not mass game if u keep losing. there may be something psychological, and losing more decreases confidence.

I think you're relying too much on mechanics, and when something breaks your rhythm, it breaks your game at the same time.

Either you need to start making turret rings and planting mines in likely drop zones so you don't have to think about it, or you need to start watching your replays and figuring out the actual holes in your gameplay. Try scanning his army more often so you can guess if he's going for drop or not... In fact, scan more often period if your scanners are building up at all (it might be the hole in your game, check).

Other than that... I dunno... Dealing with drops in the main is designed to split your focus and hurt your push at those levels. Pull SCVs, send the next round of vultures, get back to what you're supposed to be doing in your push.

Just keep playing through the difficult periods and you shall emerge as a more experienced and more skilled player. Just remember to review every one of your losses and try and pinpoint the things that went wrong and how you should adapt your play.

One of my favorite ways is to close your eyes and remember one time you were really confident in your play, and pay attention to the colors and size of that image or video that shows up in your head. Change the colors and make the image extremely large, see it again... Then open your eyes, and you'll notice changes.

TvP on tau cross is murder, I really wouldn't suggest playing that map if you're in a slump. Just look at pro stats TvP.
Pulp can move, baby!

Yeah, I also think it is strategy that is creating the slump. Also unless you're a progamer, TvP usually favors P. Terrans aren't allowed mistakes in that matchup.

I don't know what the fuck happened. A week ago I went 11-1 against koreans in a single night. Mostly TvP. 3-4 nights ago, I went like 4-9 against koreans, mostly TvP. I really don't know what happened, but I was really angry that night. So fucking frustrating.

I'm only C rank, so not as big a deal as you, but I can still definitely relate. v_v

Protoss is really fucking easy. That's not me ranting or jumping on the "zomg, protoss ezmode" bandwagon. I'm just pointing out the facts. Protoss is an easy race. I can hop on a Protoss account and rape non-stop until C rank. I can almost reach the same rank as protoss as I can with Terran, the race I hardcore train.

Fucking frustrating. Yes there is lots of skill on protoss later on, but 1 simple mistake as Terran can cost you the game, even against a D+ Protoss. It only takes 1 small fucking mistake. Protoss is too forgiving. If you make a mistake you have about 20 seconds to react to it before it becomes a real problem.

/end rant.


That's not about Protoss being easy...you just blow ass with terran, sorry dude. D+ isn't a real rank thus irrelevant anyway.
Complete the cycle!
