Everyone has probably played custom 1v1 games in their time, like when you're tired from having the normal ladders matches. but then theres those really annoying people who never ladder, and stay stuck in custom games, and just in general suck really bad.

anyone also think that there should be some kind of ranking system in casual, unranked custom games? im only saying this because I play my games in irregular hours, and most of my friends aren't on, and when i want to practice my BO/macro/micro i don't have a practice partner that is in my skill range, simply because you can play with diamonds AND bronze people in custom games. I've played against a high diamond guy, as well as a masters guy in custom games, and it was really fun playing with them, but when i get matched up with the bronze/afraid to ladder guy, its just such a waste of time, and my pride doesnt allow me to quit to save time.

but yeah sorry im kind of just venting. some annoying guy just got matched up with me twice, and all he did was proxy barracks and mass marines on the wrong side of the map.

You said you don't have a practice partner for the hours you play, but it seems like it would fix all your problems. So try to find one on TL or something!
I can only play starcraft when I am shit canned. IPXZERG is a god.

There's this:

but apparently the project died because of some ToS change or the creator stopping work on it or something

People make clans or teams in order to avoid these kinds of issues.
