It's beginning season, I've already met plenty (if not all) past at least B- players at D. I usually have no idea how good the player is until I play them (or look them up on iccup.com page after the game), and generally I assume he's at least as good as me when I ladder. I'm B+/A- Terran btw. I'm also assuming that this game was played in beginning season.

He wanted to try out 14cc on a noob so he could test the viability of 14cc? OP might have been doing something else and might not be looking at the screen where the stats show, assuming that its definetely a D game. Err maybe he checked the stats of that guy? i dunno lols

People who are saying B- is shit, I dont mean to be rude but do you realize how crushing that is to players like myself who barely reach D+/C- and think hell yeah! and suddenly theres these 300 apm B- gosus saying 'oh yeah im fuckin terrible'
thats like a member of the track team going in front of a cripple and saying 'fuck these legs of mine, fuckin useless stumps, i suck at running'

Agreed. However, TheAntZ you should just realize that most of these people who say crap like that usually just want attention ^^.

Because players who are D+/C- aren't capable of becoming B- players? Your analogy fails horribly. Cripples can't get better at running, D+ players can get better at BW.

And yes, B- isn't that good. The gap between B- and competitive foreigners is probably 10x greater than the get between D+ and B-. You can go from D+ to B- in a few months if you play a lot, good luck doing the same with B- to A+.

i'm pretty sure he just means the account was B- in previous seasons. remember its still early in the season, so no one's back at their true rankings yet. i swear i will be before beta 2nd phase though >=[

rofl what the fuck. Do you play starcraft 10 hours in a row every day of the week? B- is a ridiculous amount of skill especially for those of us who don't have time to memorize builds up to like 60 food and play for hours upon hours a day.

Hey, you know who's really really buff? Ronnie coleman. That means all amateur bodybuilders are weak as shit right? I'm obviously stronger

jeez, calm down everyone, everything's relative
there's still hundreds of mistakes that B- players do, us D+/C- players do a few hundred more

even flash says he's still lacking skills
Getting to D+ or C- for the first time is still a nice accomplishment despite of that.

LOL

B- is better than average but still gets rolled by gosus. Honestly it sucks because I spend so much time practicing and feel nowhere near the top.

Tetra as in saracen?

I could never beat him. I beat his PvZ when I was a low D level player, but he had just started playing PvZ..so it wasn't a big deal . Although ZvZ is probably the matchup in which it is easiest to beat someone of higher rank.
