You are insane, i can't believe how fast this went (i'm assuming you're gonna be diamond within a week, easypeacysqueazy). It's actually really encouraging and inspiring as to my own chances at getting diamond.

Grats on plat! 40 games in one day is impressive; I tend to get pretty mentally fatigued after about 5-6 1v1s haha. Though this post has inspired me to take a sick day and just mass game, it really is a good way to improve your mechanics.

With that kinda work ethic, you'll hit diamond in no time, just keep working hard at it.

Good job! I know what you mean about being "in the zone." It's so much better to play that way.

And 40 games in a day? Wow. I do like, five and I'm done, lol.

I quote everyone else in this thread when I say "Holy shit 40 games?"

It seems only yesterday I was reading your blog about your promotion to silver. Congrats on platinum - from my experience the skill level of platinum players is miles ahead of most golds, and you seem to be on the top of platinum already. You'll be diamond in no time. =)

Wow, look at that match history. Congrats on Plat, you will make diamond in no time. But dont be overconfidence.
You should reward yourself a nice dinner or something. 40 games in a day is quite a heavy workload.

Holyyy.... 40 games, in one day. I.. I am.. Oh geez that's insane!!!! You are really committed aren't you now? I can't even manage to fit that in on any day, and my nerves will probably kill me before I can even play like 10 games. Whew, that's a big feat. You'll be in diamond in no time, before I am.. -.- Need to play more!

Last 1v1 game on US: 8 weeks ago

Lets see how I go ^_^
