When i first started playing starcraft II in december of 2011 i never expected myself to enjoy this game this much and play it so excessivly. To me it just seemed like a normal pc game. oh boy how wrong i was.You see, in the start i had absolutly no clue on how to play, i had no RTS experience at all. In the start i did nothing but lose, but i kept playing nonetheless. As time went on i gradually got better. I still remember the day i was promoted to silver league. I was so happy it felt like a god given gift. That day i proved myself that i could improve. But after a couple of months i realised i had a huge problem in front of me. And that was my behavior. I used to be a super hardcore bm'er. i said things to others you couldn't imagine having been said, and even worse, some times i ment what i said..... Just before summer of 2012 i destroyed my headset after a lost match. I was dissapointed in myself. I realised i had to change somehow. but i didn't know how.

Fast forwarding to this year....
Some weeks ago i broke my disc aswell. In order for me to play sc II i had to download the game from my account on battle.net. When i broke my disc i decided i was either gonna stop with this raging or quit sc II for good. A couple days went by and i decided to give it a last shot. So when i started playing again i no longer raged or bmed but i still felt extreme dissapointment and humiliation when i lost. But then summer came. I had graduated from middle school, i was so happy. Somehow someway i managed to transfer this happiness onto sc II in the blink of an eye i started improving my play. i said glhf i gg'ed if i lost. I was so happy. and on the 21st of june 2013 i got promoted into platinum league. I had never ever expected myself to get this high into the ladder system. Im just so happy now if i can keep my mood up and practice alot i belive i can get to diamond aswell.

More gg more skill. Can't say it better then that.
