It has been coming for quite some time. I have been beating silvers for the past 3-4 days. The computer has been matching me up against higher and higher ranked players. Finally, today while playing between Family Law and Property Law I was promoted.

The game featured me as an underdog to a zerg player. In a twist of irony this was the easiest win I have picked up since playing Silver league players. The guy honestly seemed a little clueless.

After watching the replay there are still some things that I need to work on. My macro is slipping when I make the timing push @ 7:30. I am missing SCV's when the attack is on. I still remember to make units. It has been a constant theme lately that if I manage to get my opponent sieged/stuck in his base, that I often focus too much on the attack. I will continue to make soldiers but depots and SCV production falls off. I need to not be so concerned with units that are not actively attacking. Instead, I should be focused on my base and only look @ those sieging units when they are attacked.

I also have funny replay for everyone. It features what I would consider the ULTIMATE all-in strategy by a zerg player.

Take a look:

That might be the only 6pool in the history of ever that ended with dignity from both players

Congrats on your promotion; keep yourself aware of your mistakes and many more rank-ups will follow
dont ever say that

I don't get it, it looks like a typically low leveled all in fail.
:) I play zerg. FOX AND KT ROLSTER COASTER FAN! Because I love everyone. Except bisu.

I thought the inclusion of drones into the all in for zerg was a bit odd. I had never seen it before in a 6 pool.

I have to imagine that it would fail pretty hard 95 percent of the time. Getting up a wall to stop a 6 pool tends to be a straight forward affair.

See Idra vs Jinro, GSL. Jungle Basin for drone pull.
