After a few days I realized that I have a low willingness to play during weekdays. And that it will probably take a ton of time for me to get out of diamond. While I was trying to learn and improve I eventually find out that I don't know enough about the game, the other races particularly. I got kind of disappointed and didn't really touched the game. Yesterday I got the idea that I should get the solo 1000 win portrait because it looks so sick. I was cheesing for like 20 games with not that much of a success I could do nothing with protoss (everyone could scout my cannon rushes and besides proxy 2 gates -that'd be insanely easy to hold- I couldn't come up with any other protoss all-in). Today I was worker rushing literally every game :D and with like a 1/100 winratio I finally got the 100 win portrait.
Then I noticed myself and realized how disgusting it is. I was watching Dreamhack looking closely at Naniwa's insanely cool build. With protoss it'd be easy to practice these builds and get wins because of them. So I come up with the idea of only playing against Z with P and T in order to know them more and eventually helping me out in my Z play. I will be auto-quitting the games against the other races with P and T.
I'm quite certain that it will be beneficial on the long run. And I've been getting sick of ZvZ so it's a great time to do it. This way I can wait for blizzard to solve the problem concerning Mutas.
So it's a win-win situation in the end. I will be able to look into the other races and grow my e-penis and get that nice portrait.

Since you'd be autoquitting games you'll be facing worse opponents than your skill so I don't know how usefull the practice would be. I think it'd be better to just play random against all opponents or find a zerg practice partner to play with as T/P if you really want to do that.

I don't understand. If your goal is to improve (get out of diamond), then you should just get yourself together and play a decent number of games a day. No cheese or autoquit bs. If you cant manage that, SC2 may probably not be the right game for you.
If you value fancy portraits that much, then by all means, cheese your heart out, but dont expect to improve or anything. Just play ladder for a few hours every day and youll get those achievements soon enough.

Better option would be to get some Zerg practice partners. Check out the TL IRC, or the Practice Partner thread, or a large group devoted to people helping other people (Should be one on each server) and hammer out a few games...though I do admit it can be difficult to find someone to play more than 2-3 games at a stretch with. I was fortunate that I had a practice partner who'd play 5-6 games a day and I used that to learn a Phoenix style over 3-4 sessions. Dunno what I would have done without him :/
