ex: I bring water when I play tennis because I know getting dehydrated would make me play badly. I also make sure I don't play on an empty stomach. It's hard to do your best when you handicap yourself by malnutrition. | ||

I love sc2/dota so i never feel playing is a burden or anything. Its just that when i win, i normally want to rest and read TL/reddit, but when i lose, i feel like i was bad and i wanted to play more to improve. Until now i have almost got the 1000 win achievement with the avg win ratio of 50%+. Dealing with losing streak is not that uncommon for me and i can endure it most of the time. My method was to blame yourself when you lose, not the game, not the other player but YOU! On September 02 2011 10:28 John Madden wrote: "fuck team EG, fuck Chris Loranger, im going to sleep!! When i wake up, i will kill the rest of ESPORT!" Are you serious man? I was never a big fan of team EG. I followed them after PsyonicReaver start streaming his beta sc2 games from the EG house in Phoenix and i dont find any of them interesting. I dont like idra personally since BW. The only 2 person i love from EG are sirscoot and Incontrol but after the last incontrol EG scandal, I really gave up on following EG. Mean while, despite hearing rumors from my TL mods friend about HuK to EG, I keep thinking they were trolling me until the very last. When i see the picture on myeg.net i even thought it was an april fool kinda joke. The news really hit me hard as some one who has been follow TL since BW days. I know by now that signature of mine is kinda outdated but i like to keep it there to remind me how much i love TL. | ||

Then again, I've gone for days without eating, so my body can handle something like that. | ||

Did you get tired at all? + Show Spoiler + When I get tired or start to tilt, I take a break for a half hour or so and then come back on. Then I'm good to go for another few hours i was not tilt at all. Funny how i can 'observe' myself down fall by physical aspect though. Due to lack of food and water, i can feel my throat burning in the end. My mental state also not that balance and im extremely sensitive with loud noise when i cook after. After i stand up from the desk, i can feel my legs muscle refusing to work for a couple seconds. The only time i got so emotional angry during the entire run was when a Dbag zerg start calling me n-word and start insulting me despite i said GL every begining of the game. I just F11 and mute him. I also only noticed that i have played a long time when i lost to a very easy to defend 1 base Terran all-in. Like i have 2-3 obs in that game scout his SINGLE base, saw every thing coming before hand, stay ahead in 1 base always and still lose. At that moment i know that i have to stop playing soon but losing drive me into frenzy mode lots of time so i only stop 5 games after that. | ||

I played 10 games today and WOW it makes me mentally tired i had been there. Once you understand the game and can find the reason why you lose (what you did wrong/didnt do), the loses will become lessons instead of frustration and everything become possible. | ||

Say you had to do this everyday, or had a short timeline to get better , what would you do differently? (Have that other thread in mind where the guy wants to beat a GM in 1 week hehe) Also, any thoughts on why they got rid of the OTBG (One True Black Guy), Hiram. well the main inspiration was first came from artosis video on oGs house. TheWind commented that when you wake up in the morning, its best to play before you eat anything since your concentrate will be at best. I started to play 2-3 games everyday before i eat my breakfast. Then i watched yellow show on sc2 where the wind said you need to play at least 30-40 games a day to get better, i thought i might try that. I was really close to GM back then and wana test myself how far i could go. So far 20 games appears to be a lot. Its not like i cant play more, which i definitely could, but i dont really remember the games i played. I really cant recall them and learned from what happen. My body became a function: scout and react with no memory stored. Not sure if this is a good or bad thing but i have played 2 guys PvP twice where i beat them hard first game and 2nd game they just try to blind counter my style. The PvPs become really weird where both players 14 gates, use all 5 chrono on probes and i got the gas steal on him. Macro PvP is fun and weird....... If i had to do this everyday, i probably wana order pizza instead of cook for myself. Also i wish my canadian ISP dont have bandwidth limit so i can stream the games. Having people watch you 1v1 make you less 'lonely' and sometime viewers have really good 3rd sight into your game. | ||
