Every time I stay up til 5 am or so I get so pissed off because of all the fucking koreans on iccup.

They're like 1v1 D+ Python? And I'm all like well I'm not C- this season yet so ok let's go.

Then I get steamrolled and I'm like what did I do wrong. So I check bwchart first and bam.... 300+ apm.

Every fucking time. God it's so fucking frustrating when they're low rank and have just started new accounts and just own the fuck out of me.

edit: I don't have anything wrong with iccup, I love iccup. I just hate the people playing T_T

iCCup at night is so awesome.

Every time I stay up till ~ 5am or so I get a nice surprise because of all the lovely koreans on iccup

They're like 1v1 D+ Python? And I'm like Ooh I'm not C- yet so let's play!

Then we play this amazing game, which I just get so much more out of just playing foreigners!

And the best part is, ITS EVERY FUCKING TIME. SO AWESOME. GOD ITS SO INVIGORATING TO PLAY PROS AT SUCH A LOW RANK. I feel privileged every time i can play at night.

Hahahahaa

I get frustrated.

My PvZ abysmal, so when a korean beats me it's not a big deal.

However, my PvT is pretty good and my PvP is solid, so when I get owned PvP and watch and should've won based on what I see, then realize he had 300+ apm and therefore just had better probe production than me, it gets really frustrating that I just don't have the handspeed atm to beat that.

I love the challenge, and proud to say I've gone about 54% with mostly Koreans.
In fact I've gotten so much better at getting raped than winning a long game vs another mediocre player like me.

Although I admit, I PvT instead of TvT, and we all know how imba PvT is at the lower levels.

Since I don't care about rank/stats, I always enjoy playing against koreans. But I do play protoss, so I can still win at the low levels even though my opponent does 3 actions for every one I do.
No I'm never serious.

I don't think it's that much harder but you can't mess around as much. The "quick win" strats that you can roll off isn't going to fly so much vs. the Koreans, and if you get behind it's not easy coming back. I think the best method is just play solid and focus, a lot of times the Koreans will just self destruct.

I enjoy that generalization of the entire skill range of koreans
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
