So, here's how it started.
on't worry i'm not gonna whine about my Personal life*
I am however gonna whine about Sc2.

Not just Sc2, Sc2 is awesome. But a certain match I had in Sc2.
Not just a certain match, It was a zerg opponent.
Not just a zerg opponent. A Masters Zerg Opponent.
Not just a normal match. But a Tournament.
Not just a tournament. A Koth (Pokemon style) Tournament.
Not just a normal Koth(Pokemon style) Tournament. A Match where 16 people Obs.
....I think that's enough.

Anyway, Meta was the map (My favourite) And I Ffe, Now, I did some epic scouting. I scouted his 10 pool. Blocked his expasion. Saw he was going to the third, blocked that with my probe. Checked the Xel'naga tower on the way back. Saw his gold expo.

So. I decided to do a build I loooove to do when this happens. 7 gate. Yes 7 gate. It works and that's why i use it. *Yadda yadda yadda* Probe planted 2 forward pylons. Warped in 3 zealots by his base. Drew his army to them. Attacked his gold with about 12 stalkers and 4 sentrys. He pullled back and had enough roaches and spine crawlers to block it off. *Micro war* Neither of us won.

So I thought i was done. To my suprise I wasn't. He basicully all in'd me. Mass ling and roaches. I got 1 immortal out. Followed by mass stalkers and into Collosi. Held off his attack. Was feeling pretty good. But i dunno whether it was nerves or anything because. This is the point i start playing bad. (Masters player by the way ) So, I attack and expand behind it. *Ha! He gone mass lings!??!? Zealots and collosi biiiitch. Counter???? I think not cause ima pwn your ass.* He dropped my base with lings. Got my robo bay down. 3 collosi out. No therma lance. Was kinda scared. Pushed his gold (Again) and he countered with Mass lings in my base. Warped zealots and had cannons placed. All good.

He flanked my collosi and stalker army with roaches. lings came in the side. Ugh. Gg.

It was not a gg. By me anyway. It didn't deserve a Gg.

I played so badly it sickens me. Literally. If anyone talked to me, I would have hurt them alot.
So in the lobby. No one said anything. And i couldn't be bothered staying to watch the rest of the Clan war. And I quit.

I love the game. I love ladder as I don't get mad. But Tournaments. I hate. This is one of my first and Bleh. Did not like it one bit...

I don't know why I wrote this but, hope you enjoyed my misery

Pressure sucks. It makes us play nervous, it makes us get mad. The only way to learn how to deal with pressure is by dealing with pressure. Just like other aspects of play - macro, micro, multitask, etc. need to be practiced, so does resolve. Keep playing in tournaments and clan wars, and your nerves will eventually settle as your confidence rises. Don't lose your fighting spirit. GLHF yo~

I like 7 gate too. Zerg have their imba mutalisks but as long as I have my imba wg tech, it's all good.

As for the pressure, I'm sure you will get used to it. Ladder used to be scary and high pressure too but you got used to it right? Same thing with tournies.
Probes are sooo OP
