. That way even if you lose 15-20 in a row, you can still feel like you're getting better.

I'm a joke because losing to koreans is slightly annoying? Also, slight exaggeration in the OP due to the 6 or so PvP v KRs in a row where each of them 2 gate me, and seriously there is something different about their zealots....they don't die xD and mine do.

People need to calm down with the hate around here....I was just annoyed and wanted to show off my game vs a not noob....oh well.
