Ok last blog was about having a epic win/loss ration and not getting promoted, which was funny because later that night i faced a gold player, AND WON.

That was pretty awesome although it didn't seem to do anything and went back to playing bronzes again. Lost a few more games that night although i won a few so i reckon my win/loss ration is about 60% now.

Anyway, i think I have only lost 2 games "normally" this season.

Everything else has been cannon rush, 7rax and 6Pool. Of course 4gate but that is standard and i expect it in every Protoss game now. Because of this I have been practicing my scouting non stop constantly rallying scvs around my base and surrounding areas. Its so hard as well in bronze to read what your opponent is doing because most of the time they don't. For example, 2gas may mean banshees in a higher league but it bronze it could just mean that they thought getting 2 gas is the right thing to do.

Well, im away to ladder again.

Sound like you really need to work on cheese defense.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

You can take it from me as someone who just got promoted from bronze that the road can be really frustrating. I don't exactly know what my win/loss was after they took that option out but I was on a huge win run and getting pretty frustrated to be honest. I was just crushing some of the bronze opponents I played and no promotion or anything. How could Blizzard be so cruel? But just stick with it, just like many people's posts had said, it wasn't too long before every match was versus silver or gold and then you know you're on the right track. Just take a deep breath, buckle down on your games, and I promise if you keep up a strong win/loss ratio the game will definitely promote you to where you belong.
