Hello TL,
It has been a while since I made my last blog because I didn't feel it was as powerful as I would like it to be. But, this blog I would like to focus on my progression on the game Starcraft 2 and my life. SO far I have been watching a lot and I mean a lot of ROOTDestiny stream just getting useful tips from when he is coaching or when he is yelling retard magnets! Then there are times where I am doing practice games with people that are in much higher leagues then me that say I am definitely in the wrong league.

Therefore on the ladder system locked on the 5th of July if my memory serves me correctly. With that I couldn't progress into plat nor Diamond. But with Season 3 coming right around the corner and enough practice I should be able to get into Diamond and further make my progression into becoming a better player. Then maybe I can face real players that actually practice build timings and actually try to win and not try to fuck around. But, my main downfall is I really don't know on where to start on progressing into a better gamer. I mean I have plans to go to MLG Orlando because I am saying up for that when I move back to FL. Just to get the experience and the feel of the tournaments and such.

Moving back to Florida will be interesting because once I get there I have a friend that is letting me devote my full time into Starcraft because he knows how much i enjoy the game and how often I play, watch, and observe games in Starcraft. I hope this is the best for me to actually sit down and practice everyday. Even stream to get some advice from some viewers even though I will make a fool out of myself but I don't really care. I have to start some where right?

The one nice thing I remind myself is that from a diamond/master level player told me that he struggles against me and he has even told me I should be at least in mid-high diamond on how I play and my multitasking skill I have develop over the course of time I have been playing this. Hell, I am sure I am going to get some trolls in the postings about "Hey you can't do this.blah.blah." type of bs. But you know I always want to turn around and just do it and motivate myself further to make it to at least a semi pro scene. Just like how my friend sLeEpy has done it so far.

Any advice from the TL people out there?

Once I move to FL in August it will be average 8-10hrs a day on SC2 just laddering.

Do you know what the Heart of the Swarm means?

I'd say if you think you can't get any better from laddering, try playing custom games in which better your micro while you macro plays.
