Nothing is too late in life. I've played StarCraft:Brood War for 17 years, and I have never thought that I would achieve B- rank on iCCup server. I know that I have more losses than wins, but still it's a big achievement for me. I played StarCraft 2 since it came out for about 6 years, then I returned to StarCraft:Brood War in the last few months.Here are some screenshots:

Thank you! Now people don't want to join my game because I put C+/B- in my game name, lol. It's time for me to play on Fish server and get really good at StarCraft:Brood War.

Good work! I hit B for the first time after years last season, so I know how it feels! We played a ZvZ before I believe.

Add me on Fish if you're looking for some English speaking folk to talk to on Fish. Gets a little anti-social feeling at times:

I just got back from work reading all your replies. Thank you so much for your kind words. I can't put into words how much effort I put in during these last few months to really get myself to B- rank. It means a lot to me. Never give up! :D

Congrats for hitting B-!! It is a really cool achievement. The season is still early, you have plenty of time to hit B now and maybe even B+

If you can't put words, you can try to do a game recap of the game that made you a blue ranked player. We want to see screenshots and glorious annotations! gg

I beat a B- Terran today. The game was 30 minutes long. Too intense to handle. Here's the replay:
