Goodluck and all the best champ. Keep that average games per day up and you'll improve so fast. Make sure to watch a lot of your games again, even wins, to see what you or the other guy did wrong to lose.

If you ever get a SEA/US account, I'll be glad to practice (high master/low gm)

Thank god, he got banned, he was so full of lies. Please don't let him discourage you. Look, I find the belief that only certain types of people are good at SC2 is total bullshit. Practice like your doing now man and practice efficently and you can reach your goal. If someone discourages you and tell you can't do it ignore them if, it seems like you are really committed into this so I will encourage you, and your age is quite appropriate for it, your not wasting your life.

However, the only reason people don't like you doing this is because its a whole different lifestyle choice.

Why are you going roach hydra corrupter against protoss... As a protoss player that's the easiest to kill. You die if you don't make enough corrupters you die to colossi, and if you overmake them you die to blink stalkers. Practice using infestors!!!

But Collosi melt everything dude They melt my 6 infestors after they throw only 1 wave of fungal. And then they melt all the roaches How do I win roach infestor against double robo composition?

I'd love to switch to infestors, they're my favorite unit. But how to do that effectively? Neuroparasite? Infested Terrans?

I make hydra and corruptor currently just because my roach infestor got owned so bad But I'll give it another shot just because you say that.

I'm switching around my styles of play and experimenting a lot. Perhaps that's why Im still not masters yet. I prefer to learn more rather than get promoted quicker. It makes sense, cause I ultimately aim for top grandmaster anyway, not for low master.

ling/bling infestor works really nicely. fungal plus bane drops = T.T, also infestors = IT harass on expos, shuts down air play, and is nice extra defense against DTs.

Mmm baneling drops sound tasty I'll definitely give it a shot, thanks!

It seems like I'm having a losing streak today, so no master league promotion coming tomorrow... I got rly cold 2 days ago when I was walking outside and my immune system is recovering from that. As a result, my thinking is very clouded. I just had a gazillion hellions in my base all game long

But to hell with that, I'm still gonna be practicing even if I think too slow and lose everything I play. I get more experienced with every game I play, so I'll win even more once I feel better

Just listened to State of the Game where Huk said that foreigners are behind Koreans because they're spoiled and lazy and don't know what hard work is. It makes total sense to me. And I gotta say, I am lazy and spoiled ^.^

But no prob, I'll just change who I am.

Keep it up JoyfulSpirit, we need foreigners like you to level the playing field around the world instead of the usual Korean powerhouse. ALSO, Phase is quite ignorant considering he didn't take into account you play on EU and he plays the NA server. Being mid-high diamond league on EU server is like being like high diamond - low masters on NA. If you played on NA you wouldn't be anymore skillful yet in a higher league. Keep it up, it'll all pay off, and remember...

More gg more skill!

I remember that quote, its so cool.

This thread gave me an amazing motivation boost. I played 25 games today, even though I felt so shitty I thought I won't make it past 10. I was getting much more frustrated than usual after the losses. It's hard to keep going when Im on a losing streak and losing 20 games out of 25. But today I kept practicing and learning

Also, dealing with losses seems to be a skill by itself. In the past, if I was getting so frustrated I would stop playing until the next day, because I would be too scared I'd hurt myself or my PC out of the frustration. It can rly get to me when I'm tired after long practice. But I'm handling losses better and better Today I kept going and I'm a better player than I was yesterday!

lol i was C+ in broodwar at my best (that was pretty damn good compared to the majority of people who played bw), and i'm only high diamond. (still i beat all my masters friends). it's just really difficult to break into masters, you literally have to win 20+ games in a row. i know plenty of high diamond people that are masters quality but don't get bumped up due to cheesy garbage/difficulty of promotion nowadays. <3 high diamond/low masters is basically the exact same thing. low to high masters is a way bigger jump.

don't give up man. some people have natural aptitude at things, and shine without much practice. others have to work double as hard to get to that level. just practice hard. hard as you possibly can.

Hey man. Hang in there buddy. Many people learn and improve in bursts of accelerated learning rather than in gradual progression. Maybe you can change your routine or focus of improvement and reach a catharsis of sorts.

I think I actually improve more than my league shows. If I stuck to 1 playstyle and practiced it until perfection, I'd probably be in Masters already. But as soon as I started winning with roach hydra corruptor in ZvP, I switched to ling infestor baneling drops. Now I practice new style so I naturally fail at the beginning.

I do that switching around because I aim for tournament victories rather than just being high on the ladder. On ladder I need 1 perfected strategy for each matchup. For tournament BO5s I want to be unpredictable, thus I want to master different styles.

I think if I stuck to what I do best in ZvP and terrans suddenly stopped playing mech P I'd advance easily. But let's do it the hard and long-term oriented way!

I upload replays on this blog now and then. It might be quite an idea to upload a replay pack of every week. Sounds easy enough to do... I'll edit the main post!

Having 5 different but poorly executed strategies won't even get you to the bo5 stage of most tournaments.
