I switched to zerg, yeah i switched so fast. And it has paid results! Even beat Ma Jae Yoon in a final showdown to earn my stripes! =)

[image loading]

My strategies of choice:

ZvZ: 14 gas 14 pool Speedling/Roach timing -> scout and retreat if he's going mass lings or mass roaches and transition into mutas =)

ZvT: 15 hatch into 7 roach pressure if i see reactor hellion, otherwise standard play.

ZvP: 14 gas 14 pool, into speedling pressure expand if he goes gateway first, nydus allin if he goes FFE with 2 spine crawlers built at his ramp. nydus allin is the funniest strategy ever invented in sc2

Congratz dude!!! :-) I don't want to sound like some elitist or anything, but I think Diamond these days can be aweful. I play High dia myself and I see ppl doing the dumbest shit ever.

Still gj though. The gap between Dia and Plat is pretty big
A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.

Indeed, the gap is nearly non existant.

Good job man. Welcome to Daimond. Get ready to be cheesed by terrans. And so on. Oh and be careful about your third people like to kill it a lot. Mutas are good too.

Not sure I agree.. I am in diamond and am pretty confident I could go 24/25 against most plat players in standard games ( I say this because a lot of my friends are mid-high diamond)

ehhh! the gap is pretty significant between all leagues; beaty of starcraft and all that. However take a nr.1 diamond player and low masters and for sure the gap is tiny... same with all leagues. top ranked master players play and win against low tier grandmasters all the time for example
