Between my two iCCup accounts I've FINALLY managed to reach my season goal, just 2 days before it ends!
+ Show Spoiler [Account that reached C+] +
+ Show Spoiler [Account I started laddering on] +http://www.iccup.com/starcraft/gamingprofile/mg.grobyc.html
I totaled 380 ladder games this season. That doesn't include all the other non-ladder games I played.
Not only was this a season goal for me, but it was a New years resolution throughout the year, and apparently I was close to not making that goal either ahahaha.
This season I've gone on losing streaks from 5 to 14 games in a row, mainly due to being stubborn and trying to re some B high kid who owns me 5 times in a row coupled with some other stuff. I don't know how much sooner I would have gotten here had I not been so stubborn.
On the other end of the spectrum, some highlights include beating a couple B-/B ranks, and one who was A- high 2v2, so I feel slightly better. Just slightly though :<
I also need to thank my buddy ilovezil for helping me along the way, from giving advice on games, to emotional support, to watching my stream and giving my feedback live on my stream. I never lost a game with that DT rush > 4 gate speedlot PvP zil (afaik)! <3
I'm not too sure what I'm doing from here. The season is nearly over, so there's not much to play now. I have a pool of friends who were waiting for me to reach my iCCup goal before hopping on SC2 with them, so I'll be hitting up the NA server in the near future. Whether I'll come back to ladder next season and possibly try to reach B- is not decided.
I've streamed a fair share of my ladder games this season and wanted to thank those of you who tuned in 
iCCup staff has actually offered me the opportunity to stream and cast the ICCCL this Saturday, so make sure to tune in to that! You can find more info here.
I think that wraps this blog entry up now; thanks for reading!

Well I've played the majority of my games on my mG. account. I was probably D+/C- on mG.Grobyc before I started laddering on the other account. Originally, the other accounts main purpose was to fool around with silly strategies, play my offraces, and warm up before I started laddering on my main account. Eventually it came to a point where I went on a huge losing streak on my main account and my alt account actually had more points. At this point I just kind of played on them both, until the beginning of the week when I went on a 14 game losing streak on mG.Grobyc (might have been one win in there, but it was still really sad haha). At that point I just grinded on my alt account because it had more points and the season was going to end soon. I haven't done like any schoolwork the past couple weeks because of this ;_;

And god damn was there a lot of Protosses this season. PvP galore ~_~
|
Congrats and thanks for streaming
I only played 5 games this season :/
My goal for next season is to play at least 100 games and I'll probably make another goal on what rank I want to get to after playing for a while.
|

Gratz! always a pleasure to watch your stream.
Good luck with your SC2 ladder adventure. Hope you'll stream those too.
|
Congrats man! I've been wanting to solidify C-, but I haven't been able to play a whole lot at all, so I think that it may even be difficult for me to solidify D+ now :S
Well done.

Way to go groby. How hard is C+ compared to the glory days of iccup?

I wasn't going to plan something huge for it really, but I was hoping to have a quality post for sure
Alas, I completely forgot and ended up posting right before you here lol:

I don't want to gloat, but to me it feels like every rank now requires the skill of one rank higher of that of a couple seasons ago :S (I.E. C D+ now = C- two seasons ago, B now = B+, etc)
edit: look at yenta's profile for example. Virtually same stats now at C that he was at C+ with previously:

Congrats on reaching your goal.
My goal was to reach C- this season but I stopped playing after ~60 games. Losing streaks to ridiculous cheese, me failing horribly, and like 300+ apm korean smurfs killed me.
Debating whether I should iccup next season or play some sc2. =P
|
Actually, I would have had C+ a couple days ago before I lost a but of points had iCCup not glitched one of the 30+ min PvZs I won, making me lose 75 points instead of gaining 100 o.O;; I sent in a manual complaint with the replay, but it never got reviewed >.>
Other than that, PvT on Desti is super gay. Well... Desti is super gay regardless.
|
congratz on C+ yo
I should really actually mass game on iccup n get to C+ instead of just doing 2-3 games and stopping >.<
|
Pleasure to help out, grobyc. Do try for that B- next season, I'm sure you can do it!
Congratulations man, you definitely earned it!
|

|

|
