yaaay i hit B-

i thought i'd never see the day, but with a pvp win to top it off (my worst mu by far), i've managed to break into the sexy blue ranks.

granted, i TRIED playing during korean times (morning in my case.. sort of hard), I did get beat 70-80% of the time. This makes me sort of a "false" B-, because i know that if i were to play during the korean hours, i'd be still C+, or maybe even a C.

nonetheless, im very happy.
my pvz is my best mu, and by faaaar gave me the most points. I used to lose to a simple 3 hatch muta because i didnt put down cannons or couldnt get the timing right. but i figured it out, and it has been a looot easier for me to deal with. the 5 hatch hydra + muta ht sniping has really made the mu harder, but i still managed to squeeze out wins because of a lucky dt every now and then.

my pvt has improved! finally. i partly figured out how to stop timing pushes, and my reaver harass has been getting better. although i still lose hopelessly to 200/200 hanbang, i think i'm losing mostly because i get greedy and expo without map control (ie no army!). so im definitely trying to stay on 3 base to terran's 3 base for awhile while teching to arbs, and then grabbing my 4th or 5th or something like that. anyway psi storm rocks! ^^

now my pvp. 2-3 seasons ago, iccup was so much easier. my pvp was at frigging 70% at C, and now look what happened - it's at 30-40% im guessing. I constantly go 2gate->robo for goon/reaver, but it never works. 4gate kills me. I have no idea how my opponent grabs an early nexus without even a reaver, then proceeds to rape my bum with 2 control groups of goons to my 12 goon + reaver. i think i'll actually start to dodge the mu haha. i cant play it for my life.

anyway it's been a long time coming! 2-3 seasons and i finally hit B-
arsenal won too
yaaaaaaaaaaaay

Congrats!
I, myself am having some trouble with iCC this season as well. Last season seemed a lot easier. Still trying to reach C-. 2500 points, getting there though!

GL with B now ;D

EDIT: I'm like fucking 40-55 . Kept getting knocked down to D for a couple weeks but I'm getting into mid-D+ now. So jealous :S

I can't even break out of D, and it's only been recently that I've managed to stay consistently there...I used to have to reset my stats every week so I wasn't perpetually D-...haha.

Congrats I wish I still had time to mass-game on iCCup but recently I have been just messing around in campaign due to time constraints and I am having trouble getting 1 level in before I need to call it quits.

yes but kwark gives it new weight, as opposed to the people who start playing at the end of the season, and then complain it's really hard when the next season starts.

Wow, nice, own me by leagues.

For me, my first season playing ICCUP, or 1v1 seriously for that matter, so sucking, although at least have gotten my apm to consistently over 200, but a bit to much redundancy, and my timings sucking, still keeping me at D/D+

Ladder is so much more difficult than it used to be. Back on pgt I was A+ and now I'm 50% at D rank.
