I just finished week 2 of my practice, and can't believe the difference just working on my queens has made.
I began the week feeling pretty confident in how I managed 1 and 2 bases with queens, only to realize I was completely horrid! But after working on queens, I began to see big improvement only after a few games. I was amazing at how fast I was getting maxed, and how much easier it was to take a 3rd and 4th base. This one change has given me a whole lot more confidence in myself and how I play.
I will not hide the fact that I unfortunately slacked this week. I'm not happy with myself for doing it, however I am not going to dwell on it, but instead push myself extra hard this week. I did not give myself something new to work on, instead I'm going to take one more week to work on my queens and overlords, then after the holidays I will have something new on my plate.
I want to give a special thanks to all those who are supporting me, I've gotten ALOT of help from the community, and can't express how much it has all ment to me.
And for those who are interested, here is this week's video.
I like your dedication to updating us with your progess and I support what you are going for, but you are not playing enough games to even go from Gold to Diamond. No matter how much you are learning through studying the game your execution isn't going to be good enough. I've looked at your match history and since December 8th you have played 20 1v1s. If you are even remotely serious about becoming a pro you should probably be playing at least 20 games a day.
You seem to have the right mindset and you aren't stopping your videos after just 1 or 2 like some people, but playing 1 or 2 games a day just will not cut it. Pro players work extremely hard to get to the point they are at, I think you should work a little harder.
Good luck, hopefully you can finish out season 5 a higher league.
this is an early update, but I started my new job this week. This is great news for me, but this is my first time working a "Swing" shift, and I have had a REALLY hard time getting used to it. I know I need to get more games in, and am trying my hardest, but I have to make work my top priority in order to keep myself alive =P
You are right Cham, I need to play more games than I am, and I'll be there soon =D
