So Gheed are you going to become a psychologists for the Bronze Leaguers that you defeat with your worker rush.

It must be so disheartening to Lose to Worker Rushes. -_-

wow im speechless (but at least i can still write)

I dont know whether to be disgusted at the amount of hate this has been spreading at the lower tiers of the ladders

Be indifferent because anyone playing starcraft could learn to beat this, if they spend 60 mins of forums or asked some1 in a chat channel

Or be happy on your behalf that starcraft 2 accomodates everyone, even someone willing to play 3000 boring games to farm a portrait.

ill let you know if i decide anything

If you see your opponent is Terran, leave the game immediately.

I have heard that the first person to get the dark voice icon did that. However, Blizzard said (in a kind of roundabout way) that leaving a bunch of games would be manipulating the ladder. I doubt they would do anything, but I don't want to spam leave games anyway. I fear that if I left too many games it will become difficult to find a match, which was what happened at the top/low end of the Warcraft 3 ladder. Plus a disproportionately high number of bronze league players are Terran.

I would certainly hope so.

Good read. Do you ever plan on taking ladder serious again or just stick to bronze to interact with enraged people?

Eventually I'll rise back up. We'll see how badly my skills (such that they were) have deteriorated.

RE: 'Why waste my time' posts: I do it because it's fun, and it gives me something to write about, which I have fun doing. My losses are 1 minute long, my wins average 5 minutes, and I usually do it while watching TV or a stream. So I'm not wasting any more of my time than anyone else who plays a video game.

That, in fact, you are all noobs. That the fact that you even have a similar MMR to someone who only worker rushes means that you are dogshit, and should be ashamed. Why are you here? Why are you in this game? Is not Farmville more suited to your level of skill? Agh!
Rather than learn how to attack move and defeat those worker rushing them, though, these trouser-wearing plebeians refuse to stand for what they deem the "faggotry" that I and others like myself perpetrate against their kind in their league. So they mete out justice with their weapons of choice: delirium and frantic, often penis-related insults. These internet warriors make up for what they lack in sense with sheer tenacity.
Don't be so high and mighty. People just aren't good at the game. That's why they're in bronze. Yeah, sure, they get mad all the time. If you don't like it, there's an option to mute your opponents ingame as well as in chat.

If you want to humiliate people who you know aren't good at the game just to get achievements or decals, be my guest. But don't take a shit on their faces and demand that they enjoy eating it too.

So much of this reminds me of when I tanked my account after switching races.

Every once in a while you run into another who's ventured down from the higher leagues. You show up at their ramp ready to end the game only to see a...forcefield!?...with units and workers a plenty ready to defend? Their defense holds and you realize you've run into another.

What has brought you too to these forsaken lands? You do no belong here.

Loved reading this. Your writing style is very good and you mix humor with classical English, it kind of feel as if Edgar Allan Poe rose from the dead to troll bronzies.

Im a BM bitch but some of that is pretty harsh lol

On a side note, losing to a worker rush is pretty hillarious.

I lost to it once when i first got the game, my immediate question was, how do i attack move? i knew it existed, i just didnt know how

I dont understand how people can be so bad at this game i know most people start in bronze and progress up like i did, but there arent as many newcomers to SC2 like before, so this is the same old noobie boobies

Insanely funny post. On the side note, I think the reason there are a lot of people in bronze thinking that they are only stuck at bronze because of cheese is that with that kind of mentality, you will be stuck in bronze.. am I making sense o_O

The problem with excessive trolls is that it's the NA bronze league, not bronze league in general. SEA is much friendlier.
