Yeah so the ICCUP blogs are cliche but I didn't realize how good it feels to reach a new level. My record is 11-3, and I have exactly 2000 points, with like an 8 game winning streak, mostly TvP's and PvZ's. Yay

For PvZ, I do not do the 14 nexus build, but rather a 1 gate tech, especially on Destination and I haven't lost yet!

Also, if you're looking for a clan or just wanna game, pm me or /f add me on iccup, my name is sKs)purpose.

Nice! I have a random replay of you getting owned by a reaver drop from someone, just thought I would put that out there lol.

Anyway, yeah it feels awesome to go up a rank, but if you lose your next game you will go back to D so GL!

It's from when my friend was showing me a fast reaver drop that he has been working on, where you skip dragoon range, and get a reaver with 2 zeals in a shuttle with 3 goons to defend your main incase of a counter. If you did not push into his main in this game, he should have taken his natural when his reaver was dropping you.

Btw how does ICCUP gives points, the number of points you win/lose vary

Simple:

Win vs same rank: +100
Loose vs same rank: -50
Win vs 1 step lower rank: +75
Loose vs 1 step lower rank: -67
etc

Winning on MOTW gives you +30% of normal winning points.

Amount you lose varies by letter ranking. D loses 50 for a loss, C loses 75, B loses 100 and A loses 140. That's when playing someone of the same rank as you, obviously the amount changes when they're above/below you, but I'm too lazy to do a whole list. The values are the same for -/even/+ levels within the letter ranking.

Congrats on D+!

It's more complex than this. It depends on what rank you are.

I think at C level you lose 75 for playing same rank.

B level lose 100.

But still it's very very simple, and I'd probably perfer some kind of ELO system.

nah this system is pretty legit because while you can massgame to up your rank in the early ranks, it just doesnt cut it later.

Great job at D+ dude. The only downside is when you discover you have reached your peak =[ I have been stuck at C forever. go for the C- though just like ill try for C+ ^^

I'm 22-44

But because of Stylish I went on a 3-win streak today. Bumped from 1,050ish to like 1,500 (MotW games, of course).

I might make it to D+ before the end of the season. =D

C- is full of camping terrans. Just played a 55 minute PvT on python, where the only thing the terran did was sit in his base, and move out with 5-10 tanks every 2-3 minutes. such a boring game. Eventually I just made tons of high templars and hallucinated like 10 carriers, so it made him think i had like 30 and eventually broke down his turrets/golaiths so i could move in.

fuck terrans.

you actually were one of the better terrans i played in the red ranks. i would send vultures to expos and mine then mid-late game still, to keep up your scouting. you would have won if you scouted more.

I've been on the verge of C- this season 3 times (29xx points arghh), but I got it only on my 3rd time ^^

The game was a TvP on destination where P in-base proxied me, then reaver dropped and almost killed me, but somehow I survived.. Then he defended nicely against my dropship harass, still I managed to get my 3rd up and running and macro a 180/200 2-2 army when he had 200/200 with arbs and temps. I was about to kill his just-finished 5th when he said pp and paused for like 15 minues >((( I had very little time so after numerous attempts to get his attention via chat I resumed the game and killed him.

He got back when I was shelling his gates in main and said sorry;;

lol thats my story ^^. I'm sure he would have run over me had he not left for an eternity...
