I can't get out of D+ T___T (To C-) when I'm actually a C player.... WTF is wrong with me??? Iccup suddently just became some noob bashing pit.


Uh.. maybe you're not a C player then?

Unless iCCup has reset recently then there should be no problem getting out of D ranks at this point in the season. If you are truly a C player it's like a walk in the park.


nah plenty of C people from last season have issues hitting it now (like they're stuck at C- whereas last season C was ezwalk).

Although sounds like it's time for you to train korean style! Doing one BO over and over is damn nice, helping my PvZ out so much O.O (especially if you play only infrequently like I do.)


Dude this late in the season is ridiculously easy for C players to get through D ranks. I took a break for like two months, came back and hit C- with ~75% win record while playing my off races more than my main. I still peak out at C but the skill gap between D and C is ginormous.
It felt like gravity.

Man I just came back into Starcraft and started playing ICCUP for the first time. It's so amazing, I don't think bnet will ever see me again.

I just hit D+ [now at 2900] yesterday. Going to try to make C-/C with the next week or two.

Msg me for some XvT: angrydrunk

Great OP by the way.
People who fail to distinguish Socratic Method from malicious trolling are sadly stupid and not worth a response.

I just hit D+ last night too

pretty disappointed it took me that long, but even though my tvz improved a lot, my tvp now went to horrible

T is much harder than toss. D+ is more than honourable, don't worry.

yeah because the whole reason tvp is difficult is because of fd terran AMIRITE?

openings have shit all to do with how difficult a matchup is

its not like I siege expand and my mid/lategame is suddenly easy and I dont have a care in the world

Go ahead and argue that D/C level protoss is harder or as hard as D/C level terran in TvP

you'll lose

But they do have a unit that does 70 damage with the longest range in the game.

On the other hand, congratulations on reaching D+... I can't play iCCup enough to make D+. I'm like... at 1600.

good job yo! it does feel good to hit a new rank through all the hard work. i'm aiming for B-, but it won't happen likely because my PvT is at 35% win rate. anyway, congrats! now onto something higher!

yeah there is nothing funnier than fending of 1 gate DT rush or 9/9 gate and then having the protoss just completely suck after that

at D+ anyway lol
