Pick up another race or... reach high masters, there is meant to be a huge difference between the two so you could consider it a new league? I know it's not something you can confirm but you could just say you've reached your goal when you're playing GM/masters only.

haha I remember that experience. I remember playing on korean server for my first time (this was back when GM just came out). I was GM on NA and I got to masters easily but I still lost quiet a bit to high diamond players. Boy was that shocking


I got KR master yesterday pretty quickly. I remember it being way harder in WoL. Do you think the Korean server is just swarmed with white people that think they are special for playing on KR? Global play zz

Generally you could just go for gm. Remember that failure will never overtake you if your will to succeed is strong enough.
Or if you dont wanna go for gm you could just do what the others have said and go for top 8 masters on something.

Btw gratz on masters.
Do something today that your future self will be thankful for.

Just play and have fun, if you aren't having fun its ok to not play SC 2. But your options are keep playing and try to "master" your race and get in the top 8 of your league. Learn another race and try to get masters with them. Or play arcade games or dota 2 lol

I am having fun. I just enjoy it more when I have something to strive for, that's all.
<@Wikt> so you are one of those nega-fans <@Wikt> that hates the company that makes a game and everything they stand for <@Wikt> but still plays the game <@Wikt> (like roughly 30% of blizzard's player base, maybe much more...)

I basically stopped playing after I finished in top 8 masters and got to masters with all 3 races... just wasn't really motivated because I knew even if I played as much as possible without compromising more important aspects of my life, the best I could hope to do would be maintain my current relative skill.

Yes, since HOTS and global play came out KR has been easier then I remembered it in WoL
