No kidding

D --> B sounds SO intense

I remember skyglow said that getting from C- to B would take an entire year with 4 hours of playing a day

Well, D to C- actually isn't that bad if you have someone training you who is good at helping you. I'd say about 10 minute's worth of explanation/commenting from intrigue (over several months) was the biggest influence other than practice in me getting from D to C-.

I've lost to D- while D+. It depends on the D-, the matchup, and the map tbh...
Real D- are prettty bad. Maybe you faced an exceptional one?


I played a D- zerg today.. totally raped me. (I'm a C- btw, this guy just joined my game and i was like... hell, why not!) Turns out he doesn't have D- play at all, probably B or higher.. He had a whopping 350 apm and amazing reaction to whatever i did. After the game, I checked his stats and matches on iccup.com, turns out it's a fake D- account.. he had 20+ losses to the same freaking person.. all 2-3 minutes long. Either he had a zvz 4 pool micro fest with his friend or he wants to SUPER noob bash with this REALLY smurfed smurf account. I was totally discouraged up to that point. He was from korea too. ugh gg

On topic: Getting your APM up should be the main thing to focus on right now. Everyone that says APM doesn't matter.. doesnt matter. I averaged 104 APM in 2007 (150+ games total) only playing a few games a week. I watched a lot of progamer FPVODS and just tried to copy what they did in the game (including spamming selecting workers in the beginning) My apm shot up to 170-200 within a month into 2008. Another month passed and I was peaking at 220 average in a game. (650+ games played this year) and now my average is 280+ APM per game.

good luck with your goal.
