YA ICCUP LOL

You beat some D noobass players and you think you can talk about the level of play on ICCUP? Oh you're surprised? Join the 50x other noobs who make this exact blog but at the least don't brag about it like it means something. Play 100 games at D you'll probably go 60-40.

You played a 1-3, a 30-60, a 1-7, a 0-2, and another 30-60. These are people who are in the huge negative records and D- ranks at the VERY END of the season. Do you REALLY think they are representative of the level of ICCUP?

I don't know if iccup follows a specific time pattern, but it seems like they reset the ladder when someone is close to olympic rank. I guess it's going to take another 2 or 3 months.

edit: whoops 4 players hit olympic already, okay forget about this post ^^


It resets every 3 months....

I just had a higher expectation of a ladder that's all. I don't remember people being that bad on any other ladders.


you played a bunch of noobs, how is that representative of iccup in any way?

I'd advise you to play about 30-50 games before passing any judgment.

D this late in the season = mostly newbies.

Makes sense seeing how all the noobs are stuck on D-/D/D+ while those who are better have probably reached their "real" ranks by now. I don't get why they shouldn't play ladder if they're newbs though, it's probably the fastest and best way to improve for them ;p

I have a mac... the Obs version of Python works for some reason.

The non obs makes Starcraft crash and quit as soon as the game starts.

You got lucky/unlucky (depends if you're going for good stats or good games ), that's it. D level players can be anything, from total noobs to people who just reset their acc and want to noob bash.

yea, I assumed that people who know about and play a starcraft ladder are at least a certain skill level. I mean why would you go on a ladder if you are a complete newb anyways, lol. People have like 30% win rate after like 80 games.


it all depends on the time you play really. At the beginning of a season, you barely find a newbie on D ranks, towards the middle or end of a season all those newbies start playing on icc because then there are opponents on their level. I just played a few games on D rank and you're right lol.

oh when does the season start/end?

I believe it ends in about a month around March. I know we're at like the 2 month period already

Lol. I can easily go 10-0 on D in the evening (like 6 pm est?) When I played Monday morning(1-5am) I was abused by the Koreans in so many ways. Went like 4-9. :[

It took him 24 minutes to beat sandster who took 26 minutes to beat a d- and 20 minutes to beat a guy who's 0-6.

Going to win courage sometime soon?

Well what do you expect when everytime a shitty newb player comes here asking for advice everyone says GO PLAY ICCUP.

There was a day when crappy people didn't go on ladders. Those days are over. I blame the proscene.

I know, congrats on the red LR!

Seriously though, the disparity between Korean time and every other time is just crazy. You really have to see it to believe it.

There's nothing wrong with it, they're never going to get better if you don't let them play. If you want to play high quality games you should get an account and spend the 20 games it gets to the higher level players.
