Yes, I feel pro...

Its been almost 9 months since I started iccup. i stopped around jan. into some deep training stuff. I was losing my confidence. Coincedently, my real life was getting screwed over too. I was losing confidence. I wasnt winning at all.

But today, after lasting at most 6 minutes in the Protoss Multi task trainer, I decided, ah wtvr try my luck on iCCup.I joined a room hosted by a D+ player with 2075 points. My highest ever was 1000.

I won... coming out of a disadvantage. I think the zerg was a little.. not good, but I still came out of it with a win.Either that or I had some good storms (not very many).

This is my first every iccup win. ever.

Here is the replay:
[image loading]


im going to reviewing this replay my self, so i can improve my game. one thing I remember from the game that I should have done better is to tech + macro faster. I could have reteched atleast 15 minutes earlier.

And I also have re found my love of Templars.

You've had pretty bad luck if that's the worst player you've ever played... You haven't seen me /gg

Overpool gas without speed into 1hatch muta was kinda cheesy, good you punished that newb.

Seems strange that your first win would be to a D+ player. o_o Do you usually lose to D- players?

Grats! I remember that day! I told all my friends and they didn't care.

I hope this leads to more and more wins for you!
