Your greedy 1 rax expo relies on good scv/marine micro so either play a safer build or get better at micro.
No I'm never serious.

I'd suggest maybe it was Bisu[Shield] but I doubt he'd make A- on current form...

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'


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+.


Where are you pulling your facts from? Reaching a certain rank is a variable factor that is different for everyone, but most people would find it very difficult to reach the B- skill level from D+ in just a few months on their own. Simply "if you play a lot" isn't going to cut it.

Also, the difference between D+ and B-, and "competitive foreigners" isn't 10x different; it's an undeterminable factor that isn't as overestimated as you may think.

I agree with this, D+ reaching B- is hard, no doubt you'll have to be dedicated and practice a lot with watching replays of your failures. B- to A+ also will take longer, but for some individuals will be really easy. Some people are just better at mechanics than others, and need less practice which would fit the term "talented' and i've known guys that jumped from B- to A- in very short times
