It's difficult for me to get better at Starcraft since I don't really like to ladder, it's too intimidating and I have little motivation for it, but I love playing 1v1's with friends (although I only have like 1 that plays )! All the pressure is gone, which makes it easier to improve. And always having somebody to look at a replay with you and help you see your mistakes, and give you tips on how to avoid them would be a huge help too
I really want to improve, so, if anybody is interested, either PM me here on TeamLiquid, add me on Skype (itisissc), or add me on Starcraft 2 (Itisis.567). I'm usually on in the evenings of weekdays, after around 8:00pm PST and before 12:00am. And on weekends, any time between 6:00pm and before 2:00am
I am on the US/LA server
If anybody has any questions, just ask :D
