This would actually be a great read for any bronze reader - much more constructive than prior posts....Really liked the perspective addition from being a Lol noob...Gheed might not be a total piece of shit after all...

Really quick near the end of your blog. this paragraph:
The moral of the story is as follows: don't listen when a bronze player tells you he knows how to play, because he doesn't. That's why he's in bronze. It's not that he can't physically click as fast as other people. It's not that he doesn't have as much time to practice as other people. It's not even really because his mechanics are that much worse than other people's. He's bronze because he's thinking, and therefore playing, poorly. As soon as he pulls his head out of his ass and realizes what he's doing wrong, he'll be surprised how quickly he finds himself in gold.

Should be, "He's bronze because he's thinking poorly, and, therefore playing poorly"; take that for what you will ^_^

EDIT: also,

It pains me greatly that one of my friends is one of the sad bronzies that Gheed beat with his worker rushes, not once, but twice. And this is your prototypical hopeless bronze with hundreds of games who plays regularly and often...

I think you need to stage an intervention. Friends don't let friends lose to worker rushes.

This is fantastic. Hard to believe there are people who don't know how to attack move, or try to float their CC away when they've lost. Guess people just like to turn their brain off.

It's actually fine as is. The punctuation makes the meaning unambiguous. If he'd written "He's bronze because he's thinking and therefore playing poorly", there would be a problem.

I agree with what you're saying, because it's so true for me -- and it's really hard to just make stuff if you have no idea what to make. And you don't know what to make because you don't know what you need to do, or maybe you think you know so you come up with a particularly poor way to do it, because you didn't know about all the other, better ways.

You see someone like that and think, "This doesn't make any sense at all, what is this guy thinking? Is he thinking?"

While I tend to cringe at things like a diamond level caller on ItG asking about general late game composition issues (because the most obvious solution at less than a progamer level is simply to have more units), I really like the conclusion about improper thinking in the lowest leagues. I’m going to point out dApollo because both his personal videos and the Learn 2 Play Series powered by Qpad are an example of let’s say a platinum level of content at minimum. The DotA 2 series was a bit better (and the Quake one seemed great) but a content explaining the basics of SC2 is still missing – I hear djWHEAT say that quite often. Such content should be tailored for someone with no RTS knowledge, otherwise you’re skipping what would help most players in the bronze league. Talking about taking drones from gas after speed, scouting cross positions with an overlord on Antiga Shipyard and reacting to lack of units with proper aggression in the first bronze league tutorial? That’s college, not elementary school .

Fruitdealer is a drunk that plays LoL? That's really sad.... I mean I know he coaches ST's LoL team but the way you put it made it so depressing Gheed.
