well today I played a lot of games, like I do everyday. I am really lucky to live in a dorm and only have to worry about college and sc2 so i get a lot of playing time in. it started off me getting cheesed for about 6 games and losing them all.
then I started to get matched vs plat players and the games were not even close (I am Diamond toss) then I started to win a lot more and losing to ling muta. I just cannot beat it and it really gets under my skin when a zerg tells me you never attacked me. I don't see how to attack with constant mutas in my probe lines. i guess zergs think that ling muta is simple to deal with when in reality it is really hard. for me at least. so after that ling muta game I started to open star gate and that worked really well.
I have a question though. Is what separates master's and diamond purely macro or is it something more? and if so what does separate the two? I have played a few games on ladder v master players and only beat 2 of them. I feel like I am close but so far away because the master players that beat me made it look so easy.
well, I will just keep practicing until I get there. Hopefully it will not be to long.
thnx for reading if you got through it. Just felt like talking and none of my real life friends play starcraft, and neither are they very competitive. they mostly just stick to RPGs

macro, micro, multi tasking, ability to read scouting information, and strategy usage/choice are all things that separate diamonds from masters
|
There is not one thing that completely separates masters from any lower leagues, there are diamond players with better macro than master players, it's just simply master players being on average better at everything, just like any other difference in ladder rank. If you want to get promoted you have to play better! the easiest way to play better is to identify the mistakes with the best effort-to-improvement ratio(not really easy, this is where asking other people for help is really good!) which is macro in a lot of cases!

alright, my macro is very good just I think it is my in game decisions that kill me the majority of the time. I always finish the game with 90 probes on average which is more than you need but its better to have more than less.
