Woo! After having some rough days since the patch came out, I finally made it into Plat 1!

TvZ is still giving me lots of trouble. I keep dying to early lings. Maybe I gotta stop being so greedy in the early game.

Definitely noticing a lack of Protoss on the ladder since the patch came out also. Which is a shame, but right now I'm getting killed in TvP so maybe that's a good thing? lmao.

TvT is a lot more fun now, now that Tankivacs have been removed. Lucky for me, I was garbage at Tankivac micro, so I never used it in the last patch. Nothing new really for me, other than that now my opponents can't do those funky maneuvers to kill me.

Overall I think I'm having more fun with SC2 than I ever have really. That might because I'm starting give less of a damn on whether or not I lose or win. I'm having fun either way, and hopefully learning from my mistakes.


Also, going to start streaming a lot more every day hopefully. I think it would be a cool thing to do and it's something I've always wanted to try and dedicate myself to so hopefully a few people will watch here and there and I can have fun with it.



NEXT STOP DIAMOND 3!!

Congrats! Which builds are you using? I am a Gold Player and trying to find some easy to execute builds. Or are you more of a freestyle player?

Hey, I've been doing a gas first Reaper FE pretty much every game. I have just been playing around with different variations of Reaper FE since I started LotV. I'm not sure if what I'm doing right now is any good or if it's an actual build that I haven't seen yet, but come check out my stream some time!

Also don't hesitate to add me to friends, we can play together!

the ladder is a zero sum game. for every player that advances on the ladder is a player who falls to a lower part of the ladder.

I'd rather be on the advancing side of things... lol.

Honestly though when I was playing SC in the past, each loss would just destroy me and I'd get so upset. Now-a-days I find that I can let the loss slide off my shoulders a lot better and not have it impact my entire day, which in the end helps me love SC even more.
