I rarely play SC2 and maintain ~1200 points. I'm sorry to say, but if there is anything else in your life that you can do, you should pursue that, like school. I hate to be one to stomp on someone's dreams but pro gaming is something else entirely and is not just for everyone.

This is patently false. The "best" people in any field are consistently better than their professional peers, regardless of how much everyone else practices. Think chess, classical music, go, sports, etc.

I only said that there were no exceptions in Anders Ericsson's research. Of course there will be the occasional exception throughout the timeline of a given subject, but the point is that the exceptions are rare and in general 'talent' will make less of a difference over time.

Also, obviously it doesn't apply to some things. You can't be a heavy weight boxer if you weigh 60kg.

I think it is cool that you posted your goals/plans here, and have put in effort towards them. The few people with the confidence to do that get more personal fulfillment out of their life than those who do not.

you have a good trip with this! I support you in becoming a pro gamer! you'll have to get a lot of practice partners as well besides playing ladder. Man, so good to be young.
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

I was at 1650, but as you hopefully read, yesterday was a HUUUGGGEEE losing spree. My division has no big names, no, but in regards to points that really doesn't matter. Nowhere have I said "Rank 3 in my division".

Was wondering where this blog was, I remember reading it when I first started playing SC2... Not to be a downer, but it doesn't seem to be working, try going doing online tourneys, ones you don't need to travel to, there are plenty and that would help your name get out there.
