In 6 months I been suffered from Tenosynovitis( or some kind of tendon disease). And now I am finally recovered from the disease. In these 6 months i was unable to play any sort of games, and if I did it would have made my treatment more difficult and maybe unable to cure my disease.( I've played some games while I had the disease which i regret now i did.)

Since Broodwar I have been a HUGE Starcraft fan and couldn't wait to try out Starcraft 2. I played it a lot with my friends and we had a great time in team games and custom games. Then I heard about GSL, Dreamhack, Blizzard cup, Day9, SOTG, TL. It made me to play 1v1 and begin to do serious laddering. I had some problems with that plan. First i got the infamous "anxiety laddering", School toke some time, and other game releases, which made the laddering going in snail mode. On top of all that the disease hit me, and i was unable to play. In these 6 months I was stuck to see awesome tournaments, and other Starcraft communities events. My "fanship" to Starcraft increased a lot(and I even bought some Starcraft merchandise). As the time was ticking i really missed to play Starcraft 2 and really wanted to do 1v1 laddering again. The whole time i have read, watched and heard about tactics, and inspiration. This is where i said to myself, "if i ever get cured from this, i will only play Starcraft 2, and try to do serious laddering".

Now I am finally cured, and ready to play Starcraft 2 1v1 laddering. I will start from this very day, doing laddering again. Climbing the top of my league, get promoted and be a good Starcraft 2 player. This blog will be used to keep my motivation up, and to share my experience on how Starcraft 2 is from my perspective after 6 months "watch and learn"(and reading on TL without posting anything self).

So it begins my quest to the top, i may not be a pro player ever, but i have a hope i will hit master league some day. I will begin my first 1v1 fight right now! After I have prepared some lunch!

Thank you for reading! (sorry for my bad English but i finished my English lessons last year with not a very good result )

Sincerely
Onion
