Well, I've been really getting into StarCraft II over the past couple of weeks. I've played through the majority of the campaign and have started laddering a bit as well. I am presently trying to become a better Terran player, working on a standard MMM build. In addition to this I'm trying to nail down basic macro abilities (i.e. always getting SCVs and depots).

I'm not sure how often I'll post to this blog, but I figure it'd be good to have another indicator of progress available. Thanks to a fellow StarCraft II player (atmuh), I came across this site and I'm really enjoying it. On top of that I was introduced to day[9]. I am thoroughly enjoying his net casts and am gleaning a lot of information from them.

That's about it for my introductory post. I hope to update again sometime soon (with some actual content no less)!

If you say "plz" because it's shorter than "please," I'll say "no" because it's shorter than "yes."

Why does he have to go pro? Personally I, and a lot of other people, are just enjoying a game or two now and then and are completely happy to be plat/diamond? This mentality "if you want to play you should play to be a pro" is detrimental to many casual players, it's like saying that if you want to play BW, your ultimate goal should be A+ and you shouldn't be satisfied with C-.

Anyway, Day9 is a good source, the best thing about him is that you also learn how to analyze your own replays, which teaches you how to improve *your* game, if you have the time, I highly recommend him.

Was just meant to be a little joke from one of the other blogs that popped up earlier. Don't take it so seriously.
