My highest rank ever was D+ playing mostly PvT and TvP and avoiding zergs like the plague but I'm thinking about starting to ladder again and making protoss my main race. How hard is ICCUP compared to what it was before? I've heard that since SC2 that the general skill level has increased since most garbage players migrated to SC2. I was definitely garbage at broodwar because I never had what it took to practice the game seriously, but playing against bots is pretty boring.
My average APM level dropped from about 220ish to about 100-110 ish in games against bots. Is anyone else in a similar situation maybe interested in playing games with me to get up to snuff (by snuff I mean back to a terrible D level) I know I would just get dominated on ICC right now and I don't remember much about specific builds other than like a 1 gate goon FE or 2 base reaver or the TvP flash build and I remember the ayumi build for TvZ as well.
I can't run SC2 on my computer so migrating isn't really an option. I've been watching some BW games recently and I'm interested. Is it worth the bother?

Of course it's worth it!
imo iccup level's about the same as it was, at least til c, where it starts becomes easier than it used to be
less populated though TT

i've been wanting to play more as of late, but my time on is very sporadic at best. You can add me on ICCUP sMi.tonight and if I'm on I'll most likely play with you.

DUDE YOU SHOUDL TOTALLY DO THAT
Lol hit me up on Iccup, my id: ReZuya
only practice PvP, can't deal with zergs and terrans lol but I'm really good PvP, c- (lol)

I'm not sure iccup got harder. I've been playing BW again after a long time of sc2 and I'm doing much better than I ever have (still awful but I'm getting closer to D+ than I did before  ). Maybe thousands of games of sc2 helped my mechanics or the race switch helped, idk.
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "worth the bother" though. If you have fun, you can keep playing and if you dont, you can stop. =)

Well, your computer may not be able to play SC2 but it sure as hell has the ability to scare me shitless
-_-;;
You're the reason I barely got any sleep all summer. God fucking damnit.
Glgl on ICCUP though, i've been wanting to get into it myself (i'm fairly new to BW = i'm complete and utter shit) just because my computer atm has some issues so SC2 is a lil' bit too heavy weight, and BW is like a paper plane compared to SC2, which is a jumbo jet.
Unfortunately, when I went to ICCUp's website I saw I had to download and stuff? Wut? Technology???? i'm out.

Don't worry about it, you can play BW on a slab of slate.

I need to improve in BW. I am sooooo bad, probably worse than D-

Play. It's where the gosus+people with self-respect are.
|
Play! It's soooo fun!
And Tonight. OMG, I want to play with you some time.
|
You should get back into BW, I find it more entertaining than SC2, but that's just my personal opinion.
I could be your TvP practice partner (I play P). =P
